The End of Two Semesters
Chapter 46 - Will Not Be Replaced

Hermawan will not just let go of Halima. Hermawan tried to meet Herdidak at his house, but Halimah did not want to meet him, arguing that she was embarrassed to meet her husband face to face because he had betrayed her.

“I let him go for you, as long as I can see him again, before it's over,” Hermawan told Herdika.

“Indeed it should let go of Halimah. This is also because the mas is too cool with new business mas, to forget his lonely wife,” said Herdika. “I will marry her, later after mas divorced her,”.

“I was wrong, but as a woman she should be able to take care of herself, she should be able to keep her honor as a wife, not even drop her pride!” cetus Hermawan's. “I will not live with a woman who has no self-esteem, a dirty woman like her!”

“Good if mas will release it,” said Herdika.

“Let me meet Halimah for a while,” pinta Hermawan, and after that, I will not interfere with his life again,” he concluded.

Halima who heard the conversation between the sister and brother, finally came out. Actually Halimah still loves Hermawan very much, she really khilaf do all that with her sister-in-law. What a shame, she could not keep her husband's good name, could not keep her honor as a wife, she risked her pride just because of momentary satisfaction.

“When you can enter for a while I want to talk to Mas Hermawan,” said Halimah by walking closer to them.

“Iya, please talk,” replied Herdika.

Herdika went inside, let them talk a second. Herdika knows they still love each other, but however the child in the womb Halimah is her child, because for two years Halimah never felt the touch of Hermawan, because for two years Halimah never felt the touch of Hermawan, and he needed it, finally there was a dark relationship with Halimah to fruition.

“Your contact is visible, Lim?” ask Hermawan. “How old is he?”

“Already in eight months, Mas,” he replied.

Two months Halimah left the house, it means that when Halimah told her that she was pregnant, her pregnancy had entered the sixth month.

“You have the heart, Lim,” sigh Hermawan.

“I'm sorry, Mas,” he said softly.

“You are confident in your decision to end it all with me?” ask Hermawan again.

“What am I holding on for, Mas? I am pregnant with a child, I have betrayed our marriage, I am ashamed mas,” he said in tears.

“If that's what you want, what can I do. I'm sorry, honestly I don't know what to do, you're wrong, but you're my wife, and I'm involved in this, because it's my fault too.”

“Not, Mas, not your fault. It's my fault.”

Hermawan let Santi go, he said he would take care of the divorce. After one week, Hermawan will take care of his divorce with Santi, but he is still not willing to let go of Santi.

As he was leaving, he received a call that his sister had been in a traffic accident, and that was with Halimah. Hermawan immediately rushed to the hospital that was told by the police, he drove a high speed to get to the hospital quickly.

He arrived at the hospital lobby. Hermawan immediately asked the victims of consecutive accidents on behalf of Halimah and Herdika.

“The victim is in the ICU, which the woman is in surgery, because her pregnancy is bleeding, and the baby must be born soon even though it is not yet time, while the victim is male, she is critical.” That's the information Hermawan heard.

“I am the sister of the victim named Herdika, and the husband of Halimah, Sus. Can I see him?”

“Can, please pack.”

Hermawan went into the ICU room, he saw his sister's body filled with life support tools. Hermawan sits next to the safe of Herdika. He held the hand of his only brother.

“You're getting married, you're strong, brother. Your son is soon to be born, Dik.” Hermawan sobbed to see his brother who was stretched weak.

Hermawan came out of the ICU, because he got word from the nurse that the Halimah operation was smooth, and the baby was a girl. Hermawan met Halimah who had been transferred to the treatment room, but the baby still had to be monitored by a doctor because the birth was not old enough.

Hermawan accompanied Halimah, until Halimah regained consciousness. “A—aku where?” his moans. “MyBuddy .... Dika ...”

“Mas, How was it? My son too?” ask Halimah.

“Your daughter, she is still under the doctor's observation, due to being born prematurely. Herdika in the ICU room, she is critical, her critical period has passed, but she has not been conscious,” replied Hermawan.

Halima was just crying, she didn't know it would be like this. If only he had stepped back from time to meet clients outside the city, it probably wouldn't have been like this.

“Sorry, Sir. Father's sister is conscious,” call a nurse.

“When you're awake, I go there first, yes?” pamit Hermawan's.

“I'm coming, Mas,” pinta Halimah.

“You are still like this, you are new siuaman, new operation do not move much first.”

“I want to meet Dika,” the door. “Sus I beg you, I want to meet my sister-in-law,” her door.

“But mom just had an operation, just woke up.”

“Sus, I beg.”

Finally Halimah came to the ICU room using her safe. How else, Halimah forced the sisters also doctors, finally they allowed.

Halima could not bear to see Herdika who lay weak. The man who had made himself drunk on the beauty of his body, now Herdika lay weakly on a gurney in the ICU.

“Dika ..”.

“Halimah .. forgive me.”

“Dik, you must be strong. Our son is born, woman.” Speak Halimah with a sob.

“Surely she is beautiful like you, she must be smart too, “ Herdika said.

“Cured yes, Dik?”

Herdika did not answer him, he just smiled, then clasped Hermawan's hand. “I'm sorry, Mas,” he said. “I picked up my son. You guys don't break up, take care of my son, I leave him and Halimah.”

“You don't talk like that, Sister. You can't be like that. You must be strong. I will give in for your happiness, you must recover!” pekik Hermawan's.

“No, Mas. I took Halimah, and my son. Name him Asyanti. Asyanti Hermawan's. Consider him your son. Love him, I beg you to love him with all your heart, Mas. Love Halimah, I'm sorry, Mas.” he said stammered.

“Dik, don't talk like that,” said Halimah.

“Halimah, forgive me. Come back with Hermawan, take care of our child with Hermawan.”

Slowly Herdika closed her eyes, and exhaled her last breath calmly. Halimah was crying, roaring, for the loss. Hermawan hugged the chaotic area of Halima. Since then, they have been living together. Hermawan loves Santi very much.

Santi was able to be taken home after two weeks in the hospital, because his condition was still weak. Hermawan held Santi, he kissed her cheek. “You papa boy. From today we will stay together, you will be safe with papa.”

Hermawan takes care of Santi with love and affection. As if that way, he wanted to make up for all the mistakes that happened in the past. Burying all the disgrace that once marred her. Hermawan loves Santi like his own jewel. Just as he and Halimah learned to improve their domestic lives.

“Please promise me, Halimah,” pinta Hermawan poignant. “Don't ever try again to replace me myself in your life. Never give your heart to another man again.”

Halima swore she would never betray Hermawan again. He had a great husband. The sincerity and loyalty of Hermawan as a companion of life has been tested. Hermawan would sacrifice anything to preserve the integrity and honor of his marriage. No, the Hermawan cannot be replaced by any man in the world. It never will.
