When You Think Wrong
Single-minded

The presiding judge who had originally stood up now sat back down, everyone sat back down and we became a one-room spectacle

“I'm sorry Tom. I have to do this. I know you don't accept it, but I hope that over time you will understand why I took this difficult decision

“But not with divorced Dinda. You know I love you so much...”.

“Pak Marsudi please pull Tomi” I said again with as much as you like

Strongly, Mr. Marsudi pulled Tomi's shoulder until his embrace to me was released. As soon as Tomi's embrace came off, I immediately sprinted away from the courtroom with tears rushing out of my eyes

“Dinda wait!!!” Tomi came running after me

The presiding judge turned towards the member judge beside him who was also just as confused-looking. Then they shrugged their shoulders

Nanda and Yesa, who saw Dinda running, immediately stood up from where they were and ran out of the room as well. Seen outside Tomi running fast chasing Dinda who currently also seems to run fast

Tomi kept yelling my name, and I didn't care how she kept shouting my name, all I thought about now was that I should run from this place and I should avoid Tomi

“Oject!!!” I shouted when I got to the bottom

A motorbike immediately entered the courthouse area and I immediately climbed into the bonce

“Quick sir!!!” my screams that made the motorcycle driver immediately launched leaving Tomi running behind us

Nanda and Yesa were almost out of breath when they arrived at the courthouse courtyard. Both of them hunchback and cough. Yesa sat in the courtyard, massaging her chest

On the stairs appear three sisters Tomi half ran as they went down the stairs. Once he got near Tomi, the three re-clutched tightly to the brother, making Tomi cry again as much as they wanted

“Dinda really go deck. She really went....” isak Tomi in her sister's arms.

Tomi's three sisters were only able to rub the head of their older brother who was sitting in the court yard, crying like a child

“Into the car Yes, we're after Dinda!” said Nanda who made Yesa get up and immediately get into the car with Nanda

“You know about Dinda where?”

Yesa shakes. Nanda took a deep breath to find Yesa's answer. And asked Yesa to call Dinda

“Ngak lifted Nda”

Back Nanda took a deep breath and continued to run his car by continuing to turn left right hoping if he would cross paths or see Dinda on the side of the road

Next to him looking at Mila's car, he understood that the car next to him was Mila's. The left side of the glass opened and Rohaya's face appeared

“We go to Dinda's usual place if she's sad again!!!” rohaya's shout made Nanda nod her head and follow Mila's car from behind

Yesa just silently watched Nanda increase the speed of the car, and she again repeated calling Dinda. And I who was now on the edge of a lake was only able to cry as much as myself. The breeze of the afternoon moved my hair child who was dangling apart as a result of me crying ever since

“Dinda!!!” yelled a lot of voices that made me throw my face and directly turn my back on them all

“Let me and Yesa approach Dinda” Nanda said as her four other best friends were ready to move forward

“Din....” call Nanda slowly.

I turned my head with a wet face and I immediately stretched out my hand so that it made Nanda directly hug me. In Nanda's arms I cried again

“What, what have I not felt Nda? What kind of pain I haven't felt, huh?. About family? About friendship? Betrayal, disappointment. I have all felt. Less especially Nda??! my sobs

Nanda rubbed my back, while Yesa rubbed her face rough because she was also already crying as soon as Nanda grabbed me

“Mental I've been beaten all out. I have all felt. Betrayed husband, betrayed best friend, colonized in-law. And now it's still added with Tomi who broke my heart. I'm tired Nda, I'm tired.....!!”.

“Iya I know you're tired Din. Therefore you must be sincere, yes?”

I shut up and drowned my face in Nanda's chest. Crying so hard

“You are not alone Din. We are there for you...” lirih Putri.

“Go you!!!. I don't need the four of you. You guys are not my best friends anymore!!” yell at

Then I went back to crying so hard that Nanda kept wiping my head

The next two years

I took Joseph's hand affectionately as soon as I walked to the bus line that would deliver Arik's study tour today. Arik who has been in fifth grade SD today will go to Yogyakarta with his school group because they will study tour all holidays

“Be careful on the road yes son...” said mas Adi while hugging Arik when our second child will climb into one of the buses that will take him.

