Adel moved out of the room with a frown, because the father could not accompany him in school activities.
"Adel."
Adel stopped his footsteps when he heard the mother's call, he turned around and looked at her.
"Tomorrow mom and grandma will accompany you, after that we go for a walk. How's it?"
The face that had been tangled turned cheerful when he heard the mother's words. "really?"
Swing nodded his head while approaching the princess. "Of course, honey. Now change your clothes and have lunch, after that you can rest."
Adel immediately nodded excitedly, he then resumed his steps to get out of the room.
Swing smilingly looking at the princess' cheerful face, the pain she had in her heart felt lessened just because of such a thing.
"Wait, Swing."
Evan held the hand of Ayun who was about to come out of the room, making the woman forced to undo her intentions.
"I beg you to forget about what happened this afternoon, it was all a complete misunderstanding."
Swing immediately turned around and looked at Evan with nanar. "Maybe it's easy for you to forget everything you think misunderstood, Mom. But not for me." He brushed off the man's hand and looked straight ahead again.
"You don't trust your own husband?"
Swing bitterly smiling. If he does not trust the husband, maybe now he has told all the problems to the in-laws. Perhaps even making a fuss in this house, he was even fighting with the trust that was within himself at the moment.
"I believe what I see and what I hear. If it's all just a misunderstanding, then tell me the truth about your relationship with that woman. You're even asking how your son is doing, aren't you?"
Evan clenched his hands tightly, somehow he had to convince the woman at this time.
"I'll wait for honesty from you."
Swinging and then stepping away from the room holding back the tears that would come back to drip, he continued walking towards the kitchen and went straight into the bathroom.
Ayun's cry broke out while inside the bathroom, she crouched behind the door while submerging her head between her legs. Do not forget to turn on the water faucet so that no one hears the sound.
"You're asking me to trust you, Mom?" Swing pressed his chest that was back pulsing pain. "How could I believe it when I see all of that in person?"
Swing raised his head with both eyes closed, really his heart was really very broken even though he did not know what really happened.
Geck, tok, tok.
"Yuna, are you inside?"
Swing gasped in shock when suddenly someone knocked on the bathroom door, and from his voice he could tell if the one who knocked was the in-law.
"Yes, Mom. In a moment I will come out," said Ayun while turning off the water faucet that is still burning.
"Yes, I think I don't know who."
Swing immediately washed his face with water to remove traces of tears that were there, although still the face would look puffy.
After feeling better, Ayun immediately came out of the bathroom and prepared to cook the dinner menu. Although his heart was not fine, but he tried to look good and do his duty as a daughter-in-law in the house.
"Aaw!"
Swing gasped in surprise when suddenly the knife in his hand sliced the middle finger, making the finger bleed.
"What's up, Yun? Why are you yelling?"
"It's okay, Mom. Just got a little knife."
Swing immediately washed his finger with water, then walked towards the closet to pick up the wound plaster.
Mery shook his head at the woman's carelessness. "Other times be careful, Yun." He who will turn around suddenly does not step foot when he sees the face as moist as Ayun.
"Attent."
Swing who was going to keep the medicine box turned his head towards the in-laws, he then gasped in shock as the woman held onto her chin.
"W-What's up, Mom?"
"What's wrong with your face, you've been crying?"
Swing immediately shook his head and removed the hand of the in-law from his face.
"No, Ma. I had sliced an onion, it was like this" Ayun replied. Of course he had to lie to that woman.
Mery was silent while narrowing his eyes. Is Ayun first time slicing onions? It's so weird.
"You've been slicing onions for years, Yun. Even every day that's your job. Do you think you can lie to me?"
Swing silently confused. What her in-laws said was indeed true, even she could slice an onion with her eyes closed. Why is he getting hurt now?
"It turns out that my body is jealous of what my heart is feeling right now, that's why she also wants to get hurt." Swing sighed harshly.
"Why are you quiet, Yun?"
Mery held Ayun's arm furiously. Instead of answering what he asked, the woman daydreamed.
"I-i"
"Can we talk to you for a second, ma'am?"
Suddenly Evan came to the place making Ayun speech forced to stop, while Mery immediately nodded her head and followed the steps of the son to talk about something.
Ayun stared bitterly at their departure, could Evan be afraid if he complained all of that to his in-laws?
Not wanting to take a headache, Ayun immediately continued her cooking event that had been delayed.

The next day, Ayun, Adel, and also Mery left for school to attend the event that was being held. There were many parents of students present, and participated in enlivening the event.
For a moment Ayun forgot about the problems that were going on in her household, even last night she chose to sleep with Adel because she was reluctant to talk to her husband.
At exactly 2pm, the event was already finished. Everyone was allowed to leave the place, including Ayun and the others.
"I want some ice cream, Mom. Come on, let's go to that newly opened shop!"
