Yusuf still wanted to grab Khanza's hand, but the woman always dodged and intruded.
"Don't come any closer, Mum!" Khanza said with teary eyes. He got up from his seat and immediately walked over to open the door handle, but Joseph quickly grabbed him from behind.
"Sir, please don't hate me. Please be angry and curse as you please. But please give me a chance to explain everything."
Yusuf hugged Khanza's body tighter, his face drowned on the back of his whiny wife. Khanza is crying. His heart ached because he felt lied to.
"Let go, Mom! away from me!" His intrusion with a slightly raised voice.
"No! I'm not letting you go!" Joseph still strengthened his arms
"Take me off Joseph! Throw away all your sweet sayings but store up that much poison! I'll never believe it again!"
"Thank you for pretending to love me, and for accompanying my days yesterday, even though they were all fake. Thank you for making me feel loved. Sorry if yesterday I forced you to keep me up, Mas. But, believe me all because I'm afraid of losing and I sincerely love you. But now I realize that I am not the woman you expected."
Yusuf let go of his embrace, he twisted Khanza's body to face him.
"Sir, tell me again, that you love me!"
"Yes, yesterday I really admired and loved you, but after I knew the truth, then the love evaporated as if it were not there."
"Daddy, don't talk like that! What do you know about me?"
"You're a man who's never enough to have one or two wives!"
"Astaghfirullah, what do you mean Dek? I really don't know what you mean." Yusuf was still trying to ask Khanza's words which had no idea where he was going.
"I know, you have other women besides me and Ms. Tiara, Mas. And you're a liar. You disappeared without any news, and you had the heart to leave me alone while checking the womb, but you accompanied another woman to the hospital."
Khanza was already unable to resist the emotions mixed with tears. The woman leaned against the door leaf, her crying broke again.
"You're bad, Mom, I don't expect anything from you, I just need a little attention from you. Hicks..."
Yusuf rubbed his hair, his hand that wanted to reach Khanza, back he undo. The man went awry, his gaze so fixed on the wife who was now crying in disappointment.
"Daddy, don't think like that. You must have misunderstood." Yusuf ventured to get back to Khanza. "Say, when did you see me at the hospital with another woman? Was it late at about three?"
Khanza raised his head to look at the sharp eyes before him. What Joseph asked was true, this afternoon he saw Joseph with the hijab woman.
"Yeah. I saw you with another woman, and that woman..."
"Wearing hijab?" yusuf's question cut off Khanza's conversation.
Khanza was again glued to the face of her husband who looked no fear to admit it. Who exactly is that woman?
"Who is that woman, my friend? I saw you holding her so affectionately?"
Yusuf sighed deeply, it seemed like he had to explain everything. Khanza should know the truth. Even if Khanza will choose to separate after knowing the truth, it's okay, Yusuf resigned, because if the soul mate will not go where, they will definitely be reunited.
"Daddy, I'll explain everything. But do you want to promise?"
"What promise, Mom?" khanza asked, wiping away her tears. The woman tried to calm down.
"After I tell you the truth, promise not to leave me!"
"I can't promise if this is about any other woman, other than Ms. Tiara."
"Sir, there is no other woman, other than you and Tiara in my heart. Hows it? Do you want to promise?" joseph asked again to confirm to his wife.
Khanza Back confused by her husband, what's the matter? If it really wasn't the case for another woman, then she would have agreed to the agreement.
Slowly Khanza nodded, his eyes still glazed over. Joseph gave thanks in his heart. The man's hand stretched out to wipe away the tears of his wife who fell back.
"Come, honey, we're sitting down. I'll explain everything."
Khanza just nodded and followed in the footsteps of Yusuf who led him to sit on the sofa. Joseph returned to supply oxygen with all his chest.
"Dek, the woman you saw at the hospital with me, is Tiara. Actually, I'm not on duty out of town, but, I'm out of the country accompanying Tiara on medication. And we just came home yesterday, and this afternoon I accompanied Tiara for control while giving a letter of repatriation to the referrer hospital."
"Mister Tiara? What pain, Mom?" khanza asked so surprised
"Leukemia. That's actually the reason why I haven't dared to be honest with him, and now Tiara is back in the hospital. This afternoon he was fine."
Yusuf was again struck by fear and anxiety when he remembered Tiara's current condition. Khanza could not hide his sadness. Guilt was growing in his heart.
"Mas, why aren't you being honest with me about Ms Tiara's illness?"
"I'd love to be honest, Dek, but I'm afraid you're gonna budge and leave me. I can't lose you and our future son. Maybe I look like a selfish man, but everything has happened, and I can't think of this marriage as a game that I can easily let go of you, because now you're my wife, then I'll keep you and Tiara."
"But, I feel like an evil woman, Mas, for interrupting your concentration in taking care of Mbak Tiara, I'm sorry."
Khanza came back crying, he felt really guilty for being in the house of Yusuf and Tiara, and at this time Tiara was in a terrible pain, should she get the full attention of her husband. However, with his presence Joseph had to divide his time.
Yusuf grabbed Khanza's hand, and looked him in the face.
"Sir, don't feel guilty about this, you're not wrong in the least. Look at me, Dek." Yusuf cupped Khanza's cheeks so that the netra they met.
"Maybe I am not your true love, but accept the destiny that God has laid out today. As long as your heart is at ease with me, just stick with it no matter what."
Yusuf took Khanza into his arms, so that the woman's cries broke even more. Honestly her heart was so comfortable in the arms of her husband, on the other hand she felt very guilty because Tiara was very sick, but at this time Joseph was with her.
Seriate...
