Unwilling to hear the stuttering sound of the Party Bik further, Chesy headed to the back, seeing the back of the house was already in a mess. Jonah and Cazim stood face to face. Cazim looked calm, a flat look. As for Jonah instead, his face was flushed red and tense.
"You are used to committing crimes, justifying everything for the sake of the enjoyment of life, without caring that it wronged many people, even killed my wife. I lost the man who cared for the children. And you are now present before me to acknowledge my daughter as your wife after you have kept your rottenness a secret. I try to accept the truth, but the facts don't. I will never be able to approve of your existence here! If killing you was justified, then I would have killed you by now." Jonah looked emotional and floated the knife he had just grabbed from the apple plate on the table.
"Pig!"
Chesy's voice stopped Jonah's movement. The knife stopped in the air.
Chesy did not expect that his ashes had been harboring simmering emotions and hatred towards Cazim, it was because he found the culprit who had made him lose his wife, but Jonah hid all of it from Chesy. Jonah looked fine and handed all the decisions to Chesy, when in fact his heart was wounded and very angry.
Just when Jonah was alone with Cazim, Jonah blew everything away, he had no power to hold back. The fragments in his mind were released. Jonah now seemed to be struggling to open his heart, several times he rubbed his face filled with anger. He continued to speak the name of God in his words to calm himself.
Between Cazim and Jonah had been involved in the conversation, Cazim mostly silent and accepted. Then Jonah was struck with emotion, unable to hold the weight on his chest, destroying everything around him, until he almost injured Cazim.
Chesy approached Jonah. Grabbing his ankle and lowering the knife. “I've been in position like abi did right? I was very hurt, angry and beaten, I held a knife and desperately wanted to eliminate Cazim, it was because the anger really peaked in the crown. But abi forbade me. Then why now even abi who did the same thing?”
Jonah's reddened eyes were finally dewy. He was crying but was arrested. “Abi can still forgive Cazim's mistakes that have made your common life drift, assume it has passed and abi must legowo over this destiny. But abi finds it hard to accept that when he finds out Cazim betrayed you, entered this family and became your husband, he secretly kept all of this a secret from the start. If abi finds out he's your ummah killer, surely abi will never take it.”
“Say, what can I do to make up for all this? Abi want me disabled? Alright, please do whatever it takes to make me disabled.” Cazim grabbed the knife that had been placed on the table. “I'm ready. Do, abi. Whatever you want I'm ready to take it!”
“Do not!” Chesy screamed and grabbed the knife. “No one should be hurt, persecuted, or punished. Abi once said that this matter was handed over to me right? now I have a decision, that the divorce suit I revoke.”
Everyone's surprised.
“I don't want a divorce. I will continue this marriage,” added Chesy made Jonah raise an eyebrow in wonder.
“What reasons made you change your mind?” ask Yunus.
“Many, abi. A great deal. Abi must know what I have to consider.” Chesy has not been in the mood to say that she is pregnant. It felt so hard to say that, his heart was still numb to be honest.
According to Jonah, the burden borne by his daughter is certainly heavy when it comes to divorce. In addition to the status of being a widow, the views of citizens about the daughter of an ustad who was divorced, and many more.
“Before it is too late, abi suggested, maybe you better think again about this decision. You don't have children yet, so nothing makes you feel hard to part from Cazim. Abi is not trying to separate you from Cazim, but he just wants you to consider the risks ahead. Is the risk of living with Cazim more severe, or is the risk of separation even heavy?” Jonah seemed disappointed by Chesy's decision. However, he did not force Chesy to obey his will.
“I've thought this is ripe, abi. I want to continue my life with Mas Cazim,” Chesy continued.
“Good.” Jonah nodded. His gaze was then fixed on Cazim. “Cazim, you may continue your marriage as my daughter requested, but I ask that you meet your parents and bring them here. Find me with my besan. And one more thing, solve your problem that got caught up in the drug scandal!”
“Well, those two conditions will be met,” replied Cazim calmly. His handsome face still looks relaxed even though he had been cornered by the in-laws.
“Three months, abi!” tawar Cazim's.
“Two weeks!”
Uh, it turns out Jonah can still be bargained with.
“Two months. I'll finish those two terms in two months.” Cazim is back to bargaining.
“One month.”
“One month two weeks," bargain Cazim again.
“No. One month.”
“Good.” Cazim. “I'll meet my parents and bring them here with me.”
Jonah. “No. Don't take Chesy. Go alone.”
“Sorry abi, however, I am her husband Chesy, so I have the right to take her. Let Chesy convince my parents that I'm married. It is better that I come to face them with Chesy,” said Cazim.
“I will join with Mas Cazim,” Chesy said making Yunus resigned and can not do anything. If Chesy had already made up her mind, then what could she have done? He felt he had no authority to govern Chesy given his rules that had once plunged his own son.
“If my problem is solved, and I have brought my parents to face abi, I hope abi can accept me, also bless me back as before,” said Cazim with firmness that is difficult to avoid.
“I'm going now.” Cazim grabbed Chesy's wrist. The two exchanged looks.
Ah, if only it were in normal condition, it should be thrilling once.
“Must now?” jonah asked with a frowning forehead. “This quickly you go?”
“Abi gave me only a short time. Then I have to finish as soon as possible, Cazim's short” is over.
Jonah resigned when Cazim took Chesy away.
