The Beginning of a Famous Writer
The Presence of the Ex

As usual after taking Indri to school, I will return home, and busy taking care of fish, feeding, moving, changing water, mating, many others, many others, there are activities I do every day with fish.

In the middle of the fun to take fish from the pond to be moved into a small bottle, because the fish has begun to grow and can not be placed in one place anymore. Suddenly the sound of a motorbike came, and stopped right near me.

"Bang Ardi's morning." Sweepings.

Turns out it was a mind. I was so angry and upset. Sure enough Indri said she was a cheap woman. How dare he come here again. Even if Indri is not home, does he not feel ashamed of his mother Indri? I'm upset myself.

"Cita, why are you here?" Ketusku, I'm so annoyed. I'm sick of seeing her sweet-ass face.

"Ih bang Ardi really is. I'm here to miss you, you no longer want to attend reunion events. That's why I'm samperin here." Speak with the spoiled made.

"Cita is enough! This is my in-laws house, are you not ashamed to come here, Indri is indeed at school, but my in-laws are here. You have a brain, right? I've got a wife and I'm happy with my family." I started to get upset and catch him.

"But Ardi I still love you, I want to come back with you!" Her speech.

He looked a little upset because I saw he was no longer using my brother's call to me.

Cita and I are different, we are only a few months different. Ever since I was dating, he called me brother.

"Stop all your desires, because it's impossible, I have a wife I love so much. We're just the past. Nothing more. So stop trapping me!" My words snapped at him.

I saw her crying, but I didn't care. It must be crocodile tears. I just left it, I walked towards the house.

"Your wife also has another man out there. I'll come back with that evidence, and when that happens you'll come to your knees after me for feeling let down by your wife." Said loudly.

I, who had memorized their play, did not care about his words. I still passed leaving him.

From the inside I see it passing by with its motor.

When I was peeking at him from behind the window.

"Son Ardi, who was it?" My mother's words surprised me.

"Eh anu buk, he's Cita, he set me up, so Indri doubts my loyalty." I clearly.

"Yes, talk well with Indri, whose name is female, easily influenced, let alone related to her husband's affair." Ibuk.

"Yes buk, but do you trust me? I don't think the same with Indri, do I?" I began to investigate my mother's assessment of me.

"Hummer smile. Son, just now when the woman came, she was in the front room, without you noticing your conversation."

Mother claimed to witness the arrival and conversation between me and Cita. Automatic mother trust me, because from our conversation earlier I raw reject Cita.

"If you suspect you, I'm definitely interrogating you right now. But from your gaze and actions on the woman, I'm sure you have no relationship with her. Plus your attitude and guts don't seem like you're hiding something." Mother's light again.

"Thank you for trusting me. Indri had started to believe if we were framed, but he would still look for evidence to believe a hundred percent. Just pray we can silence the mouth of the man who tried to destroy our household." My reply.

"Yes nak Ardi, the message is only one, never disappoint Indri, he lives in shackles of revenge due to divorce mother, do not let what Indri felt also by your children." Ibuk advised while gently patting my shoulder.

***

While Indri at school.

"It's time to pick Rey up." Mumbles. And immediately sauntered towards the door.

When I reached the school gate, my hand was blocked by someone from behind. I was shocked. And immediately glanced towards that person.

My face is pale. I feel an incredible fear. The one who blocked a man, with his face wearing a mask and his head perched on a hat. His body was covered in a leather jacket. Just like the villain in the movie I used to watch.

"Who are you?" I said while trying to let go of my hand.

But my efforts have been in vain. It's so powerful blocking this wrist.

Laughing, he opened his mask.

"Did you not recognize me yet?" His words were followed by his laughter.

I'm glaring. Bummer. I didn't expect to meet in person after all these years.

Yes, he is Ronal. Why would he know I work here? Questions ran through my mind.

"Let go!" I said while swinging my hand, and finally the check was peeled off as well.

I rubbed my wrist that hurt a little because of it.

"Sorry Ndri, I don't intend to make your hands hurt." He spoke softly while trying to hold my hand.

As fast as lightning, I avoided my hands. Until his intention did not happen.

"Ronal! What are you doing here?" I said like a frightened man.

I was a little scared to meet him again. Remembering a word he slipped in the brown bouquet this morning. I shudder in horror. Afraid he'll be reckless.

I look around. There's no one. Only the vendors on the roadside. But it's pretty far from my current position.

"Why are you such a frightened person so Ndri? I will not do anything bad. And I won't hurt you, either physically let alone bathin. I'm not the same as your husband who can bring another woman into your family." It was like knowing what I was feeling.

I'm still quiet.

"How did you get my chocolate bouquet? You likey?" Ask again.

I'm still quiet. I was thinking how I could escape from it.

"Ndr! I still love you. I used to leave you for the future so I could make you happy. It is proven that until now I have not been married. Never mind getting married, as long as I break up from you I keep this heart and this feeling just for you. But you married her." Obviously at length.

"Ronal silence! Stop wishing that way. I'm married, I have kids. And happy with my family." I said with a loud tone.

"But Ndri. He betrayed you. It is impossible for a woman to be happy with a partner who has betrayed her." Answer again. Smiling scornfully at my husband's actions he just explained.

"Stop accusing my husband." Reply again.

"That's not the end of Indri! It's reality. I'll prove it! Your husband is good at hiding behind his mask of kindness! And when it happened. My hands are still wide open to receive you. Even with your son." He said with a smile with eyes hinting for me to believe him.
