THE CHARM OF THE VILLAGE GIRL
(FEGG) ~ Itchy Crocodile

Fedo broke out in a cold sweat when he was stared at so intensely by his father and mother Luri. Just after Fedo realized that Luri had learned about the slander committed by Kanita, he immediately rushed to Shanghai. And when Fedo arrived in this country he went straight to his family's residence Luri to explain that what Kanita said was not true. But who would have thought that the arrival of Fedo was already in wait by Glenn and also Nania. With great wrath Gleen and Nania beat Fedo to a pulp as soon as he got out of the car. Actually, Fedo could have fought back, but he was quite aware that what Gleen and Nania did was because he had made Luri sad. It's natural, and Fedo understands this very well. So he resigned only when his body was made moons by these two people.

"Fedo, are you okay? Your face is battered so. Want to be compressed first?" nita asked without the heart to see the man who had let her daughter down get hurt like this.

"No need, Auntie. Thank you," Fedo replied with a wry smile. "I deserve this from Gleen and Nania. They have a right to beat me up which has disappointed their loved ones. I deserve it."

Luyan sighed. He continued to stare at the look on Fedo's face that looked so regretful. From here Luyan tried to believe that Fedo was innocent as he was being told. He believed that this man was only a victim of a woman's selfishness.

"Uncle, Aunt. Can I meet Luri? I knew he must have hated me so much after seeing the news circulating in the media. But he also needs to know that I have never done anything as low as the story says. Between me and Kanita is just an ex who used to be together, but after that I never want to have any relationship with her again. Please Uncle and Aunt trust me, right? I'm an asshole, but I never once thought of impregnating a woman who wasn't my wife. Kanita is pregnant not because of me, but she deliberately targeted me because she could not accept seeing my closeness with Luri. If Uncle and Aunt still don't believe me, I have proof. Waita minute!"

Fedo hastily turned on his phone then showed a video in which Andero was conducting a press conference to uncover the truth.

"Geez, so the baby in the woman's womb is this man's son?" pekik Nita shock. He hovered in disbelief to see her.

"Yes, Auntie. And he deliberately admitted that it was my son with the intention of wanting to destroy my love affair with Luri" Fedo said.

"How can there be such a cruel woman? Oh my God, the world is getting old. There are already many humans who act without using their sound logic. Really very dear!"

Fedo. She was relieved that at least Luri's parents still believed in her. Now Fedo's job is one more thing, which is to regain the trust of his village girl. But before Fedo could ask Luri where she was, he was already shocked when Uncle Luyan gave him a letter left behind by Luri.

"Fed, honestly Uncle was relieved because it turned out that the news was not true. But your arrival here is too late because Luri already believed that the child born by the woman was your child!" luyan said as she took a letter from her shirt pocket. "This is the letter Luri wrote. Read on, you'll understand why Luri did all this!"

With breath choked and hand shaking Fedo started reading letter by letter which was Luri's outpouring of heart. And when Fedo read the part where Luri had felt lied to two months ago when Fedo admitted to visiting a client at the hotel, Fedo's world seemed to darken instantly. He did not expect that Luri would remember the incident where Fedo had reasoned to meet a client who was actually Kanita. Fedo is forced to lie because he does not want to make Luri think. However, Fedo did not think that Luri actually harbored suspicion, but he chose to remain silent. Fedo's too fucking, isn't he?

"To London" Luyan replied. "Actually today he asked you to come here because he wanted to say goodbye, Fed. He and Galang both won medical scholarships in London. But Luri purposely kept this from you because she was worried that you would ban her from leaving. Uncle hope you don't feel played by Luri yeah, Fed. He did all this to make it look appropriate when you're together. Luri is fighting for your relationship!"

"When did he go, Uncle?" fedo asked in a very quiet voice.

"It should be tomorrow Luri and Galang will just leave for London. But Luri asked for her departure in a hurry after the woman called her and said she was pregnant with your child. The letter says the reason you refuse to take responsibility is because you are getting married. Luri must feel very guilty if she becomes the cause of a child born without being accompanied by her biological father. He's giving up on the future of the baby that he thinks is right your son, Fedo. She was shaken and then decided to walk away in the hope that you would be willing to take responsibility for the baby!" nita answered in place of her husband talking.

Luyan and Nita looked at each other as they saw Fedo who was immediately limp once they knew that their daughter was no longer in the country. Really, they feel sorry for this guy. But what would be said, they could not blame Luri's decision completely. But one thing is clear, both Luyan and Nita, they are equally relieved because Fedo is clean from the problems that made Luri leave home.

"It turns out I'm so bad that even Luri can't trust me like this. I didn't think he would prefer to go with another man instead of asking me for an explanation!" fedo said with a sad laugh. He was very sick when he found out that Luri had planned his departure with Galang from a long time ago. He's disappointed.

Unexpectedly one powerful punch directly landed on Fedo's face as soon as he expressed his disappointment towards Luri. Holding his cheek numb, Fedo intended to return the man who had suddenly hit him. But just as Fedo raised half his hand, he immediately caught sight of the existence of Nania who was in the middle of eye banging while carrying a baseball bat in her hand. Fedo's dead flea.

"Sister Fedo, you are really no longer helped. How dare you think that about my brother!" amuk Nania stared at Fedo from the tip of her hair to the tip of her foot. "Cihh, I thought you were the only good-looking man on earth. Conscious Brother, aware. Galang is even a thousand times more handsome than you. But what, Brother Luri even rejected him just for the sake of a selfless man like you. And now he's gone a long way because you're itchy. You crocodile, my brother suffers a lot of inner origin you know. Huhhhh!"

"Your brother is not being honest with me!" fedo looked the other way. Nania's eyes were too fierce, she was reluctant to see it.

"You're more dishonest to my brother. He said he wanted to see a business friend, but the truth is that you even made it up with the Kanita-Kanita. Hih, once crocodiles itch still crocodile itch. You're really not saved anymore, Fedo. I'm very supportive of Kak Luri's decision to go with Kak Galang rather than him having to eat heart because he continues with an itchy man like you. You suck!" nania's unmitigated condemnation dictates Fedo's guilt.

Realizing that her daughter's anger will still continue to overflow, Nita decides to take Nania away from Fedo's presence. He felt bad because his daughter was too blunt in cursing and bringing up the Japanese man's mistakes. Nita still has the heart not to let Nania further hurt the feelings of Fedo who is hurt because of his own dishonesty. He's pity.
