Knitting Wounds Extreme

Indecision.

The night continues to spread. The cold pierced through the skin to the bone. The wind blew through the window grille, further adding to the gripping atmosphere on a clear night.

The beautiful hanging moon with a perfectly round shape, is a witness for a pair of two people who have a beautiful history story in the past. Both Fatma and Adi are now equally caught up in the nostalgia of the old story that is interwoven between them.

Fatma almost forgot, with the main purpose of coming to meet Adi personally, secretly. Adi's charm, still as strong as ever in the eyes of Fatma. His stoutness, still persisted even though his hair had grayed.

The cruel past, in fact, can separate the two who love each other.

"So, what is it that you suddenly came to see me, Fatma? I don't think you're gonna change your mind" said Adi, raising his eyebrows next to a question mark.

"I came to bring an opportunity, Mas Adi. An opportunity that if you let it go this time, you will never get it back" replied Fatma, in a seductive voice, typical of Fatma as a young man.

Just from the sound alone, Adi can even melt. An almost old eye with lines around the eyes, implying longing.

"You know what, Fatma? When I meet you, just by looking me in the eye, then you will know how big my miss is to you," said Adi, re-evoking the feeling that once existed, "tell me, tell me, is that what you mean."

Fatma did not immediately answer, but steadied her heart to make major decisions in her life. Thus, when the hate speech accompanied by Aditya's insults to Maya re-enacted, then Fatma no longer thinks twice.

"I am willing to come back with you, marry you, and end our old quarrels. Let's live together like what we used to aspire to. Isn't there no more barrier between us?" ask Fatma then.

Adi was surprised, of course, feeling disbelief with what was revealed by Fatma.

"What brought you home, and changed your mind to accept me again? Didn't you vehemently oppose my offer?" adi asked, "and again, you must have come to ask me for something as barter, when you said you were willing when we came back."

Adi's age is no longer young, but the man is still as young as ever. His instincts are still as strong as when he was young. Don't ask how Adi guesses, of course he knows very well, that there must be something big that brings Fatma's step until coming to meet him here.

"I came in addition to accept your offer, also I came because I want to pay off the humiliation I received from .. no need I mention, you will surely know who the figure is. Never mind, Mas Adi. I don't need a lot of pleasantries, nor do I have much time. You're willing to make this happen, or not. If not, I'll go home. I will have no problem with rejection, if your offer is no longer valid," replied Fatma steadily.

And Adi was no longer wrong, if his guess, was one of his family that had made Fatma return to him. If one day Adi knows who made Fatma come back, then Adi will say a big thank you to that person.

"alright. I'll take care of everything. Is, is there anything else you want? Are there any covenant points you'd like to make with me, before we get married?" ask Adi later.

Fatma's eyes suddenly confused, thinking hard about how.

"I don't want much of you set up, mas. Let me stay in my old house with my daughter and granddaughter. And I beg you, cherish my daughter's privacy, no matter how bad her past may be" Fatma replied with wry eyes.

"Lantas, how are you? Is there a point you want to make me.?" ask Fatma. The woman looked at Aditya who was smiling brightly at her.

This is what Fatma feared. Fatma was afraid, if later Adi demanded a lot of things to her. Hopefully, what Adi wants from him, is not so heavy.

"I won't ask you anything, Fatma. Believe me, I just want to live with you, you forgive me for my past mistakes married to Inayah, also you can be a good wife and can compensate me, that's all. The rest, everything is free whatever you want from me" replied Adi.

Fatma gawked in disbelief. A man with a high ego, a man with ambitions as high as the sky, demanding nothing from Fatma, this is unbelievable.

Since young, Fatma knew how Adi. A man who is difficult to be subdued by many girls in his time, it is impossible not to ask anything from him, at the request he made.

"I can't believe it. It's impossible if you don't want to set me up with so many things. Why can you resign without such a request from me?" ask Fatma.

A warm smile similar to the sun that morning, again made Fatma's feelings melt. His charm can really make Fatma seem to stop breathing.

"You ask why? Because I love you unconditionally, Fatma. If my mother hadn't said she would have dumped me as her son, I would have hit whatever storm was in the way. Honestly, I'm afraid that if a mother had taken her vow, salvation wouldn't be on me. Now, Mom and Dad are gone, nothing can stop me from ever having you again" Adi replied at length.

The heart in Fatma's chest was so touched. Haru enveloped the woman's heart. If only fate had not been so cruel to separate him and Adi, there might not have been a story of insult wounds like this.

"There was. Inayah will not stay silent, if you really marry me later" Fatma later said.

"If he doesn't like it, I don't mind if he wants to get out of my life. But if he still wants to be ready to enjoy my treasure, I won't throw him out. In my old age, I wanted to live only with the woman I love" Adi said.

"How much do you love me, so you do, mom?" ask Fatma.

"Even in a long storm, I am still faithful to this love, Fatma. I can't imagine how much love is here for you" Adi replied, patting her on the chest several times.

Fatma felt guilty herself. He came to take advantage of the marriage, to avenge Aditya, his mother and sisters. Really, is this act of Fatma justified?

"I hope, after we get married, you don't just have the intention to achieve a goal. Whatever you want, you can ask me, I'll give you all. It's just that, after that, give me your love. Just your love," Adi added again.

Fatma was silent in her place, as if feeling her heart wavering.
