UNABLE TO SHARE
Don't Tell Anyone
“Ya already,” says Alif finally. Unbearable, he decided to agree to Vita's request this time. “That's important you're fine now,”.
Vita nodded because she could not answer in any other way.
“So this is where you hide?” alif asked after he sat in the living room chair.
“I-Yes,” Vita replied rather nervously.
“You need not fear. I won't tell anyone as long as you don't kick my egg again.”
Alif's speech just made the tense atmosphere become slightly melted. “Sorry, Lif. Your own fault won't listen to me.”
“Your performance is huge. Until the whole day I've been messing around because of that, you know?”
Finally Vita could not hold back his laughter.
“What do you want to drink?”
“No need. I've been drinking on the road,” replied Alif. “Sit! I want to listen to your story. Why you can stay here.”
Vita according to though in the heart is still vigilant. He was just afraid that he might be fed his trick, and without realizing it, the man managed to drive him to the car and bring him home. ‘Do not until it happens.’
“Who do you live with?” Alif just kept on scraping.
"Good man." Vita lowered her head and was still reluctant to answer or tell about her. “I'm still afraid you're taking me home. I don't want.”
Alif is anxious with this woman who turns out to be very difficult to convince. “Do I need to leave a guarantee here so that you believe?”
“If you dare to say it, I swear you have difficulty getting a mate,” said Vita memgebu.
“No need to swear also has difficulty getting a soul mate.”
“Long. You two make no difference.”
“Whatever you say, I dont care,” says Alif don't really care. One hand reached into the left pocket of the pants, then took a pack of cigarettes. But just now he lifted his match, the pillow immediately hit his face so that the man suddenly jumped. “Astagfirullah!”
“May smoke but outside,” said Vita afterwards.
“Sorry, I forgot.”
Although conceived, Alif's character is very different from Yudha who has a more reserved and accepting nature. But of these two brothers, they have their own advantages and disadvantages.
“Last met in Terminal is still flat, now you have crumpled,” said Alif after a while later. “Why did you choose not to tell everyone?”
“Because she forbade me to get pregnant before our marriage was legalized,” Vita replied shortly afterwards. For a moment Alif immediately understood who ‘dia’ Vita meant. “Actually I have given him the code, but he is not sensitive to my circumstances. He is busy with his beloved wife!”
“Why can you?” alif asked, too, without thinking. “Then did you never ask her to confirm your marriage first?”
“Without asking, he should have known. But from far away, their wedding was already planned earlier than I.” His eyes began to condense again so he quickly pulled the tissue. “I can what?”
“If I may give you some advice, you better solve this problem first. Whatever the decision later, at least you have a clear status. Moreover, your content has grown bigger ...”
“For now ...just look at their faces, I don't think I can. Pain.”
“Vita, you also should not be too stubborn. Brother's not as bad as you think. He was sick for days while you were gone. She lost you so much and kept looking for you everywhere.”
“I've tried to accept my destiny, I've convinced myself that what I received was just a misunderstanding. But I still can't accept it. I just want to be the only one, Lif. But it can't possibly be. Because I know, it'll hurt one of them. Moreover, our position is equally medium ...,” Vita stared down for a moment, then straightened his head again.
Hearing Vita's complaint makes Alif full. At least in this case he can learn; polygamy is the worst wound for any woman. In his heart he promised that he would never do anything as complicated as his brother did.
“But right now you are not a widow, you are still his wife,” Alif said after a while.
“I've asked for a divorce from her. Not once twice. But every time I say it, the answer is always disappointing. So later if I'm ready, I'll meet him to clarify my status.”
“I'm sorry about your relationship,” said Alif, then his gaze turned to Vita's middle body. “That's what you checked.”
Vita rubbed her stomach, “Already,” she replied with a smile. “She's been five months now.”
“Oh, yes? Male or female?” alif answered enthusiastically.
“Male,” Vita replied with a smile.
“Yes already, you focus on that. Now that I know how you are, so if you need anything, you can ask for my help. Don't block my number again huh?”
Vita nodded. “I'll unblock it, but later if I already believe that you mean it.”
“Gosh! Turns out you still don't believe it either.”
“Trust, but must be vigilant.”
Alif clucked and shook his head. Is there a woman like her? Anti-maling women, but instead fooled crocodile mouth.
“Eh, rain ..” said Alif when he heard the tile ringing.
The rain came back. Vita again enjoyed the relief of her heart. The rain calms the soul. Accompanied by his sister-in-law, as well as his behavior that can sometimes make him laugh freely.
“How are Umi doing with Abah?” ask Vita.
“Well, they are in good health.”
“Thank God,” said Vita responded. “I also love Umi, same Abah, they were I considered like my own parents.”
“Means don't go, let you not lose them.”
“I will never leave. Even though we will no longer be husband and wife, in-laws will still be mahram for me.”
Alif raised his thumb. “Your knowledge is very far away. But you should know, they also miss you all this time.”
“Oh, yes?” vita's eyes sparkled hearing such wonderful news. “I'll meet them if their grandchildren are born later.”
“Yes. Hope your delivery is good. Don't forget to call us.”
Vita nodded even though she could not promise.
Alif wasn't there long. As soon as the rain subsided, he immediately took a break to return home.
After the man's death from there, Vita was not inexhaustible when he learned new facts; that Alif was in a relationship with Andari. They are dating secretly without Umi and Abah knowing for fear of being scolded.
“Just right earlier you claimed never introduced to his parents. Basic!”
