BLESSINGS OF LOVE
Betrayal of Love

After picking up Soraya's kids, they all headed to Jimmy's office.

"I'm sorry, we made this car crowded" Aletha said with a laugh.

"Just calm down, auntie, it's rare like this. In this papa car, we rarely ride this car crowded like this," said Maya who felt constricted but happy because she could feel this incident.

"We will get off at a place near the bus way, we will go to the Ambassador mall," Fuad told Aliong.

"Look down, we went through there. Later we will deliver until near the mall," said Aliong while continuing his journey.

"Oom Aliong didn't pick up Ahan?" ask Mega.

"Ehem..ehem..my son-in-law of Oom Aliong," Maya's tease.

"Hahahaha, Ahan has been home since. At school he came home at one o'clock in the afternoon, and Saturday was still half a day in," replied Aliong.

"Who's kangen with Ahan?" ask Jimmy.

"Well, because Maya's brother is tacky, so Oom Jimmy's following is tacky," Mega is upset.

"Have not been angry, here mama hugs Mega," said Soraya gave support to her youngest child.

"Mom why are her eyes so swollen?" meg asked as she looked at her mother's face.

"Obviously, not feeling well so his eyes are swollen," Soraya told a lie.

"Mama don't hurt dong".

"Yes, my mom don't get sick".

"Sir Maya, what the hell is pushing me!!".

"Let dong, my mama is my mama too...wew...!!!"

"Oh, this is your habit. Mega is on my mama's bench".

"Mega's with Oom Jimmy up front here. Usually you're on my lap with Oom," said Jimmy trying to mediate.

"No ah, let me be just like my mom" said Mega.

"Well, this is Aletha. Both of my children are virgins and still noisily. What a storm, make the head dizzy," Soraya told Aletha.

"Hahaha, my son is one man but spoiled for being too spoiled by his grandparents," Aletha also recounted her son.

"I don't even have children, I was married seven years but I haven't had children yet" Fuad said.

"Oom Jimmy moreover, is old not married either. Doesn't do the same with girls, old singles. Poor deh loooo!!!!" Maya immediately taunted her uncle.

"Hmmm, okay. Snack money stop," Jimmy chimps.

"Don't dong Oom, sorry dong. I love you, Oom Jimmy," Maya seduces her uncle.

"Sgratimin, let no longer be given pocket money with Oom. Wew...!!!" Mega replied to her brother.

Aletha and Fuad were even entertained to see Maya and Mega.

Aletha remembered that she and her sister Magenta also used to like it that way.

Fuad, meanwhile, was pleased to see him because he had never felt such a commotion since childhood because he was an only child.

Aliong stopped at a road close to Ambassador Mall.

"Stay contact well, we are still quite a long time in Jakarta," Fuad said when saying goodbye to Soraya.

"Of course, I'll send word to you as well" Soraya said, waving from inside the car.

"They're who? I just saw Oom and the aunt, this time," Maya asked her mother.

"They're family, ." Jimmy tried to answer but stopped because Soraya's hand held Jimmy's shoulder, a sign to never explain anything to his two children.

"Whose family, Oom?"tanya Mega curious.

"His family are old friends of mama's, they're out of town" Soraya said, cutting off Jimmy's remarks.

Maya and Mega glanced at each other, both understanding that her mother was hiding something to them.

But both are sure for sure Oom Jimmy if urged will definitely open his voice, just wait for the right moment.

If this business is usually compact, both of them will definitely continue to investigate what is hidden by his mother.

"Sir Aya, just take this sedan. This is rarely used as well, usually bang Rio wear this if you have to meet officials or like that," said Jimmy while showing a neatly stored car in his office garage.

"Same is also big this car, but more mending than the double cabin," said Soraya.

"The double cabin is more useful for us, because it can be used for projects. All right, this sedan I asked Agus to clean it first. Sis Aya just wait inside, in the room bang Rio," said Jimmy let Soraya into his office.

Then Soraya went into the office and it was seen that the two girls were already sitting at the Bakti table, one of the staff who had a large collection of games on his computer.

Marsela was seen busy calling then after that busy business notes and refunds from Aliong.

Soraya walked slowly into the room of her former husband first, and the cold felt on her.

"Mom, there's Soraya's mother, how about we finish this room. Agus had not been there since. I'm sorry, ma'am," Agus suddenly came to Soraya and said so.

"Why hasn't it been cleared? Are you scared, Dad? Afraid that Mario was suddenly sitting there," Soraya teased.

"Astagfirullah, don't be so dong. Poor Mr. Mario, don't be so mommy, clean," Agus looks funny if scared.

"If not fear, then what is it called? Dare to? people are still this messy and dusty a lot. Means you never cleaned this room," Soraya scolded as she held back a laugh.

