I'm Not a Man's Own Taker
Officially Divorced


In the morning, the sunshine was so bright that day. Started to enter into the glass window curtain in front of him. And it fell right into the direction of a girl who was busy in front of her desk. Make it like a living, real painting.


His white skin, as if shining when exposed to sunlight from behind the glass wall of the room. And that girl is Elliana Myesha.


After performing his duties as a Muslim. That is the morning prayer in his office. Ellia just took off her face. And began to work by using only a white t-shirt that looks great on his body. And hotpant pants on the knees are milk-brown. He looked so comfortable in his clothes. If only in the house or in his personal space.


It is different when it is outside the room. Ellia will be more comfortable with a fairly covered and polite outfit. Although not yet able to hijab back hijab. Like when he went to school. But at least, she still covered her greatest aurat than as a Muslim woman.


Ellia had been awake since dawn. And restarted his remaining work a little more. As a result of last night, right at 12:10 WITA, night. He was no longer able to endure his sleepiness. So, he decided to sleep and rest his tired body first. And then he will continue his work, tomorrow alone.


For a while, Ellia was still struggling with the laptop in front of her. Suddenly, Ritna entered the room. While carrying a tray containing a glass of avocado juice. And two sheets of bread with crunchy chocolate jam inside.


   "Mba', breakfast first! Here, I've made avocado juice and bread crispy chocolate jam content Mba's favorite'. Let the work get more excited and the stomach does not rumble, later." said Ritna. Putting the tray on one side of Naziah's desk.


   "Well..thank you, Dek! You know if Mba' needs nutritional intake. To arouse the spirit of work, Mba' which soon seems to be down." said Ellia with a happy look.


And started sipping his avocado juice, a little bit. For the sake of wetting his throat that had felt dry since. It was too much of a responsibility to leave his job to get drinking water and wet his throat. But, Ritna with her understanding brought her that breakfast.


     "Yes, equally, Mba'. Yes, enjoy...! I went back first and wanted to get ready to open the counter." reply Ritna and say retreat. To do his job at that time.


And Ellia resumed her work. And spent that breakfast too.


Exactly at 09.46 WITA, a light blue Cooper mini car appeared to enter the counter page and the phone. Of course, Ellia already knows who the owner of the car is. He is Aunt Ernawati, the owner of the pulse counter who currently entrusts the stewardship of his small business to Ellia, the nephew.


       "Assalamu'alaikum, El', Rit'! How are you guys doing? Good luck and good, yes!" aunt Erna said, very friendly.


       "Wa'alaikumsalam, Aunt." replied Ellia and Ritna together. "Thank God, we're very healthy and well too. Aunt herself, healthy too, right?" ellia answered and asked representing Ritna.


As they greeted and kissed the polite back of the middle-aged woman's hand before them.


   "Alhamdulillah, Aunt is also still healthy. Although sometimes, sometimes Aunt's knees feel stiff and sore. If you stand and walk too long. Understandably, I want to enter old age. Hehe.." replied Aunt Erna with a slight laugh.


     "Whoops!!! Aunty has to drink A***ne milk regularly. I've been drinking. Let our bones do not quickly porous later. Masa', the face is still ageless gini, but his leg bones have been ankle anyway. That would look funny, Auntie, haha...!" ellia's recommendation to her boss was joking. In order to always maintain bone health, when entering old age like that.


    "For that, let's go straight inside, Auntie. Thank God, there is still an increase in each month as usual. Although the increase is not so significant anyway, Auntie." replied Ellia. While taking his boss into his study. And will continue to speak in his study.


     "Yes, it's okay. Just like that, Auntie's already very grateful, El'. Come on!" answer Aunt Erna. And followed Ellia's footsteps to get into her study.


And Ellia and Aunt Erna began to talk about their business. More intensely in that room. While Ritna, busy serving customers who come to the counter pulsa and their mobile phone.

 "Wa'alaikumsalam warahmatullahi wa barakatu." reply everyone present there.


Mrs Listiani and her husband, Mr. Erik Atmaja, were also there. They sat in the chair behind Evan's chair. They came, of course, as witnesses from Evan Dimas Atmaja's side.


The seat of the defendant, Puspita. She was accompanied only by a lawyer and Aunt Erna with her husband. As a witness from Puspita's own side.


"alright. Today I will read the verdict on the divorce case filed by brother Evan Dimas Atmaja. To his wife, named Puspita. And after passing through several stages of procedures that have legal provisions in our country. ****That is Evan Dimas Atmaja's brother and Puspita's sister. From today onwards, officially divorced****. **Tok... tok...tok**.." said the Chief Justice.


With a slightly pressing voice and speaking loudly at the end of his sentence. Then closed his words with a hammer curse three times. As a sign that the divorce of two people is official in the eyes of their state and religion, at this time.
