Dhiwa glanced at her phone, Mira's name appeared on her screen, Dhiwa smiled then immediately raised her.
"Dear Assalamu'alaikum" said Dhiwa.
"Wa'alaikumussalam, where is it? " asked Mira, Dhiwa frowned as she was astonished by the question of her second wife.
"In Kodim dear, what's up? Like you're a little panicked"
"Gapapa mas, just don't know why I've been feeling restless" said Mira.
Dhiwa smiled, wanting him to go home and hug his wife tightly.
"It's okay, baby, this meeting was just finished, maybe just your feelings, not a lot of thoughts yes later you stress can affect your womb".
Mira breathed a sigh of relief because her husband was fine, maybe true said Dhiwa it was just a feeling he was because the carrier of the growing gestational age so make it easy overthinking.
"I'm sorry, I'm just afraid why napa, I'm so afraid of losing mas" Mira's voice sounded heavy.
"Mas isn't going anywhere, baby, don't worry. Wait for the mas to come home yes" persuaded Dhiwa, Mira smiled while stroking her bulging stomach.
The phone was cut off, Dhiwa felt something stuck in his heart, according to him the feeling of a wife was never wrong.
"Why now I am overthinking, may all be well, protect us, God" he murmured while pensive.

Mira came to Bu Khadijah's house, he had not come to the house for a long time. There are also Ridwan and Mutia.
Mutia is also pregnant like Mira, only 1 month apart.
When all was gathered suddenly his late father's sister Mira came to visit to meet with Bu Khadijah, he was named Bu Meris.
Ms. Meris looked in wonder at Mira, because she did not know that Mira was married, but she felt astonished why Mira's stomach was bulging like she was pregnant.
"Sorry if I asked. That's Mira's son, why is his stomach bloated, huh? Is she pregnant? " tanya was curious.
"True Deck, Mira is indeed pregnant" replied Bu Khadijah.
"Astaghfiullah! Isn't Mira not married yet, Teh? " Mrs Meris was very surprised.
Mira and the others fell silent, Mira lowered her head holding back the sadness and resentment.
"Ohh like that, I think son Mira pregnant out of wedlock, it is impossible that son Mira is a sholeh and obedient child, he said, also from a good family like our family yes tea so where might he embarrass our family" he said.
Mira clenched her hands feeling hot, indeed Ms. Meris is a person who is a slippery. He is less liked by his family because he likes to make trouble.
"Well, by the way, what does your husband do for Mira? " ask her again.
"Aunty's Army" replied Mira.
"How come the wedding soldiers are just a kobul kojah anyway, not as old as aunty if married to soldiers using a machete sword event huh? You're not a mistress, are you, Mira? " scoffs.
"Enough aunt Meris, stop mocking Mira. Besides, why if Mira married only a kobul hijab is important, the marriage is legitimate and they do not commit adultery, why did aunt meddle with our family affairs? " snaps Ridwan, from earlier he held back his annoyance. But the more in silence, Bu Meris more and more.
"How come you're angry Wan? Aunty just asked, if there is no problem yes no need to yell like that. In fact, making aunt increasingly suspicious loh" he sneered while glancing at Mira.
Mira could not stand it, she stood up and walked over to Bu Meris.
"Auntie earlier Mira apologized, but than aunty take care of Mira's life better aunty take care of aunty's daughter who became a night butterfly in bandung, but, Mah Mira said she was afraid that Dhiwa would come home and Mira had not cooked for dinner. Aa and teteh, Mira said yes first. Assalamu'alaikum" Mira looked at Bu Meris sharply then she immediately left her mother's house.
Bu Meris widened her eyes, she felt clumsy as Mira insinuated her daughter Lina, Bu Khadijah looked at Bu Meris with a probing look.
"Is it true Deck that Lina's a butterfly... "
"Ahh no need, Mira just make it up" Ms. Meris cut off Bu Khadija's question, Bu Khadija can see the lie in Bu Meris' eyes as well from her attitude that turned nervous.
"Sir, it is not good to insult others if we ourselves also have something that may be worse than him, self-introspection before denouncing the shortcomings of others. Because if your own shortcomings are smelled maybe you will be more embarrassed" Ms. Khadijah advised Ms. Meris.
Ridwan was really furious, he was eager to curse at his aunt but Mutia gestured through her eyes asking Ridwan to hold back.
Ms. Meris smiled awkwardly, she did not expect Mira to strike back and she felt check-in by Mira.
Mira cried while driving, still ringing Bu Meris speech that so pierced her heart.
"Am I wrong to be a second wife? Why why anyway? I never wanted this position either but it's all happened" she cried.
Mira pulled over her car, she cried lamenting the life she lived, it was not easy and also heavy. Mira regrets her past actions but she can do nothing but surrender and sincerity.
"Mas Dhiwa. "the lyrics while squeezing the steering wheel of the car, his heart aches and pains, any woman will never want to be made honey and also mockery. Ms. Meris has indeed been very outrageous, she makes Mira stressed and sad.
Mira pushed back her car to the house, she wiped her tears trying to toughen up, she did not want to drag on in sadness. He must be strong for the sake of the child in his womb, he does not want the insinuations and insults of others to melt his love for Dhiwa.
