The Second Wife

Part 113Aware of the Heart

(So if this part makes you disappointed 🙏😔)

The footsteps grew further away, leaving the man who was now staring at his back. The woman was powerless to be on the side of the man who in reality did not love her. In the past, he was so happy that he forgot the fact that said 'God is All-Turning the hearts of men'.

It was at this moment that he realized, and when everything was gone. The child in the womb of the friend is taken away by his mother, who is none other than his own friend. During this time, he also did not actually stay silent. He always asked his mother and father about Yasmine's whereabouts.

But, they were always silent about the existence of Yasmine. Even mom and dad always say, "already. He is happy, you too must be happy. You're still brothers."

He smiled cynically, his head hurt as the tears flowed. Now he has returned to his room. Shut up, enjoy the rain. Tonight, he will always remember, that he is not the love of a husband who looks so fond of him.

Yes, love without love. Ah, if you remember why it hurts so much. Has he loved this man all alone?

"Honey," the embrace and the call no longer reached his heart, he felt the call was bland.

"Why is it here, I don't want you to get sick." Alfie hugged his wife. He knew his love was greater for Yasmine, but, now his wife is not Alifa, so he should be able to let the woman know that she would stay by his side.

"I also don't want you to get sick, until it's this simple." Alifa raised her husband's hand which was getting thinner and thinner. Often sick and, he is very sure that the husband clearly misses the existence of a distant child with his mother.

Alfin drowned his face behind his wife's neck. "I'm sorry if the feeling I have is no longer full, but you should know that I can't leave you either. You know, honestly I can't be far from you and her, but .. what's my day when she won't be with me anymore."

"It's because he didn't want to hurt me, but I did" Alifa said.

"I'm enough, honey, please. What would I do if you two were like this?" alfin asked confusedly.

"Find him, Mas. I want to see you" said Alifa again.

"I can't, honey. You clearly know why."

Mum. Both are silent. Dive into each other's minds.

...----------------...

Until the afternoon, the hot sun is still visible even though it rained overnight until the morning. She was sitting on the living room couch, despite last night between herself and her husband talking to each other about feelings, but in fact, Alfin was acting as usual this morning to her.

During these three months, Alfin did still give him a living, from birth to mind, it was no different as before. Maybe that changed only the time, now the man prefers to be alone at night.

A man who cannot be angry with him, a man who even though he has told him to leave but still wants to be with him. Which can only give a sense of comfort, without being loved.

Alifa exhaled a rough breath, she was imagining now that Yasmine's stomach must have grown. If only he were still in that house. Obviously Alifa will be very happy, even with her husband. But baby, again it's all just wanted.

When her husband came home, she was still sitting there. Greet with a smile and extend a hand as soon as the husband is seen. Alifa moved, intending to go to the kitchen to make tea. But, his hands were hunted down by the husband.

"But you want some warm tea, right? Let me make it" he said, staring at the husband's face.

Alfin shook his head, "I want to apologize. If for three months you have been tormented by everything I have done" he said sincerely.

This day, Alfin thought hard. He has lost his love, so he cannot lose his comfort.

Alifa shook her head, "i am not tormented, Mas. I just feel sorry for you. Because, I'm a barrier to your first love."

Alfin pulled Alifa by the hand and the wife sat on his lap. "You're not a hindrance to me and him. And, he is also not a barrier between me and you. How can I explain that you are equally valuable to me. And I've said many times I wouldn't be able to choose, just why I let go. It was all because it was his wish. Come, Honey. You understand this."

Alfin explained at length. That's exactly what it is. "In Shaa Allaah, I will not do anything that makes your heart ache. I'm sorry once again, honey," he said sincerely.

"Yes, we better not talk about this" Alfin said.

Alifa just nodded her head. Because it was true what her husband said. All this at the request of the friend, so, what now must he also give up and leave a good husband, who still gives a living, never kdrt to him? Care what about love, if in fact comfort is more important.

Finally, Alifa agreed to what her husband said. Yes, they have been together for a long time, and why discuss again the article of taste that is difficult to forget.

...----------------...

Until finally, slowly, day by day through a couple who have lived together for so long. Although a week ago they had a little problem, but the next day is no more language like that time.

Both of them received their hearts again. Because that's the truth that exists. Although between Alfin and Alifa was not informed of Yasmine's news. But at times like this, Alfin still gave money to prepare for Yasmine's labor.

Even Alfin had already talked about this to his wife. Article gives money every month later for his son, although his whereabouts are still unknown to them.

As much as the sacrifice of Alifa loved her husband, loved her so full, until finally she got happiness because the husband returned like before. Although I don't know in the feelings in the man's heart, what he cares about is his attitude and responsibility.

Even lately Alfin often takes her out to both enjoy their time. There's nothing more to think about or worry about. Because in reality, everything is fine. Three families remained safe, though one of them stayed away.

They all agreed, because that was his life choice. The life choices of young women who are now widows.

...----------------...

Sorry if I didn't connect, I couldn't get Alfin and Alifa to fight. Because their characters are not the ones who like to shout² just because of emotions. Let them be happy huh, and Yasmine is happy too. Sorry to be disappointed 🙏🙏🙏

Seriously can't take 🥲.
