The Holy Promise of Marriage

Chapters. 22. Anger of a Mother.

Hyuna looked at Aksa with nanar, especially when hearing her words made her want to go away.

"You came to pick up your wife?" aida asked sharply with a piercing look.

"Mom." Beni held the hand of the wife so as not to be ignited emotions, even though she herself also felt cold heat to see the man.

Aksa was only silent when she got a sharp glare from Hyuna's parents. He was sure that the woman must have told them everything, so behave like that.

"Kok stand up, Aksa. Here sit down, we eat together," invite Budi while sitting next to Beni.

Aksa nodded and sat down at the place, looking at Hyuna who was just silent while taking food on the plate.

"Eat."

Hyuna gave a plate of food to Aksa making her smile. He then ate the food greedily because since morning he had not eaten.

After they finished eating, they all resumed work including Hyuna who did not care about Aksa's whereabouts.

Everyone in the place continued to praise Aksa, and said that Hyuna was very lucky to be able to marry such a good-looking man.

Both of Hyuna's parents just smiled to respond to what they said, while Aksa smiled shyly when she heard everyone's praise.

"What are you doing here, Mom?" hyuna asked as the others had already left the cottage.

Aksa shifted her seat in order to get closer to Hyuna. "Mas wants to take you home, Dek. Please don't leave it like this."

"Why can't I leave you like this? You can just leave me and marry another woman, of course I can do what I want."

Aksa was speechless with what Hyuna said, while Aida and Beni were watching them from a distance.

"Is it okay Dad, let them both be like that?" Aida was upset.

"Well, no papa, ma'am. They're husband and wife,"

"Yes, mom knows. But Aksa has hurt our son, Dad. So what else did he come here for?" aida said with a fury. His heart was burning hot to see the whereabouts of the man.

"Come, Ma. We'll know why."

Beni then continues her work to get home faster, while Aida keeps a close eye on Hyuna for fear that Aksa might hurt her daughter.

"Go home, there is no point Mas is here," Hyuna said later as she got up from the place.

Aksa immediately blocked Hyuna's hand when she saw that she was leaving. "I beg you to listen to me first, Hyuna. I don't want us to be like this." He looked at the woman with sadness.

Hyuna smiled cynically while releasing Aksa's handrails. "You made us this way, Mom. So don't say no."

"I know I was wrong, Hyuna. That's why I apologized to you, and fixed everything."

Hyuna gave a rough breath. Why is Aksa still bothering him like this? Didn't he just walk away from their lives, and give it all up?

"Already, Mas. I don't want to talk about a problem I've forgotten, and I don't want to hear from you anymore either."

Aksa looked at Hyuna with nanar. How could that woman be so stubborn? Did Hyuna really want to part from him?

Hyuna's steps came to a halt when she heard Aksa's words, she then turned around and looked at the man intently.

Some people around them began to notice Beni immediately invited his wife to come home.

"Take Hyuna and her husband home, Mom."

Aida nodded and immediately approached Hyuna, she then invited her son to come home. So too with Aksa.

Arriving at home, they all sat in the living room. It was seen Aksa bowing her head in front of both Hyuna's parents.

"We've heard everything from Hyuna, Aksa. Is it true that you married again without your wife's knowledge?"

Aksa nodded his head immediately. "Sorry, Dad. I was forced to do that because of my mother's coercion, she wanted me to have a child soon."

"So, you think my daughter can't have children?" aida asked with trembling lips.

Aksa shook her head. "It's not like that, Mom. It's just that we've been married for 4 years, but Hyuna isn't pregnant yet."

"The child is a gift from God, Aksa. We as human beings cannot manage it, all we can do is pray and try."

Aksa was silent when she heard the words of her father-in-law, while Hyuna was silent and reluctant to make a sound.

"Already, Aksa. It had all happened like this, and Hyuna also did not want to continue her marriage. Maybe that's what's best for you guys."

Aksa immediately looked at her in-laws sharply. "But I don't want to, Dad. I don't want to part with Hyuna!"

"Don't be a greedy human being, Aksa!" aida's snapping made everyone jump in shock. "You've decided to marry another woman without thinking about your wife's own feelings, and now you don't want to let go. What exactly do you want? Do you want to have two women at once?"

Aksa gasped at what her in-laws were saying. All these years she had been Hyuna's husband, it was only this first time that she saw the anger of her mother-in-law.

"I, I didn't mean it that way, Mom."

"Everything you do has consequences, Aksa. You should think about that before you decide to remarry, because no one woman wants to share a husband with another woman," Aida said excitedly.

"So stop, Aksa. Let my daughter seek her own happiness and escape suffering. Please have mercy on her a little, please."

Aida cupped both hands in front of the chest making Aksa flinch, while Hyuna instantly calmed her mother down.

"What did Mom do? Don't be like this, Mom."

Aida shook her head. "You used to ask Hyuna nicely, so please kindly give her back, Aksa. Mom's heart hurts so much with what you did to her, please let go of Hyuna."
