MY SECOND LOVE
Give me a second

Three months passed during that time also Alfi kekeh did not want to marry Sakti. He still wants to spend time with his mother-in-law. The next day he went alone in his room. This morning at breakfast, Alfi again felt dizzy, his eyes were yellow and his body was lying on the floor. Mama Elin immediately asked Mang Ujang for help to lift Alfi to her room. Mama called Sakti asking him to come here immediately.

After a while, Alfi finally woke up, he looked at his mother-in-law who was still waiting for him at the bedside. Alfie looked at someone who was standing next to his mother.

" Sky." Alfi Mumbled.

" Yes... Mama invited Sakti because Mama wanted to talk about your wedding." Say Mama.

" I told you I don't want to marry again, please respect my decision donk Ma." Alfi Sahut. He is the most lazy to talk about marriage.

" Mommy is worried about you being passed out this way, Mama can't always take care of you Fi." Mama Elin.

" I'm a big Ma, Mama don't have to worry about it, besides there is Mang Ujang also Ma." Alfie.

" dear... Listen Mama... Do you know what? Davi sent Sakti in his stead, as a substitute who would take care of you, accompany you, protect you and even love you dear." Mama Elin. Alfi looked up at Mama Elin.

" What does Mama mean?" Ask Alfie.

" Mama and Davi want to see you happy, son, please fulfill the last wish dear Davi, marry Sakti." Mama Elin said her tears made Alfi not have the heart to see her.

" Even the land of Mas Davi's tomb has not dried up, right Ma, only three months after the departure of Mas Davi but Mama has told me to marry again?" Tanya Alfi stared in disbelief at the Mama-in-law in front of him. How could He say that to Alfi who was still in mourning.

" dear.. Life has to go on, son, your future is still long, Sakti will be a substitute for Davi, Mama sure surely he can love you as much as Davi loves you Nak." Mama Elin.

" No one can love me as much as Mas Davi Ma, not even a thousand Sakti." Steady Alfi cold.

" Don't be like that baby, everyone has their own hearts, Mama sure that Sakti can love you more than Davi." Mama Elin.

" Why does Mom want me to marry her so strongly? What was your real purpose in driving me out of this house? Mama can't stand me anymore?" Ask Alfie.

" Dear don't ever think like that, Mama loves you so much as Mama loves Davi Nak." Mama Elin's.

" Why then, Ma? Why is Mama so strong want me to marry Sakti?" Alfi Search.

" Mommy just wants someone to take care of you after your dear Mama's departure." Mama Elin's Murmuring.

" I'm sorry baby if you don't want to miss pa pa, I'm sorry Mama once again." Mama Elin said with a look of disappointment. Alfi looked at Mama Elin who was walking towards the sofa.

Alfi asked in his heart, Why is everything such a rush? What is your Mama-in-law planning? He could not refuse Mama Elin's request, because to him all Mama Elin's words were like a decree to her. Whatever Mama Elin's wish will always be fulfilled. She considers Mama Elin as her birth mother. But what about her request to marry again? Mama Elin knows she still loves Davi. If you really want to get married why should you be with Sakti? The man who made her husband lose his life before her eyes.

" Alice.." Call Sakti while approaching her.

" Marry me, I promise you I will give all my love to you, I will take care and love you more than Davi, I beg you to forgive me and help me keep my promise to Davi, I don't have much time here because my mom is waiting for me at home." Sakti's speech massaged his temple.

" I'll give you anything you want." Sakti convinced Alfie.

" What?" Alfi asked, Sakti nodded her head.

" What if you replace Mas Davi's life with your mother's?" Ask Alfie.

Degs....

Sakti and Mama Elin gasped in shock at Alfi's question. They did not expect that Alfi would be able to speak like that. The usually meek Alfi why was he able to speak that long now? Did he feel dead with his love?

" Keep your mouth Alfia, don't play with someone's life, it's not good Fi." Mama Elin's snapping shocked Alfi.

" He himself would give anything to me Ma." Kilah Alfie.

Alfi was shocked to hear the clash of his two in-laws. All this time her in-laws have always been gentle with her then what is this? He's snapping? have I gone too far, thought Alfi.

" I'm sorry if it's upsetting you, but for now let me be Ma's, I haven't thought about remarrying, if I have to be a widow let me be a widow forever." Said Alfi while looking down.

" It's up to you Fi... Mama does not know with let alone Mama persuaded you, Mama raised her hands about this because you are stubborn, it is no longer necessary to discuss it, Mama's wrong for rushing to persuade you to marry again." Mama Elin.

" Sakti sorry for Alfi's words, do not take heart ya." Mama Elin glanced at Alfie.

" No pa pa Aunty I'm sorry, if possible I would have exchanged my life for Davi's life." Sakti.

" Thank you son, you are a good boy." Mama Elin's.

" I'm sorry Tan." Pamit Sakti greets Mama Elin with reverence.

" Assalamu'alaikum." Sakti.

" Wa'alaikumsallam." Mama Elin's.

Sakti left immediately without caring about Alfi. He was unable to look at Aldi who was emitting hatred for him in his eyes.

" Dear Mama please take everything for granted, make peace with the past and achieve your happiness now." Mama Elin.

" Davi wants Sakti to be his successor so make it happen that Davi is calm there, forgive Sakti and marry him Mama can not always take care of you dear... Mama's getting old." Connect Mama.

" What does Mama mean?" Ask Alfie.

" In fact why Mama asked you to marry Sakti soon because Mama had to move to Singapore soon, Mama was afraid that no one would take care of you later here." Mama Elin said softly.

" lady... Mama's leaving me too?" Alfi looked at Mama Elin in disbelief after losing her husband now she was abandoned in-laws.

" I'm sorry you don't have much time, you have to go there right away."Answer Mama Elin.

" Why don't I go with Mama and I'll free Sakti from her promise." Alfi's proposal hoped Mama Elin would take her.

" I'm sorry, dear Mama.. Mama can't take you, even if you're my own daughter, but we're still not who, without Davi we're still someone else, son." Mama Elin sobbed to say the hurtful word, but she had to do it so that Alfi would marry Sakti. He hoped that Alfi could soon find his happiness, and forget all his sadness.

" Mama can tell me that." Alfi Sahut.

"I'm sorry, but that's the truth." Mama Elin.

" You want to realize Davi's wish? Marry Sakti so Mama will calmly leave you with Sakti here, consider this as proof of your love for Davi Nak." Mama Elin kept begging him.

Alfi thought for a moment, no matter how much he refused his father-in-law's wishes still the end of it He would marry Sakti. He thought maybe this was the life line he had to live. Married a man he hated.

" I'm going to avenge this pain on you Sakti Arviano, you are responsible for the suffering I'm going through now, After you made me lose my husband, now you're leaving me behind. I want to see how long you can endure this hatred of mine." Alfi murmured inwardly as he glanced sharply at Sakti who was still loyal standing beside mama Elin.

" Give me time Ma, I'll try to consider it." At last, that was the word that came from his lips.

" Thank you dear." Mama Elin hugged Alfie back. His heart was a little relieved, Alfi was willing to consider everything.

While behind the door Sakti smiled with relief, he hoped that Alfi would accept it. He will slowly try to win the heart of Alfie.
