ATIQA
FLASHBACKS (3)

Dawn finds Sherly leaving with Rio in their sixth year of marriage. Rio picked up Sherly after work. At that time Fajar wanted to surprise his wife. Dawn wants to take Sherly to dinner together at their favorite place.

The house was thoroughly tested. Just two days ago they made up after the cold war. Sherly refuses to have children and his wife begins to be affected by her parents and family.

"Your salary is not enough for me to go to the salon! My salary is bigger than your salary! until now we still live with Mama Papa. You're not ashamed? Change your profession! become a cake entrepreneur or become an employee in a large company. Your salary is not enough to make me earn! So you keep asking us to program the kids? You're crazy! what do we want our children to eat?" murmur Sherly.

His patience in accepting the simple Dawn could no longer be preserved. His best friend, his office friend, his school friend used to be different fate with him. Their husbands were successful, earning big, big houses, luxury vehicles. But his self who incidentally has rich parents is not enough for him.

"Indeed my income is smaller than yours, but it's very inappropriate for you as a wife to demean me! I've asked you to get out of this house, we're independent, but you don't want to. And until any time, I will still be a teacher! I guarantee our son can live a decent life. Don't underestimate me!" bright Dawn. Very disappointed in his wife's words. His pride has been trampled.

"You deserve me to be inferior! my husband is not responsible! you are of no use. You can't touch me!" - pointing at her husband and pointing at yourself - "And the house you said it was, not our house but a rental house. Map contract. I don't want to! i'm disgusted! don't make life worthy of our child! it is still this way now. I'm ashamed!" murmur Sherly.

Dawn clenched both of her hands, holding back the anger that she felt had already reached its peak.

And today Fajar saw his wife picked up Rio, his ex-girlfriend.

Dawn follows where Sherly and Rio go. Both of them entered the restaurant. Dawn waited in the parking lot and tried to contact his wife.

Already ringing to five, Sherly did not pick up her phone. Dawn kept trying, until Dawn finally saw Sherly walking away from Rio, then picked up the phone from him.

"Hello beb... What's wrong? I still meet with the team. I went home malem. You're not papa, are you having dinner with Mama Papa at home?" sherly said directly without first hearing what her husband said.

"Okay, no papa," replied Dawn. His eyes were still following Sherly's agitated movements.

"Yaudah, I'm meeting again. This is me fighting to get out of the room just to pick up your phone, baby," Sherly added. He tried to convince Dawn to believe.

"I'm sorry, I don't know if you're busy. I'm gonna take a shower first. Be careful on the road, later." said Fajar. He no longer wanted to linger in the theater. Sherly immediately turned off Fajar's phone and approached Rio again.

"Who? your husband?" ask Rio. Sherly nodded.

"How else do you still survive with that poor man?" ask Rio.

"Don't say that. He's still my husband" Sherly replied, pulling up a chair, sitting next to Rio. Then kiss the cheek of his ex-girlfriend.

From a distance the dawn is getting hotter. But he has to hold it. Dawn took some photos for her to give to her in-laws.

After dinner, Sherly and Rio did not return home immediately. They both turned to a hotel. Dawn took off the helmet and slammed it into the asphalt.

Sherly and Rio had completely crossed the line. The dawn followed silently inside. He pretended to sit with the magazine covering his face. Observing the motion of the two who were ordering a room.

"Suck!" aspir Fajar lirih.

Sherly and Rio headed for the elevator. Dawn followed from the elevator to the right, after seeing the destination of the floor they both were on.

"Floor 4." murmured Dawn.

Dawn finds Sherly and Rio entering room five from the right side. Dawn followed them silently, while continuing to take pictures with her cell phone. Until the two entered the room, Dawn approached the door.

Disappointment mixed with anger felt by Dawn at this time. He knocked on the door many times and was quite loud. Sherly and Rio who were kissing were shocked. The voice of Dawn called Sherly so clearly heard.

"That's my husband. How's this?" ask Sherly, she's scared.

"You don't want us to face it. You are tired of him too. It's easier and faster than I thought," Rio clasped Sherly's hand tightly and nodded.

Sound of door lock opened. Dawn instantly pushed that door, lunging at Rio. Sherly was hysterical.

