"Where are we going?" Sela asked on the sidelines following Hendri from behind.
Hendri was silent, not intending at all to answer the question of the brash woman who had ruined her household. He only focused on the path he went through, in fact he was also confused about where to go. For now, the mother also definitely does not want to accept him to stay at home.
"As I cape, let's take a break first." Sela complained, making Hendri suddenly stop his steps, he turned around and stared intently at Sela. The woman folded her lips in, afraid to return the gaze of Hendri's eyes that were like he was about to pounce on her.
"Sorry, but I'm really tired." Sela said honestly, then looked down. He said that because he was very tired, especially Hendri asked him to bring two large bags owned by Hendri and himself. While the man was just silent and continued to walk without caring about his distress.
"I'm not telling you to follow me, if you want to go please. Leave me alone lady ja*lang." Ketus Hendri, even now he could throw the words to Sela. Sela gulped her saliva, heard Hendri's insults against her. But love made him weak, he accepted it in words like that, let it be. The important thing is that she can stay with her husband.
"I'm coming with you." Say Sela slowly.
"Heuh, great. I don't have to hire a maid later."

Two days later, Kalisa was still deeply saddened. Not only him, but also Reyhan who has understood that now Hendri has gone from home. Hendri's mother deliberately stayed over, so that Kalisa did not feel alone, and quickly rose from his slump. Even he took care of all May's needs, and let Kalisa focus on giving understanding to Reyhan.
Kalisa sat on the side of his son's bed, observing Reyhan who now had the corner of his eyes always wet. He knew for the first time it would be difficult, but in the future he was sure his small family could. Can stand firm without the figure of a husband and the figure of a father.
"Rey," call Kalisa, he holds her son's cheek, and then rubs it affectionately.
"Sda..." Reyhan Whining. He looked at the face of Kalisa who tried to smile in order to be strong together. The two boys' eyes were already glazed over, with a single blink of an eye, then the tears would fall down his cheeks.
"Why? Why won't Rey eat? Does Rey want to see you sad?" Kalisa asked, he was persuading now, from what he knew from his former in-laws, Reyhan refused to eat breakfast. Not even reluctant to go to school.
Reyhan shook his head, a sign he didn't want to see his mother sad. But undeniably, the departure of his father is something that makes the holy heart like dew hurt.
"Too so let's have breakfast. From yesterday Nda noticed Rey was hard to eat. Does Rey want to get sick?" Ask Kalisa again, and Reyhan replies with a sledgehammer. Kalisa smiled, then grabbed the tiny hand of her little angel. Pecking it deep, draining such great affection. From now on, his duties increase, in addition to being a mother, he must also be a father figure for his two children.
"It's so dear to Rey, to May. So please nda. Don't make it sad, baby." Kalisa. Reyhan immediately hugged his mother's body tightly.
"Let's eat, Nda bribe." Kalisa said, this time Reyhan nodded, then Kalisa asked Reyhan to get up from the bed, holding the hands of the handsome boy to the dining table. And there was a mother who was feeding her little daughter, May.

Finished taking Reyhan to school, Kalisa tried to get rid of the saturated mind by going to the store. While I was ready to go home before Kalisa drove Reyhan.
"Assalamualaikum Tik?" Kalisa said as soon as he arrived at his shop.
Atikah who was cleaning up the items immediately stopped her activity, then answered her boss's greetings.
"Waalaikumussalam. Craft cape-cape into the store. Why not take a break at home?" Tika asked, she was so concerned about what happened to her boss. Even she as a fellow woman also felt pain, even if just hearing the story. Because the issue of Kalisa's divorce has penetrated everywhere. Bias the mouth of the neighbor, just one second post that nyinyir already sekampung.
Kalisa smiled, pleased his employees also attention to him, "No papa Tik, also at home." Kalisa replies and then releases his hand on May. The little girl ran inside. It will surely be with his toys.
Tika mangosteen then returned Kalisa's smile, really a woman who is tough in her mind.
"Yaudah Tik I went in first yeah." Pamit Kalisa and start to step, but before really entering Tika again call her.
"Eh, don't you want to drink? I'll make it later." Tika Tawar, but answered by Kalisa. He does not want to trouble others, if he wants to drink he can take it himself.
"Astri?" Kalisa Gumam.
Not yet had time to call her back, Astri again made a call.
"Hallo, why As?" Ask Kalisa.
"Lo where's Kal?" Instead of answering Astri asked back.
"I'm at the store, if there's any need to come here. My customers are a lot of people." Kalisa said then agreed by Astri. Eventually the call was interrupted with an agreement that Astri would follow Kalisa to the store.
Fifteen minutes is enough for an Astri to arrive at his best friend's shop. He rode a new matic bike in his car last month. He took off his helmet, put it in the rearview mirror and walked up to Kalisa who was sitting sweetly in front of his shop.
"Assalamualaikum expert of heaven." Astri.
"Vaalaikumussalam. Aamiin's." Reply Kalisa, then pull one seat asking Astri to sit there. Astri smiled widely, feeling calm because Kalisa had now separated from Hendri. That means one plan has worked, one plan left. That makes Kalisa can unite with Rama. Yes, the man is very appropriate for a woman named Kalisa according to him.
"What are you after, your own smiles?" Kalisa asked while checking Astri's body temperature by sticking his hand on the forehead of the beautiful woman.
Astri pulls Kalisa's hand from his forehead.
"Ish, do I get sick if Kal gets checked all over." Lady Astri. He folded his hands up as if annoyed.
But Kalisa just laughed. Then the head-scalks.
Then the next second, Kalisa pampit to take a drink first, this time he did not make it, he only took orange juice that was already in the bottle packaging stored in the refrigerator.
Astri receives the drink from Kalisa's hand. He sipped it quickly because he was very thirsty.
Kalisa sat back, they were both quietly confused about what to discuss.
"Kl." Call Astri. And Kalisa only has hemm ria.
"Honestly, I'm sorry about everything that's happened in your household. But, I also did not miss, if I like, I'm happy you finally can escape from Hendri. I doain well, hope you dapet better than him." Astri said sincerely. Make Kalisa re-review his sweet smile. The corner of his heart was still painful, but there was another corner that was relieved.
"I haven't thought that far as As. I think I still want to linger on my own until this wound heals." Reply Kalisa.
Astri understood, he rubbed his best friend's arm.
"Kal, sometimes we are afraid to start again. But believe me, if the pain wants to heal soon, then the antidote is needed."
"I know As. But I don't know when I'll be able to take the antidote. Obviously, right now I just want to make my kids happy first. Reawakening their spirits, reassuring May and Reyhan that we'll be fine without him." Kalisa explained, the corner of his eye again condensed. Astri who realized that immediately approached and hugged Kalisa. Tell the woman that she's next to him. He was ready to be the best listener for his best friend when he complained.
"When do you want to tell bokap same nyokap lo Kal?" Astri asked after breaking the hug.
Kalisa shook his head, he was confused about where to tell. Both of his parents would be in shock. Especially his father, because before marrying Hendri, he had several times reminded Kalisa not to continue his relationship, because the father had prepared his choice of man. His distant friend's son.
"I don't know As, but I hope. They won't be disappointed with my decision."
Dad, Mum. Forgive Kalisa.....
