" I'm changing clothes first yeah, yeah,, "
My husband nodded while playing his phone.
Today I was happy, we talked all the way, we laughed like there was no burden, and if other people saw us, we were like a couple who were happy with their marriage.
My hands, I tucked them around her waist, and my body was still tightened, and,,
Like I don't want to miss today, I want to always be like this, the day I always have when my husband hasn't sent me home to my parents.
By noon we returned home, Key had not come home from a friend's house apparently. My husband and I do things like family in general, cleaning the house, cooking for lunch.
It's past Maghrib but it seems like a sign my husband will go home to his parents' house has not been seen, yet,,
looks like he's gonna sleep here, I thought, uh,,,
And it turns out to be true, tonight, my husband stays over for our drum.
I can't refuse, because we are still husband and wife, after all this is his house I let my husband sleep in our house tonight.

The day before Talaq's pledge,, the,,
Sunday afternoon we prepare for the road, indeed this is the custom of our small family during the weekend, always spend time together during the weekend break.
And we still did it the day before the talaq pledge.
Along the way we chatted about anything to the point that I felt I had to reveal what I was in my heart to my husband.
"Well, can't you cancel the talaq pledge?? " ask me
"Why??? mama mind???" ask my husband to me
" If you really want to have children, I'm okay if you want to marry again, I'm ready in polygamy, I'm sincere, I'm willing to be from father do not divorce me, I'm willing to, I don't want to be a widow well, "my chest is tight, my tears are spilling. I put my face deeper on her shoulders
My husband pulled my arm so I could put my arms back in my arms, maybe so I wouldn't fall off the top of the speeding bike
" Mamah sure you can polygamy?? " ask her to me
I nodded on her shoulder, I think that although my husband could not see your nod, but he could feel it,,, I guess,,,
" If indeed the father can be polygamous, the father promises to work harder and harder than this, for the sake of the mother and the new wife of the father and the son of the father later" he said excitedly
I was silent, only tears were melting on my cheeks.
At home,,,
I went into the room, my eyes were still hot, but I tried to make my heart calmer, and my husband came up to me and fell asleep next to me holding my fingers, and,,,
" Mamah is sure with the mama's talk that you can polygamy??? " ask her to me
I looked at him deeply, and nodded
I saw my husband take a deep breath and his smile expanded,,,
" Dad promised, I won't disappoint mom, I'll make enough of you "
" Yes,,, !!! " call me quietly barely audible
" Yes mah, why??? " ask her to me
" I'm sorry, but I don't think I can share you with another woman, I'm sure my heart won't be able to, "I'm holding my husband's hand, instantly a clear grain dripped on my cheek,,,
I don't know what I was thinking at the time, my heart was so in a dilemma, I wanted to let my husband marry again at the risk of sharing a husband or if I was retreating and ready for divorce. A really painful choice, my life is like eating simalakama fruit,,,
