Breaking the Promise
Farah Maulida

“Far, wait!” Shouted Tomy, running towards Farah who was walking fast.

Farah did not look at the source of the voice. He knew the owner of the voice, therefore, he did not turn his head and kept walking fast, until it was like running.

“Far.” Tomy chased after his wife who kept running in the hallway of the hospital.

For more than three days Farah did not come home and there was no news at all. It makes Tomy restless and always looking for him, even every day he waits in front of the practice room his wife works. However, Farah always had the sense to avoid her husband. Farah was determined to end her marriage. Although maybe Tomy will refuse, but Farah will sue him first.

Tomy ran faster, until his steps began to be close to the wife. After getting closer to Farah who did not want to stop his steps, he immediately pulled Farah's arm from behind.

“You avoided me?” Tomy asked annoyed.

“We're done, Mas.” Farah tried to take off Tomy's hand.

“What does it mean?” Tomy's question didn't understand.

“Hah? What do you mean you say? You pretend you don't know. Don't you know?” Ask Farah.

“I really don't know, Far. You haven't come home since Saturday. I tried calling and texting, but your phone was never active. Wh why? What's my fault?” Tomy asks who does not know, if Farah already knows the pregnancy of his second wife.

Previously, Tomy promised Farah, even though he married his second wife named Diva because of the wishes of the mother who was very sick. He will not touch the woman, and will divorce her when her mother's condition improves. Tomy did fulfill his promise, one year he had his second marriage, but Diva was never touched, because Tomy was more often with Farah. But two months ago, Farah and the hospital team were assigned to Singapore for one week to survey a fast and accurate cervical cancer detection device, newly launched by the country, then, at that time, Tomy was trapped by the cradle of Diva supported by her own mother, until finally Diva pregnant with Tomy's six-week-old child.

Tomy always covers the pregnancy of the Diva from Farah. He did not want Farah to be angry because he had broken his promise to his wife. He never thought Farah would leave him, because he believed Farah loved him very much.

Farah found out Diva was pregnant when she came to this hospital to check the womb one week ago. Although the woman checked with another doctor, but it was not difficult for Farah to find out what the woman was doing here, as she saw Diva sitting alone in the waiting room.

When Diva finds out she is pregnant, Farah's entire world collapses. She could no longer believe her husband.he wanted to ask Tomy for an explanation that day, but she refused to open her mouth. He just behaved normally and no longer wrestled spoiled to the husband.

“Please release my hand!” Farah shouted at her husband.This was the first time Farah let out a voice with a high tone.

Eight years they were married but there was never a big fight, not even a small fight. The figure of Farah who is spoiled and jolly, can always melt the atmosphere. Tomy can never be angry at his wife, because Farah's attitude is sometimes annoying, but it makes Tomy laugh.

“OK. But I need an explanation.” Tomy let go of the check.

Farah took her breath. “In the face, Far. The more you dodge the longer the finish.” Farah murmured in the heart.

“Okay, we're talking all over lunch. I don't want us to be a spectacle here.” Farah answered and turned her back to walk first.

His shoulder deliberately nudged hard on Tomy's shoulder. While Tomy stared at the back that was walking quickly in front of him. Just this time, he saw Farah's cold and haughty attitude towards him.

Farah stepped quickly into a cafe on the ground floor of the hospital. Tomy also walked quickly to align himself with his wife. Sometimes he turned to the woman he loved, but not once did Farah look at him. The woman kept walking with a straight forward view.

Tomy begins to fret, her heart wondering if Farah knew about Diva's pregnancy? But how did that woman know this? All the possibilities revolve around Tomy's head.

Arriving at the cafe, Farah shifts her own chair. Tomy moved the chair closer to her. However, Farah chose her own chair.

After Farah sat down, she took her breath back and said, “I already know everything, Mas.”

Tomy's heart stopped for a moment. What he was worried about happened, too.

“Know what?” Tanya Tomy.

“One week ago, Diva to this hospital.she checked her contents. Congratulations yes, Mas.” Farah stretched out her hand and smiled, even though her heart wanted to cry again.

Tomy. He saw the helping hand, but Tomy did not want to return Farah's congratulations.

“Hah.” Farah turned her eyes.

“There is a husband trapped by his wife, Mas. Especially the bed. Ga in the trap also you have the right to touch it kok.” Said Farah again.

“Far, I love you and will always love you. Diva means nothing to me.”

“But she's the mother of your son. Now he'll mean something to you, Mas.”

“Far.”

“Mas.”

Both of them took a rough breath.

“Already, Mas. Maybe it is our destiny to get here.” Farah.

Tomy shook her head. “I beg you, forgive me. I can't leave you alone. Later who will hug you from behind while sleeping, rub your hair when tired and help you if you need something.”

Farah and Tomy have been dating since High School. At that time he had just entered the school and Tomy became the head of the osis oriented to his underclassmen. Tomy liked Farah from the first time she saw him. He starts to approach Farah and ends up dating. Tomy's attitude is nurturing, making Farah does not need anyone, especially when both of Farah's parents died in a plane crash. Tomy is always there for her and the spoiled Farah gets more dependent, especially after they get married. All of her work is always done by her husband.

Farah laughs. “I can live without you, Mas.you don't worry. See, I could be three days without you.”

Tomy stared intently at the wife. He let his breath go.

“For three days where do you live? With whom?” Tomy asked, breaking down the topic they were talking about.

“It's none of your business. I told you already. I can live without you.”

Instantly, Tomy's heart slipped. She's sad.

Farah. “I've filed for divorce.”

“What? No? That's not possible. You're kidding.”

Farah nodded. “I've registered our divorce.”

Tomy changed seats. Now, he was close to Farah.

“You can't decide this one-sided, Far.”

“Sorry, Mom. I'mtired. I don't want to be lied to anymore. Once you lie, there will be a second, third, and so on.” Farah said firmly.

Tomy clutched both of his wife's shoulders. “There's nothing I mean to lie to you, Far. Really am. I'm covering this up because I want to keep your feelings. I know I was wrong, but this mistake was not entirely a betrayal. I want you to understand my position.”

Now Tomy grasped both hands Farah located between his thighs.

“Far, I beg you. Give me some time until Diva gives birth. Then, I'll divorce her and we can babysit the kid. I'm sure you can love my son like your own son, because you love children so much.”

Farah fell silent.

“I beg. I love you so much, Farah Maulida. I don't want us to be apart. Please.” Tomy shed tears.
