Honeyed

Episode 48's

I saw Fatih's car coming into the courtyard of the house. I rushed forward to greet him. These two days I can't sleep, very anxious and worried about where Fatih went without news two days ago. It's so sad that he got so mad at me that he left the house. This is the first time during my marriage that Fatih has done so.

"Mas just came home?, where have two days disappeared not home without news mas?,".

"Even get some fresh air, chopstick at home,".

"Who did you meet?,". I started to worry and get jealous.

"With friends,". Mas Fatih answered flatly while leaving me.

"Who is it?, woman?,". I'm trailing Fatih's mas.

"No, Alex is my office mate. Don't bother you yet, brother. I'm tired, I want to sleep,". Mas Fatih suddenly locked the door of the room while I pushed her out of the room.

It feels like being treated like that. Not yet anything, Fatih has changed her attitude to me. Especially if you are legally married to Siska. And the name Alex, Mas Fatih had a little tell about his office friend who was also his subordinate. Didn't Fatih most avoid communicating intensely with Alex???. Then why did Fatih become so close to Alex?, even to meet him until he did not go home. O Allah, take care of Fatih from the bad influence of his friend Rabb, my prayer is clear.

I sat on the front porch. Look at the vehicle passing in front of the house. My heart still hurts to get such harsh treatment by Fatih mas. I still keep thinking about Mother, why Mother can be that cruel to me. Even every day I remember, whether there is my wrong or outrageous attitude to Mother, but no, I even respect Mother and love Mother like my own mother.

My phone rang, I saw that there was a message from Umi. I immediately opened the message.

From Umi:

"Assalamualaikum Aisyah?, big brother how are you?, healthy brother right?. Sis, some days Umi's feelings are not good brother, some times Umi also dreamed of Aisyah's sister, in the dream, umi saw Aisyah's brother often cry brother. In Jakarta there is nothing right, brother and son Fatih no problem whatsoever brother?, alright is it?, sis?,".

My heart was broken reading a message from Umi. I can't hold back my tears. The relationship between a mother who gives birth to her child is very close. Even Umi to feel bad feeling to dream of her daughter. What should I reply to?, I can't possibly tell Umi everything. Umi's heart will be broken. Cry broke.

"Permy... Aisyah destroyed here Mi, Aisyah destroyed Mi. Aisyah will have a honey sister Mi, Aisyah will share Aisyah's husband with another woman Mi. Please Aisyah Mi,". I said on the sidelines of my crying.

I have to clear Umi's message, Umi must be very worried about me. I wiped my tears and started moving my fingers to reply to the message from Umi.

For Umi:

"Waallaikumussalam Umi darling. Alhamdulillah Umi, Aisyah here is fine Mi, there is no problem anything in Jakarta Mi. Aisyah's relationship with Fatih mas is also fine Umi. Umi don't think of the like Mi. Umi, Abi, and Aldi how are you?, sorry well Mi, Aisyah has not been able to play to Solo,". I replied to Umi.

I had to lie with Umi. I don't want to make Umi think about this. I want Umi and Abi to stay happy in Solo. My tears are still dripping. However, this problem should not let Umi and Abi know, especially about Mother-in-law who caused my household and Fatih mas to be destroyed.

From Umi:

"Thank God, brother, that brother Aisyah and son Fatih are fine there. May you always be happy, brother. No papa, later anytime kak play to his solo. Thank God we are all healthy and happy. Do not forget to always include God in every problem, brother,". Umi replied to a message from me.

For Umi:

"In shaaAlloh Mi, thank God that Umi, Abi, and Aldi are healthy and happy. Nggih Umi, In sheaAlloh always Aisyah remembered the message Umi, sister miss Umi,". My reply to Umi.

Forgive Aisyah Mi, Aisyah lied to Umi and Abi.

"Non, called with Fatih,". Suddenly Bi Dar came up to me and told me that Fatih was calling me.

"Yes bi, Aisyah's coming in later,". My answer.

What is it that Fatih suddenly called me?, does he want to apologize for being rude to me?, why doesn't Fatih come to me as usual?!. Astaghfirullah.., calm your heart Aisha, I said softly. I wiped my tears and immediately came to Fatih.

"Dik's dad, sit on,".

"What's wrong?,". I asked while sitting next to him.

"Sir, I want to buy jewelry. Take yuk dik,".

"MasyaAlloh, my... Aisyah does not want to buy gold jewelry. The wedding ring from the mas is also more than enough for Aisyah mas,".

"Oh no brother, this is not for you,".

"Oh so, who would it be for if it wasn't for Ayesha?,". I asked with a sliced heart, very painful.

"For the young wife mas dong. What are you?, forgot?, a few more days will you get married again. I want to buy more beautiful and expensive jewelry than I ever loved you before,". I know this will hurt Aisyah. I don't care, I want her to feel the pain of my heart when forced to remarry.

"Oh yasudah. Want when mas?, later Aisyah inter mas looking for her jewelry,". I answered with a forced smile. My heart really hurts, it hurts so much.

"Later out maghrib yah. You get ready, brother,". I noticed Aisyah who was trying to stem her tears, she forced a smile on me. I know his heart is broken. But from now on I have to learn to love Siska. After all, it seems that Aisyah really has an affair. The proof until now his cellphone password is still unknown to me.

"Yes to Fatih. Aisyah pamit first yes mas. Go to the kitchen,". I say goodbye to Fatih's mas, I head to the kitchen and pour cold water into the glass. I think my chest is really tight. Astaghfirullah.., many times I say Istighfar. Why is this painful, God.

"Non?, want to do something?,". Suddenly Bi Inah offered me.

"With Bi, Auntie?, can you accompany Aisyah on the back porch?, Aisyah needs a friend,".

"Can't do it,". Bi Inah replied while following me to the back porch of the house.

"Auntie, can you grab one stalk of that flower Bi?,".

"It's non,". Bi Inah thrust the flower at me.

"Bi, try aunty pull one by one the petals of the flower Bi,". My request to Bi Inah who immediately complied with my request without asking.

"It's non,".

"Now aunt squashed the rest of the stalk Bi,".

"It's non,".

"Bi, like a flower, Ayesha is now Bi. Like a flower, Aisyah was picked from both parents Aisyah, then now Aisyah is destroyed slowly, until it feels almost dead Bi,". My tears are dripping down my cheeks.

"Innalilahi non Ayesha,". Suddenly Bi Inah cried and hugged me tightly.

"Hiks.., hik.., hicks.., aunts,".

"Non, multiply istighfar. Gusti Allah does not sleep non. Non Ayesha is a good man. God must have helped. Non Ayesha strengthen the heart yes non,".

I was still crying, the afternoon breeze hit my face wet with tears. My heart is broken every day slowly, strengthen Aisha, O Allah...
