A Mate is Never Wrong
I'm not alone anymore.

Niko takes Wulan and Fanny to her restaurant. Formerly the restaurant was hated by Niko because the cuisine there contains a lot of fat.

Before meeting Wulan Niko was very selective with food. Not afraid of weight gain, Niko is very caring for health rather than appearance.

However, that consistency came to a halt when he got to know Wulan. Niko doesn't even care about the dangers in her intake anymore.

"Are you sure you're gonna eat here?" asked Fanny while looking at Niko's athletic body shape, "The body is awake this is sure the intake was awake?"

Niko smiled looking at Wulan. "No problem, the most important thing is not to exercise. My goal is to exercise, so I can eat well."

They all came in laughing. After getting a place and ordering a menu according to taste, Niko asked them for an explanation of the events today.

Fanny and Wulan declare the incident. They also openly mentioned who did it.

"So your mama called," Niko said as she looked at Wulan, "there were two policemen at home looking for Ulan. Did you report him?"

Fanny nodded. "It's worth what he did."

"You don't mind, he reported your sister to the police?" ledek Niko's.

"He must be punished according to his deeds."

"Oh, yes," added Fanny, "why don't you just report it to the police, he's already cheating on you?"

Niko and Wulan were sitting next to each other. They looked at Fanny with a serious expression.

"His father is dead. Hopefully it will be a lesson for him" explained Wulan.

Niko shook her head. "That's impossible. The proof is that he hurt Viona, right?"

"That means the universe wants him to be punished."

"Did Deril know about this?" ask Niko.

Fanny already knows about Deril and Viona's relationship with Wulan. Wulan also already knew the romance from Deril directly. The two women also know the attachment of Niko and the Lamber family. So, they were not surprised when Niko asked that question.

"The derile will come tomorrow. The Lamber family knew about this. That's why they reported Ulan to the authorities."

"That's what it's supposed to be," Niko replied when the waiter came with the order menu. The three of them ate while asking Wulan's experience while in Manado.

***

As if he had no sin, Ulan returned home without guilt. He even asked Angelina's whereabouts then approached and greeted her who was sitting in the living room while reading a magazine.

Wanting to draw Angelina's attention, Ulan made a pitiful expression, as if she was still very saddened by the loss of Jefry.

Angelina couldn't believe it. He also did not directly attack Ulan based on the news he knew. Angelina looked at Ulan from head to head.

"Where are you from?"

I sat in front of Angelina. "I'm from a friend's house, at home keeps making me unable to forget papa."

A mother's instinct makes Angelina want to hug Ulan. However, considering the treatment they had done to her biological daughter made Angelina exasperated.

"Clean your body, so you will look fresh and healthy. Dinner soon."

Hearing that clearly made Ulan's smile widen. He felt his spirit was back. Although Angelina's expression was unconvincing, she was sure that she had forgiven him.

"Thank you, Ma. I'll take a shower."

Angelina is waiting for Ulan. Once the woman was no longer reached by him, he went out on his own without anyone's knowledge.

On the other side.

Ulan was so happy to enter his room. He scatters the body and then grabs the phone to contact Imenk. With a big smile and a cheerful heart he waited for his call to be connected.

"Hello, where are you?" greet Imenk with a worried tone.

Ulan doesn't care about that. "You take it easy I've come home and arrived safely. You know, Imenk ..he has forgiven me, Mama Angelina has forgiven me. Oh, Imenk, I'm so happy, I'm finally not alone anymore. I thought I'd live alone forever after my papa's gone."

"really?"

"Yes. His expression was a little dull. No problem, I'm sure it's in his heart the love that's still stored that he's been giving me."

"You don't be happy, Ulan."

Her happy expression was gone. "Why?"

"Have your brother come home?"

"Sir Wulan? No, he's not here. Mama didn't say anything about him either."

"So that incident he saw you. She was also the one who helped Viona and took Viona to the hospital."

"You mean Wulan is here?" Ulan was surprised, "No way, before doing that I saw no one I knew but you there."

Ulan got up from the bed. "They ... Whom did Wulan show up with, Imenk?"

"with friends. I don't know, obviously she's also a woman."

Ulan was a little worried. He paced in front of the bed. "I think he showed up with Niko. If that's true, Niko will definitely report me to the police."

"Did the police not come to you?"

"No."

"Thank God. I'm so worried about that, I think your brother will get angry and report you to the police."

"That's not going to happen, where maybe he's willing to send his sister there. Moreover, he knew my papa was dead. Even if it's true, he has no right to charge me there, he's not who Viona is. Just knowing Viona isn't, let alone bonding."

"I'm glad to hear it, all I'm worried about is that."

Ulan smiles. "I take a shower, dinner is available, I don't want you to lose respect for me anymore."

"alright. If you need anything, you just tell me."

Without replying to Imenk's words, Ulan immediately disconnects the call. With a big smile he looked at himself in front of the mirror.

"Today is a day for me. I have to leave the past and live a new life."

Geck! Geck!

The sound of knocking on the door surprised him. "Who?"

"Auntie, Non."

"What's up, Bi? I haven't had a shower. Tell mama I'll be down in a minute."

"It's not about the mistress, Non."

With furrowed and curious brows Ulan opened the door of his room. "What's up, Bi?"

"In front were two people looking for Non Ulan. They are big and tall. Their clothes were not neat, but they knew Mr. Jefry."

"Who and where are they from?"

"They didn't tell, Non. They said they wanted to see you."

Ulan is getting curious. "Did mama know?"

"The lady's with them up ahead."

"Alright, I'm down now."

With enthusiasm and curiosity Ulan went down the stairs. In his heart he wondered who they were. Ulan wishes they weren't some of Jefry's men who came to ask for a reward.

"Ma ..," said Ulan as soon as he arrived in front of the house. He saw two tall handsome men standing in front of Angelina.

Angelina turned. "Have you not taken a shower?"

"I was just about to take a shower when my aunt knocked on my door," Ulan looked at the men, "Are they really looking for me?"

"True," replied one man, "You must come with us now Miss Ulan."

"I ... for what?"

Angelina approached. "You didn't forget, did you, what did you do to Viona today?"

Ulan's face turned pale. "Vi-Viona?"

"You were reported for the violence against Miss Viona at a restaurant this afternoon."

"Report ... Who reported it?"

"You'll find out later, a lot of eyewitnesses saw you throw hard water on Miss Viona's face this afternoon. Come on, come with us, you can explain it at the police station."

Ulan looked at Angelina. "Ma, help me .. I'm not wrong, I'm just replying to what he did to me."

Angelina did not answer, she looked at the two men and encoded their heads.

They also firmly brought Ulan to the police car that was ready in front of the gate.

"Come, hurry."

"Ma, help me! I'm not wrong! I'm innocent, Mama!"
