My Office Boy's
52. Keeping Oral

Surya was still sitting on the bathroom floor, tears and sweat mixed into one revealing a sad sight. I don't know what Surya is confused about? Everything was blurred, his brain couldn't think well.

Almost half an hour Surya sat there, trying to gather strength.

With fatigue Surya stood up, taking the water of ablution and prayer isya, along with the prayers of the sunnah ba'diah and its witir. His tears kept flowing during prayer, no matter how hard he held it it turned out that the tears still burst out.

Ms. Rani is still in Kalia's room, as if she's afraid to leave Kalia alone. Worried that his son would do something harmful to him. Surya feels grateful for that, at least Bu Rani can keep Kalia safe.

Kalia's cry for divorce continues to ring in her ear. It hurts too much. Those words were like tearing the tendrils in his heart. Is that worthless piece of her in Kalia's eyes? Is all this his absolute fault as Kalia said earlier? Is it true that his existence has made Kalia become destroyed and lose everything as it is now? All those questions revolved like a top in his mind.

About two hours later, Ms. Rani came out of Kalia's room. Then met Surya who was sitting limp in front of the television. His eyes were blank, with a puddle of water still remaining in the eye pelupuk. The music show on TV looks lively, but it can not distract Surya in the least. It was like he was frozen in place.

Ms. Rani stroked her daughter-in-law's shoulder with a feeling of sadness. He knew that Surya loved his son very much.

" Kalia is asleep." said Rani's mother. Then sit next to his daughter-in-law. Surya sighed heavily then lowered his gaze, looking at the tip of his own foot.

" Sorry Lia ya Surya. Mama didn't think that Kalia would be so shaken up like that. Surya should be able to understand Lia." Bu Rani tries to make her son-in-law understand while stroking Surya's back affectionately.

" What should Surya do Mah? Surya does not want to divorce Lia." said Surya while holding back his tears to spill.

" Sury loves Lia very much. Whatever Surya is willing to give to keep Lia with Surya. Can Surya stay with Lia, Ma?" Surya raised his head then looked at both of Rani's eyes with a dreamy look.

Ms. Rani cried to see Surya's gaze that seemed to lose hope.

" Of course you can, Surya. Mama strongly believes that Surya is the right man who can take care of Kalia for the rest of her life. Don't ever let go of Lia. Now Lia is in need of immense moral support from all of us. But maybe Lia is taking some time to think. Mama is sure all the things Lia said just because of the momentary emotion." comforted Rani's mother still with tears that broke.

" Surya will never drop a talaq on Lia, Ma. Surya will be patient waiting for Lia. Maybe it's true that mom said, Lia is currently sad, being emotional. His words will Surya considered only affected by his condition." replied Surya while looking at his mother-in-law with a sad look. Bu Rani nodded then developed her smile.

" Yes, son. Thank God Surya had such thoughts. Mama is also calm because Surya is not carried away by emotions. Just be patient first, mama will talk to Kalia slowly. Only maybe it would be nice if some time in the future, Surya just stay in Lembang. So that Lia would not be emotional anymore. Later if everything has improved, then Surya talked again about this with Lia. How's it?" pinta Bu Rani be careful. Surya was silent for a long time.

" Mama didn't mean to drive Surya away. Not at all like that. Mama just wanted Lia to think. When Surya was not there beside her, what did Lia feel? Let him understand his own feelings and not get carried away by emotions." continued Bu Rani again. He was afraid that his daughter-in-law had misunderstood the meaning of his words.

Surya finally nodded.

" Yes, Ma. Good. Starting tomorrow, Surya will stay first at the Lembang house and give the widest time for Lia to think, as important as Surya in his heart.Syara replied later despite it feels so painful. But there was nothing he could do, maybe this was the only way he could save his household ark with Kalia.

That night, Surya forced him to rest. Rani's mother returns to accompany Kalia. And Surya sleeps in the guest room. By midnight, Surya had not fallen asleep. All the bad things about the continuation of his relationship with Kalia continue to haunt him.

But Surya remembered his father's teaching, that there were three words that even when they were spoken in jest by a man, their meaning would remain serious in the eyes of God. Especially when it is taken seriously. Those three words are marriage, reconciliation, and divorce. So Surya will really keep the oral this time, because once he said the word divorce even though in the form of innuendo, the meaning will remain the same that fell talak. Although there are three times new talaq declared religiously divorced. But even Surya doesn't want to drop his talc on Kalia. He loved his wife very much, no matter what the circumstances of Kalia were.

***

In the morning, Surya prepared to go to work as well as say goodbye to Mother Rani that she would go home Lembang.

Berat actually stayed away from Kalia in her current condition, but again Ibu Rani calmed her down.

" Surya is calm, Kalia is safe with Mama. Mama will take good care of Lia and Mama will also always advise her son. At any time mom would tell Surya about Lia's condition. Don't worry son." said Rani's mother while hugging her daughter-in-law with her eyes moist. Surya hugged her in-laws back with a haru feeling. He saw the door of Kalia's room, wanted to feel he rushed there and then kissed his wife affectionately.

" Would always pray for us Ma. Surya wants to remain Lia's husband regardless of Lia's condition later. For Surya, Lia is a gift that God has entrusted to Surya guard, and Surya must also be responsible for the world and the hereafter." said Surya while staring at his in-laws. Rani's mother nodded haru.

" Mama knows and Mama believes Surya is the right priest for Lia. Hopefully soon Kalia changes her mind and you can be together again to live a happy household. It is the most important do'a mama at this time." said Rani Mother while stroking her favorite daughter-in-law's cheeks gently.

" It works carefully, which consents. Don't keep thinking about Kalia. You have to take care of your health, you have to take care of yourself. May the storm you are facing pass away."

" Thank you, Ma. Surya pamit first, once again Surya tipped Lia yes, Ma." Rani's mother nodded with a smile. He took her soft hand, and then kissed her with reverence.

" Asalamualaikum's chat.."

" Waalaikumsalam.." answered Rani's mother full of days.
