HONEY OF MY WIFE'S CHOICE (RUBBY)
Edra's necklace

"By... Where's Brother?" ask Edra.

"Sister, in bed. Lying down with her sweet smile," replied Rubby.

Edra slowly approached his already cold wife's body. His tears flowed profusely, but he quickly wiped, for fear of dirtying Diana's body.

"Dee... Is it time for you to leave? Even Maliq can't name you yet, Dee. But, if this has been your promise, Mas sincere." said Edra, with a kiss Diana's forehead.

The news has spread, the mourners have started to arrive.

"By... Calm down baby, Mom and the others are on their way" Ms Lilis said on the phone.

Rubby could not go out staring at the corpse, just quietly crying in the room with Maliq, who was also fussy. Like, he felt the sadness experienced by everyone in the house.

"By... Not usha go with kemakam, yes. Let Mas, Pak hadi is the same Bik thisah aja." said Edra.

Rubby simply nodded with his poignant gaze.

Edra departed, holding the frontmost tip of the coffin, holding his heart.

He slowly put Diana's body into his final resting place, held her captive, and closed it, little by little, until it was sealed shut.

One by one who drove him home, except for Edra who still survives there. Sitting next to the navel that has a picture of Diana there.

"Why not saying goodbye, Dee. There are no signs that you are leaving. This morning, you were still as usual preparing all my needs, knowing that By was busy. This morning you still gave a cheerful smile to me, Rubby, and Maliq. Why isn't there felling if it's your last smile." she said.

He kissed the tombstone, holding back his tears even though it was painful.

Edra came home feeling empty, empty, and knew the feelings in his heart. Although Rubby came to kiss her hand, but she responded flatly and entered Diana's room.

"Mas... Why why?" ask Rubby from the outside.

"Papa NGO... I want to do it myself." he replied from within.

"By, why?" ask this.

"Mas... Maybe it takes time alone Bik. Let me be sure, at least later if the same father Mother comes, Mas out." replied Rubby, with Maliq in his trunk.

"Assynolt,"

Miss Lilis came, along with the others. And immediately cried in Rubby's arms.

"The stoic darling. No one knows, how, and when the end of our lives is" Ms. Lilis said.

"Yes, Mum... By patient, but Maliq fussy daritadi."

"Maliq feels our sadness. Moreover, his mother loved Maliq so much."

"By regretted, because he had an argument with his brother about the management of Maliq last afternoon" said Rubby, who apparently heard Edra

"Why debate with Brother? What's wrong with Brother By?" ask her in a high tone.

Edra just sighed, and greeted his in-laws but silenced By, showing his frustration and disappointment.

They chatted, calming Edra, while Bu Lilis and Bik Inah helped By take care of the fussy Maliq.

"Mom... Are you angry with By?"

"Maybe edra was just in shock, so it was like that. By the patient. Tomorrow will improve By," replied Ms. Lilis.

"Yes, By... He's just in shock. By let it go first," added Bik inah.

The group rested in their own rooms. By approaching Edra in his room.

"Mas... Angry at the same By?"

"Engga... Just disappointed. Why By now often refutes the talk of Brother. By always fighting back, especially in the management of Maliq. Doesn't Brother really love Maliq like his biological child, it's natural that Brother pamper him,"

"Mas... By just asking Big Brother not to spoil Maliq too much, that's all. I also don't know, that's... Sa'at last Brother. If By finds out, By will let it all go, as he pleases, and as much as he wants. Not going by lerai. Ma'af, By is wrong" he said with tears streaming down the river.

"Let Mas alone for now, By. Please, just tonight." said Edra.

"Yes... By going, accompany Maliq. He's fussy dariitadi, maybe... Feeling the loss of his mother." said Rubby, then left, without edra turning to him.

Edra took off the cocoa shirt that he had been wearing, hung it, and put the peci in his pocket.

"This shirt? New shirt? It doesn't seem like you've ever had this shirt" said Edra, who just woke up with it all.

"Don't, this is indeed the dress that Diana prepared for me, O God, Dee."

He stroked the shirt, in memory of Dee and got a piece of paper in his pocket.

"What'sthis? Letter from Diana?" he murmured, then immediately opened, and read.

"Mas... Last night Dee had a dream, Mom and Dad approached Dee in her white clothes. They take Dee away, holding Dee warmly in their arms. But Dee said. Can Dee stay a while? Because Dee has not said goodbye to Maliq, Dee's favorite child. And they nodded. Then leave Dee for the bright light at the end of the road. I'm sorry, Mas, if Dee can't say goodbye. Impressive because Mas and By have given the most beautiful gifts in the last days of Dee. Titip Maliq ya Mas's. Tell Rubby to be patient in parenting. Mas too, help By, don't get busy legi with work. Because at this time, By must be in a state of instability and confusion. Mas, as her husband must support her. Dee pamit, Mas."

Edra cried again, and held the letter in his hand.

" De... Ma'af, I tried not to cry. But, I can't handle it. Eventually these tears spilled after reading from you. Forgive this crybaby. Surely you will be angry with Mas, because Mas crybaby despite having a child, Dee. Ma'af. "edra wiped her tears.

Tonight, she fell asleep in Diana's room, ignoring everything around her. His feelings were devastated, as was Rubby. Moreover, Maliq was so fussy that night, and did not want to be replaced with others. Increasingly aggravate the atmosphere.

"Maliq, honey, don't fuss gini baby. I know Maliq is sad, but this way, Maliq can get sick. Go to sleep, son," coaxed Rubby.

But that doesn't change anything, Maliq is crying faster, and makes Rubby more confused.

"Patience, Son... Maliq just misses his mother." whispered Miss Rubby.

"Maliq... Edra ndiemin By. So stressful, Mom, how do you do it?" her crying.

"By... Edra needs to be alone first, leave it last night. If it continues for a few days, then Mom and Dad will help you talk." said Ms. Lilis, calming Rubby.
