I'm Not a Mandul Woman
Chapters 1. Divorce and Expulsion

****

After the Maghrib, Yuliana, a hooded woman walks her suitcase out of the gate of the house she has lived in for the past 3 years with her now ex-husband. A two-story house in a middle housing complex but quite beautiful.

His eyes were swollen, tears were falling and did not want to stop. Occasionally he rubbed the mucus coming out of his nose with a tissue carried with one hand. A small bag containing a mobile phone and a wallet was draped over his shoulder.

Without pity, Revelation the husband banishes Yuliana from the house and throws a divorce letter into the face of the woman who has just officially become an ex-wife. Many times if angry he berates roughly Yuliana as barren woman, lost already her tenderness. Lost is the love that he always hummed first.

The pain he could not get rid of and he could not shed with his tears that were still breaking, he could not be contained until now.

"However you did, you used to seduce me even to the point of resting at my feet to get the love of this woman you consider an unlucky carrier.

You seduce with a million looming promises, sweet promises as sweet as honey.

You also promise, the paradise of the world in our household, but in fact the taste of hell you give." murmured Yulia inwardly still with the rest of her tears.

Wrongfully.

Whose fault is this?

Yuliana felt guilty, to herself as well as to her mother. He belittles the reproach of the mother who asked him to ask for the guidance of the Almighty through the prayer of Istikharah, to think well of the proposal of Revelation that only a few months he had known her.

At that time Yuliana was very confident in her decision, and of course ngeyel was amazing. Revelation is handsome, her posture is almost perfect. His job is also quite well established as a Production Manager at a cigarette company.

"Mom, Julie is very sure of the Revelation, she is the man in charge. He also worshiped. His work is also pretty well established. He's a manager, Mom. For Yulia who only graduated from High School, such work is very difficult. What's less, Mom?" his debate with the mother at that time was accompanied by a feeling of a little emotion.

"But the mother's premonition says the opposite. I don't think he fits you. Nak. Think well yes, don't just obey ***** temporary and love ego alone. Households are once in a lifetime. Once you fail, and your heart is wounded, it will be very difficult to heal." Mother's advice again. But instead of realizing it, Yuliana grew even more upset.

"Mom, I should pray well for Yulia, instead of talking as if I knew that Yulia's household would fail and end in divorce." Yulia murmur.

"Please, Mom. Restui Yulia, only mother I have right now. And I also love Revelation. I don't think I can live without him!" Yulia, who was sitting in front of her mother, looked up. If the Revelation leaves him, what life is.

"Yo wis, if that's what you want! I can only pray that the mother's child is happy in the world to the next."

"Amijin!" I only gave in because Yulia insisted. Let only he keep in his heart a taste he cannot describe to the child. All she could do as a mother was pray, for the happiness of her child's future home.

The eldest Angga, was married and had a child. They already have a simple house in the same city. But a little far away.

He was a factory worker, and so was his wife. And his wife, Dila, had to quit her job while she was pregnant and gave birth to a beautiful daughter for Angga. So that practically, only Angga as the head of the household who works to meet the needs of his household. Even though they live in a state of complete peace, but their lives are abundant in happiness.

"Mother! Sorry Yulia who never heard you say Mom!!" yulia screams in the heart. Tears still continued to drip in impudently. Though he had tried his hardest so that he did not come down to his white cheeks.

"Out of the complex gate, it is addressed by Mr. Sapto, the security guard of the complex which is part of the working shif.

"Loh, this is not Neng Yulia, his wife in Revelation. Where's Neng going at night?" Yulia only glanced for a moment.

"Eh, there's Mr. Sapto. Yes sir, I want to go home. Guess there's no taxi, sir at this hour?"

"Wow, I think there's rarely a taxi through, Neng. Now the era is sophisticated, the taxi passes are usually also already on order. Taxi onlen, huh? Does Neng Yulia want me to call you a taxi?"

In the distance Juliah saw a mushala, and the time was near. Yulia thought, It is better for her to pray first before going home. In order for his heart to be calmer, he was sure that until his mother's house would definitely crowd him with many questions.

"Eh, no need for Sapto. Thanks much. I want to go to musholla first, salat isya', Later I will find my own taxi. Thanks, Sapto!" without looking again Yulia walked towards the mushala, accompanied by a look of wonder from Mr. Sapto. Instead of not knowing, Yulia looked sad and cried. But he doesn't want to interfere with people's business.

"This must be the work of the Revelation, I will often see the Revelation in and out using his car bring another girl. Is that the affair of Revelation? Sakno rek rek, ayu ayu kok Yo cheated. Less opo try mbak Yulia Ki, wis ayu, polite, gawe hijab Ki mestine lak Yo devout muslim, but bojone! Want due bojo ayu ae I do not obey, even seng due bojo ayu in sio sio." Mumbled Mr. Sapto's heart.

Yulia placed her suitcase in the mushala, and there were already a few people coming. When an old mother came in, she spoke to the woman.

"Ah Mom, may I ask you a favor? Please take care of my bag, ma'am, there really is nothing valuable in it. But right now this is all I have. I just want to wudhu. Just a minute, Mom!" yulia said politely.

The old woman nodded, and invited Yulia to cleanse herself and ablution.

Yulia's white face had been puffy and flushed looking very messy. But because the water of wudhu makes it better and fresher.

Adhan has reverberated. Finished ablution and wearing a mukena, Yulia performed the circumcision before Isha' and then prayed. In his prayer he begged to be lifted up in his heart and strengthened to face the trials of life. He realized that life was a test. And God will not test man beyond his means. As mentioned in Surah al-Baqarah verse 286:

Yukallifullahu nafsan illa wus'aha, laha ma kasabat wa 'alaiha maktasabat.

Which means:

Meaning: Allah does not burden a person except for his ability or ability. He got the reward (of virtue) he worked for and he got the punishment (of evil) he did.

Wallahu a'lam bisshawab.
