Only a short time later, Anaya stayed in the room with the lamp she was still extinguishing. I heard knocking on the door from outside. Anaya let out a sigh that felt so heavy, then she slightly shouted, asking who was knocking on her bedroom door.
"Who?" ask Anaya.
"Dad ... This is Dad, Aya .. please open the door for a moment" said Tendean's father.
Anaya got out of her bed, and then opened the door for her father, after Anaya just turned on the lamp that was on the nightstand next to her bed.
"Yes, I want to talk for a while. Reyhan explained everything to Dad. He said his departure to Singapore was not intentional, but there was indeed a project there and his parents were sick. Reyhan returned to Singapore to take care of his sick parents. This time Reyhan apologized for everything and at the same time he wanted to inaugurate the marriage of the two of you legally in the eyes of the country. Record the marriage under the hands of both of you," explained Tendean's father.
Because, once the procedure of marriage under the hands. Brides can record their marriage without having to do kabul ijab again. Recording can be done at the nearest Religious Affairs Office. The document that needs to be attached is a certificate from the local KUA that the marriage has not been recorded, a certificate from the village head or local lurah that explains that the applicant has been married, and the, photocopy of the ID card of the applicant isbat (approval) marriage, and of course pay the cost of the case.
"Yes don't want to reunite with Rey, Dad ...."
I think this decision is unanimous. Anaya doesn't want to build a household with a man she hated for the rest of her life. Back with Reyhan there will actually make Anaya fall back trapped in a deep hole.
"It's up to you, Anaya .. All of your decisions are back to you" said Tendean's father.
Feeling that his daughter was an adult, Tendean's father returned all the decisions to Anaya. After all, the one who knew that was good for Anaya was certainly Anaya herself. Tendean's father was just trying to convey what had happened to Reyhan. Because, of course Anaya will not want to listen to all that.
"Reyhan's still waiting for you downstairs. He insists he will not leave and will stay here until you forgive him. Meet him for a moment" said Tendean's father.
Anaya sighed, the performance of her lungs in pumping air and draining it throughout the body felt so heavy and tight. Especially when he found out that Reyhan was still at the bottom, and the man also insisted that he would not leave the Anaya residence. Truly, Anaya became very upset with the man's behavior.
"Why don't you just throw him out?" ask Anaya.
"Had, it's just that he was still insisting here .. he was waiting for you, Ay," replied Tendean's father.
Anaya wiped away the tears that still left a trace on her face and then Anaya looked back at her father.
"Can Anaya see him for a minute?" tanyakanya.
"Byeah" replied Tendean's father. "Do you need to be with me?" ask again.
"Yes Father .. accompany Aya. Aya was afraid that Reyhan would treat Anaya badly" she replied.
Just in case there's no harm, right? If there was a father, it would be much better.
With shaky steps and a rumbling chest, Anaya came back downstairs and was about to meet Reyhan. Not to accept the man's apology, but because Anaya had to convey her wishes. Anaya had to tell her true heart intent.
"Ana" Reyhan's voice when he saw Anaya coming down from the stairs. "At last you come down, Ana ... will you forgive me?" ask the man who was standing from his seat.
"No. I won't forgive you, Rey. What you have done to me can never be forgiven" Anaya said.
"We can start over again, Ana. Record it civilly" Reyhan said again.
Anaya quickly refused, "I don't need marriage from you, Rey .. I don't want to spend my life with a depraved man like you. I'd rather live alone" Anaya said.
"Give me a chance once more, Ana .. I'll prove that I really have changed. I'll treat you well. I promise," said Reyhan.
However, Anaya snorted with a stifled laugh, "There is no need to promise something that you will never keep. After all, if there's no communication in six months, it means it's over, Rey .. Now it's better .. Just drop the talaq on me, Rey!"
With all her strength, Anaya also said that Reyhan really let go of this marriage. After all, from the beginning this marriage was only a form of accountability Reyhan for having taken away Anaya's honor. However, in reality the man named Reyhan never did his responsibilities either as a husband or as a father. Reyhan doesn't know the fate of the baby. There was no helping of the father's hand when his little baby was buried. Given all that, again makes Anaya so crowded.
"No, no .. no will, Ana. This time I won't do anything bad again. I will atone for all my sins. Please, Ana .. don't talk talaq here because in my heart I will still consider you my wife" Reyhan replied.
"What wife is Rey? The wife you marry is under your hands and then you just leave. There is no sense of your responsibility as a husband and as a father!"
This time Anaya shouted. It was no longer possible for all the anger that was raging and lodged in his chest. While Tendean's father, who was standing behind Anaya, knew exactly how destroyed his daughter was. Shouted Anaya's terms with anger, regret, fragility, and helplessness.
Hearing what Anaya said regarding her responsibilities as a father, Reyhan was completely stifled. So, during her departure, Anaya actually became pregnant and gave birth to a child. She thought that Anaya was pregnant just to get some accountability from her. He thought, Anaya just claimed to be pregnant just to be married to him. Now, after knowing everything, Reyhan's face turned red. The man shook his head as if in disbelief.
"Dad? So, I have a kid, Ana? Where .... Where is my son? Where's our son, Ana?" ask Reyhan.
Asked about her son's whereabouts, Anaya's cries completely broke. Yes, there was a time when Anaya mourned the day of her little baby's departure. There was a time when Anaya blamed Reyhan for everything that had happened.
Anaya's broken cry, the woman's body that shook and whimpered bitterly, finally Tendean's father immediately came forward and embraced Anaya.
"Have Aya ... already, if not strong do not continue," said Tendean's father.
"He asked where his son was, while he himself doubted his son's whereabouts, Father. The child that Anaya could not take care of, because God loved her more. The child who never heard the voice of his father, felt the warm approach of his father, even there was no helping of his father to bury him," cried Anaya again.
The cries, sobs, and roars of Anaya spilled all over. Just this time, Anaya said everything in front of Reyhan. Reyhan who listened to Anaya's words also felt very guilty. Her doubts made her lose her baby. Her doubts about Anaya's pregnancy actually made her never able to give affection as a father.
Anaya crying ... Anaya sniffled in sobbing for the sake of sobbing. Hands beating his own chest that felt so tight.
"Everything is because of him, Father ..all this catastrophe is because of Him!"
Tears that poured into his eyes until his face, the distress that had been held was finally revealed as well. For all these reasons, Anaya asks Reyhan to drop a talaq over her.
