The general returned to Darmono's room to talk to his mother about his conversation with Fitria.
Fitria herself chose to go home because she did not want to be involved with the plan that would be realized by the General.
He smiled with satisfaction as the general greeted his idea. The good man suddenly became dumb just because of desperate circumstances according to Fitria.
When he arrived at the Salimah residence, his smile returned when he saw his superior's car there.
He hurriedly paid the taxi fare not even asking for his change because he was so happy.
It is very rare for Fitria to do, because the woman is calculating. During his stay at Salimah house he did not want to spend more money. Only occasionally buy food necessities so that it is not seen how he calculated.
He chose to replace it by helping Iyem work at home so that Salimah did not insinuate him about the needs of the house.
"Sir Afnan," said Fitria when she saw the boss sitting holding his son.
"Yes," replied Afnan flatly.
Fitria sighed in annoyance at the flat treatment from her superior.
"Mother must be tired. Let me replace carrying Rino," he bargained when he saw Rino was already asleep in the lap of Afnan.
"No need, he will wake up," rejected Afnan who no longer respects the attention of his secretary.
"Father changed," said Fitria suddenly sad.
Afnan frowned in surprise at the words of Fitria that seemed to corner him.
"Since I've been so fit, what has changed from me? It seems like you just misunderstood all my attitudes. I did good because you were my secretary-to-be. When I first saw you I knew you had a little trouble" Afnan said.
"Moreover, Judis and I also know very well the bulian that you experience because it can be our secretary actually makes you ostracized by your coworkers, right? That's what makes me and Judis feel sorry for you."
"Unfortunately my attitude is precisely that you misunderstand, I never have any feelings for you. Just a top and you are a woman" explained Afnan at length.
Fitria actually sobbed to hear the rejection that was heard so emphatically from Afnan. If yesterday the man seemed ordinary to hear all the expressions of his heart.
But now the man who managed to make her fall in love for the first time actually made her very heartbroken.
“Do I love my father wrongly? You must know what it's like to be me,” asked Fitria.
“I can't prevent someone from liking or admiring me. Just please understand your limits. It's your attitude that makes me feel like you wish I had to return your feelings. You know exactly who you like, likes others. Wouldn't you rather give up?” pinta Afnan firmly.
Not strong to bear the heartache of all the rejection of his superiors, Fitria stood up and left Afnan with a cry that he could not stand.
Afnan sighed, let him be said to be cruel rather than make Fitria more deeply like him.
He thought with a firm rejection like this it would make Fitria aware and bury her feelings of liking.
After all, he had already made the decision to be back together with his ex-wife. So he will focus on his goal only.

In the hospital, the General sat three with his mother and Salimah looked down more.
"What's up, Jen? Do you want to apologize to Salimah?" cecar Evita flat.
The general took a breath, it was hard to lower his pride to apologize to the woman he considered to be the bearer of bad things in his life.
"I'm sorry Sal. I had many more thoughts until you finally got the release of my frustration," said the General forced.
But he appreciated the general who was willing to apologize to him.
"Not papa mas," replied Salimah softly.
The general looked at his mother. "Mom there's something the General wants to say."
"What's wrong?" ask Evita worriedly. He no longer knew how to help his son deal with his problems.
He had already spent a lot of money to help with the treatment of his son-in-law. But if you have to spend more money for compensation costs clearly he can not afford.
Besannya also gave up, but the accident happened because of the actions of their children, but Tati and Iwan said raise their hands because they could not help.
"The general is planning to sell our house, ma'am. Also maybe some of Triya's jewelry. It's just .." said the General paused.
"I can't buy another house. Even for just contracting it feels will be heavy,”.
"Then?" sela Evita was confused by the direction her son was talking.
"Didn't Salimah's house belong to the mother who bought it?" ask the general suddenly.
"You don't fuck around, Jen. The house even though the mother bought it but already in the name of Salimah. So you don't expect to rule that house!" sergeant Evita.
"Geez, ma'am, I'm not done talking. So bad am I in mother's mind," the general looked for his mother's sympathy.
"Then what do you want? Don't muter-muter is not clear like this dong," complained Evita.
"Can I stay there for a while? I asked for rich that much, Mom. In addition to the distance to the hospital is closer than there. I can also pay in full the money from the sale of the house for damages."
"Honestly, I don't know where the money is from to cover all this. So this is my only request to mom and you Sal."
Evita gamang, she knows the difficulties her son is experiencing. But to allow the son to stay in the small house of Salimah it also feels disinclined to Salimah.
Evita then glanced at Salimah who was back down while twisting her hand.
"All decisions depend on Salimah Jen. As you know the house belongs to Salimah completely, so the mother has no right to decide" Evita broke up.
Salimah looked at Evita confusedly. He is truly a dilemma. Whether to grant her ex-husband's request or refuse.
After all, he wanted to live where the man was, while the rooms in his house were only three and were all filled.
"I'm sorry, I'm not going to refuse, but where do I want to live? While the rooms in the house are all filled," replied Salimah who hoped the General would understand.
The general smiled faintly withstanding his frustration. It seemed like Salimah was about to make things difficult for her, she thought.
"Will my mom and dad stay there forever?" a big question that made Evita answer it quickly.
"Of course not, even your father has asked to go home if it has been out of here," replied Evita according to the estimation of the General who made his smile grow.
While Salimah stiffened hearing the answers of her former in-laws.
"I'll stay there after mom and dad get home. After all, at home there are no men. What if Salimah wants to give birth in the middle of the night? Fitria itself cannot drive a car. So the general thinks the general's presence can help Salimah a little."
"At least I can be a standby father approaching the moment of the birth of our child" he continued, staring at Salimah.
Salimah swallowed his saliva. Confused how else to refuse while the reason given by the General is very reasonable.
