Not I'm the Choice

An epilogue story without prologues, a story that never begins but ends without the word finished. Mind wrong? Someone you think loves you turns out his feelings are just a feeling of comfort, nothing more.

There was not much to say at the moment, there was no adorning smile. There was no beautiful twinkle in the eyes, only a sad look full of wounds that Hana was currently showing.

Up ahead she saw clearly how her husband had said the sacred promise along with his loved ones. Even back when Satria married her there was no such wide smile, no such adoring gaze as Satria stared at Desi.

Hana could see how much Satria loved Desi. Hana was envious, she wanted to be like Desi, she also wanted to feel a warm embrace from Satria. He wanted to see Satria smiling sincerely at him without any coercion. Hana wants to see how Satria says love to her, as Satria did to Desi.

But he's Hana, not the Desi Satria loves. She is Hana whom Satria hates.

This is so funny, in front of Hana saw her husband married and here Hana sat with both parents of her husband and Amel who was on the lap of her grandfather.

That's funny, huh?

Hana looked down at the grip of her hand held tightly by her mother-in-law, then glanced at the in-law who cast a guilty look at her.

"I'm sorry mom, son. Forgive the mother who can't do anything, forgive Satria." Hana knew and understood, how her in-laws who looked so guilty, she knew. That all these decisions are with Satria and Hana can only accept them.

With a wounded heart.

"Mother is innocent, don't apologize like that. This was the way God gave her." she smiled even though now her heart was screaming, crying out for her to surrender to the world.

"Your dear mother." and Hana's smile widened to hear her in-laws' affection.

"Hana loves you more, Hana thanks for being a second mother to me."

"Father!" Satria turned her head as the princess yelled out to her, walking up to her with Desi beside her in Hana's lead. Satria only glanced at Hana who was downcast, reluctant to look at her.

"Why did you marry him?" amel's innocent question was answered by a nod to Satria's head, regardless of Hana feeling her chest hurt.

"Yeayy, means now Amel has two mama dong?" amel's plain speech that did not understand anything, continued to spin in his ears without stopping.

"Dear, this is Desi's mother who is now your mother." Desi who was beside Satria immediately smiled as her husband introduced himself to Amel.

"Hello, Amel dear."

"Hello's mom too!"

Desi chuckles amusedly and pinches Amel's chubby cheeks. "Ihh, you're so funny to make mom anxious." the kid just laughed funny because he got such treatment.

Unlike Hana who was silent staring at the child with her husband and second wife, for a moment Hana was silent. Is he forgotten? Then, if that happens, what should he do? Amel is the reason he is still alive in this world.

Hana gasped as Desi stuck her hand out in front of her, "It's nice to meet you, Hana." Desi said with a sweet smile imprinted on her lips.

Desi is very beautiful, it is fitting that Satria is so fond of her.

"Y-yes, nice to meet you too. Congratulations on the wedding."

A wife who said congratulations to the second wife of her husband, this is very painful.
