The Heart You Injured
Chapter 92. I'm Ready

Dinda stood behind the window staring fixedly at the droppings of dew lying spoiled on the leaves. The woman's eyes still look so swollen and soft as if confirming that last night the woman dissolved in her tears and did not rest her body properly. As powerful as he tried to muffle his tears but it turned out to be in vain because the clear grains were still so swift flowing.

"Din, are you sure you're ready to see your husband today? If indeed you are not ready, you can undo your intention is Din."

Surti asked as he walked closer to Dinda. The woman stood behind the window beside Dinda. His eyes are also not separated from the beauty that is out there. Although there are only rows of rice plants that have yellowed.

Dinda took a deep breath. His chest cavity seemed to lack oxygen so that it made him so tight. But no matter how hard he has to stay strong to live it.

"You today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or or another month will never change reality right? The fact that Bayu has betrayed our marriage by marrying another series of women."

"But Simbok is really worried if you are not strong to face this reality Din. Simbok is only worried if this is going to damage your mentality."

Dinda's eyes looked so bright out there. He stretched out his fingers to wipe away the tears that seemed not to stop flowing.

"Since being left behind by my father and mother, I've been used to strengthening myself. I'm used to dealing with the pettiness of living alone. It turns out that this was the point that was tucked away when God took my parents first. It turns out that God forged my heart to face the test of a much greater life."

Chief Dinda's down. He cupped both his palms on his face. The woman was crying there.

"They should still be here Mbok, to give me strength. And it should be that Bayu and his mother can be the replacement figure for my parents who have left. But the truth is they did this to me. What's my fault, Mbok, what?"

Surti was slightly stunned to hear Dinda's growing cries. Without a second thought, he grabbed Dinda's arm and carried her into his arms.

"You can expose everything to Simbok Din. You can think of this Simbok as your parents. And never you're a damsel alone."

Dinda was getting late in her grief. Instantly her memory is fixed on the times where she is still dating Bayu. Apparently three years of courtship and almost a year of married life with Bayu can not be a guarantee that the relationship will be forever, like the dreams he had.

The person he loved the most turned out to be the one who pierced the wound in his heart. And the trust that he had made as a key in a relationship turned out to be Bayu's weapon to kill him slowly.

"Thank you very much, Mbok. I don't know what else to do if I never met and knew Mbok Surti."

Surti was still patiently and tenderly rubbing the back of this woman. "Propay for Din. This is all sure to pass soon and you will soon see a rainbow after this storm."

"Hopefully there is a rainbow after this, Mbok."

"Lantas, what steps will you take after this? Will you still maintain your household with Bayu sincerely combined. Or did you choose to..."

Dinda unraveled her slight embrace from Surti's body. He looked back out the window where the sun was beginning to show his face. Accompanied by golden rays visible in the eastern horizon.

"No woman is willing to be in honey, Mbok. Moreover, it is not possible for a man to hold two different hearts. There will be one who gets hurt. And I can't take it all."

"So you mean, you will..."

Dinda nodded her head steadily. "I'm going to meet Bayu mas to finish this all Mbok."

Surti took a long breath. He rubbed Dinda's arms to strengthen her. As a fellow woman, she could feel what a piece of flesh that lived in Dinda's body was like. And what makes Surti so compassionate, women as good and sincere as Dinda actually united with the wrong person. But back again, everything that happens in humans is in accordance with the measure.

A white car enters the courtyard of Surti's house. The car stopped and soon came out the figure of a woman who still looks so elegant even though she is no longer young. It has even entered the age of twilight. Surti and Dinda's gaze focused on the woman.

Not long after, the sound of the door being knocked from the front. Dinda and Surti rush to open the door for Kartina.

"Cartina!" surti greeted his friend.

Kartina commented a little smile. Although the woman's eyes also looked so puffy. It seems that the woman last night also dissolved in her sadness to find the fact that the daughter-in-law was still tied to a wedding rope with a woman.

"I came here to fulfill my promise. Promise to deliver Dinda to Bayu." Kartina stared fixedly at Netra Dinda. "Are you ready to meet Bayu today, son?"

Without hesitation, Dinda nodded her head. "Yes, Mom, I'm ready. Faster would certainly be better so that the situation like this does not drag on."

Kartina breathed deeply. He grabbed Dinda's palm and then held it tightly. "Whatever it is, I will support all the paths and steps you take, son. May there be many wisdom and life lessons from what you are going through."

"Aamiin Ma'am. Thank you." Thank you."

In the end, the three women walked together to a car that was parked in the front yard. They take their own positions. Slowly the car moved away from Surti's residence.
