Sharing Love: She's My Husband
Chapter 35

Dinner still goes on.

" I'm eating it done. Here Kayla same Papah . Mama wants to eat first." Hasbi took Kayla.

Fathi continued eating. " Fath how about we walk the ragunan. Kayla must have loved to see so many animals." Hasbi says enthusiastically.

" It may be. It's up to you ." Answer Fathi.

" You will cook a lot for us to eat there. Mas will take Mala, Amih the same Apih. " Fathi was transfixed for a moment then she continued eating.

" Yes, yes."

They're done eating. Fathi washes dirty dishes. After finishing Fathi was about to join Hasbi. Fathi stopped his steps. He saw Hasbi was VC with Mala. Hasbi held Kayla who was also laughing at the phone. They look like an LDR couple who are taking off longing.

Fathi approached them. Let them enjoy their togetherness. He better go to the room to save his heart. It turned out to be difficult even though it had separated the husband could no longer be Fathi's property entirely. His heart was divided.

Sisca said she was just trying to lie to herself. He closed his eyes to the reality.

Chequek...

" Fathi, it turns out you're here. I'm waiting in dalem. Kayla watches cartoons. Yuk Kayla's friend." Hasbi pulled Fathi's hand.

" I've called Amih and Mala. They were so happy to hear that we were going for a walk. Padajal is just apegunan." Hasbi chuckles.

Fathi only responded with a faint smile.

" Mama.bobo ." Kayla is already sleepy she wants to sleep while mimi milk.

" A minute, baby. Mama make the milk first." Fathi went to the kitchen to make milk.

Hasbi took Kayla to her room.

Chequelek

" It's a pity that the milk is already so." Fathi gives her milk bottle directly taken by Kayla.

" Current ." Fathi chuckled at Kayla's language.

" Because, come on, Bobo."

Kayla lay. Fathi tidied Kayla's hair. He patted Kayla and broke into a hole. Hasbi looked at Fathi. He feels Fathi is different today. He is quieter and often daydreaming.

Hasbi saw Fathi shed tears. Fathi always cries when she is broke. She did not suspect Fathi's crying was not as usual . Her crying was sobbing more than just tears.

Fathi felt very guilty for the Creator. He was arrogant with his heart that felt strong. Maintaining love for the husband to hurt the heart of his creation. God hates divorce, but God does not forbid it. Every household has different problems. There are some things that are better for divorce, if in doubt then pray istikharah until you are sure with your heart what you should do. Not what you want. Sometimes the answer is not in our favor. Don't lie about the direction God has sent down. Doing the opposite does not correspond to your istikharah results.

Fathi asks God for guidance. He gave her the best way out.

Hasbi approached Fathi. He lay down next to Fathi and hugged her from behind.

" Sw.had it been a pity. Don't cry until Kayla wakes up. We pray together yuk already isya.

Fathi nodded her head. Fathi took Kayla's pacifier and kept it next to the mattress. He didn't want Kayla to choke.

Fathi and Hasbi pray in the room. Fathi and Hasbi studied for a while. They then prepare to sleep.

" Sleep Fath, you must be tired of looking after Kayla. I'm gonna be overtime there's something I need to do for tomorrow's meeting." Hasbi got up and took his laptop.

" Where are you going?" Ask Fathi.

" I'm going to the study. I don't want you to be distracted by the light. I have to be late. Understand Fath I'm just a secretary not the boss of the company." Hasbi then went outside and closed the door.

Hasbi was overtime in her study. He's putting together the files for tomorrow's meeting.

Hasbi saw the clock was already at 9 p.m. Hasbi took her phone. He called Mala to check on her condition.

" Hello Assalamu'alaikum," Hasbi started the conversation.

" Wa'alaikumsalam mas ."

" You haven't slept?" Ask Hasbi

" Not yet, it feels lonely so can't sleep."

" You bristled, don't forget to do'a tar also sleep. Lock the same window, too ?"

" Yes. Mas don't hang up the phone I want to hear the sound of the mas let's not be quiet. Try Mas sholawatan so I can sleep." Pinta Mala's.

" yes. You lie down first, doo'a keep on crashing . Sholawatan yes. Saladay........" Hasbi started shingling.

Fathi who would deliver drinks to Hasbi's friend overtime, heard everything. How Hasbi called Mala. He also heard Hasbi sholawat to make Mala sleep. Hasbi never did that to her.

Fathi gave me the drink. He went back to the kitchen and threw the drink away. He washes his glass. Then go back to the room. He can't sleep.

Hasbi hung up with Mala after she fell asleep. Mala is his wife. He has an obligation to look after it even if it is far away. Hasbi resumed her work. Hasbi's 10 o'clock is done.

As soon as Hasbi opened the door, Fathi was asleep. He went to the bathroom. 7 minutes later he came out and lay down next to Kayla. Hasbi tilted her body towards Kayla. Hasbi kissed Kayla on the forehead and embraced Fathi. After praying his eyes closed.

...***...

Today is sunday. They'll go ragunan. Fathi has been busy since dawn. He cooks cakes, rice, various side dishes for their lunch later. Assisted by her ART . Forced he asked his ART to come at 5am to help, thankfully ART was willing.

After finishing cooking Fathi rushed to bathe Kayla who was playing with Hasbi. After Kayla was beautiful, it was Fathi's turn to take a bath. He wears the same color as Kayla. She also wears Kayla a veil. Kayla looks cute and adorable.

They then had breakfast with Mbok Jum as well. At 7 they leave. To pick up Mala and Amih at Amih's house. Mala stayed there.

Arriving at Amih's house. They're down. Amih and Mala were waiting on the terrace.

" Assalamu'alaikum ." Hasbi kissed Amih's hand at Fathi's follow.

" Aa'alaikumsalam ." Mala then kissed Hasbi's hand.

" How are you doing Mala?"

" Good Mas, Alhamdulillah. "

" Kayla, what a beautiful Bubu kangen. Here's Bubu's carrying." Mala was about to hold Kayla but the cute baby refused. Mala's heart is sad. What is feared is happening. Because long time no see Kayla becomes forget her.

" Fathi, let Mala carry Kayla. She misses him. You help me carry the stuff inside." Then passed to the car.

Mala takes Kayla from Fathi's arms, Kayla cries. Hasbi helped Mala calm her down.

" Ssh.Sad this is Bubu. Kayla forgot to." Hasbi patted the top of Kayla's head.

" You get to the car first Mal, Kasian Kayla . There's milk in the car. In the front seat of Mal's milk. " Hasbi then went inside to retrieve Amih and Mala's luggage.

" Fath.please here. It's hard to take it !" Hasbi asked Fathi for help. In silence Fathi helped Hasbi. He keeps Amih's luggage in the trunk. Then Fathi was about to get into the car in front. He stopped opening the front door as soon as he remembered there was Mala. He opened the back door and entered.

During the trip only Fathi was silent. He did not want to get into their conversation. Fathi looked out the window. He remembered his dream. Could the dream be the answer of his istikharah prayer. He's not sure yet. He was afraid that the dream was just a reflection of his subconscious who always thought about divorce. He will continue to pray istikharah until he is sure.
