Wife Unvalued

CHAPTER 124 - Facts of the World (Sadly)

Like clockwork, it will not always stay on top. Sometimes they fall too. If today you are sad, tomorrow is different, and vice versa. It's all about time and how people thank you.

"Random again."

In contrast to Bima who is now slowly feeling happiness after years of languishing in suffering, in another corner of the city Atmadja actually began to reap the wounds he had inflicted in the past.

Befriend Yudha and Arjuna, the room with light blue shades feels cooler. Atma's tears were shed, something was missing in her. Something so precious and so expensive, unfortunately for years he hurt, but did not realize.

"Pa, it's late better sleep ya."

"Again, Yudha," Papa Atma's pinta seemed to plead, since the man was just staring at the sky.

So much that he lamented, 29 years of marriage is proof of how stupid he was. Atmadja discards gems only for the sake of worthless stones. Now, the jewel he threw away still shines even without a companion in his life.

Not only is Seruni the jewel that Atma wasted, but also his two sons. Even though Bima was struggling with treasure by her side, she was still wasted, suffering even more from Yudha.

In fact, when Bima was so mature and presented the figure of a wife in front of him, Atma still did crazy things that scratched his son's heart. He who demeans, belittles and drags the woman Bima loves clearly hurt Bima.

Evidently, the wound in Bima's heart was as severe as that until she dared to act unexpectedly. He did not expect at all, if the obedient son was not the real Bima.

So now how to? Bima who was well received in his wife's family had made Atma lose. He no longer needed a helping hand, even when he came to see him, Atma once offered help to support the process.

However, Bima refused outright, she did not receive any help from Papa Atma. What Bima now has may never be negotiable even if Papa Atma gives up all the wealth he has.

"Pa, I've read it, go to sleep."

Yudha patted his shoulder gently, the man was aghast as he stroked slowly. He thought too deeply that he could not hear the voice of Yudha, the son who always smiled warmly at him.

"Hem? Papa didn't listen, Yudha."

"Do you want me to repeat?" asked Yudha to look at the papa's sad bead.

How long have Atma's eyes been wet. Yudha was confused as to how, since Bima left the father did not stop shedding tears. This is what makes Yudha try to convince Bima that Papa Atma loves her so much.

"No, it's good that you take a break .. accompany Arjuna," he said staring at the nanar while sighing long.

Speaking of Arjuna, let's be honest Papa Atma's heart is not karu-karuan. The child was too small with this fact of samacam.Atma's eyes were fixed on Arjuna who was asleep not far from him.

Papa Atma's heart is in turmoil, he can't control his soul. I want to be angry, but to whom? Regrets are right for now. Only for the sake of the King and Arjuna, he often hurt Bima and ignored if he had Yudha too.

"Papa sleeps, I'll."

"Does papa deserve to be called papa?"

Yudha was silent, the question was a little trap and made her need to think before answering. Papa Atma looked at him, he smiled bitterly before then sighing harshly.

"Of course, why did Papa ask? Didn't Arjuna say, Papa is a great Papa."

"Yes, but papa failed to be a papa for both of you .. Even since you two were born into the world, papa has failed, Yudha," he said, holding his breath that felt so difficult, it was as if a large chunk of rock was squeezing his chest.

"Failing father, failing to be husband, failing to be a father, even failing to be a child."

Almost disjointed, but Papa Atma again continued his speech even though with a trembling heart.29 years of closing eyes and refusing if he was wrong, in the end Atma relented too.

What he said was nothing wrong, since Bima and Yudha in the womb had indeed failed to become a husband and father figure. She betrayed Seruni who was pregnant with her child.

Worse, the betrayal continues and she is trapped by the grief that Gilsa shows her. Gilsa managed to make Papa Atma feel guilty for having chosen Seruni who was then pregnant with her son.

Until, the peak of Atma's last failure is when taking a unilateral decision. Without his father's consent, he dropped the talaq on the wife, who ended the fight until the father had a heart attack and died exactly two months after his divorce.

"Papa regrets, Yudha .. Your mother, you and Bima deserve to hate papa," he said with a sigh, suddenly it made Yudha panic.

"Don't do anything, Yudha ... Papa is fine" he continued, preventing Yudha's attempts to ask the nurse to come immediately.

"All right how? Papa like!!" Yudha's voice rose, and the grip of his papa's hands on Yudha's hands was strong.

"You're even more claustrophobic than papa used to be, right? Let Papa end Yudha, papa is too embarrassed to apologize to your mother." His voice was getting weaker, even almost whispering until Yudha who had been that loud was destroyed as well.

"Papa talk ap_ Pa? Yes, God ... Papa's? Pa? Papa!!!" Yudha's shout kept Arjuna awake, but in that second also the grip on Yudha's hand weakened with the papa's eyes now closed perfectly.

"Father!!"
