The Charm of The Twins

The Charm of The Twins
114 Hearts Still Sick


The news that Arumi has returned has also reached the ears of Mr. Subroto and Melisa. They also visited the twin Mayang. Arriving at the Ayra residence, they were only greeted by Ayra and Bram. Ammar is still in his room.


"They just arrived sir. His feet blistered from boiling water." Ayra.


"I'm sorry about my daughter's attitude that made Mr. Bram and his family worried." Said Mr. Subroto who knew if Arumi went from home without saying if he went to Palembang.


"It's okay Mr. Subroto. It's only natural that a newly married husband and wife is like that. They still need time to get to know and understand each other. We can only pray and encourage." Bram said to his iron.


In Ammar's room he persuaded his wife.


"Why Ar? Mr. Subroto is your Papa, right?" Ask Ammar when Arumi does not want to go down to see Mr. Subroto.


Arumi silent. She did not answer her husband's question. Ammar is approaching Arumi. He rubbed Arumi's long hair and he smelled the long hair.


"The same story. Why are you with your Papa?" Back Ammar persuaded his wife who looked annoyed and badmood.


Arumi rested her head on Ammar's chest. The husband's clothes that he had just changed were wet because his hair was not too dry.


"Sick Mas. Still sick remember my childhood. Mother's own struggle. While Papa used to waste me." Arumi said slowly


"Dear Arumi, Heaven has many doors that we can enter. In accordance with the practices we do during life in the world. There is the door of alms, there is the door of fasting, the door of reviving the Sunnah-Sunnah, also keeping our obligations. One of them is to devote to the elderly. Parents are heaven's best door, honey. " Said Ammar who is now in front of his wife.


Arumi's eyes look red. There is hate, resentment in a man who never existed and was present for himself.


"I know that the greatest sin besides associating God is disobedience to Old Man. But I also have the right to claim my rights all this time. I don't get my rights. All Mayang get." Said Arumi in a soft tone.


Ammar saw his wife finding it hard to breathe. He hugged his wife tightly.


"The worst of parents. He's still your parent Arumi. It is not good to break relationships with parents especially to hate. Parents are not only mothers but also fathers. We're already planning to have a child. Then what if your son gets angry or hates me because I made a mistake?" Ammar.


Arumi took a slow breath.


"I want to stay here... Please..." Arumi.


Ammar breathed slowly.


"But if Papa and Mama want to ask to see you. They will still let them come here. Ok?" Ammar. Arumi nodded slowly.


"You know Ar. One of my joys is that you want to be Sholeh for me. That's better enough." Ammar hugged his wife before leaving her alone in the room.


Arriving downstairs, he met his in-laws. Ammar said that his wife still has her leg pain. Ayra's a little weird. Usually, children will be very happy to visit parents. But Arumi was impressed to avoid Mr. Subroto.


"Mante can I see Arumi for a second?" ask Melisa.


Ammar nodded. He invited the mother-in-law to meet with Melisa. Arriving at the room, he leaves his wife with Melisa. He went back to accompany his father-in-law.


In a room that is very fragrant aromatherapy it makes Melisa see the conditions in the room of her stepson.


"If Aunt comes here to defend Mr. Subroto. Please. But I still can't forgive him."


Melisa sat down beside Arumi.


"arc. You're wrong with your Papa. He doesn't know if you're in this world. He also doesn't know if your mother is alive. You know, how your mother never put your Papa down" Melisa said.


"Aunties. I respect Aunt as my mother's friend not the man's wife." Arumi closed the book she was reading.


Melisa saw that the legs on the small pillow look red and like there is water in the skin of Arumi's feet.


"You remember everything means Ar? Including your relationship with Gede?" Ask Melisa.


Arumi nodded. Melisa asks again if she still loves Gede.


"No. Now I'm just focusing on my husband Aunty. I no longer remember the past with Gede." Arumi.


"Thank God." Melisa said that some days she was worried if Arumi still loves Gede. The man is now married to Qiya.


That afternoon Ammar accidentally spent his time with Arumi in the room. Ammar even told me a lot.


Arumi's husband reveals that being a woman is a destiny to be grateful for. Even Allah categorizes women when pregnant as equal to those who jihad in the way of Allah.


"arc. Mas don't want you to just Sholihah for mas. But also stick to your Papa." Ammar.


Arumi silent. He enjoys caressing his long hair.


"Women of prayer are gifts for men who pray, and men who are sholeh are gifts for women who pray, You are gifts for women. Metamorphosed into a Sholehah woman. If your dad doesn't love you then there's no way he looks worried when you're gone. He seems to be ordering some people to directly search for your whereabouts." Ammar.


Arumi was silent. He's still trying to forgive Mr. Subroto. But elsewhere a father was stunned when he opened a magazine and saw the profile of the Bramantyo Pradipta family listed on one page. It says 'Bramantyo Pradipta Flapping its wings to Bali'.


He saw a photo where women were often seen standing next to Ayra. The woman he didn't like first because she was a career competitor.


"Right...." Said the man. Another woman named Ratih also came to bring coffee and snacks for Mr. Rendra.


His wife was also named Ratih. That's what made when Gede's mother fought for the name for Gede. He can say because of the similarity of the name of his ex-wife and the woman he married.


"What's wrong?" Said Ratih when he heard Mr. Rendra say his name.


"No. I'm just upset. News like this is in magazines. No quality." Said Mr. Rendra.


Mr. Ratih glanced at the magazine that Mr. Rendra had thrown. He saw the Bram and Ayra families.


"You and Hilman are the same. Hilman hasn't moved on. And you're still with a race to hate you for that family. They're not guilty of anything to us." Said Mrs Ratih.


"Well... What's the relationship between Ratih and the Bram family." Said Mr. Rendra who at the wedding reception Qiya he did not come. Even the magazine that made the news of Bram's daughter's wedding was not read by Mr. Rendra.
