Married The Second

Chapter 5 The divorce papers

The atmosphere that morning at Abi Talib and Umi Fatimah looked different, Aisyah had been sitting contemplating on the front porch this week. When there are neighbors who say hello, he looks daydreaming and does not even respond to his interlocutor. I don't know when he will dissolve in his sadness.

"Good morning, there is a letter on behalf of Aisyah Fitria Lhasa" the middle-aged man approached Aisyah while thrusting a white envelope in her hand.

"Mr... There is a letter on behalf of Aisyah, please accept" he said again while holding Aisyah's shoulder.

"Mas... Is Anwar home?" Her tone was full of enthusiasm, facial expression therapy returned pale when she realized the face in front of her was not the face of the man she was waiting for "Sorry sir, I think my husband who came home" he said disappointed.

During the week she was expecting her husband to come, she was very hopeful that Anwar would still accept her.

"No papa mbak, this is a letter on behalf of Aisyah Fitria Lhasa" the post said

"Yes it's in my name sir" Aisyah replied happily. She believes the letter was from her husband, perhaps her husband asked her to return to Jakarta. He believes Anwar still loves him.

"Ais, who's coming? Oh... Postman, letter to Abi, sir?" Ask umi Fatimah who just came out.

Aisyah immediately took the letter from the postman's hand "Sorry umi this letter to Ais"

"Please sign here" said the postman

Aisyah immediately took the pen from the hand of the postman, and she signed the proof of receipt of the letter.

"I'll excuse you then, buk... Assalamualaikum" pak berbit from the house of Bu Fatimah.

"Waalaikumsalam" replied Umi and Aisyah

"God's Masya... It was a pity that the girl seemed to be expecting her husband's arrival, her face looking carefree when she found out the letter was for her, But... Not that it was a letter from the court yes" muttered the postman as he filed his matic motorbike, at first glance he had seen the seal of the religious court in the letter he gave earlier.

"The letter from whom Ais is, why does your face look so pale" said Umi worriedly

He approached his daughter's body, which seemed to tremble as she read the letter in her hand, and when Aisyah's body fell to the floor, she collapsed unconscious. Fortunately, Umi immediately supported Aisyah's head so that it did not hit the floor "Abi...Abi....! Akhmad... Akhmad... Please Aisyah" cried Umi frightened, she was afraid of the condition of her eldest daughter who fell unconscious.

When he heard the screams of Umi Fatimah, Abi and Akhmad immediately rushed to run outside.

"God what happened to our daughter Umi?" Abi said as he lifted his daughter's head from Umi's lap.

"Mbak... mbak Ais why umi?" Tanya Akhmad was also worried about seeing her brother's condition.

Akhmad and Abi carried Aisyah's limp body into the house, in the living room they laid Aisyah's body on a thin mattress where the family watched television.

Umi Fatimah ran into the room, she took wind oil in her room drawer. Then he returned to the living room, carefully applying wind oil on his daughter's temples, then his nose. 

Slowly Aisyah began to regain consciousness, her two red eyes slowly began to open. "Permy.... Mas Anwar really divorced me, Ais wanted to die aja Umi" Aisyah's cry broke again, she hugged her mother very tightly, she seemed not strong support her sadness.

"Patience son.... This is a test from God, you must not speak like that, it is better to be sincere Anwar. There may be wisdom behind this test" Abi said, calming her daughter down while hugging her daughter. Umi could not see the sadness of her daughter, her watery eyes immediately came out. 

The parents re-energized their daughter, believing that the support they provided could ease the burden on her daughter's mind.

"Yes son, Ais must be patient and sincere huh? Umi believes Ais can pass this test, remember our son all loves you, look Abi Umi and Akhmad is very worried about your situation, Umi sure slowly you can definitely forget Anwar" umi Fatimah

"Yes mbak, mbak Ais is still young, beautiful again... Akhmad is sure that Ais can get a guy who is more than Anwar" Akhmad chirped trying to motivate his brother

"Hust... You're a kid don't talk like that, Mad." Umi elak.

"You don't have too many thoughts, son, let Abi help you to your room" Abi asked. He let Aisha into his room. Then Aisha lay down on her single bed.
