On the same day, Akhri stopped his activities. After playing with children in Bogor botanical garden.
He grabbed his drinking bottle and then dipped the water while watching his three children who were still at home running around. Playing soap bubbles and so on.
Yeah, the family just went five without a nanny. Because Akhri wanted to, today purely spends his time looking after the children without the help of their nanny.
Ummi had just sat on a mat that was in the title between the grass. Capture their moments using their cell phone cameras while laughing. Saw David running around in the line after Alma.
"Ummi said what? They need refreshing," he muttered, still pointing the camera at his grandchildren.
"The client often takes time like this. But how else, I'm busy, Mi."
Umm Salma dropped her phone. After finishing recording. He fixed his glasses and looked at the child.
"When did you get married again?" tanyakanya.
"There's no picture yet, Mi."
"Don't choose too much. Children should have a mother to keep up with."
"Choosing a mother to connect with the child is not as easy as finding a wife for myself" he replied as he opened his phone screen. Ummi also gave up on remaining silent.
A moment Akhri was pensive, looking at the phone screen. Just when he opened his social media app.
Merr had given birth.he murmured in his heart when he accidentally saw Habib Bilal's post that day. A photo of a tiny baby in a crib closing its eyes. He switched on the note below. Then read.
[The most blue moment, thank you zaujatti. Until the sound of a tiny cry that makes me unable to stop crying. I testify that you are my righteous wife.
O heart patch... Yahya Akhlan Asegaf, welcome to this world. Abi hopes that your personality will be the same as that of Prophet Yahya as. the gentle, gentle, polite, and very obedient and obedient to his mothers.]
After reading the caption he looked back at the baby's photo and then shifted the next picture. A photo taken from the front camera by Habib Bilal himself, where he seemed happy to pose with his teeth visible. While his left hand grabbed the body of Maryam who was smiling innocently towards the camera while holding tightly to their baby.
Akhri smiled faintly. In his heart he felt happy looking at that innocent face without makeup. Nevertheless, Maryam's beautiful aura remained visible.
Sighing then, he stared at the blue sky with white clouds, moving in the direction of the wind.
Don't force Merr to drink this herbal medicine anymore, Bang. Merr is not strong... If indeed Merr can not love children, how else? Merr is sincere if Abang wants to marry again. –suddenly Merr's voice ringing in his ear. Makes Akhri bow down in lethargy. Remembering those sad moments for his ex-wife first.
Flashback...
Maryam's gaze at that time was pushy, her lips pale, her eyes were also puffy. He shook slowly with the firmness of his heart. Without a smile, without returning his gaze.
"No, Bang" he replied.
"Sik, you know you still love you very much. You said, you are sincere if you marry again, but why did you give up...?"
"I'm sincere but that doesn't mean I can withstand this service longer. I can't overturn my decision to divorce my brother. I'm sorry, I can't hold on to the duakan."
"But this is not your will, to grieve you. All this time who pressured Brother to get married again, right?"
Maryam shed tears. "Abang's right, I asked Brother to marry again. I also brought the poison into my body. All because of my lack of who can't give you a son."
"Why is that always an excuse, Merr?"
"Indeed that's the only reason I want to give up. Stay firm with that brother's talak. Because tomorrow the verdict hearing will be held, please come and do not appeal again. I'm tired Bang..."
Flashback off
Akhri gave a rough sigh. And then beristighfar many times. Ummi confused himself.
"Why you?"
"It's okay, Mi," she replied without looking at her mother. He then moved and walked a little away after asking his Ummi to help watch the three of them for a while.
Akhri walked slowly until he reached one of the clear water flows. He crouched down to paddle the water with his palm forward.
Why should I feel this illicit longing for him who is not my law anymore. Though I have been able to forget it in the times when there was still Nia on my side.
Akhri is self-absorbed. Feeling that his faith is often wavering every time he remembers his first love.
Merr, maybe I'm the only person you're supposed to hate all your life? The man who always makes you tear up because of the injustice I gave you.
I take this pain that never dries up as my punishment. Yeah, I hope everyone understands. If there are no ordinary wounds. Any small amount will feel painful. Like our divorce, I consider it the most painful wound of my life.
My brother doesn't know how to close this wound. While we've been separated a distance that I'll never be able to travel using anything. Never mind going back, greeting you already can not.
Akhri took a deep breath and exhaled a little rough. His heart wanted to scream out loud. Expecting time to turn back to her days still with Maryam. Without Kania...
