Arga's cell phone notification reads.
I stared at the screen of Arga's phone lying on the nightstand beside my bed. Well tonight was the first night we slept together in one room. Her name is also a newlywed obviously going to sleep together.
I can see on the screen of his wallpaper Arga a new message came in.
There is the name my love.
This heart is curious about the message sent to Arga. I can confirm that it was a message from Sandra. How not, while the girl that Arga loves is just Sandra. can be sure the message is from Sandra.
I picked it up and I saw a message from Sandra. Well, I can't open Arga's phone because Arga uses the phone code ny, but still I can see the message on the front screen of his phone.
[Surely now you're happy to be with your new family] Message from Sandra.
At that time Arga was in the bathroom to clean up.
Well tonight she's staying at my house. And tomorrow I'll come with him to stay at his parents' house.
Although I knew, she did not consider me to be a wife, but still, I had to serve my husband until the time came when we separated.
Seeing the message from Sandra makes this heart again feel pain, pain and pain. Arga is now my husband. Surely every woman does not like to see a woman again contact her husband what else is there his lover. Moreover, they are still in contact.

Kling...
There were more messages coming in on Arga's phone.
Now I choose not to take it with those messages. Because the more I find out, the more it hurts in this heart.
"I'll sleep downstairs. Please sleep on your bed" said Arga who suddenly nongol from behind my bedroom door.
"Astagfirullah" I said in shock.
"Luckily, I quickly put the phone back. If not, Arga will be furious with me" My inner self.
"Why bengong? You think I'll sleep with you? Still hoping it happens?" Ask her?
I shook my head.
"Yes already, please prepare my bed" Her orders again with a cold face and her voice sounding flat.

I'm getting ready to take care of all my stuff because I'm going home with Arga this morning.
My mom and dad are also getting ready to go home.
Well, they've long since left the village. Now is the time they come home especially I no longer live in the rented house. I'm gonna stay with Arga. So what else are they here for. Think of both my parents.
"Son, mom and dad said yes. You're fine here, baby" said the mother.
"Yes buk. Mom and dad be careful. When you get to the village, don't forget to tell me" I said trying to smile wryly.
I can't hide this sense of sadness in my heart. Well how sad I feel when I'm going to be separated from my parents. Every woman who has just been married will feel the same way, right?
But what I feel is different now. I married a man who didn't love me. That makes this heart feel sad. Maybe, if Arga loves me as much as he loves Sandra, maybe I don't feel this sad.
"Son, no, we leave Raya to you please take care of her and Love her with all your heart but if later you have tried to love her sincerely but you did not succeed then we ask you to give her back to him we do not add to the sadness and pain in his heart because for us the area is our most precious child that will not be judged by anything" said my father full of hope.
"Yes, insha allah" answered Arga briefly.
Degs....
My words touched this heart. How not, both my parents know that Arga married me out of coercion and not with love
Therefore, father asked Arga to return me if Arga could not love me sincerely..
I can see the change in Arga's facial features that I can't interpret as anything. Whether he was moved by my father's words or offended.
"We say goodbye first yes want travel has come" said my mother gave a farewell hug to me. So too with my dad.
After a travel car driven by my father and mother drove across the highway, I and Arga decided to immediately go home to Arga using his personal car Arga.

