Dispute of the Heart (CALYA)

Selecting

In the eternal of two choices, Dirga tried to invite his mother and wife to speak well.

"Mom, calm down. Let's talk good. Calya, honey .. please listen ...."

Mrs Edy sat down with the chair there. While Calya still does not budge.

"Mom only wants you to be fair as a husband. Your second wife, Haira, is pregnant. He needs more attention. If it's just continuing with the first wife, it's not fair." Ms. Edy muttered.

"Adyl? This marriage is not purely of Dirga's desire. The family simply asked Dirga to help them and after that, the marriage bond would be broken. That's what they asked me." Calya replied to Ms. Edy.

"But the truth is that Haira is pregnant now. And the fetus it contains is the seed of Dirga. How do you think the kid could have been if they didn't do it on the basis of liking? Do you think Haira can rape Dirga?" deny Miss Edy again.

Calya's stunned. Her mother-in-law's words felt like a dagger stuck right in her heart. Calya's conscience confirmed the statement.

The sparkles in the poor woman's eyes asked her husband for an explanation. Calya stared fixedly at Dirga. And the man who got that look was now only able to bow down.

"If I want, I can report Dirga to his office because it is polygamous. And that means ... his career will be threatened ..." muttered Calya sharply.

"Calya!" Edy's mom snapped at Calya. "The Dirga is my son! He could be like this because we're his parents, not because of you! It's good you want to ruin his career. It's better for Dirga to divorce you!" continued.

Calya's eyes are round. He did not expect that his mother-in-law would say that. The woman now feels that she is truly unwanted. His pride has been lowered.

"Mother .. would Dirga divorce me?" Calya said softly.

"Yes!" exclaim Bu Edy.

"Mom!" Dirga who had been silent also spoke. "That's impossible, Dirga would never do that!" continued.

"You can't be fair, nor do you want to tell it. Then what?" Ms. Edy replied to Dirga's hardship.

"okay! Okay ... Dirga's coming to Surabaya tomorrow."

Dirga's words riveted Calya. Her husband would leave again, leaving her to go to his second wife.

***

This morning Dirga and her mother were preparing to leave. There was no chatter last night between Dirga and Calya. Their bed feels bland. Sleeping with each other back, plus the pain felt by each of their hearts.

Calya was still unmoved in the room. She could not see her husband's departure this time. Dirga was unable to say goodbye to his wife.

After a three-hour flight, the plane landed at Juanda Airport. Dirga and Ms. Edy had gotten off the plane and were now heading for the arrival exit.

In front of the arrival door, a woman was waiting with a face of sumringah. It was Haira who was going to pick up Dirga and her mother-in-law.

Seeing that Dirga's face had appeared, Haira's heart flushed. The streak of victory was engraved on her beautiful face. A single smile expanded, adding to his aura of happiness.

"Darling, look at your wife, Haira who picked us up" Ms. Edy said as she pointed at Haira.

"Mom asked her to come get us?" ask Dirga.

"Without being told Haira would definitely pick up. That's a good wife and daughter-in-law" said Ms. Edy as she continued to walk towards Haira.

"Alhamdulillah .. finally arrived. You're in good health, right?" haira asked Ms. Edy after they got to her place.

"Yes, Honey. I'll be fine, and so will Dirga" Ms. Edy said.

Dirga only replied to him with a flat smile.

"I'll miss it later. Now we go home first, yuk!" take Bu Edy while holding Dirga and Haira.

Arriving at the parking lot as Haira was about to head to the steering chair, Ms. Edy held her back.

"No, dear .. Let Dirga drive. You're pregnant again, you can't be soy sauce" Ms. Edy said.

"But Dirga is also tired after the trip, Mom," said Haira.

"If Dirga is ordinary. He's a stronger man" Ms. Edy said. After that he turned to Dirga, "Son, you drive!"

Dirga just nodded then headed to the steering chair. While Haira sat in the front seat, beside Dirga. And Miss Edy in the backseat.

A moment later Dirga also drove Haira's car to the house of Dirga's parents, namely Mr. Edy and Bu Edy.

Arriving at the house, they immediately entered the house. Dirga rushed into his room. But how shocked he was when he found items that did not belong to him in the room.

Women's bags, shoes, and cosmetics were scattered on each side of the room. Not to mention after she opened her closet and found a woman's clothes hanging there. Dirga had a right about Calya's clothes and belongings. And all this stuff doesn't belong to his wife.

"Since yesterday I moved here, Dir .. to welcome you and also serve you while here." The voice of a woman who entered the room made Dirga turn her head.

"I won't be here long. I was forced to come here so that Mom wouldn't make a fuss in the city where I work" muttered Dirga.

"You'll be here a long time, Dir .." said Haira.

"What do you mean, Ra? I work and I can't leave the office often, especially for a long time. Cutiku this year I have used all the time to comply with your request and your family before," said Dirga.

Haira stepped closer to Dirga. She gently rubbed her husband's chest and said, "The child I'm carrying needs her father to be around her."

Dirga tried to shake Haira's hand.

"That can't make an excuse for me to stay here for long. The duty of the state must be done" interrupted Dirga.

"My father is working on taking care of your move to this town."

Haira's words made Dirga turn to her spontaneously. A smile fell on Haira's lips, while Dirga looked at her questioningly.

"My father will do anything for my happiness ...," Haira continued.

"That's impossible, Haira. I just moved to that city a few months ago. It won't be that easy taking care of the move. I am the state apparatus, must obey on duty!" exclamation Dirga.

"Then ... I will move to your place" said Haira.

"What?! That's even more impossible ..." grumbled Dirga.

"A wife and child should be near her husband and father" Haira said.

Dirga exhaled a rough breath. He no longer knows what to say. Haira is too much now, but she can't afford to interrupt it anymore. The position of Haira who was pregnant with her child became the biggest dilemma that Dirga had to face. His parents are currently siding with Haira, while there Calya is alone facing her life now.
