Between Me and You

C13. Anan's Decision

Anan leaves Ratna and her father, preferring to work instead of having to listen to Ratna's cries and her father's requests that her remain Ratna's husband.

Anan is disappointed in the attitude of his father who still imposes his will to keep Ratna as Anan's wife, even though his father knows the law is illegal if Anan marries Ratna who is pregnant, who is pregnant, son of another man.

Anan ruffled his hair when he arrived at the residence of Seara, Seara who was just out of the house saw Anan who looked chaotic that morning was feeling pity.

It has been almost a week Seara deliberately avoid Anan, and it turns out it just makes her not feel better than when He was with Anan.

The beautiful woman missed her husband Anan. Missed everything about her. Seara rushed back into the house, and this time her goal was the kitchen to make Anan a cup of tea.

" drink. You look messed up this morning "Seara said then put the cup of tea on the table on the terrace.

" Thank you Miss "Anan replied who was still flinching in her sitting. Seara pulled the bench and placed it in front of Anan, then sat opposite Anan.

Anan raised his face which had just looked down. Seara smiled slightly as her and Anan's gaze met.

" What's up? " Tanya Seara, Anan looked at Seara softly, then said "I miss you Miss, "Anan's words made Seara's face blush.

If you can honestly want her taste she voiced the word "I also miss you "out loud in front of Anan. But that speech could only be shouted in Seara's heart.

" What should I do, if it turns out that the woman I married was pregnant with a child from another man? "

" What do you mean?. You accuse me __ "

" Of course the woman is not Miss, even if Miss is pregnant it is definitely a child I am not the son of another man " Said Anan who immediately cut off Seara's speech.

" Ratna, She was already pregnant before I said "She said Anan disappointed, and it made Seara disappointed because Seara thought Anan loved Ratna, so now Anan is disappointed because it turns out Ratna is pregnant with another man and not Anan.

" And you're disappointed that it turns out that she's pregnant with another man's child, not yours? " Anan shook his head answering the question.

" I'm thankful that Ratna never conceived my child. I was only disappointed in Father who knew from the beginning that Ratna was pregnant, but still forced me to keep marrying Ratna. Even Dad asked Me to keep Ratna as my wife ". Anan.

" And what will you do? " Task Seara

" I don't know "Anan shook his head.

" Whatever decisions you make, as much as possible do not let Dad down. "

" By keeping Ratna as wife? " Seara shrugged her shoulders, "Harm law is marrying a woman who is pregnant, let alone pregnant from another man" Anan said as if affirming that He would end his marriage with Ratna.

" Then invite Brother Andi to meet with Father, to explain the law of your marriage and Ratna now. If Dad still insists on keeping you guys maintaining the marriage, then you are the one who must decide to continue or end your marriage "Seara's greeting makes Anan nod slowly.

" But today there was a meeting with Mr. Vishnu "Anan held back Seara's steps by holding Seara's right wrist.

" There is Risa who will accompany "Seara said.

" No need, let Me alone accompany "Anan rushed up from his seat and stood beside Seara without letting go of his grasp.

" Yes, we just go to the meeting place" Anan nodded in agreement to Seara's words.

After picking up the bag and some meeting files, Seara and Anan left for a meeting place at a restaurant that provides typical Nusantara food.

After traveling almost an hour and a half, they arrived at the restaurant that became Vishnu's choice to meet Seara.

Vishnu's smile immediately faded when he saw Anan who walked in tandem with Seara, Vishnu's gaze diverted to the hands of Anan and Seara who grasped each other and looked friendly when chatting when entering the restaurant.

" Good afternoon Mr. Vishnu, sorry we were late "Sapa Seara when he arrived at the table that had been reserved by Vishnu.

Anan pulled the bench for Seara to sit on, and then sat her body next to Seara.

" It's okay Bu Seara, I also happen to be new to "Say Vishnu.

The three of them had a meeting until lunch. Vishnu invites Seara and Anan to lunch, but they refuse him, because Seara will accompany Anan to meet Andi to discuss the marriage law of Anan and Ratna.

After saying goodbye to Vishnu and traveling for an hour and a half, they arrived at Andi's residence, coinciding with Andi who also just returned home to pick up Yulia practice in a clinic owned by Yulia which is not far from their housing complex.

Seara deliberately asked for help from Muni to make lunch and took her to the house of Yulia and Andi, because Seara and Anan will eat lunch at Yulia's house, while talking about the problems that Anan is facing.

The conversation began after they finished lunch and performed the zhuhur prayer together with Andi as his Imam.

" There are 4 Schools that discuss the Law of Married Pregnant, each School has the opinion of each "Andi paused his speech.

" The first opinion of the Hanafiyyah Madzhab still has differences of opinion, including: Marriage remains valid, whether with men who are pregnant or not. Legal marriage on condition that it must be with a male who is impregnated, and should not be in cuddles unless it has given birth. You can marry someone else as long as you have given birth. Can the original marriage has passed the menstrual period and holy, and when married then it should not be forgotten unless it has passed the time istibro’ ."

" The second opinion of Malikiyyah, is not valid marriage except with men who impregnate it and this must qualify, which must repent first. "

" The third opinion of Imam Shafi’i more loosely. That does not mean that zina is legal. That is a false presumption, because any adultery is already cursed. Imam Shafi’i said, “If one man steals fruit from one tree, when it is haram. Then he bought the tree, so is the fruit still haram or is it halal ? It is halal. It was haram then married well then it became halal”. But so as not to misunderstand - is he free from the sin of adultery or is he free from the wrath of God? NO. NOPE. That was in terms of law. In the view of this madzhab, the adulterous woman does not have an iddah, but if the marriage takes place, then the marriage remains valid."

" The fourth opinion of Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal which states that it is not permissible to marry a pregnant woman because of adultery with a man until she gives birth to her womb. "

" Now from the four Schools that you have mentioned earlier, guess whose opinion has been your grip all this time? "
