Brigit returns from the office after delivering Sarita first.
On the way, he kept thinking about how to get approval from Martha so that she could remarry.
Sarita is pregnant, and asks that she be held accountable. So she had no choice but to ask Martha's permission to make her a second wife.
"Your mother has gone home? Is it not overtime? You usually come home at 9. It's only 6 o'clock" said Martha, making a cup of coffee for her husband.
"I'm not overtime. I miss you, anyway,"
"Ah, you can have a reward" said Martha who had begun to soften and was no longer angry with Brigit because of her affair.
Brigit embraces Martha and suppresses her two favorite pieces. Today Martha wears a shirt with a low chest, to make her look sexy in the eyes of Brigit.
"What cooking?"
"Today cook pah fish, will you eat now?"
"Yes, I'm so hungry" Brigit said, taking two of his hands out of his wife's shirt.
"Then, mama takein now huh pah?" Martha immediately took food for her husband lovingly.
They ate together and forgot what happened yesterday. Martha smiled happily because she could have dinner with her husband.
In recent weeks, her husband has been very busy and rarely eats at home, almost never. He said if he had to work overtime to increase income.
Martha did not mind and every night ate only with her son, and sometimes alone.
After dinner, Brigit held Martha because her two children had slept faster.
"Let's get some sleep now" Brigit said, opening the door, and then gently put his wife to bed.
Brigit immediately threw himself aside from his wife.
"Bring first pa, mama is ready to put on a change of clothes" Martha said to her husband as she was about to undress Martha.
Brigit then nodded and immediately walked to the bathroom. In the bathroom, he did not shower immediately. Instead of daydreaming and thinking about how to tell his problem to his wife without a fight.
"I have to say it right away. I don't want to continue to be tormented by anxiety and fear" Brigit spoke to himself.
After thinking about and being ready with Martha's reaction, Brigit then came out of the bathroom, as she took a quick shower.
"Fast pa, take a shower," said Martha.
Brigit stared at his wife. I can't believe she told him all this.
But putting it off would only make him tormented and feel anxious all day.
Brigit sat down next to his wife. He clasped her hand and kissed her softly.
Martha felt her heart warm.
"Mah..."
"Yes...."
Brigit fell silent and the atmosphere became silent.
"When you get married again, how?"
Martha was shocked and agape.
"Don't joke with me?"
"Ma, papa's serious. What if you get married again?"
"But why?" As she asked, Martha's tears welled up in both of her eyes.
"Papa had made the woman pregnant mah, he demanded papa to marry her," said Brigit still clasping tightly to his wife's hand.
The confession from her husband made her heart shake. Dream shattered. The happiness he had just felt was gone.
"Hhhhhh..." Martha simply breathed quickly, without being able to say a word. His shoulders were up and down because of the heavy breathing.
"Ma, papa's appointment, papa's salary, just for mama, the woman doesn't mind if I don't give her the money,"
"Pa..hiks...."
Martha wiped away her tears that dripped like a flood.
He closed his eyes and thought hard of an answer that would not hurt his two children.
Her husband said the woman was pregnant. She was willing to be a second wife without being blessed. But, I will lose half the attention of my husband, he will divide the time that should only be for himself but should be divided in two with the woman if he remarries.
"Give me some time." said Martha and let go of her husband's hand.
