The Second Wife

Part 087 # Asking for Advice

As Alfin thought, this afternoon after lunch in the office he immediately paid a farewell to his secretary, he then went to his parents' house to discuss the problems he was facing with his second wife.

Without knowing if now, his first wife was thinking about the problems that befell the husband. The woman was in the middle of being devastated because she could not do anything.

Wanted to go to Yasmine's house, but it was hard to get permission. Even if at home, he will be in a state of confusion. It's really a dilemma now. And all she could do was do'a, so that her bad thoughts would not happen.

Somewhere else. Alfin had just arrived at the old man's house. He sat down with Umi and Abi. He has been suguhi drinks as well as nagasari cake made by Umi which is still warm. The distinctive smell of banana leaves goes into his sense of smell. However, because he was not in the mood so he ignored the food.

"What's up, Al?" ask Abi. The middle-aged man clearly knew that the son was in trouble, because if there was no problem there was no way he could come alone.

"Yasmine asked me to let go of her, Bi," she replied slowly.

"Astaghfirullah," said Umi and Abi simultaneously. "Why?" ask Umi.

"Of course, all he said was he didn't want to share," Alfin explained.

"You took it off?" ask Abi.

Alfin shakes.

"Thank God" said Umi. "Have you asked me, Al? Maybe he just needs attention. A pregnant woman usually needs more attention" continued Umi.

"He just said that neither he nor Alifa wanted to share. And he asked me to let him go" Alfin said.

Abi exhaled a rough breath. The man, who was no longer young, leaned his back against the back of the sofa. His old net was closed.

Silent. Both Abi, Umi and Alfin were silent. No one is talking. Until Abi re-establishes his seat and looks at the son. "You know, Al. Facing one woman is difficult, especially with two women at once" said the old man.

"That's why, first Umi told you to think first everything well, carefully. Because it's like this at last" continued Umi.

"You need to talk good, Al. You really have to be patient if you don't want to obey Yasmine's wishes" Abi said.

"I definitely don't want to, Bi. I can't separate the two of them" Alfin said in frustration.

"Facing Yasmine it takes a lot of extra patience, unlike when you face Alifa," said Umi. "They're both different characters. If you find cuteness, fussiness, crowds while with Yasmine, you won't find her while with Alifa. The opposite, Al. You won't find maturity when you're with Yasmine, and Umi's already said this, long ago."

Alfin nodded, going around in circles were all wonderful memories of being with the two. Especially when sleeping in one bed that makes him happy because they both look familiar like in the past, when their status is still a friend not honey.

The man was silent, but afterwards he exhaled a rough breath. And again speaking, "more Al-hakan Mi, mother and father seemed to support Yasmine's wishes," he said.

"What, Yasmine just suddenly said such a thing?" ask Umi who still feels surprised. But immediately he remembered when the second son-in-law was staying at his house after the four-monthly event.

Alfin shakes. "He misunderstood, Mi. Yasmine heard him crying one afternoon and asked me about him who was not pregnant. Then Alifa asked again about whether I would leave her or not, which at that time, I answered by going with her always. And what Yasmine caught was that I chose Alifa" she explained.

Now replace Umi who exhaled a rough breath, in the mind of the middle-aged woman wondered. 'Is it true that Yasmine wanted to split up just from hearing Alifa's question?'

"What do I do, Mi, Bi?" ask Alfin in frustration.

"The only way is to talk well and finish well. Find a solution so that there is no difference, although it will certainly be very difficult," said Umi.

"When did you talk to Yasmine?" ask Abi.

"Yesterday. Al did not accidentally go to Mother's house, because when I went home I was surprised by Yasmine who did not come home. However, once I get there, I should be surprised to hear what Dad said that was not pleasant to hear" Alfin replied.

He said what his hearing was like when the father-in-law was talking to his youngest son.

"Yesterday are you angry, same Yasmine?" ask Umi.

Alfin was silent, then nodded weakly. "I even said he was spoiled and childish, because he said things I couldn't accept."

"Abi can only provide this solution, Al," Abi said. Alfin and Umi then sat up straight and ready to listen to what Abi would say. "We talked about this with all the family. Later Abi arrange a meeting of three families at once. We know, we can't interfere with your domestic problems, but if you can't solve them well, so we have to intervene. Later that night, ask Yasmine to talk back, talk from heart to heart. Tomorrow, Abi will arrange a meeting for all of us" the middle-aged man said.

"If Yasmine doesn't want to talk, Bi?" Umi asked. "Biasa woman will be difficult to talk to when her heart is not okay, she just needs time to be alone" continued Umi.

"Yes, already. If not, don't force it. Remember, she's pregnant, don't let too much be thought of. Do not let you regret if something bad happens to you," Abi reminded.

"Al, does Alifa know?" ask Umi.

Alfin answered with a head. "I don't want him to feel guilty if he finds out about this, Mi" she replied.

"But, I know Mas" said someone who turned out to be Alifa. The woman let out her tears as she walked closer towards the three humans sitting there.

Not wanting to break, but he could not bear to just wait quietly at home. At first the woman wanted to come to Umi for advice. But, who would have thought, it turned out that the husband was there and he heard everything with a very grievous heart.

He was sick because it turned out that the friend had to hear complaints that he had asked the husband. At that time, she felt safe when her husband gave an answer. But apparently, the answer that made him a little calm actually made a pain in Yasmine's heart.
