“Alin, please! Do not bother them anymore,” snapped Dhyo, he is Alin's lover who was once left by Alin abroad for college. But the man now returns and knows that Alin's intention is to get Rey. Where Dhyo finds out that Rey is the husband of his college friends. He knew that Marwa used to be a mockery of his friends for using a veil while in college. Even then he had tried to approach, but the woman actually avoided when there was a man who approached her.
Alin who did not care anymore about Dhyo's words at that time. “He belongs to me, Yo,”
“He belongs to another woman, Alin. You should have realized, you never saw me, I'm serious with you,”
“You're not as good as him, Dhyo. What can I expect from you? What can I be proud of you?” snapped Alin when she wanted to send a message to Marwa because she could not stand it anymore since these few days Rey sniffed from her. It was as if the man had forgotten about him.
“Alin, what you see best is not a good thing. Now you say Rey's good. But you should realize that he belongs to someone else, happy that does not have to take someone else's, Alin,”
“What do I care about you?”
“Alin, I loved you first. But you turn away and fight for what is not yours. You will actually damage the happiness of others to feed your own ego,”
“And whatever you say, I don't care,”
The Dhyo over there would never let Alin do that stupid thing. She loves Alin, and she also doesn't want Marwa to be ruined by Alin. However, even though he had put his heart to the woman, he still wanted Marwa to be happy with her partner. And took Alin back from the arms of Rey, the husband of his college friend.
Alin stood up then grabbed his bag and was about to leave Dhyo who was accompanying him to lunch. “Where to?”
“Ke office, Rey,”
“Can you stop your actions? What you did was wrong, Alin. What you do to make others suffer is not a good thing,”
Alin turns around and releases Dhyo's hand checks trying to hold him back. “Then reneging on a promise is a good thing for the person who is always waiting for you, Dhyo? You even promised to stay. But after I came back for the first time, you said so,”
Dhyo stood up and faced Alin. “I went to prove to you that I was serious. I prepared all this for you, and what did you do? Alin, I've been trying to keep fighting for us,”
“I need a more mature figure than me, Dhyo. And it's on Rey,”
“I'm the same age Rey. As long as you remember that, from I was in school, the only woman I fought for and at that time you were still a junior, I started to love you. But I still hold myself back because you were a kid, and you graduated high school. And you said that you'd come back for me, but look after I've succeeded and ready to get serious with you, you're the same as everyone else,”
“Where are you promising to wait for me? It is precisely you who go Dhyo,” Alin's voice rises and then pushes Dhyo's body from there. “As much as you want to say what, one thing you have to remember, that I feel the same you never existed. Even from the first never existed,” said Alin then threw Dhyo's hand. He was too disappointed in all this. The man once said that he would wait for him, but he came back to look for Dhyo. Instead the man disappeared, never preaching it again. When she loved Rey. Dhyo is back in his life.
Pass through the lobby, and meet some of Rey's employees. He went straight into the man's room without knocking on the door first. “Alin,” call Rey because surprised the woman came suddenly.
Rey got out of her seat and the woman grabbed her. The last few days Rey has avoided Alin to get things better. Starting from loving his wife, but his efforts collapsed immediately when he saw Alin came crying and just hugged him. “Why you?”
“Where are you going? Why didn't you ever tell me? Why do you never know me at all? Why do you have to leave me?”
Rey did not respond to what the woman said. After Alin let go of her embrace, Rey sat back to where she was. He wouldn't let anyone into his room if Alin came. That has been her decision since she dated Alin. One side, when he saw his picture with Marwa on his desk. The guilt comes.
“Alin, if I were to speak seriously with you. Can you do all this?”
“You mean?”
Rey looked at Alin and then grabbed the woman's hand. “Sorry before,”
“Why? Why did you say sorry?”
“This is for me and my son, Lin. You can't understand. Okay, first we've got a forbidden relationship. Cheating behind Marwa. That was wrong,”
“After what do you do with me?”
