Second Woman

The Meeting of Two Families

Mama Rafa is so shocked to hear what Maya has to say about the woman Rafa likes. He did not expect that Rafa would do such a lowly thing.

"Rafa, is it true that Maya said?" mama Rafa asked Rafa.

"Rapans....."

"Maybe you think that the wrong thing in this matter is Maya, but in fact Rafapun is also guilty, Rafa ignores Maya who already loves Rafa for the sake of other women he likes," said Maya who deliberately cut off Rafa's speech.

"Rafa, are you having an affair with another woman?" mama Rafa asked Rafa.

"Rafa does love him and Rafa loves him, but Rafa has never had anything to do with him, Rafa only likes him to the extent that there is no clear status between us" Rafa replied.

"Why can Rafa? did you forget you already had a wife? is it because you don't love each other so you can be free to love others outside of your marriage?" ask Mama Rafa who does not understand the marriage that Rafa and Maya live.

"For so long Rafa has never been in love with anyone, Mama is the only woman Rafa loves and Rafa loves, but when Rafa meets him Rafa feels there is something that makes Rafa do not want to be away from him, the longer he knows Rafa the more convinced that Rafa is really in love with him" Rafa replies.

"Rafa, you shouldn't have that feeling!" said Mama Rafa.

"Rafa can't prevent Rafa's heart from falling in love with him ma, but you have to believe that Rafa's relationship with him has not gone too far, even until this second Rafa's feelings for him are not reciprocated," said Rafa.

"Who is Rafa? who made you fall in love for the first time?" ask Mama Rafa.

Rafa was silent for a while, hesitating to mention Tiara's name in front of Mama, as he knew that she knew Tiara even intending to match Tiara to the Son.

"She is Tiara, the woman who took Rafa from Maya is Tiara" said Maya who made Mama Rafa so surprised.

"Tiara? there's no way that Tiara Mama knows, right?" ask Mama Rafa to make sure.

"He was indeed a Tiara that Mama knew, Tiara Anastasya who had dinner with mama papa and Putra and Maya and Rafa, respectively, Tiara who suddenly felt unwell after she saw Rafa coming over at that dinner," Maya explained.

Mama Rafa was silent to Maya's explanation. He strives to accept all of Rafa and Maya's explanations of the true state of their household and from everything he hears he can only accept endless shock.

Especially when he finds out that Tiara is involved with Rafa and Maya's household.

"Tiara is not as good as Mama thought, she is the woman who has taken Maya's husband, she who has teased Rafa and...."

"Stop Maya, stop talking nonsense, everything you say is not true!" rafa cuts Maya's words.

"What's not true Rafa? if she's a good girl she should have stayed away from you after she found out you already had a wife, but in reality she still works at your company to get close to you!" reply Maya.

"He stayed in the company just for the sake of his dreams, had nothing to do with me at all, he never took me away from you, it was me who fell in love with him first and expressed my feelings for him, it was me who kept approaching him even though he never gave me an answer to how I felt about him" Rafa said.

"When you've lied to me, you're telling me that you've ended your relationship with Bagas but in reality you're still in contact with him and even you're the one who approached him first," continued Rafa.

"Whatchu mean? what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Bagas told me everything, he has all the evidence that shows that if you approach Bagas first, you ask to get back in touch with him, will you still be evasive? do I need to contact Bagas to have him testify here?"

As Maya fell silent, she did not expect that Bagas would actually say that to Rafa.

"So right the woman who made you fall in love was the Tiara that Mama knew? Tiara who had wanted Mama to marry Putra, turns out she is the woman you love, right so Rafa?" asked Mama Rafa who only answered a nod of the head by Rafa.

"God, why is this so complicated, why must there be a Tiara between your households!" said ama Rafa while massaging her head that returned dizzy.

"Pacify yourself, don't make your situation worse again" said Papa Rafa to the wife.

"All of this really surprised Mama pa, mama did not expect all these complicated things to happen to our child's marriage," said Mama Rafa.

"At least all that hassle is over now, all the things that Rafa and Maya have hidden are open now!" said papa Rafa.

"Papa's right, Mama should be able to accept all this because Mama also took part in the complexity that happened" said Mama Rafa

"I'm sorry Rafa ma, Rafa should have told this from the beginning to mama and papa, Rafa apologized for disappointing mom and dad," said Rafa who felt guilty to both parents.

"Now all the decisions are with you Rafa, whatever your mom and dad will accept" said Mama Rafa.

"We'd better talk about this with Maya's parents too, after all it's about the marriage between two families!" said papa Rafa.

"Don't pa, please don't tell this to Maya's parents, Maya will accept any consequences for Maya's mistakes as long as she doesn't involve Maya's parents" she said.

"Can't Maya, marriage is not only between two people but two families, a problem of this magnitude can not only be solved by the two of you but also by two families so that there is no misunderstanding in the future," reply papa Rafa.

"But pa....."

"Your parents should know what you've been doing Maya, all this time they've been putting Rafa down before Rafa joined the company, mama just kept quiet because mama still appreciates your parents but now mama can't be quiet anymore, they should know how bad your behavior has been!" mama Rafa cuts off Maya's words.

