Marrying an Abuser's Ex-Husband

Chapters. 43

Tia hung up her phone, not long after she went to Hans's study.

Gts ... Gts ...

"Assalamu 'alaikum, Brother Hans," cried Tia from outside Hans's study.

Clamps.

"Wa'alaikum hail, Tia. What's up?" hans asked still with minus glasses perched on his nose.

For a few seconds, Tia was fascinated by Hans's good looks while wearing glasses.

"Tia? What's up?" Hans moved his right hand before Tia's face.

"Ah, that. There's something I want to tell my sister" Tia said nervously. Tia had almost forgotten what her goal was to come to Hans's study.

"Let's go in, Tia," said Hans, letting Tia in.

"Thank you, Brother." Tia enters after exhaling slowly to get rid of the groggy.

"Please sit down, Tia. What's up?" Hans invited Tia to sit in front of his chair.

"Before, Tia wanted to apologize. Tia wants to use the money she gave to pay for her medical expenses at the hospital. My mom is better now in a wheelchair. So mama can be taken home tomorrow" said Tia with her head lowered.

"Tia, you're free to use the money I gave you. It's all in your name, you're free to use it" Hans replied.

Tia flinched, not expecting that all the money Hans had given her was already hers. However, Tia did not know should she feel happy or feel sad. One side he can have money without having to make an effort and the other side of his heart feels bound if he takes it for granted.

"Thank you, Brother. But I told my sister that I would give back later after I succeed," replied Tia sure, she felt calmer if not indebted to others.

Hans stared in admiration at the woman in front of him. His heart grew stronger to make Tia his wife.

"Tia, I told you. We're getting married, all my money is your money. Let's just say it's my dowry money. All free you use. How's it?" Hans tries to fish out whether Tia will accept the money soon or remain adamant about his stance.

Tia suddenly stood up then said firmly, "Sir ... I am not a cheap woman who can be bought with money. Different later if the sister has become Tia's husband and provides a living for Tia. But if it's not legal to be the wife of my sister I've used the money then it's the same brother bought my body!"

"Tiaa .. wait, Tia!" hans chanted after Tia. With a little running Hans chased after Tia.

"Tia, I'm sorry! I don't mean to equate you with a cheap woman. Know, Tia. I've trusted you you're a different woman. Really, Tia. I'm sorry!" Hans held Tia's hand, then he rested in front of Tia.

"What's this?" Ningsih approached the two because she saw Tia who had broken into tears and Hans who apologized to Tia.

"Sorry, Mom. Its alright. All just misunderstand me," said Tia while wiping her tears. She did not want to make Ningsih think about herself and Hans as well.

Ningsih looked suspiciously at Hans and Tia.

"Is there really nothing? Hans explain it to mom!" Ningsih's voice had gone up three octaves. He did not want to see his son-in-law sad because of the actions of the child.

"Sorry, Mom. It's all Hans' fault. Hans did not intend to hurt Tia," Hans replied lowered his head.

"You two go with me!" Ningsih turned her electric wheelchair.

Hans and Tia followed Ningsih from the back to reach the living room. There turned out to have sat some community leaders.

"Baby, Hans. I called RT chief Ustadz and some important people in this village to be witnesses of your marriage. I want you to marry Siri first! Tomorrow just register your marriage to KUA after the divorce deed Tia out," said Ningsih who makes Tia and Hans can only gawk at confusion.

"Sir Ustad, please marry them right now! I don't want them to be a neighbor's gossip anymore" Ningsih told an ustadz who was taking care of the progress of the mosque in their elite housing estate.

"Mother?! What's the matter?" hans asked who actually did not like the sudden decision of the mother.

Ningsih stared intently at the child. "Mom did all this to keep the good name of all of us. Protect your image in front of the community. Don't ask too many questions, you quickly do what you tell me to do!" Ningsih held firm to his stance,

Hans could only rely on his mother's wishes.

"Please, Mr. Ustadz. Let's just start the marriage contract" pinta Ningsih on the ustad.

"But, Mum. Hans did not have a dowry for Tia yet" said Hans puzzled, as there had been no preparation.

Ningsih smiled, now that there was no one else who could stop his plan.