"Mother likes it the same way Agus. Better to accompany Agus to work enter the goods of Mr. Rio into the box. Because boss Jimmy said this room wants to be converted into a meeting room," Agus invited Soraya to clean up Mario's work space.

"Come on!" take Soraya with a laugh.

Then Soraya began to sit in Mario's chair while feeling and imagining if her husband was still there.

The drawer of the table was opened, one by one the files he took and placed on the table.

Nothing strange and suspicious, until the bottom drawer is opened and lifted throughout the file.

There was one receipt that looked a bit strange, until Soraya read it several times.

The receipt that has been received money of eighty million rupiah for the purchase of a car brand Suzaka Mini from Asmila Maryana to Mario Maliangkay.

The 2015 Suzaka Mini is a metallic gray car named Asmila Maryana.

And that car Mario had bought a year and a half ago, it was used by him to go home to college and also to pick up the kids.

Soraya's heart burned, her face flushed red and she trembled in annoyance. Soraya had been using a small minibus car, because she asked her husband to buy her a car like that to work.

"Pap, that big car is hard to park. If the small car is easy to park, can slip it".

"Okay, I'll buy it later but if it's a used car, how?".

"Nothing, the important thing can be the road and the engine is not fussy".

"There's a car my friend wants for sale, a little car like that. Who uses women too, he even wants to change a big car because it carries a lot of files".

"Nothing, as long as the condition is still good. I'm happy even though the car is used".

Soraya recalled talking to her husband about a year ago before she left for overseas.

"Mom, can I get this file to put it in the box?"ask Agus.

Soraya was staring at the receipt sheet until Agus subconsciously called himself.

"Take it, I'm sorry I just remembered you".

"Sure mom, I like to remember him too. Mr. Mario is a very good person, every prayer also I must pray for him".

"Thank you Agus, we pray that Mr. Mario is forgiven for all his sins".

"Aamiineni".

Agus did not understand that Soraya was actually being struck by an overwhelming anger in his heart.

Marsela appears to be walking into Mario's office to meet Soraya.

"Have it been done, Gus?" ask Marsela.

"Already ma'am, I'll just keep it in the warehouse. You see, this is said to be sorted with ko Aliong," replied Agus and Marsela nodded her head to justify what Agus said.

Then Agus left the room while carrying a large box of files from Mario's drawer that will be stored in the warehouse.

"Mom Soraya? Why ma'am?" Marsela was shocked when she saw Soraya start crying.

"Bu Sela, huhuhuhu," Soraya could no longer hold back her tears.

Marsela immediately ran to her desk to pick up a box tissue, then ran back into Mario's office and locked from the inside.

"What's wrong?" ask Marsela.

"Asmila.huhuhuhu," Soraya sobbed and Marsela immediately clenched herself.

"I had expected, it would definitely be like this," Marsela suddenly said so.

"Mom Sela knew they were cheating? Why wasn't I told?" Soraya cried while looking at Marsela.

"I don't know either. Only that woman is a life insurance guy, she came to this office with Mario. And at that time Mario had an agreement with Asmila for occupational accident insurance for field employees who only contract work when there is a project only".

"Every month there are about fifty freelance construction workers, so during the project they are insured if there is an accident or death then compensated by the Insurance".

"The woman went to this office several times, she looked familiar with Mario. But I didn't think that behind it they had any other connection" Marsela explained to Soraya.

"Mom Sela knows what this is?"ask Soraya while showing the receipt earlier.

"Hmmm, yes I remember. This car was bought by Mario from his friend for Soraya's mother".

"Buy from whom dong. I swear I was disappointed and exasperated" Soraya showed and handed the receipt to Marsela.

"Geez, I don't know who Mario bought from. Only the car was ever brought to the office here, shown to me that it was a gift to Soraya's mother" Marsela said as she was.

"Mom Sela, this morning I ran out of Asmila's boarding house with her husband Asmila. And there are a lot of Mario stuff there is also a photo of the two of them posing affectionately," Soraya told me while shedding tears.

Marsela was surprised to hear Soraya's words, she could not believe the news.

"Want me to be angry, I want to feel like I'm screaming, cursing. Or if I could claw Mario's face, I'm sad and disappointed. Miss Sela, what do I do now?" Soraya sobbed while hugging Marsela.

Mega wants to pee, so she stands up leaving her brother who is enjoying a game on his computer Bakti.

Towards the restroom, of course, must pass through the table Marsela, and automatically from the table Marsela will be directly addressed to the glass room where her father used to be there.

It was seen that her mother was crying while hugging Marsela, so she came back again and whispered to Maya.

Maya stood up and looked at her father's room.

Mega was already very stifled, so she ran into the restroom.

It turns out that the door is locked, and Maya asks Marsela to open the lock, but Marsela gives a sign that Soraya has not wanted to be disturbed first.

