The Thorn in the Family
Joint Decisions



Their mouths were gaping, and their eyes were perfectly rounded, he repeated the question, still reluctant to believe what they had just heard.


“I hope Mas Randi, quickly approve and sign divorce papers from mbak Tari, so that all soon improve”. Ipul said, coldly and with great emphasis, even his tone was like a threat.


Randi's hand trembled, when he grabbed the brown envelope, immediately his tears fell when the brown envelope was opened, a series of divorce papers, emblazoned, as a heartbreaking sight in the contents of the letter.


“I can't, I can't live without Tari”. her face is full of hope.


“One more Mas, this is the certificate of the house that I live'i, the house used to be Mas Randi who bought, therefore now we return it to you!”. Ipul again made a sound, his hands shortened, then raised his body, about to leave the house Randi.


While Roses and Ms. Srining, staring at each other with feelings that I don't know only they know. Between happiness and fear.


“Pul, what's going on? Actually there is a problem what happened to Dari and Randi, to make the two divorced?”. his bude, by holding the hand of Ipul, prevented him from leaving the living room.


Ipul chose to leave the house, without giving an explanation to Bude and Pakdenya. While Randi, he chose to leave the living room and go to his room without giving an explanation, he left a sheet of paper and the envelope scattered on the table. He slammed the door hard enough on the second floor.


Suddenly made the person who was in the living room, the first floor jumped in shock to hear it.


“Pardon the behavior of our son, Mr. Pure Mr. Dar, something has happened between them. I hope from the Bethari family will open the door of apology as big as possible for our son”. Said Ms. Srining, slowly, trying to explain the situation.


Pakde Dar and Bude Murni, sling fancies for a while, they try to string together every event that happens to his nephew.


“Mohn sorry, this is not my capacity to explain, it would be nice for Mr. Dar and Bu Murni to ask themselves in Tari”.


“For a while, preferably Mr. Dar and Bu Murni, go home first for the convenience of it all!”, sis Bu Srining back, indirectly he evicted his guests.


For Ms. Srining, there was no point in also entertaining guests from the Bethari family, which there would only be troublesome and self-destructive. Especially the family of Pakde Dar and Bude Murni, which he had known for a long time only as a hammer and thorn in the family.


“Hah! So we're being pushed out?”. Pure Bude replied, with a look of disbelief.


“Ah is not like that, it's just that it's been night, it's not good to visit for too long”. Refine by giving a smile.


“I yo Sir, we're home from this house”. Sinis Bude got up from his seat.


Bude and Pakde, left the house with a lot of swearing coming out of their mouths.

Silence began to envelop the earth, the clang of the clock clashed with each other, breaking the silence that hit, on the soul that languished. Time shows at one in the morning. Randi still refused to close his eyes. He only remembered his first wife. The series of memories together they so milling without permission.


Randi got up from his bed, he walked towards the wall directly opposite his mattress. One hand grabbed the large frame frame. A wedding photo printed in size is quite large, with a smile that emanates perfectly between the two brides. Kebaya simple white color, which dangles form a tail wrapped beautifully the small body of his wife.


Randi looked at her wedding photo, with a passionate look. Just a few days apart had made him feel lost focus to live in the world.


He held tightly to the photo, several times Randi also kissed the woman's face gently in the frame, occasionally he also invited her to talk.


“Honey, why does it have to be like this?”, he groaned back.


Randi again glanced at the nightstand next to his bed, he looked back at the two brown envelopes. “True, nothing more to expect?, nothing more to keep. I'm the most evil creature in this fairy tale!”.


“Yes Allah, sick”, his ringis back, when he saw the white paper was stained with his signature.


Randi and Tari, both do not want to know about the divorce. They both decided to leave everything to their respective lawyers. Dance really did not demand any possessions, even though the two had agreed to adopt a child. If it goes according to plan, the trial will proceed quickly and smoothly, as both sides carry out all procedures without drama.

Suka Maju Village


That morning Fitri came to visit his best friend, he came alone without bringing his son or husband, he deliberately met Tari alone to maintain the privacy of his best friend.


Fitri quickly headed to the garden beside the house, which a few days during his stay here became like the most favorite for Dance, he sat right next to his best friend.


“The air is good yes here cool”, sweep it by breathing as much air as possible.


Dari turned her head, she quickly hugged her new best friend who had come all the way to visit her.


“Tar, no matter what happens we remain friends yes, even though I am Mas Randi”'s brother.


Dari did not answer Fitri's words, he quickly embraced his best friend.


“Look at me now it's getting better here”. Dance tried to toughen up and showed a smile on her face.


“Tar, there are things I want to ask, but you have to answer them quickly and without thinking. Because the spontaneous answer is what I actually expected”.


Dance, nod her head.


“If, if the child in the Rose's birth is not Randi's child, would you like to come back with him?”.


“Mau”.


Reflek Tari, covered his own mouth, while Fitri seemed to pull a little the tip of his lips.


Then Fitri repeated the same question a second time.


“Mau”. The answer to Dance is still the same.


Then, Fitri asked for the last time with the same question.


“NO!”. This time Dance, gave a response with a different answer.


“Ah two on one, win two Tar”. ledek Fitri on his best friend.


Dancing just bowed embarrassed by the answer she gave. Because honestly in his deepest heart he loved Randi very much. But the betrayal that Randi and his family have done is in immeasurable pain.


“Quiet Tar, I will find out everything correctly for the sake of both of you”.
