ERIKA (The Slandered Woman)
Chapter 20

At the same time as Afnan whines at Mother Melati's approval to approve her approaching Erika, Rani's mother, who happens to want to shop for vegetable carts, accidentally meets Erika and her granddaughter.

Erika felt awkward and wrong what to do to her former in-laws. He was silent without saying hello. Let it be considered arrogant or other negative stigma. His name is broken.

"Rik, is shopping for vegetables really that far? Don't tell me just the actual mode of being the stalker of Aldo and Sinta's household. Eling, Rick, eling! Your soul mate and Aldo is enough until yesterday!" tuding Ms. Rani still has a spicy mouth. He also glanced at the cynical Erika who was across the wagon.

"Don't suudzon, Rani's mother. Erika told me that there was a need to be the same as Ms. Melati."

Erika was silent because of the explanation of Ms. Siti - the vegetable seller seemed to have had enough. During being a daughter-in-law, Erika has memorized outside in the hard character of Mother Rani who even though wrong still wants to look right. So, rather than the grim fortune of serving the mouth of the former in-laws on a day that is still said to be morning, Erika also rushed to pay for vegetables of her choice.

Being a single parent it must be all deft, so there is a vegetable handyman that he passed in front of him, Erika had decided to shop first for processed nutritious food her son. Once the road is finished. Irit time! Not meant to be Aldo's stalker like Ibu Rani's accusation. Although honest, he still has a love for Aldo to date, but he is also willing to humble himself. Erika's principle is that, let go in the hands of the faithful, maybe that was the beginning of the way her Lord replaced the better one later.

"Grandma beyum shower ya. Hail Grandma like a lion!"

"Ushh.." hissed Erika immediately looked at Icha who was mocking with a code signal 'silence'. Then hurry to cut off Mother Rani's protection in a fast way.

Ibu Siti is seen smothering her mouth so that her gel smile is not visible to Ms. Rani, however she must keep the feelings of her customers from being offended.

"Isa... Brash grandson!" rani's mother was upset.

"Icha is not entirely wrong, Ms. Rani. I haven't had a shower yet, have I?"

Erika still heard the conversation back there. True said Icha if his grandmother's tumben tumbenan not neat, usually while still living together, Mother Rani most anti out of the house without a fresh face. And ah, just this time Erika saw Mother Rani diligently who wanted to shop for vegetables. With him first, boro boro wants to help even if it is just buying vegetables.

"Good morning, Icha. Good morning, Erika!"

Erika and Icha who are already inside the fence area of the house of Mother Melati, directly greeted by Afnan from a distance. Icha was no longer awkward to Afnan. The boy pulled his hand from Erika's grasp and ran small towards the terrace towards Afnan's position.

"Don't run, son."

Icha did not listen to Erika's gentle warning. The small leg continued to swing agilely and stopped right in front of Afnan.

He smiled sweetly to Afnan in reply no less sweet than the man. "This is it, Uncle. Callimakacih ya." Icha extended her hands to Afnan who was carrying her beloved doll. Erika just watched in silence, wanting to know what Icha meant to be willing to release the doll that always accompanied her sleep. Without the doll, Icha usually likes badmood. It is special for this Afnan to Icha if his son is really willing to lose his Pororo doll.

"Why uncle?" Afnan grabbed the soft doll and bent his legs to the floor, so that his position was not far from the tiny body of Icha.

"Kalena, good uncle. Cupelhelo's the same mother Icha."

Yes... Afnan strangled happily in heart. His help to Erika who was bleeding blood, got praise from Icha. No need to bother anymore to take the heart of Icha because this child already likes its presence naturally without being made. Staying to conquer Erika, because the approval of his mother had succeeded he cantongi.

"Is that so?" Afnan asked Icha but the blink of an eye was on Erika to tease the veiled woman. But the one in the blink is like a blind man. There's no response whatsoever. Blush shy cake, or glare furiously at him. Hem... Flat beut.

"Ball, Uncle. It's for you."

"Thank you sweet boy. Then let's go in. Breakfast together then play with brother uh Uncle." Afnan began to tense up his body. Then get ready to grab Icha's hand to walk together into the house. His mother came in first because she wanted to prepare breakfast, he said. But the move was halted by Erika's call.

" We came here early in the morning not to eat breakfast, but heed the desire to learn to teach you. I'm sorry if I refuse to talk, I just want to speed up the time."

"alright... Comein. We'll start studying in the back garden." Afnan according.

All three enter. Without Erika realizing that from outside the fence, there is Rani Mother who faithfully pegs matai with the mode of still choosing vegetables.

"Al, you know what?!" Rani's mother forcibly pulled Aldo's new arm down the stairs.

Aldo was lazy and now he is in the kitchen.

"What the hell, Mom? So excited!" Aldo sat in a chair with a cold look. Just two days apart from Erika, it had made her long for a lot. But half his heart was also reluctant to admit it because it was still consumed by vile slander.

"That's you, your ex-wife__"

"Erika's? Why?" Aldo was suddenly excited.

"Yes, Erika. Even though it's divorced, but it hasn't knocked the hammer legally. But he's been acting up, Al. He's raving near the flocked son of Melati's mother. Ihh... The headscarf is wide, but its behavior is rubbish. This morning has been at the house of Mother Melati. Make what try? Definitely make a charm spread in front of Afnan. Icha was very comfortable with Afnan. "

Degs...

Mother Rani's heart intention was to rub Erika in Aldo's eyes, but she did not realize that she had burned her child's beard. Aldo's heart was extremely jealous. He couldn't accept that Erika had a replacement.

"Hoaamm-chan... What the hell are you doing in the morning?" Sinta came with her face. Not showering and still wearing a nightgown. He also looks lazy in the morning.

Aldo and Rani's mother no one answered.

Sinta then again said, "Mother, make warm tea. Just like breakfast toast, "his word is without any sense of courtesy in front of Mother Rani and Aldo though.

"Love! You should serve us! This mom gave up shopping. You're the one cooking." Rani's mother was made covetous with her new daughter-in-law.

"Elaahh, Mum. I'm gonna go to work. Make us eat!" Sinta passed leisurely after injuring Aldo's self-esteem.
