Pitted Because of Will
DKW 17 - Same Position
Ayu did not continue her words, however, she is confused who to defend because however if Aunt Meta is caught slandering the first wife of her husband, it is likely that the aunt will be expelled by Bima and Ayu does not want it to happen.
"Yu," call Bima. He was still waiting for an answer from his second wife.
"Bima.. where maybe Ayu will agree with Auntie's words, she must not feel good about your wife because after all she is only a third party in your household." Aunt Meta re-opens the voice. He made Ayu as a woman who was despised because she felt she was the third party of the Bima and Nisa household.
"But, Auntie, I don't think Nisa's that kind of person. She's the nicest woman I've ever known." Bima still can not believe if his first wife did the thing as said by Tantenya Ayu.
"So you're telling me we're the ones lying?"
"That's not what I mean, Auntie. But.... "
"If Ayu were accused like that by someone else or by your first wife would you trust Ayu just as much as you trust Nisa?" urge Aunt Meta. He did not allow Bima to be able to think clearly.
"Auntie.... "
"This is how, Yu, if the husband is more inclined to the first wife. Should as a husband you can be fair dong Bima, do not always think Nisa is always right."
Bima fell silent, she no longer knew what to say.
"Alright, Aunt, later I will talk to Nisa not to arbitrarily against Ayu," said Bima who finally prefers to believe the words of Aunt Meta.
"No need to say anything to Nisa who is there she will even more accuse Ayu who is not-no!" get Aunt Meta.
"Then Auntie wants me how?" ask Bima again.
"Where does aunt know. All this happened because you did not give Ayu the same position and place."
"What auntie mean?" ask Bima again.
"Nisa feels above the wind because Ayu's status is only as the wife of Siri. Aunty believes if you legalize your marriage and Ayu to be valid also according to the law of the country, then Nisa will no longer be arbitrary to Ayu," replied Tante Meta.
"Yu... do you want our marriage to be legal under the law of the land?" Bima threw the question to Ayu.
"Anyone would want his marriage to be legal under state law" said Aunt Meta again.
"Tante! Don't aggravate this already improving situation!" pinta Ayu to his aunt. "Mas, don't mind Auntie. I don't care if I'm your wife forever. I'm sincere, Mas." Ayu looked at her husband with a sad look.
"Tante, please shut up!" get Ayu. "Mas, stop. Don't mind Aunt's words anymore. Now Mas Bima eats yes, Mas Bima has not had lunch, right?"
Ayu put a bushel of food that she brought on the table. "I prepared the plate first yes, Mas," said Ayu. She took a plate and spoon from a pentri not far from her husband's study.
"Want me a bribe?" ask Ayu after putting rice with some side dishes on the plate.
"No need. I will eat alone" replied Bima. He took over the plate from Ayu's hand.
"Want me to get you some water or some tea?" Ayu offered her husband a drink.
"No, I'll take it myself" replied Bima.
Bima began to enjoy the food in his hands with the occasional look on his second wife's face.
"Yu," call Bima.
"Yes, Mum."
"Are you going to be happy if I legalize our marriage?" bima's question made Ayu look at her husband.
"I don't want to make Ms. Nisa hurt, Mas," Ayu refused.
"Well, Ayu, if you continue to behave like this when can Nisa assume that your position is the same? Remember yes, Yu. You and Nisa are both Bima's wives. So, you have equal rights and authority." Aunt Meta insisted on being able to make Bima legalize her marriage to Ayu.
"Tante, stop this conversation. I don't want to talk about it!" pinta Ayu's.
"Taken ngeyel, yo wes is up to you." Aunt Meta snorted annoyedly.
"Yu, I think your aunt is right. I'll talk to Nisa to let us legalize our marriage." Hearing that made Ayu dumbfounded.
"Mas, what about Miss Nisa?"
"He must be able to accept it because however you are a soul mate who is addressed by the deceased papa," replied Bima.
Unlike Ayu who was afraid of Nisa's reaction, Aunt Meta was very happy to hear it.
