CHAPTER 72


Feri just finished his job. It's the last Sunday he's in the office. In the next few days he will undergo pingitan until the anticipated time will arrive. Feri took his phone trying to contact the lover. When will they see each other again for the next two weeks. After that they become husband and wife.


For a moment his gaze was fixed on a photo on his desk. Her smile expands considering her love journey. It was unexpected that his heart was anchored back to Tina. The woman he once adored. The girl who used to make it in a school bully. At that time he initially hoped that Tina could escape from Glen. Because that guy's no good to Tina.


Finished cleaning up some work Feri plans to leave the room. He planned to meet Tina to take his future wife to lunch together. Moreover, this was the last week of their meeting as lovers.


"Sir," Dance's voice greeted her.


"Yes, Dance."


"Someone wants to see you."


"Who?" Feri felt he had no appointments with anyone else. The 29-year-old walked into the office lobby.


A young man was sitting quietly in the corner seat. Occasionally glance at the clock and then move to the mobile phone. Of course he was nervous because the one he was waiting for never came.


"Glen," the man looked up.


"You've finally come too. I thought you wouldn't want to see me. Sorry if I was sudden, because this afternoon I want to go to Surabaya. Help my parents' small business."


Feri sat in front of the rival man. Whether it can still be called a rival or not, surely because the man in front of him is the ex-husband of his future wife.


"Congratulations, yes. It was you who won Tina's heart. After our competition in High School. And I made you so vengeful. Until you get involved in the overthrow of the company I hold. Actually, Tina's company hasn't died completely. Everything is arranged the same for Amran. Unfortunately Tina doesn't believe what I'm explaining." explains Glen.


Feri frowned after hearing Glen's story. Between believing and not believing. Especially considering that Glen was indeed unable to be trusted. Feri's hand folded over his chest.


Glen understands it won't be easy to make Feri trust him. But he didn't give up. Believe it or not is a matter of late. What matters is that he's trying to tell the truth.


"So what's your purpose here, Glen?" still with a flat tone.


"Glen?" greet the soft voice that appeared from behind Feri.


"You're here too? It's okay, it's better."


"What's up, mas?" sapa Tina shines Feri's hand like a wife and husband.


"Glen said he wanted to leave" Feri said.


"Where are you going, Glen. I want you to come to my wedding in two weeks" Tina said after anchoring her body in the seat next to Feri.


"I want to go back to Surabaya. Mama's sick, my papa's gone no news. Giana, since marriage never came home again. It was my mother who married Giana and Hendri, her husband.


Mama has a small cake business. Giana used to be willing to help, but ever since she married, she's been working alone.


Tina, Mama would love to see you. Mama feels guilty for what she did to you and your family. I also represent papa and Giana, apologize to you, Na.


I'm sorry that as long as you're a husband you never make you happy."


"Glen, I've forgiven you long before I left home. I know myself, when you said you were going to marry me, there was a great hope that material happiness was not spiritual.


I forgot that what happened to my family was a rebuke from God. I forgot that papa's pain was also a rebuke from God. But I didn't expect that I wasn't a wife but a domestic worker. I was married to be made a maid not a wife. I'm even..."


"Feri, Tina is still virgin, I haven't had time to touch her let alone give her an inner living. I was too overwhelmed by what I had achieved all this time. Home at night, stay at the nightclub. That's what I did during our six-month marriage. I'm sorry, Tina.


Before I leave and you get married, I want to take care of our divorce proceedings. I did run you over Feri's threats. But right now I'm going to take you officially. Tina from now on you are no longer my wife."


"Well, divorce me, Glen." said Tina without any emotion. She spoke calmly to her ex-husband. This is what he's been waiting for all this time.


Glen just looked down. Though he still loves Tina, he realizes what he's done has hurt his ex-wife. Glen was sincere because he himself was the one who turned Tina religiously.


"Titip Tina, take good care of him. If I hear he's sad again, you're the first person I kill." Glen said as a threat.


After Glen pamit. Tina and Feri sat down together. The two were suddenly silent after the meeting. Tina was confused as to where to explain. Almost a year they postponed the wedding plans because of many things. And now they have to complete the long-hanging status of Tina.


"Why is he saying that now? why not some time ago when our wedding plans were still far away? why are there so many problems we have to face?"


"Sorry, Feri" said Tina, looking down.


"We're a couple, right, Tina. Why do you never be frank with your status that has not been directly talked about. Why are you covering up this so much?


Tina left Feri still upset after hearing Glen's statement. For a moment he realized that his attitude offended Tina. Feri quickly chased after his lover. There was a feeling of guilt already scolding his future wife. Though he knew the status of Tina who was Talak Glen because of his former grudge.


"I'm sorry, Tina." Inner Ferries.


Tina sat in a courtyard of the Istiqlal mosque. His heart was a little claustrophobic with Feri's attitude. Feri's voice boomed as if to blame him. For a moment he heard a lecture from inside the mosque.


“The temptation before the wedding is given so that our hearts are more stable. Aliasnya, we will not be good at riding a bike if it never falls.


The test that befalls a person is given to see how much patience he has, as well as how much he steadies himself to him This is also so that we can be greater in passing the trials when we are married.


The temptation that comes is a reminder to us that marriage is not a game, so before getting into it, we are given many exams,” the contents of a lecture from an ustad.


Tina walked into the largest mosque in Asia. Sitting in the corner of the room listening to everything described with a pak ustad.


"I don't mean to hinder our wedding plans. I don't know why there are problems coming. And that problem is from my past. What that means is that it is a sign that we are not destined together.


I'm sorry, Feri."


"I'm sorry too, Tina. I shouldn't blame you for everything that happened. Though I know about but because of my selfishness it made your heart hurt.


Don't tell me anymore that we're not meant to be together. Whatever problems that occur both before and after marriage we face together.


I love you, Martina Priscilla Agatha."

"Bye,"


"Why appear again? I started living a quiet life without you? why are you coming again?"


"I'm sorry, Dira. I haven't had much memory of us. But the one that I realize with you is the debris of memories that keep chasing me."


"Son Juna asked me to believe that? the same time you brought the reason to move on just to give up the responsibility of your brother with Delia."


"Is it like that? that bad I was in your eyes?"


"It wasn't that bad. But after a year of disappearing and suddenly a child calls you a father. That's bad in my eyes."


"Listen to me first, Dira."


"I used to listen to you, Arjuna. Of all your problems with Delia. The complexity of your romance I always listen. But did you ever listen to me, no brother! I gave time to them and you. Have you ever obeyed him?"


"You already have Naura and Jimmy. I lost my son and my husband. Be happy with them." Dira died Juna in front of the cafe courtyard.


Dira walking without direction. His heart trembled after expressing his disappointment to Arjuna. No woman wants to be combined. The reason is amnesia. His body was squeezed, a chair near an office building became his weary port. For a moment he shed his tears. At least he was a little relieved because the burden was off.


Out of the cafe, Dira immediately looking for a taxi nearby. But unfortunately Dira did not find a passing taxi. Strange though in the crowd but why not find a taxi that wants to stop by.


"Non," said the Cloud, who was chasing after him.


"Why did you come?" said Dira with a heavy tone.


"Because I want to take non to the hospital."


"Hospital? opa drop again?"


The clouds shook "Not opa but brother Juna. He dropped it again, because during his time in the village he had already dropped several times like that.


Non Dira come with me, yes. Brother Juna must be in desperate need of a non."


"There's Naura and Jimmy. They're more right next to Juna's sister. Awaaan!" Dira was surprised the man carried her like carrying a sack.


"I'm sorry, I was forced to." said Awan after putting Dira in the car.
