"You know him, mas?” Asha's lips trembled, his body was limp, with a swift Ivory holding the body of his future wife.
“I don't really know him. She's just a waitress at the Venus hotel, don't you already know if three months ago during a bachelor party with my office friends, she was there serving us.”
“But Ivory mas never said that mas slept with him!” Asha brushed off Ivory's hand, trying to stand up even though her head felt like it was going to explode, her eyes glaring at the man who looked so wrong.
“But..but it was not accidentally. I was just drunk.”
“Mas actually slept with him???”Asha still hopes Ivory refutes the question, that everything the woman in front of him said is a lie.
“It...it's not what you think. It was just a mistake.” Ivory really wavered and then with great anger he turned to look at Laras who was increasingly bowed, silent a thousand languages.
“But she confessed that she is now pregnant with your child, mas!”Asha involuntarily shouted with a high volume.
“Why are you here?! Didn't I tell you never to show up in front of me again? Was the money I gave you the other day not enough to abort the baby?” He shouted at Laras.
The woman did not refuse to take a snatch from Ivory but her shoulders shook indicating she was crying.
“Astagfirullah..”Asha holds her chest, her heart is beating irregularly. Ivory already knows even more if Laras has become pregnant due to his actions even had told Laras to abort him. Asha is really devastated right now.
“How could the Ivory mas kill the blood of the Ivory mas itself? It is a sin that is so in the curse of God, mas.”Asha bit his lips, his eyes glazed.
“But it wasn't intentional.”.
“Deliberate or not, the baby is already alive, mas. He is attached in the womb and has a spirit. He's your son, mas. Do not hide behind your error to try to justify your cruel deeds.”
Laras got more and more as he stood when Asha denied the reason of Ivory.
“I've tried to try to abort it, sir like the ivory pack command, but..but when I want to do it, it feels like Iu not have the heart.”Laras said in between his sedu.
“I know this is my fault, I'm sorry if it has to be this way. But..but I also don't want to ruin Asha.”'s marriage The veiled face lifted looking at Asha timidly. He did not dare to look at Ivory whose face was red as if he wanted to swallow it round and round.
“I didn't ask to be married by Mr. Gading, I just wanted to let Asha accept me until I gave birth to her. After that I will leave after handing over the baby Mr. Ivory to the mother Asha.”more with a broken voice while lowering his knees, lying down.
Asha was silent, looking straight at the woman who
Geck! Geck! Geck!
Suddenly the door of the room was knocked.
“Who?” Asha greeted with a trembling voice.
Asha walked up to the door and opened it in an instant, there was Gisel standing with a deathly pale face there.
“Kak Asha, mama said Kak Gading should return, the marriage contract procession is less than an hour away. Guests and guardians have arrived.” Gisel said nervously, his eyes trying to peek into the room where he knew, his brother was there and the crying woman wanted to meet his future sister-in-law earlier.
“Mas ivory will be there soon.” The sentence sounded straightforward, before the door was returned by Asha.
“Mas ivory should marry him!” Suddenly Asha made a sound, the sentence sounded resolute.
Asha's index finger was pointed at Laras, but her eyes were fixed on Ivory.
“Are you crazy, Asha?” Ivory bought to Asha.
“I'm in my right mind, which is why I told Gading to marry her. If I'm crazy maybe you two I've thrown out of here.” Answer Asha sharply.
Hearing if now Laras, who was pregnant with her future husband's child, his humanity is bubbling. How not, he was also just an adopted child, who probably would not be able to live as he is now if without the kindness of his father and foster mother.
Her biological father died before she was born, due to a heart attack, while her mother gave birth and took care of herself while working as a housekeeper, in the place of a wealthy family.
When he was 9 years old his mother died in an accident while going to work for the rich man's house where he worked, that's why he was put in an orphanage until the age of 12 years and because of the kindness of the Batara family, a simple family without children owner of a wholesale cloth shop, he was officially adopted as a child.
Thanks to their kindness he was able to go to school until he became a scholar, then worked as a director secretary at the company, where he met Gading, one of the field managers there.
Now among her broken heart, she cannot close her eyes what would be the fate of Laras if she conceived herself without anyone responsible and protecting her? What is the fate of a baby in the womb without a father? And even more painful, Laras has no one in this world.
“But..this is just an accident, this was not on purpose, Laras also knows it.” Ivory sergeant.
“This may have been unintentional, but the baby was innocent.” The tears of Asha he had been holding back from earlier, were pouring like the rain.
All the disappointment, pain and anger were mixed. On her wedding day she received such a heavy ordeal.
“For God's sake, I won't marry her, Asha. Today is our wedding day. Don't screw. “
“For God's sake, mas Ivory. I also wouldn't be willing to continue our marriage if you didn't promise to marry her. The baby in her womb is your child, you know. Whatever happens as a male mas must be responsible.”
“But...but how can I marry him?”
“Today I and mas Gading are still married, but later in the afternoon, when all the invited guests have disbanded, I want mas to marry Laras in series.”
“But..”.
“Mas certainly does not want this disgrace to spread everywhere, and as a man who has admitted consciously that the mas has indeed impregnated him, mas must be responsible for reporting the disgrace received by Laras because of the act of mas, whether it was intentionally or unintentionally.” That poignant sentence was uttered by Asha with lips that were shaking violently, as if she was trying to do it sincerely on top of all the suffering and pain that was plaguing her soul right now.
“More mas must be responsible for an innocent life, which is being conceived by him.”
No woman is truly as capable as she is now, in a matter of hours will be joined as a bride and a woman just came as if to destroy all her happiness. The woman had already slept with her bridegroom, even pregnant with the child of her future husband.
“Asha, I refuse to marry Laras, I even only know her one night.” Ivory spoke in despair, trying to hold Asha's hand full of supplication, but once again Asha brushed it off, she still could not be twisted from the pain she was now experiencing.
“I'll marry you anyway, mas. Like our promise. But on condition that you have to marry the barrel after.” Asha's eyes gnawed letting two clear feathers fall in the corner of her eyes.
“On my permission as first wife, you may marry her.” Say Asha with one breath.
