"Rumi ... the man who was waiting there for your husband?" ask Anne-Arumi's friends during college first. The hijab-wearing woman turned her eyes towards the figure of a tall man who was waiting in line beside her husband-Farhan.
Currently Arumi-Rayyan, Anne-Farhan is in one of the restaurants located in Suria KLCC mall (Kuala Lumpur City Center). It is located under the Petronas Twin Towers. The newlyweds chose to meet in a shopping mall because Arumi wanted to go for a walk in one of the biggest shopping centers in Malaysia. In addition, he was also selfie ria, immortalizing the togetherness of his beloved husband in front of the icon of the neighboring country.
Arumi who was sitting next to Anne just nodded her head in response. He knew very well that his college friend was currently confused. How not to be confused, because as far as the hijab woman in college was Arumi's lover was Mahesa not Rayyan.
"There's been a lot going on with me over the past five years, Ne. One of them is my household relationship that has ended with Mas Mahes," Arumi said frankly. Explaining the strange problem that decided the Bandung mojang was suing for divorce from her ex-husband.
In college, Anne was a close friend of Arumi. In addition to studying medicine, both, the two beautiful women also entered student organizations that are often involved in various activities on campus, one of which is a social service event and free checks for the poor community.
Anne was confused by Arumi's reply. He asked his friend again. "You ... divorced because of what? Not because of the issue of infidelity that is rife in Indonesia, right?"
Arumi took a deep breath, strengthening himself if he was okay. Although it has tried to forget the events in the past, but still the wound in the heart of the woman is not dry and somehow will heal. Luckily there is Rayyan who is always on the side of the beautiful woman so that little by little she can treat the pain of betrayal of her husband and former best friend.
"Mas Mahes is cheating behind my back. In fact, he had a child with that woman." Arumi squeezed her fingers to strengthen herself so that tears do not fall down her cheeks.
"Whatdidyou say? Mahesa cheated!" Anne stunned. The round eyeballs are getting perfectly widened.
It is unexpected that a loyal and kind man like Mahesa is tempted by other women as well. Though the figure of Arumi is almost perfect in the eyes of anyone. If Anne were a man, she would fall in love with the beautiful doctor.
Again Arumi nodded his head. "really. Therefore, I decided to sue Mas Mahes for divorce. I can't live with a man who can't be loyal to his partner." The beautiful woman paused her sentence for a moment, then continued her words. "The affair happened at the insistence of my mother-in-law."
"Crazy! Absolutely insane!" anne shouted as she got up from the chair. The chest of the fireworks is deflated and the roar of breath is hunting. As a result of the screams, some restaurant visitors stared at the table of the two beautiful women.
"Anne, lower your voice!" Arumi seemed to waver as her whole eye turned towards them. The woman's index finger was attached to the front of her lips, signalling that her friend was shrinking the volume of the sound. He asked the hijab-wearing woman to sit down again.
The beautiful woman in a maroon hijab woke up if all the eyes of restaurant visitors pointed at her, then she sat back in the chair.
"How can a mother plunge her child into sin. Oh my God, I don't know what else to say, Rumi," Anne said in a soft voice.
Anne's hand reached for the drink on the table. The cold AC in the mall is not able to drive away the hot flutter in the woman. He needs something that can cool his feelings because it is too emotional.
There was silence for a moment. Anne was busy sipping her cold drink, while Arumi was busy with her own thoughts.
"It's crazy, but that's the truth. My ex-in-law asked Mas Mahes to have an affair in order to get offspring. He couldn't bear to wait until he took a shortcut."
Anne placed the glass on the table so hard that the two objects clashed.
"Whatever the reason, infidelity is not justified by any religion. Especially since you're not pregnant!" Anne was upset that she did not accept women being blamed again in this case. Though it could have been the husband or other parties involved so as to make it difficult for the Eve to have a baby.
Emotions in Anne overflowed when she heard the story of Arumi's life as long as they did not meet. The woman stared intently at her friend with eyes radiating anger. Not angry at Arumi but angry at the bad people who could stab his friend from behind. Tega hurt good women like Arumi.
"Your decision to divorce from your ex-husband is just right. I would have done the same thing if Abang Farhan had cheated on me behind my back. In fact, I could've cut the bird to nothing." Showing a creepy expression made Arumi who was sitting next to him feel scared.
"But .. I am grateful behind all these events God found me with a good man who was willing to accept all the shortcomings in me. She was willing to live with me even though she knew forever that our household would not be blessed with a baby." Highlight the sparkling eyes while staring at the figure of a handsome man who was doing transactions at the cashier.
"Although the beginning of our meeting was not memorable, but at least my relationship with Rayyan went well" Arumi added. Mengulum smiled as she recalled the beginning of her meeting with Rayyan.
Anne took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. At least now he is much calmer than before.
"Do you really love him or are you just making him an impingement?" Staring full of sight. He knows exactly how Arumi feels about Mahesa. She loved her ex-husband so much. So, it's no wonder Anne asked such a privacy question. He just wants to make sure that Arumi really sincerely loves Rayyan not for a moment of impingement.
He looked back at Rayyan who was walking towards the table where Arumi and Anne were. Giving a sincere smile full of love to her new husband.
Without looking into Anne's eyes, Arumi answered. "I love my husband so much, Ne. Today, tomorrow and beyond he's the only man worthy of standing by me to spend the rest of my time in this world."
"Just be with her, I want to raise our children. Give them love and affection and teach them what it means to be faithful when they grow up so that my children's homes will be harmonious without any interference from a third person and I want to teach them to accept the shortcomings of each partner," said Arumi.
Suddenly, a smile fell on Anne's face. When this happened, she knew that Arumi really loved her husband. Not to be used as a means of revenge, but as a place of the last port.
"I'm sorry, it makes you wait too long" said Farhan with a malay accent. Anne's husband is from the Neighborhood. Both of his parents are Malaysian.
The man sat next to Anne. The long wait made him quite tired.
Anne looked up her head, staring lovingly at the charcoal of her husband. "No problem, brother. As long as you wait in line, Anne will always wait here faithfully."
Farhan's red face flushed hearing the flutter given by Anne. The woman is more expressive in acting and always praises her husband even in front of others.
Arumi just shook her head. Apparently Anne's attitude has not changed even though she has not met for nearly five years.
"I ordered a potato salmon salad, ebi tempura and ice lemon tea with less sugar" Rayyan said, sitting next to Arumi.
Arumi glanced at her husband with a smile on her face. "Whatever you order, I'll eat."
The two human beings stared at each other with intense gazes. Give each other smiles. The glare of the eyes exudes a glint full of sincere love emanating from within the depths of the heart.
Seeing the joy on Arumi's face, Anne now believes that Rayyan is the right kind of man to replace Mahesa in her friend's heart.
"Oh yeah, what were you guys doing during our stay?" Farhan's heavy voice distracted everyone.
Arumi beckons Anne to answer Farhan's question, as she fears Rayyan is jealous of her being too close to another man.
Anne understood Arumi's intentions. She immediately approached her husband's ear and said. "Consecret. Brother can't know." Then, he chuckles. Make a warm atmosphere created. Sounds crisp, but enough to melt the atmosphere that was cold.
Although the atmosphere still feels awkward because of the presence of two cold men between two women who have a cheerful personality, but the meeting during the day went quite smoothly. Evident from the sound of laughter that occasionally sounded from the table.
Rayyan was the only man who laughed so hard that he rarely smiled. However, Anne and Farhan understand the condition of Arumi's husband.
