The Little Wife of Arsen

S2: Divorce Honesty

"After rethinking, it feels like you do not agree that you do not admit this mas"

Arsen. He knew convincing his parents would not be as easy as he imagined. If only Alea hadn't come, I would've turned him down raw. Arsen understood very well what he was doing now was a mistake for both times in the same way. But losing Alea felt even more frightening to him.

"Bun"

"Listen to you" said Mother. Her voice was soft with fear that Alea who was still in the room could hear their conversation now. "You know and are aware of that lie that was the beginning of the destruction of your household. And now, you still want to do the same thing mas?"

Arsen did not answer. Is correct. The lies he committed were the beginning of the destruction of their household. It would be foolish to make the same mistake a second time. Although the fear of losing Alea he ponder as deep as possible, but honesty still lost and Arsen still remained tight for his initial plan.

"Dad doesn't agree either"

"Dad" whine Arsen. If both parents disagree, Arsen no longer knows what to do.

Amel, who was sitting right next to his son, rubbed the back of his son's hand gently. No parent is happy to see his son sad, but that does not mean he also agrees to hurt the daughter of others with lies back.

"Yesterday Alea still had her friends to know everything. There's still room for him to go. But now mas? You involved everyone. When Alea found out, there was no longer any place she was going. You will regret it more than yesterday"

Arsen. Unfortunately, everything you say is the truth. He involved everyone, involving Gita and Keke, if it was like this then there was no place for Alea to survive. There was no guarantee when it happened that he could hold Alea by his side. If something bad happens, then there will only be worse regrets than before.

***

There was only a smile that Arsen was showing right now. He still does not know where he will explain everything, because if one thing is discussed, it is, it would then continue until the accident and would end up with Alea who would probably be in pain from trying to remember everything.

Arsen slightly bent over to align his face with Alea's "You're afraid you still have the same feeling as Dira, hmm?"

"still. I don't remember anything"

"Not trying to remember everything now Al" tightened his grip, they again walked to enjoy the silence tonight both "Because I'm going to help you remember everything"

What you said earlier, really unable for Arsen to think of as the wind and then just like that. Everything's true.

"Decks"

"Yes?"

"If one day we had a big fight until divorce because you can't forgive me. Then, a few years later we meet again, and I invite you to make a reference. You want?"

A small rarity now sounded breaking the silence between them. Arsen felt that the fingers that were linked to his finger were now getting tighter.

"Why laugh?" asked Arsen confused. Again and again, Alea's laughter seemed to bewitch her to come smile.

"Your question is strange. If it's a problem, Dira. Just so you can forget him. I can apologize. Is this Arsen's little wife?"

Arsen agreed. That was also the sentence he heard from Alea 5 years ago. "If we get divorced? You want to marry me again?"

"We've really never been divorced?"

For the second time, Arsen stopped. He led Alea to sit in this almost deserted garden chair, while he crouched down in front of Alea.

For a moment her head lowered against Alea's thigh before finally returning straight as an Arsen rub was felt behind her head.

There was a sense of being unable to tell the truth out of fear that Alea would walk away from her. Then, re-establish themselves when the mother's speech crossed the head. He should be honest now.

"Mas"

Arsen knew he looked weak in Alea's eyes now. Even the tears had now filled both of his eyes.

"Mas. We really ever got divorced? But why?"

"Promise first, ja.. Don't leave me Al"

"Mas"

Arsen's eyes were closed as Alea wiped away the trace of her tears. Alea was still in front of him now, yet his body was already shaking violently just by imagining Alea was about to leave as he said everything honestly. At the same time, Arsen lost his ex-wife.

"We once divorced deck" the phrase finally came out. Arsen was resigned if Alea would be silent while walking alone towards the mother's house. Pretending not to hear what he said because Alea also did not remember anything.

Then, all of that turned out to be just Arsen's shadow. Her cries broke as her body was pulled and ended up inside Alea's warm embrace. The cry that had been detained since, finally broke out in front of loved ones.

"I don't remember anything. I don't remember we were divorced. Maybe I'll remember later, but..."

Their hugs stretched out, Alea's hand rubbed Arsen's cheek again. "I really appreciate what you said that we wanted to start from the beginning. From the wedding. That means because you are responsible for not bringing a woman who has not been legal as your wife back to our house in Jakarta. I like the way you'd prefer to take me to my mother's house"

Arsen's heart warmed up instantly.

"For divorce reasons, I don't want to know right now. Because my head hurts so much now"

With a worried face, Arsen immediately sat on Alea's left side. His hand rubbed Alea's head gently with a worried look "We're just going home? Oh naw. Let's go to the hospital"

Alea shook her head while smiling "I still want to walk the same way as you."

"Al"

"We puterin park once, huh? I have been really interested from a long time ago. But I dare not talk to you"

Arsen. Feeling guilty with her cold attitude first until Alea felt disinclined just to ask for company to walk in the park.

"If it hurts. We go straight home on deck"

Alea nodded "OK" he replied as he smilingly looked at Arsen's face.

"Why am I smiling so much?"

"Gemes saw the mas until it cried so. Just smile"

"Seneng see mas sad?"

"No. Seneng because I feel loved very much the same mas"

Both are laughing at the same time. Unknowingly Arsen was about to kiss Alea on the forehead if she did not stand up.

"Say we're divorced, right? It means it's not halal. Can't smell"

Both are laughing at the same time. New activities they never did.
