Tama And Ratna
87. Missing my Raguku, dear

"Mama, here used to be the same children as Ratna," said Chandra who then came out of Ratna's room with Aji.

"Are you sure you want to meet Vino?" ask Aji after closing the door.

"Gue just wants the horror of his version of Vino" Chandra said.

"Don't you believe Lilis?"

"It's not a matter of believing or not. I just want to know what he's doing with Lilis and Ratna until those two guys can be so hateful first. If I don't know how rich I can be with Lilis? There's one thing I need to get right with him" Chandra said.

Chandra and Tama meet Vino who is still accompanying his wife. He forced Vino to tell him what had happened in the past. Chandra and Tama already know everything from Ratna and Lilis to the truth, but Chandra also feels the need to know what Vino has done so that the two tough women can be so weakened.

"Actually the one who introduced me to Lilis was Ratna," Vino said truthfully.

Vino began to tell the story, "Me and Ratna met at a tennis SME. We got acquainted and our chat was connected. A year PDKT I invite him to date even though not directly. Ratna likes to read, she has a friend named Radea and asks Radea to introduce her to friends of writers including Lilis. Since Ratna and Lilis had similar views they ended up being familiar as well. At first I only knew from Ratna's story, but gradually she introduced me to Lilis."

"So, you dated Lilis without severing Ratna?" ask Chandra.

"It's not. I didn't really date Lilis at first. Up to the 5th semester, Ratna was appointed to the ranks of the core board of BEM FK with his friends who might Bang Tama already understand more. I didn't really know how they were, but honestly at the time I didn't accept that they stayed close to Ratna knowing she was already my lover. I also often caught Ratna walking alone with Jay. I was jealous, so I made a plan to test whether Ratna still loved me or not."

"Don't...,"

"Yes, that silly thing I finally did. I came to Lilis and asked her for help to be my fake lover" Vino said.

"I can't believe my wife will, '" replied Chandra confidently. He knows how his wife is.

"Fearing that he wouldn't say it, I didn't say it frankly. I just took her out for a couple of weekly nights on purpose to let Ratna know. At first Ratna was angry and asked me to stop her. I'm glad that my relationship with Ratna has finally improved, but Lilis is starting to demand more. He often asked Ratna. It was from there that Ratna and Lilis finally argued."

"Because Lilis doesn't know that you're Ratna's lover. He whom you have exalted will surely demand certainty. That's human nature. I'm sorry I can't justify you" Chandra said.

"When Ratna and I were at the tip of the horn, I saw Ratna and Bang Tama both leaving. Immediately I ended my relationship with Ratna and chose Lilis" Vino said.

"You made Lilis an impingement like that?!" chandra asked no more.

"Sorry Bang, I was wrong. My mind was deadlocked when it came to subconsciously I had already forced Lilis to get closer to me. That's when he rejected me and finally left. Because he knows that he's just being my impingement" Vino said.

"I remember his condition never got out of control at that time. Adiratna and Lilis had fought with their mouths to shake the medical faculty. I was with Ratna when it happened. Lilis and Ratna really had a fight. They're not lying Bang" Tama added, erasing Chandra's doubts, but not her emotions.

"You're crazy, aren't you? It's not enough you just give me false hope you're also trying to touch her by mentioning another woman's name? Luckily Lilis and Ratna were not vengeful. If the two women had been vengeful until now, these two officers would have come forward to protect. Because of the silly things you did in the past you almost ruined a lot of people's relationships" Chandra said.

"I know about Jay who likes Ratna. But he can still think clearly. He won't do as you've told him. He even came to me and asked me to fight for Ratna to escape from the shackles of men like you so helpless. Because he's aware that his relationship and Ratna won't be more than friends. He even sacrificed his feelings back then so that at least Ratna would not have to grieve. But you he gave him a chance to waste it instead. You even introduced Ratna to your parents. Often mention Ratna with a special name in front of your friends. It is only natural that he expects more. If it wasn't for your ridiculous behavior, I would have accepted fate but because I love Ratna I wouldn't have accepted you treating her so insolently" Tama said.

