ENDLESS HALLWAY

ENDLESS HALLWAY
CHAPTER 112: ACTING WISELY


In thrilling circumstances it was still time to write a letter to Nabila. The letter was placed on the middle room table. On the envelope is written in large letters so that it is easy to see Nabila. After that he hurriedly ran away by driving a car.


Nabila awakens when the sound of Cevin's car leaves the yard. The woman squirmed as she moved her hand to the side. Does she mean her husband still sleeps next to her?


But Nabila touched nothing but the blanket. Then he turned his body. She saw her husband was no longer beside her. I was surprised and hurriedly woke up.


Is Cevin really gone? Why didn't he go wake me up? He usually leaves after nine. Because so curious, Nabila quickly put on her nightgown and jumped down.


"Mas Cevin!" call him while walking into the middle room. Perhaps her husband was still sitting in the living room drinking coffee. Turns out Nabila didn't get her husband there. With uncertain, confused and anxious feelings, he ran to the garage. Her husband's car is gone. Now she was convinced that the one who had just left was her husband.


Nabila immediately returned to the middle room. While brushing her hair that covered her forehead was running lethargic. On the living room table he saw a letter. Then hurry to take it. A piece of paper with ink was read. Heart's pounding.


***


For : Good balance.


Being a man who breaks promises and vows, is a despicable and shameful deed. I promised and swore I would never touch your body. Especially to take away your sanctity. I beg you for thousands of pardons, for I forgot myself last night. I don't remember who you really are. Because in my mind I was too inclined to Balqis. That night you were as if Balqis had never been present in my loneliness.


Nabila, I beg you to take care of whatever I leave you. Whether it's a house or things that exist. I left because I could not bear the shame of my actions. I feel like a man who can't keep promises and vows. But don't label myself as a man who would rape your right to freedom.


I beg you not...!!!


Because it was all out of my consciousness until it took away your sanctity. May God forgive all my mistakes.


Nabila, I went to find myself. Seeking happiness. If God still gives long life, one day we will be able to meet again.


From : Cevin.


***


With trembling hands Nabila folded the letter she finished reading it. A single tear slowly fell on his cheek. Slowly he sat down in the chair. It still has not disappeared last night that was so beautiful and memorable, but has turned into sadness. Still growing love and affection for her husband, but already left. What fate is this.


The bitterness that will incarnate or live is just waiting for a husband who went somewhere. When will her husband return?


Lusi went back into his room. The clothes Cevin wore last night were still strewn over the bed. Clothes that smell of liquor. With all of his heart sad, the clothes he put on.


Kissed...!!!


Is it too late to love my husband? Why didn't I love and love her from the first moment? Why did he have to make a promise and swear? Oh Lord, forgive me all my sins, all this time I have wasted my husband.


***


As long as Nabila lived in a household with Cevin never visited his parents. During that time, he only expressed the emotion of hunting Berry. And not minding the situation of her husband. No matter what her husband does. They only obey the will of their own hearts. Chasing pleasure without thinking about the consequences. But after Cevin left, Nabila realized all his despicable deeds. As a wife, she never paid attention to her husband.


On a sunny afternoon, Nabila accidentally came to his parents' house. The arrival of the woman raises questions for them. For the woman came with a sad and moody face.


"You had a fight with your husband?" scold his mother.


Nabila. Her crying can not be dammed anymore Father and mother so confused to see Nabila sobbing.


"Why should?" His mother could not wait to find out.


"Mas Cevin left Nabila" he said hoarsely.


"Maybe there's some business out of town?"


Say Mother.


Nabila.


"So leave you because of what?" Ask the mother to know.


"Because of breaking his promises and vows."


Reply Nabila.


Father and Mother Nabila looked at each other. They were astonished.


"What promises and vows?"


Ask Dad.


When silent. There is a shame in expressing it.


"Tell me frankly, Nabila," urged his father. Nabila was still silent. "Come, say."


"After Nabila married, ask Cevin to promise. Promise not to touch my body or have intercourse like any other husband and wife. And Cevin wants to promise. Swear not to do that," said Nabila did not dare to look at his parents.


Both Nabila's parents were astonished.


