Surviving in Marriage

CONTRITION

Raihan stood in front of the door of Arsyila's treatment room, his face looking sad with a glaring eye. He heard all the things that they were talking about in there about all his evil deeds against Arshila.

Raihan really never thought it would be like this, even if it never crossed his mind there would be a huge misunderstanding in his life. That revenge he had long planned, ended in this unexpected turn of events.

Looking back, remembering what he had done to Arsyila, made his whole body feel helpless. How not, Arsyila is also his father. They are just victims. Victims of the real criminal.

Raihan did not stop cursing himself in his heart, over the misunderstanding that had been lingering in him for years. And right now, what could he do again other than regret his actions and apologize to Arsyila and her family??

Actually was.. There is a sense of desire in Raihan's heart to enter the treatment room Arsyila and apologize directly to his wife, but it is undeniable also at this time his ego is still very high. He couldn't have done that in front of his family, sister and best friend Arsyila. Where is his pride? Even though he knew that he was wrong and maybe this time began to arise a sense of regret in his heart, but still he did not want to risk his pride. Raihan was still weighing this, so he decided to send his father first to talk to Arsyila. He will apologize, but only alone. Not witnessed by anyone.

Raihan does not know what his next fate is, hearing the words Hasby and Ardan who want to imprison him is enough to make Raihan a little afraid. Although he felt he deserved the punishment, but again his ego seemed to rebel all that. He didn't want to waste his life locked behind bars for years. Even though he had a fortune and could hire a lawyer to defend him, still.. His name is no longer good, people already consider him a criminal.

While inside, they were all still waiting for an answer from Arsyila. Because Arsyila who never let out a voice, Aditia again said something to her daughter-in-law.

"Archila... After this, Papa will tell Raihan to meet you and apologize directly to you. And Papa please.. Your tender heart will be open to forgive all Raihan's faults.." Aditia.

"No need, Pa. I don't want to see him again." Arsyila immediately replied with a flat face. Aditia was immediately confused by the answer of her daughter-in-law.

"Why Arsyila? Raihan is still your husband, why don't you want to see him again?" Ask Aditia.

"Pa.. Maybe on paper we are husband and wife. But, beyond that we are no more like strangers who do not know each other and even he had time to consider me as his enemy that must be destroyed. And.. Back to her intention to marry me for what? Because revenge is not, even though the grudge has been wrongly targeted. It won't change anything.." Arsyila clearly with a faint smile.

"So you mean, you're going to part with Raihan? Then you won't forgive Raihan, son?" Ask Aditia in a loud voice. However, he still hopes that Arsyila still stays with Raihan. Arsyila whom he had considered as his own son, the son of his best friend since childhood. He who had not had time to give happiness to his daughter-in-law that even made Arshila suffer for the actions of his own son.

"I think Om already knows what the answer is. What's clear is that we're going to make a report to imprison Raihan after that we're going to help Arsyila's divorce proceedings with Raihan." Hasby said, speaking up again.

"You're not going to imprison Raihan, are you Arsyila?" Not caring about Hasby's statement, Aditia then asked Arsyila with a worried face.

"Om, of course, Raihan should go to jail." Maida does not want to lose and chimed in.

"I'm not asking you guys, I'm asking with my daughter-in-law!" Aditia said with a little annoyance.

"That's a question that doesn't need to be answered anymore. It's obvious the answer is yes, isn't it Arsy's sister?" Said Ardan immediately turned to Arsyila who was still silent. Aditia immediately stared intently at Arsyila as if she was waiting for a direct answer from Arsyila's mouth.

"Sorry, Pa.. Maybe as time goes on, I can forgive him but the legal process will continue as well as the divorce.." Finally Arsyila answered Aditia's question in a loud voice.

"Yes, that's right. Raihan should be punished. He deserves the reward for his actions." Maida said with a satisfied smile.

"Archila.. Are you sure you want to imprison Raihan?" Aditia pressed Arsyila again.

"Yes, Miss Arsy, what the hell? If the brother still imprisoned Bang Raihan, just like the brother is also evil because it has held a grudge with bang Raihan. Divorced.. Divorce it but don't report it to the police at all." Raina, who had been a listener since then, now finally dared to let out her thin voice.

"Well, how come I??" Raina's face immediately changed hearing the words from Ardan.

"It's been.. It's been.. You guys don't argue." Aditia said that Ardan and Raina are still wanting to continue their debate.

"Arsyila, Papa please.. You think again this is all right. Do not rush into making decisions let alone be affected by something that is not from your heart.." Aditia said with a cynical look at Hasby.

"What does Om mean? Um think we're the ones who've had a bad influence on Arsyila, don't you think?" Asked Hasby who was offended by her words just now. Aditia immediately stared intently at Hasby who had always been determined to imprison her son.

"I'm talking to my daughter-in-law! Not with you. So please, be polite a little." Aditia said she looked upset because Hasby had chimed in with Asryila.

"Arsyila's not Om's son-in-law anymore. She's about to get divorced from that bad guy, that asshole didn't deserve to be Arsy's husband." Hasby said that made Aditia immediately glared at her eyes because she was holding back emotions. Arsyila who had just been silent to hear them all say to each other, finally returned to voice her voice.

"It's been.. It's been..!! Hasby, it's.." Arsyila instantly coded Hasby so that the man would calm down a little and no longer corner his in-laws. Then Arsyila turned to Aditia.

"Pa, I'll consider all this first, I'll think about it, so I can't make any decisions right now." Finally cut off Arsyila.

"Consider what else is Arsyila? O Allah.. There's nothing you need to think about Arsyi. Just go and imprison him." Hasby said with annoyance. He then looked sharply at Aditia, he felt furious because the persuasion from Aditia even made Arsyila's heart melt and wanted to consider it. How could Hasby not feel indignant and upset by Arsyila's decision?

While outside Raihan is still faithfully waiting and also eavesdropping on all their talks. Raihan can see for himself how the woman he has hurt is still willing to forgive him and even consider imprisoning him. But if Arsyila wanted to, she could just drag herself into jail. There was already plenty of evidence he could use back then to imprison Raihan. But, he hasn't done that. He's still considering it.

At that moment, Raihan felt a deep regret for wasting such a kind and gentle woman as Arsyila. Raihan.. Why all this was only revealed after he made Arsyila sick for his actions. If only.. This secret he knew before it all happened.. It must not be like this the end of her marriage to Arsyila.

Raihan was still busy with his mind and heart that was shrouded in regret that increasingly tortured him, until he did not realize there was someone walking towards the exit. Seconds later, someone opened the door. Raihan who was still standing in front of the door, was immediately shocked when a face full of anger was immediately caught by his eyes. Their eyes flashed for a few seconds until finally.. A powerful punch directly landed onto Raihan's face. Not just once, but many times...
