Second Woman

go away

The day passes without us being able to bear with the rising and setting of the sun in the evening horizon.

Yesterday will be a memory and also give us a life lesson that we have to go through tomorrow

Today is exactly forty days since the death of steadfast, various religious and also customary where he took shelter then tonight held a forty-day study event in memory of the death of steadfast

As many as thirty children of the orphanage who were taken care of by Miss Lastri also participated in the study and also the residents of the complex where Alika lived also filled the living room and terrace of the house

The event took place solemnly led by ustadz Yusuf , he was the ustadz who lived in the complex.

Alika clutched her daughter Anaya's body with tears that had poured down her cheeks, never imagined by her if her beloved daughter would be born without love from her biological father

Imagine him who had lived on the streets as a child when his depressed mother left him alone in a market crowded by crowds of people shopping, while his father he did not remember one bit

All he remembered was his depressed mother who often took a bad attitude towards him and ended up leaving him in the market

Still vividly remembered when he did not eat for two days and was found by a scavenger and delivered to the orphanage where the lastri ma'am who managed it, he said, he was treated very well and even had many friends there

But the heart of the person who can manage in fact he also imagines can be embraced lovingly by his biological parents but wishful thinking is only wishful thinking

Now his only wish is for one to please his daughter Anaya Humaira with infinite affection

After the study, the children of the orphanage had been brought home by Mr. Hasim who was usually assigned to bring children when there was an event outside the home.

"there is something I want to talk to all of you" said Alika lirih but still able to be heard by the lastri, Mala and Dani who were busy cleaning up food on the mat

Alika then sat on the mat not far from where the three of them were,

"why Wi...what's up" Mala approached Alika's body as well as Dani and Miss Lastri.

"i want to move out of here...."

"why Wi.... why should I move, is it because of Galang?" Mala said a little loudly in her last words

"why should you move. or else you and Anaya stay with us Wi, I don't mind if you stay with me and Dani mas "

"it's not good that there are other women in your household" Alika said

"you're Wi kayak who ever will happen what's going on in my house, my husband also can't macem macem same you " said mala really really.

"mal..I believe in you and Dani, but still the mall is not good and inappropriate.I want to go far from this city,I want to calm down with Anaya without being disturbed by Mas Galang"

"then you go where we're your family, and we're your family,"

"i've got the mall place, just what I think now about this house.how about this house, this house was built firm with his efforts for years.... it feels like I'm heavy leaving this house especially if I have to sell it it feels impossible I do " said Alika sadu

After a long time, the three of them finally agreed to leave the city

###########

"i'm sorry I have to leave you alone here, tomorrow I will leave this town, because I know my prayer is what you need more there. I love you so much brother, I lost you so much brother, I feel like I want to sleep so that what I'm going through is now just a dream... " Alika dissolves in tears beside the husband's navel, one hand squeezes a strong headstone that reads the name firmly there

today is the first time Alika came to the tomb firmly after giving birth, because she was forbidden to the tomb because it was still the puerperium and then followed by haids after puerperium, after being completely clean, he dared to visit the tomb of his husband

long ago Alika was stunned there, she spilled all her sorrow and happiness after there was Anaya beside her.Samid she heard footsteps that sounded snapped,he ignored maybe someone who wanted to make a pilgrimage to one of the tombs there he thought

A moment later

"wake you up" shouted a woman beside Alika, as she turned to the source of the voice.

"Gi....."

Brutally, Giany pulled Alika's hand so that Alika stood up, but Alika also stood up because of the strong pull of Giany

Plaaakkk

Alika staggered back when she got a hard slap from Giany, her ears seemed to ring so hard

"stupid you can't take care of the people you care about." - Giany.

"what the fuck are you Gi...."

"look because your stupidity can not keep sak Teguh now he is no longer there, if you are smart to maintain a healthy diet and life maybe Sak Teguh is still alive "

"you fool Gi.. soul mate, age and death is God's decree, if it is time to die anyone will not be able to avoid "

"no need to talk mbak. indeed you are not good at taking care of your husband, your first husband is polygamous and now Brother Teguh died at a young age.... if you know you can not take care of Brother Teguh at that time I certainly insist on making brother Teguh from you. Because you brother Teguh died, you are stupid mbak "maki Giany.

"go away from here Gi.... GO "

"no.. who should have gone was you, I who have been here every day ngunjungin brother Teguh, but you.... it is past forty days of the death of your steadfast brother that you have just come here, what kind of wife is it "

Alika's mind floated considering that when she came earlier there were flowers scattered over her husband's navel like flowers that had just withered yesterday,

Instantly, Alika's daydreams collapsed as Giany said loudly

"wait what else mbak quickly go. you do not pantes there in the tomb of Kak Teguh "

"mbak mbak don't make a fuss here.this tomb is not a market" a man came to mediate Giany and alika.
