The Chosen Heart Part 2

Dani's point of view: Dani's story about Anindita

If only Dani could lie about Anindita, it would have done.

Dani will never honestly tell her past with Anindita, never will. But the woman came. Not just a guest, he was even acting strange, which made Isna wonder.

Dani could feel Isna being greatly affected by Dita's arrival.

" I'm still waiting." Isna said, she was waiting for an explanation from Dani about Anindita.

Isna was talking herself into 'me'. But he has never been like that before.

" You really want to know?" Dani is so wrong.

" Do not keep asking. Just answer my question."

How can Dani answer it, if his past with Dita is a past that even Dani himself does not want to remember him anymore. There was a fatal mistake they had made. Although they are separated not because of their wishes, but in fact destiny brings Dani to realize that his past must be buried deeply, not to be open. Especially until it is known by the person who became his future, his beloved wife.

Finally Dani decided to tell about Anindita, hopefully Isna can accept it.

" Aa and Anindita used to be one school, High School, In Surabaya. Aa is her High School in Surabaya. We meet, keep falling in love and dating."

Dani stops the story, waiting for Isna's reaction, but Isna is silent, her face does not show any change.

" Anindita's parents disagree. And separate us by sending Anindita school out of the country."

Dani stopped again. This time it completely stopped, as Dani had no intention of getting any more sentences out of her mouth.

" That's all?" Isna asked, her eyes looking at Dani in disbelief.

Dani nodded quickly, "Yes, that's all."

" Well," Isna stood up from her seat, then walked away from Dani without saying anything.

" Neng, where are you going?" dani's hand caught his wife's hand.

Isna stopped her steps, turned to Dani, then said, sirih but was able to hit Dani's chest. "You say goodbye, I'm going to my mom's house. Can you?"

"Kok suddenly?" Dani was astonished, mixed unsettled. Something must have been very disturbing Isna's mind.

" why? Weirdo? No right? Suddenly I miss my mom. Can ya?"

That's not a permit request. What Isna conveys is more about the delivery of intent, not the request for permission. It seems, not allowed even Isna will still go, will force until allowed.

" Can I, Aa between ya?"

" No need, I want to go on a ride."

" Ojol's ride time? What if mom and dad ask."

" I just told you Aa hasn't come home yet."

" Don't be alone dong Neng... Aa's worried..."

Isna answered nothing. He just left Dani.,

Dani could only shake her head. It's amazing that Isna's snatching. Dani opened her phone, called Arif.

After calling, Dani went to see Pri. Someone wants him to know, why Isna can be like that attitude to Dani. What Dani told me is true. Does Isna know the truth that Dani is covering up? He deliberately acted like he did not know, to test Dani's honesty. To the point where this husband dared to tell the truth, tell all his past, to the ugliest though.

" Sir, can I talk to you for a minute?" Dani finds Pri's mother in her room, watching television, drinking tea.

" Oh, may I." Pri invited Dani in.

" But for a minute, I'm going to go ahead first." Dani remembered that Isna had not been parting.

Under the stairs Dani met Isna.

" Aa, Isna's back at Mama's house."

" Don't stay?"

" Malem will also be home."

Isna stretched out her right hand, and so did Dani. Then Isna kissed Dani's back.

" So ojol's message?"

" Yes." Yeah."

Dani takes Dani to the terrace. Waiting for a few minutes, finally the protuberance that was waiting came.

" Wa'alaykumussalam, greetings to my mother and father."

" Yes." Yeah."

Dani waved her hand. But Isna did not respond at all.

After Isna was not seen again Dani immediately entered, meet Mbak Pri.

" What do you want to say?"

" Sir, I know Pri, I know that Pri's mother knows what I want to talk about."

" About Anindita?"

" yes. What does Isna know about Anindita ?"

" Why, did you ask me? How do I know Mas?"

" Well, maybe Mommy told me all about me and Dita."

" Astagfirullah, Dani. I wouldn't do that Mas. It's none of my business, and it's not in my interest to tell Mas's past that's the same Isna. I'm aware of the risk, mas."

" I'm sorry, sorry. I'm not accusing, I'm just confused, why does it look like Isna doesn't believe in my answer, if I'm the same Dita ever dating, just that. Why does it seem like he's still upset ?"

" Mum, the instinct of the woman is sometimes sharp, can feel something is wrong with her partner, although have not seen any evidence. Or maybe also, mbak Isna still baper see the woman, whose style is extraordinary, make the wife mas Dani feel rivaled."

" sthat mean?"

" If Dani want to know the details better ask mbak Isna directly. Unfortunately for Isna, she is still Dani's wife. Especially if she is pregnant. So wait for tomorrow. Look, and ask me again, actually he's why. If I can give you advice anyway better mas Dani just tell me everything, honestly. Let nothing else get in the way."

" What? Telling everything? I can't seem to."

" Can't or won't?"

Dani was silent, pondering Pri's question.

" Want to hear my opinion?"

"Can, what?"

" The woman, Anindita, has come to this house, without invitation, without anyone expecting. I can guess what that means. Maybe, this might be you know, he really wants to make Isna disturbed. And it proved, it worked. It's not impossible that tomorrow he will come again, and make the next breakthrough, tell your story, which Mas Dani does not want Isna to know."

" What if it happens?"

Dani was stunned to hear Mbak Pri's words. Dani didn't think at all. It could be, It could be Dita will come again, and tell the story.

Whatever Dani closes it, it turns out the story should be open as well.

This was completely unexpected for Dani.

A dozen years Anindita never heard of. They broke up as girlfriends, and also broke up. Anindita is swallowed by the earth, vanished. Take away Dani's heart that is filled with love.

Breaking the imagination of a teenager who just knew love.

Dani is sick, not accepting, angry, disappointed. His life is almost ruined, if no hand of a Ustadz reaches him and leads him, maybe Dani has gone the wrong way.

The painful past. And it would hurt Isna if Isna had known it.

But as Mbak Pri just said, if the story was conveyed to Isna through Anindita's narration, what would happen?

Will Isna be angry because she thinks her husband is dishonest?.

Or can accept with a big heart, and consider it just a part of Dani's past, which has passed?

Dani is afraid of the first possibility that will happen .

But hiding it continues, even though Isna has seen some of it, can you?

Dani hasn't decided yet.

His mind is still dead.