Maya gets upset, and she leaves the office and sees Jimmy talking to Aliong and Ferry.

"Oom Jimmy!!! Oh Jimmy!!!" Maya runs towards Jimmy while looking her eyes glazed over.

"What's up, Maya?" ask Jimmy astonished.

"Mama was crying in papa's office first, but locked. Mama's with Sela's mother," Maya complains to her uncle.

Aliong's face instantly changed, and Jimmy noticed it.

"Ko Aliong, I don't think it's just a matter of seeing a doang car. What's up again? Please tell me later" whispered Jimmy to Aliong as he took his nephew to see his mother.

Aliong just took a breath, really he felt confused somehow to convey such disgrace to Jimmy.

"Mom Soraya, there's Jimmy and the kids are heading this way. What do I say?" Marsela feels lost in thought as Jimmy and Soraya's two children approach the room.

"Let's just say I'm crying because I saw a car that crashed in the river".

Marsela nodded, then opened the glass door of Mario's office.

"Mama!!! why mama?" ask her two children simultaneously while running to hug her mother.

Jimmy looked at Marsela, asking for answers to what really happened.

"Mother Soraya told me about the car that crashed into the river. And boss Jimmy had a picture of Mr. Fuad together last afternoon," Marsela tried to answer while calming her own feelings.

"Where's Oom's picture?" ask Mega while crying.

Jimmy looks dissatisfied with that answer, he is sure that there is something hidden by Soraya, Aliong and now Marsela.

"This is the picture" Jimmy said, opening his phone and showing a photo of the drowning car as his brother hitchhiked in it.

Then Jimmy explained what happened in the photo, exactly as he had heard from Fuad when he felt at the restaurant.

Maya and Mega hug each other in tears at the sight of the photo, then the two hug their mother again and the three of them cry together.

Marsela went back to her desk and she was looking for the documents two years ago, fortunately, they were still there and she was looking for the hotel notes that Mario used to stay at.

After meeting, he printed the hotel notes and folded the paper.

"Let's go home, it's almost night, let me get you guys" Jimmy told Soraya and her children.

"Ko Aliong, mbak Sela, you'll be allowed to go home tonight. Get in my car, pick it up at Mario's. We'll have to talk later" Jimmy said, giving him the key

car to Aliong.

Marsela slipped the paper she had folded into Soraya's hand, and the paper was immediately put Soraya into her bag.

In the journey Soraya and her children were more silent, each struggling and raging with sadness and pain.

Arriving at Mario's house, Jimmy immediately said goodbye because Aliong and Marsela had arrived in the back of their car.

Soraya could not say anything else, other than resigned because surely Jimmy would find out to his two friends for what had happened.

Meanwhile Kristy is preparing a room on the top floor of her restaurant.

Later tonight both his parents and his brother and sister-in-law will attend dinner together here.

"I want to take a shower, because soon they will come" Kristy told her employees.

Then he immediately entered his private room to bathe and dress up to welcome his family.

After showering and dressing up, Kristy rearranges the dining table, preparing all the dishes to be eaten with her family.

Soon there were two luxury cars parked in the courtyard of the restaurant, then down from the inside Sumargo Handoyo with his wife Ivanna Romanov Handoyo and also his eldest son Louis Orlando Handoyo.

Andreas Cheung was also dropped by his wife Stevie Cheung and his daughter Monica Cheung.

Monica is Kristy's closest niece, and she also has asthma.

Coincidentally some time ago the asthma drug was left behind in the office of Kristy's restaurant, so it was used to help Mega.

"That's a conglomerate family," whispered some visitors who knew them.

"Conglomerates like them would also eat in a simple restaurant like this, well," there are also those who comment like that.

They all when entering the restaurant, headed straight to the top floor.

"Oh, the conglomerate is different room," there are other people who are such files.

"My lovely daugther, how are you darling?" asked Mr. Sumargo Handoyo when he arrived upstairs and saw his daughter setting the dining table.

"Father!!! Mama!!!" kristy shouted as she welcomed the arrival of her parents.

Kristy hugged and kissed her father and mother, as they had not seen each other for nearly a month.

"Why do you rarely go home? So hard to live here alone ?" ivanna's mother asked her son.

"I'm sorry, Kristy, these weeks have been quite busy and there's always been a lot of business" Kristy told her mother.

"Once in a while have to go home dong, stay at home alone. Papa and mama often miss you," said Mr. Sumargo while stroking his son's head.

Kristy simply nodded her head while smiling spoiledly to her father.

"What are you cooking now, bontot?"ask Louis.

"Chinese food, at the request of Mr. Andreas Cheung," Kristy replied as she welcomed the arrival of Andreas Cheung and his older brother Stevie.

"Tumben sister Epi, usually always with a group of gambreng mothers," said Kristy while hugging her older sister.

