Take Back My Husband

For me, It's Not Over

"That divorce suit from Lea Miranda's sister, Arya Wiguna's chief brother has been granted."

"The custody of ananda Darrel Agra and also of Jihan Shafia completely falls to Lea Miranda's sister."

"All the demands of Lea Miranda's sister, Arya Wiguna, have been approved."

What Leah never wanted in life is happening. And what Arya was so afraid of, also happened.

A divorce!

After going through some thrilling processes, even in each process Arya hopes Lea changes her mind. However, her mistress has now reached the point where the judge ruled that they have officially divorced, which is followed by a hammer tap. And Lea got everything she wanted.

No one was happy about the divorce, not even with Lea herself as the plaintiff.

The woman just sat in her chair with a puddle of tears that she tried to endure, but she failed. Her tears fell and flowed down her cheeks.

While Arya can only stare at a sad smile while staring at the wedding ring that is still coiled on her ring finger.

Recollected when he tied the knot with Lea on their wedding day, accompanied by a smile, happy laughter, and also the cry of haru.

Then now, all of that ended in a pain that was so stifling to the chest.

Arya's parents were present to witness the divorce, Ms. Erma couldn't even hold back her tears seeing her son and daughter-in-law's life destroyed.

Ms. Erma loved Lea as much as she loved Arya, let alone Lea treating them like real parents.

"They need time" said Pak Jaya who looked at Lea and Arya both speechless. "We'll wait in the car!"

Ms. Erma nodded, she came out first from the courtroom.

Lea wiped her tears, she took a breath before finally getting out of her chair. Lea approached Arya who was still sitting limp as if powerless, the man lowered his head deeply.

"Want lunch?" lea asked suddenly which made Arya look up straight away.

"Maybe we can eat something cold right now" Lea said. "My heart feels so hot." Lea's voice choked in her throat, tears fell back but she immediately wiped them away.

"You want some ice cream?" bargain Arya with a raucous voice, restraining the rumble in her chest. "When Darrel and Jihan are having a snack, ice cream is always a bribe that promises to improve their mood."

Lea held back a smile and nodded.

The two men who have now officially become ex walked side by side out of the courtroom, they tried to stay strong stepping on legs that felt very weak.

"Take my car" Lea said. "Let mama and go home first, pity the kids at home just like Auntie."

Arya nodded obediently.

They went together, just the two of them. And this was the first time they had gone both after their household was fractured.

Lea took Arya to one of the cafes not far from the court, and she ordered two chocolate-flavored ice creams.

"I forgot when was the last time I had ice cream" Arya chuckled as their order came along.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, but they tried to be ordinary even though everything was indeed very unusual.

Both of them were equally silent, while stirring ice cream which was actually not at all interesting for Lea to taste, especially for Arya.

"I'M SORRY."

Somehow, the two people suddenly said the same word and at the same time.

"I'm sorry" Lea said later.

"I'm the one who's sorry," Arya replied while shaking her head. "All my fault, I failed to look after our family like I promised before."

"I also failed to take care of our family" Lea replied. "I also promise never to leave you under any circumstances, but in fact I can't keep that promise."

"It all started with me." Arya looked at Lea closely. "If I could keep my promise, you would still keep your promise. I'm the root of all the damage in our household."

Lea lowered her head while rubbing her eyes, tears piled up again in the woman's eyes.

"I'm sorry for all my words that might hurt" Lea said sincerely. "And thank you so much for being there for me for 15 years." Lea's voice choked again in the last sentence.

Fifteen years, they've been together for as long as it turns out.

"You're a good friend and companion" added Lea who tried to strengthen her own heart. "Even though I had no one left after my parents' death, you were there until I forgot that I was just a kara."

"I love you."

Lea was stunned to hear Arya's declaration of love.

"I love you so much, so I won't let you feel alone" Arya added with a wry smile. "But it turns out there was a time where I forgot myself, followed lust and got rid of my common sense, until I forgot that I loved you."

Lea did not respond to what her ex-husband said, she actually began to enjoy the ice cream that had melted.

"Frequently playing at home with the children," Pinta Arya who is still trying to act ordinary, even though her chest is tight. "Since you left home, I've wanted to learn how to cook by myself, but until now I've only been able to cook easily."

"Feel the house much healthier" said Lea lirih.

"One day, I hope you'll teach me how to cook. The kids love your cooking, Lea, she says it's delicious."

Lea nodded with a faint smile.

The atmosphere was quiet again, and the two men were now stabbing their ice cream had melted.

"Wanna go home?" lea asked after the ice cream ran out.

"Do you think it's over?" Arya actually asked a different question, again making Lea frowned confused.

"What?" ask Lea.

"Did this divorce make it all over?" Arya's voice trembled, and Lea could only fall silent.

Is it all over now?

"For me it's not over yet" said Arya then who made Lea frown more confused. "You are my first love, Lea, and I will make you my last love as well."
