The Tarnished Wife

Helps to rise from the fall

Rara sat on the sand of the beach hugging her legs. It has been two hours he was here.the journey to this beach from the city was not for a while. However, the beautiful scenery and peaceful atmosphere of this place is able to calm the heart and soul of Rara who is fragile. The person who had been the backrest and the place to share, will now disappear. The person he had believed so much had destroyed that belief.

Now, those tears are drying up. He can no longer cry. Her tears have been shed for a few hours. His gaze was only straight ahead, looking at the invisible sea at the end. The sea was so vast with a long expanse, stating that what he experienced was not worth the favors He gave.

Bugh

Rara's daydream was jolted, due to the impact of a ball on her right shoulder. He immediately took the ball.

“Oh, Miss. Sorry,” said a young girl who was about eighteen years old.

Rara smiled. “It’s ok.”

This month is a long holiday. In addition to the school is closed because of the end of the semester holiday, this month is also the month of the year ending. In two weeks, the year will change into a new year, so this place has more visitors, even from abroad. Like the girl who apologized to Rara earlier, the girl seemed to look the face of a stranger from Europe.

“Michele,” call the two little ones who ran towards Rara and the young girl.

The two boys and girls looked cute and adorable. The way they run alone has made Rara smile, when at first Rara's lips are very difficult to widen.

“Where's the ball?” ask the boy with a handsome face.

“Hey, why silence?” the girl who was the same age as the boy pulled the young girl's shirt earlier.

This girl looks beautiful too. This boy and girl look similar but not identical. They are twins of different sexes.

“This is your ball,” said Rara smiling as she handed the ball that hit her shoulder a little hard.

The two kids smiled.

“Thanks, Miss.” said the boy and the girl were unpretentious.

“Sama-sama.” Rara's smile on the boy and girl. “You are fluent in indonesian.” Rara is anxious to hold the cheeks of the two children who are sitting with her while taking the ball from Rara's hands.

The two kids smiled.

“We learn this language up to one year,” says daughter.

“Oh, I learned this language only eight months,” said the boy who mentioned eight months but ten of his fingers were raised to the front of Rara's face.

Rara couldn't bear to not laugh. He finally laughed.

“Miss, you are very beautiful,” said the young girl who had just looked at Rara's face.

Rara smiled back. “You too.”

“Zac ... Zoey ..” shouted the middle-aged woman calling the boy and girl.

The two young children and the young girl turned to the source of the voice that made Rara turn her head.

“Yes, Mam,” replied the young girl.

“You twins?” rara asks two young children called Zac and Zoey by their mother.

Zac and Zoey nodded.

“We go first,” says Zac.

“I too. Daaah .. nice to meet you,” Zoey continued.

“Daah, Miss. I hope we meet again,” said the young girl.

Rara just smiled and nodded while waving her hand. “Daah.”

The three strangers approached her mother and left Rara. However, their boisterous voices were still heard.

“Mam, why do we go home fast? Isn't Dad also being here?” ask girls who are fluent in speaking especially with a language that may not be their everyday language.

“No, Daddy didn't know we were on vacation here. Let's go home, after all we've been staying here since yesterday. Come on!” the middle-aged woman also invited the two twins and the young girl to leave this place.

Rara was still looking at the tourist, because the four people including her mother were European-faced. The twins and the young girl stepped off the beach, but for a moment they looked back and smiled at Rara who was still looking at her.

Zac and Zoey again waved at Rara accompanied by a very sweet smile.

Rara returned the hand and smiled. Then, he again looked at the sea view, after the strangers had gone away and did not look back at him again. Rara took a long breath. It was adorable for the kids, so adorable with the kids he taught at the Foundation where he worked. Hah, Rara misses working and meeting her students. Although he had no children, he had children that he taught in school.

At Manda's house, Kemal now sees Noah, his first grandson. Kemal could not bear to not punch his son in the face. As a result, Manda is currently treating the swollen lips of Reza due to Kemal's punch.

“You're a total coward, Za. Papa never taught you to be like this.” Kemal could not bear to not grieve knowing this reality, especially when he saw Noah who woke up because of the noise that occurred.

Seeing Noah's innocence, Kemal was filled. Not to mention the white object featuring a red two-striped line on the table, indicating that the daughter-in-law her son was hiding was pregnant again.

