Wife Titipan

Chapter 27

Lately, inexplicably, Najma's thoughts to leave Pram, remembering Seno's story about Pram's psychiatric condition in the past made him shudder in horror.

But can he run away leaving the man, while he has gone too far. His life was really messed up, he couldn't possibly easily get out of all this.

"Every working day you daydream constantly, you should be happy because soon we will have children instead of even this." Pram spoke with a bit of annoyance. In the past Najma often daydreamed, she thought it was natural because the woman was lonely and stressed thinking of a child who had not been present at their wedding.

But now that he pays more attention to Najma, he indulges the woman more than ever. Soon the baby in Najma's birth will also be born, the woman should have a happy day.

"This is a package for you from Papa." Najma accepts the thing Pram gave her. Najma's eyes widened looking at the contents of the package. A stuffed cat, this is a doll that Bayu gave at that time.

But how did his father know? Najma forgets that her father always finds out about her especially after knowing the bad events that happened to her.

"Why did I miss Bayu?" Najma thought to herself, she involuntarily smiled in light of the sweet moment that had occurred between them. Can the moment repeat itself? where Bayu often looks clumsy and misbehaved if he teases her.

Najma regained consciousness when she felt someone stroking her hair. "There's something important I want to talk to you about." Pram looked at Najma with a serious face. Najma began to feel uncomfortable, for sure what Pram wanted to convey was not good news.

"Mom wants to stay with us." Najma closed her eyes for a moment. Wendy wants to stay with them. She is now pregnant, if the wicked woman lives with them Najma is sure she will not be able to live her day quietly.

"I'm pregnant now. I'm sure even if you admit the baby I'm carrying is your son your mother won't believe it easily. Moreover, you know for yourself how your mother has treated me all this time." Pram was seen holding his breath shortly after hearing every word spoken from Najma's lips.

"I'll take care of you and our baby. I'll also try to convince Mom that the baby you bear is my son."

"That's what you're talking about? I don't want Mom to stay with us. Remember that! this house my Papa gave as a gift from our first marriage. So automatically this house is mine, you can't bring anyone else to live here without my permission. And you also have to remember that you wouldn't be as successful now if it wasn't for the help of my Papa!" I don't know where Najma got the courage to talk like that. Pram himself to the point of disbelief all this time Najma never brought up all that.

"But initially I built my company with my own hard work, until your father offered capital assistance for the progress of my company." Najma was grieving hearing Pram's words as if he did not accept what he said before.

"Yes, at first you built your company with your own hard work, but you have to remember, your company was almost bankrupt. If it wasn't for my status as your wife Papa wouldn't have given you capital assistance, if you still wanted your mother to stay with us I would have gone home to my parents. We better split up!" Najma said with a hunting breath.

"What do you mean talk like that?" Pram's emotions begin to be provoked when Najma says goodbye.

"You're talking what I mean! If I ask back, now what is our status? I'm no longer your wife, so I'm free to leave you whenever I want!" Najma's words were like lightning striking through a hole.

Pram seemed to try as hard as possible to hold back his emotions. If he chooses to indulge his current lust, then Pram will strangle Najma to death before she leaves or she says she no longer loves him.

"Why Bayu? Do you like other women?" Tanya Wardi Bayu's father. Bayu looked down he did not dare to look at his father's face.

"Jawab Bayu don't be a man who has no stand." Bayu several times exhaled as if he was gathering his courage.

"Sorry Sir. It's true that I like other women." Bayu waited for the reaction given by his father.

"Then." Wardi stared at Bayu sharply.

"I married her...."

Not yet Bayu finish his speech, he has got a slap on his cheek his father does have a hard character. Bayu tried to remember the last time he was slapped by his father, when he decided to quit school.

"Father doesn't agree you're marrying anyone other than Elsa, you'd better split with her." Bayu smiled wryly, he touched the corner of his lips that felt sore.

"Without you asking, we will also part," said Bayu, his heart was thinking about everything.

"Good then, you don't need to see his face."

"But the Father will have a grandson from him," said Bayu makes Wardi surprised, if only he had a history of heart disease maybe he would die suddenly.

*****

After they had a fight, Pram left Najma. Pram goes somewhere to calm down, an old building that has not been taken care of since he often goes here if there is a problem.

The feelings that Najma had towards her had changed, she and the woman were already ten years tied up in marriage. Pram wants those ten years to continue into the second, third and so on. 

Pram stared at the tattoo on his arm, not a strange tattoo. The tattoo reads Najma's name, Pram's wish is actually simple he wants to live his life with Najma always by his side. They love each other like any other happy couple.

But problems are always present, what else from his mother. The woman who had raised him almost never made his love relationship calm, especially his emotions are unstable so he was easily provoked.

Should he stay away from his mother again Endah is not his birth mother, but whether his decision is correct while he would not have been able to grow up if not the woman who took care of him.
