Other Dream Women
Chapter 66. Rise up

Angkasa drove the speed of his car at a moderate speed through rain water that increasingly flushed the earth. Every drop of sky that came down was like the tears of the younger brother who had never stopped flowing from the window of his heart. The woman was still seen drifting in the sadness and also the heartbreak she felt. His clothes also looked wet because just a moment ago, he chose to curl up under the cold water of the sky.

"Is this all the recompense which Allah has given me, for I have not obeyed the words of my father, Brother?"

The question coming out of Cahya's lips broke the silence created between the brother and sister. Angkasa reviewed a little smile, relieved, at least the sister began to be able to open her mouth to speak. Because from now on, he seemed to dissolve in his own mind while looking closely at the outside of the window.

"Whatever it is, let's just say this is all a test in your household, Ay. Every household does have its own test and it happens that this kind of test comes to your household's midwife."

Space presents its argument wisely. He must be careful in talking so that not what he says actually makes the younger brother more depressed. He does not want if his only sister is continuously confined by feelings of guilt.

"I really didn't expect it to be like this Brother. I really didn't expect that the Clouds would betray me. While I was with him, I always tried to offer the best for him. What's my cage, brother? What's?"

Cahya cried terjugu. He buried his face in both palms. After he recorded all the pain he felt alone, now he spilled in front of Space. He felt, at this time only Space could be a friend to divide the untold wounds.

"Well, all that befalls you is not because of your shortcomings. It all happened because of the lack of gratitude the Clouds had. He is not good at being grateful for the greatest pleasure he has had by having a wife like you. So he doesn't know how to keep you."

"Before I felt able to deal with all this Brother, but the more here I felt the weaker. I don't feel strong enough to live it."

Angkasa reviewed a slight smile on his lips. Although he was not experienced in household problems like this, but he could feel what was now felt by Cahya.

"Now, spill all the things that shackle your chest. Spill your pain. Shed your tears and shed your disappointment. But after that, you back up your face, back to standing straight by puffing your chest to live a life that still has to keep going."

Cahya hardened her crying. Even the woman's body seemed to tremble as if trying to throw off all the pain that stung the soul. His lips locked, his tongue twisted, as if unable to say if the wound of his heart had completely torn apart the power he had.

"God will never give a test beyond the limits of His servant, Ay. If God gives you a test like this, it means your shoulders are strong to support it. Believe me, there will be a wisdom behind this test that befalls you," continued Angkasa with his wise words.

Cahya fell silent, pervading every word that was uttered by her brother. He realized that everything that happened was written on every page of his destiny. It's just a play in a world full of this falsehood. There was nothing he could do but follow the path set by the director.

"Where are we going now, Ay?" ask the slightly confused Space when encountering a crossroads.

Cahya was stunned and began to focus on the next step she had to take. "Straight, brother, then turn right. I want to pick up the kids and pick something up. After that I'll take the kids away from home for a while."

"Alright Ay, the most important thing is that you calm yourself first."

Space smiled meaningfully. Although he is currently very concerned about what his sister is going through, he is also happy. Eventually, he was able to meet in person with his nephew.

"Yes Allah ma'am Cahya ... Why is Cahya's clothes soaked like this?" ask a little panic.

Asih and Kasim welcomed Cahya's arrival with a face filled with shock. Because his employer's body looks so messed up. My face and wet clothes.

"I'm fine, Sir, Bik." Cahya began to enter the living room area and was followed by Angkasa. "Oh yes, after this I want to leave this house for a moment. Kasim sir and how's Asih? Want to stay here or come with me?"

A couple throwing views at each other. Their eyes seemed to be talking that they already knew what was going on.

"We'll go with Cahya ma'am!" replied Kasim firmly and straightforwardly.

Cahya nodded her head while smiling knot. "All right then. Mr. Kasim and bik Asih packed yes. For a while, we leave this house until the situation is under control."

"Good Mom."

Kasim had been paying close attention to the figure of the man who had been trailing the master. From the look of Kasim's eyes seemed to wonder about who this man was, but he was reluctant to say.

"This man is my brother, sir. His name is Angkasa. During this time he lived in Kalimantan," said Cahya explained after seeing the look on Kasim's face filled with question marks.

Space slightly bent its body as one form of respect. "Greetings to you sir, Bik."

"Yes Angkasa, greetings also."

Cahya breezed out of the living room area. He intended to clean himself up and then get ready to leave. But when passing in front of the room of his two daughters, he took the time first to enter their room.

Cahya sat on the edge of the bed while looking closely at the faces of her two daughters who looked so peaceful in her sleep. Again, the tears came back without excuse. There was still a slight sense of tightness lingering within the heart.

"Surely Mother wants to present the perfect family to you, Son, but she can't. Forgive Mother because after this step you will be a little limp because you do not have the figure of a father who is always on the side. But Mommy promises with Mother's own footstool, you will never lose the affection of the father figure. Mother will take a dual role for you."

Cahya kissed Malika and Alina's forehead alternately. Trying to find strength from inside the bodies of his two daughters. He is increasingly aware that his two daughters will always be the source of his strength to face a world full of deceit.

Cahya got up from her sitting position. He wiped his tears and he took the air deep.

"Stand up and rise up! Do not let your pride get trampled underfoot because it is weak and gives up. Show the world and those who betray you that you are a strong woman who is not easy to defeat" the monologue Cahya crested to strengthen yourself.
