" Let go!" Tania rebelled wanting to escape Julian's embrace.


" No! Do you want to be a bad wife? Say, Tania. Happy is the husband's heart many merits." Said Julian who uses religious reasoning in search of profit. Julian smiled faintly after saying so.


" Let go!" Shouted someone loudly from behind them.


" Mom?!" Julian cried aghastly seeing his mother already standing in the doorway with her face red.


" Let go of my words!" yuli's mother snapped to Julian who was still tightly hugging his wife's body.


" Why mom? she's my own wife.". Julian defended himself.


" You brat! I promised my mom yesterday, right? You said you wouldn't hurt your wife again. But what is this?" Said Yuli's mother who had been blabbering while beating Julian's body with a scroll of files he had brought from the religious court.


" I didn't hurt her Mom, I just hugged her. Oh...!" Julian said no less.


While the mother and child debate is ongoing, Tania is like a dividing partition between the two. Tania's body was drawn here and there because Julian was hiding behind her.


" Mom stop, I'm fine. He just hugged me. I just don't like it when he hugs me." Said Tania who sounded a little stern and made the two stop.


" What?" Mother Yuli could not believe hearing Tania who seemed to defend Julian.


"You're defending this brat?" Yuli's mother who does not believe what Tania said.


Julian smiled happily at what Tania said. Julian became even more confident that Tania would definitely give him a second chance.


"No." Tania shakes.


Julian again became lethargic hearing the answer from Tania's mouth.


" I'm just telling you the truth, Mother. I don't like it when your son touches me. I'm afraid of her mother." Tania said honestly.


Julian's hand that was still wrapped around Tania's waist slowly began to stretch and came loose after Tania said that she was frightened by Julian's actions.


" Have you heard that Julian?" Yuli's mother glared at Julian.


Yuli's mother ruffled her short hair and poked it with her finger then walked towards the sofa and sat down with her huffiness.


" Come here, I want to talk now." Said Yuli's mother who was currently starting to feel a throbbing in her head.


Tania and Julian glanced at each other at a glance and then walked over to Yuli's mother and they sat down together.


" What do you want Julian?" Ask Yuli's mother without further ado. His face looks firm and fierce.


" I still want to build a household with my mother. I don't want to divorce or separate from him anymore. Enough for me to get married once in my life." Julian said that out of nowhere got those magic words.


" Then you're Tania, what do you want?" Look at Yuli's mother who now turns to see Tania who is down with her cheeks that have been wet in tears.


" I still want a divorce, Mom. I still want to file a lawsuit. It's true he's already pulled it. But I will definitely make another request. I know enough about you, ma'am." Tania's word was cut off because of her sobs.


" We don't get married out of love. And because I'm Julian, too, until I parted ways with Angel. Here, I'm the one who's guilty, ma'am. My arrival destroyed the happiness of others. I hope that with my divorce from Mas Julian, his life will be happier. I promised Ma'am I'd keep returning the money my mother asked of Julian. I also promise to go as far as possible out of his sight." Tania.


Why does my chest feel tight when I say this?


Mother Yuli nodded a few times and then switched again to look at Julian who was staring inside Tania.


" Yes Ma'am. But I still don't want a divorce! Forever, she will remain my wife, as long as I live. POINT!" Julian's elot and unyielding step down.


" Mad, we don't have a match. You don't love me. I don't want to be between the two of you forever. I don't want to be the woman who takes happiness away from other women." Said Tania who reluctantly held back her cries.


" Angel is nothing to me." Julian said with a hard-to-art eye.


" Hhhh, you guys." Yuli's mother massages her temples looking for new ideas to solve her son's problems.


" Do you know if rowing on only one side only makes you keep spinning in the same place?" Ask Mother Yuli using metaphorical magazines.


Tania and Julian nodded simultaneously. The point of Yuli's mother was, Their ark would never reach its destination if only one side tried. In this case only Julian intended to defend while Tania already preferred to leave.


" This is mom's thinking. You must separate the beds for a maximum of 3 months. If in three months you've understood each other's point of deficiency, then whatever it is your decision you mother will not interfere." Said Yuli's mother who was welcomed by Julian.


I don't know what's inside Julian's head. However, he looks happy when Yuli's mother says split the bed. Different for Tania, she looks lethargic and moody.


"I'll take it." Julian said steadily and confidently.


" You're Tania?" Ask Yuli's mother to Tania who just looks flat with no expression.


" All right." Java Tania with resignation.


" good. We made a decision together. I hope that during these three months you can introspect each other. And, for you Julian. Don't ever come here without Mom's permission."


" But Mom."


" Nothing but. His name is also split bed. If you decide to make up can not only be from one side. Must be from both. So never break this deal. If one of you wants to meet or say something, include mom in it." Said Mother Yuli.


" Julian, now we're home." Said Yuli's mother who had stood up from her seat and tidied up her clothes.


Julian simply obeyed his mother's words with an unwilling look leaving Tania. While Tania wiped away her tears that had started to break.


Geck!


Geck!


Geck!


" Yes!" Excited Tania who left and then followed Mother Yuli and Julian who will come out of her house.


Tania opened the door and a man stood right in front of the door carrying flowers and fruits as a hand. Her gaze was shady and soothing looking at Tania gently and lovingly.


But not with Julian who already wanted to raise his fist to the newly arrived man. His gazes clashed against each other and sent out a signal of deep hostility.


I want Julian to finish off that guy right now but what can he do?


" Hey, come in." Tania said.


" Don't bring another man in if there's no husband at home." Julian said with cynicism and real anger.


" We'll just talk on the porch."The man's words seemed to test Julian's level of jealousy.


We start our fight. The man who was visiting.