"Hmmm, not always with them. Sometimes I'm bored, I present most if arisan or any event. If it's just an ordinary gathering, I'm lazy" said Stevie who is one of the members of Rosalinda's group.

"Wow, new bracelet" whispered Kristy as she looked at the ruby strand on Stevie's wrist.

"Ssttt, mediocre, the Arisan from Rosalinda," said Stevie, winking one eye.

"Former!!!!" suddenly there was a scream and Kristy was shocked. (The former aunt, Monica's favorite call to her mother's sister or aunt)

"Money!!!" kristy shouted happily welcoming her niece.

"How are you, baby? when did you come from Singapore?" ask Kristy.

"Just two days ago, my college took a week off so come home first. Tantan tuh who did not go home Opa," said his nephew Monica while hugging Kristy spoiled.

"Will definitely go to Opa's house, yesterday was very busy. Duh, miss you. Just get fat you," said Kristy while pinching her nephew's cheeks.

"It hurts to know..," said Monica while stroking her cheek.

"Come, sit down quickly. I was hungry" Andreas Cheung called his son and Kristy to sit on the table.

"Come on, Monica you lead the prayer before the meal" asked Ivanna's mother.

Then Monica immediately led a prayer dinner together that night.

After that, everyone enjoyed the dishes on the dining table, all handmade by Kristy and indeed very good cuisine of his youngest brother Louis and Stevie.

"Kristy, how's your relationship with Jimmy?" I asked Ivanna suddenly.

"Ohuk...uhuk!!!" kristy choked on hearing the question.

"What does mama mean?" kristy asked after drinking and dried her mouth with a tissue.

"Hmmm, said Stevie you guys are dating, is that right?" mr. Sumargo also asked.

"Oh, my God, where did Epi hear it?" kristy asked, looking upset.

"Hmmm, I was instead told directly by Rosalinda. He's Jimmy's brother-in-law" Stevie said.

"Geez, we have nothing. Jimmy and I had nothing to do, we weren't even dating me and he wasn't close at all" Kristy tried to explain to the rest of her family.

There's a chat message going into Kristy's phone, and it was accidentally read by Monica.

"When there's no relationship, this is proof there's a chat coming in from Jimmy. It was, tomorrow to my parents' house at two in the afternoon. Waiting for her daughter-in-law Liz's mother" Monica said as she grabbed her tantric phone and read it aloud.

"Wow, I've known Jimmy's house. Then why was Jimmy never taken to our house?" Ivanna's mother seemed to frown.

"Monica, please. Give me Tantan's phone back!!!".

"Mama, I just want to learn to make pancakes tomorrow. Because starting next month there are plans to bring out Manado cuisine in this restaurant," Kristy looks panicked.

"That's it, let Kristy decide who her boyfriend is. Papa can only remind you, don't get the wrong choice again," Mr. Sumargo said that and made everyone in the room silent to look at each other.

Jimmy was on the street calling his mother, he told me there was a friend who wanted to learn to make pancakes.

Jimmy asks if Regina's mother is willing or not to teach his friend.

It turns out Regina's mom is thrilled to hear it and will be spending the next day at two in the afternoon, her friend Jimmy can come to their house.

Now Jimmy and Marsela and Aliong are in a coffee shop.

Surely Jimmy asked Aliong and Marsela to tell him what really happened so that all day Soraya cried many times.

"Gue saw it another, if only just looking at the condition of the car must be sad. But something like that won't make people cry until it's like that. Tell me what's going on?" jimmy asked as he looked at Aliong and Marsela.

Sighing, then Aliong tried to explain what really happened. So did Marsela, delivering her talk with Soraya this afternoon.

"Why doesn't Soraya want me to know about this?" ask Jimmy astonished.

"Soraya is afraid of your parents to find out, later what if they are in shock," said Aliong.

"Yes right, Soraya does not want your family to be offended or even think badly," Marsela also expressed her opinion.

"Okay, I'll keep this matter meeting. But later I also have to talk to Soraya," said Jimmy, holding his head which suddenly felt dizzy.

That night Soraya called Aletha, telling her what she had found this afternoon.

"I want to share this story with Mr. Fuad as well. Later I will call him too" Soraya told Aletha.

"Mom, I'm gonna be making a group chat soon. It's all three of us, so we can pour out all our hearts" Aletha came up with the idea that they could directly communicate the three.

"Okay, I'm waiting. Thanku".

About ten minutes later, there was a group invitation from Aletha and Soraya was surprised to read the name of the group.

So did Fuad, when he received the group chat invitation, a little aghast but ended up smiling amusedly.

Aletha created a chat group whose participants were only herself, then Fuad and Soraya.

The name of the chat group is precisely what makes the shock, mixed sad but even so funny as well.

"Treasoning Love", that's the name of their group chat.
