Anindira Dew
Section 121
"No, Anin. no!, please don't talk about separation". Askara flips Anin's body and now the two face each other. "There will never be a separation between us, you don't talk carelessly, Anin". Askara's face turned frantic as Anin expressed a desire to part from her.
"Well, I'm the reason why I have to defend our marriage, Mas.
"Why are you saying that, Nin. until whenever we will stay together. Soon we will both be parents.
Anin removed Askara's hand from her face.
"There's nothing more we can keep, Mas. Your feelings for Dalila at any moment will never change, and I'm here to feel like the third person among you". Anin prefers to succumb to her feelings rather than having to continue in a marriage that cannot give happiness to each other.
"-What do you mean, Anin?". asked Askara did not understand.
"I've heard everything, Mas. Your conversation with Mami Sandra, everything I've heard, and I can conclude that whenever Dalila is the one who reigns in your heart, it's not me. so why do we maintain this relationship"., Anin said with teary eyes.
Askara rubbed his face rough, Anin must have only heard a piece of his conversation with Mami Sandra earlier.
"You didn't listen to everything until the end, Anin. because if you heard everything, you'd know who my heart really belongs to". Askara drew both of Anin's hands, in her hands tightly.
"You may ask Mami the truth later, but before that let me explain everything. It is true that I was angry that Mami came to see Dalila without my knowledge, but that doesn't mean that I still have feelings for Dalila. I just don't want my pride as a man to fall in Dalila's eyes because Mami has to interfere in this matter. and the important thing you don't hear is...". Askara hangs up her words as she pulls Anin's hand. She puts Anin's hand right on her left chest.
"In this place only inhabited by one name, namely Embun Anindira.how can I choose Dalila while I love you, Nin.
Anin fell silent, she could feel Askara's heartbeat beating so fast and it managed to get her heart warmed up. But, she couldn't just trust Askara.
"You doubt me, Nin?. What is it in the depths of your heart that you no longer trust me?". asked Askara with hurt feelings as she tried to convince Anin, the woman doubted it.
"It's not all that easy as you think, Mom. I can forgive you, but can you promise me that after this you won't make the same mistake?, can you guarantee that, you can, Mas?". all this time he always believed in Askara, but for now it feels like Askara's apology is just a mere expression of meaningless words for him, it's because Askara has hurt his heart very often.
"Look at my eyes, Nin. Look carefully, did you find a lie there?". Askara asked Anin to look into his eyes to see the honesty and sincerity that he currently conveys.
Anin did as asked by Askara.he looked deeply into the bead of eyes that used to always look at him cold and sharp but now it had turned into a warm gaze.
The longer Anin looked at her husband's eagle eyes, the deeper it felt as if she was swept away in the earnestness of Askara's words.
"I'm giving you one more chance, Mas. If you repeat the same mistake this time, then nothing will be able to prevent me from parting from you". Anin makes a deal for Askara to be a man who can hold his own commitments.
A smile rose from Askara's lips as Anin forgave her, even though this was her last chance, she didn't care about it, because indeed her heart was already completely for Anin.
"Dear thank you, I promise to be a good husband and father to you and our son". Askara pulled Anin in his arms. Kissing the top of his wife's head was so happy many times.
Anin reciprocates Askara's embrace while praying inwardly for the integrity of her household.I hope Askara no longer destroys the trust she gives.
Sure, Askara can with his commitment?
