Aksara For Arsyilla
Sandra's Life After Divorce
A dozen Years Ago
Raising children alone when the husband languished in prison for so many years makes Sandra like a single mother for Ravendra. It could even be said that after returning with Darren, Sandra's life was far from happy. Starting from her pregnancy that occurred due to an accident, the marriage that was only held at the Mushola Society Institute was very simple, underwent pregnancy, and gave birth alone.
It got to a point where Sandra experienced a drastic increase in body weight while pregnant with Ravendra. More painful because when Darren was out of prison, the man seemed to dislike Sandra with such a large body weight. Every time you have a husband and wife relationship, Darren always says something that hurts Sandra's feelings.
“You are very heavy. Well, if you are above me like gini makes me short of breath,” said Darren first.
As a mentally stable woman, plus, just a few months later, Darren is back in prison because the man kidnapped Aksara by leaving Aksara just like that in a park, making Sandra even more disappointed. Sandra had already asked Darren to take her revenge with Kanaya. However, what happened was that Darren again injured Aksara and made the 2-year-old Aksara separate from Kanaya and Bhishma.
The judge ruled that Darren would be sentenced to 8 years in prison. In the years in which Darren is serving his sentence back in prison, Sandra is still trying to survive and continues to focus on raising Ravendra. However, once at one point Ravendra asked about where the figure of his Papa.
“Ma, Vendra's friends all have Papa loh ... Then, where's Ravendra's Papa? When can Ravendra meet Papa, Ma?”
To be honest, it was the most difficult question Sandra could answer. Telling the truth that her father was in prison was also impossible. However, Ravendra who is increasingly large also often ask where the existence of his Papa now.
“Papa's on business, Vendra. Vendra's at home the same Mama well. Play with Mama,” Sandra replied to her son.
Sandra did not explain where Darren is at the moment. According to Sandra, Ravendra was too small to accept that her father was in prison. Year after year passed and Sandra often switched the conversation whenever Ravendra asked the figure of her Papa.
Until one day, so even the 8-year period passed, when Darren finally got out of prison. Ravendra did not recognize the figure of his father. Ravendra who saw Darren was crying. Just carried by his own father did not want. The household life of Sandra and Darren is still preserved. Both are like strangers to each other.
Until a year later, Darren said that there were other women he liked. A young businessman who is believed to be able to bring Darren to try his luck again in the business world. For that, Sandra prefers to file a divorce lawsuit against her husband.
“Better, let's just end this marriage right here. I did not ask for property gono-gini, only I asked for custody of Ravendra,”, said Sandra at the time.
Yes, Sandra did not ask about gono-gini property at all. In fact, for his daily life he gets more from his own work and also the support of the Jaya Wardhana family. While in prison, Darren practically did not support Sandra and her son. To that end, Sandra decided to separate.
“Good .. I don't mind.” Darren retaliates and the man has no objection to Sandra's divorce request.
Sandra never told Ravendra anything bad. For this reason, Sandra is sure to be close to Darren which makes Ravendra consider Aksara is his rival.

Now …
“Mama is glad you can behave like this,” said Sandra who was still walking with Ravendra in the shopping center that night.
“What is Ma?” ask Ravendra.
“Do not hold grudges. You can understand the past, and also you do not consider the Aksara as a rival. Believe me, Vendra, living without enemies is fun. So, Mama is certainly happy, Mama's son can think like this,” Mama Sandra told her son.
“Iya Ma .. after all, tired too, Ma .. if you think about why Vendra used to be so hateful with Aksara, Vendra also did not know. Though yes we also rarely met, but why Vendra could easily hate Aksara. Though Aksara himself never disturbed Vendra's life,” I Vendra this time.
Look Mama Sandra who turned a glance to her son, “If your hate has reached the highest level, you do not need a reason to hate someone. Just looking at that person, you already hate it so much. However, now .. Mama fully supports you. Kanaya, Doctor Bhishma, and her children are good people Ravendra. If your father still thinks they're enemies, let it be. That's your Papa's business. However, children do not have to follow what their parents do. Take your own path,” advice Mama Sandra to her son.
“Mama don't regret getting divorced from Papa?” ask Ravendra then to his mother.
“If you think about it, Mama loves your Papa blindly. We were both crazy back then. It's just that, after thinking and revealing everything, Mama does not regret divorcing from your Papa. Because, Mama did not deny the long years away from your Papa, the love in the heart slowly disappeared. Yes, the burning feeling of love no longer exists. For that, we better split up before more hurt because it survives in a hick that is so difficult to defend,” replied Mama Sandra this time.
Ravendra glanced at his mother. The young man took at least one lesson that distance and time did not meet that very long which eventually eroded the feelings of love for Mama and her Papa. Until I got to a point, Mama Sandra asked Papa Darren for a divorce.
“However, you do not follow the path of Mama and Papa. As much as possible, marry the right partner. Live old with your partner,” advice Mama Sandra.
The failure to maintain the household heresy was a major failure experienced by Sandra. For this reason, Sandra advised that Ravendra not to take the road that was passed by her and Darren. However, Sandra wants her son to live a happy and aging life with his partner.
