Whether what Benedict had to do when right in front of him, his wife was hugged and kissed on the forehead by another man, whom he knew very well that the two loved each other.
He could see that his wife still seemed to love Pradikta, there was no resistance from her as her body was hugged and her forehead kissed.
His wife refused several times when he hugged her.
Benedict looked at his wife with a disappointed look, in front of his eyes his wife betrayed him, even though his wife knew he hated betrayal.
Did his wife do it on purpose?
Did his wife intentionally make him angry?
Does his wife want him to let go?
What's he supposed to do now?
That's the question that Benedict has, what with having two children, can not make his wife love him, as much as the love he gives.
After Pradikta's ordered ojek came, and the man left, Ayudia came to her husband.
The woman hugged Benedict's arm, and invited him to walk into the house.
There was no talk until the two entered their bedroom.
Ayudia entered the bathroom, about ten minutes, the woman came out with a towel wrapped around her body and head.
Benedict just silently looked at his wife who entered the walk in closed, the sound of a hair dryer from there, the man rose to help the woman dry her hair, the thing that had always been his habit, it was as if his subconscious was commanding it.
After making sure his wife's hair was dry, Benedict went out of there to the bed, laying down on his back to his wife.
Before long, there was a hand coiled around the man's stomach, and,
"I'm sorry for everything I did today" Ayudia said, opening the conversation, knowing the man was holding back his anger.
There was no response from Benedict, the man closed his eyes, but the question that had appeared in his mind, now reappeared.
It feels like giving up, he wants to stop loving his wife, his three years of marriage his love is just a one-handed clap, right said Pradikta, he only has the physical of his wife, he only has the physical of his wife, he knew his wife loved him only because he was the husband and father of his children, not the love between the opposite sex.
His wife once said, when the woman learned to love him, he even betrayed her, also when two years ago he hurt his wife physically and psychically.
Has his wife still not forgiven the first two incidents sincerely?
Does a man like himself not deserve the love of someone he loves so much?
All his achievements at a young age mean nothing to his wife.
He was handsome, he was rich, he entered fifty of the richest people in the world but all that was meaningless, he did not get the love of his wife.
Maybe some people say he is stupid, willing to marry a woman who clearly does not give his love, but for the size of a man like himself, he can get any woman he wants.
But again the corner of his heart said, he must defend the woman, his place to come home from all the complexity of the world, women other than his mother, the mother of his children.
The man's eyes glazed over, it felt so tight, his chest hurt
Tears just came out of the corner of his eye, for some reason he could not control it,
Again he cried because of his wife, so much love for her,
Ayudia realized her husband was crying, she tightened her arms, and said sorry words.
"Is it that hard for you to love me Ayudia?"ask Benedict lirih.
"Do I not deserve love from you?"
"Does the existence of children not make you learn to love me?"
"What else should I do to Ayudia so that you can love me?"
"Do I have to give up now?"
"Do I have to let you go? So that you can be with him, so that you can be happy,"
"You know I'm Ayudia, what am I supposed to do? My heart aches, I'm claustrophobic, in front of my eyes you hug the man you love, I'm jealous of Ayudia, I'm jealous, I'm a man whose pride is being trampled on by his own wife and another man,"
"You know what I'm supposed to do?"
Silence struck in the big room, only sobs came out of the husband and wife.
Ayudia still hugged her husband tightly, she did not intend to let go, she said,
The woman pulled her husband's body to face him, both looking.
Ayudia wiped away the tears on her husband's cheek, and then she kissed the forehead gently, as if expressing her affection to the father of her children.
Then a kiss in both eyes revealed that the woman had always been faithful to her husband.
Lastly Ayudia kissed her husband's lips, then*********, there was no reply from the man, there was no reply from him,
The woman put her tongue in her husband's mouth, and had not yet received a reply from her husband, she was silent.
Ayudia released the link of the lips, she looked into the eyes of her husband, from the gaze as if describing, so great love and disappointment tucked there.
Ayudia touched the man's cheek tenderly, "sorry," one word, which had already been spoken from the woman's lips.
"Ayudia, I give you time to think, do you still want to be with me and the kids, or do you leave here, and maybe you choose him, she said, I'm gone maybe a year I'll be back and after a year I'll ask you the same question again, I hope you think well while I'm gone,"Benedict finally said something that went against his heart.
Ayudia shook her head, "i won't choose anything" she said.
Benedict got up from the bed and sat down on the side of the bed and looked at his wife, "what do you mean? Do you want to live a home that is not based on love? Aren't you tormented for not loving your husband? I give you Ayudia time, to choose, I will accept whatever your decision is, after I come from the island, I will release you if you want to get away from me, I won't force you to be by my side, do we need to make a covenant?"
Ayudia who got up sat facing her husband, the woman immediately hugged the man tightly, "i won't choose anything,"
Benedict let go of his wife's embrace, "what do you mean? Do you want to stay married to me while your heart is for another man? I can't be Ayudia, I'm a man, wherever men don't like to share with other men including his heart, I give you a year to reflect, ' he said, I'll wait for your answer after I get back, "after saying that, Benedict gets up, and walks into his study, it looks like he needs some wine for a diversion.
But not until the connecting door, his body was hugged from behind, it was his wife, the woman said an apology repeatedly.
Benedict let go of the hug, he faced his wife, he looked down, then looked at the woman sharply, "sorry words can't bring back everything Ayudia, you betrayed me before my eyes,"
Ayudia stared no less sharply, "what about you? Have you never done anything worse than me? I was just hugged and kissed by Dikta's forehead just once, what about you and Mbak Lusi? Can you imagine how I felt then? How many times have you been hugged and kissed, not on the forehead, but on the cheeks and even your lips, am I silent right? When we were newly married, you were engaged to another woman, isn't that called betrayal?"
"But I don't feel the same way about them, but you? You love her Ayudia, that's the problem,"
"Can you read my mind? Don't know you,"
"You seem to enjoy when he hugs and kisses you on the forehead" Benedict said.
Ayudia smiled her smile, "Benedict Lo does not know anything about me, so do not be pretentious, if you want us to separate, okay do not have to wait a year, so do not need to know, right now we can separate as well, I don't care, the important thing is, the kids come with me" he said rudely.
Benedict widened his eyes, hearing a rude remark coming out of his wife's mouth, "can't Ayudia, you can't take the kids, they're my kids, if you want to separate, you can't, wait another year I'm back,"
"Normally mending now we just split,"
"Do you want to go back with him?"
"If so why? Trouble for Lo? This is Lo, right? I'm united with people who, according to Lo, I love, so don't have to wait a year, I know Lo wants to lock me up again, mending me unplug now, I bring the kids,"said Ayudia passed to the connecting door of her children's room.
