"I can see you here, In" said Viona.
Less than a year. After a long time Viona met Indi when she was about to divorce, and now she can meet again. Of course Viona was very happy. In addition, Indi also wants to know why Viona can be with Anthony. As far as Indi is concerned, his friend is divorced from Anthony.
"I didn't expect to see you here either. Right?" ask Indi.
"Very good."
"Together with him?" ask Indi lirih. He who is meant by Indi is certainly Anthony.
Viona then nodded her head. "Yes, just Co-Parenting, In. How does Arbe need his Mom and Dad, right?"
Indi nodded his head. He knows how couples who have divorced parents are often called Co-Parenting. They must work together to accommodate the needs of the child. Not infrequently must soften the ego, find a middle way to nurture his child.
"Oh ... Is it just Co-Parenting or is it possible to thrive?" ask Indi.
Viona then pressed her shoulders. "I don't know. I'm still traumatized, In. Building a house is not that easy. Moreover, I seem to be a victim of the affair of my husband and other women. I lost faith with men" Viona said.
Not exaggerating, but what Viona experienced was very natural. When after giving birth, her husband actually had a bed warmer woman until his son seemed to lose the fatherly figure of Anthony. Really slumped on their own in a fragile household.
Indi responded by nodding his head. It's not easy being Viona. Particularly taking a role in Co-Parenting with Anthony.
"I know, and may you always be strong and patient well, Vi," said Indi.
"Yes, Indi. I'm just trying to be strong and patient."
"How does it not involve the feeling of parenting Arbe, Vio?" ask Indi now.
Viona laughed first before answering a question from Indi. "You asked him to take a look at it. Yeah, trying to be professional, In. Overruling feelings. In the past, it was a different feeling well, but now also the shape has changed. Although it is not easy. At times, the pain still covers my heart" Viona replied.
"You're great to be able to live it all out for over a year" Indi replied.
"I'm holding out for Arbe, In. If I shut down communication access completely, Arbe would completely lose his Papa figure. In divorce people always say that the child is the victim. That's right, but how parents look for solutions, subduing their ego. Look, In ... Arbe's always happy to play with his Papa."
Indi turned his head and watched Anthony and Arbe for a moment. Indeed, in his heart there is pity when children do not have full parents. However, all decisions have risks.
"That's right, Vi. Hope you three have a good relationship. Everything is for Arbe well," Indi replied.
"Yes, a good relationship" Viona replied.
"Unreserved referring?" ask Indi.
Viona smiles. Before replying, Viona asked Indi. "If you were in my position, you would take advantage of the affair and accept your husband no more?"
Indi. Questions from Viona are hard to answer. The case study is also heavy.
"Weight, Vio. I don't know it myself either. However, I demand loyalty in the household. One for forever. However, when after the divorce, and there is a change in attitude or character, maybe I will think about the reference option. By mutual agreement of course."
No wonder actually. In Indi's own eyes Anthony changed. Back then, when he met Anthony when he was with Karina and now there's a change. Although actually Indi does not know the difference.
"Then, you?" ask Indi.
"I'm not ready yet. Just like I said before I was traumatized and afraid of being cheated on again. I'm starting to lose faith with men" Viona told me.
Indi nodded his head again. "People say, instead of starting with other people, it's better to refer to it anyway, Vio. Arbe must be hard to accept the presence of new people, he already knows who Mom and Dad are. A child with an age stage like Arbe will find it difficult to accept the presence of a new person, Vi."
Indi can say that because he reflects on his past. Born without a father, it is thought that he had no father. Since the baby, the figure that Indi saw as the father was Pandu's father only. When he was an adult and his mother told all the stories of the past including his origins alone made Indi shocked and difficult to accept the existence of Mr. Firhan.
Fortunately, Indi has good parents, who provide good upbringing and good demands as well. He was disappointed, but the relationship with his biological father was repaired.
"Yes, In. Pray for the three of us. I hope I don't take another wrong step" Viona said.
When someone has experienced failure in the past, they will be more careful. Have hope that every step he takes is not a wrong step. They will have more careful consideration.
"Whatever it is, I hope you and Arbe are happy, Vio. You deserve to be happy in your way" Indi replied.
Hearing what Indi said just now, Viona's two eyes glazed over. "That's what I always expected, Indi. I want to be happy. With or without Anthony, I'm gonna work on my happiness and Arbe's."
After much venturing together, Indi then introduced Viona to her parents and in-laws. Although for Rama Bima, he knew who Anthony was and felt less respect for the man. However, Rama Bima's heart softened to see Arbe. The little boy should deserve the role model of a good father. In addition, Rama Bima also salutes the way Viona and her ex-husband took care of Arbe together.
It is true that Viona confided to Indi before putting aside her feelings and past is not easy. Need to be professional. Although sometimes heartache every time looking at the face of our former partner.
"Family time is well. Sometime in the news. Let it be outing together," said Indi.
"Yes, Twins can also be played, right? Next time we go out. Let the kids play together" Viona replied.
After that, Indi continued with his extended family. Viona also enjoys family time and is Co-Parenting with Anthony.
"He's the one who cheated on Karina, right?" ask Rama Bima.
"Yes, Rama."
"Rama had seen the man's face in the newspaper at the time of his divorce. You guys know how Karina is doing now?" ask Rama Bima.
Indi and Satria shook their heads. "No idea, Rama."
"News from Atmaja, Karina contracted a venereal disease, syphilis that required her to seek treatment for up to two years. Now Karina lives abroad to heal her pain" said Rama Bima.
"Eat is important to be loyal to your partner. If it is not your partner who is halal, do not engage in forbidden relationships" said Ms Galuh.
Sometimes from the experience of others we can learn something. The importance of being loyal to a partner. Protect yourself from forbidden relationships. Only have a relationship with our partner that is halal.
