Brigit looked at his wife's face and grabbed her into his chest. This time Martha sobbed and hit her husband's chest with both hands.
"Why did you betray me? What is my lack of you pah? I tried to be a good and loyal wife, I even helped ease your burden by working, but you made my heart hurt." said Martha then walked away from her husband.
Her husband was silent and did not do any defense, as if he knew if served it would be a big storm.
Martha walked over and saw the knife lying on the floor and picked it up. He came out of the room and walked into the kitchen.
Put the knife down and look at him again. The pain, which you give, is the same as the feeling of being stabbed by this knife.
Suddenly, his son called from his room.
"Well, mama...." Martha ran into her son's room. His son cried and called his name.
"Well, Lucy had a nightmare, mama temenin Lucy's here huh." said Lucy's 7-year-old son.
"Dear, my mother will sleep here, pray before going to bed, so as not to have nightmares," said Martha lying down beside Lucy.
Lucy smiled cutely and raised both her hands to pray. Then he looked at his mother's face. His smile disappeared instantly as he looked into his mother's eyes.
"Well, was my mom a nightmare? How do my mama's eyes water? Same as Lucy, right? Crying during a nightmare?" ask Lucy plain.
Martha immediately smiled and hid the sadness she was currently experiencing.
"Don't you, mama wasn't having nightmares, it was in the kitchen, my eyes were flickering" said Martha, winking repeatedly as if she was completely flickering.
"Oh mama don't go anywhere, Lucy's sleepy..."
"Yes, mama rubbed her forehead yeah, let's go fast," said Martha as one of her hands rubbed Lucy's forehead until her little daughter fell asleep.
After her daughter fell asleep, she stared at that innocent face with a trenchant taste.
Martha looked at him and remembered her childhood.
Long ago,
When he was in 2nd grade, he began to understand something was different from him. She is a shy and quiet girl. None of this happened without cause.
The reason all of that happened and shaped his character was because his parents were not in harmony. They often quarrel over money and differences in principles.
Every day, little Martha was terrified whenever they raised her voice in her face.
He took a deep breath in remembering the time he had to choose between following his father, or mother, when they decided to divorce.
Now facing him, the little girl fruit from his marriage was also making him a dilemma.
Between divorce and survival.
Long she thought about what decision she would make tomorrow morning for the mistake her husband had made.
Doesn't feel like his chest is getting sicker and tighter. His tears flowed again without him noticing.
Mistakes have been made. Only he must choose to forgive or let go.
Everything happened before his eyes. Her husband also admitted that he was a caliph. Suffice her confession and her apology, to make her husband will not make any more mistakes once he chooses to forgive.
Martha fell asleep and woke up in the morning.
She wakes up and prepares breakfast and a change of clothes for her husband.
Brigit came out of the room and was ready for breakfast. He walked to the kitchen and saw Martha taking the plate.
Brigit walked up to him and hugged him from behind, as if implying he was unwilling to lose his wife.
Martha closed her eyes and breathed heavily. He was silent, letting Brigit hug him for a few minutes without talking to each other.
"Is the breakfast ripe?" brigit asked whispering in Martha's ear.
"Ehm, it's good, let's have breakfast, the kids are ready, too" said Martha and Brigit turned her back and they stood facing each other.
Brigit grabbed Martha by the waist and pulled her into her arms. Then he kissed his wife.
After that, they walked to the dining table. His two children were sitting there with school bags next to them.
"Well, pah, today there's a morning picket, can we leave the part?" tanya Tegar looked at her papa.
"Yes, papa will take you just to work" said Brigit who works as a staff at one of the meat import companies with umr salary.
"Lucy let mama deliver, you leave after your father and brother yes..."
"Yes," Lucy replied, holding her parents' hands and saying in her innocence
"Well, yesterday Lucy's friend her parents didn't live together anymore. They say break up, mommy's equally papa don't break up huh...Lucy does not want to be separated from my mom, either." said Lucy with a tone and intonation of innocence.
Brigit looked at Martha and clasped his wife's hand.
"No, we will stay together forever." answered Martha and accompanied by a nod by Brigit.
Martha smiled and brought rice and side dishes for her husband and son.
They ate and the breakfast atmosphere felt different than usual for Martha and Brigit. They were swept away in each other's minds.
Brigit takes Tegar to school, and there he meets a woman named Sarita. Brigit was so shocked that Sarita was too.
Sarita quickly walked towards Brigit who was about to start her motorbike.
"What are you doing here?" brigit asked Sarita.
"My son goes to school here, mas" said Sarita.
"What?" Brigit was very surprised and never expected him if his son Tegar turned out to be a class with his daughter Sarita.
"I'm in the mas, I'm now working near your office,"
"What?" Brigit was again surprised because all this time he never asked where Sarita lived and where she worked.
"Yes, I and Johan were recently divorced, I am pregnant, and this is your son" Sarita said, making the sky collapse on Brigit's head that morning.
The world seemed to stop spinning and she felt her chest tight due to the shock of hearing Sarita's confession.
Sarita just stared at Brigit and wished him responsibility for what he had done together.
Sarita waits for a reply from Brigit to marry her.
"When are we getting married?" tanya Sarita holds Brigit accountable.
