Fathi is in a tug-of-war race with Hasbi. They pull each other interesting. Suddenly Mala helps Hasbi pull the mine. Fathi was as strong as she could pull her mines so as not to lose. Mala pulled out the scissors and smiled at Fathi. Mala Scissored the mine while Fathi was pulling it with all his might. As a result, Fathi lurched backwards. Fathi had already resigned and closed his eyes. Luckily, there was a man who helped Fathi before he fell to the ground. Fathi's back hit the man's chest. Fathi looked back she wanted to say thank you. But Fathi could not see his face.
The man asked his condition. " Are you okay?" Fathi could not make a sound just nodding.
" Thank God. I hope you're always okay because I don't want you to get hurt. Take off that rope if it makes you feel tormented. I'll always be behind you." Fathi was stunned and tried to look at that face. But it was hard that he could not see it. Then his eyes opened. He looks around. He's still in the car.
Apparently he's asleep. That dream, was a dream last night. He could not see the man's face either.
What does the dream mean? Why did he dream the same thing? Is this a guidance from Allah on his prayer? Could the rope describe her marriage? Although he was as strong as he could pull the rope, eventually the rope was cut off. Does that mean I should get divorced from Hasbi? Who's the guy? Why is it so hard to see his face? What does the word mean? Many questions in Fathi's brain revolve around the dream. He did not realize the car had stopped.
" Fathi's...Fathi !" Amih called out to Fathi by patting her hand. Fathi gasped at Amih.
" Yes, yes ."
" Let's go down and bengong ! Please help Hasbi bring stuff in the back."
" Yes Amih." Fathi came down and approached Hasbi.
Kayla wears a stroller pushed by Mala. Fathi carrying Kayla's gear bag . Hasbi brought a bag. Amih invites Fathi to walk by her side. Hasbi and Mala walk side by side.
Is it their conspiracy to keep Hasbi and Kayla away from him. Negative thoughts haunt Fathi. Repeatedly Fathi recited it in his heart.
They stopped at every animal enclosure. Kayla looks happy. Fathi notices Hasbi and Mala who are with Kayla. They are like a happy little family. Fathi's smile, smile. Everything's gonna be fine. Fathi gave a suggestion to his heart.
Next to Fathi there was a man along with a small child looking at a gazelle.
" Om.. Can I give you some antelope?" Ask the little boy
" Can't be darling. We are forbidden to feed them. All the animals here have been fed by their officers." Answer the man. Fathi just listened without looking at them.
" Why is it? They will starve.
" They will not go hungry. They will be fine.Just if we continue to eat food does not fit, they will be sick." As soon as he heard the man say fine Fathi immediately turned to them. The man had gone with the boy. Fathi looked at his back which slowly drifted away. Why is his voice the same as the man in his dreams. Maybe it's just a coincidence.
Fathi felt someone embrace her from behind. " You're doing here. Let's eat." Hasbi took Fathi's hand.
" Brother Fathi here. We're having lunch. We'll continue walking again." Mala was feeding Kayla. Fathi just smiled.
" I've prepared a meal for you." Mala thrust a plate containing rice and side dishes.
Hasbi sat next to Mala. Amih pulled Fathi to sit next to her. Today Fathi is like a robot just according to what they say. Not wanting to argue or ask for anything. He's just smiling. Apih did not come. He had a golfing appointment with his best friend.
Kayla stood up and walked slowly towards Fathi. " Where's the granddaughter going? Don't bother namah, he's eating. Same with Bubu." Amih gave Kayla to Mala.
" Fathi let's eat a lot. We're still going to walk again to see the other animals." Fathi smiled in response to Hasbi who replied with a big smile Hasbi.
" Mala have you ever ridden a bicycle not yet ragunan? Ask Amih.
" Never before, can you ride a bike here ?"
" Maybe, there's a bike rental. You're playing with Hasbi's bike ! Let Kayla in the same care of Fathi and Amih," Amih pointed to the place where the bike rental.
Mala glanced at Hasbi. Hasbi stood up and took Mala to rent a bicycle. " Fathi you want to come. Let's ride bikes together." Hasbi invited Fathi too.
" No, Fathi's here. Later if Kayla cries Amih can not calm down. Change it if you guys have, then Fathi is playing the bike."
" Yes Amih." Fathi answered briefly. After all, he had expected this. Nor did he hope .
" Yes already ." Hasbi walked with Mala to the bike rental.
" Fathi ate it?"
" It's Amih."
" When you've been given the machine, baby. Junkahmya plastic entry. The lunchbox is closed again in the bag. Let's just as soon as Hasbi's done playing his bike we can walk right away."
"Yes Amih." Fathi smiled broadly. He found his in-laws funny. Said to change the bike. Just said after Hasbi finished cycling we will go straight back. So plin plan. Apparently, his father-in-law was trying to keep him away from Hasbi and bring Mala closer to Hasbi.
Fathi cleared everything. If you know the gini, he asked Hasbi to invite Mbok Jum. He felt like ART being taken for a walk by his employer.
" Home from here Hasbi is going to Mala's house. The next week Hasbi's time is with Mala. You don't bother them, don't call Hasbi. That week Hasbi belonged to Mala. So, Fair isn't it? Kayla will also be coming with Hasbi." Cousin suddenly.
" What ? I'm sorry, if it's Kayla's problem, Fathi disagrees! Kayla was a kid. He would be confused if he moved. Kayla better stay with Fathi. Why do I have to go too ?" After a day of restraining emotions, Fathi finally made a sound . Rejecting the idea of Amih. After all Amih has no right to interfere and manage his family.
" You're both Hasbi's wives, you're Kayla's mother. You gave birth to her and Mala took care of her. Let it be fair then Kayla will also take turns staying with you a week and with Mala a week. That's fair."
" Amih, sorry. Why Amih helped arrange what we should do. This is our family. Let us organize and live it. Don't interfere too deeply. Sorry Amih. Maybe Fathi's attitude was disrespectful to Amih. But as a mother and a wife Fathi felt Amih was trying to keep Fathi away with Fathi's son and husband." Fathi brought out what she had been feeling all along.
But Amih did not answer.
"Amih, can Fathi ask ? Actually what makes Amih like does not like Fathi. Did Amih want Fathi to quit this marriage, and leave Mas Hasbi and Kayla?"
The real question will not affect his decision. He just wanted to know the reason Amih always cornered him and sided with Mala.
