The Shackles of Love are Lying
That's All Over

Arya leaves Sheza for the veranda. Sitting on the rattan chair was a he. only accompanied by a cup of warm coffee made by the mbok.

Now Arya is aware, the decision Najib took was a result of the pressure he put on her last night. He breathed his breath.

There was regret in his heart. Why can't he be patient for a moment, to give Najib some thought. At least after Aina gave birth to discuss it.

If at that time he was not selfish, of course their separation would not happen. After all, all the problems started from her daughter who could not accept and understand her and Najib as her husband.

Maybe Najib's fault was only one, remarrying behind their back when the household was not okay. Besides that it seems understandable. Although Najib has Aina, he tries to be fair, even arguably his friendship with Sheza is more than that of Aina.

He regretted not finding a solution to this problem, instead adding a new problem that was very heavy for both. He insisted on severing their ties immediately. It was stupid for his actions.

He remembered Najib's sacrifice all along. He seems sincere to protect and look after Sheza and Iza. Whether or not there is himself. ‘Senakal’ whatever his daughter, Najib can still forgive and give a chance.

Farewell was painful, especially for her daughter. Now there was no more joy on the faces of his daughter and Iza.

Iza's birthday celebration was not as lively as planned. Although he came, but with a fondness, there was no joy and happiness on his face.

Najib can cover his wounds with calmness and always laugh during the event. But still can not eliminate the impression that the relationship he and Sheza is not okay.

He smiles when dealing with Iza or greeting guests. More silence until the show ends.

Sometimes he looks a little awkward when it comes to standing with Sheza. But inevitably, he was charged so that Iza did not get the effect of their decision. He immediately said goodbye after a moment of delivering Iza to sleep.

Involved thinking can be clear-minded to see this problem, with a little understanding to Sheza to open her heart a little, accept honey may be better. They won't be this sad. Because it's better. Aina can take Iza and Sheza well. But never mind, what happened might have happened as a middle ground to reflect on the lesson ahead.

He'll try to fix it by taking them to Najib. Although later they can no longer be together, at least Iza can release his sense of kangen and not lose the figure of the father who had always accompanied him.

After he finished one cup of coffee, he went into the house to rest his body and mind in the embrace of a dream.

Najib and Aina

Every third of the night, Aina often saw Najib shed tears. I don't know what he said in his prayer, like a very heavy burden. Does he miss Sheza and Iza?

Although they were born separate, but Aina knew that Najib could not let them both off.

Tonight, for the umpteenth time Aina witnessed that. He wished to immediately put an end to this matter, so that later on, it would not be a burden if he had to leave them for good. This is because of her troubled pregnancy, so until now she was not so sure if she would be able to pass the birth safely.

He got off the bed cautiously, approaching Najib who was still in a position of rest on the prayer mat.

“Mas.” Aina spoke in a spoiled voice, touching her shoulders gently as well.

Najib immediately rubbed his face with both palms, ending the lurch in revealing the prayer.

“Ya, what's up Dik.” Najib turned around and grasped the hand gently.

The streaks of sadness that appeared on her face, made Aina go awry. When silent, she feels overwhelmed by the problems that occur between Sheza and her husband. If you say, fear of not pleasing and increasingly complicate the situation. But, he really wanted to talk.

“You can't sleep, can you? ... Here!” bring Najib.

He grabbed Aina's head and placed it on her chest.

“Mas still thinking of them?”

For a moment there were no words or sounds, there was only silence between the two. Occasionally, he sounded out a gentle breath, sweeping the face of the wife who was still loyal leaning on his chest, waiting for the answer he would give.

“Lying if I don't think about them. But for what, it's been a part of the past.” He held his wife tightly. She did not want Aina to know that she was currently desperately covering her fragile heart.

Aina looked at him sadly.

“Why did you ask about that?” He tries to dive into Aina's mind-path, figuring out what her wife wants. But long awaited no answer came out of the lips of his wife. Maybe it's better for him to be blunt with what he feels.

“Right now, I just want to keep you company, that's all. And waiting for our baby to see the world. Okay ... Please do not make your heart sad or worried, everything will be fine.”

There is no anger or anxiety. What seemed to be only a calmness that had changed all the water of his face a moment ago, made Aina even more sad.

“I know mas still heavy take them off,” said Aina sadly.

“What do you want, want me to go back to Sheza?” It was very curious for him to laugh in the face of his wife's truly strange demeanor. It used to be polygamy, often lashing. It's monogamous, even sad.

“Ya.” Nodding. Najib was shocked, and his hand stopped rubbing Aina's stomach.

Najib took a breath, exhaled it slowly. It was hard to hear the expression of his wife's heart.

He stared at the black bead in his wife's eyeball which always exuded calmness and peace for him.

“Because of me, you split.”

Najib doesn't know what else to say for Aina to calm down.

“Throw that feeling away. You guys nothing's wrong. Precisely the wrong mas, Mas is too selfish to get you both. Never think about the feelings of the women you love. You all got hurt .” He paused for a moment to waste his heavy breathing.

“This is my final decision. Don't ask me again about this.” Its effects.

Aina's tears melted, she felt even more guilty.

“If it was a decision. May I meet Sheza.”

“Alright, will be working on.”

“Still, Mas.”

Najib nodded. This is better. Rather than continuing to argue that there will never be an end. Enough for him to understand this. Don't let Aina or the others know what she's feeling.
