Behind Aisha's Veil

Behind Aisha's Veil
Chose?



Alvian stepped into the Hospital in a hurry, while Aisha followed behind him.


They finally arrived at a room, greeted by the mother who immediately hugged her son and daughter-in-law alternately.


"Said the doctor, your father had a mild heart attack."


Alvian went straight to his father who was lying weakly on the bed. He saw that his father was asleep.


"The doctor said it was better" said the mother approaching her son.


"I'll see the doctor first, Mom, I want to know more details about my father's true condition" Alvian said.


Alvian left the room, while Aisha approached her father-in-law and sat down beside him.


Aisha massages Dad's legs slowly, while talking to his mother-in-law.

"Where are you?" ask Anita on the other end of the phone.


"Suddenly my father was sick, so I went home" replied Alvian after he met the doctor who handled his father.


Anita fell silent.


"Why?" ask Alvian wonder.


"There's something I want to talk to you about" Anita replied in seriousness.


"What about?"


"It's important."


"I couldn't leave my sick father, so I applied for leave just now, about three more days I'll be back in town."


"alright. I'll be there."


Alvian was silent for a moment and did not immediately agree.


"What problem do you want to talk about?"


"Our relationship" replied Anita slowly.


"Why our relationship?" ask Alvian curiously.


"Just wait for me. We're talking directly."


"All right."


Alvian immediately hung up on her while wondering what exactly Anita wanted to talk to her.


Lately he saw that Anita's attitude had indeed changed a little to him, tending to be more silent and even avoid him. Alvian remembers for sure that Anita's change in attitude happened after she met Aisha.


Alvian who walked while half daydreaming did not realize that he had reached the nursery of the father, he immediately saw Aisha who was sitting next to her father.


His father, who was apparently awake, was being given a drink by Aisha.


Alvian immediately approached the two. He immediately asked his father's condition which was answered by the father if his condition was better.


"Where's mom?" ask Alvian to see Aisha.


"He went home first, there were some things to take," Aisha replied as she wiped the corner of her father-in-law's wet lips. After that Aisha looked to massage back her in-laws' legs slowly.


"Thank you, son," I was moved that Aisha was taking such good care of him. Alvian is shocked to see Aisha taking care of her father with all her heart, remembering that she never treated Aisha well.


"I've seen the doctor who treated me, he said if my condition continues to improve I can go back home in two or three days."


"The doctor also said if the father's heart disease relapses again, because from now on the father should be more health-conscious."


Suddenly the door was knocked.


Aisha immediately woke up when she saw that her parents were also Kak Ahmad, her oldest brother. They immediately came to know if the iron was sick and hospitalized.


Aisha who was so happy immediately kissed her hands and hugged Ummi and Abah, as well as her sister. His longing for both parents because it had been almost two months not met, he overflowed by hugging the two tightly.


After that, Abah immediately approached his friend and asked him how he was doing.


"Honestly, I'm afraid that if I die before I can hold my granddaughter" said Dad, instantly making everyone comfort him.


Another case with Aisha and Alvian who even look at each other to hear the words of the father.


"Ane prayed that God would not call you before you had the trouble of taking care of your grandchildren" Abah joked.


Everyone chuckled, except Aisha and of course Alvian.


"So. Are there any signs?" asked Kak Ahmad to see Aisha.


"Yes. It's been two months since you've been married." Ummi held Aisha's hand.


Aisha just shook her head while trying to smile.


"Not Ummi," replied Aisha slowly.


Alvian could only lower his head. Mothers who know the true state of their household can only fall silent.


"Propsy. Abah pray that soon you both will be given the trust in the form of descendants who pray and pray."


Everyone guarantees. Increasingly make Aisha's heart pilu.

"After your father-in-law recovers, stay at home one night, your sister Maryam misses you so much" she said as they walked to the car park.


"Yes mother, I have to ask my husband for permission first."


"Take your husband to stay there too" said the mother again while riding in the car.


Aisha nodded. After experiencing everything, Aisha waved at the passing car leaving the parking lot.


Aisha walks back into the lobby of the Hospital, thinking about many things, especially the father-in-law who seems to have expected the presence of a grandchild.


He walked down the corridor after corridor still with many things he thought, until accidentally at the end of the quiet corridor, he saw Alvian who was standing with a woman.


Aisha then finds out that the woman is Anita. Both of them seemed busy talking seriously.


Aisha did not want to disturb, she immediately turned her body but too late because her presence was already known by Anita.


"Aisha. Wait a minute, you happen to exist, we have to talk three." Anita calls Aisha while walking towards her.


Alvian immediately holds Anita's hand, asking her not to invite Aisha into their problems.


Aisha glimpsed at the hand of the husband on Anita's arm, immediately she turned her face away.


Anita brushed off Alvian's hand, walked back to Aisha and held her hand and pulled her closer to Alvian.


"Now you have to choose. Him or me." Anita looked at Alvian's face with sangar.


"You know that if she had called me a snatch of people's husbands, I was so offended that in reality she was the one who had snatched you from me" Anita pointed at Aisha in great anger.


Aisha releases her hand from Anita's.


"He. He's just his body and mouth covered but his mouth is not guarded, you know these few days I've thought of all his words that have insulted me."


Alvian was silent, he knew that if Anita was very emotional at the moment, he knew that the only thing she had to do was listen to her words without interrupting.


Likewise with Aisha who was quiet relaxed when Anita repeatedly insulted and pointed at her.


"So it's time for you to choose, choose him or me."


"If you choose him, our relationship only gets here, never call and see me again, but if you choose me. Quickly divorce her!" Anita again pointed at Aisha.


"Anita I ..." Alvian looked confused.


"If you're confused about choosing between him or me, I'll help you. I'll help by resigning because I'm not an option. Especially if it has to be aligned with him. Sorry our levels are different."


Anita straightened her eyes.


"Asking a man's husband to choose between himself and his legal wife, it is obvious that only an undignified woman can do so,"
