I'm taking you off, Mas!

I'm Your Talak

“Where is the family of Ms. Syafa,” said the nurse who just came out of the ER room. Her views were looking for a husband from Syafa and other members of her family.

“What do you mean Syafa Aileen Wirawan, Sister?” ask the man standing not far from the nurse.

“Truely, Sir! Are you ready for the patient?” The nurse asked back.

“I am still his family, I got word that Syafa is in the hospital. Can I go inside?” Roni asked permission.

The sister asked was a little hesitant to allow the man in. The man understood the doubt the nurse felt.

“I Roni, Roni Khairil isham. I am the closest person to Shafa. Just call her husband immediately, before she returns I will accompany Syafa,” said Roni firmly. And without any more permission, the man went straight into the room.

The nurse kept silent with Roni's firmness. Instantly her daydream was scrapped when she remembered that she had to immediately contact the husband of a patient named Syafa as soon as possible.

Afkar walked staggered with his leg still sick due to the accident he had. It does not make the spirit of Afkae saggy. The man excitedly continued to step towards the ER room. Someone who contacted her was the nurse who was guarding Syafa in the ER room. The sister wanted to inform her that Syafa had come to her senses from her critical period.

“Finally you are aware, Fa,” Afkar said in his heart. The man could not wait to see his wife again. He was so worried about the woman that Afkar willingly applied for a few days off from his job. For the sake of his intention who wanted to accompany Syafa every day in the hospital. Afkar sped up his steps towards the room where Syafa was.

Another with Afkar hastily returned to the ER room. Yara had to go to Dhiya's treatment room first to see her husband, Erza.

“Mas,” call Yara when room door open. Yara's eye beads sparkled when she saw her little daughter was already awake.

“Dhiya, you're awake, darling?” Yara walked a little quickly to the gurney where Dhiya was sitting on a pillow.

“Mother,” Ogre Dhiya. The little boy's gaze led to the back of Yara, looking for someone there. “Which father? Papa said, mommy again with dad?” ask Dhiya.

Yara is confused as to what to answer. Because Dhiya does not know about Syafa's current condition. Yara looked at Erza. The man seemed very calm in his attitude.

“Kakak, want to see dad?” erza asked Dhiya.

The little boy nodded back. “Iya Pah? Dad's okay ‘kan? How about Mamih Syafa?” Dhiya continued asking.

Yara was getting confused hearing the question from Dhiya. Dhiya's condition has just recovered, Yara does not want anything to happen to her daughter.

“Afkar's father is fine! Maybe Afkar's father is currently with Mamih Syafa. Are you sure you want to meet Mamih?” Erza asked back.

Dhiya nodded her head “What's wrong, Pah?” Dhiya was getting curious.

“Papa will invite you to meet Afkar's father and Mamih Syafa now. But the same permission doctor guard first, Ok.” Erza was able to be calm in front of Dhiya. Unlike Yara who was a little scared. Yara is afraid that Dhiya feels guilty about the incident that happened to Syafa because the child had cried regretting everything. If only Dhiya did not insist on returning to cross the road, it could not have been an accident that happened to Syafa.

The ER room.

From the moment he realized from his critical moment. The first person Syafa saw was Roni. The man still showed his warm attitude towards Syafa. It is undeniable that the woman who is currently in front of him always has a place in Roni's heart. Although it was filled by another woman. The woman who was only two months as his wife. Unfortunately, Melani left so quickly. Roni is back alone. And at that time Syafa contacted Roni again because the woman did consider Roni as her own brother. To Roni, Syafa expressed his wish. There are some important things they are talking about. Roni occasionally ended the conversation because the man knew Syafa had only come to his senses from his critical period. But Syafa is still forcing. Shafa is afraid of not having another chance to reveal everything. Until Syafa and Roni's chat leads to Syafa's divorce.

Right in front of the ER room, Afkar was at the moment. His desire to meet Syafa grew even greater. The nurse told me there was someone else in there who was accompanying the newly awakened patient.

Afkar furrowed his brows hearing him. He wondered who was with his wife at this time. Luckily Afkar can still go inside because the limit of visitors who see patients in the ER room is a maximum of two people no more. So the man could tell whose wife was in there with whom.

Afkar immediately entered the room. Change the clothes that are there. He saw a man sitting facing Shafa. Afkar knew the man's voice.

‘Roni, what is he here for?’

