Substitute Husband (Married To Prospective Sister-in-law)
Trying to accept.

This morning Gita went to the hospital with Akila and Hantara. After taking Akila to school then Hantara drove Gita to the hospital where she worked.

"If I ask you something are you going to answer it?" asked Hantara when it was just the two of them in the car.

"What do you want to ask??" asked Gita in a flat tone. Gita deliberately returned to maintain an attitude and heart towards Hantara, considering that the man had not been able to fully accept their marriage, as evidenced by the man's attitude towards her. however much the Gita opens the heart if only he does and Hantara does not, then all will end in vain. at least that's what was on Gita's mind after the last month trying to open her heart to Hantara but not also fruitful.even the man deliberately asked her to sleep in a different room during this time.

"Who is the father of your daughter??" asked Hantara with a flat face.

Seeing that Gita had no intention of answering the question from him made Hantara sound again.

"Well if it's your decision I won't force you to answer my questions, but one thing you should know however the child is that your daughter is your responsibility as a mother to take care of and care for her to adulthood. I don't want you to be like Akila's real mother who could ignore her own biological daughter." Hantara was silent for a moment when Realizing Gita's gaze was now focused on her. "and as a husband I must also accept your daughter's presence just as you accept Akila's presence." continued Hantara still in a flat tone.

"If you don't mind I want you to invite your daughter to stay with us" Hantara said, turning to Gita until the two met for a while.

"Thank you for accepting my daughter's presence, but don't bother to ask her to stay together, anyway I can see her once in a while" replied Gita felt condescending to accept Hantara's offer.

Hantara turned towards Gita, whose gaze was now focused forward.

"Alright if it has been your decision, but I hope once a week we visit it" said Hantara.

"Yes..me and also you even in the future we can invite Akila to visit him, but I ask for now to keep your daughter's presence secret first from mama and papa" replied Hantara. Gita nodded in response. Gita doesn't mind if Hantara asks her to keep it a secret from her father and mother-in-law. Hantara is willing to accept the presence of Assyifa alone has made the Heart of Gita relieved.

After that, the two no longer engaged in chat until the car driven by Hantara arrived at the apartment.

In the evening, Hantara who was sitting on the sofa in her study room again remembered that night. Where Hnatara who had just taken a bath and changed clothes arrived Armada contacted him. His assistant said if there was someone who wanted to meet him at a cafe, Hantara initially refused. but a few moments later Hantara agreed when he heard that someone who wanted to meet him was a friend of his late sister, Lesmana, a man who has the same profession as Lesmana.

In between Hantara's chat with the friend of his late sister, suddenly the man mentioned a name of a little girl, so that made Hantara curious then asked more deeply.

What makes Hantara was filled with only hearing the man's words that said if Lesmana often told the figure of the little girl named Asyifa to him and more surprisingly Lesmana even considered the girl like a child from there Hantara thought maybe he should open his heart to accept the presence of Asyifa who is none other than the daughter of his wife.

From that moment on, Hantara took the time to take Gita to visit Asyifa. somehow Hantara felt his heart warm every time he met the three-year-old girl. even the feeling that Hantara felt when she saw the little girl was the same as when she was with her biological daughter Akila.

Being able to accept the presence of Asyifa does not mean being able to fully accept her marriage to the Gita, if that is the attitude Hantara shows at this time, the proof is up to three months of marriage age Hantara has never asked for his rights as a husband.
