"I'm sorry" said Arsyad softly. Aira smiled faintly, she picked up her drink and sipped the fresh orange juice.
"I'm sorry, because I was in a quasi-anger, burning jealous flames, it was very difficult to control myself" Aira said after she gulped her orange juice. "I was completely in shock at that moment, as if the sky was collapsing over my head, as if the earth was rolling up my life and binding me, he said, I was completely immersed in a point that had never been cleared in my mind all this time."
"I know.." said Arsyad in response, he looked at Aira who was now staring at Via with a smile. "Why don't you pack a veil? Our status is different now" said Arsyad then who immediately made the smile on Aira's lips fade. Now Aira turned her gaze to Arsyad.
"I'm used to having no veil in front of you." a very unexpected answer Arsyad came out of Aira's lips, but Arsyad could not deny he hit his ex-wife's answer.
"Humaira, there's something I want to talk about," Arsyad exclaimed later, Aira just nodded her head as if letting Arsyad talk anything. "I didn't come here to draw you into my life" said Arsyad who made Aira immediately frown. "Maybe you feel angry at my arrival, feel I'm selfish, impose a will and maybe you think I don't give you room to rearrange the heart." Aira still faithfully listened to Arshad's words, and now her heart began to tremble, wondering what Arshad really wanted to say.
"You must know, in the iddah period, the same responsibilities you and I were able to fulfill those responsibilities but because of some circumstances, we were far apart and I couldn't fulfill my obligations, I'm really sorry. And you also know, I can refer to you very easily, simply express that desire, and whether you accept it or engage, you are sincere and sincere or unwilling, then you will still be my wife." Aira unconsciously held her breath when she heard Arsyad's words.
"I came to ask for a last chance, to prove how much I love you and the kids. I will do anything to prove that I still deserve your love and your children. But if after giving birth you still feel I'm not worthy of you and the children, if you don't feel sorry for my mistakes, I'll back off."
Aira's heart was pounded at Arsyad's last words.
"Therefore, I do not express the will of reference because I want us to begin a new relationship of the will of our hearts, because our hearts both want it." Aira's heart was filled with the expression of Arshad's heart, especially when Aira looked into Arsyad's eyes, interrupting him, Aira could see the same great wounds and love, just like her, love and wounds were equally great.
"And if you will accept me, accept me because your heart wills, not because of anyone even on behalf of our children. Don't accept me if it's only for the sake of our children's happiness, because their happiness depends on your happiness. If you are happy, you will always make them happy. With or without me." Aira's heart trembled at Arshad's words and it reminded Aira of Hulya's words.
Aira tried to dive into her own heart, would that heart go back to Arshad? His first man, his first love and the first man to incise a tremendous deep wound.
Aira also remembered, that it was not Arsyad who left her either for the sake of her mother especially Anggun, but Aira who left Arsyad because Aira could not stand the waves from her mother-in-law. Aira who left, Aira who left because Aira felt unable in the marriage that still had to be driven by her mother-in-law.
Aira left, because she could not control her disappointment over Arshad's lies.
