Stain Becomes the 2nd
Conditions for marriage
The atmosphere in Ms Asma's house seemed tense after Edgar suggested a way out of the problem.
Everyone's eyes were now on Emila waiting for an answer from the woman. Before answering Emila looked at her mother first. Can Emila see her mother give her all the answers.
"Well, I agree to it as long as the terms of me are approved by Mr. Arkana." Emila said firmly.
"What's that requirement?" Ask Arkana quickly.
Emila stared at Arkana's face intensely. "Before marriage we must make a letter of agreement. First, if we're separated later you won't take one of my children or both. My son is purely my right to be completely without your intervention. Second, as long as we marry you and I don't have to stay in one house until you don't have to bother coming to my house and my mother's. Third, let me live freely with my mother and do not set me up. If you want to give a living to this child I will accept and use it well. For other conditions I will give you before we get married." Emila said at length.
"I don't agree!" Arkana showed her rejection. "What kind of household would I live with you if we didn't live in? Just want to make sure that my kids grow up healthy in your womb!" Press Arkana.
"If you disagree you can cancel your intention to marry me. You should know, honorable Mr. Arkana. Married or not married me to you the end I will still be reviled because I am a dirty woman and the second woman of you. Not married I was reviled because there was this child and if married I was getting chided because it was called the snatch man's husband." Emila pressed her words against Arkana.
Arkana was made to flinch listening to Emila's words. The woman really gave a difficult answer for him to deny.
"The advantage of us not living at home is to minimize the possibility that among us will put feelings later. Whether it's me to you or vice versa. That advantage is very useful when we part later because none of us feel hard to part." Emila.
"I leave everything to you. Married or not married my life will remain the same." Then Emila.
"Don't you lose the fate of our next child if he's bullied by his friends for not having a father who lives with him."
"No. Since they were little I would educate them to have a strong mentality and be able to fight anyone who bullies them. My son will be a strong boy later so you don't have to worry about them."
Glug
Arkana could only swallow listening to Emila's words. She thought Emila was a weak woman like any other woman. But her thinking was wrong because the woman was strong enough to even dare to give her terms without rejection.
Inevitably that day Arkana agreed to the terms Emila gave her to be able to marry him. There was not the slightest bit of hope about her son that Arkana brought home from Ms. Asma's house.
"I'm only responsible to my children without being able to have them." Arkana complains after being in the car.
