Honey Two Love
A Request
"Open the door, Rachel!!" pinta Ardi's.
Rachell ignored him. Many times Ardi knocked on the door, Rachell remained silent without a sound.
"Rachell ...!!!" Ardi raised his voice.
"Go, Ardi. I don't want to see you. I hate you, Ardi"
"Rachell ... Stop like that Rachell. What else do I have to do to wake you up Rachell. I used to ask you to quit your glamour world, stop wearing those inappropriate clothes, you refused. You're right, women are free to wear whatever they like, but a good man will forbid you from wearing revealing clothes, because no matter how bad the man will certainly not willing the woman to be a spectacle of other men. I refused your request to remarry for whatever reason, because I realized I wasn't able to deal with all of this. I haven't been able to be fair to both of you, to you and to Tania. I don't want to hurt either of you, Rachell. But you still force me to do it. Then what else should I do. All your requests I have granted. You only think about your own heart. You hurt me, Rachell. You hurt me too much" Ardi said at length.
"I'm thinking about everything right now, thinking about my mistake in accepting your papa's request to marry you. But when that regret came, it was too late. All I can do now is survive. Surviving your selfishness, surviving among Tania's sorrows. For God's sake, Rachell ... If this self had no faith, I might have ended my life a long time ago" Ardi began to despair of the behavior of his first wife. He was really at a point that made him very uncomfortable.
"Think of my words, Rachell" pinta Ardi.
Ardi took his car keys and left Rachell alone in his apartment. I don't know where Ardi was going that night. He drives his car around aimlessly. For a long time he did. Until he stopped his car in a quiet and quiet place. He was just sitting behind the wheel. Shut up without doing anything. Until he fell asleep and spent the night in the car alone.

The shining morning sun warms the entire earth, everyone has been struggling with his activities that day. But Tania is still reluctant to get out of her bed. He hugged his favorite roll tightly. This lazy feeling attacked him again, it felt like he wanted to be like that all day without doing anything.
Gts ... Gts ...
The sound of knocking on the door sounded. Nia opened her eyes. She lazily went to the bathroom and washed her face. Then take her veil.
Gts ... Gts ...
The sound of that knocking was heard again. Nia rushed to open the door.
Keekkk ...
"Good afternoon, Miss Tania?" Alfian stood at the door.
"Good day, sorry who are you? What's the need?" ask Tania politely.
"I'm sorry if my arrival interferes with your activities. Meet Alfian Fernando, Rachel Fernando is my youngest daughter"
Suddenly Nia felt her whole body turn cold, her heart jumping around, she was very unsettled and uncomfortable to see Alfian's presence before her.
"Can we talk for a second?" pinta Alfian is polite.
"Please enter" said Nia.
Alfian smiled. He sat cross-legged on the floor. The room did not have a proper guest seat to welcome him. But he was calm and used to dealing with all that. Alfian looked deeply at the faces of the two daughters-in-law. He found shade and tenderness from within Tania. As a man he finally understood why Ardi felt comfortable to be on the side of the second woman. Alfian smiled.
"Not to think about it, sir. As a woman, I know how she feels. But honestly I can not lie to myself when my feelings for Mas Ardi began to grow" explained Tania.
"It wasn't your fault. It is a destiny you cannot refuse. It's just that I'm asking you very much, to be patient and hold back temporarily until Rachell's emotions stabilize again. I know it must be hard for you to live this life alone. But I'm sure Ardi also understands the condition of the three of you. Stay away from Ardi for a while, until everything is under control. So I beg for your heart's greatness, Miss"
Tania looked at Alfian, she tried to digest what Alfian's words meant to her. His heart heard her husband's in-laws. Nia tried to hold back her tears, she did not want to show her weakness before Alfian.
"I'll excuse you then, miss. Good afternoon" Alfian said goodbye and went straight into his car.
Nia stared at Alfian's departure until the car disappeared at the end of the road. And he could no longer hold back his tears as he entered and closed the door of his room. There was a sense of sadness and pain that enveloped his entire heart back then. His desperation and helplessness towards all this. It filled his small lungs.
"Mas Ardi, what should I do. I love you and I love you. But I know that the love and affection of Rachell's mother for you must be greater. I'm honestly not ready to lose you. I'm not ready to be away from you, Mom. But I don't want to hurt another woman who was first in your life. What am I supposed to do?" his sobs.
She covered her pajas face with a pillow to make her cry inaudible. She finally fell asleep because she was tired of crying.

Tania opened her eyes slowly as she heard someone calling her from behind the door. He tried to get up slowly, his body felt limp. The sweet all afternoon was really draining his energy.
Cekreejek. ...
"Mas Ardi??!" nia's gaze again glowed at the arrival of her husband.
He dropped his body on the embrace of that halal man. Ardi showered kisses on both cheeks and the head of the woman who missed it.
"Why you, baby? You sick?"
"I'm fine, Mas. I'm glad to see Mas Ardi coming" Nia lied by saying fine. Ardi could see it with his own two eyes.
"You're so pale. Your eyes are puffy, baby. What's wrong with you? You've been crying? Yes, Lord .. Your hands are cold"
Ardi led Nia to sit on the bed. Straighten the legs of his beloved woman. He looked at Tania's face with a longing look, their eyes met and talked to each other. Ardi stroked his wife's cheek gently, flowing his affection through the warm rubbing.
"Wait a minute Honey, I'll make you a warm drink, so that your body is fresher" said Ardi.
"Let me, Mas" Tania tried to get up, but the feeling of a daze immediately came. He almost fell. Ardi held his wife's body with both hands. He smiled and shook his head.
"Listen baby, let me do it. You sit here quietly" please Ardi.
Finally Tania obeyed her husband's decree, she sat leaning her body against the wall. He looked at Ardi who was busy in the kitchen making two glasses of hot jasmine tea for the two of them. Ardi placed it in front of Tania, they inhaled the soft aroma of jasmine spreading in that glass of hot tea. His warm flow spread throughout their bodies and gave again the spirit and smile that was lost on Tania's face.
