Broken Glass

Chapter 30 (Ending)

Dayan finally handed over the keys to the house to doctor Rani and officially moved to the Point house. He lived alone there without a wife and children. Neighbors began to know what had happened to the Dayan and Bestari households. I don't know where the news is until they find out that Dayan has betrayed Bestari and has another wife. Not only neighbors, but also their relatives and friends.

Several times Bestari's relatives and friends asked her, she simply replied with a smile or had them ask Dayan directly. Bestari lazily had to explain what happened because it was also her disgrace. Want as much as they keep it, eventually it will open as well. Moreover, they no longer live. Every time there is a family event, they go alone.

Bestari was finally able to build her own house because her legacy land was sold. He was so grateful that when the disaster hit, there was good news coming. Her dream of living in a decent home will soon be realized. Not that shophouses are not worth living in, but if they have guests or family events so hassles because of the condition of the narrow room.

Bestari entrusted the construction of her home to the experienced Wildan. He was sure the glasses guy would not lie to him. From design to development, everything was handled by Wildan. Bestari just stay to say what kind of house and how much it costs, will be processed by Wildan. So, the mother of two children did not need to bother taking care of many things, just monitor the construction, pay, and receive the house keys when the house was finished.

Once Dayan knew that Bestari was building a house, every day he came to the shophouse. Coincidentally Bestari did make a house next to the shophouse. On the land that was actually purchased by Dayan, but handed over to him as compensation for the costs that Bestari had incurred to build their house first. Indeed, Bestari still asked for compensation to Dayan because he did not take it for granted that a house that had been built with difficulty had to be sold. Moreover, the money borrowed on loan sharks is used by Royani. Before deciding the house was sold, Bestari and Dayan did sign a letter of agreement if Dayan gave up his land to Bestari in exchange for gono gini.

Dayan intervened in the construction of the house to make Bestari inflamed.

"Sir, you've been silent do not need a lot of comments or ask for things. All I've handed over to Mas Wildan," exclaimed Bestari who was upset because of Dayan's governing attitude.

"I'll just allow the house to be good and strong. Not to arrange," said Dayan casually as usual. There is no guilt.

"If you ask for something else, it will change the cost. Already, don't fuck around anymore. If you want to see and supervise the development please, but do not interfere. You do not need to come here if only to make a mess," said Bestari who so often increased his emotions since the presence of Dayan.

The 42-year-old man took a deep breath. He thought it was done for Bestari's sake, but his wife blamed him instead. "Mom, how much is the total construction of his house?" ask when the situation has started to cool.

Bestari turned to Dayan with a fierce look. "Why do you wonder what to pay?" his challenge.

"I don't have any money, Mom. Anyway I'm still your husband, so I'm also curious about the construction of that house" Dayan said.

"Five hundred million. You do not have to take care of the construction of that house. You better take care of Royani who ran away," said Bestari with a ketus.

"I will take care of my money until I get back" Dayan said.

Bestari smiled cynically. "Yes, if you come back. That not?"

"I'm sure I'll be back. Royani has promised," replied Dayan confidently.

Bestari laughed a little. A more mocking laugh at her husband. "Father still believes in Royani? Better to come back with Royani there."

Dayan silent. I don't understand what Bestari said. I don't know what will happen later, but his intention is now to improve his relationship with Bestari and her two children. I hope they can regroup after the house is finished.

Time so quickly passed, Riri and Ratna had finally finished their graduation exam. Now they just have to wait for the announcement of graduation and the exit of test scores. Bestari is grateful that her two children are still diligent in learning even though their circumstances are not perfect as before. One night, Bestari asked her two children to speak from heart to heart.

"Riri, Ratna, I want to have a serious conversation with you two. You're both done for the graduation exam, I think it's a good time to talk." Bestari looked at her two hearts in turn.

"What the hell is it, Mom?" ratna asked who did not know the real problems in the household of her parents. He only knew that his mother was angry because her father borrowed money from loan sharks so had to sell their house. Meanwhile, Riri just kept quiet, because he had guessed that sooner or later everything must have happened.