"Any," his father murmured. "In the punishment of marriage in such a way is a sin. Marriage is the divine sunnah and the will of humanity, spiritual and physical needs. Sunnatullah, falan tadjida lisunnatillahi tabdila. It has become a sunnatullah, that everything is made God in pairs, as well as humans are made God of two types, male and female," said his father.


"But at first Nabila didn't love Cevin's mas."


Answer Nabila.


"And now it is?" Ask the mother.


Nabila silently bit her finger. He was worried and could not say anything. But his attitude is not as opposed as it used to be. For in his heart has been love. Feeling sad and lost forsaken by her husband.


"Be aware, that in order to foster a happy household, both parties must uphold their respective rights and obligations. Mutual respect. Fair-spoken. Help each other. Mutual counsel can give and receive and does not want to win alone But full of understanding and love for the pleasure of the Loving and Loving God," continued his father.


Nabila.


"When the obligation of a wife does not make it difficult and burdensome for the husband, but be patient and patient. A good wife is one who can know the will of her husband before he says it and can give before he asks. Try to relieve and calm the situation, if there are signs of the husband in distress," said his mother.


"When you feel guilt and sin, Mah."


Answer Nabila.


"So now you've realized, haven't you? Cevin deserves that you love. It is good to be an ideal husband. Or maybe you'd still want to expect Berry?"


Father said.


Nabila.


"You're resigned and you intend to be Cevin's good wife?"


Followed his father again.


Nabila nodded again.


"But not because Cevin has hired you forcibly, right?"


Ask mother.


"When you don't feel forced."


Answer Nabila.


Nabila's father and mother exchanged smiles. Amused too.


"good. Then we go to Cevin's parents now. We're delving into this matter," asked her father.


***


For the first time Nabila with both parents came to the house of Cevin's parents. On an afternoon that happened to be the whole family was gathering in the living room. They're talking about Queena's wedding.


Family excitement suddenly stopped because of receiving guests. The guest was none other than Nabila with his parents. And their arrival raises a question, especially Nabila came without Cevin.


They shook hands and sat together in the living room.


"A month later we did not meet. Looks like something serious huh?" asked his father Cevin to Nabila's father.


"On Cevin and Nabila."


Answer Nabila's father.


"Did they fight?"


Ask Cevin's dad.


"According to Nabila quarreled anyway not," Nabila's mother chimed in with a smile. Nabila was embarrassed. Don't listen to Queena. Because he must have known what the problem was. Nabila's mother began to tell her problems plainly to the Cevin family. With somewhat laughable tones they exchanged thoughts. Because the thing that became the problem is considered very unique and funny. Cevin left because he broke his promises and vows


It's only now Queena's turn to start talking about Cevin's relationship with Balqis. Everyone in the room was thinking about Balqis. They did not expect Cevin to go that far as to act outside their knowledge.


"How to deal with this?" Cevin's father asked the people present in the room for consideration.


"Is there any chance Cevin should have two wives?" suhut Ibu Nabila who does not seem willing his son to be pitted.


"If according to my knowledge, Balqis has always refused to be made a wife by Cevin mas," Queena chimed in.


"So what about the fate of the baby to be born?"


The middle-aged woman looked at her son Nabila. The one being stared at is just bowed. Then her gaze turned to her husband who seemed to be asking for consideration.


"Do we have the heart to separate Balqis from her disabled husband? If we do that, where's our sense of thuggery?" nabila's father opened his voice.


"Now the problem depends only on Balqis. Whether to marry Cevin or not. In this case we must act wisely."


Obviously Cevin's dad.


"I think Balqis still refused. I know very well his nature that is not easily influenced and has principles. I have seen her many times, and she says she will remain faithful to her husband. The problem of the baby he contains, is hope in his old age. Because her husband is unable to give children," Queena said honestly.


"Then we meet him. Let all the problems can be finished well," said Cevin's mother.


"But not now."


Said Nabila's mother.


"Wait for what else? Later the problem could be more protracted."


Obviously Cevin's mother.


"We'd better wait until the baby in the womb is born."


Reply to Nabila's mother again.


The atmosphere became silent for a moment because each considered what was the best way. Don't ruin Cevin's domestic life with Nabila.
