Rahma Confession

"Mama and Papa how are you?" Rahma behaved just as she did when she was the daughter-in-law of this family, nothing changed. For Rahma they are her parents too. She was accompanied by Lisna and Joseph went to her former father-in-law's house to say goodbye. They are currently sitting five in the living room.

"Thank God we're healthy, how about you son?" papa who replied, from the beginning entered the family of her ex-husband Rahma felt that her father-in-law was more loving and very caring even though it was rarely shown.

"Alhamdulillah well Pa" replied Rahma briefly, she glanced at her former mother-in-law who still did not speak but instead noticed Rahma sticking from head to toe.

"Ma..." Papa rebuked the mother when he found out that his wife had been watching Rahma since the beginning of her arrival to the house.

"Huh?..oh, yes Rahma Alhamdulillah we are good" replied mama trying to neutralize her attitude again,

"Mama, Papa.meaning my arrival here because there is something to be said. Rahma began to reveal the intent of her arrival.

"Maybe Mas Angga told us about our household. I'm sorry if this is the choice I have to make, I hope Mas Angga is happy with his new family"

"You're still our son, son" Papa chimed in again,

"Thank you Pa" Rahma replied with a sweet smile,

"Assalamu'alaikum" soon came Anggara with Friska who already seemed to have difficulty walking because of her increasingly large pregnancy, and in vain Anggara memapah his wife who was pregnant that big.

There is a sudden pain that strikes Rahma's heart to see the scene in front of her, even though she came to her former-in-law's house to deliver a copy of the divorce papers and say goodbye, but as an ordinary woman who was once so sincere in love with her ex-husband, honestly Rahma has not been that strong to see the intimacy of the ex-husband with his wife.

"Wa'alaikumsalam" compactly all replied, Rahma turned her gaze when she faced Anggara, she did not want any misunderstanding however their current status is no longer mahram.

Anggara stopped his steps for a moment, looking at the woman who was already his ex-wife, something changed from Rahma according to his vision but he did not realize what it was. Only Anggara certainly saw the aura of Rahma's beauty more radiated especially with a sweet smile that always presents dimples that are characteristic.

Rahma cupped her hands together in front of her chest and greeted Anggara and was received by Anggara with a gaze that implied regret. Do not forget to kindly Rahma also greeted Friska. They shake hands and talk cipiki, Rahma rubbed Friska's stomach and chanted do'a of course, hopefully the mother and baby are healthy.

"We also regret what happened in your household. But we also can not intervene too far with the decision you have chosen" Papa Anggara again focused all on the main subject of this meeting. They were sitting around the table in the living room.

"I'm sorry Pa, Ma, if the decision I took was less in line with your expectations. But maybe this is the best for all of us, and my arrival here to hand this over" Rahma reached into the bag she was carrying, taking out a piece of brown envelope to Anggara.

As soon as Anggara's face turned sad, his little heart was not sincere to accept the fact that he and Rahma had officially separated evidenced by the divorce deed in his hands.

Everyone who was there noticed the change in the look on Anggara's face including Friska. Since his return from Garut a month ago he gave news to Friska and his parents if he had been looking at Rahma, since then Anggara looks more quiet, less excited and much daydreaming. There were several small quarrels between Anggara and his new wife, one of the triggering factors because he had found Anggara who still kept a photo of Rahma.

"I and Angga are officially separated in the eyes of religion and law. I came here at once to say goodbye and apologize to Mama and Papa if during my time as a daughter-in-law in this family many mistakes and mistakes that I did both felt and did not noticeably. Forgive me also for not being able to be a good daughter-in-law to Mama and Papa. Hopefully in the future the life we live each of these is even better" Rahma looked at one by one the people in front of her, she spoke calmly and softly.

"I'm sorry for us too son for everything that's happened in your household. I am grateful to have known you. Until whenever papa will consider you a child, please do not forget us. Papa pray that you will soon get a better soul mate and be happy with your next life. Isn't it ma?" as usual papa spoke with great authority, he also asked for the approval of his mother who had only spoken as necessary.

"Yes, of course. We have considered you like our own child, do not forget us" said Anggara mama asserted papa's statement, he also looks guilty.

"Of course Ma, Pa....God willing, our friendship will continue. I cannot forget you, although now Mas Angga and I have status as ex-husband and wife but papa and mama are still my parents, grandmother and grandfather of my child" said Rahma,

Degs.....Anggara who had just been silent and bowed his head beside Friska who did not let go of his hand immediately looked up. He looked in wonder at Rahma who was right in front of him. Not only Anggara but Mama and her Papa including Friska looked at him in wonder.

"Rahma, what do you mean?" ask Anggara curiously,

"I'm pregnant with Mas"
