DIVORCE

NOT A SEDUCTRESS

Salsa looked at his phone screen in disbelief. Recently a friend who was in Jakarta sent a photo of a Rivan in the Mall with a woman and a small child.

"I think he's not Rivan, Sa. But, I'll memorize his face, when I see from a distance that is not too far, it turns out Rivan. But he didn't see me. It's the same kid he is, Rivan's daughter. The problem is that his face is very similar to Rivan's."

"You're not playing games anymore, Are you Mis?"

"Crazy, maybe I'm playing. Your man isn't home, is he?"

"He hasn't been home for five days."

"Fix, then I'm sure what I saw earlier was Rivan."

"Yes, I closed the phone!"

Salsa was upset, she did not expect that Rivan would have the heart to betray and dare to marry another woman. During this time, there were no signs that he had another woman.

But, wait! Salsa's forehead wrinkled instantly when she saw the face of the woman who was with Rivan. It felt no stranger, but, where she saw the woman.

Salsa walked back and forth in his room while folding her hands on her chest.

"It feels like this woman's face is no stranger at all. I know her, but where?" murmured Salsa.

"Ah, she is that woman. The former cashier at Rivan's diner is in Buah Batu street!"Salsa exclaimed cheerfully.

"But, this child is almost as big as Saskia. Has Rivan been in a relationship for a long time? Ah, I can go crazy !"

Salsa decided to go to her mother-in-law's house. Her mother-in-law should know what her beloved son has done.

**

"You don't know that woman?" asked Salsa's mother-in-law.

"No, Mom. The past few months have also been a bit of a stingy thing for me. Lest his young wife is the one who influences, " said Salsa trying to tempt her mother-in-law.

"We have a plan, Sa. Don't let Rivan be suspicious."

Reni immediately whispered something to her daughter-in-law.

"Why do you have to whisper everything? Can't you know your plans?" asked Wahyu Yudianto, Rivan's father.

"Most of all, Dad wants to take care of the child. Rivan is the same Papa, you are one server. Most hobby if cover each other's stories."

"It's up to you. But, according to me, just talk well. No need to use violence. What else if it is true that Rivan had a child. That means that kid is my granddaughter too. And I won't let anyone hurt my granddaughter."

Reni only pursed her lips when she saw her husband pass by.

"Do not enter the heart of your father's words. Rivan is the same as his father."

Salsa just nodded and smiled at her mother-in-law's words.

When Rivan came home, Salsa did not reprimand him at all. sHe still felt upset and curious about the woman who had become her husband's mistress.

"Unusually. Usually, every time I come home you do not stop chirping, whining, and demanding this," Rivan quipped.

"I speak for nothing."

"Then why continue this household?"

Salsa looked at her husband in disbelief.

"Rivan!"

"Did I speak wrong?"

"Divorce if it is already uncomfortable, haven't we quarreled a lot since then? What do we want to maintain again, if it has become like this, " said Rivan?

"Van! I suspect you have other women out there, admit it!" shouted a furious Salsa.

Rivan stared at Salsa sharply, " Yes! I do have a wife and other children. And to be honest, she's much better than you. Kartika is not a materialistic woman who only cares about wealth and money no matter how I am! Have you ever asked me if I have eaten or not, need hot water to take a shower, or just prepare a cup of hot coffee?!"

"Why is there a housekeeper if such a job should I do, Van!"

"That's the wife's job, not just to serve in bed! Husband needs attention, talk to. Don't blame me for looking for another woman who can understand and pay attention to my every need."

"Halah, reason! You are a bastard!"

Salsa flung her hand intending to slap Rivan. However, the man quickly caught Salsa's hand.

"Don't you try to play rough, Sa! Once you try to do this, I don't hesitate to drop a divorce on you!"

"You are brave!" challenged Salsa.

Rivan took a deep breath, he felt tired of all this. He was tired of all his fights with Salsa. All these years of marriage, there was no harmony at all in their household.

"Don't be sorry if I say divorce to you!" said Rivan.

"You would never dare to say that to me," salsa led with a mocking smile.

"Do not challenge!"

"Please if you are brave," Salsa said.

"I'm divorcing you this second also with divorce three!" exclaimed Rivan.

Salsa glued, he did not expect Rivan to say the word divorce firmly and clearly.

"RIVAN! Do you realize what you just said?"

Rivan and Salsa turned their heads, Rivan's parents were already standing by the door and were staring intently at them.

"Come To Your Senses, Mom. I just dropped three divorces to this mother's favorite daughter-in-law who can't do anything."

Salsa immediately rushed into the arms of her mother-in-law while crying.

"Take back your words, Van!"

"You know the law of religion, right? If a husband has dropped three divorces, then he will not be able to be withdrawn just like that. The salsa had to marry someone else and then come back to me. And I don't intend to refer to Salsa either," Rivan replied.