"How do you want now? I've been heartbroken to know that I wasn't the first to touch my wife. Can you give it all back? I almost failed to marry her because of your crazy behavior. Look Aji. She sincerely loves Ratna and intends to marry her, but because you have too much to scratch the wound in Ratna's heart she must do something she really doesn't need to do to be able to grasp her destiny. If Ratna refuses at that time, it means that you have prevented someone from meeting his soul mate. You should know, treating trauma wounds is not easy, even until this moment Aji and I are still struggling, struggling to finish your stupidity. You should be thinking, you planted why do we know nothing to eat? Where have you been all this time?" Chandra.

"There is nothing that can be justified from dating. Everything's wrong. Sin, you know?!" chandra.

"Bang, that's enough, '" said Tama trying to calm Chandra who was almost consumed by his emotions.

"I just want to tell this guy to let him learn from his past" Chandra said.

"Come in there you accompany your wife and take good care of her. Give him an understanding and tell him everything he really is. Don't let him misunderstand again to make Ratna and Lilis hurt. The two women are no longer yours. Lilis is already Bang Chandra's and Ratna is mine. This is the last time I'll give you forgiveness. If anything bad happens again you're the one I took his life for the first time" Tama said.

Tama and Chandra did not raise their voices since then. But they also do not lie about the emotions they feel. Chandra and Lilis meet after the taaruf, after Lilis undergoes a conversion she meets Chandra. The two were also not that smooth until they finally got married. Chandra knew of Lilis' past because the woman told her everything from the beginning. Honestly Chandra had hesitated and would have rejected Lilis back then, if not for the girl crying so hard regretting herself, Chandra would not have accepted a girl who was already unclean.

When Chandra and Tama return to Ratna's room, Chandra hugs his wife and nearly cries if she doesn't remember the children there. Tama provides privacy for both. Ratna heard Lilis start crying until she finally came crying too.

"What's wrong?"

"Bang Chandra is casting doubt on his wife. Vino told me everything including what he did to Lilis" Tama said.

"Abang, Faisal, here son," said Chandra to his two children who had just stared confusedly at his parents.

"You two have to promise Papa, you two never mess with women. Whoever it is. Same mother especially. Your mama has been too great to hide the wound, so you two should be able to be a medicine for Mama yes," said Chandra while kissing his two sons who understood and did not with what was conveyed by his father.

Lilis walked over to Ratna who was only able to look at her while sitting down. Lilis then hugged Ratna, and poured her heart out to the friend she had hurt. Lilis apologized, as well as Ratna making both of them cry while hugging.

"It's the past. Just make learning. Now you two are happy, right?" tama said cheering.

"Bener Aji said. Now you just need to focus on our future, the future of the children, too" Chandra said.

"Now you believe in me?" lily asked her husband.

"Lies when you say you never doubted. But I swear to God, if you believe in me. I believe my wife is not that kind of person. You will be loved far and far more from now on. I'm sorry, you're wrong" Chandra told his wife.

"Me too, I'm sorry to make you fight alone. If I knew it would all be so quiet that I should have retreated from the beginning, I just refused his invitation to go out and just waited for your presence Mas," Ratna said.

"Long gone dear. I don't care. You are now his. We will continue together until the end" Tama told Ratna.

Not long after, Chandra pamit. In addition to her having to return to the office, Ratna also had to take a break. Lilis also said this afternoon she had an appointment with the editor to discuss a new script that she said she had not yet gotten an idea of what it would look like.

"Papa, I'd like to ask permission."

"Why?" chandra asked without taking her eyes off the crowded streets.

"I want to put our story up in a novel. I want to capture everything I've experienced so far" he said.

"Could only. But your husband this case you should praise is higher than that. Enter your struggle to get you. Later you tell me," said Chandra.

"Love you Papa" said Lilis.

"Love you too Mama" replied Chandra.

"But you don't love you?" the elder protested from the back seat followed by his sister.

"Yes, love you also Bang Miftah same Bang Faisal," Chandra said to her two children.

"Love you too Papa," the two replied excitedly.
