The campaign activity organized by Liam Sandega was successfully held with great fanfare in Tsurayya City Park. Thousands of people attended. Dania, who was pregnant, came with Liam to support her husband.
"Thank you all for coming tonight. I am truly honored to be expected by thousands of people." Liam immediately walked up to the podium and took the attention of everyone in the room with a microphone in his hand.
"I assure you that all of you who have accepted my invitation tonight will not regret it because I have a gift for all of you. You can get my gift for FREE!" Liam said with a broad smile. His words struck an immediate chord with the congregation.
"I know that as a leader I have to improve the welfare of the people! As a leader, I must put the affairs of the people above all else! So if there is anyone my wife should be jealous of, the answer is the PEOPLE!"
The crowd roared with laughter. Immediately they chanted the same phrase in support of Liam Sandega.
"LIAM SANDEGA MAYOR 2024!!!"
"Liam!" In the midst of the crowd chanting in support of Liam, a woman's voice suddenly appeared. Worse, the source of the voice walked over and joined Liam at the podium.
She was a thin woman with dull, unkempt skin, dressed very shabbily. In her arms was a sleeping baby covered in a long batik cloth. "Liam, I gave birth to your child!"
Of course, the woman's words instantly silenced the roar of the crowd. Everyone who witnessed it felt very surprised and confused. Didn't Liam already have a wife, Dania Basman? Even his wife was pregnant.
"Why don't you come back to the village? How could you leave me alone until I give birth?"
Dania felt an immediate cramp in her stomach as she heard the stranger's confession. Dania was both shocked and angry. She struggled to her feet and approached the woman. "Who are you?" She snapped.
The young pregnant woman ignored the pain in her stomach from the contractions of her shock. The only thing that mattered to her right now was the strange woman. Who was she, where did she come from to suddenly appear in front of her and the entire community and claim to be her husband's wife?!
"I am Liam Sandega's wife!" The stranger replied very boldly.
Of course, her answer made Dania's chest feel tight, as if an invisible object was squeezing her heart. "W-what did you say?"
"Yes, I'm the woman Liam left for almost a year! Liam left me while I was pregnant." Suddenly the woman's voice trembled. She showed Dania her baby who was fast asleep in her arms, "But until our child was born, Liam had not returned to me."
