Aisyah who saw the cry without the voice of the brother, immediately embraced the body of her brother who had seen signs of aging like never before. Aisyah looked up at her brother's face, where Aisyah could see Azzam's sincerity and love for her sister.


" Ais "


" It has to be how "


" Ais, sinful all this time left him" said Aisyah stammered with a hiccup


" He promised to sincerely accept your condition all along, he also accepted if you were not together until you were willing to accept his presence again by your side "


" He is happy with what happened, he is also pleased with wherever your footsteps step so that there will be no sin because it is "


" He has promised that, so that you cannot refuse the destiny that Allah has set for you "


" If you feel hurt, and it is because of Brother then the law is Brother, dik "


" Son has sinned because he hurt you by not telling you what is true "


" Sister feels failed to protect you, and your children "


" Sister failed" said Azzam who this time looks once to put a burden on his heart that he has been quiet.


Everyone was silent to the family drama.


Aisyah was still crying, she was very surprised, not expecting that after all these years she felt that she held the status of a widow, and it was just her delusion, in fact, she is still a wife to Adhitama. This is beyond logic, how can this happen. Does not Adhitama not love him, is this because of how much Adhitama hates him, so that he always shackled himself in the grasp of the Adhitama.


" A innocent man "


" It shouldn't have been from the beginning that Ais asked her to release Ais" said Aisyah who wiped Azzam's tears.


" Don't cry anymore, Ais doesn't like to cry like this because of Ais" Aisyah said


Aisyah tried to calm herself down, trying to make peace with the circumstances. Aisha tried to stand up. He came towards the Adhitama who was standing not far from his position.


" I ask for mercy "


" Please let me go" said Aisyah who was resting under Adhitama's feet. Aisyah's head looked up at Adhitama hoping that Adhitama would let go, but what happened was that Adhitama immediately lowered her tall body without releasing her eyes from Aisyah.


" No "


" Even to my death, or your death "


" You will always be my wife "


" I'm really sorry for what I've done "


" I beg you to forgive my mistakes" said Adhitama trying to caress the beautiful face of Aisyah who is not timid at eating age. But Aisyah turned her face away, Aisyah refused a touch from Adhitama which made Adhitama swallow disappointment, but Adhitama understood this because Aisyah must still be very surprised by the news that she just knew.


" So much do you hate me" said Aisyah with a mouthful


" No "


" I love you so much, Ice "


" Love my wife very much" said Adhitama softly


" Which wife "said Aisyah with sarcasm


" Aisha Amora Lesham "


" The only wife I love so much" said Adhitama looking at Aisyah's pretty face. But Aisyah smiled thinly by pursing her lips


Aisyah grabbed Adhitama's palm which was in Adhitama's mind if Aisyah forgave her. Aisyah directed her two hands Adhitama at Aisha's neck


" My life is halal for you to kill "


" None of my brethren will avenge my death "


" Nor with my two children" said Aisyah with a serious look at Adhitama's face.


Adhitama who heard Aisyah's words immediately shook her head


" No "


" It's not like that "


" I really love you, Ice "


" For Allah's SAKE "


" I only love you, my wife" said Adhitama trying to release the grip of Aisyah's hand which could be as strong and as hard as this


" Oh yes" said Aisyah smiling but looks a strange smile according to Adhitama, who turned out to be Aisyah's fingers while reaching for a large, but very sharp flower vase.


Aisyah managed to reach it, then with a slow motion stick the fraction towards the neck shaft where the arterial blood flow more precisely the neck vein (carotid artery ).


Without a word Aisyah swiped the shards, making her eyes widen, when Aisyah managed to stick the shards, but the movement of the Adhitama reflex makes Aisyah fail to press deeper into the vase of the flower that can sever the veins of the arteries (carotid arteries) in the neck area.