Inner Afkar, he stopped his steps and chose to stand not far from where Roni and Syafa are today. Both of them were completely unaware of Afkar's existence. Afkar was silent for a moment. Initially wanted to get out of the room because it did not want to interfere with the togetherness of Roni and Syafa. Both are close to before. But when he heard the word divorce made Afkar reluctant to go from there. He sharpened his hearing when Syafa spoke seriously to Roni.

“We'll talk about this later, Fa. You're still not recovered. If your condition has improved, InsyaAllah Mas will take care of it but not for now,” Roni replied. “Now you better rest!” Roni rubbed softly Syafa's head that was covered in bandages.

Syafa nodded weakly. “If Mas Roni meets with Yara in front please tell her I want to talk to her,” Syafa's pinta.

“Later I say.”

Roni was about to move from her seat. But Shafa prevents. “Wait here any minute, Mas. Until I'm closed,” pinta Syafa spoiled. The woman's attitude looked spoiled at this man before her. They were like sisters from a long time ago.

Afkar who heard Syafa's words felt weak. His body was leaning against the wall behind the sealing wall in the room.

‘Therefore is your desire to divorce with me, Fa.” Afkar closed his eyes. Feeling the tightness that squeezed his chest. Although sincere but Afkar must make a decision. It is free if you continue to want to be together if you have to fight for one side. Indeed from the beginning of his marriage with Syafa was wrong. Afkar can't go on anymore. Eventually Afkar accepted all of Shafa's wishes. Long time the man was standing there. Until Roni's voice breaks his daydream.

“Come in! You want to see the state of Syafa ‘kan?” said Roni.

“It could be that Syafa doesn't want to meet me,” Afkar said.

“He's asleep. You can see it without saying anything.”

Afkar straightened his body. His gaze turned to look at Syafa. It turns out that it is true, Syafa is resting.

“I just want to see it for a while,” said Afkar.

“Please! I won't bother you guys.” Roni passed from before Afkar.

Slowly Afkar walked closer to Syafa. Afkae's heart was so sliced to see the current state of Syafa. His hand was about to touch Syafa's cheek. But he retracted it, fearing that his touch would disturb Syafa.

Afkar chose to sit on the bench that was occupied by Roni. Long enough Afkar was silent while continuing to pay attention to Syafa. Until finally Afkar spoke up.

“You know, Honey. I intend to wait for you in this hospital as long as you are in recovery. But it turns out my presence was not at all expected.” Afkar smiled miris. “Until you want to end our marriage immediately.” Afkar spoke in a soft voice. Although Syafa closed his eyes, Afkar hoped that what he said could be heard by the woman. “By the way, can still ‘can I call you dear?” kanda Afkar with his little bitterness. Afkar again said, “I understand and really understand our current condition. Situations and circumstances that are wrong require you to make this decision. It's hard to decide, I'm the same, honey. I love you and Yara. You're the two women who once filled my life. And you're right to love doesn't mean you have to have. Hopefully later you get a better companion Dear.” Afkar closed his eyes for a moment. Then open his eyelids again. Breath was heard from Afkar's lips. “Syafa Aileen Wirawan, from today I talak you, we are not husband and wife anymore,” lirih Afkar. The man lowered his head after speaking. “This ‘kan you want? You and I are no longer husband and wife. I'm waiting for a divorce from you, Fa.” The man stood sitting. Then slightly bow to kiss Syafa's forehead one last time. The lips were long on Yara's forehead. After being satisfied, Afkar immediately turned around to leave Syafa.

‘I know you didn't really fall asleep, Fa. You must have heard what I was talking about. I grant your wish religiously. We are no longer husband and wife.’

Afkar stepped away from Syafa.

On top of the gurney, Syafa shed his tears. Afkar said he didn't really fall asleep at the time. Shafa listened to all the speech that escaped Afkar's lips.

Shafa closed his own mouth. Her tears broke at that moment. “I'm sorry, Mas. At the last moment you said a talaq, I couldn't see your face. Because it makes it harder for me to take you off. Thank you for being in my life all this time. I love you and Yara too. I'm sorry that I prefer Yara, my sister over defending our household. I also hope that you get a better woman than me,” shimmily Syafa as hiccuped with her sobs.

As one insists on defending, the path to togetherness goes further. All of this is still a fateful destiny.

Loving someone does not mean having to. But letting go and hoping our loved ones can be happy with someone else is the best way to love that person.
