Days passed, Diah had already made up her mind for the continuation of her marriage to Ardi. He no longer wants to live like this. Live with pretense and become an inner burden for the husband.
"I'm sorry mommy, don't you want to separate you from your dad. But, this is for the common good. Later if you are an adult you will definitely understand the steps you take." Diah muttered to the child who was still in his stomach.
Diah walked to the room of the Goddess Mother. All this from the Goddess Mother began, then, from the Goddess Mother it should be this ended. Diah believes, if the Goddess Mother is given understanding will also understand. Not all wills must be obeyed, otherwise it will only sacrifice the hearts of his son and other women who also hurt his heart.
"Mama,"
"Diah's? What's up, dad?" Sahut Bu Dewi once saw Diah in the doorway of her room.
"Diah wants to talk to Mama for a minute."
"Look in, yeah." Said Miss Dewi who sat on the lip of the bed, "what's wrong? How do you seem to be serious?" Continued Bu Dewi looked at Diah who was getting closer. Then patted the empty space in front of her for Diah to sit there.
Diah looked at her in-laws face, feeling a little guilty at the hopeful old lady. But, Diah has to tell her, give her some sense if this marriage isn't okay. And maybe it'll just hurt each other.
"Ma, mama is better now. Though she was not fully healed, at least she was no longer lying in bed."
"True Diah, and it's all thanks to you. Thank you, mother's daughter-in-law." Said Madam Dewi sincerely, hugging Diah's body.
"Ma, is mom happy?" Ask Diah after their embrace ends.
"Happy, very happy."
"Thank God," Diah smiled faintly.
"Mama will soon have a grandchild, have a good son and a dream daughter-in-law. How unhappy mom, Diah." Said Miss Dewi grasping and patting the back of Diah's hand.
"Ma, Diah thinks this marriage isn't right."
The face of the Goddess maam changed, frowning incomprehensibly.
"Diah thought this marriage was not healthy, moreover, this child would be born. If the father and mother do not love each other, how will he get a happy life and education. I know, Mr. Ardi has not loved me all this time. He never forgets who and where he came from. It is not appropriate to be with Mr. Ardi."
"Dee, that's not true. Why do you think so? Why call your husband master?" Madam Dewi was concerned about Diah's attitude and thoughts right now. Madam Dewi realized that it could not be separated from her attitude and Ardi first. But, over time, Madam Dewi thought everything was going well and was happy. Didn't Ardi already say that he loves Diah? Then why does Diah still think like that?
"I know, ma, please don't ask and pressure Mr. Ardi again to be nice and sweet to me."
"I didn't pressure him, Ardi did all that purely from his heart. She loves you."
Diah shook her head, "this time only, please don't force your will, mama. Please respect me, please accept my decision. I, want a divorce.."
"Diah!"
"Mrs..."
"How can you..." Madam Dewi shook her head inexhaustibly, Diah will ask for a divorce when her stomach grows bigger. Moreover, the name of the mistress really makes the Lady Goddess as distant as her daughter-in-law. Very hurt Miss Dewi.
"Mrs, please, I beg you. It's my decision, I don't want to be in this painful marriage. I want to end it, I give up, madam."
Diah shook her head with the clear details that kept dripping. "Please, don't block my steps, let this time I decide for my life."
"Diah, I'm sorry if mom hurt you, I just want you to be happy. Just that, you and Ardi are the right couple."
Diah shook her head, Madam Dewi regretted many things, why Diah had to decide to separate. "Talk this out with Ardi, Diah. Mama knows you're the one who forced you to get married, but don't you guys love each other now?"
Diah shook with a shaky shoulder.
"Now you ask, answer honestly, don't you love Ardi?"
"It's the best, ma'am. My decision is unanimous. Please don't say to go on hunger strike or end life, it's torturing us."
Hearing the name of the mistress of Diah, Miss Dewi is certainly very injured. He already considers Diah his own son.

"Marriage book?" Ardi asked looking at Diah from her desk."why do you need a marriage book?" Despite being asked by curiosity, Ardi still pulled the drawer where he kept their marriage book.
"After this child is born, I will register the divorce with the religious court." Said Diah lirih. Instantly, the movement of Ardi's hand that was picking up the marriage book came to a halt.
"You mean?" Ardi took the marriage book, but kept it in his hands.
"I know, sir must have been very depressed all this time. Master is very unhappy with the pressure and our marriage. After we part ways, you don't have to pretend to be nice to me." Said Diah is still waiting for Ardi will submit a marriage book as a completion of filing for divorce later."No, actually, from now on, you don't have to do that anymore. I talked to the lady. And he understood,"
Ardi laughed bitterly. Then put the marriage book on the table. Diah took her wedding book.
"Have you thought about it?"
"It."
"What about the baby?"
"I'll take care of him,"
Ardi stared at sharp. "What are you going to take care of my son with?"
Diah fell silent, she understood Ardi's intentions. After childbirth it is impossible for Diah to go straight to work, or get a job. What's more, having a baby is hard.
"How are you going to fulfill his nutrition? How are you gonna look after her? Are you going to work? Are you gonna take my son to work too? Or leave it at daycare?"
Diah's tight-lipped,
"No need to divorce, and stay here, he needs the love of his parents. She needs enough nutrients for her growth. But if you remain selfish and very adamant. Leave the baby here."
Diah stared at Ardi in disbelief, how could her husband think of separating a mother from her baby. And calling himself selfish, all Diah did was to free Ardi. So that the man no longer has to play the show.
"Think carefully. I don't want my son to be deprived of nutrition and education if you take him with me with meager finances. If your business is done, you can leave, I'm busy." Say Ardi while double-checking the files on his desk.
