...I will prove everything to keep you by my side. Whether it's ridiculous or not, for you all I'll do....
...~Gibran Bara Alkahfi...
...🌴🌴🌴...
The couple's quarrel ended when Bara opted out of the room. He was forced to leave the house so as not to release his emotions in front of his wife. Really don't want to get out of control. He doesn't want to make Almeera any further away from him.Â
His mind recalls when his wife asked to separate. When the face begged him to end it all. Bara's head shook his head. At any moment he won't divorce Almeera. He won't be separated, now or later.Â
"I love you, Ra." A tear fell on his cheek.Â
Bara crying. He stopped his car and immediately placed his head on top of both hands. Honestly, his heart hurts. He is not far from his wife and two children. Almeera, Abraham and Bia are his soul. They've been with him all this time and he's not ready to lose it all.Â
Not having a clear goal, Bara finally headed for his parents' house. He can't tell his two best friends. Bara does not want others to know how the state of the household. He better go to Abi Hafiz, a father figure who will certainly give him advice even though he rejected his decision to polygamy.Â
When the car he was driving arrived. The door of the house opened and the figure of Ummi Mira appeared. Seeing the arrival of her son, the woman immediately greeted him with a happy face.
As much as the child's faults, parents are still able to forgive. Abi Hafiz and Umm Mira. Both were disappointed with their son's decision. But not by staying away from him. A child is sometimes misguided and it is the parents who have the right to set him straight and help him get back on the right path.Â
"Patience, Son. Abi knows everything must be heavy" Abi Hafiz said with a hand patted on his shoulder.
Bara's parents heard his son's story carefully. They even let Bara say everything until the son was satisfied. They did not want to interrupt one bit so that the heart of his son was a little more relieved.
"If you can't control one of them, then choose one of them" said Abi Hafiz, who made Bara spontaneously raise her face.
"No, Bi. I won't!" answer Bara refused.Â
"Why not? Isn't this your responsibility for your decision?"Â
Telak.
Bara. He seemed to get a slap from his father's words. His memory certainly rotates when asking for blessing. The decision taken certainly makes him have to accept whatever happens in the future. And now, yes, one of them.Â
"It's the best way, son. Let go of one of them."
"No, Bi. I don't want to divorce Almeera. L loved her. She's my wife, and the mother of my two children" Bara said firmly.Â
"But do you want to be selfish with Almeera?" abi Hafiz asked quickly. "He's locked up with unhappiness, son. She's not happy with you."Â
Bara. He closed his ears as if he was reluctant to listen to his words. His intention to ask for an opinion, even making his head feel more dizzy.Â
"Bara is not selfish, Bi. Bara loves Almeera."
"Abi knows," Abi Hafiz quickly replied. "But think of Almeera's feelings, son. Think carefully!"Â
"Remember this, son. Not because you're happy, you're trying to darken your eyes about everything that's going on." The advice of Umm Mira who has been silent since.Â
"What do you mean, Ummi?" tanya Bara doesn't understand.
Ummi Mira approaching. He held his two hands until the eyes of the mother and child looked at each other.
"In Islam, a man is allowed polygamy, on condition that the first wife is sincere and happy. But.." pause Umm Mira quietly and take a deep breath before continuing his words." If your wife is unable and unhappy. Then it's your duty to let go."Â
Bara back sculpting. His tongue seemed to groan only to refute. His body suddenly suffocated to hear the advice of his parents. All the words of Abi and Umminya certainly entered his mind.Â
Until the tears came back. The man covered his face with both hands. The father of the two children, looks so bad.
"Oath to God, I love Almeera so much, Bi. Bara can't lose it."Â
Bara Head looked up. He looked at the face of Abinya who was staring at him as well.Â
"Take Almeera's heart again. Try to be a more patient person. Learn to make Almeera happy like you did when you were dating" Abi Hafiz said seriously. "Maybe it sounds silly, but take her heart by giving her a fondness, son. Like flowers, chocolates, cook food for her. What you used to do, try again."Â
"Beware of Almeera. Trying to suppress your ego and emotions in front of him. Don't yell at him or hit him no matter what the problem is between you."Â
"Bara never hit Almeera, Abi."Â
"good. Maintain, Son!" abi Hafiz said slowly. "Hard heart of women. He has feelings and easily gets out. Abi believes that you are warm and trying to grab his attention. Almeera will see your efforts."Â
All of his advice was recorded in his brain. Recorded and he remembered to do so. I will really do everything. Being the old Bara, when they were dating. He would do anything to let his wife know if he really didn't want Almeera to leave.
"Father pray that your mission succeeds. You also pray to God. Ask your wife to be softened and given more patience."Â
...🌴🌴🌴...
At one night, Bara just arrived at his house. He put his car in the garage. Then immediately move both legs with a shunt into the house.Â
He was not lazy to go home. But he was afraid that his wife was still awake and would invite him to a fight. He won't hear the word part from Almeera's mouth again at any moment.Â
When I was about to climb the stairs. A familiar voice from behind made him look over.Â
"Just got home, Pa?" call a teenage boy with a laptop in his hand and a glass.
"Abra!" Bara surprised. He looked around and looked back at his son. "Why not sleep?"Â
Abraham held up the laptop and the glass in his hand. "Just finished the task."Â
"Why is it once a night?"Â
"The task is many," Abra replied with her flat face.
"It's already night. You quickly go back to the room and rest, 'well!"Â
Abraham nodded. However, the teenager did not immediately move to make Bara's forehead wrinkled.
"Is there anything you want to tell Papa?" guess the Bara clearly.
"Yes." Yeah."Â
"Let's sit on the couch!"Â
The father and son walked together. They sat down with Abraham, who began to put his laptop on the table.Â
"Before Abra apologized" said Abraham, looking coldly at his father.
However, from his tone of voice it sounded like not a sincere apology. There is a satirical and cynical tone in it. Until somehow there is discomfort in Bara. Moreover, looking at his son's gaze, was not a proud look there. Except for the pain and disappointment.
"What do you want to say to Papa?"Â
"Can Abra hate Papa?"Â

Sometimes children pretend to be blind and deaf in front of their parents. In fact, he knows everything.
Abraham was patient, son.
