Sharing Love: The Suffering of the Second Wife

Talking With Ikram and Ain

If you want your life to be calm, then eliminate the bad nature of thinking about others.

Nadia braced her heart to talk to Ain and Ikram. Tonight everything has to be done so that no one else gets hurt. If Ain asked him to go and the Ikram rido, then he would go willingly.

It draws in deep air, throwing it away slowly. Time and time again glanced at the clock on the wall waiting for its needle to number nine exactly. Usually the children are asleep.

Nadia moved out of the house and stepped towards Ain's house with her heart beating fast. Seeing the lights of the house Ikram still on, the sound of Ain and Ikram was talking in the middle room.

"Bi, why can't Abi do it? Is it because of Nadia? Is it because Abi loves her so much that Abi refuses Umi's request?" said Ain's voice that stopped Nadia's hand when she was about to knock on the door.

"Abi said, Abi does not want to repeat the same mistake. All this is not because of Nadia, but Abi thinks of Umi's feelings as well as the children. Abi did not want to see Umi sad as well as children, that's all. Does Umi still not understand?" the sound of the soft-pitched Ikram sound seemed to fear Ain was smashed to pieces if he just slightly snapped at it.

Nadia sighed what Mother Foundation said turned out to be true. They often argue because of him. Nadia made up her mind, she no longer wanted the husband and wife to fight just because of her.

"Bismilbornrahmanirrahim!" he nodded, raising his hand to knock on the door.

Tok .. tok .. tok!

"Assalamu'alaikum!" his greeting that managed to stop the debate Ikram and Ain. Silent. There was no affirmation, nor was there a voice of debate between Ain and Ikram.

"Assalamu'alaikum!" greetings once again. He waited again, standing restlessly in front of Ain's house. If after three greetings no one has opened the door for him, he will return home.

The door opened and Ain opened the door for him.

"Nadia? Why go home at night?" ask Ain not like it. Instead of answering his greetings he cast a suspicious look at the woman who smiled at him.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Brother!" Nadia again said the greeting while reaching for Ain's hand and kissed him without hesitation.

"Wa'alaikumussalaam! You looking for our husband? Oh, inside!" ketusnya while pointing Ikram with his face.

Nadia shook her head, her lip line still forming an upward arch as if she was fine with Ain's poise. In fact, his heart felt squeezed and slashed sembilu.

"No, Brother. Can I come in? I want to talk to you guys" said Nadia asking Ain's permission to go inside.

Ain looked at Nadia's face, the face of the woman who always made him envious so he was willing to spend a lot of money just to rival that face. Nadia waited with a thin smile, it did not feel good to be seen like that. It was as if Nadia was a suspect criminal.

"Who, Mi?" ask me from where I sit. He knew and heard whose voice was coming.

Ain did not answer the voice of Ikram, he looked at Nadia and let her honey in.

"Thank you, sister," said Nadia as she followed Ain towards the place where Ikram was sitting waiting.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Ma!" Nadia shines a kram. Sit down with them.

"Wa'alaikumussalaam's chat. What was? Tumben's been here all night?" ask Ikram also with a frowning forehead.

Nadia was still silent, she saw Ain who moved might make a drink.

"Eh ... Sis! If you want to make a drink, you better not. I want to talk to you guys, "prevent Nadia who keeps Ain from going to the kitchen.

He sat back on the same sofa as Ikram. Nadia chose to sit in the chair opposite their seat.

"What are you talking about, Nadia? It seems very important" asked Ikram. He who is reading a book puts his book on the table. I looked at Nadia with my fingers on my stomach.

"Mmm ... here .. bismilbornrahmanirrahim." Nadia took a deep breath, preparing her heart so that her speech could compromise and could utter the sentences she had composed at home.

Ikram and Ain waited for him with different views.

"I heard bad news from people. The news that you are arguing because of me. Not ... I'm not thinking of myself, but I'm thinking of you guys who've been living together for ten more years. It feels uncomfortable when this new me is actually triggering a debate between you. I'm like a thorn in the flesh that stabs without being seen"

"I'm sorry. I just overheard your debate. I realized, I shouldn't be in the life of a man who has had a woman by his side. I realized that and it was too late, but I regretted everything ...."

Nadia paused her speech. Staring at Ikram and Ain alternately who still locked their mouths tightly. The two ends of Ikram's eyebrows are linked, he can already guess where Nadia's speech is going. But he kept waiting and listening.

"Mas, Brother Ain .. if my presence in the life of Mas Ikram is very disturbing your calm in running the household heresy, then .. I am willing to go from the life of Mas Ikram. I told you, didn't I? That I do not want to take Mas Ikram from Kak Ain. There is absolutely no intention for me to do that. I only hope that by being the wife of Mas Ikram I can be closer to God. For the rest, I have no other intention," continued Nadia looking at her husband and older sister with a faint look.

"What do you mean, Nadia?" tanya Ikram straightened his body while looking at Nadia deeply.

Ain just silently listened. He didn't want to say it or anything.

"Mas, as Mamah said, no woman is willing to be combined. Oral can be sincere, but the pain in the heart can not be covered forever. If my presence here only adds to the heartache of Brother Ain, I .. I will withdraw from this marriage, Mas. Let's get divorced!" said Nadia who just made Ikram rise from his seat.

Ain was surprised to hear it. He was so afraid to say the word, but Nadia seemed to have no burden when saying that sentence. He looked at Nadia in disbelief. Really don't believe. But in his heart he cheered happily. And supports Ikram divorcing Nadia. He promised that if Ikram and Nadia divorced, he would not force Ikram to marry Yuni. She was the only wife of Ikram.

Nadia glanced at Ikram while smiling faintly. The man was looking at his face with a great roaring chest. He never expected Nadia to say the word haram to him.

While Nadia too, gulped stale saliva when she saw the reddened face of Ikram. His manic seeds lit up, flames of fury blazed within them. Nadia was really scared right now. Has he been wrong to say that to Ikram?

One step, two steps, three steps, Ikram approached and stood right before him. Nadia looks up maybe this is the last day she can look at the man she loves if Ikram drops his talc tonight too. Between want and not. Nadia pomegranate.