“No Pa, Reza does not want to divorce from Rara. Please, Pa.” Reza immediately prostrated at the feet of the father.

“During this time Papa is trying to be a good father to you guys. Be a loyal man to your mama. Wh-wh-what for? Because Papa wants to be a good example for you."

Kemal pointed to himself. He believed that the fruit was not far from the tree but the faith could not be inherited even from a pious father.

“Pa,” call Zayn softly while holding the hand of his adoptive father who remains always his father, even though he has found his biological father.

Kemal is a real man who loves his family.

“Then, what do you want? You want to have two wives? Papa thinks Rara didn't want that. She's a good woman. He will definitely relented and go.”

“No, Pa.” Reza.

“Then let me go,” said manda firmly. He did not want this situation.

“You think Rara will accept? It won't. After all, you are pregnant. I won't let you get divorced. Better Reza divorce Rara or if Reza does not want, then Rara who will divorce Reza,” said Kemal and immediately invite Zayn to leave the house.

Zayn can't do anything. He did not want the situation to be like this either. He also wants the household of his brother and soul mate is fine. When Rara officially became Reza's wife, Zayn was already fully converted. He knew that not all love could be had.

“Pa, Zayn between Papa to the apartment only yes,” said Zayn glanced at the father when they were already in the car.

Kemal was silent. He was still shocked by everything that happened today. He was shocked when he saw Noah, because he already had a grandson. Somehow he told this to Mirna. His wife was already very shocked when Zayn made a mistake first and now, their biological children also made a mistake that may be as big, because accidentally both of them have both taken the honor of women by force.

“Pa,” call Zayn.

He looked towards Zayn. “Then what about Rara? Where's papa's daughter?”

“Zayn will find it, Pa.”

“Papa follow.”

Zayn. “No, Papa just rest in Kak Reza's apartment. Looks like Papa is tired and needs a break.”

Kemal surrender. Yes, he was very tired because not only physically tired but also tired of the mind.

“Good.”

Then, Zayn drove his car to Reza's apartment and dropped the father off right in the lobby.

Kemal looks lethargic. He opened the car door and Zayn held his father's arm.

“Pa, forgive us.” Zayn hugged his father with tears.

Zayn is aware that the mistakes of a child become the mistakes of parents as well, because what a child does will definitely affect his parents. Zayn could feel disappointment in the look on the face of the middle-aged man who still looked sturdy and handsome.

Kemal patted Zayn on the shoulder and smiled slightly. “Find Rara see you!”

Zayn nodded. “Iya, Pa.”

After dropping off the father in the apartment lobby. Zayn immediately drove the car to a place that Rara might be visiting at this time. Jayanti Beach, yes ... Zayn knew that Rara loved the sunset. The woman likes the beach and whenever there is a problem first, Rara always asks Zayn to be on the beach.

Zayn looked at the watch on his right hand.in two and a half hours, the sun was about to sink. He did not want to miss Rara's presence there.

****

The sky is turning yellow, the sun will soon set. In a moment, Zayn will reach the beach.

Half an hour later, he parked his car and searched for Rara. Reza ran around looking for the woman. Really, Zayn could feel what Rara was feeling right now. With all the drama that happened at Manda's house, Zayn was able to conclude that Rara was shaken after learning that her second wife was pregnant with her second child. The child present was no longer due to a mistake.

“Rara,” call Zayn softly with a big smile when he finds the figure of the woman who is always in his heart sitting hugging his knees and back him.

After meeting with a stranger. Rara also went from her seat to the musholla to perform the shiolat Ashar, then bought a drink and sat back to the place waiting for the sunset engel.

Zayn immediately sat down beside Rara. The woman beside Zayn did not turn her head towards him at all. It was as if he had his own world or indeed his mind that was not here.

“Ngga bosen alone? Need friends?” zayn asked, making the woman beside him flinch.

Rara turned to look at Zayn and smiled. He blinked his eyes until the lashes moved.

“You didn't ask me why I was here?” ask Zayn.

Rara smiled and shook her head. He again straightened his eyes to see the beauty of the sunset in front of his eyes.

As for Zayn, looking at that smiling pretty face from the side. Zayn does not need the beauty of the sunset, he only needs the beauty of the woman in front of him. However, no matter what was happening to Rara right now, Zayn would not take advantage of her. Really, he just wants to help Rara rise from this slump, while paying for the guilt that never goes away.