"Riri, Ratna, I'm sorry for not being able to give the perfect family to you two. Mother and Father can not get back together again because the mother has been betrayed and can not trust again with the Father," said Bestari while holding her two hands sitting opposite her.

Ratna looked confused at her mother's words. "Do you mean you can't go back with you? Betray how, Mom? Did you cheat?" his pedicab.

Bestari took a long breath. "Whatever you've done, he's still your father. Until whenever your blood relationship will not be able to break even if you do not live together. Unlike the mother who can break the marriage relationship and maybe we even become friends or brothers after separating."

Bestari looked at Ratna in love. "I'm sorry I had to tell you this because I didn't want you to hear it from someone else. Actually you're married and have a wife other than mother."

"What's? You have another wife? It's impossible." Ratna shook her head repeatedly. I don't want to believe what my mother said. Although his father was not attentive, pushy, and always asked his mother for money, but the girl never expected his father to marry again.

Bestari smile. "Mom knows, it must be hard to believe, but I'm not lying, Ratna. If you don't believe ask yourself the same father. The house was used as collateral for loan sharks because you owe it to his young wife" he explained.

Ratna cried as soon as she heard Bestari's explanation. "Bad evil! I hate the Father! I don't want to see you again!" he screamed in a cry.

The 13-year-old girl was so shocked to hear such a painful reality. Not just for him, but for the three of them. Especially the mother who clearly felt a great pain. He just understood why his mother just delivered now. Surely his mother was afraid that if she knew what was happening before the graduation exam, her concentration would be scrapped at the thought of her parents.

Bestari immediately hugged the crying Ratna. He also silently shed tears. "I'm sorry, mother" he said softly while stroking the youngest daughter's back. For a while, the mother and child hugged each other. Bestari unraveled the embrace after Ratna calmed down.

"Mother will file for divorce and part with Father, but you will still be our shared responsibility. You want to be with mom or dad after we split, that's what you decide. Even though mom and dad are separated, but mom will still love and love you as always. Maybe even more because you are the one who is now a passion for working mothers," said Bestari while looking at her two daughters in turn. "You're allowing 'wouldn't you be divorced from you?"

Riri and Ratna looked at each other for a while. They both nodded at each other.

"If you're happier and calmer without you, I agree, Mom. I don't want Mom to be cheated on. I'm also heartbroken with you." Riri issued his opinion first.

Bestari breathed a sigh of relief. A smile expands perfectly on his lips. "Thank you for letting my mom part with me. Not that selfish mothers only attach importance to the wishes of their own mothers, but as you know, every mother and father meet, we must always fight. I don't want you to hear or see our fights all the time. That's really not a good thing."

"Yes, Mom. We understand that. To be honest with us, especially I was sad every time I heard or saw Father and Mother fighting. Our lives are also quieter here without hearing the quarrel of Mother and Father. Even if you come here, we still hear arguments, but not every day." Riri revealed what she had felt all along.

Bestari's heart was pinched hearing the elder princess's words. It turns out that all this time without realizing it, he and Dayan have hurt their children. "I'm sorry for mom and dad if they've hurt your heart all along. We often unconsciously fight in front of you."

"Mother is not wrong. It is the father who often starts fights," said Riri.

"I'm sorry for the mother and father who can't be perfect parents for you. Cannot provide togetherness like other families. Forgive all our shortcomings that cannot give you happiness as a perfect family. I'm sorry if you'll be asked or ridiculed because mom and dad are separated." Bestari continued to apologize to her two daughters for feeling so guilty about them.

Divorce is other than because of Dayan's fault, of course, it has become the destiny of the Almighty. Before making a unanimous decision to divorce, Bestari had asked God for guidance to be shown the best way for them. God hates divorce, but God allows it. Taking into account the difference between good and harm, it turns out that there are more harm. Not good for the mental health of their children.