"Assalamualaikum" I said when we reached his house Arga luxury house which can be said like a palace now I live in it.
"Waalaikumsalam eh daughter-in-law and her son mama has arrived Come please enter Nak" greeted Rina with warmth.
I kissed the backs of my In-laws' hands as a sign of respecting them as I respect both parents for myself.
"Bik please help rea yes bring the luggage to Arga's room" said Rina to his assistant.
"Good buk" replied the maid immediately took the items in her car Arga.
"Ma what the hell is this? Why does he have to sleep in my room? in this house there are many rooms ma and in the house There are also guest rooms why should he sleep in my room? Why do we have to sleep in one room?" Arga's protest was filled with annoyance.
"Well, why do you protest that Arga you have become a legal husband and wife in the eyes of the law and also in the eyes of religion. Why should you sleep separate rooms instead of you should sleep in the same room like a husband and wife" explained Rina reminded her only son.
"Yes ma I know me and Rea are married. But our marriage is just a status. The status in which I cover her condition now is not because of the basis of love ma" said Arga.
"And my mom and dad knew that I only loved one woman, Sandra. The girl who has not been able to mom and dad accept her presence in a relationship with me. Though I can only be happy with him not with other women" Arga said.
"Myself and Rea were only married for a few months just to cover up their status and make sure that Rea wasn't pregnant with my son. If it's been proven that she's not pregnant, then within 3 months she and I will be separated" she added with emotion.
Degs...
"Arga watch your words!" Jerky Rudi.
"You think marriage is just a game? You have revealed the vows of marriage in which you have been witnessed by witnesses, Rea's parents and you have also promised before God with the pledge of the covenant. You have to keep all those agreements. Don't think marriage is just a game. Marriage is a sacred bond that you must keep until the end of your life." Clearly Rudi.
At that moment, I felt very bad. Because I just arrived at the house there was already a quarrel between the Arga family. Well I think it's all because of my presence.
"Yes I will keep my marriage covenant or my marriage bond if I marry with my loved ones instead of with her" Arga protested.
"Just Sandra ma, just Sandra Pa the person I love is nothing else and I beg you please understand my feelings"
"We could have accepted Sandra. If Sandra's the same faith as us. But in fact, Sandra and we are different religions" explained Rudi.
"What if you are married to a different religion? After all many people who married with different religions out there" Arga back catapulted his unkempt.
"Yes, there are a lot of married people out there with different religious marriages. But it is strictly forbidden by our religion, son, mother is equally papa do not want you to sin and automatically it will also involve us and will also drag us as Sinners as well. Because it has let you marry a girl who is not one of our same beliefs" explained Rina.
"Free, it's free that I ask for understanding from you two. You're both selfish and very, very selfish you just think of yourself you don't have my feelings"
"We think of you, son, we do not approve of your relationship and Sandra we do not want our only child, the only son of the successor of the Atmaja Kusuma family to do such a sin"
"Not you ever said that Sandra did not want to enter our religion. He will continue to stand up for his religion. How can we as parents respect that. If indeed Sandra loves you she would want to follow your religion instead of bringing you her religion it is the same as apostasy son you know apostasy right? Apostasy is a big sin" explained Rudi.
"Yes son, don't think about your ego, son. Don't just think about the world. The world is just for a moment, son. Mama doesn't want you to go to hell for apostasy. Please understand and please accept Rea as your wife" Pinta Rina pleaded.
"Easy! Free, free I ask you for understanding. You will not be able to understand what I feel right now" said Arga leaving us who are still standing in their respective places.
"Arga where are you going? " Shouted Rudi.
"You seek the fresh wind. Because in this house feels like hell" he replied.
Arga drove by his car splitting the highway.
"I'm sorry the price, son, you have to be patient with Arga like that. Mama hope you don't give up on taking Arga's heart so she can love and accept you as her wife" Pinta my mother-in-law.
"Mama and papa don't know what else to do to advise Arga so he can leave Sandra. If only Sandra would have entered our religion. We will not oppose it like this but Sandra insists on defending her religion. And look at him making Arga change. Mama is afraid son, mama is very afraid that Arga will apostatize later for the sake of his love for Sandra"
"Mama and papa are patient, we pray together that Arga's heart can change. There is no greater power than the power of God. Only he can turn back the heart of every human being on earth.i Therefore we do not give up hope to pray Arga" I said to strengthen my two in-laws.
Although I myself am not sure of my abilities. Whether I can make Arga change as expected by my two in-laws but I'm sure God will definitely help me.
"I want to go to the room first yes to clean up all my stuff" I said.
"Yes son. Go then! If you are tired, you just rest in the room do not worry. Think of it as your own home" Rina said with a friendly smile.
"Yes, thank you" I said.
"Bik please take Rea to her room! Let him rest" the middle-aged woman said.
"Good ma'am" replied the maid.
"let's not come with me" she added.
***
I nodded my head which felt heavy.
I am so confused by what happened to me. Especially not until one day I was at his house Arga has happened there has been a great quarrel between Arga and his parents.
"Oh my God, can I possibly face all this? Am I strong with her attitude Arga who is cold and indifferent to me" My inner being.
"I am strong, O God. Help me. Only you can help me in this difficult situation. I am helpless without your help and guidance" My prayer.
"Hopefully I won't disappoint my mom and dad. Aamiin" Add me again.
***
"Darling, why is your face so upset? What was? Try the story" Pinta Sandra who just came to see Arga. Well they did promise to meet at all the caffe places they used to meet.
"I'm just upset with mom and dad"
"Why? Because Me? Or your wife?" Guess Sandra.
"Well, mom and dad asked me to accept Rea as my wife. Obviously I can't accept that. I just love you not him" Arga said.
"You appeal to him, obviously much different. Like heaven and earth.. We saw your appearance. Fashionable and classy, right? Just a simple village girl. It's not appropriate for a CEO to have a wife like her, is it? My wife should be like you" replied Arga who sounded insulting to me.
"You can't wait for me to come home" Sandra said.
"I was frustrated at the time. You left me. Not to mention a few days before the incident you are very difficult to contact" Arga reason.
"But it does not have to be also you seek outdoor entertainment such as yesterday. And look what happened, you were forced to marry her right" Sandra pouted..
"Yes, I'm sorry about everything that happened. You just calm down. My marriage lasted only three months. Just making sure she's pregnant with my child or not" Arga relented.
"Don't pout that dong. Ugly so her" Goda Arga.
"If you fall in love with her, how?"
"There's no way I could fall in love with a girl like her. I told you that my level is like you're not her" Arga said.
"And after he and I separated, I made sure I would marry you with or without the blessing of my father and mother" Arga said with confidence.
"Really?" Ask Sandra.
"of course. What's not. for you my heart's lover" said Arga poking.the chin of the girl in front of him..
"Thank you Ga" Sandra buried her head in the chest of the midwife who was now my husband.
