That Cute Woman is my wife

Why Not Blame Me?

Ibrahim's condition is calmer now since the arrival of Shella. The man did not refuse when the medicine was put into his body. All the time he was just smiling. Shella's influence is incredible. The woman was able to make the soul of a mad man calm down.

Akemi and Shella have returned to their home. After persuading Ibrahim with various persuasions, Shella was finally allowed to go home by the man.

Shella entered the room, while Akemi headed for the kitchen to fetch some drinking water. The memory of Nisa's words was always ringing in her head. Is he going to tell Shella about Ibrahim's true condition? is the woman ready to accept the truth?

Before long Shella came and hugged Akemi from behind. Akemi was quite surprised by Shella's attitude.

"Are you thinking about something?" Shella asked as she hugged Akemi's body. Akemi turned her body to face Shella.

Akemi looked into Shella's eyes, the look of those eyes implying sadness. Shella's forehead shriveled in question.

"What's wrong? are you sick? why is your face pale?" shella asked worriedly.

"I'm okay baby, I'm just a little tired" Akemi replied as she hugged Shella's body.

"All right, now we rest first. Maybe you're tired of waiting too long. I'm sorry, huh?" lirih Shella at the end of her sentence. Akemi took off her embrace while smiling.

"I'm fine baby, I'm glad your relationship is finally okay. Gradually he will accept you as his sister" Akemi explained with a hint of regret. Yes, Akemi feels regret for not being able to be honest about Ibrahim's true condition to Shella.

"Yes, I hope so. He will definitely recover and find another woman to marry later." Akemi's heart was pinched many times over when she saw the hollow hope of Shella's face. The woman hoped Ibrahim would recover and marry another woman. But that will never happen. Because God has deflected the fate of the poor man.

"Shella, there's something I want to tell you" Akemi hesitated. The man still seemed to think, whether he would tell Ibrahim's condition or even keep the secret alone.

Akemi thought for a long time, she finally came to the point of conclusion, under which she had to tell Shella. If she finds out too late, she'll blame Akemi for being dishonest one day.

"Whatis that? it seems very important" replied Shella. The woman's heart was beating fast. He could feel something different this time. Akemi's gaze was like she was hiding something painful.

"Actually Ibrahim suffered a late-stage malignant tumor in his head," said Akemi finally after a long silence.

Deg, man,

"A-what? you're kidding, aren't you, baby? you're not serious, are you? tell me, you're just kidding, right?" Shella's whole body was shaking. The world of women stopped for a moment. Malignant tumor? how come? Abraham is a very strong man. Why did he get that deadly disease? thought Shella.

Shella's body drooped weakly and fell to the floor. Suddenly her crying broke. He cried and roared as if blaming himself.

"No, that can't happen. Hu, hu, Brother Ibrahim... This is all my fault. I made him become like this. He's crazy because of me, and now he has this disease because of me, all because of me. If only I hadn't abandoned him and would have fought together. He's not gonna be like this, hu, hu, hu."

Deg, man,

What did Shella say? all because? does Shella regret her marriage to Akemi? why should he regret his decision that he did not want to fight with Ibrahim? is Akemi worthless in her eyes?

"Shella, you're not wrong about this. Everything is destiny. You can't blame yourself" Akemi said. She tries to calm Shella who continues to blame her for Ibrahim's condition. However, to be honest Akemi was harboring something that was struggling inside there. His heart was wounded when he heard the statement of Shella who regretted not fighting with Ibrahim first. Does that mean that Shella is also regretting her marriage with Akemi?

"No Akemi, this is my fault. I am the main cause of this. I drove Ibrahim crazy and got sick. Hu, hu, hu, I was wrong, I was wrong." Shella continued to scream and blame herself. Akemi is fed up with Shella's attitude. Finally the man raised his voice and snapped at Shella. The first thing the man did.

"Shella Enough, enough! all right, you're wrong on this. You are the one who caused Ibrahim to go mad and get sick. Then what about me? wasn't it because of my presence that you chose to stop fighting for your love for her? because I shifted Ibrahim's position in your heart, because I fell in love with you with all my heart and chose to marry you. Why don't you just get me wrong, huh? why choose to blame yourself? if I were not present among you, maybe that love would not be extinct. I can see how much Ibrahim loves you. He's even willing to be a crazy man for your love. But isn't it that even if I'm not present among you, the relationship is still wrong? because you are brothers." Akemi let out all her hidden heart. All this time she chose silence, but this time Shella had to accept reality. Although it's bitter.

Shella did not answer, she could only cry. However, in her little heart the woman confirmed Akemi's words.

"Hoo, hu, hu. What have I done? why is everything like this? please forgive me. I became a selfish woman. I'm sorry, hu, hu, hu." Akemi's heart is broken when she sees Shella's miserable condition. He did not blame the woman. He only regrets the attitude of Shella who seems to blame their marriage.

"Sst, relax, baby. All men will return to their creator when the time has come. Not you, not me, not Abraham. Everything will come back. We just have to wait for time. So stop blaming yourself, em?" Akemi hugs Shella's body while kissing the top of her head. So much affection Akemi has for Shella. Although not as much as Ibrahim's love for the woman. But, she'll never take Shella's hand off. The hand she had tied through the sacred bond of marriage.

"I'm sorry Akemi, I'm sorry. I've hurt you. I don't think about how you feel. I'm sorry, hu, hu, hu." Shella regretted her words. He had no intention of hurting Akemi. He was just too shocked by the endless events coming his way.

"You don't blame yourself, baby, you're just shaken by what you heard. We're gonna face this together, em?" It cannot be expressed in words how kind a heart Akemi. She is the most beautiful gift from God to Shella. The two men's parents educated Akemi very well, so that she became a person who is forgiving and understanding. Are parents not the greatest teachers of their children? so be a wise parent in addressing every event, in order to create a virtuous and noble-hearted child.
