...These soft droplets, have long since not garnished the eyes. Eyes that can look at the beautiful world, although he is sometimes not as beautiful as the word pearl-plated. In a soul fragment that felt empty, my cries broke....

Anger can still be easily relieved. But if the disappointment that hits the heart, a million words of forgiveness will not be able to pass it. How many broken relationships begin with disappointment, dishonesty and insensitivity? Uncounted.
The woman who was struck by anxiety, carrying herself and her firstborn left a magnificent dwelling without a clear direction of purpose. At the moment he needed a little time to calm down as well as digest the problem at hand.
"Where are we going, Mommy?" asked Ezio with half-circumcised eyes. The dreamy Rona was aghast at the question of her son.
Rona thought about it, and finally decided to take Ezio to spend the night at his grandmother's house, Maria. "We've been to the house of oma, baby, it's been a long time since we've visited the oma Maria."
"But why go out at night? Why bring so many clothes? Why not get daddy?" Ezio strafed Rona with questions. Although Ezio's age is still very small, but he has begun to be critical and sensitive to the situation.
Rona waver, several times exhaled while looking for the right answer to the question posed by the child.
"Em. kan daddy busy continue, instead daddy asked Mommy to invite Ezio to vacation home ora Maria," said Rona lying.
"Oh so is that so Mommy?" sahut Ezio cheerful. "Horay... Ezio to the house of the Maria oma. Ezio miss oma Maria...."
"Yes dear..," replied Rona. "Thank God you're happy." Rona leaned her back and continued her imaginary world.
An hour later,
Maria, who was told that her granddaughter was coming, waited impatiently in front of the terrace. He paced back and forth while linking his hands behind his waist. His eyes shone when he heard the sound of a car stopping in front of his house.
"Hi honey, how are you?" Maria kisses Rona's cheeks left and right, then kisses Ezio.
"We're both good news Ma. I'm sorry, these nights are disturbing Rona." Rona was about to pull on her suitcase but Maria held her back.
"Let Mama alone, son.you will be pregnant young, you must not carry heavy things." Maria pulls the suitcase from Rona's hand and takes it into Marissa's room.
"Thank you Ma, I'm pleased to have Rona and Ezio in this house. Rona was confused where to go. Because here, Rona doesn't have anyone." Rona hugged the woman who was already considered to be her own mother.
"Sama-sama Son, this house is also your home." Maria rubbed Rona's back. "Rest first in the room, pity your son. She seemed very sleepy" added Maria, who saw Ezio yawn several times.
Rona confirms Maria's words by taking Ezio to the room to accompany her son to sleep. But before that he gave a message to Maria in a vague voice. "Ma... Rona can ask for help?"
"What is a son?" sahut Mary.
"Had Edward been looking for Rona and Ezio, just tell him you didn't know. Rona wanted to calm herself down for some time. Can you Ma?" pinta Rona.
Maria nodded with her thumb and closed the door to her daughter's room. The old woman pulled a step towards the kitchen to prepare a small meal for Rona. Even though he does not know what food his mother likes, the granddaughter continued.
Meanwhile...
DUG... DUG... DUG!!!
Someone opened the door in annoyance. And Edward just barged in regardless of someone's screech because his shoulder was pounded by it.
"Basic crazy!" claire grumbled.
"Where's my wife Claire? Where's son?" Edward ran to and fro. Open every door of the room. Unfortunately, he found no one. "Where are you hiding Rona, huh?" snapped Edward.
Claire took a broom from behind the door then hit Edward on the back many times. "What are you doing my best friend, huh? You hurt her? Or are you having an affair?"
Hearing the word cheating, Edward felt guilty for remembering his joke with Natalie last afternoon. He just let his body beaten Claire to the point of bruising.
"Just a misunderstanding Claire" Edward said as his wife's best friend stopped beating him.
"Misunderstand? What kind of misunderstanding makes Rona get away from home? You're playing women?" furious Claire. He remembers very well how the lunge of his best friend's husband who likes to change partners, to just quench his thirst.
"He misunderstood me, seeing me hugging a woman. Tap—"
"But what huh?" cut Claire. "You're saying that woman is your cousin?" claire snapped who started putting up the horses. And sure enough one hard kick slid into Edward's face. The man's body turned, then hit the floor. It wasn't just bruises that Edward had, but blood that was pouring out from the base of his nose.
Edward rubbed the flowing blood, then sat on the floor with his hands wrapped around his knees. "Kick me again Claire, as much as you're satisfied. I deserve it!"
"A kick is nothing, because I'm sure Rona's feelings right now are hurt!" Claire walked into the kitchen and carried a knife.
"I-that's the knife for what Claire?" Edward is shocked because Claire seems to be very angry with him.
"It's a knife to cut off your cheap dick, Edward!" threaten Claire. "I won't hesitate with my words, if for one week Rona can't find you, just wait for what I'll do to you!"
"But Claire...."
"I don't want to hear anything more from your rotten mouth, mad boss!" Claire pulls Edward's arm. "Now you're out of here before my mind changes!"
Edward bowed lethargic, his clothes were already disheveled with a shabby and chaotic face. He stepped up with a giant like a zombie. A few steps he walked, Edward stared. Then gave one message to the girl who was staring at him with various question marks.
"I love Rona so much, Claire. I did not betray him one bit. If you meet him or he calls you, please tell my wife, go home." Edward's chest felt tight, he continued his steps out of the apartment. Claire closed the door tightly.
"Where are your numbers? You don't have anyone, why don't you tell me?" Claire searches for her phone intending to call Rona, but unfortunately her best friend's phone number is out of reach.
"Where are you, Rona?" Claire rubbed her face rough. He walked back and forth with one hand tapping his forehead using his mobile phone. Her other hand was above her waist. He thought hard looking for the whereabouts of Rona, but his memory found nothing.
