Dara ran towards the parking lot and directly into the car and slammed the door tightly making Mr. Jono to his heart in shock.
"Quick the road, sir. I want to go home" Dara ordered firmly. Mr. Jono nodded and immediately drove the car away from the cafe.
Either got the courage from where he suddenly hit Michelia. Dara who was so young and inexperienced in the ins and outs of dirty games of unscrupulous humans was immediately ignited emotions when she heard the conversation earlier. Instantly his mind darkened and without a second thought he spouted his words while yelling at Michelia and her mother.
Is Dara not afraid? Of course he felt afraid, even his body was trembling at this moment because the one he challenged earlier was two mature women.
Her fear culminates when she imagines herself being separated from her two most beloved precious things. His chest cavity felt tight and without being told a clear grain was shed from the corner of his eyes soaked his cheek.
Dara inhaled as much air as possible while occasionally banging her chest that increasingly felt tight. His heart screamed and his tears grew more and more intense, blowing away the suffocating feeling that was shackling him at this moment.
Honestly, Dara was confused and worried, how to convey the things she heard today to Wira. He intends to tell about all of Michelia's rottenness and is sure the Wira will trust him more.
However, would her husband also believe if he exposed all of Ratih's evil plans that wanted to separate them? Because after all Ratih is the birth mother of Wira. What if she was accused of fabricating and vilifying her mother-in-law in front of her husband because Dara had no concrete evidence that could strengthen her other than her own hearing.

The day is getting darker. The sky tonight is smiling happily because the moon and stars can meet in the same expanse simultaneously bathed in light. Flickering flirtatious stars as if deliberately tempting, so that the moon does not hesitate to glow and show its light to expel the pitch.
Since arriving home, Wira caught Dara's face that looks moody and dreamy as usual. Even now, in the midst of activities Dara combing her hair in front of the dresser, her hand movements stopped with a blank look as if her mind was wandering.
"Mas, let's just getin'," said Dara, with a small chuckle forcing her smile amid the turmoil that hit her heart.
Wira reverses Dara's sitting position so that being faced with her, she crouches down using one knee resting on the floor to align her body with her wife while Dara is still sitting on her dresser chair
"Is today the activities of the campus exhausting? or is the task too much? I have noticed that you have been daydreaming a lot. What's up, honey?" asked the Hero who then wrapped his arms around his wife's waist.
"L-yes, that's because three more days of midterms will be held." Dara's looking for an excuse. Though he was worried about how to tell about his findings this afternoon which continues to disturb his mind.
"Don't be too stressed, it's not good for your health and that of our baby. I'm sure you can do it in the exam. If it feels too heavy, how about applying for college leave during your pregnancy?" Wira suggested so because she was worried that Dara was too tired.
"Ah, no need to. My pregnancy was not a barrier to my daily activities. I'm just thinking a little bit about the test later. So don't worry" said Dara while cupping both sides of her husband's handsome face.
"Hmm. let's get some rest. It's ten o'clock, it's not good for pregnant women to sleep too late." The hero sighed Dara into his embrace and took her to bed.
They lay. Dara hugged her husband tightly like she was afraid of losing. The hero felt a bit strange and caught the unusual tone of Dara's words earlier. He lifted his chin until their eyes were rubbed and dived into the iris of the beautiful eye in front of him.
The hero searched inside and found that Dara was hiding something from her. He wanted to ask further, but then undo it. He would wait until his wife told him the truth.
"Sleep, baby." The hero kisses the friendly Dara's forehead then drowns her into her soothing warm embrace.
