Sharing Love: My Husband Married Without My Permission

39. It's polygamy

Today is my wedding day. I was confused all this time I couldn't say anything to Ayu. Mom and Dad wanted to tell Ayu but I banned them. It could be that if Mother and Father who talk will certainly happen extraordinary things and make Ayu more drop.

I went out of town leaving Ayu who was driving me to the car with a smile. I don't know what he'll do if he finds out I went to marry another girl.

Arriving in the city on the way, with a heart and mind that is chaotic because of the thought of Ayu. I don't yet know what it looks like for the person I'm going to marry. I only know her name, Hana.

"You'll definitely like him. She's a beauty. Ayu has lost!" Mother spoke from the front seat, next to Ardian - my cousin - who was driving while Dad was asleep due to anti-sickness medication. I've been wearing a black suit complete with the peci that's on my head.

"You won't regret marrying her. She's a beauty. Later if your child is born, it will be very beautiful or handsome like his father and mother," said Mom cheerfully from his place.

I didn't care what Mom was talking about, I leaned my head against the back of the chair and stared outwards. Remember if I haven't told Ayu. I took out my phone and notified Ayu through a message.

Not long ago, we had arrived at the destination where a simple marriage would be performed. The house we entered looked small, unlike our own. Fabric decoration in the house looks towering cover the walls inside this house.

We were greeted by the owner of the house, who I knew was the mother and father of my second wife.

We sat in the decorated living room. Sitting waiting for the bride who is being groomed in the room. This small room instantly became cramped due to the arrival of our family. Father, Mother, I, Mas Dirga and his wife and son, as well as some of our other relatives including cousins.

While waiting, many questions were thrown at me by the family of the woman, especially her father and mother. I just answered as I could, not want to be too excessive or look careless.

A woman in a white kebaya shirt with long sleeves came out of the room, held by her mother slowly near us.

"This is it, Hana." Mother said to name the name that has always been a discussion in the family. Mom got up and took Hana from her mother and brought her near me.

I was silent to see the slender body now sitting beside me, a face that beamed ayu with make-up that is not excessive, bowed embarrassed when I scanned it from top to bottom. Eyebrows are slightly curved, not too thick. Eye makeup fits me. A small pointed nose, and also lips with a pink lipstick polish. The cheeks are a little red, but I'm sure it's not a blush, because what's on his face doesn't look excessive.

"Hey! You just keep quiet. Sapa dong his future wife. Don't just look at the teruus!" exclaimed my cousin Ardian while nudging his arm. I was shocked by his treatment. Mom, Dad and the people there smiled at me. I clucked as I threw my face in the other direction.

The event went on solemnly and also smoothly. With one breath I can recite the ijab qabul well. I thought I'd have trouble pronouncing that sentence, but I didn't.

"Congratulations, Mom. You are the husband of the second wife. Great for you, you can have two wives, hopefully they get along later at home," said Ardian, patting me on the shoulder, making me stay.

Husband of two wives.

Oh my God, the husband of two wives!

Likewise with the congratulations that some others gave me, making myself feel very sinful. I married without permission from my first wife.

What would Ayu do if I knew I was married again?

"Search what? Hp is in Mom," said Mother as she glanced from before me.

"Where, Mom? I want to call Ayu" I said to her, raising my hand.

"Can't! You if you call Ayu will definitely ask to go home! Remember Hilman, you're also Hana's husband, you can't leave her especially on your first night!" exclaim Mother and then move her legs in the other direction. I was about to catch up with Mom, but a call from Hana's father stopped me from following Mom.

Some days I have to stay at Hana's house. The other family came home in the afternoon after the wedding day.

True said Mother, Hana is indeed beautiful, even though she is without wearing makeup like at the wedding. His slim body and also not too high, making him a petite girl like a high school boy who had just graduated, even though Hana was twenty-two years old.

He is also good, alert to the work that is in this house. Whatever he does, help the mother at home. Hot coffee is always available to me in the morning and evening and also my breakfast he noticed well.

"It's okay, if Mas Hilman hasn't been able to with Hana. Hana understands, really," he said that night me and he talked together in the room awkwardly. When I asked her why she wanted to be my second wife, she just said if marrying me was happiness for her parents, then she wouldn't mind doing that.

I feel bad for having left Ayu for too long. Today I went back to my hometown.

Just entering the house, Ayu became angry with me. It turns out she already knew about my marriage to Hana. He showed me what was inside his phone. I'm sorry about what happened there. How can anyone take a picture of me with Hana when Ijab kabul happens.

I apologized to my wife, but Ayu was already angry with me, so she locked herself in the room and did not let me go in there.

Ayu was angry, she went to her mother's house when I came back to take Hana to this house. I asked him to make her his sister. He can't take it. He also asked me to find a contract for Hana to stay.

I'm so confused right now. Finding a rented house for Hana means my expenses are increasing. The money in my savings was already depleted due to yesterday's event, and also the salary I got from the office I had to share here and there. I have to set aside for Mom and also for my two in-laws.

Oh my God, it turns out like this is polygamy.

Until it happened at that time, when Ayu went home to her mother because of illness. Hana asked for my help. The lights in his room are not on. I went in there after buying a new lamp, installing it carefully. Hana held the stairs below me so as not to shift and cause me to fall.

That night somehow after getting off the lights I approached Hana unconsciously. She looks cute in a thin nightgown that prints her tiny body. Looks grooved in the right part.

Hana was silent, her face flushed red as I got closer and kissed her, and that night.

The smell of the body making me forget everything, let alone his stiff attitude and also very embarrassed, could not compensate for my kiss, which I thought that he had never felt before. And then, the screams and cries as I took his crown made me forget this world even more.
