TANIA'S SUFFERING
PART 42

Tania had just finished the Maghrib prayer, still using her mukena, she sat on the edge of the bed, taking a picture of her wedding with Aldi attached to her bedroom table. With his tears back, he looked at the photo.

"This is the end of our love story, q never thought that mas Al would do this to Tania," said Tania Lirih, hugging the photo, with her tears that continued to lainang.

Shortly after, Aldi returned home. After a day here and there looking for Tania. Aldi who was worried about Tania's situation immediately met Tania in the room. Seeing Aldi coming, Tania hurriedly put back her wedding photo on the table and tried to look strong in front of Aldi.

Aldi entered the room with slow steps, seeing Tania crying, Aldi immediately rested in front of Tania.

"I'm sorry dear.me.." Aldi hasn't finished talking, Tania cut him off right away.

"Punish me mas," Tania said firmly.

"Divorce? no, baby, no, it's never gonna happen. I won't divorce you anytime. I love you so much Tania, I'll never be able to do that,"

"Enough mas! love mas Al said? doing the relationship behind me with another woman, that's what Mas Al said love, and why should Meri mas, why! wrong Tania what mas, until mas Al could do this all on Tania. Answer me, what's wrong with Tania?" Tania was crying sobbing. I felt a great pain in his heart.

Aldi shifted his seat by leaning his head on the edge of the bed and straightening his legs on the floor. And start talking.

"Don't know baby, that feeling suddenly just popped up. I really can't avoid it. I love you so much, but I also can't let go of Meri, moreover she is now pregnant,"

"Mas Al cares so much about Meri, but what about how I feel, mas Al does not care about my feelings at all. I'm so hurt, you know that,"

"Dear, I understand how you feel. But you know, baby, I really crave a kid, so I can't let go of Meri,"

"You're right, I can't bring happiness to Al. But it's not just Mas Al who wants a child, I'm the same mas, I also want to know what it's like to hold a baby, cuddle a baby, breastfeed, feed, everything. I'm the same mas, I also want to feel it all.." Tania's tears are getting louder. He cried sobbing while covering his face with both hands.

Tania let go of Aldi's embrace, she fell silent. He remembered the advice given by Mr. Mulya. If a man is allowed to remarry, as long as he can be fair to each of his wives.

"Give me some time, I don't know how to handle this. I love you both too much. But this was also very painful," Tania's tears came back.

"I'm sorry again, baby. I don't know why I can do this."

Both of them were silent, suddenly the sound of bi Surti knocking on the door and calling Aldi.

"Tok.tok.den Al!"

Aldi opened the door.

"What's bi?"

"That's it, Miss Rima called. she said she wanted to say the same with Al,"

"Yes bi, I'll call you back later,"

Aldi went back into the room. He approached Tania and caressed her.

"Darling, I want to call mom first. There might be something important to talk about."

Tania did not reply, she simply nodded. Then Aldi stepped out leaving Tania.
