"Eat the porridge first huh, Mas?,"
Arfan just nodded his head. He opened his mouth slightly to accept the first mouthful of warm porridge made by his first wife.
"Mass?"
"Hem," Arfan closed his eyes, his head still slightly dizzy. He hasn't notified his secretary for permission not to go to the office.
"Hmmm, that's ..."
Not yet finished talking, Arfan asked him to contact Vano and tell him if he did not go to the office.
"Yes, Mas"
There was no conversation between the two of them. Arfan is still enjoying the porridge that is starting to make him feel full.
"Udah"
After putting the remaining bowl of porridge in half, Arini wanted to take a wet towel and she wiped it on her husband's body.
"Mas?" asked Arini while rubbing on Arfan's chest.
"Hm?,"
"I-I called is-wife ..."
"What?" Arfan opened his eyes because his wife was talking stammeringly.
"Akutelponistrikeduamas," Arini said with one breath without pause.
"Well?,"
*_____*
Arini took a breath and exhaled her. He tried to stay calm in the face of all this. In front of her parents, she accepts Sonya's existence as her honeymoon, in other words Arfan's second wife. Her husband and best friend. Actually, he did not expect this to happen in the hijra process. It was enough that he had to accept a forced marriage with his own best friend, even though deep down he was very happy.
"I.telpon.istri.keco.Mas," Arini pronounces it by spelling each letter, let it be clear and not repeat, as he thought.
"Ga nah,"
"Why?,"
"I said ga ya ga, bawel really anyway," hardik Arfan with a slightly high tone of voice.
"Let's know why, I'm gapapa"
The man just remained silent.
"I sincerely accept you who are suing me, Mas. And ... You've breached our marriage contract. I thought you'd remember that, right?"
Again. The atmosphere in the room became quiet. Maybe only the clang of the wall clock as an escort that shows how things are at that time.
“Maybe you forgot yes, Mas. The proof, you broke all the rules that you made yourself. While me? Not a single one of me broke it, I obeyed everything. EVERYONE,” Arini's cry with tears.
The woman could not hold back any longer all the tightness in her heart. He said everything, maybe only part of it. Because there are secrets that Arfan never knew since they were friends until now.
“You know, Mas. We've been friends since. I thought you knew how I was, but no. Sometimes I think, was all your kindness during our friendship just a lie? ANSWER, MAS”
“What do you mean?,” finally Arfan let out his voice.
“Huft, many things you forgot about me huh, Mas?,” asked Arini while smiling bitterly.
There's no answer.
“I used to say the same to you, right? I want to marry once and love once with a man instead of my muhrim. And .. and I also want to be the only woman who will always be loved and with him forever. You know what that means? … hiks .. hiks .. I don't want to be polygamous. B-but, you did it to me, Mas. Although, I know we both had to get married, my heart still hurts until this moment.”
There was sadness in Arini's eyes. He got off the bed while smothering his mouth with his own palm.
“I hope you don't hide anything else to me, don't you?,”
Arfan's body became stiff. Face stiffened. Arini saw her husband's expression.
“It turns out there is still a secret yes, Mas?”
“I want you to be honest with me, Mas?,” he said inwardly.
“Looks like you contracted my fever last night, it'd be your turn to rest.” Arfan walked over to Arini who was standing not far from the bed.
“Don't touch me, Mas. Honestly, I-I still remember how my heart ached when you first touched me. You forced me to give you your rights. And after that, you just left, leaving me alone in the room. You think I'm pel*cur, HAH”
Arini shouted again right in front of the man.
“You said I wasn't pel*cur .. hiks ... hiks, but your actions justified it, Mas”
"I don't know if I'm willing to accept all this and try to live life with you, Mom"
After expressing a feeling of tightness in her heart, Arini came out of the room.