Arik nodded, immediately hugged his father, then took turns hugging me and kissed Joseph on the cheek

Adi and I waved at Arik who was walking towards the bus where not only were we delivering our children here, but there were many parents who were also delivering their children

“Yusuf if you have grown up later the streets are also rich brother” said mas Adi while rubbing Yusuf's head

Yusuf raised his head then nodded towards Mas Adi who continued to smile while rubbing his head

“Dad…. Ibuk....!!!” a voice from behind that I know very well

“Which cricket?” her question was as soon as it got in front of us

Me and Adi compactly pointed to a bus that was almost closed door. Naya ran back to the bus and jumped up and down while waving her hand so that the bus door opened again

Adi and I caught each other when they saw Naya get on the bus

“I was buying a snack for Arik on Jalan” said Yesa who like to understand with our surprise

“Oh, kirain Naya wants to join the study tour as well” I replied while chuckling

Then Naya appeared to descend from the bus, and again she waved both hands in front of the bus driver who made the bus driver lift his two thumbs towards Naya. Then Naya ran towards us

As soon as we got closer Naya immediately lifted Joseph's body and kissed his face with anxiety

“Make the boy you said earlier?” asked Yesa, who made Naya lower Joseph and turned to me

“What's up?” I was curious to look directly at Yesa and Naya alternately

“Can ya buk me a week vacation at home mama?”

I immediately turned back towards Yesa who was smiling meaningfully at me. Then I looked at Adi

“Ya buk? Please......!” connect Naya again while putting her hands together in front of her chest towards me

“Let's trouble mama. Poor mama again pregnant”my answer

Yesa laughed

“Once in a while Din, Naya to our house. Kan he is also again off school” replied Yesa who made me take a deep breath

“She is a slacker Yes, instead of helping you at home she will even make you more bother” reject me

Naya's face was instantly manyuned as soon as I told Yesa her bad temper

“And there is his father, what is the use of Mas Adi if mas Adi can not help me at home” replied Yesa who is able to make me laugh

“Ya already, may then. You don't mind if Naya comes to your house?” I asked Mas Adi who had been squatting in front of Joseph and Karen

“Of course not. I'm even happy that finally my favorite child wants to go to his parents' house” replied mas Adi while embracing Naya

“Ya already if so we immediately leave” said Yesa while stroking her distended stomach

I did not have time to answer because the motorcade of buses carrying study tour students began to walk and honk their horns that made Karen and Joseph dance. No exception Naya, she also jogged to the rhythm of the sound of the bus horn

I just shook my head to see her behavior, while Yesa instead took her phone and captured the moment our three children were busy dancing while laughing giggling

“Let's go home get your clothes” said I after the bus car away

Naya shook her head as she nodded towards me

“The book is already in the car, I prepared it last night. I secretly put it in the car so that mom can not refuse my request” he said which is able to make me pinch his cheek with anxiety

Naya runs to the back of Yesa, holding onto Yesa's shoulder, and Naya tries to avoid my hand from pinching her. Laughter broke out from the mouths of all of us, until Adi raised Joseph's body to avoid being hit by us who ran

“Already ah, pity mama” said I who gave up because of pity to see the body of Yesa who moved unnaturally due to being made a shield by Naya

I then grabbed Yesa and handed Naya over to her. Ordering to her if Naya pisses her off she doesn't hesitate to scold Naya because Naya is also her child not my own child. Yesa nodded her head which made Naya's face come back manyun

“Let's rest baby, no one dares to scold you while there dad” bela mas Adi that makes me and Yesa mutually pitying then both sneer

After the car that was driven by Mas Adi walked, Yusuf and I also entered our car. Joseph sat next to me with so many snacks nearby. The snack that Yesa bought earlier

Now that I am at complete peace with my heart, I am truly giving away everything that has happened in my life over the years. I believe this is all destined for me, like it or not I have to accept the decree of the Khalik. Because I'm sure this is the best for me

I don't know if there's been a pair of eyes watching us from afar. Occasionally a bitter smile was etched on his face when he saw us laughing happily. There were even times when tears could not be felt running down his face, especially when he saw Joseph

“We go home buk?” joseph asked unclearly because his mouth was full

I shook my head

“We meet the same aunty-aunty beautiful. They have been waiting for us” I replied while continuing to drive the car to ecoresto where my six friends had been waiting for my arrival

And when I arrive at ecoresto, Yusuf will again become an idol of my friends because he is the smallest here. And again I did not realize that there was a pair of eyes that continued to follow wherever I moved

“You are more beautiful with the hijab that now covers your head Din” praise Mila while embracing me

I smiled at them all. The six new friends today we were able to regroup after two years we had no communication other than between me and Nanda and Lisa

“Kan I was beautiful from the first...” selorohku that makes us re-embrace each other.

Tomi, who was sitting some distance away from where Dinda and her friends were back, could only smile bitterly when she saw his ex-wife laughing

“You deserve to be happy Din. I'm happy because you can finally laugh like you used to,” softly while rubbing his face rough

Then Tomi came down from the cottage where she ate, walking out of the eco-resto with a hollow heart

...EXPIRE...
