The meeting took place in a quiet and soft-lit room. Mr. Surya sat at one end of the room, looking tense and worried. Vienna, accompanied by his friends, and the true wife of Mr. Surya, sat opposite him. Their moods were all tense and full of uncertainty.
Vienna sat quietly, but her eyes reflected a mixture of feelings of anger, confusion, and curiosity. His college friends sat behind him, providing moral support with their solid presence.
Mr. Surya finally started the conversation with a trembling voice, "I'm sorry to everyone. I have been lying all this time, and these lies have not only ruined my life, but the lives of all of you. I'm sorry for everything I've done."
Vienna looked at Mr. Surya with a sharp gaze, looking for honesty within the man's eyes. "What do you mean, Mr Surya? Why are you lying to us and even to your own wife?"
Mr. Surya sighed deeply before replying, "I did all that because I felt so lonely. I feel like no one really cares about me. I was stuck in a lonely and stressful life. But when I met you, Vienna, I felt a new hope. I don't want to lose you."
Vienna felt empathy, although still upset by the actions of Mr. Surya. He understands that people can feel trapped in difficult situations, but that doesn't justify lying. "But why didn't you say this from the beginning? Why did you choose to lie?"
Mr. Surya lowered his head, "I'm afraid if I'm honest, you'll reject me. I'd like to get your heart, Vienna, even if it means lying. But as time went on, I felt increasingly uncomfortable with this lie, and I could no longer bear to keep pretending."
Mr. Surya's true wife, who had been silent during this conversation, finally spoke in a soft voice, "I also feel trapped in this situation, and I don't know what I should do. I wish we could all find a good way out of all this."
Vienna looked towards Mr. Surya's true wife, feeling compassion for the woman who was also a victim of her husband's lies. He turned back to Mr. Surya and said in a calm voice, "I believe that everyone can change. We must recover lost trust. It's not an easy thing, but we'll try."
His friend nodded in agreement, showing their support for Vienna. Mr. Surya, though still feeling anxious, was relieved to finally reveal his lie and got a second chance to improve his life.
The encounter ends with a feeling of relief and hope that the journey to mend the relationship between them all has begun. Vienna feels that honesty is the first step towards healing, and she is ready to continue on this journey, despite the uncertainty that confronts her.
After meeting Mr. Surya and his true wife, Vienna and his college friends were relieved that the truth was finally revealed. They gathered at one of the friends' houses to talk more about what had happened and discuss their next steps.
The living room of the friend's house was filled with a tense atmosphere. The dimly lit lights illuminated their emotion-filled faces. Vienna sat on the sofa with her friends standing around her, creating a small circle inside the warm room.
Salma, one of Vienna's friends, began to speak, "I don't know what we should do now. Mr. Surya has admitted his lies, but do we have to give him a second chance?"
Tasya, another friend, replied emphatically, "I think Vienna should take some time to reflect and decide what is best for her. We will support whatever his decision is."
Vienna looked at her friends with gratitude, "Thank you, all of you. I truly feel blessed to have friends like you who care and support me in all of this."
Moments later, Mr. Surya's true wife joined the meeting. He was moved by the support and understanding he had met among his Viennese friends.
Mr. Surya's true wife said in a soft voice, "I want to thank you all for your support and understanding. I also hope to improve my relationship with my husband. We have a lot to do, but we are committed to doing it together."
Tasya replied, "We wish you and Mr. Surya the best. It's been a difficult journey, but with each other's support, we can get through this."
The meeting ended with a sense of relief and hope growing between them. They feel stronger as a group and are ready to face the future in the belief that their friendship will continue to strengthen.
After the meeting, Vienna returned to her room to reflect. He sat on the floor, reciting, and praying to God. She felt blessed with caring friends by her side and felt that she was not alone in facing this ordeal. His closeness to God deepened, and he knew that his trust would guide him in making the right decision.
Vienna sat in the middle of her room, with a dim light shining down on her face. In a quiet room, he pondered with a heavy heart. The sound of the wind outside the window seemed to give comfort to the silence that surrounded it.
He felt a complicated mix of emotions. On the one hand, he felt angry and betrayed by Mr. Surya's lies. On the other hand, she felt haru because of the sincere confession she finally heard from the man. Vienna knows that nothing can change the past, but accepting an apology is the first step towards better change.
Vienna reflected on the meaning of forgiveness in its religion. He knows that God teaches us to forgive others as we would like to be forgiven. He thought of how Allah is Oft-Forgiving, and even in great error, there is an opportunity to improve.
As he pondered inwardly, the door of his room slowly opened. The Viennese mother, who had understood her son's feelings, entered carefully. He approached Vienna and sat down beside him.
Viennese mother said softly, "Honey, I know this is a difficult time for you. But I want you to know that forgiveness does not mean forgetting or justifying what has happened. It's about letting go of the burden in your heart so you can continue with it more lightly."
Vienna looked at her mother with tears in her eyes, "Mother, I know that. I know I have to forgive, but sometimes it feels so hard."
The Viennese mother replied, "Yes, forgiveness is not easy, but it is a noble act. And remember that Allah is Forgiving. If we ask for forgiveness sincerely, He will forgive us. Same with everyone else."
Vienna nodded, pondering her mother's words. She felt a little relieved by her mother's understanding support. Then, he again thought about Mr. Surya's apology.
Moments later, he took out a piece of paper and pen from the table in his room. With a heavy heart, he began to write to Mr. Surya. In the letter, he stated that he accepted his apology and hoped that they could all learn from this mistake and change for the better.
After finishing his letter, Vienna felt like a burden was lifted from his chest. He knew that this journey would still be difficult, but he had decided to give Mr. Surya a second chance. In the solitude of his room, he felt a deepening closeness to God, for he understood the true meaning of forgiveness and generosity.
