"Well.." shouted a heavy voice from the row of cars that were stuck in traffic.
I turned to the source of the voice. His lips reviewed the smile looking at someone who kept waving his hands.
The car drove up to Ayu who was still sitting waiting for public transportation.
"Calvin, what are you doing here?" tanya Ayu was accompanied by a sweet smile.
Calvin got out of the car and sat down next to Alifa who was sweating and tired.
"My house is close to here." Pointing towards the end of the road. "What are you doing here?" ask Calvin back. Tidying up Alifa's slightly disheveled hair.
"I was from the bookstore. This is again waiting for transportation," said Ayu.
"Go home with yuk! We're in the same direction" Calvin enthusiastically asked.
Ayu shook her head for a moment. Not to refuse, but he did not want to trouble others.
"Why? Poor your son. The weather's also hot, they'll be tired." Calvin continued to persuade. Lifting up the tiny body of Alifa and carrying it to her lap.
"No, I can go home by myself." Ayu remained stupefied and rejected Calvin's invitation.
Calvin holds Alifa and takes her to the car without Ayu's consent.
"Follow, or I'll take your son home" Calvin threatened as he closed the car door.
Ayu stands up from her seat and gets into Calvin's car.
Along the way, Alifa seemed happy, after months of only being able to ride an angkot, finally he rode a luxury car. Although it does not belong to his papa, at least can feel the luxury vehicle ride. Calvin was very kind and friendly to her.
"Alifa want to buy a toy?" calvin asked looking at Alifa from the hanging reflection of the rearview.
Alifa glanced at Ayu, then lowered her head.
"Alifa don't be afraid of mama, today we will buy toys."
Calvin turned towards the shopping mall. Not caring about Ayu's face that seemed flat, for her to make Alifa happy was far more important than the woman's anger.
The car stops in front of the biggest Mall, but Ayu has not yet come down making Calvin have to persuade him again.
"Come, Yu. Poor son, we're here." Calvin leaned over, extending his hand toward Adiba who was in his arms.
"But I don't want to take care of you, Vin," Ayu denied without going down.
"I don't feel bothered, Yu. Consider it a treaty."
Seeing Alifa who looked excited made Ayu could not bear and finally he came down.
Calvin continues to follow Alifa while holding Adiba, while Ayu brings some purchased toys. In the eyes of others, they are like a romantic couple, although there is no relationship, Calvin is very attentive to the two children Ayu.
"Alifa, this is a lot."
Alifa put the cars in her place. Ayu's rebuke is a warning that must be obeyed.
"If you want to take it," said Calvin.
Alifa looked up at Calvin who was standing behind her.
"This is for Hanan's brother, Om," he said expectantly.
Calvin picks up some toys for the boy and takes them to the cashier. Ignoring Ayu who kept yelling refused his gift.
"Just after this we go home," said Ayu asserted.
This time Calvin nodded. He didn't want to make Ayu any more angry. In fact, cancel his plan to eat out, but still buy food for them.
Almost twenty minutes, Ayu and Calvin had already arrived at his contract.
Calvin was surprised to see the simple house in front of him. He did not expect that his first love was suffering.
"Don't tell me you feel sorry for me" Ayu opened the door.
They talked on the front porch of the house. Ayu did not want everyone to be prejudiced against her.
"I know you're a great woman, Yu. You can rise without anyone's help."
Calvin never forgot who the woman sitting in front of him was. Women who several times won class champions and awards various competitions can certainly pass the difficult without others.
Calvin looked at the clock in his hand.
"I'm going home first, Yu. I think it's time for Devi to come home" said Calvin.
"Greetings to your wife." Ayu stood up from her seat.
Calvin simply raised his thumb in agreement.
After Calvin's car disappears, Ayu walks into the house. He saw a little happiness on the faces of his two daughters. After being pushed for a long time by the squeezing situation, now they can feel like another child.
Tok tok tok tok
The door is knocked from outside. Ayu hurried to open it.
"You've already pu __"
Speech cut. His smile was faint as he looked at the person standing before the door.
"Who are you looking for?" ask Ayu kindly.
The woman folded her hands together as if looking down on Ayu. Glanced at the busy Adiba and Alifa in the living room.
"My name is Devi." The woman said his name.
"So you used your children to approach Calvin. Use them to get money from him."
Ayu scrunched her forehead. He did not understand the woman's words that seemed to corner him.
"What do you mean?" Ayu can't take it. Because, at least he did not intend to do that. He repeatedly refused Calvin's gifts.
"Don't pretend to be a sweet ass." Pointing to Ayu's chest. "I know, you're just using the hijab as a cover to cover up your ugliness of flirting with people's husbands."
Plaques
Ayu slapped on Devi's cheek. He did not accept being insulted and humiliated just because of something he did not do.
Devi rubbed her flushed cheeks. Staring at Ayu sharply waved the war flag.
"Originally you know, I never did what you said," Ayu explained seriously.
Devi does not accept and pushes Ayu's body to the wall. Pick up some toys that were in front of Alifa and Adiba.
"What'sthis? Calvin spent a lot of money just for the sake of your children. He's willing to drain the wallet just for you. If it wasn't for your seduction, there's no way she would have done that" Devi exclaimed loudly.
Ayu stepped forward closer. He was not afraid because he felt innocent.
"So you're Calvin's wife?" Ayu. She explains what happened, but Devi does not believe her and continues to accuse Ayu of seducing her husband.
"Come, believe it or not, that's your right. What matters is that I've been honest." Ayu gathers all the toys that Calvin bought and puts them in front of Devi.
"If you're not sincere, take it home."
Instead of taking the toy, Devi actually took Ayu's bag and unpacked all the contents. I found nothing but a few books.
Without warning, Devi pulled out a match and set it on fire, then threw it outside.
Seeing the incident, Ayu led her son to the room. Then, drive Devi out of her house in a rude manner.
O God, strengthen me from this trial.
Closing his eyes for a moment, approached his two children who were in the room.
