But not Me

Negotiating

"Why are you here?"Dara was shocked when she just opened her eyes, Bagas was in front of her, the peia was sitting on the edge of the bed with eyes that were staring at her intensely.

"You missed your lunch, I couldn't bear to wake you up, because you seemed so tired, but it's almost afternoon, you have to eat, and you've had a vitamin schedule."

"You guys?" dara's great-grandson frowned.

"Yes, you and him," pointed Bagas at Dara's distended stomach.

Dara just threw away her lazy gaze, she did not want to be fooled by Bagas' sweet treatment on her which could have been just pretending.

"I'm just pregnant, not disabled, I can and have gotten used to doing everything myself, don't be happy, sir!" said Dara ketus, while seizing the plate in the grip of Bagas who had just lifted a spoon to feed his wife.

There was no resistance from Bagas other than just continuing to succumb and receive the careless and cynical treatment of his wife to him. Bagas realized that his treatment of Dara earlier was even more painful and more evil than that, so just assume he was reaping bad karma for what he did to his wife.

"Let me do it alone, sir can go and do the usual activities, no need to bother looking after me." Said Dara expel Bagas so as not to continue to stick to him.

"I don't feel the hassles of looking after my wife and children, after all I can do my work from home" I Bagas.

"Master, let's clarify our relationship!" Dara stopped her eating and put the plate that still contained half of her food.

Dara looked at Bagas face seriously, she was aware and very aware that Bagas was still her husband, but, for all that Bagas had done to her in the previous time, she was still in the same position, making himself hateful to the father of his son, Bagas' treatment of him was already at the limit of reasonableness and trampled on his pride as a woman and as a wife, so it doesn't seem easy for Dara to be ordinary again to Bagas as if nothing happened, it feels impossible.

"First of all, our marriage was forced, precisely because you forced me, and of course there was no love between the two of us, so don't be as if we were a normal married couple, because our marriage was started with an abnormality." said Dara.

"Okay, I was wrong. I'm also sorry for what happened to us before, I just want to fix everything, because believe it or not, honestly I'm starting to realize that I actually love you." Bagas slightly stammered his confession.

"Sir, how can I believe in your words, where is there anyone who loves but hurts? Please don't fool me, even though in your eyes I may be a stupid woman." Dara was convinced by his opinion that Bagas was currently only fooling him so that he collapsed and was trapped in his complicated life again.

"But this is what I honestly feel, I love you and want to fix everything" Bagas did not want to give up on his mission to convince his wife of his feelings.

Dara took a deep breath, inhaling as much oxygen as possible so that she could think sanely in the face of this strange enough situation, how can Bagas suddenly express his love after all the chaos he caused.

Of love? Since when? Didn't he often say that he was not the type of woman in his tribe, muttered Dara inwardly sneering.

"Sir, may I be honest with you? From the beginning I did this marriage because I was forced and felt trapped by your ruse that used my parents, and to be honest I never loved you even until this moment, she said, and as information I also do not intend to try or try to love you, how can we continue the household? So I beg you, let me go, please divorce me sir, this is for our common good, I will not hold any grudges against you anymore and you may also meet our son at any time, he said, but please, set me free!" please Dara, her words are straightforward and clear even very firmly say about her who is not interested in continuing the marriage relationship with Bagas.

It feels like being thrown from the roof of a very high building, after before Bagas felt very happy because he was finally able to meet and gather again with his wife and prospective children, he said, but now he was forced to feel a deep disappointment because it turns out Dara does not want to live together again with him, even Dara also asked for something that he could not possibly grant, namely divorce, divorce, mana might agree to Dara's request that will make him lose his wife forever.

"Master?" Call Dara when Bagas is just silent with his blank and pusher gaze towards that plain whitewashed wall.

"Emhhh, do you really want a divorce from me? Would you be so happy if you got away from me?" lirih Bagas, it feels hard to question this to his wife, because it seems like the answer Bagas already knows what.

"Hem" Dara nodded confidently, according to what she had guessed in her mind.

"Alright, I will grant your request, but on the contrary, I also want you to grant my request," said Bagas in the end.

"You're a real businessman, you never want to lose, tell me, if I can I'll agree to it." cynical Dara.

"Because we can't get divorced while you're pregnant, then I'll divorce you two months after giving birth."

"Why wait two months? After giving birth, can we get divorced?" dara's protest that felt it was too long, two months after giving birth means about three months from now, because her gestational age is now 8 months.

"Wait a minute, I'm not done talking, I want to take care of you for the last month of your pregnancy and accompany your delivery later, I also want to feel the care of our child together for two months only, I want to take care of you, after that I will grant your request to divorce you, how, do you agree?" fresh Bagas.

It's a little hard for Dara to agree, but it seems like this is the only way to escape the snare of her marriage with this very unhappy Bagas, it seems inevitably, he said, like not like Dara must agree to Bagas' proposal, is not the opportunity not always come twice?

"Okay, but I want a black-and-white agreement on our deal, I don't want it to be just your wits and after three months you're not divorcing me." With a very heavy heart Dara agreed to her husband's request, but she also must not be off guard, she must be worried about all the bad possibilities that will happen, he said, the letter of agreement was the solution that was currently in his head.

"The banner will make a letter of agreement to the deal. Oh yes, there is one more, we will register our marriage legally tomorrow." continued Bagas again.

"What do you mean, sir? Aren't we getting a divorce? why even register our marriage legally!" Sewot Dara who feels nothing like Bagas already wants to play with her, they married in series, like, divorce should be easier because Bagas enough to say the word talak already then it has finished their relationship, while if their marriage is legally recorded the country will be more complicated and time-consuming if they will divorce, does Bagas deliberately want to fool him? Kesal Dara.

"Wait a minute, listen to my explanation until it's finished, we will still divorce according to our agreement, regarding the filing of our marriage registration legally, it's just for the recording of our child's deed later, we will still divorce according to our agreement, regarding the filing of our marriage registration legally, it's just for the recording of our child deed later, I don't want our son to be bullied just because his birth certificate doesn't say his father's name, and it will make it easier to take care of the letters he needs him in the future, like school and so on," explained Bagas, until finally there was no more protest from Dara, he seemed to understand and understand that it was all done for the sake of their child later, he said, for a while Dara believed Bagas' good intentions.

Of course, Dara also wants her child just like other children and does not want to be a victim of bullian just because of the selfishness of her who does not want to marry officially with Bagas, Bagas, he'll approve all this for his son's sake.

"Okay, I agree, don't forget I asked for black over white!" said Dara reminded once again of Bagas as if to show that he really does not believe in Bagas.

"Yes, I immediately contacted Panji, do we need to make it in the presence of a notary and a lawyer so that you are more sure?" seductive Bagas with a smile that Dara had never seen in her entire life with her husband, a smile that illustrates that she is currently very happy.

"No need, wearing a stamp is enough!" ketus Dara who snatched again the plate containing food that lived half that, after negotiating very hard with her husband earlier, her stomach became hungry again, what else was she was not full enough when she stopped eating.
