WHEN THE HEART MUST SHARE

chapter 25

 While driving Aby tried to contact Anisa, of course Anisa did not have time to hold a mobile phone. He was drowning in such deep sorrow.

He was sitting near his dead body which was stiffened.

Anisa deeply regrets why her brother had to hear her conversation over the phone with Dr. Ratna. To make his Abah Anfal and unconscious.

At that time he and doctor Ratna were discussing about the continuation of his treatment. Anisa was stunned to hear the nominal money she had to prepare for the cost of therapy.

"But I didn't have that kind of money, Doc." at that time Anisa didn't realize her brother was listening carefully.

"That color is what I'm asking you to be frank with your family" Dr Ratna said at the end of the line.

"No, doctor.my husband should not know, let alone my Abah. I don't want to make them sad." replied Anisa.

"Sad for what, Nduk?"

Suddenly his brother was standing behind him.

Anisa was so dumbfounded.

"So, since when is Abah here?" Anisa was worried that her brother had heard everything.

Anisa is also helpless when her Abah robs her cell phone which is still connected to doctor Ratna.

That's where the disaster started.

Abah ya could not receive the news that so shook his soul.

Ustadz Yahya faithfully accompanied Anisa who was sitting glued.

Ustadz Yahya is the one who represents the family to welcome the visitors.

Anisa could not speak anymore.

He did not realize when Aby came and sat down near the body of his father-in-law.

Aby glanced at the silent Anisa with her flat face.

He wanted to accompany Anisa at that time, but his intention was to say all the way when he saw Yahya ustadz who sat nearby and always gave support to her. Aby can't talk to Anisa.

Anisa was devastated by the departure of the second man in her life.

"Change... Forgive Anisa. Sorry Bah.!"

At the time the mourners had gone home, there were close families and busy students passing by. Anisa still lives in her grave. Ustadz Yahya never left him.

"Nisa, let's go in. You have to be strong, there is still Al your son who needs your attention." said Ustadz Yahya.

despite feeling angry at Yahya's ustadz, Aby ventured closer to Anisa.

He did not care that Yahya's look was so strange to him.

"Nisa, I'm sorry I just got here."

Aby said as she clasped Anisa's hand.

Anisa did not look at it one bit.

"Thank you for taking the time to come."

"Why didn't you tell Mas Aby about Abah's situation?" aby's tone of voice began to rise.

"Don't ask me to argue this time!" anisa answered flatly.

"You're forcing me to argue, why should you give my position to ustadz Yahya?"

Yahya who initially refrained from interfering finally spoke as well.

"Sorry Mr. Aby. Anisa is indeed your wife, but she is currently grieving. Please don't add to his sadness with that attitude of yours."

Aby is getting up because Ustadz Yahya is talking.

"Ustadz, maybe you know better than me about grammar and manners. Didn't you interrupt the conversation between two people let alone their husband and wife, it's not commendable?"

Yahya.

"And you're Nisa, you shut up when other men talk to me about ethics?"

Aby's face was reddened by emotion.

"My patience is thin, Mom. Please don't seek a defense.you weren't even present when Abah was looking for you in his last moments. You're saying I didn't tell you? I've called you so many times. I sent a message too. Butwhat? You didn't respond at all.

I understand that you're busy because Zahra is sick, but isn't there a little time for Abah?

Now you're questioning ustadz Yahya?"

"You made up the story, Nisa, you said you called me, where? I'm waiting for your news from five o'clock in the afternoon until evening. Not even a message exists."

Anisa is confused by Aby. It's clear she's been preaching, but she says she never called him? Let him look for the faults of others.

"I guess my presence is no longer needed here... "

Aby shuffled and left the place.

"Ustadz Yahya approached him. "I'm sorry, Nisa. Aby has misunderstood me" he said feeling guilty.

"You don't have to feel guilty. The situation is testing us."

On the other hand, Aby came home with a sense of Tara's annoyance.

"Why has Anisa changed so far...? Why is he defending that man more than I am his rightful husband? Why?" Aby hit the handlebar.

She can't afford to lose Anisa's love and attention.

"Well, if he can heat up my manation, I can too!" said firmly.

Aby keeps coming to his tahlilan in-laws. He was also busy serving. But as long as he was there, he did not greet Anisa.

Only Al bridge they communicate.

Ustadz Yahya who knows it is more and more thinking about it.

"If this is the way, Aby should let go of Anisa." said yes in his heart.

ustadz Yahya intended to speak with Aby.

"What's up" asked Aby ketus. The fire of jealousy re-ignites when it sees Yahya ustadz.

"Sorry, Mr. Aby. Seeing your condition getting further away, and not finding a bright spot, shouldn't you let go of Anisa?"

They were in a room just the two of them.

Aby was so shocked at Yahya's request.

"Is this Anisa's will? " he asked me with anger.

"Didn't you? Anisa doesn't know about this at all. I just feel kasian to him, Mr. Aby already there Jelita as well. While Anisa herself I see is already uncomfortable with her marriage" said Yahya doubtful.

Unexpected by Yahya. A fist had already floated about the corner of his lips, the peci he was wearing until it flew away not knowing where.

"Sorry, Mr. Aby.. I just want to give the best solution for Anisa" he said while wiping the blood on the corner of his lips.

He did not return Aby's blow at all.

"Who are you to dare say that Anisa is already uncomfortable with her marriage? Oh I know, you have a certain purpose behind your plan. Aye, right?"

"The late Abah has left Anisa to me, so whatever concerns her kindness, I will do." Yahya has not given up.

"I was still considering Anisa's feelings, but seeing this all I changed my mind. Whatever happens, I won't let go of Anisa!"

Aby came out with a flushed face while slamming the door.

Some santri who were on the move looked at him in wonder. Aby doesn't care anymore. He felt that Anisa and Yahya had stepped on his pride.

Aby finds Al and persuades him to go home.

But the boy refused.

"Father and Deck Zahra will miss you.."

"Al wants to be here with Mother. Besides, if you want to be with Al too, stay here with us" he replied innocently.

Aby returns home without Al or Anisa.

A few days passed, Aby no longer came to Anisa's place.

He deliberately let it get better first.

But for seven days, ten days, Anisa did not come home either.

Aby became agitated herself.

Since the departure of Anisa who did not come home, Jelita and make Jelita and her mother free in the house. Of course Aby didn't know. He went in the morning and came home in the afternoon.

"Truly unexpected, our lives can be as comfortable as this now" said Bu Sari while breathing a sigh of relief.

"Mother don't be happy first, we can be comfortable because Anisa's mom is leaving, try if she comes back, I'm just a second wife who has to succumb in everything." said Jelita.
