After her husband's car started to go unseen. The woman decided to go inside. But before that, his steps stopped. When the bell rings.
“About who yes, is it possible that he came back to pick up something left behind?”
“It must be someone else, if it's true he must have gone straight in.”
Before opening the door for her guest, Meisya first peeked at the window.
Quickly he opened the door when he found out his father-in-law was coming.
“Dad!” his great-granddaughter, the woman wondered why her father-in-law was visiting the house. It was not that her husband had gone to the office.
“Just Dad's son, leaving!”
The middle-aged man let out a heavy sigh, before raising his voice. “Daddy is not looking for it, I want to talk to you!”
Of course the woman was surprised to hear that. Not without reason. For this was the first time his father-in-law had come to his residence. Just to talk to him.
He then allowed his father to enter the house. But his father-in-law chose to sit on the terrace.
“Host, some time ago, Dad asked you to check fertility and the result ..not as expected.”
The deg!
The woman squeezed her fingers, for some reason her chest was so tight. When he knew the purpose of his father-in-law visiting, he just wanted to discuss the issue of heredity.
“Hosts! I heard your conversation with Ali. When you stay at our house. You said if you don't care if Ali remarries.”
The woman fell limp. It does. She once offered polygamy to her husband. When they came home from the hospital to take the test results and lapse a week when they stayed at Brahmanta's house.
But what he said at the time. Nothing more than a form of frustration. Given if the test results diagnose it as barren.
“May, only Ali is one-on-one father's son, if he has no children. What about our company? We need a successor for his grandfather Ali company!” Take a breath for a moment.
“Dad knows If Daddy's son, loves you very much. He's a good man Mei! But you have to know one thing, the nature of the husband wants to be a father,” said Brahmanta full of emphasis at the end of the sentence.
There is an implied thing that can be caught in the words of his father-in-law at that time.
“Dad sure he'd be happy. If he gets that top title. Don't you want to see your husband who loves you more than anyone, happy?” brahmanta said a little.
The middle-aged was as if telling her, the meaning of reciprocity.
That means she has to make her husband happy.
By making Ali a father.
His lips were clenched, to be honest he was not able to. If her husband is polygamous, but as a wife. She also wanted to see her husband happy.
What's he supposed to do?
Her father-in-law openly asked her to persuade Ali to marry again.
“Although you once told him to be polygamous. I feel Ali, it won't be easy to agree to your offer. Had he been pleased, it seems that he would not have accepted your offer so quickly either. But as a wife ..you must be able to understand her feelings. And meet his needs. Descendants also enter the need.”
The woman closed her eyes, it was hard to follow the orders of her father-in-law.
But there is a point, perhaps Ali did not accept his offer to polygamy for fear of hurting his heart.
“Better just force him to polygamy. We find the right woman for her, before we let it go. Just imagine..if Ali suddenly fell in love with a woman out there.”
“Before that happens, it would be nice for us to participate. Let your household not be destroyed ..maybe force polygamy and find a woman. Make the continuity of your household in the future,” Brahmanta proposal smiles meaningfully.
Brahmanta spoke as if he knew what was going on ahead. For his son and daughter-in-law.
For some reason the words of his father-in-law who was sitting next to him, frightened him.
What if his father-in-law's words are correct?
Isn't that more painful?
Impulsive decision making also occurs. Not without reason, the middle-aged man who was his father-in-law status, could make him cornered and depressed.

...
The pencil he had been holding fell, he came to his senses from his daydream.
“If you knew Bib, everything I said was not true. I told you. What?” chuckles bitterly. “ Polygamy just want to get heaven's reply? Hahaha It's all just a pretext for you to get married.” Laughing at his own stupidity.
“There was a fear I felt, back then. Regarding father's words,” regretted wiping away the tears behind his niqab.
“As a wife I want to see you happy. Even though I had to sacrifice everything. And I realized, what you said was true from the heart. You never wanted polygamy. What dad said about you, if you don't feel good about accepting polygamy fast. It's wrong, it's all just an illusion. Not true!”
Decisions made impulsively. Rarely think about the consequences that will happen in the future.
“It turns out I didn't recognize you very well huh Bib!” chuckles bitterly.
He regretted, why it was so easy to be instigated.
“However, what I said a while ago is true. I tried to scavenge you, and now that sincerity has increased.”
But what will that sincerity be forever?
Or just temporary?
I don't know!
Meisya's eyes stared at the wall clock.
“It's two o'clock, but I haven't had time to finish the design I want to show to the customer!” said Meisya staring at the HVS paper that has not been scribbled in the slightest. The woman wiped her tears, trying to focus on drawing a dress.

...
On the other hand Wan Aina was chopping onions, but at the thought of something her hand was sliced.
“Aduh!”
Quickly the girl ran to the sink to wash her bleeding finger.
“Why yes, I feel if mas Ali, was deliberately sleeping in the reading room. Time yes, there is an intention to stay away from me?” the question did not feel tears dripping down the cheeks.
If you remember her husband's attitude, keep your distance from him.
The girl immediately wiped her cheek-wetting tears. With his collar on.
“I should have realized, I married her not because of a couple who had been dating for a long time. We got married because of circumstances, even I was just given a picture of him, by Dad!”
“But why when we play flour, he can after that. Different when we're just two. Is it because there's Meisya's mom! So she's happy?”
Her memory returns as they play flour in Meisya's kitchen.
There is envy that infiltrates the heart, when remembering. Ali's treatment of him is different from Ali's treatment of Meisya.
If Ali stays with him, Ali can still visit his first wife's house. But when Ali lived with Meisya, the man never visited her at all.
“Do I not deserve your visit, Mas? Did you forget, if you also have a wife you just married?” tanyanya.
“Actually what makes you so in love with your first wife? I want to know, let me also know what it's like to be loved by my husband!” she was upset, she wondered why her husband loved Meisya so much.
Until he could not turn to her.
“Yes God, I want to be loved by my husband. I want him to pay attention to me! Until no one can take his eyes off me.”
