The Wife You Divorced
Fall down

This afternoon, Aluna seemed fun playing in the park with her mother and future father. Since there was Aluna at home, Zaki often took Aluna and Mila for a walk. Even almost every weekend they go out for a walk whether it's to the mall, to the top, to the beach, to the zoo, or watching.

It all makes Aluna forget about Adnan's father. After living with Mila, Aluna never questioned her father again.

Zaki and Mila had been staring at Aluna from a distance. Aluna seemed to be busy practicing bicycles in the park along with her friends.

"Aluna is very happy, dear as it seems," said Zaki.

"Yes Mas. He never asked his grandmother or father again. Looks like he's staying with us. And that's what I've been hoping for all this time. Mas Adnan has handed over Aluna, without me having to be tired of seizing custody of Aluna from the hands of Mas Adnan," said Mila at length.

"I'm also happy Mil, seeing your son happy. Because I already love your son. I've considered your son like my own son."

Mila smile.

"Thank you, Mom. You already want to accept Aluna to be your child. Aluna seems to have found her father in you. And Aluna is also like finding her grandmother from inside the Holy Mother. So until now, he never asked again about his father and grandmother."

"Oh.." Aluna's shout surprised Mila and Zaki who were busy chatting.

Zaki and Mila's gaze, fixed on Aluna who had fallen from her bicycle.

"Yes my. Aluna.." exclaimed Mila.

Mila and Zaki hurriedly approached Aluna to help her.

Huhuhuhu...

Aluna's cry broke, as she felt pain in her leg.

"Sick Mama..huhuhuhu..."

"What's sick, son? did your leg sprain?" Zaki seemed worried about Aluna's condition.

Without taking long, Zaki immediately checked into Aluna's two legs and into her two hands. Zaki and Mila are surprised to see that Aluna's knees bleed a lot.

"Oh my goodness Aluna. You're bleeding, son," said Mila in a panic.

"Mil, we need to get Aluna to the doctor. So that the wound will be treated and bandaged," Zaki said, looking worried.

"Mas, we treat ourselves at home."

"Mil, don't like to underestimate things like this. I'm afraid Aluna's knee will be infected."

"Yes is Mas. Let's get Aluna to the doctor."

"Yes." Yeah."

Without thinking much, Zaki lifts Aluna's body and takes her into the car. Zaki and Mila then get in the car. After that, they left the park.

Arriving in front of the doctor's house, Zaki and Mila bring Aluna down from the car. They then entered a small clinic owned by Dr. Ilham, a general practitioner subscribed to the Zaki family.

"How's Doc, my son's Aluna's condition?" mila asked as Doctor Ilham examined Aluna's injuries.

Doctor Ilham looked at Zaki and Mila fixedly. He smiled at Zaki and Mila.

"Aluna's condition is okay. It's just a minor wound. There's nothing to worry about. I will bandage Aluna's wounds first. Later I will give Aluna medicine to drink and ointment to smear the wounds of Aluna," explained Dr. Ilham.

After Ilham's doctor examined Aluna and bandaged her wounds, Ilham's doctor then prescribed Aluna medicine.

"yes Doc. Thank you very much Doc" said Mila.

The doctor looked at Aluna.

"Beautiful child, the medicine will be spent. The doctor has bandaged your wounds, later after reaching home, the ointment is applied yes, to the injured part," said Dr. Ilham to Aluna.

Aluna just nodded her head.

"Yes Doc" said Aluna later.

"Then, we'll excuse you Doc" Zaki said before leaving Doctor Ilham's room.

"Yes please."

After checking Aluna to the doctor, Zaki and Mila drive their car back home at once, stopping by the park to take Aluna's bike home.

"Eat him, if you play the bike, be careful Aluna. So like this, right," said Mila while rubbing Aluna's long hair.

"So I hit a small rock, because I couldn't keep my balance, so I fell down" explained Aluna.

"Eat him next time, if you play the bike carefully and must always be vigilant" said Zaki.

"yes Om. I promise, I'll be careful again if you play on a bike" said Aluna.

Tonight, Monika still looked sullen in the dining room. Since then, he was still staring at the food on the dining table.

"There's no Sulis, it feels so empty like this. I had to share the housework with Mas Adnan, so tired," grumbled Monika in her solitude.

Since Adnan became unemployed, Adnan did all the housework, such as sweeping, mopping, cooking, washing, and other work.

Adnan still did not have the heart to tell his mother to do homework. Because Ms. Retno is still sick, and she is still taking medication.

Adnan didn't want anything else to happen to his mother. He often told Monika to help him sweep, mop, wash or cook.

Adnan came down from the top floor and walked towards the dining room. He was shocked when he saw his wife looking glum. Already from yesterday, Monika looked sad. Now she must accept her fate of having an unemployed husband.

Poor my wife, ever since Sulis left, Monika has been so moody like this. I'm sure it's all because of my bad cooking. My wife is not eating. But I also do not have the money to buy a good side dish outside, inner Adnan.

Adnan walked over to his wife. He sat down near Monica.

"Honey, why is the food only seen?" ask Adnan.

Monika looked at her husband sharply.

"How just not to be seen, your cooking is not good, there is no taste to know. Anyway, cook only instant noodles, fried rice, egg omelet, fried tempe tofu doang. There is no other menu what," said Monika annoyed.

"Darling, I know. I'm a guy, told to cook. Yeah that's how it feels. I want to tell Mom, I don't have to, baby. Because mom is still sick. What if he's exhausted and knocked again."

Monika silence. It feels free for now, she talks to her husband. Because Adnan now has never been sensitive to the feelings of his wife.

"It should be, you're the one cooking Mon. Surely your cooking is much better than my cooking" said Adnan.

"I have to cook everything. I also help you every day, mopping, washing dishes. My cooking is also not as good as mother and Sister Sulis' cooking."
