Widows Complex
60.

1 Week had passed from Aluna's departure. Imelda was still saddened by Aluna's departure, often alone in Aluna's room. Hugging a beloved teddy, and a picture frame of Aluna while celebrating her 3rd birthday.

The son, Maya and Rihana could do nothing more. The three of them could only stand at the door, watching Imelda fall asleep on Aluna's 4-foot bed.

“The fate is indeed sad,” cetus Maya muttered.

“Everything he cares about slowly goes away leaving him. The closest person he considered could be a protector and confide in, it turned out to be a traitor and a great enemy,” added Rihana lirih.

“I will not let it happen again to him,” said Putra quickly.

Maya and Rihana turn the direction of the establishment facing the Son.

“Please promise not to betray her,” says Maya wants to give a promise to Putra.

“I can't promise. But, I make sure bad things and a betrayal I will not do behind Imelda,” said the Son refused the promise.

“The new widow has been arrested. Om who has a bad plan for you has also been buried properly. Aunty and all widows here hope after this there will be no more big problems to you,” said Rihana as well as giving prayers.

“Amiin,” sahut Putra guarantees.

“Because we still have to leave for the office immediately. Please take care and protect Imelda, yes,”, Maya said.

“Take it easy. Thank you for taking the time to see Imelda,” thank you Son slightly bent his body.

“Here we are family. So our actions are common,” said Maya.

Rihana patted the Son's shoulder. “We go,” farewell Rihana once again.

The son escorted Maya and Rihana to the terrace of the house. As he turned around, he saw a woman in black clothes standing across the street, looking at him. The woman is Jenni, the wife of the late Doni.

The son stepped down the steps of the porch of the house, walking towards Jenni still standing there.

“Why just stand here?” ask the curious son.

“I just want to see if Imelda is okay inside?” sahut Jenni asked at once.

“Since Aluna's departure, Imelda's condition is bad. Imelda is still often alone in Aluna's room,” said Putra told.

Jenni slightly bowed. “Imply sorry for all the mistakes of my late husband. I did not expect that the man would do such a bad thing to his nephew's family,” sorry Jenni with her gentle voice.

“I think Imelda has forgiven the deeds of her late aunt husband,” said Putra.

“Thank God. Then I'll go home. Give my regards to Imelda,” Jenni's message before stepping away.

“Good, I'll tell you later,” said Putra.

Jenni steps into her car, and leaves Imelda's home complex.

The son again stepped inside the house, made a glass of warm tea for Imelda and gave it to her.

“Honey, wake up and drink this warm tea first,” said the polite son, he sat himself on the edge of the bed, his right hand holding a glass filled with warm tea.

Imelda did not answer, her lips instead let out a soft crying sound. The son immediately placed a glass of tea on the lamp table, and laid his body behind Imelda while hugging her.

“I know you are devastated about Aluna's departure. But what about Aluna there. I think the little girl has calmed down and met her birth mother,” said Putra telling, her hand stroked the top of Imelda's head, and put her chin there.

“Honey, if you cry like this. You look like a woman who makes it difficult for Aluna to meet her real mother. He should have been able to laugh and play there with his mother, when he saw you continue to cry here, Aluna must have been sad from there. And happiness to play with his mother will be delayed,” continued Putra trying to persuade Imelda.

Feeling the Son's speech has a point. Imelda's cry slowly subsided, she turned her sleeping position so faced each other with the Son, her head looked up, staring at the calm and relaxed face of the Son.

“Did Aluna really meet her birth mother?” ask Imelda to make sure.

“Means as long as I keep crying, Aluna won't calm down playing with her real mother there. If true like that, I will try not to cry and mourn the departure of Aluna,” said Imelda Lirih.

“If you still want to cry, then cry. No one will ban it, as long as all the crying you let out will ease your sadness!”

Imelda hugged the Son very tightly, the Son replied with a warm smile and hug. So strong cries just came out of Imelda's lips.

“Aluna, Aluna. May you calm down there, dear. Be happy with your birth mother in heaven!” sobs of Imelda.

30 Minutes passed. Imelda's cry slowly subsided, her hands slowly releasing her embrace from the Son's body.

“Are you calm?” ask Putra.

Imelda nodded, her hands immediately wiped the tears on her face, and the sobbing sounds still continued to be heard.

Tired of lying down, the Son helped Imelda sit down.

“Let your body refreshed. How if we take a shower together, I will help you rub your back, and massage your body so that it can be more relaxed and calm,” suggested the Son.

Imelda nodded.

The son came down from the bed, with a single movement he carried the light body of Imelda. “Come! Let's take a shower!” the cry of the Son made Imelda laugh.

In the living room of Jenni's residence.

Jenni kept staring at the face full of regret Darwin.

“Why does Mama keep looking at me like that?” ask Darwin not to like it.

“Are you now regretting what you did?” Jenni asked back.

“Of course,” says Darwin lowered his tone.

“Do you want to repeat all these bad deeds one day?” ask Jenni back.

“I don't think so, because I've found a woman who fits me,” Darwin said.

“Who?”

“That woman is a Village girl whom I have taken her chastity by lying. He is currently living in a small contract,” Darwin said.

Feeling tired and dizzy to see Darwin's evil behavior. Jenni repeatedly let out a long sigh, massaging her temples.

“Married the girl. But, don't expect Mama to come at your wedding!” jenni gave the order.

“The plan is that I will indeed marry the girl,” Darwin said. He moved from his seat, “Thank you for listening to my request. I'm leaving, Ma. Hopefully Mama will find the location of Mama's own happiness later,” added Darwin gave the best prayer for Jenni.

“Mama will send you money for your wedding expenses. Lamar, make a party, and give a decent house to my son-in-law,” Jenni said as she stared at Darwin's departure.

“Good!” let Darwin continue to move.
