Surviving in Marriage
RAIHAN EXTINCTION
A few moments later, there were footsteps rushing towards the door of Arsyila's house that was still wide open. And a moment later Arsyila and Hasbi just turned their heads together towards the door which turned out to be a man who was standing on the doorstep with a very messy appearance. That man is Raihan. Seeing the arrival of Raihan who arrived - arrived it certainly made Arsyila and Hasbi shocked for a moment. Hasbi stood up straight from his seat.
While Raihan was still standing in front of the door with a crumpled face. Not only was his face tangled, his appearance was also ambiguous. Though the man always looks neat, but not this time. And the atmosphere in Arsyila's house was suddenly silent for a moment, not a word came out of their mouths. They just looked at each other until finally, Hasbi voiced out a voice.
"Arsyila, excuse me. You better solve your problems with Raihan, your husband" Hasbi said, looking at Arsyila and Raihan in turn.
"But, Hasbi.." Arsyila had not yet been able to prevent Hasbi from leaving, the man had already walked outwards with the previous time he passed Raihan and their views had clashed with each other for a second conspiracy.
After Hasbi left, Arsyila began to fidget. He is confused in his attitude. He who does not know what to do is in his house just alone with Raihan. And Raihan had walked closer and closer and seconds later had sat in front of Arsyila.
"Arsyila, I'm sorry that yesterday I didn't come back to the hospital with you. I also did not tell you after that." said Raihan who opened a chat with Arsyila. But, Arsyila did not respond to Raihan's apology at all. He prefers to look down or look the other way.
"Arshila, do you hate me so much that you don't even look at me?" raihan asked in that sad voice.
"But I can call her Arsyila. I deserve to be hated" Raihan said.
Arsyila was still silent and did not even look at Raihan. Arsyila acted as if there was no Raihan there.
"Even though you already know all about the actual incident, but I feel that you will stick with your stance from the very beginning. You definitely won't change your decision to split from me will you, Arsyila?" asked Raihan in a clear tone.
"No need to answer, because I already know the answer. Well.. I deserve all of this harsh reality. I. indeed deserve to be left behind." said Raihan who this time began to sob - sobs. The tip of Arsyila's eyes immediately glanced at Raihan who was now looking down with both hands holding his head.
"Yesterday, I chased Raina who followed Randi to the parking lot. And you know what Raina didn't say?" raihan asked and he raised his face. Arsyila was able to see how messed up Raihan was at that time, his eyes and face looked very puffy.
"Arsyila, don't you.. My sister alone, could leave me Arsyila. She prefers to go with Randi and live with the man. Turns out they have made a deal, Randi wants to admit everything on the condition that Raina must come with him. Raina firmly said that she would rather follow Randi than see me and you parting ways" Raihan said, then paused to take a deep breath.
Of course it made Arsyila a little shocked. He who did not expect at all Raina who up to the whole, willing to sacrifice herself for the same man - just as they know how she actually behaves.
"So where's Raina now?" ask Arsyila. Finally the woman made her voice too. Arsyila asked because she cared about Raina. As a fellow woman, Arsyila does not want Raina's fate to end badly if with Randi.
"I'm so sorry, Raihan. Hope Raina is well" Arsyila said with hope.
"Yes. Hopefully." answered Raihan.
"Maybe.. This is punishment for Me Arsyila, I who used to be evil with you. I'm the cause of your father's death, I've trapped you with Randi, and made him a video until finally the video spread. And I realized, this is God's reward for a depraved man like me, Arshila" said Raihan who continued to blame himself. Arsyila could see the regret from Raihan's face. Guilt that made his face look even more miserable. I don't know why there is a sense of pity and heartlessness Arsyila when seeing the state of Raihan like that.
"Yes, Arsyila.. I forgot to ask you and our baby-to-be? You guys are okay, right? You take care of your content, Asyila, as well as possible. Even if we are not together, I will still be responsible for you and our baby. I will meet all your needs, I will make sure you and our baby candidates are safe and away from bad things. Don't worry, the future of you and our baby will be bright. I'll vouch for it. But, one of my questions is Arsyila.. I beg you, if our son has grown beautiful, never tell about the depravity that his father once did to his mother, never Arsyila. I don't want my son to hate me either. Hate from you alone has made me feel broken to pieces, especially if my child also hates me. Mending I die rather than bear the hatred of the two people I love so much." explained Raihan who finally shed tears that had been reminisced in his eyes.
Again - again hearing long sentences and also watching Raihan to cry like that, able to make Arsyila's heart as if sliced - iris. But what is the power of not knowing at all what to do and say. She could only watch with her own eyes how her husband was getting more depressed because of her remorse and guilt.
"Arsyila," called Raihan in a raucous voice. Arsyila immediately raised her face and looked at Raihan's red eyes.
"I go first. And.. Take good care of yourself, even though I want to always be with you and accompany your pregnancy. But, all that is just wishful thinking - my only wish. I can only pray that you and our baby will be healthy. Just making sure of that is enough to make me happy. Even without being able to touch it." said Raihan then after that he stood up. And with that sweet smile, Raihan went from there to get out of Arsyila's house.
Seeing Raihan leave her, making Arsyila's heart suddenly become uneasy. She stood up and called her husband.
"Diamond...!!" call Arsyila. Raihan's footsteps stopped, he turned to Arsyila who was already standing with his legs and body shaking all.
"Where are you going?? You want to leave me and our baby? I can't have this pregnancy on my own..!!" arsyila said with tears flowing down her cheeks..
