Sorry, If I'm Two

Sorry, If I'm Two
Back to the Village



Thousands and even millions of regrets and wrong piled up on Inayah's chest, how could she betray her marriage with Liam so easily.


Although it was only a forced marriage and the result of a trap Liam created, it was still valid in the eyes of God, and their status was still husband and wife.


Inayah returns to Liam's house, packs all her belongings and leaves the house that has warmed up in the past month.


She had to leave, away from Liam, who was lying in the hospital, too embarrassed to see her husband again.


Her guilt completely covered up everything that was in her chest right now.

Three days later, Liam's condition had improved, never seen Inayah the wife came even just to visit her there.


Of course it makes Lian increasingly anxious and worried about the fear of something bad happening again to Inayah the wife.


"I want to go home, I have to go home !" said Liam got up from his bed and began to prepare to leave the room where he was in care.


"You're still weak, wait a little longer until your situation really improves," Tania's resistance that the last three days has always forced to accompany Liam there even though Liam always drove him away.


"You have no right to rule me !" ketus Liam is really upset with the attitude of Tania who continues to stick to him, lucky Liam is sick, otherwise, maybe Liam has dragged Tania out of the treatment room forcibly.


"But you're not well !" Tania held Liam's hand which grabbed the door hendle about to leave the room.


"I have to see my wife, I have to make sure nothing bad happens to her !" Liam brushed Tania's hand.


"Cih, what kind of wife is a sick husband, boro boro take care of him, he never even visited here. Be aware Wil, I'm the only one who cares about you ! I'm the only one taking care of you !" decih Tania felt she could not accept Liam still thinking about Inayah.


"I never asked to be cared for by you and I never asked you to care about me, you forced me to stay here, I was even uncomfortable being close to you !" liam Cibir.

"Nisa,, Nisa," called Liam when he got to his house, repeatedly called, his wife did not come out.


The house they occupied looked lonely, like there had never been a life before, Liam rushed into Inayah's room.


The room is neat, clean.


A stack of brown envelopes neatly arranged on the nightstand, when Liam opened, it turned out to contain the monthly money he used to give Inayah every month, then Liam opened the closet door in the room, empty ! Inayah's clothes were no longer there.


"Nisa, where are you going ? I haven't explained to you that what you saw was a misunderstanding !" muttered Liam stared at the nanar Inayah room that had been abandoned by its owner.

While in another place, Inayah was in the rice field accompanying Titin who was working on land with other mothers.


"Eh Inayah, when did it come ? Long time in the city so pangling, tambih geulis (more beautiful)" said one mother who began to climb from the rice fields he worked because it had entered lunch time.


"It's been three days ma'am" Inayah replied kindly as she prepared lunch for Titin.


"There is nothing Mak, Inayah just miss the same mother, and want a long vacation here," elak Inayah.


"It's not that mom forbids you to go home, only that you feel that you have a problem, from yesterday you often daydream," Titin said.


"Oh, why does this unlucky woman have to go back to our village anyway ? Just make a view !" cibir Esih accompanied by Yeni who had just reviewed his rice field.


"Mom, tea,!" inayah's greeting to the former mother-in-law and her former brother-in-law thrusting her hand to greet her.


"Ih, do not need to deket deket, after you leave home, our lives are much better, debt is paid off, Adit also bought us a rice field of hectares, acres of land, if we salaman the same you could be unlucky again our family life !" said Yeni with her nose and brushed aside Inayah's hand.


Inayah only sighed deeply, she did not want to argue with the two people who were always oppressing her.


"Mother mother, you know, said my sister Jamal, and said my son Adit, he was in town as the mistress of his boss, his name was Mr. Beni, he sold himself for the job of secretary plus his boss !" Esih did not want to lose the nyinyir of his favorite daughter Yeni.


"Sorry mom, don't talk like that, pity my mom has to hear such nonsense" Inayah said.


"Why, are you ashamed your mother knew your original behavior ?" hardik Esih's.


"Come on, kid, we're home. I believe you're not that kind of woman, I believe you're the woman who can keep your honor !" Titin embraces Inayah's shoulder and immediately takes her only child away.


"Preserving honor ? Instead he sold his honor in the city, just wait until Adit comes, he has proof of what I'm talking about, he said, I'll show you in front of this pompous mother and son, and all the villagers let them nyaho !" menacam Esih's.


But Titin still leads his son to leave Esih and Yeni who is still coarser to denigrate Inayah who is his former son-in-law.


"Have a son, don't mind their babble, mother believes you," Titin said encouraging her son.


Titin's words actually made Inayah's heart ache, how not, without the knowledge of her mother he was married to Liam, how not, without the knowledge of his mother, even worse, he kissed another man in the middle of his marriage with Liam which is still ongoing.


"W-what if what Esih and Yeni say is true ?" tanya Inayah is brick-styled.


"What do you mean, son ?!" Titin looked at her son's face, which immediately turned on his face as his mother's gaze pierced his heart.


"No, just ask, Mom" elak Inayah.


"Don't say that, don't make your mother sad and disappointed, you're the only treasure you have in this world" Titin's eyes glazed with glass as she hugged her child's body.


'Im sorry Inayah mak, ' said Inayah in her mind she could not help but cry in Titin's warm embrace, crying regret because she felt she had wasted the trust that Titin gave her.


"Daddy wants to stay here, mother, Inayah does not want to go to the city anymore" Inayah said in sobs.


"Emak is up to you, as long as you're comfortable and happy" Titin gently caressed her daughter's long hair.


Inayah had already made up her mind not to return to the city, and would settle in the village again, she wanted to forget all the memories that happened in the city, including forgetting Liam and also her marriage.


"Thank you, you are always the best mother for Inayah" said Inayah smiling happily.
