The Second Woman's Regret

The Second Woman's Regret
Happiness for a moment


I am finally married. She is the wife of Andre Winata. The first foreign man I loved and loved me too. It was he who made me believe that love was nothing but the love of my mother and sisters.


I walked confidently to welcome his hand. We smiled at each other, he even looked at me with teary eyes. When we face.


"Thank you, thank you for making me your wife." I said, in a stammered voice, restraining haru.


"Thank you Ra, you want to be Brother's wife. Really lucky brother, Ra." Said.


I kissed with solemnity the back of his hand after he handed over the dowry which then the gold dowry was taken over Abah, then changed hands to Aunt Utami. Although it's very disturbing, but I don't care. For now, let me ignore Abah and his wife. I don't want this happiness to be ruined by their attitude.


Bang Andre took my forehead, rubbing it solemnly. Not stopping his lips to express his happiness about this marriage.


Finished, we caught up with the guests who came. Although only attended by close family and right-left neighbors, but the mother has prepared as many treats as possible. I want to give my best to my first daughter. Mother said, after marriage, usually the daughter will be taken by her husband, this is the last time parents entertain their children before being taken over by her husband.


We both felt like we could not be separated. Everywhere the two, hand in hand. Even the guests present also enjoyed the meal. I wish this hand was forever.


"Cell, find the husband like her husband Tira. Have a clear future. Don't just. Not to worry about the parents either!" Strictly Abah as we passed in front of them.


Despite hearing clearly, I tried to pretend not to know, but with the tip of my eyes I could see the look on Gisel's face changed dislikes.


After greeting guests and meeting with Abah's extended family and the mother present, me and bang Andre ate Betawi soto. Mother is one of my favorite dishes, so mother deliberately prepared the menu at this event.


While enjoying the food, suddenly a boisterous sound came from outside, followed by a hysterical cry. Me and bang Andre glanced outside following the people who came out one by one to see the source of the commotion.


A young mother was crying hysterically in the company of three other people. One held the camera, the other held a hysterical young mother while the other cursed violently.


"Your hearts, seize your brother's husband and celebrate with joy. Absolutely shameless, you think you can survive the afterlife. Nah! Everyone present here will be sued in the hereafter!" the oldest word.


"Mom-mother, calm down first. Can you tell me what really happened?" mr. RT as the poured forward to dampen this commotion.


"You have facilitated the marriage of our sister's husband!" Said.


"How do you mean?" ask one of my mother's brothers.


"That's ... Andre Winata is the legal husband of our sister!" He pointed at Andre.

Bang Andre husband of people. What the fuck? I immediately limp. Remember what happened when I was a kid, when I was pregnant with Kiki. With teary eyes my mother took me with Ciya and Elis to a place where there was a wedding.


Yes, Abah who is saying it. Kabul, make a sacred promise with Aunt Utami. They were married when my mother was Abah's legal wife. Our hearts were broken, the mother tried her hardest to tell us who she was and how Abah was, but everyone who was there seemed to close their eyes, they ignored her, even took refuge with the confession of Abah who said he was in the process of divorcing from his mother.


Not to get sympathy and defended, but the mother was turned back. Valued as an incompetent wife until the husband turned away.


I who at that time had begun to understand a little can only invite mother away so that there are no more new wounds. Do not forget before leaving the place I cursed abah and of course replied with a swearing by Abah.


"Basar the son of the ungodly.begini yes your mother taught you all this time. Let me, hopefully later you will also fumigate like Abah. Falling in love with someone else who already has a partner so you know the name of the marriage if his wife is not becus it is worth replacing!" That vow made mom hysterical, while I didn't care at all.


God, I never knew what it was to be happy. I always have my day in solitude. I felt like my life was perfect. I thought that sadness would never be present in my life again. But it turns out I was wrong. Happiness is temporary, only temporary. I don't think I'll ever be happy forever.


"Are you awake?" ask Kiki and Elis, who accompanied me in the room. "Well, isn't that okay?" tanyakanya.


How come I'm okay while I just got married to a man who's still the status of a man's husband. Yeah, that means I'm the second woman. Innalady. I do grieve my own fate. Why should I live such a fate. There were so many men who came to me at the time, offering to be close friends until marriage, but why did you end up having to marry someone's husband? My fate is really bad.


"Let'soooooo!" I screamed hysterically, unable to feel like I was going through this. I used to hate the second woman because I destroyed my mother and brother's household, but why am I the second woman? Oh Allah ....


Bang Andre is also why you have to me. I don't know what was wrong until he cheated me. I really feel like my world is destroyed. I have no hope of life anymore. In this despair I wish I could change the time or it's just a dream so that when I wake up everything will be fine.


"Sister, brother calm down first brother. No cry. Poor mother, later if sister why-napa mother also more sad." Elis.


I suddenly realized. Right, there's a mother who's somehow feeling right now. If it's Abah, I don't care. And I'm very sure he won't take this incident because Abah did the same right.


"Mom, where's mom?" I asked them both.


"Mother is in front of you, talking to ...." Elis glanced at Kiki.


I didn't need any other answers, without saying a word I got up straight ahead to see my mother