After talking to the children and getting permission from them, Bestari contacted a lawyer to take care of her divorce lawsuit with Dayan. He prepared a KTP, Family Card and also a marriage book. Everything else will be prepared by his lawyer. Of course the lawsuit material matches what Bestari told the lawyer.

Dayan was surprised when he heard a subpoena from the Religious Court because during the meeting with Bestari, his wife never talked about whether to sue for divorce. He thought the relationship was okay. They also rarely fight and are more silent when they meet. Dayan immediately met Bestari after reading the call letter.

"Mom seriously going to sue for divorce?" dayan asked as soon as he met Bestari without caring about anyone else there.

"Yes. We'd better talk inside, not here" replied Bestari coldly. He entered the shophouse and sat in the multipurpose room. Dayan also followed the woman who is still his wife.

"Why didn't you tell me you were going to sue for divorce? We'll be able to talk about this in a good way first, not play back like this. I said I wouldn't divorce Mom either" Dayan protested.

Bestari smiled cynically. "What do I say to you, Father, you don't want to either? Just like when you married Royani without saying the same to me. There is nothing to talk about anymore everything is clear. If you don't want to divorce me, that's up to you. I'd say everything including faking my signature. If I need to report to the police. To this day I do not accept my signature being faked. Let Mr and Royani both go to prison" threatened Bestari.

"Don't you also benefit more if we divorce? You can return with Royani and legally marry. Can be facialized and creambated every day without having to pay. Even served more than that. You no longer need to collect money because it is also used by the wife of the Father who is now either where? In fact, a few months have passed without any progress, right?" Bestari stared intently at her husband. If killing was not a sin, it would have been killed by the man who had hurt him so much and lowered his pride.

"Did Mom threaten and mock me?" Dayan looked back at his wife with a pitiful look.

"If you don't want to divorce me, I have to. Do I need to open up all the things you do? You never give a living and always depend on me. But behind me had another wife and instead gave her a living just as she was even willing to sacrifice the house for her sake. Father and he also dared to forge my signature," said Bestari furious. His chest rose and fell rapidly due to the emotions he felt. "Father has really stepped on my pride, and I don't accept being treated that way."

Bestari took a deep breath before returning to speak. "I've given up a lot along the way, Father. I kept quiet even though you never gave me money. I am willing to pay for the needs of the house and also the children. Sometimes you ask for money just like me. Is it less that I am the same father? I have refrained from reporting you to the police in order to keep the hearts of children so as not to be ashamed of having a father a fraud. If you insist, what can you do. I'm gonna do it. And remember, sir, never ask for treasure. Everything here I bought with my money. If you ask me for anything and complicate the divorce, I will definitely take action that will humiliate you." Bestari brought out whatever was on her mind. He would no longer tolerate Dayan because his heart and mind were tired. It had been enough all this time that he had been quiet and relented.

Dayan was silent after Bestari revealed all Dayan's faults and the contents of Bestari's own heart. He cannot and cannot repay his wife. The man was well aware of his mistake which was indeed very fatal and difficult to forgive. If anyone is willing to forgive, maybe the woman has a very noble heart and patience as wide as the ocean. And, Bestari was just an ordinary woman who could no longer trust her husband.

Assalamu'alaikum.

Thank God, finally finished also writing a story that is quite emotionally draining. Hopefully what is presented in this story can be learned.

Never betray someone who has worked hard for us. Even if we are chained, do not be too late in sadness. Move on soon because there's something better for us up front.

Appreciate and respect those around you who have helped and supported us a lot.

Do not use religion to do something controversial (such as polygamy) if you do not have sufficient knowledge and ability.

Thank you to those who read this story from beginning to end. Sorry if you get carried away by emotions because the storyline is annoying. That's how it is.

My three stories that are here have all ended, so I no longer have dependents.

Thank you for reading 'Senior Junior Love Romance', 'Senior Halal Love', and 'Broken Glass'. Sorry if I had to hang the story because of busyness in the neighboring house. See you again in my next story, either here or in the neighbors.