Rey nodded. “I'm sorry,”
“Sorry? You think this is all over with just an apology? You never thought about how much pain I felt,”
“Your pain is not comparable to the same pain feeling Marwa,”
“This is all you started too, Rey. If indeed you never start by proposing we should be friends, all will not be like gini. Promise you where to marry me, Rey?”
Regretfully, he could not continue with it all. Rey has to finish her relationship with Alin. It was all because of the guilt that had arisen within him. Especially every time he kissed his wife's stomach. There is a baby that he must take responsibility for, he must take care of both. If only he had chosen Alin to stay. Of course there is a heart that will be broken. And it will be destroyed at once, two great women in his life will be destroyed simultaneously.
When he saw the little baby being carried by his father, a sense of it appeared in Rey. If only she had accepted Alin's request to divorce Marwa later after giving birth, she would have felt all that karma. Rey herself did not want if the family she had built would just be destroyed.
Alin with a little emotion, “You forgot your promise, yes?”
“Alin please understand me,”

In the evening, he arrived at his parents' house. Rey went straight into her room and cleaned herself up. As usual, her clothes were on the bed because she had to take a shower before joining dinner.
Today all his work is done. He needs time with his wife. Talk about what activities are done all day. He hadn't talked to Marwa for a long time about it.
After dinner, Marwa chose to go out and sit in the weaving while enjoying the night sky with at least a twinkling star there.
The man came out of the house and joined his wife. “Can sit?”
Marwa nods and shifts giving Rey a place. “So buy same equipment Mama?”
“Mama go with Clara and Aunt Viona,”
“You're not coming?”
The woman nodded slowly. “Say Mama can't,”
“Why?”
“Mama said my leg was swollen. So you can't go anywhere,”
With a little bit of pity. For so long he had not watched his pregnant wife. Even he himself did not know that his wife's legs were swollen as his mother had said. “Mas can see?” he said slowly then changed seats to cross with his wife. Marwa hesitantly showed her legs.
Rey lifted his wife's leg and put it on her thigh. “Which one is swollen?”
“Calf section,” he said slowly.
Without any hesitation, Rey lifted his wife's skirt and opened his wife's socks and saw her calf growing a little more than usual. “Sorry yes, all this time I never knew about this,”
“Nothing, Mas,”
“Other times if anyone is sick say yes! Mas do not know you are sick or how,” said Rey and sorted with his wife's calf slowly. She was beautiful, and true to what her father had said. Moreover, what makes Rey fall into the trap of Alin to make him waste his beautiful wife like Marwa. “Mama said you yesterday had a contraction. Why have you never told me the same story? Mama said it was the sickest thing,”.
“You are busy working. Your company is no longer good. So where might I tell you when I can control it all,”
Rey didn't respond to that. But he discussed other things, “Unya enough to buy all the necessities?”
“Very enough,”
Rey is out of hat. “Mas, after our child is born, can I work?”
The man raised his head while continuing to slowly massage his wife's calves. “Why should work?”
“Pengin aja, Mas,”
He would never agree if his wife worked. “No, why should I work, I can still afford to earn your living,”
Marwa was silent, she pulled her leg so Rey would stop doing that. “I go to the room first yes, Mas. Thanks for being sorted. I want to neaten the items and baby clothes that Mama bought earlier,” said Marwa.
He was there for a moment after his wife left him alone in the living room. Rey just remembered that two months ago he had told his wife to make money not to bother her husband. He was really sorry to have said that. He immediately moved from where he was sitting and immediately ran to the room looking for Marwa's whereabouts.
Just as he opened the door, his wife was already asleep and had already tidied up the baby clothes he meant. There is also a small mattress and some other needs that have been prepared by his mother.
He joined the bed and kissed his wife's forehead before going to bed. It is true what Om Dimas said that a habit that once made him fall in love will restore that faded feeling. Rey realized that her feelings were fading. But in that way, guilt and regret often come to him.
Before going to bed, Rey picks up her phone and deletes all the photos along with Alin. In fact, he also did not hesitate to take out his card and break it just like that. “Because you are much more important than anything,” he said then slept next to his wife in a position to hug and caress his wife's stomach.
