“Who is the father of the baby?” aji asked, instantly making Asha surprised.
“A–what do you mean? I don't understand at all,” Asha asked back stuttering.
“You need not pretend not to know. You must have understood my point. Just answer my question, who is his father.” Aji is still trying to control her emotions. However, he is not a temprament person. However, it remained that his gaze was sharp towards Asha who was sitting on the bed.
The woman's face was so pale, it was unexpected that it would get such a question as well. He squeezed both of his palms, in order to reduce the fear that was within him. This was not what Asha wanted to hear on her first night. Already several times the woman tried to forget him, but today Aji actually reminded her.
This is not the fault of her husband, however the content will certainly someday be seen. Actually Asha also did not know if she was pregnant, it's just that she suspected something from her body because she felt different. However, the woman did not dare to check on him. Asha was afraid to hear what the result was.
Now the woman hears from others. She also does not experience nausea or cravings like pregnant people in general. It's just that his head is dizzy sometimes. However, it is not too severe, after drinking warm tea definitely back well.
“Why just shut up, answer my question. Who was the father of the baby? Why don't you take responsibility from him? Why did you choose to marry me?”
Again Asha was just silent, not knowing what to say because she was also confused. The dilemma that the woman felt was so great. Aji who saw the enslavement of Asha became even more furious. The man only wanted to hear one name from his wife's mouth, but it seemed Asha was reluctant to say.
“Tell me one name, after that you can be free. You can also marry her, I will not haunt you.”
Asha shook her head, her eyes had already started to tear up. She never thought she would be separated from her husband. For her the marriage was only once in a lifetime and only with Aji her future. The woman did not want anyone else with her. Although currently in his stomach there was another person's son, but to Asha, his father was only Aji.
“Why shake? I just want to know who's the father of the baby in your belly. Who is he?”
“Sorry, forgive me.”
Again the word that came out of Asha's lips, Aji to the point of getting sick of hearing it. The innocent woman in front of him, who he thought was a good woman, was in fact the same as on the outside there. Very clever Asha acting, even his parents believe in him. About the in-laws, whether they know it or not.
“So much is your love for that man, that you don't want to tell me? Are you afraid I'll do something to her? You take it easy, I won't do anything to her. I'll just hold him accountable for you, that's all. You should be thanking me, I'll make sure he'll be responsible to you.”
“I'm sorry, but I can't say it,” replied Asha in a hoarse voice.
The woman tried not to cry, but as an ordinary human being she was already unable to contain herself and finally the tears just flowed, as the pain Asha felt. Moreover, now the shadow reappeared, adding to the wounds in the heart that he had tried to treat. During this time the woman tried alone, until this moment was still the same. Not because no one cared about her, but Asha who did not want to trouble others.
“Why don't you want to say it? Does he not want to be responsible for you? But why are you still protecting her? Are you stupid or what? Just tell me his name, I'll make sure he's responsible for you.”
“Asha!” snapping Aji who instantly made Asha tiptoe.
During his life, only this time he got a knock. Even more sadly it was done by the husband on his first night. A night that would never happen between them. His parents loved him so much, which was why he was never yelled at. Even to speak out loud never.
Aji took a deep breath, trying to control herself. “Now I ask you one more time. I hope you say it honestly, lest you make my patience run out.”
Asha was still silent with her head lowered, she had no intention to answer what her husband was asking. The woman knew that Aji was already on the threshold of his patience. However, whatever the man would do to her, she had already resigned herself. Asha knew that one day she would get this kind of treatment.
Either because of the presence of the baby in the womb or because he is no longer a virgin. The woman was ready to rickshaw the wedding plan was made. At that time he only believed that Aji was a good man and could definitely accept the presence of this baby, but now he knew that his belief was wrong.
“Say who is the father of the baby?”
A few seconds until Asha finally answered by lowering her head. “I'm sorry.”
Again, that word is spoken. Aji clenched her hands tightly. His emotions were really on the tip of the horn, until he vented anger by hitting the makeup mirror that was there, until the glass broke scattered. Asha was shocked and covered both her ears with palms.
The woman's body was shaking so violently. He who used to live a luxurious life and was given sufficiency never once received unpleasant treatment. Now you have to experience something like this.
Aji's back is seen bleeding until it drips on the floor. There was a piece of glass attached there as well. Asha wanted to help her, but her fear was so great that she just kept quiet.
“It turns out your love for him is really big, so you are very trying to cover it. It doesn't matter to me, it's up to you what you do. I won't force it either, but don't blame me if I do something too.”
Aji immediately left the bridal room. Whether she wants to go where, this bridal night should be a historic night for her. However, now everything was destroyed out of form.
Meanwhile, Asha who was in the bridal room could only cry by covering her face with both hands. He really felt guilty because of his stupidity, now his future just crumbled. The only hope now is that Aji will forgive her and continue this marriage. That woman wouldn't be able to do it if this marriage just crumbled.
Asha could not imagine how much anger she would receive later on. He knew very well how his papa character would not remember the land if it was already angry. Just imagining it is already horrifying, somehow later when it happens.
“Yes Allah, only to you the servant begs. The servant has done too much wrong, but you cannot give me happiness. I also want to be happy with my husband and son, regardless of this fetus who is his father, but now my husband is Mas Aji and I want to be with him forever.” Asha prayed with tears growing more and more, she regretted everything that happened in her life.
