Zahwa My wife
Chapter 23



Zahwa was still glued to her seat, she still could not believe all of her husband's words, tears began to fall down her cheeks but she quickly wiped them away, cause I don't want Anton to see it.


Anton was sleeping on his bed, then Zahwa stood up to walk off the room lights and replace it with a sleeping lamp, his steps felt so heavy he was unable to walk. Zahwa finally laid her body on the bed, pulled the blanket and turned to her husband.


At one o'clock in the night, Zahwa awoke from her sleep, she recalled all the words of her husband, Anton's words really tortured her mind and made her unable to sleep well because she was always awake, always awake, anton said it was like a nightmare haunting him. Then he got out of his bed and walked to the bathroom, Zahwa sat down and prayed tahajud he tried to find calm in his night prayer.


Because she still could not fall asleep, after Zahwa prayer decided to teach, so as not to disturb the sleep of her husband, Zahwa came out and sat on the balcony chair in her room. There is a calm that Zahwa feels when he recites the bacan bacan of his Qur'an, making him forget the incident last night. He taught until the dawn prayer time arrived, and the sound of the Adhan was heard.


Thank God, thank God, you gave me peace. I believe this is all your destiny, and if you choose me to live it, it means that you believe that I am strong and able to face all of this, may I always be on the right path, God. Aamiin ya robbal alaamiin.. In Zahwa, he was trying to strengthen himself.


Zahwa stood up from his chair he turned his body to go back into the room, but when he turned around he was surprised because Anton was standing at the balcony door right behind him. Zahwa tried to calm her heart and threw a sweet smile at her husband.


"Wake up" Zahwa said, greeting her husband.


"Didn't you sleep all night." asked Anton. Actually he had several times awake also from his sleep, because he did not feel the presence of Zahwa on the bed, he tried to find and go back to sleep after, after, he found out what his wife was doing on the balcony of her room.


"I'm sorry if I hurt you." continued Anton again.


"Let's pray first mas."sajak Zahwa, she can still smile even with a broken heart, trying hard and strong in front of her husband.


This time they did congregational prayers, for the first time her husband was to imitate her, during this time Anton always prayed in the nearest mosque with his father, Anton including people who are diligent in worship and understand religion, he said, so his desire for polygamy certainly did not violate religious law, as long as he could support his wife and act justly.


"Mas" Zahwa called and held Anton's hand, who was about to leave the room after they finished praying.


Anton turned her back to stand in front of Zahwa, Zahwa looked her husband in the eye with a smile and began to speak.


"Mas I've found the answer. And I agree that you're going to marry Sarah. But I beg you, don't ever divorce me, I'll try to accept Sarah as my honeymoon and be nice as a friend to her." Zahwa spoke clearly and there was no sense of compulsion from her, she even smiled sweetly while looking warmly at her husband's eyeballs.


"You were serious about all your words just now." Anton raised his hand and touched both cheeks of Zahwa, he looked back at his wife's eyes, and felt disbelief in all the words that had just been spoken from Zahwa's lips. Zahwa only nodded her head a few times while still smilingly looking at her husband.


"Thank you Zahwa, thank you very much." Anton also pulled Zahwa into his arms, thanksgiving was also heard several times ejected from Anton's lips.