"Rivan has confessed everything, Mom. He has another wife out of town, " said Salsa.

"Is that right, Van?" asks the father.

"Yes, Dad. Her name is Kartika, and our daughter is Dania. sHe just went to fifth grade."

"Astagfirullah, did you marry her first?"

"No, Dad. We just got married, but Dania is my daughter, This Is Dad can see her photo, she looks very similar to me," Rivan said, showing Dania's photo to his father.

"Just looking at his face, I'm sure she's your daughter."

"You're cheating on me, Van!"

"Don't you care if I don't exist, all that matters to you is money, right?"Rivan quipped.

"It's normal for a wife to ask her husband, Van!"

"Indeed, Mom. But, it is not natural for a wife to never serve her husband, " Rivan replied.

Salsa did not accept Rivan's divorce for granted, although his legal status was still Rivan's wife, religiously he could not simply return to Rivan. Her mother-in-law did defend her desperately. But not with his father-in-law who sided with Rivan. It makes Salsa feel upset and hurt.

That morning, he entrusted Saskia to his mother, while he met Rivan. But, not having had time to enter the residential complex, he saw Rivan's car out of the complex. Salsa decided to follow Rivan's car. Unexpectedly, the Rivan car headed to the area of Ciparai Bandung.

"Ah, apparently you want to see your mistress! Well, let's see what I can do, Van," salsa muttered.

Salsa strengthens her heart and follows Rivan, she keeps her visibility so that Rivan does not realize that she is being followed. How hot Salsa's heart was when Rivan arrived at a small house, she saw a woman greet Rivan with a smile and kiss the back of Rivan's hand. Rivan looked happy and kissed the woman's forehead gently, of course, it made Salsa jealous. When was the last time she got a kiss from Rivan? When was the last time she kissed Rivan's hand? It was only once when they got married, after that...

Salsa realized all this time she had never cared for her husband. But can't we talk about it well? But, wait ... It seems Rivan has often conveyed his heart to Salsa. But she was too busy with herself and ignored her husband.

Salsa knows that she is guilty, but her ego seems to justify all the mistakes she made. Full of emotion, Salsa got out of his car, and the open door of the house made her freely enter.

"Ah, so here you are hiding your mistress? Heh, the actor does not know shame, you usurper husband of people! Know who you are!" exclaimed hysterical Salsa.

Rivan who was enjoying a cup of coffee gasped in surprise when he saw the arrival of Salsa.

"You ...."

"Why, Van? Surprised I got here? Surprised I could find your mistress's House?!" said salsa emotion.

Kartika rushed to bring Dania into her room. sHe didn't want Dania to become the target of Salsa's anger.

"Who is that aunt, mom? Why is she angry with Mom and Dad?"

"Dania cover her ears, Dania, don't go out until you come into this room, understand?"

"Got It, Mom."

After securing Dania, Kartika returned to the living room and approached Salsa who seemed to be trying to hit Rivan.

"Ma'am, I beg you to sit down, we talk okay," said Kartika trying to break up. However, Salsa has become angrier with Kartika's words.

"You women don't know yourself, the usurper of a man's husband, a cheap woman! Ah, I remember, you were the cashier who worked at the Rivan restaurant a long time ago, weren't you? The woman who claimed to be helped by Rivan is still a cousin. Hah! A cousin from Hong Kong?! That's cheap! Did you intentionally give yourself and your honor to my husband?! How much do you want me to give now, but you leave my husband!"

Plaque!

Salsa was silent. Rivan's slap made him stop cursing. In his lifetime, Rivan had never slapped him. They often argue, even every day. But, Rivan never lowered his hand to him.

"You slapped me, Van?!" said Salsa.

"Yeah, so you know yourself. Kartika never wanted to marry me. He is willing to leave our lives. That's because she's a good girl."

"Still, the child he gave birth to is an illegitimate child!" shouted Salsa.

They did not realize that the neighbors had come to hear the noise.

"Stop! Dania is not an illegitimate child, Ma'am!"Kartika screeched with a great shaking voice.

Salsa grinned and looked at Kartika sharply.

"So, what is a suitable name for a child born outside a legal marriage if not an illegitimate child?!"

"Shut up Salsa, or I'll rip your mouth off later!" exclaimed Rivan emotion.

Salsa squeaked, as she saw the crowd, deliberately the woman came out.

"Ladies and gentlemen, as long as you know, the woman inside is the usurper of the husband, the second wife, the cheap woman!" screech of Salsa.

Rivan immediately went out and pulled the Salsa in. Lucky RT chairman immediately came and entered by breaking through the crowd of people.

"Heh! What is this? Disperse ... Disperse!" he exclaimed.

The crowd dispersed with loud cheers.