"Suckers! that bastard! goddammit!" those curses came out from the mouth of Dawn, while continuously beating Rio.

"Aahhh .. don't! no, beb! you can be prosecuted later. He's a great lawyer" Sherly exclaimed, pulling on Dawn's right arm that was about to hit Rio again in the face.

Dawn looked hard at Sherly and then threw his wife's hand. Dawn backed off, panting.

Rio was helped by Sherly. Her lips revealed an understated smile. Dawn hardened its jaws, its hands still clenched.

"It's not that easy!" sela Fajar's. Even though he knows his wife is having an affair, Dawn will forgive Sherly. He keeps his pride in front of his parents and in-laws.

"You think Sherly's parents don't know about our relationship? you're too stupid! later this month Sherly will file a divorce application. So what can you do?" Rio.

"Sher .." said Fajar, staring at Sherly. He did not expect all this to happen. He used to desperately defend Sherly in front of his parents, but tonight it's all ruined. His father-in-law also participated in his wife's affair.

"I can't be the same as you. I'm tired, I'm tired. I want to live more worthy of Rio. He can be happy for me" said Sherly, holding Rio's left arm.

"You can do all this to me, Sher? after I fought you in front of my father, my mother," Dawn no longer knew how to. Her marriage is completely ruined.

"Sherly is now pregnant with my son!" Rio.

"What?? Sher ..." Dawn surprised. Sherly.

"He doesn't want to get pregnant with your child. You will not be able to bear all. Realistically, with a mediocre income, what would Sherly expect from you? there's none. So better, decide right now!" rio's words hurt Dawn very much.

During this one month, Sherly always refused if invited to have sex. In fact, Sherly and Rio want to have children, even though Sherly still has a husband.

Dawn screamed, squeezed his hair and punched the wall.

"Okay, I got you!" fajar then went out of the hotel room. Sherly hugged Rio.

Their divorce was quick. All the work in the religious court is done. Their six-year marriage is over. Fajar resigned from a private school in Bandung. He returned to the capital.

His pain was betrayed plus news of Atiqah. Mr. Bondan is dead, while Atiqah lives in Jogja as a Doctor without a husband and child. Dawn is more compassionate on the fate of Atiqah.

For one year of her divorce, Fajar was offered a job as a language teacher at the South Korean International School in Incheon. Dawn steady and accept the offer.

Bu Siti and Pak Aji strengthen their son for one year after the divorce. And at this time, they gave the spirit to rise to Dawn, the only son of the Adhiwilaga family puppet.

"Bapak Sama Ibuk always pray Mas from here. May your child be the only one there. Don't be traumatized, Mum!" said Siti, embrace and then kiss the forehead of Dawn. They took Dawn to the airport.

*****

Dawn can only continue to be grateful to be able to go through everything well. News Sherly gave birth to her second child slightly sliced her heart. During the six years she was married to him, Sherly always refused to have children. One and a half years ago, his ex-wife had two children.

And the day when meeting Atiqah in an Asian mini market, became the beginning of their meeting.

Dawn sits on the terrace of the mini market, after buying a bottle of drink and kimbap. Lunch is always like that. Sitting while staring at the student students from various countries walking by.

What attracted one attention, a person he knew first suddenly appeared from the left direction of the mini market. Without looking to the right and to the left, Atiqah entered the mini market, passing Dawn which was still dumbfounded and his eyes continued to follow Atiqah until inside.

Atiqah pushed the door, after finishing shopping.

"Ehem ... has become a doctor, do not know me anymore," chirped Fajar from a row of chairs terrace mini market. Atiqah turned his head, because Fajar spoke Indonesian and mentioned about the profession of Doctor.

"Cook ..." Atiqah pointed to the Dawn.

"What is it? sit down first. Chat, long time no see," he asked.

Atiqah confused, why can they meet in a place far from their own country.

"Here sit! even bengong aja. How you doing?" Dawn drew Atiqah's hand to sit next to her.

"Good .. good," replied Atiqah, he was still too shocked.

"Aren't you asking me?" tanyanya, pinched the cheek of Atiqah. Atiqah rubbed her cheek while continuing to stare at her interlocutor.

"You're rich in ghost squirming. So very," he added again. Atiqah.

Seriate...
