THE ACCUSED'S WIFE WAS NOT IN CHARGE OF FINANCES
36. Glimmer of Hope
Sari deliberately fished the conversation. He spreads things about Dimas' personality to find out how Rani really feels.
Yesterday, inadvertently Wendi and Sari met with Dimas in the market. Both were very concerned about Dimas's situation. His body is very thin because it is not managed to make Sari almost do not know him.
At first Dimas refuses Wendi's invitation to go down to his house out of embarrassment and self-knowledge but Wendi and Sari continue to persuade him by promising that he will be given a job at home.
"From you being a porters in the market and having no bed, it's better to stay in our house. There are jobs you can do and we will give you a living wage and a decent place to live!" said Sari.
"Are you not disgusted with me?" dimas said with a low.
"As humans, we should help each other" Wendi said.
"Actually I deeply regretted betraying my excellent wife, but Caca always came to the house and teased me. I am a normal man and the devil has possessed me until something unexpected happens. I realized that what I was experiencing now was the result of my sins, which is why I just resigned and could no longer do anything, let alone hope to be reunited with my wife. One thing that really bothered my mind was my son, Glen... " Dimas cried sobbing making Wendi and Sari also shed tears.
So the story until now Dimas has lived in Wendi's house. He was given a job to clean around the yard.
Wendi and Sari agree to try to reunite her best friend's household. That is why they came to see Rani but for now they are still secretive about the whereabouts of Dimas.
Sari continues to encourage her best friend and once she brings up the good side of Dimas' personality with the intention to erode the hatred that is in Rani's heart.
"You're not afraid here if you're alone with Glen?" sari asked after saying goodbye to go home because it was almost late at night.
"Well, no. anyway, want to be anything else, from now on must learn to get used to living alone with my son," replied Rani with a faint smile.
"Take care of yourself, we go home first, see you tomorrow at school!"
"Okay, thank you!"

One month later Glen's state of concern, his body looks thin because he is lazy to eat and he is not as happy as before. Every morning he asked his mother when did he come home?
Tonight, Rani wakes up to hear her son deliriously calling his father.
"Jeez, her body is hot!" ruman Rani groped her son.
"Dad... dad... !" glen was half conscious.
"Yes, son, my mother is here" said Rani trembling. He was very scared and panicked.
Rani immediately took the equipment to compress Glen's body and hoped that the heat would soon fall but until some time the heat did not fall as well. He had an idea to call Sari.
"Yes, Ran, what's the matter, why call the night?"
"My son has a high fever and is always nervous, I want to ask for help to take him to the hospital!" rani's voice was terrified.
"Okay, you calm down, yeah, we'll be right there!"
Sari wakes up Wendi who just fell asleep after the two had sex for almost an hour.
"Mmm, you want another round?" wendi said with her eyes still closed.
"Mas don't play dumb, let's get up, it's an emergency!
Hearing his wife's serious words, Wendi immediately woke up.
"What's wrong?"
"Let's go to Rani's house, her son is sick and has to be taken to the hospital tonight too!"
"Do we take Dimas with us?"
"For now, not yet,"
"Luckily this child you brought here quickly" said the doctor after infusing a tiny, defenseless arm.
"Thank you, Doc!" rani said with a relieved heart.
"Together, Mom. I stay first, if there's anything, call me right away!" the doctor said and left the room.
"Thank you, Wen! Thank you Sari! Sorry, I've been a hassle! I don't know what would have happened if you hadn't come" Rani said.
"Together, Ran, we are sincerely helpful and never feel bothered" replied Wendi.
For almost an hour they waited. Drowsiness has begun to feel because time has shown O2.30 in the morning.
"Dad..., dad... !" Glen went back to calling his father. Rani fingered her son's forehead and she was shocked because the heat was rising again.
The sleepiness disappeared instantly. Wendi immediately went out to call the doctor because Glen's body was convulsing.
The doctor added the medicine to the infusion bottle after checking Glen's body condition.
"It looks like this kid is being depressed" Doctor Boy muttered.
Wendi and Sari looked at each other, while Rani stroked her son's head while shedding tears. He understood that Glen was sick because he missed his father. At the moment, she has no idea where her husband is.
"Maybe this child is missing his father" said Wendi, winking one eye at his wife.
"Yes, he was always calling his father," continued Sari. He deliberately provoked the reaction of his best friend.
"Where is it?" ask Doctor.
They were silent and looking at each other. Wendi almost slipped but Sari stepped on her foot.
"His father is in the village because there is work to be completed" said Sari.
"But the condition of this child is concerning and I am sure what if he met his father then his condition will improve" advised Dr. Boy.
After Glen's condition improved somewhat, Doctor Boy left the room. Now they are silent with their own minds.
"What do you think, for example, that tomorrow we go looking for Dimas?" ask Wendy to Rani who is still in tears.
"Yes, Ran.., this is for Glen's recovery, do not let anything unwanted happen, then we regret," continued Sari.
"Where are you going to look for him?" rani asked with sobs. She worries about Dimas's whereabouts as time goes from home, she brings absolutely nothing and Rani also makes sure that her husband will not go home to her parents out of embarrassment and fear.
"We will look for him until we can for Glen's recovery" Wendi replied confidently.
"Thank you in advance,"
Momentary silence.
"Mother, I want to drink" said Glen, feeling thirsty.
Rani immediately grabbed the bottle of drink on the table and helped her son to drink from the bottle using a pipette.
"You have patience, son! Tomorrow morning Om Wendi and Aunt Sari will pick up dad" said Rani softly.
"What's right, Mom?" glen asked with sparkling eyes.
"Yes dear, so now the child must be eager to get well soon and meet the father!" rani replied with a smile. He was relieved to see that his only child had started to get excited just by hearing the news that his father was coming.
Wendi and Sari throw each other a smile because a glimmer of hope has been imagined to reunite her best friend's household.
