Wrong Uterus
Chapter.10

The night was getting more intense, Arman did not also go from the main balcony of his house. For a moment he thought about Syifa's words this afternoon. If he remembers again the last time he prayed five times, when Chyntia was still at his side.

Since the trauma of losing his wife, Arman has lost his way, be it about religion or love that has been numb.

But today he was slapped again when Syifa asked what was actually trivial but he had forgotten. Although trivial but he felt to be a useless stupid man.

He doesn't even know the direction of the Qibla. He and Chyntia used to live in an apartment and when he moved into the house he no longer practiced worship because he felt God had never sided with him, he was so devastated after Chintya's death.

Arman tries to heal himself with the busyness of the world, in order to forget all the wounds incised by the universe. Will his heart go back after all this time?

"Mas hasn't slept?"

Arman's daydreams collapsed for a moment, when he heard someone's voice right to his left, he turned his head and found Syifa there. "You yourself why haven't you slept? Pregnant women can't stay up."

Syifa looked up at the star-filled sky, smiling as she looked at the clear sky. "Hm, I'm not used to sleeping in a new place, maybe in a moment."

Do I have to ask him about it, it seems like he's a pretty open person, Inner Arman.

"Syifa, do you want to hear one story?"

"Maybe, what about life, work or love?"

Is it true I should ask, but it seems he understands about religion, inner Arman.

"I've fallen down even to this point I feel like I can't get up again, losing Cynthia there's the most painful thing I've ever felt. There was one time, where I hated my own destiny and blamed the world for everything that happened to me at that time. Seeing you so panicked when your prayer mat was left behind, suddenly I remembered my wife's late home she was too, sometimes she was too careless to forget to put her face and also her alphabet. Ck, I find it so funny to remember all those moments. Now that I'm just a man who's lost his way, blind in the light, I'm also confused about what I'm trying to keep alive right now for."

Syifa thought Arman would tell her about something silly, but in fact her husband looked so serious. It makes him wonder what kind of woman named Chintya that can flip through the world of an Arman Alfarizi.

Want to ask but feel so presumptuous, so as much as possible Syifa avoids this because it does not want to violate someone's privacy. "There is nothing wrong with a man except by the permission of Allah and whoever believes in Allah, Allah will guide him. And Allah is All-Knowing. That's what I believe so far. Try to apply those words from now on, Mas's heart will be calmer."

Arman was silent for a while, stunned to hear all Syifa's words that made her soul tremble. "Hm, you're right it seems like I have to change my mindset to be healthier, for the sake of my son in the future. I think Chintya must be angry to see my life screwed up like now."

Again he mentioned that name. It seems like Mas Arman's love for his late wife is so great, Syifa's inner.

"Syifa, tomorrow I'll-"

Crutches.kruk.

Arman stopped his speech when he heard the sound of stomach rumbling. "You hungry?"

With a face that was flushed with embarrassment Syifa shook her head slowly. "It's not me, it's Cabay."

"Gosh, he's strong eat too."

Arman and Syifa laughed together, because they felt funny about the situation that occurred at this time. How not the presence of Cabay in the womb of Syifa makes the situation between them more softened than at the beginning of the meeting.

...**...

The next day, Arman returned to work as usual. After parking the car in the basement of the office, he stepped into the lobby smiling at everyone who greeted him.

This morning the employees were busy as usual, passing by and out to carry out their work. Arman's steps were stopped when accidentally his gaze saw a man who had just met him yesterday.

"Good morning, Word."

Yes, today Firman has also returned to work but the situation is a little different there is a sense of awkward when he met Arman again after the incident yesterday. "Oh i-iya, good morning sir."

Arman stood beside Firman, waiting for the elevator door to open. "I heard from Syifa, that you're her ex-husband-to-be?"

Word tried to restrain himself because the one who was asking him was the superior, but his heart rumbled withstanding the emotional turmoil, he hated this situation. "Well that's it. Until one incident made me leave him."

"Have you heard the explanation from him?" asked Arman, squinting his eyes.

"Why hear the explanation of a woman who claims to be holy and untouchable, but even pregnant out of wedlock. I'm sorry if I'm presumptuous but since you've already discussed this, I'd like to ask if you've been in a relationship with Syifa for a long time to get her pregnant?"

Arman's hand was tightly gripped, if he was not in the office at this time, his fist would have landed right on the face of the Word. "Ck, do you really love Syifa? Your feelings are too shallow to be called love. Don't ever insult her again, she's under my protection."

Arman patted Firman on the shoulder and then stepped away from the place there was a sense of annoyance when he saw the man who had been mourned by Syifa, no more than a loser.

Arriving at the office, Arman was immediately greeted by the secretary who always looked at him with strange eyes. "Good morning sir, we have a meeting outside this morning. Can we leave now?"

"Ah not like that, I have other duties for you," Arman told Shila.

"Other tasks, what is it?" ask Shila back.

"Go to the mall now, buy me a prayer kit for women and men after that buy several boxes of milk pregnant women various flavors, meeting this morning let me handle myself," arman then walked away. He was sure that if he remained there, Shila would ask him various things.

After Arman enters Shila, he is angry and upset that he failed to perform artificial insemination. "Ah shit, for sure for that woman, I should have gotten the attention of Mr. Arman."
