Morning, 02.15 WIB
The quiet atmosphere made the knocking on the door sound so loud that it woke Clara's sleep at night. When Clara turned around, he could only feel the bolster.
"Where's my husband?" Clara thought.
With sleepy eyes, Clara walked outside while wearing a sweater.
Knock.. Tock.. Tock..
"Who comes at this time of night?" Clara asked herself.
Clara was very surprised when she opened the bedroom door and saw Adrian the husband was very panicked. His hands squeezed the hair on top of his head, his body was shaking and his face was pale. Clara approached Riadi.
"Adrian, what are you doing? Who comes at this time of night?" asked Clara as she sat beside Adrian.
Adrian just shook his head as if he was signaling Clara not to open the door.
"Honey, answer me! Who is outside? Let me see!"
With a slightly high tone Clara asked the question for the second time. But Adrian still refused to answer and could only cry in fear.
"No Clara, no! Clara please don't open that door!" Adrian pulled Clara's hand until she fell.
Clara was completely confused and didn't know what to do. The knocking on the door continued.
"Mr. Adrian! Please open the door, sir! I know you are in. I count to three. I will break down your door if you still won't let us in!"
The man's shout made Clara very curious and frightened. Then he released his hand from Adrian's grip. Clara ran away from Adrian to open the door.
"One ... two ... three ..." shouted a man outside.
They managed to break down Adrian and Clara's door.
ARGH!
Clara also fell because she collided with the door of the house they had broken down. Enter three men wearing black leather jackets and wearing hats. Two of the three people entered with a gun pointing a gun and searched the entire house.
"Wake up ma'am, are you Mr. Adrian's wife?" asked one of the men holding the brown folder.
The man helped Clara to stand up and immediately asked where Adrian was.
"Father, who?" asked Clara in a voice choked with sobs.
"I am from the police. I will take my husband to the police station about him being involved in a drug abuse case."
The policeman showed evidence of his arrest warrant.
"What, sir? there's no way my husband would do such a thing."
Clara was very surprised by what the police said. He did not believe all the words of the police even though it was proven by this arrest.
Duar~~
The sound of gunfire from behind the house sounded so loud that one by one the neighbors began to arrive.
Clara and the police, who were about to talk, immediately ran towards the back door of the house. There was seen Adrian who fell holding his right leg. The two policemen were forced to shoot Adrian because he was trying to escape. Clara ran fast to her beloved husband.
"Ma, my goodness. Your leg hurt."
The police managed to arrest Adrian and take him to the Pelita Hospital to treat gunshot wounds. After that they took Riadi to the Police Station for questioning.
Clara panicked and called her mother. He told all the events that had just happened to him and Adrian.
"Hello ma'am, I'll leave the children first, okay. Tomorrow you don't have to take them home first," said Clara.
"What's wrong Clara? What are you doing?"
Suddenly, Clara's voice made her mother immediately run out of the room because beside her were Tiara and Gio, Clara's children and Adrian.
"Adrian ... Adrian was arrested by the police."
Clara broke into tears when she told her mother what had happened this morning.
"Clara, is this really what you're talking about? You're not kidding, are you?" mother asked.
"That's right, ma'am, that's why tomorrow the children don't have to go home first, ma'am. I want to meet Mas Riadi at the police station."
Clara walked to close all the doors of the house and did not pay attention to the residents who came to ask questions. A blank stare followed Clara into the room.
"Mas Adrian ..." shouted Clara.
Police station
"Mas Riadi. Why are you doing all this? Didn't you think about me and the kids when you got into this problem? I was really devastated, Mas,"
That was the first question Ckara asked her husband. Clara was devastated to see Adrian wearing an orange prison shirt with handcuffs. Sitting opposite Adrian at the police station was something Clara had never imagined before.
Adrian was proven to use drugs. Not only using it, he is also involved in the circulation of these illicit goods. Adrian has been targeted by the Police for the last three months.
Yes, that's Adrian. A man who fell into the abyss because of the pressure of the life he lived. A life that can be said to be in a state where he is required to continue to earn a living for his wife and children.
Adrian experienced mental stress due to his dismissal at one of the companies where he worked at that time. He didn't dare tell me that he'd been out of work for the past year.
"Honey, I'm really sorry for everything that has happened in our family. I hope after all your questions have been answered, you don't just walk away. I mean wait for me to come home."
Then Adrian answered all the questions. In detail he conveyed it with great regret. Clara knew what Adrian meant. That Adrian hopes that Clara will believe and understand the situation then, now and in the future.
"I don't know, Mas, I love you very much. What should I do now? Your seven years in prison is not a short time. And again, I don't know what you will say later about our marriage. You opened an old wound that almost melted Mas. "
Clara let go of her husband's hand. He tidied up Adrian's messy hair. Clara took a deep breath and resigned herself to all of this.
Clara really couldn't stand the sight of her husband. I couldn't bear to look at Adrian's face which was full of sad tears. Clara left the police station.
"I'm leaving, Mas, take care of your health. If you want me to fight for this marriage, at least you can improve yourself. I hope you get enlightened there."

“This is all a nightmare. How can a man who has been living under the same roof with me do something that disappoints me?” Clara thought.
When she came home from the police station, Clara looked at herself in the mirror. It's empty. Now Clara has to struggle alone to support her children.
"God, what can I do?"
ARGH!
Clara screamed and slammed her cell phone down.
