Married Three Breeding Widow
It's Alright
Everyone must have a time where they wish time had stopped, instead of running. Juwita was in that moment. He hoped that time would not go by but the night had already come again, while Juwita still had not found anything in her head.
The woman goes downstairs, intending to grab some drinking water but instead finds Adji sleeping on the sofa, holding onto their family's small frame.
He must be very tired too. Come to think of it, wasn't he the most injured? His son harbors feelings for his wife.
The kid he always gave everything wants what he can't give.
"Mas." Juwita kissed Adji's forehead while muttering to wake him up. "Mas Adji."
The man gasped a little, shocked to see Juwita. "Why?" he was worried, probably thinking there was nothing.
But Juwita shook her head. Turn from behind the sofa to the front, go up on the sofa and hug it.
Adji who got a hug suddenly got confused, but of course the man hugged Juwita back.
Silence ruled their surroundings for some time. There was only a faint breath of each other before Juwita finally opened her voice.
"Far in my heart" muttered Juwita, "I feel our family is not all right if Abi does not exist."
"That's because you love her." Adji rubbed up and down Juwita's back. "The world is never good if your loved ones don't exist, Juwita."
"That means your world is not good if your child leaves." Juwita. "You sacrificed your son, let me be here. If I were you, I'd choose you to leave instead of my children."
"That's why they called me Papa." Adji smile. [Eat him I'm the Papa]
"You're Mama, you're Mom, you're making kids. Your job is not the same with them. They get sick, they don't eat, they have problems, you always have no heart. Cassian. But me, my job is that they don't get sick, they can eat, they learn from their mistakes. Even it makes them cry, angry, maybe hate, Papa's job is to make a strong decision."
"...."
"You think Mas doesn't like Abhimanyu? Look at him, Juwita. Look at his eyes. He was lonely, he didn't know where to go, he probably felt that there was no place for him to go home in this world. Abhimanyu has feelings. Abhimanyu was not a monster who confessed everything because he was that same. He's got feelings."
Adji's voice sounded emotional saying it. The man took a breath, pulling Juwita in his arms.
"But as Papa, pretend not to care, pretend not to kasian the child's duty Mas. Because sometimes he has to deal with the pain that he does not know what to do with it. That's what makes him an adult one day."
He always has been. He always put on a face no matter until sometimes Juwita was curious he actually had feelings or not.
But Adji never left anything behind. Any burden is borne by him.
"I'm grateful to have you, Mom." Juwita sat on her lap, hugging Adji very tightly. "I'm grateful you chose me."
Now Juwita is completely calm. His heart was airy especially when he knew Adji was here for him.
"Get the kids?" juwita whiskey. "I'm kangen. Yuni is crying for sure."
"Now not now." Adji suddenly moved until Juwita spontaneously wrapped her legs to her waist.
His actions left Juwita suffocated. Glared at Adji who was even whiny.
"Inget waist, you old man!"
"You're pregnant again?"
"God! Don't talk about it!" Juwita pinches Adji's ear spontaneously. "Six is enough, already! Don't go any further!"
Adji chuckles instead, ignoring Juwita's chatter about how difficult it is to take care of the many children. The man took Juwita to their room, threw her into the bed.
"Mas! Don't be a blue movie actor!"
"Aren't you interested in having ten kids?" ask Adji nosy.
"You think I'm a cat?!" reply Juwita wrathful. "NO, I WANT TO BE WITH YOU! THERE! FAR-AWAY!"
But if there's one thing that makes Adji different, he's a husband who's never afraid if his wife is angry. Want to be really angry let alone lie.
