Soul Pain
Chapter 12

Abi turned around and hugged his patient tightly. While giving thanks in the heart that Larisa is still given the opportunity to improve life. 

"This is the last time you say to die. After this you must be able to control yourself in order to heal." Abi said right in Larisa's ear. 

The woman nodded her head. "Don't go and leave me, yeah, brother. I'm afraid that, Brother is leaving," he pleaded. 

Abi cupped Larisa's wet cheeks. "You want to heal?"

And Larisa nodded. 

"Then go with Brother. Forget the past and start a new life. Brother will help and accompany you."

The tense atmosphere had changed back to normal and Larisa could already be persuaded by Abi. Without sedatives the girl ended up resting well in her room. 

"Tante, Om, there's something I want to talk about." Abi meets Larisa's parents in the living room. Both were shocked by the incident. 

"What's wrong?" ask Endra

"I want to get Larisa out of this town."

"Go? What to do and where?" Davira looked confused as well. 

"Balinese. I will take Larisa to live her new life there. Stay away from the things that trigger his depression symptoms, also to forget the things that make him depressed. What's more the atmosphere in Bali is also good for Larisa's mental health."

"Who will Larisa live with? We can't move there?" ask Endra

"Larisa will stay with me."

"Abi, I don't think that's possible. You're not-"

"Aren't you the right partner, Auntie?" Abi immediately cut Davira's words. "Before moving, I will marry Larisa religiously."

Endra and Davira looked at each other. "What do you mean?" The tone of voice from Larisa's father was slightly raised. Abi just wants to play with his son's life.

"Om, listen to my explanation first! I married Larisa because I love her. I want to make her happy. But before he recovers, this marriage is not to be known. I will also not demand my rights and her obligations as a wife."

Endra and Davira are again surprised by Abi's words. They still do not believe if the man in front of him wants to marry the princess who is experiencing mental disorders. 

"I know, Om and Aunt doubt my feelings and seriousness. But please give me a chance and time to prove it."

"Abi, marriage is not something you can decide in a short time. Because this concerns the future of you and Larisa. What worries us is your future. Are you sure you married our daughter? There is no guarantee that Larisa can be a good wife to make you happy" said Davira

"I'm very sure, Auntie. Because I married Larisa to make her well and happy living with me. Not to seek my happiness."

Back Endra and Davira throw each other a glance. 

"Abi, we will certainly be very happy and grateful because you want to accept our daughter in her current condition. But marriage is not about you two. However, family. Will your mother agree and approve of this marriage? Before we refuse, we have to be self-conscious because our daughter doesn't deserve to be with you" Endra added. 

"I'll talk about this with my mom. Whether he agrees or not, the marriage will be done."

Endra breathed a long breath. "If that is your decision. We will support, later we will also try to talk to your parents."

"You want to marry him in his circumstances, we're very happy. For a legal marriage it is better to wait for Larisa to recover and ask her opinion about your marriage. Or if later you want to divorce her we accept."

“I will never divorce Larisa unless she asks for it herself.”

"So, this marriage are we going to hide from Larisa?" ask Davira

"It's best, Auntie. Until the right time I'll explain to her."

"Tante leave everything to you, Abi. If this is the best thing for our daughter. Prayer and hope will always accompany your steps there." Davira said with a drop of tears.

“What? Marry Larisa?” Ningsih as if struck by lightning in broad daylight while listening to the words of the son. “Don't be crazy, Bi! Wedding it's not a toy.”

“Who said the wedding was a toy. I'm serious, Ma, I'll marry Larisa.”

Ningsih shook her head and walked over to Abi who was sitting on the sofa of her study. “You were not persuaded by Larisa's parents, right?”

“Mama, what the hell? Yes, it is not! It's my own will.”

“But why Larisa, Bi? Is there no other woman? Many more women than him out there.”

“What's up with Larisa, Ma?” Abi's voice began to rise

“You know for yourself right, his soul is being shaken. Mama is not sure she can live the household well, she will also not be able to be a good wife for you.”

“I married her not to build a household that fit the shadow, Mama. But I married her because I wanted to make her heal. She is hurt by love then I will heal her with love,” press Abi.

Ningsih exhaled a rough breath. “Since when did you love her?”

“I don't know for sure, which is clear I can't see him suffering every day especially when looking at his eyes. She really needs sincere love.”

“Sorry, Bi, Mama disagree.”

“Why? Is it because he's crazy? As a mental doctor, Mama, should understand Larisa's condition. He is not much different from the condition of Mina first, Ma.”

“Mama knows and Mama understands. Yes, Larisa reminds us of Mina. If you think of him as your own sister, Mama can still accept that. But if you want to marry her and make her a wife, Mama can't take it. How will your descendants be? You know yourself, Bi mental illness it can be lowered.” 

Abi raised both his hands into the air. “Ma, that's not a good reason to reject Larisa. Mama, do not realize what, because of this thing Mina chose suicide because she was rejected by her prospective in-laws because she had been depressed. Should, Mama, not do that to someone else's daughter. In this case, it means Mama is the same as the former Mina-in-law who rejected her first.”