"Can't Maya get a second chance ma pa? Maya will prove if Maya really has changed, Maya will make up for all of Maya's mistakes by trying to be a good wife to Rafa!"

"There's no second chance for you Maya, you're the one who made me not trust you anymore" Rafa said.

"We talked about this when Mama was able to come home from the hospital, after which papa who will contact Maya's parents to meet and discuss this!" said papa Rafa.

**

Two days have passed, since she told her mother and father about what happened at her marriage to Maya, Rafa has never returned to the house where she lived with Maya.

He would only come to the house to pick up some of the things he needed for his work.

Every day Rafa spends his time in the office and in the hospital to accompany his mother.

Despite facing complicated problems, Rafa still tries to be professional in his job, he still gets his job done well without bringing his personal problems to the office

While Maya, since Rafa's parents knew the video with Bagas she had lost her focus, she could no longer do her job properly.

Maya even bestows some of the cases she is handling on her other co-workers.

Until the day she least wanted came, the day Mama Rafa was released from the hospital.

That morning, Maya wakes up from her slumber lazily. Rafa had already told Maya that her mother was allowed to leave the hospital, so Rafa asked Maya to come to Rafa's parents' house that morning.

"What should I do now? it looks like I won't be able to deal with the anger of mom and dad, especially if Rafa were to divorce me today, it looks like my life would be very messed up!" maya said as she ruffled her hair violently.

Maya breathed a long sigh and then took her step out of the house that felt very quiet, because it had been a few days aunty did not come home to work.

When Maya was in the kitchen to make juice, she suddenly thought of a crazy idea that just flashed through her head.

"After this my life will be very chaotic, the video has been spread and people will recognize me as a bad woman, I will lose what is already in my grasp, whether it is work or Rafa, he said, everything will be completely gone now!" maya said as she stared at the knife in front of her.

"If you're not between me and Rafa, if you never show up in front of Rafa I'm sure I can still melt Rafa's heart, you really suck Tiara, I hate you so much," maya said with her two teary eyes.

Maya then takes the knife in front of her, but not to peel the fruit, Maya actually sticks the sharp knife just above her wrist.

"Perhaps with Rafa and his parents would give me a chance, maybe with this they would believe if I really regretted my bad deed," Maya then pressed the knife on her wrist.

But not until the knife scratches Maya's hand, someone suddenly comes and quickly snatches the knife from Maya's hand.

"What are you doing? do you want to avoid all this trouble?" rafa asked while returning the knife to his place.

"Let me die Rafa, let me get away from a world that is completely impartial to me!" maya said she was about to take the knife back in front of her, but Rafa quickly held Maya's hand and gripped her tightly.

"I won't let you do that, at least while you're still my wife, after I divorce you you're free to do whatever you want, so wait a minute if you really want to get out of this world!" rafa said firmly.

Rafa then pulls Maya's hand, forcing Maya to walk after him.

"Please give me a chance Rafa, I'll show you if I really have changed, I'm sorry Rafa, I'm so sorry!" maya said she was still begging for a second chance.

"You're the one who paved the way for this divorce, so let's just end it today" Rafa replies and forces Maya into his car.

Rafa drives his car to his parents' house. Upon arriving there he immediately forces Maya to get out of the car because Maya insists on staying in the car.

"Whatever you're doing now won't affect my decision Maya, so hurry out of here before I actually do violence to you!" said Rafa who was filled with emotion because of Maya's attitude.

Until finally Rafa managed to bring Maya to face both her parents and also Maya's parents.

Maya's parents who were already in Rafa's house were so shocked when they saw Rafa coming with Maya who looked very chaotic at that time.

"Rafa, what did you do to your wife?" ask Mama Maya to Rafa.

"Mom ask him himself, what will he do before Rafa comes!" rafa said without answering Maya's mother's question.

"Whatever you're not supposed to be rude to her!" reply mama Maya who still blames Rafa.

"Please don't just blame Rafa, look at what Maya has been doing!" sahut Mama Rafa then showed a video of Maya who was with Bagas.

Mom and Dad were shocked when they saw the video. At first they had evaded and thought that the video was a camera trick, but Rafa and his parents assured that the video was original without engineering.

Mom Maya's emotions suddenly peaked and without hesitation threw her slap at Maya violently.

"You've really embarrassed our family Maya!" mama Maya is full of emotion.

Rafa then explains to Maya's parents about her marriage to the real Maya, just like Rafa's parents, Mayapun's parents are so shocked to hear Rafa's explanation.

But seeing no rebuttal at all from Maya, they also believe in all Rafa's explanations.

As parents, they also question it to Maya and Mayapun can only agree on all Rafa's explanations because that's exactly what happened.

"Who's the woman who made you ignore Maya, Rafa? who's the seductress?" ask Mama Maya to Rafa.

"Please don't call it that, she's a good woman who can keep her pride, if you want to blame others then just blame Rafa who already loves her when Rafa is still Maya's husband," rafa said firmly.

"Let's just focus on the problems that exist, the marriage problems of Rafa and Maya, there is no need to bring others in this problem, whether it's the woman Rafa loves or the cheating man Maya!" papa Rafa's sahut.
