First Wife Heart Wound

Divorced

Hanum waited anxiously, it was evident from his hands that did not stop squeezing each other.

Until the grasp in his hand, averted his mind for a moment. Ardi clasped Hanum's hand tightly, as if he was channeling strength through the grasp, Hanum smiled and nodded reassuringly that everything would be fine.

Hanum arrived at the religious court ahead of schedule, not because he was in a hurry to get a divorce. It's just that the distance of the house and the court is quite far if taken by riding a motorcycle. Especially if the streets are jammed, chances are Hanum can be late to come.

The clock shows at nine over thirty minutes and the schedule of his divorce trial at ten in the morning. There was still time for Hanum to calm down before sitting in the sickle seat for any couple who decided to split up.

The sound of the knocking of the shoes clashed against the floor, momentarily distracting Hanum. He knew clearly whose footsteps were walking towards him. Hanum's heart beat faster when he saw the man standing not far from his seat.

For a moment their eyes collided, saying that many longs were forced to be restrained because of circumstances that were not possible, to return together to share feelings.

That sad look, representing all the feelings of the man who was now beginning to take a seat, in the front seat of his woman sat down.

"How are you?" sapanya friendly.

"Thank God be healthy, you alone?" ask Hanum back.

Although without being asked, Hanum clearly saw that the man who would soon become the ex-husband, looked unkempt with a slightly thin face. "Are you unhappy, Mommy?" hanum murmured in the heart.

"Hm, I'm fine!" say Inspiration, "But not with my heart after without you!" he continued in his heart.

"Alhamdulillah then!"

While asking the news, appeared both Ilham's parents and his wife who suddenly joined them.

"Braggu!" call Mrs Suryo.

"Mama!"

Bu Suryo walked over and hugged Hanum tightly, a soft sobbing began to sound on the sidelines of the embrace. "Mom miss you?" lirih.

Hanum was powerless not to shed tears, "Hanum is also Ma, Mama is right?" asked Hanum while parsing his embrace.

"Num's healthy, how come you never called Mama?"

"Alhamdulillah Hanum is also healthy Ma, Hanum now has his own busyness Ma so it is starting to rarely have time!"

"Alhamdulillah at least you do not continue to linger in sorrow."

"Yes, Ma."

Hanum's gaze moved to her father-in-law who was also present at her divorce hearing. With a smile Hanum also approached the father-in-law, not forgetting he kissed the reverence of the hand of the person who had given him affection just like his own biological child.

Mr. Suryo nodded without saying a word, only a hand rub that was always in the head of the former daughter-in-law.

Ardi who saw also approached and kissed the reverence of the hands of his brother's former in-laws, as a form of courtesy.

Silence was created for a while, before the incoming calls for Ilham and Hanum sounded.

Both, followed by their respective families enter not least with the amel that also entered, watching the divorce process of the husband with his first wife.

Both of them sat in the hospital seat, as the court judge read out the lawsuit filed by Ilham. There was a rustling feeling when Hanum heard what the judge said. But the tears did not come down, though the memory of the story that had passed back in and danced in his mind.

Ilham stood up as the judge asked her to pronounce talaq for Hanum. And with a palpitating sense, Ilham said a word that did not want to be said and even heard anyone who really did not want to end his marriage.

After saying the word talak Ilham sat back down, he tried to wipe away the tears that wanted to come out as hard as he tried to resist.

Hanum smiled bitterly, his marriage with the husband foundered today. But destiny is at play and hopefully this can be a new beginning for him.

The judge legalized her divorce and when Ilham stood up to Hanum to shake hands, Hanum did not respond and he only cupped his hands together in the chest.

Ah Ilham forgot, now he is no one in the life of this woman in front of him. Ilham seemed to forget his efforts first to get a Hanum, a beautiful girl with a sweet smile but difficult to approach. Even at this moment after the word talaq was spoken from his lips, Hanum again lowered his gaze, unwilling to look at it.

Seeing no reaction from Hanum, Ilham approached his parents. There was a sad face, as Bu Suryo stared at the lethargic face of Ilham. "Patience, hopefully this is enough to give you experience in living the household" said Bu Suryo corroborated.

Hanum was silent for quite a while in his chair, a sudden headache struck, making him unable to return the greeting of Inspiration.

And it did not escape his sister's attention. Ardi rushed over to Hanum who was still sitting in his patient seat.

"Mom!" call Ardi and touch his shoulder.

Hanum turned his head and smiled, as if to say that everything was fine.

"Come on!" bring Ardi.

Hanum stood up as the pain in his head slightly lessened, he walked with the faithful Ardi holding his hand.

Until the voice of someone calling out to him, stopped those slightly limped footsteps.

"Hanum … !"

Hanum stopped and turned his head, as the man who had just become his ex-husband came to him.

"What's up, Mom?" ask Hanum.

"I'd like to talk to you for a second, would you?" her door.

Ardi stood in front of Hanum, blocking Ilham who wanted to talk to the older brother.

"Speaking with me?" said Ardi.

"But it's important Ardi and I want to speak with your brother's eyes!"

"Why is it different from my sister? I forgot that the one who used to be my marriage guardian was me! so before Mas talks to Hanum, Mas talks to me first."

The tongue of Inspiration, even children who are still in high school alone, is wiser than him.

"Mas forgot the promise that Mas had said before, before marrying mbak hanum. Even long before you married my sister, I told you! if there is no love for my sister, give her back to me without hurting her heart and feelings! even I can still make her happy without hurting her one bit."

Hanum's tears trickled down hearing her mere puppet sister's words. Hanum never thought that his sister had grown up until he could make her speechless.

Inspiration was increasingly fixated on hearing the words of his sister-in-law, even he was still defeated in making Hanum happy. And only the pain that has been incited in the heart of the woman who was once his wife.