Even so, the cut from the broken vase that injured Aisyah made blood flow through the hijab worn by Aisyah. The frantic adhitama pressed against the area of the sabetan not to let it flow again, so that his hands were filled with Aisyah's blood.


Aisyah who was treated by Adhitama like that brushed off Adhitama's hand, and tried to grab the other shards of the flower vase with random movements so as to make Aisyah's hand hurt as well.


Adhitama trembling obstructed Aisyah from her impulsive actions, while Adhitama's sister-in-law gave her handkerchief to suppress Aisyah's wounds, while Adhitama's other sister-in-law immediately tied a safe cloth to Aisha's hand, do not let Aisha do the desperate again


" I'm sorry, Ais" said Aisyah's sister-in-law


" Quick take it to the hospital, Tama "Idris orders. They had never expected that this innocent daughter-in-law would behave like this. Unbeknownst to them, Aisyah had been under heavy pressure for some time that she had never shared with others. Know - know like this is also the story of his life. His life story is too stressful for his feelings so that Aisyah does not care anymore what happens to him who is diagnosed by a doctor will not live long.


Adhitama immediately carried the body of his wife who continued to rebel. Ammar and the rest of the brothers try to creep in to take over Aisyah's body. However, Azzam stopped the actions of his brothers who made Ammar hit the wall of the room until bruises on his fingers


" Istighfar, bang" said Adnan to see Ammar in the possession of emotions


" Sister has gone too far "


" I don't know ! " Ammar said in a loud voice looking at Azzam's face with eyes full of wounds, disappointed, angry, and sad "


" Lack of pain how my sister, bang "


" Less hurt how my sister, bang "


" This time I'm really disappointed in your decision "


" For this time, I'll see if this opportunity is being put to good use by the Bhalendra family, by that jerk Tama "


" I swear on behalf of Umma, Buya, on behalf of Allah SWT "


" The blood of Adhitama is lawful to me, by Allah I would be willing if I die like the death of Qobil "


" I was willing to be in hishab for my sin of killing that jerk" said Ammar loudly, whom he had never done to his older brother.


For the first time Ammar was disappointed with the decision of his older brother who could let Aisyah in the hands of the Adhitama.


Ammar walked out of the room followed by his two brothers who were also disappointed by Azzam's decision. Azzam was silent, fixated on where he stood, Azzam slightly staggered as his brothers had already passed away leaving Azzam who was still in the room. Fortunately, Siti was always by his side.


Siti led her husband to sit in a chair and gave Azzam a glass of mineral water to neutralize the turmoil in Azzam's heart


" You go home "


" Your husband must have been waiting for you in the lobby" said Azzam lowered his head, holding back not to show his sadness, but it was in vain, they could all feel the sadness in Azzam's heart, knowing the tone of Azzam's voice


" Sister, forgive my husband, bang" said Ammar's wife, who also endured his cries


" Not him wrong "


" This is all wrong Brother, convey your apology to him, dik "said Azzam who still lowered his head


" we go home first well, bang "


" Sister "sister-in-law of Azzam represented by Ammar's wife. Siti and Azzam nodded their heads. Siti embraces one by one her sisters-in-law


" We sholawat so that all is well "


" Sister do not worry, God willing we will persuade our husband to accept all the decisions that Umma has mandated to Brother and sister" said one of his sister's wives Azzam. And Siti nodded her head again as a sign of understanding and agreeing with what her sister-in-law suggested.


Adhitama's departure was followed by some of his younger brothers Adhitama as a form of brother solidarity. Only Adhitama's youngest brother remained in the room, to take care of his mother and the wives whose husbands helped Adhitama.


Sultan Bhalendra regrets this meeting could have been like this. Though he was very hopeful if this meeting became the bright spot of the split of two families. Sultan Bhalendra looked down at Azzam who had lowered his head.


