Prison Wound

The End of Part

Beyond Raditya's expectations, Riena even commented a warm smile on the figure of the woman who greeted them as well as greeted them with words that were not necessarily spoken to show empathy.

"No, Ma. Why did I go so far abroad? The problem is here. No matter how far I run, my heart stays attached here. If indeed there is a way that can be done to run away from reality, of course when this heart is no longer bound and like my mind. Yesterday I tried to go far away and avoid something I should have faced bravely. In fact, the problem was not solved either. Running only adds to the duration of the problem becoming longer and longer and in staying in our hearts." Riena said it while pointing at her own chest.

Raditya gave thanks in silence. No ceasing to say thank you he addressed the Creator by reading takbeir in the heart. No matter how many storms have hit his family, the abundance of happiness seems to have been waiting before his eyes. The test that feels heavy, has actually been rooted according to the ability of his servant. No less or excessive as stated in the letter Al Baqarah verse 286. Allah does not burden a man except according to his capacity. One gets the reward of the good sought. And conversely, one will also get a reply from every crime committed.

Riena and Raditya only stay overnight at the house of the couple who take care of their rice fields. The next day, Riena actually billed Raditya a promise to give a list of the names of women who had been in contact with her husband. Neither Riena nor Raditya's heart, it's clearly not okay when it comes to finding information about the former. However, both of them are equally committed to completing everything so that they can immediately start a new life without a shadow of the past.

"Bee, are you sure you're coming? You have to rest a lot. Later if you are exhausted, pity you and your fetus," said Raditya. In addition to wanting to find a gap to not linger and a lot of pleasantries when apologizing, he also worried about Riena's physical and psychological condition.

"I'm just pregnant, Ay. Not a patient who has to lie down a lot on the bed. There are not many reasons. Just say don't want to be disturbed if you talk to your ex again," replied Riena, of course with a tone and look ketus face that is not made-up.

Raditya was instantly made unable to dwell anymore. Even good intentions will still be seen as there is no good purpose if women have drawn their own conclusions. The apology began that day. One by one, a warm welcome was always received by Raditya and Riena. From the first day until now the seventh day, not one of the ten people Raditya came to greet them unfriendly. Of course because indeed among the names, Raditya's relationship is just a close and ordinary date without spiced up love one night in bed.

"Well, for Rena, let's go to her grave, yuk!" riena's advice while laying on her soft mattress. After a day of traveling to several places, tired also his body.

"Rena's Tomb is in Bali, Bee. Do we have to go there? I don't think it's necessary. We, especially you, have paid a heavy price for my mistakes. We can pray for Rena from here."

Riena fell silent. Bali-island which is one proof of God's mercy on earth earth earth. Its cultural richness and natural beauty are fascinating. However, since the dark events that happened to him, Bali is no longer that attractive to Riena. He decided not to set foot on the island anymore.

"Do you want to see Reno? I don't actually want to offer this. She obviously likes you." Raditya lies down next to Riena.

"Reno's not here anymore, Ay. Ratih said Reno was working on their divorce religiously."

"He went to the Vatican himself?"

Riena simply replied with a lip splash that indicated she did not know what Raditya was asking.

"You can talk like that because you're not the one who felt Ratih's love for Reno, Bee. The same thing someone else might be talking behind your back. About you who choose to come back with a husband who has made your life destroyed, feel depressed and also lose your honor. Husbands who do not take good care of you, still you maintain. For others, it could be stupid."

Riena fell silent while looking fixedly at Raditya. His breath seemed a little heavy and deep. The longer, the more sad and sad his gaze became. His clear eyes were misty clear puddles that were ready to drip down his cheeks whenever he blinked.

"Thank you for making me fall in love so many times with the same person. Our path is long. Redness of a storm does not guarantee that in the future there will be no more storms that hit. But promise me, we'll stick together to strengthen and remind each other. Keep my neck, let my head move in the direction of the truth."

Riena slowly shifted her body towards Raditya. With full consciousness, he placed his head on the husband's chest. The clear thread finally fell uncontrollably. Not only soaked Riena's smooth white cheeks, but also Raditya's breastplate.

"For me you're not just a wife. More than that, you are my helper. I know how hard it has been to be you these past few months. The difficulty of you fighting your way out of your trauma has rendered me helpless. I want to take a little bit of your wound, but of course I can't. My helplessness made me feel how unworthy I was to be your companion. But such a great love, it dawned on me how to solidify myself for you."

Riena further tightened her body on Raditya's body. His hands wrapped around Raditya's hips possessively. While the legs of the beautiful woman uses Raditya thigh as a bolster. Warmth is not just because of physical touch. But also because Raditya's words and gaze on women who are pregnant with the fruits of their marriage is so full of deep love.

"I haven't fully recovered. I'm just trying to get back on the right path of my life. Now, the life we live is not just about us. But there's another life here." Riena led Raditya's hand to rub his stomach.

"Healthy, yes, Mom. Let the nauseous Father. Later pas lahiran, let the Father also who rasain sick." Raditya spoke to represent the voice of the fetus in the womb Riena.

"I don't want to guarantee. Because I also want to get sick and sick. Because this will be my first and last pregnancy."

Raditya forced his smile upon hearing Riena's words. Deep down she wanted to have many children. Reflecting on herself and Riena herself who is an only child, she often dreams of having several children will certainly make her home always crowded. However, he chose to be silent not to respond because he did not want to spoil the atmosphere.

No more words were spoken from the lips of Raditya or Riena. Slowly the two closed their eyes. Ignoring a body that craves touch-to-touch exchanges warmth only in a lullaby.

The storms in life will never really end as long as the body is still alive. Once the story is over, then there will be a new story begins. Until God says, "come home in eternity". And so ended a short journey of eternal sadness and happiness.
