WIDOW BY WIFE
CHAPTER 6. FEELING CLUMSY_MIDJ

Not wanting to give up, Erlita tried to call her husband's mobile number. However, only the voice of the operator is heard indicating that the number is indeed completely inactive.

"Arggghhhh.....!"Erlita groaned in frustration. A pair of Erlita's eyes again blurred. accompanied by a heart that is getting longer and more timid.

"Astaghfirullahaladhim's chat. Many times Erlita said Istighfar while rubbing the chest that felt smoldering. Many times Erlita took a deep breath and exhaled. Slowly to reduce the tightness that so squeezes the chest.

Until finally, the voice of Azan was heard again. Marking the time to perform the prayer.

With a gontai step, Erlita walked to the bathroom to get back to fetching water. Erlita was afraid that unknowingly there was something that canceled the ablution earlier. After that Erlita returned to perform isha prayers.

Finish praying isya, Erlita did not immediately move. Erlita signifies the hand praying to the almighty. Erlita also asked for strength for anything that would befall her after this. Erlita gave all to God the owner of life.

Finish praying, and praying. Erlita's heart was a little calm. Erlita took off her face and folded it back after that Erlita climbed the bed and sat leaning on the headboard. Erlita heard the lyrics of the clockwork moving felt so. It's only eight o'clock, I don't know how much longer she'll have to wait for her husband's return. I can't wait to ask you about all this.

It never occurred to him if the man who was with him to become his priest was truly betrayed. She always tried to convince herself of her husband's loyalty, especially her husband always gave reasonable reasons.

Although in these last months, Erlita did catch some awkwardness from her attitude.

"Yes lately John has come home early in the morning. It used to be like that, but when the birth of his second son had begun to change. But a few months later John returned home often in the morning.

Erlita also often saw John more busy with his phone. Usually, if at home, he rarely messes with his privacy object. Erlita's mind suddenly recalled the events of a few months ago either when exactly Erlita forgot.

When Erlita was putting dirty clothes in the bucket, Suddenly she smelled a woman's perfume coming from her husband's clothes. Erlita had sniffed the jacket, several times to convince herself that Indra's kiss was not wrong.

And at that time, convinced that the aroma that came out was a woman's perfume. One thing is for sure, the perfume is not hers.

when Erlita asked John, he answered.

"Maybe it's the passenger perfume he always delivers to the cafe dimly lit.

although Erlita felt awkward, but at that time Erlita immediately believed it. Many times Erlita found awkwardness, but because she did not have strong evidence made her unable to do anything.

Erlita looked at her two sons and squeezed the bedsheet quite firmly. Channeling pain that so pierced the chest.

Time to go night. Even the hour hand has shown to the number 2 in the morning. But John did not come home until Erlita's chest again seemed hit so great. John's habit of not coming home at night until the morning makes Erlita try to convince herself. Moreover, John always has a reason to look for passengers until the morning.

John's shadow is alone with another woman, and I don't know what the two are doing. "Ah what else would a pair of women and adult men do if not just call it Erlita could not. It's too painful."

again Erlita stared at the innocent faces of her two sons. Too tired to think and the pain so deep that Erlita could never lend her eyes. Right at 05:00 am the sound of a motorized rickshaw that Erlita believed belonged to her husband entered the courtyard of the house.

The clattering of footsteps began to sound as the thump in Erlita's chest grew stronger. And a few seconds later the door opened.

"Darling you're awake? ask John as soon as his foot enters the house. Very noticeable his face looks clumsy mixed with groggy to see Erlita who was still sitting glued to the plastic chair waiting for his return. How not the time has shown at 05.00 am.

No answer came out of Erlita's mouth. Erlita just looked sharply at him, making him look even more clumsy and misbehaving.

Erlita's eyes did not change at all from the man who wore a black jacket, researching suspicious things. Which might further strengthen the reason for his delay home in the morning. But John's habit of going home early makes him have no reason to object to the reason of going home early.

Being stared at in such a way by Erlita seemed to make John even more uncomfortable. Seen from his increasingly clumsy attitude that is wrong behavior. Although a moment later a small smile that seemed forced offended from his lips while stepping closer towards Erlita.

"You why dear Jhon approached after opening the jacket he used to use if working to find passengers. then he stood right in front of Erlita. After he crouched down to kiss the account of Erlita who was still sitting on the chair.

"You crying? he returned to his voice after realizing that Erlita's pair of eyes were puffy and flushed. "I'm sorry that Mas had no passengers at all. And there will be no shopping money that I will love you if I don't continue to look for early morning passengers."

"So there was my passenger a woman of the night, to take me straight to a cafe and she asked me to wait across the Cafe until she finished work . And the pay is also good" said John while reaching into his wallet giving money to shop for Erlita.

It feels like Erlita showed video footage of evidence of her husband's behavior. But again Erlita undoes her intentions.

"Why are you looking at me like that?

Erlita shook her head choosing to shut up before she directly found out.

"No, it's just that my coworkers used to come here looking for a mas. He said In his cousin's office there's a job opening. If Mas want, can try deh rather than continue to have to be a motorized rickshawman whose income does not settle. Moreover, mas often so go home early in the morning like that health also needs to be maintained" said Erlita hope her husband agreed what offered by her friend.

If her husband would have worked in the same office as Pian's cousin, then John's reason for going home late at night or coming home early would no longer exist. Seen Jhon thought, I will think first.

Why should you think about it first Mas. mumpung There is a chance, Why not?" erlita asked her husband to accept the job offer."