" Azzam" said Sultan Bhalendra


" Yes, Uncle" said Azzam in a soft voice


" I'm sorry, because of my wish "


" until you are hostile by your siblings" said Sultan Bhalendra, bowing his head


Azzam raised his head, and gave a faint smile that Sultan Bhalendra could see


" They're just surprised by the reality I've been hiding all along


Going by time, they will later accept this "


" Like Uncle, I also carry out the mandate of Umma and Buya" said Azzam


" Thank you, Azzam "


" You are a dutiful son, they are very proud of you" said Sultan Bhalendra, who is proud to have a son like Azzam, unlike his grandson who until now could not solve the household problems on his own. Even making a relationship with his best friend's family cracked like this. Had it been time, he would not have married Idris to Malika who had a bad temper, he would not have agreed to his great-grandson's marriage to Aisyah.


Though the son of his other grandchildren, love Aisyah more than Adhitama. However, for some reason his great-grandson chose to step down rather than fight for his love, even choosing not to stay in this country because of heartbreak after witnessing Aisyah's marriage with her cousin.


Both Sultan Bhalendra and Azzam decided to postpone this meeting. And re-plan the meeting that this time will be done after all back is conducive, and everyone can be mature in the next meeting.


Azzam who was worried about his sister's condition immediately headed to the hospital where Aisyah referred. There Azzam saw his brother fall asleep. The hijab that wraps around the top of his head is not attached so that it shows a deep black hair color. Aisyah's pretty face is getting perfect.


" Well, Ice" said Azzam without turning his face away from his sister's face


" The doctor gave a sedative to make Aisyah calmer" said Adhitama calmly


" Leave Aisyah with me, let me take care of Ais" said Azzam who made Adhitama speechless in his place


" Bang "


" Let me be with my wife, just let me give Aisha an explanation "


" Tama thought, maybe it's time Tama explained everything "


" Please give Tama a chance to give an explanation and convince Aisyah ", Adhitama said with great courtesy to make Azzam touched. It may be true what Adhitama says if Aisyah and Adhitama need to speak up for the continuation of their love story. Azzam did not want Aisha's status to be hung like this. His sister deserves to be happy.


Azzam immediately stood up from his seat after peeping on the face of his sister who was still sleeping.


" My sister is halal to you, but to me it is not "


" before you marry my sister back "


" Try to convince Aisyah, for she is fragile in the past that you have badly painted on her memory "


" I'm giving you a chance, doesn't mean I'm paving the way for you to hurt her again, not for it "


" As Ammar said, if your blood is lawful to me if you repeat your mistake "


" And that, is a sign of Lesham's war for the Bhalendra family" Azzam said firmly staring at the bead of Adhitama's eyes.


Adhitama who heard the words spoken on Azzam's lips was not daunted at all by what Azzam had said, because from the beginning he was determined not to repeat his mistakes like in the past. For him Aisyah and her children were the most important points in her life. Adhitama no longer wants to get caught up in the blind jealousy that makes him unable to see well which one is really planning. So that makes himself into the trap of people who want him separated from his small family.


That determination is rooted in the heart of Adhitama to never happen again, Adhitama does not want to repeat the same mistake, no, absolutely will not remain no, and will not make any other mistake that might hurt his wife and children.


After some time later, Siti invites Azzam to go home after all it is getting late at night . Not only Aisyah who needed their rest was the same, which Azzam and Siti then say goodbye to Adhitama, after a few sentences of advice from both for Adhitama to apply.


Siti has always been a support system for her husband where she was always present to help Azzam through the bitter phase of life, always supporting Azzam from behind, and ready to help Azzam when Azzam was in trouble.


Siti also always helped Azzam when Azzam was down (feeling down ) like tonight, Siti did not leave Azzam who was in a difficult phase, nor the hardest life. Siti told her husband not to worry too much about Aisyah, let alone that they had spoken directly to the doctor about Aisyah's current condition. Although the two of them did not look after Aisha, there was Adhitama who would give them news about Aisha. After all tomorrow they will come back to the hospital to visit Aisyah.
