" What about Kayla?" Ask Hasbi.
" Kayla will come with me. He's still a kid, of course, going with his mom. "
" If you take Kayla, what about me? We'll feel lonely. You know ! Mala will not have children . Then will my house be forever without the presence of a Fathi child."
" You're Kayla's father. You can meet him anytime. I'm not gonna close the door, ma'am."
" That's different, Fathi. If I only visited for a few hours. But if Kayla is with me I can sleep with her and play after work. You also know how to get home without Fathi's child."
" Keep Mas want me to hand over custody of Kayla to Mas and Mala !" Fathi's voice was a little high.
" yes.. Mala will also take good care of it. She loved Kayla like her own child. If Kayla was with me she would have a complete different parent if she was with you who was just a single parent. That's what will happen if we divorce Fathi. I will fight for Kayla to fall into my hands. Because he's the only child I have !" Say Hasbi firmly.
" It's !" Fathi yelling.
" Dear Fathi, please stay by Mas's side. Fathi Mas please..." Hasbi hugged Fathi and cried. Fathi felt shaky. He did not have the heart for Hasbi. The one she loved with all her heart. He could not lie to himself that he still loved Hasbi.
" Mommy.I have to how? I'm just as stupid as you are. If I'm with you my heart hurts but we part my heart still hurts. Let alone seeing you like this." Fathi patted Hasbi on the back.
" Ten your heart ..Prayer istikharah Mas ask for His instructions. Let God lead you to give you the best path. Be sincere and expand the heart. I have also been praying for almost 1 month Mas to convince my heart and this is the result of my prayers Mas." Fathi let Hasbi cry. He knew it must be hard for Hasbi, too. They still love each other, but they'll hurt each other if they're together. Their dreams at the beginning of the marriage run aground.
After Hasbi calmed down. He let go of his embrace to Fathi. He stroked Fathi's white and beautiful face. A face that rarely smiles happily. The face that is now always sad. He can't keep his promise to Fathi to make him happy. Hasbi's face was getting closer to Fathi. Fathi then closed his eyes. He's still Hasbi's wife. Hasbi still has rights over him. Fathi felt something on her lips . Fathi also tasted the salt . Hasbi kissed him while crying. Fathi could no longer hold back her tears. She was crying too. They dissolved all the flavors in that kiss. Love and sadness.
Geck...Geck...Geck...
The sound of knocking on the door stopped them. With a hunt Hasbi's breath rubbed Fathi's lips and Cleared the tears on Fathi's cheeks.
" I'm sorry.I'm sorry Mas has hurt your heart so much Fathi.sorry ."
Geck...Geck..Geck..
" Sorry ma'am, Kayla is crying. " Mbok told me from behind the door.
" I'm forgiving you, Mom." Fathi smiled and moved to the door.
Chequek...
Mbok was surprised to see Fathi's red eyes as if he had cried.
" Kayla why Mbok ?" Mbok woke up from his daydream. Fathi looked at Kayla whose face still had tears left.
" This is Mom, maybe Kayla's tired of playing with me."
" Yes dear ..Kayla is tired of playing. Here Mbok let Kayla be with me.Please make her milk yes Mbok. Thanks for ."
" Yes, ma'am."
Mbok rushed to the back to make milk.
" Moh.. Kayla why cry? same with Papah mama." Fathi kissed Kayla's cheek.
" Here love Papah." Hasbi took Kayla. He smelled Kayla's face. How would Kayla fare if they divorced.
Fathi let Hasbi play with Kayla. He took his cell phone and recorded a video of them both. Then shortly Fathi set his phone on the table to record them. Fathi then joined Kayla and Hasbi. It will be their memory someday.
...***...
Fathi can't sleep. He looked to his side towards Kayla and Hasbi . Kayla slept so peacefully. Hasbi slept while holding Kayla. He was thinking if he parted with Hasbi and took Kayla, Hasbi would be lonely. Because she can't have any more children because Mala can't get pregnant. Kayla also if with him will rarely meet with Hasbi. Then Kayla will be a broken home child. It will affect its growth. If Kayla goes with Hasbi, Kayla will have a full family. Mala will take care of him like her own son. He will not lose a mother and father. But with Fathi Kayla will lose her father figure. It turned out that Hasbi's words affected his mind. Is it better Kayla with Hasbi. At least with Kayla Hasbi will not feel too lost. He will only lose the figure of Fathi not wife and child. "God gave me the best way out for me and my family. As a mother I don't want to lose my son but I also don't want him to be a broken home child and away from his father. I must how, O God, give you guidance. Amilium ." Fathi said in his heart.
Slowly his eyes closed.
Fathi felt someone shake his shoulder. He opened his eyes. He saw Hasbi smiling .
" Let's pray together tonight. " Whisper Hasbi. Fathi then saw the clock was at 3 in the morning. He sat down for a moment so as not to get dizzy. Then Fathi went to the bathroom for ablution.
Hasbi put a bolster next to Kayla so Kayla doesn't fall.
They pray tahajud. Continue with Istikharah prayer. They taught for a moment to wait for dawn.
...***...
Today is Hasbi's last holiday. As if they had been the same when they did not discuss the issue of their debate about divorce or custody Kayla. They seem to want to forget all the problems and enjoy togetherness as a happy family for today. They want to give you beautiful memories . Even Fathi became more frequent photographing or recording videos of anything. He recorded all their laughter and togetherness.
They are taking an afternoon walk to the park. Kayla is thrilled to be on top of a stroller driven by Hasbi. Fathi walked beside Hasbi and put his arm around Hasbi's arm.
" Well, there are snacks we go there yuk. I want to burn baso with ice cream." Hasbi smiled as she nodded.
Fathi buys a lot of snacks. He feeds Hasbi. Because Hasbi was holding Kayla.
They didn't realize two people were watching them. One of them seems to be unhappy with Hasbi and Fathi. One more person looked happy with Hasbi's smile. He sees them as a happy little family. But no one really knows that Hasbi and Fathi are hiding their grief and wounds. They realized this was their last day together.
