My cousin Maduku
Chapter 51

Arrive at the Vip room where Septia is being treated.

"Assalamualaik." Riska opened the door to the Vip room.

After opening the door, Riska found her mother and Abian who had been sitting on the sofa provided by the hospital.

"Vaalaikumsalam. Here in!" Septia greeted her friend with a weak voice.

Riska immediately hugged her best friend and asked about Septia's current condition. The woman then told me the chronology of how she got to the hospital.

Hearing the testimony of Septia with her husband, Riska was increasingly furious Septia. How not, his best friend is indeed the king of sambal. It is not said to eat meatballs if the sauce is not red by sambal.

"Eat it don't eat spicy food!" Riska scolded Septia. Unfortunately, only in response to the grin of a horse by his wife Reza.

After that, the five of them got into a conversation. Although Ratih is the only old man there, but not cuekin by the others. Especially by Abian, the man always involved his mother Riska in his chat. Unknowingly, the clock is over. Riska, Ratih and Abian also said goodbye before being expelled by security officers there.

Somewhere else.

"Assalamualaikum," the sound of the greeting and the doorknob in the swivel made the woman turn to the source of the voice.

"Cock still a lot of his wipes, Mas. Are you selling or just sitting around outside?" Danang who was tired after twelve hours of selling, now must be welcomed the nagging wife.

Siska who had just eaten dinner immediately threw the rice wrap in any direction to express her frustration to her husband who came home not carrying money.

"I've been going around, honey. Everyone has bought it but no one wants to buy it. Everyone says they have, and then I have to what else?." With a sad face and a sore stomach Danang answered his wife's question.

"Darling, baby don't have to call baby. If it's real you can't support me. Because you don't bring money, so eat potluck, rice and salt!" Siska passed from before her husband who could only gawk.

"Salt and rice?." Danang repeated Siska's words in his heart. For a lifetime he never tasted food with rice and salt alone. Since childhood despite his family life mediocre, he always ate there side dishes and vegetables. Especially when with Riska, even though he was unemployed and never gave his wife a living, but he always ate well.

Recalling Riska's name, her eyes suddenly turned red. Regrets are invoked without being invited.

"I'm sorry Riska! i'm sorry!." Danang closed his eyes as all his foul behavior towards Riska flashed across his head.

'If I could turn back time, I never wanted to hurt you. I will never betray you, Riska. Like there's still a second chance. I want to fix everything, I want to come back to you and change my whole behavior, Ris. I won't waste you anymore.' In silence, Danang monologues himself.

"Why silence? sorry to be married to me? I am the same. So don't think you're the only one who's tormented in this marriage." Siska nagged like a less sane person.

Is she amnesiac or insane or what? Wasn't she the one who forced Danang to marry her, but it was as if she was forced to marry the husband of her cousin's sister.

"Then let's get divorced. Remember, if you set me up and make me like this. Had you not done that, my household with Riska would not have been a mess and it would still be fine, Siska."

Hearing the word divorce, Siska suddenly shrunk. Her content has now reached the age of 8 months, and in 1 month she will be born. What would happen if she was born without a husband. People will definitely scorn and insult her more because she was divorced while pregnant.

Cousin Riska inevitably ended up apologizing to her husband.

"I'm sorry, Mom. A lot of problems caused me to lose control. Please don't divorce me, Mom. I beg. I love you and love you."

Siska grabbed the back of her husband's hand, then kissed him with reverence. Danang looked at his wife's suddenly overcast face, and the man burst into tears with Siska's apology. Danang understood the attitude of his wife who was suddenly rude and brash, even though it was just Siska's acting so as not to be divorced by Danang.

Siska's phone rings shortly. Signs that a message has come in. Soon the woman took from her pants pocket.

The message that just entered Siska's cellphone made limp all the joints that are now Danang's wife.

"How can it be?" he said unknowingly.

"How can what?" asked Danang, not understanding. Siska turned towards the man who became her husband.

"Bu-nothing, Mom. Just a prankster. I'm tired I'm going to sleep, I'm going to rest first.' Mas." Without hearing Danang's reply, Siska passed away leaving Danang confused to see his wife's sudden strange behavior.

.

Entering the room, Siska locked her room. He paced back and forth there, his mind fixed on the message sent by an unknown number, the message contained a photo of his past crimes. Siska jingling in the room.

'Why can there be a photo of him anyway?.'

'What is that guy? the one who claimed to be Riska's future husband?.' thought Siska.

'Yes only he seems to know my secret.'

Siska could not make a sound, afraid her husband Danang heard her speech.

Then Siska tried to call the unknown number but was not picked up. Then decided to send a reply message.

[Who are you? What do you want?.]

I got a reply message from that number.

[I just want to see your destruction. Turn yourself in to the police or.].

[Or what?] Siska was worried about the person who sent the message.

[Or I'll send this photo directly to Riska, so that she herself will report you to the police!]

Neither option is good, Siska does not want to end up in jail.

[I beg you not to do that, I will do whatever you want. As long as you don't report me to the police, I'm pregnant, pity my son if I have to give birth in prison.]

[Hahaha it turns out that your guts are cemen as well well well, unlike when you try to kill the fetus in the womb Riska even you also pay the doctor to fake Riska's medical record, which is not the case, so that they believe that the fetus in the womb Riska died of fatigue, even though you have given something to the Riska drink. Women have no heart.]

Deg.

Siska's face paled reading the message.
