At 06:30 Aiman's father had arrived at Bella's house despite his promise at 07:00 WIB. Either because Aiman's father wants to meet with Mother Alya immediately or maybe Aiman's father is better to come earlier than late.
Bella welcomed her father's arrival with joy while her mother since dawn was visibly agitated.
At this moment Aiman and Bella's father were sitting while chatting on the terrace. Mother is still busy in the kitchen preparing a special fried rice Bella requests.
Usually Mother Alya can be fast in cooking especially just cooking fried rice. I don't know why today someone made it slow.
There are spices that are lacking, the ingredients there are those who forget to be prepared, suddenly forget where to store serving dishes.
At 7 o'clock the fried rice was finally served at the dining table. Aiman's father, Mother Alya and Bella sat together at the dinner table.
Usually Mother Alya never let male guests into her house unless there is an urgent need such as a home repairman or AC service.
Today Mother Alya invited Aiman's father to have breakfast together in the house.
In addition to fried rice Mother Alya also cook fried chicken, beef eye eggs and potato parchment.
Fried rice made by Mother Alya today looks more wah than usual. Beautifully arranged on a serving plate equipped with a neatly cut garrison.
Fried chicken pieces that are almost the same size with the color of the frying results that evenly look so tempting. Same with the potato parchment.
After praying together they began to eat the dishes. Only Bella and Aiman's father seem to talk a lot while Alya's mother only responds if asked.
There are families that make it a habit for family members to sit quietly without talking much while eating. While the Bella family, since Bella was a child when gathered at the dinner table was used to chat with each other, of course with a light-hearted and pleasant discussion.
After eating, Aiman's father sat back on the terrace. In front of him is now presented a cup of warm tea with added sugar cubes his favorite.
A few jars of cookies were also on the table. Favorite cakes. Apparently the ex-wife did not forget her favorite drinks and snacks.
Shortly afterwards Mother Alya came and immediately sat before Aiman's father. They look awkward. Bella who from earlier became a familiar mood builder chose to enter her room after previously cleaning the dining table and washing dishes.
Bella gives time for her parents to talk alone. Bella thinks there's something her parents want to talk to her father about but her mother doesn't want Bella to know about it.
"Thank you for the food, as usual your cooking is always good." Aiman's father's thanks and praise convey to Mother Alya.
"Sama-sama Mas," Mother Alya briefly replied.
"Bella called Mas again last night, Bella told me what you were talking about before."
Hearing that Mother Alya was not surprised, she had expected that Bella would tell her father.
Bella really intends to be the unifier of her two masters.
"Why can you think that Mas didn't love you all this time?"
"Why do you even think that Mas still loves Ratna?"
"Where is that thought?"
"Al, Mas admit Mas did make that mistake, but there is not the slightest intention of Mas to betray our marriage."
"Mas doesn't have any feelings for Ratna either."
"Why is it so hard for you to trust me?"
"So much disappointment are you the same Mas to the point that you completely close your heart to Mas."
"Bella said last night that you said you still love Mas, is that right?"
Mother Alya was still silent, from all the questions Aiman's father had not been answered.
"Al, what's the matter?"
"Mas, doesn't Mas still love Ratna so much?"
"Don't Mas just think of Me as a form of devotion Mas the same parents Mas and then Mas consider it a responsibility?"
"What do you mean?"
"Since Mas accepted our arranged marriage, Mas has been determined to erase all feelings of Mas to Ratna."
"Please don't lie, I know Mas still loves him."
"Know where Al was, before Mas was reunited with Ratna at that time, never once did Mas meet him."
"When he decided Mas, when he refused to fight with Mas and instead chose to marry the man of his father's choice, Mas had decided to erase his name in Mas's life."
"When Mas's parents intended to match us back, Mas asked God for guidance through Istikharah prayer, after which Mas's heart seemed to always be moved towards you."
"God seems to show this is the soul mate."
"Mas once dreamed you were smiling at Mas while holding a baby."
"Mas was sure it was a sign from God that Mas approved of our betrothal."
"And it turns out that Mas's choice is right, if Mas initially only interested in you but after we get married, the interest begins to develop into love."
"Mas is not doing anything, if Bella said it was combating, not Al, Mas serious."
"So that Mas forgot about Ratna and it didn't take long to feel love for me, Mas don't joke, I'm not an ABG child who easily believes such words."
"Al, you know what kind of person Mas is, Mas is trying to be a realistic man, when a woman voluntarily gives up Mas for the sake of other men, she said, I assume he doesn't think it's important anymore."
"When Mas is not considered what Mas still want to expect such a woman, of course not."
"Ego Mas obviously refused and Mas also thought he was created not for Mas, he only stopped for a few moments in Mas's heart before finally the owner of Mas's true heart came."
"And that woman you are Al, only you, from the past until now, maybe until later it will always be you."
"Yes..."
Mother Alya fell silent not continuing her words. What he heard directly from Aiman's father clearly made his heart unhinged.
What he had believed all along and what he had heard just now were very different.
"Please tell me honestly why you were so determined to ask Mas for divorce back then?"
"Mas knows you're disappointed in Mas but Mas also knows you're a loving and forgiving woman."
"Please Al, please tell me everything, please."
"Is there anything else that makes it so hard for you to forgive and accept Mas back?"
Mother Alya looked at her ex-husband, the sound of compassion and the hopeful gaze as if piercing her heart.
All right, this is the time when he'll say everything, everything he's been keeping up.
"Yes..."
