The Loss of Love of My Husband

The Loss of Love of My Husband
The Present of the Former


Waalaikumsal. Yes, sorry who is this with?” ask Mama Ratih.


“This is ka-you?” ask Mama Ratih while trying to remember her voice over the phone. She did not expect, a woman in her son's past. Who could leave his son and make the child feel frustrated, today contact his home. Even Mama Ratih could no longer continue her words.


“Iya Ma, I'm Viona. Rey's ex-lover,” said Viona confidently, without feeling the slightest shame for having left Rey to marry another man.


Either that makes him happy or not. Mama Ratih has always disliked her daughter-in-law, maybe this is a chance for her to separate her son from Annisa. Reynaldi and Annisa have one child.


“You what else are you looking for my son? Not satisfied you hurt my son? In fact, Reynaldi almost went crazy when you left,” said Mama Ratih. Of course it makes Viona feel happy, her love for Reynaldi is indeed very big on Viona. Even getting up is hard. Annisa is a woman who can help him to rise from the slump.


Viona said she had realized her mistake. No man but Reynaldi would follow all his wishes. Reynaldi was also always patient in dealing with his selfish nature. He decided to go back with Reynaldi. After 6 years of marriage, Viona finally decided to divorce her ex-husband. They had no children at their wedding.


“What's the matter, Ma?” ask Reynaldi. He looks confused. Because when he stepped into the house, the mother immediately pulled him and invited him to the garden behind the house to sit chatting.


“So noon Viona phone home, she was looking for you. He wants to come back with you,” said Mama Ratih. Said the mother of course made Reynaldi gawking, not believing.


“Mama is sure that it really is Viona? Mama spoke to him only on the phone. Anyway, Viona's married Ma, there's no way she's taking me back. I'm married to Ma and already have a child. I don't want to hurt Nisa,” said Reynaldi.


“It is true that you are married, but Mama is sure that you still love her. Didn't you just obsess over him? This is the time for you to return,” Mama Ratih said. This made Reynaldi worried. Choose to pursue his past or keep his life now that has given him happiness.


“So Ma, I don't understand my feelings either. But for sure, I'm very happy with my life now. Especially with Khanza, adding happiness to our marriage,” said Reynaldi. Making the mother feel upset, always defending Annisa.


Reynaldi decided to end the conversation with her mother. He did not want his wife to see him and feel suspicious of him. Reynaldi's marriage to Annisa has been going on for 5 years, Khanza is now 4 years old. 


“Mas, just got home? Sorry, I fell asleep while sleeping Khanza,” said Nisa softly. When she woke up from her sleep, she saw her husband who had just finished bathing.


Her husband's indifferent attitude, made Annisa feel sad. All this time the husband never once acted like that to him. Even now he makes himself shed his tears. Her chest feels tight. Nisa tries to wipe away her tears, remembering that she has not offered her husband a meal.


“Mas, you don't eat first? I've cooked a special meal for you,” Nisa said while shaking her husband's body. So that the husband wakes up.


“I'm sleepy, not hungry! Don't bother me, I want to sleep,” said Reynaldi ketus. Even he was reluctant to open his eyes, and instead changed his position to turn his back on the child. Khanza was sleeping between his father and his mother.


Reynaldi awakens. At that time the new clock showed at 02.00 am WIB. He glanced at his wife who was asleep. His heart was agitated, remembering the words of his mother. Reynaldi looks pensive, memories with Viona present interfere with his mind. 


“Is it wrong for me to be double? Who am I really in love with? When did I still love Viona? Then, what has Nisa been doing all this time in my life? All this time I've been comfortable with him, he's made me happy. Although until now Mama has never approved of our relationship, even the presence of Khanza was unable to change her decision.” Reynaldi had a monologue in his heart.


Satan breaks into the recesses of Reynaldi's heart, tempting him to contact Viona. He should have realized that what he did was a big mistake. He now has a new life with his daughter Annisa and Khanza.


“Ma, I was wrong until I contacted Viona then we met?” reynaldi asked his mother. His face looks confused.


“Of course not dong, darling. You are just a fool. Although at first Viona was married to another man, but in the end she divorced and she realized that the one she loved was you. Same with you, if you finally come back with him. Meaning Annisa is not a good match for you, your heart is made to worry and maybe your current feelings for Viona are still the same. Let's just say Annisa is just a distraction, not a match for you!" mama Ratih. Reynaldi was seen listening and trying to think about the words of the mother.


“But Ma, Reynaldi could not bear to hurt Nisa. It was Reynaldi who made him open his heart to Reynaldi. Reynaldi will also scratch the wound in his heart,”, said Reynaldi. 


“Reynaldi admitted, Reynaldi's feelings for Viona are still there. However, Reynaldi could not have hurt Nisa. The mother of Rey's child,” said Reynaldi made a smile on the corner of Mama Ratih's lips. It seems like the plan to separate the child from his unwanted son-in-law will work.


“You can keep your relationship with Viona a secret! Otherwise, just have Nisa accept her honey. It doesn't matter if you have two wives at once, if Nisa doesn't want to part with you. Nisa must not be selfish, if she loves you yes just accept your decision to get married,” woo Mama Ratih.


It doesn't feel good if he does this. To the woman who has always carried out her duties as a wife well, giving offspring for her, and showing feelings of love and unfortunately.
