The Woman You Ignore

The Woman You Ignore
Episode 29's


Finally Aina returned home to the residence of Ms. Mariam, she had to live there rather than she was in the castor stamp in her village. He was so traumatized by those words.


"Aina, what exactly happened there? why are you so moody." asked Shaka curiously.


"The first time I came there, I met my male friend Aksa. He was my friend when I was in school, yesterday he greeted me and he came with me on a pilgrimage to my parents. I didn't even know she was married" Aina took a rough breath.


"After returning home from the pilgrimage, I saw some residents in my yard. There was a woman holding a child, and she was the wife of Aksa" she said with trembling lips, but Shaka tried to strengthen her. He was still curious about the continuation of his story.


"Then after that?" he said by stroking the back of Aina's hand.


"The woman was angry with me, and she thought of me as an actor. You know I hate that name so much." Aina started to shed her tears, she was not strong enough to remember the incident yesterday afternoon.


"They all wanted to burn down my parents' house, and even I got kicked by that woman and I begged her not to do anything to my parents' house." Aksa who heard it also he was furious at Aina's irresponsible male friend. If he had been there he might have saved Aina. Shaka could not bear to see Aina's sadness and he hugged and strengthened her so that Aina did not remember yesterday's incident.


"Don't cry anymore, now I'm here. Sorry, because I'm not coming with you. You've been through all this" he said. Aina was crying more and more in Shaka's arms, she tightened her arms to make Shaka more and more heartless.


Adam clenched his hands, seeing Aina and Shaka embrace each other. Her heart ached hearing Aina's story, but she didn't like to see them embrace.


"Mas," call Erina.


"Yes, what's wrong Erina."


"Yes" Adam answered briefly.


"Why do you still hope for him? I'm your wife Mas, and she's your ex-wife. Why are you still looking for her." said Erina with quivering lips enduring her heartache and jealousy.


"Erina, do you know that Aina was my mother's confidant? I can't just let him go."


"That means you don't appreciate how I feel, Mas, I'm willing to marry you to carry your child" she shouted.


Adam pulls Erina's hand and takes her into her room, not wanting Aina and Shaka to hear her quarrel.


"What do you mean, huh? are you sorry you were pregnant with my son. Just so you remember, I saved you from that old man. If only you hadn't married me then you would have lived in agony with old grandfather. You want?"


Erina was silent with Adam's words, what Adam said was true. But he also could not accept if Adam still expects his ex-wife. He was jealous of all that, because he was not only to marry Adam but he really loved Adam.


"Why are you silent. Remember that! we're married just to have kids."


"What do you mean, Mas? you married me because you love me. You promised me to make me the only one. Until when I won't be willing if you go back to your ex-wife!" emphatically. Erina did not expect Adam's increasingly changing attitude towards her. Even before the divorce with Aina, he was very spoiled by Adam. Unlike now, she often quarreled only because of the ex-wife of her husband.
