Second MATCH
Farewell


"I'm sorry I can't make you happy Num."


Hanum just nodded unable to make a sound because from then on without being asked the tears just kept flowing.


Niko wiped those tears. He really did not want this to happen, but the heart could not force together.


Exactly a year passed after Hanum met Yudha at the market. Hanum never met Yudha again. He prefers to be at home looking after the twins. And so far she is not pregnant either.


"Sorry Hanum can't be a good wife to me."


The two hugged each other in the middle of his family who took Niko to the airport.


In the peck of Niko's head. And he let go of that hug after the call that the plane was about to depart.


"It's Num time."


Hanum nodded.


Niko sighed. "Bismil was bornrahmanirrahim, in a conscious state dropping talaq to you Hanum Inayah. And now it's illegal for me to touch you."


This is what they have agreed on but it is the same that it hurts the most. It is undeniable that the two admit that they have done the best thing for each other but realize that only until here they can be together.


Niko said goodbye to everyone including her two in-laws who had previously given permission for their decision.


At first did not agree until one year passed finally both Harry's parents agreed.


"Be happy Num. Mas pamit."


"Mas should also be happy, seek the remedy of your heart wounds. I believe there will be other women who give you love so broad and deep as you feel for Ayu" she said, not wanting Harry and Fadia to hear that.


"You too."


Then Niko experiences Harry and says goodbye to him. And when in front of Fadia, he could only clench both hands the same thing as Fadia did.


He realized, now Fadia no longer wanted to touch with those who were not noble to him.


...****...


Whose heart is not hurt to see his sister divorced from her husband?


At first Harry did not accept their decision but seeing how they were unhappy over their marriage made him forced to approve it.


He knew his sister's heart was still for his best friend. But that doesn't mean he wants to get them back together.


No, because Hanum had not yet learned that Yudha had been a widower from a year ago.


Harry brought his family home. No one spoke in the car but the three children.


His smile expands when he sees his three children telling each other through the rearview mirror in the car.


"Mother.. Gadhing wants to be called a brother."


Fadia looked at the firstborn. "Why would you call me brother?"


"Say Om Niko, Gadhing Medan's son."


Harry smiled again. "Okay, Gadhing called brother from today."


Gadhing cheered happily and the cymbals also followed him. Gadhing who was so meek made the twins very spoiled for her. Gadhing's gentle treatment often makes the twins quarrel because the struggle wants to continue with Gadhing.


"Mas, I want to work again." Hanum chirped as they just walked into the house and sat on the couch as did Harry.


"Where do you want to work? do you want to be in the government office again?"


Hanum. "I don't want to spend any more money."


Harry clucked. "It's also your money."


Harry dizzy looking for someone who had inhabited him earlier. He had not even heard his voice.


"Who are you looking for?"


"Your sister."


Hanum chuckles. "That's it, tell me who's the habit. It's almost too late, right?"


Harry scratched the nape of his neck. "Little children don't be so ignorant."


Hanum glared in disbelief. "Mas, I already know your habits if you want to go. Surely you are always styling the appearance of mbak Ayu but before that you were the same mbak."


Harry chuckled to hear it justifying his sister's speech and hugged the sister. "You're right and I'm sure you'll find him treating you like a queen, looking after you like a diamond. Don't ever feel alone Han, mas is always there for you."


"Mas.. Hicks.."


"Forgive the mas who once blocked your relationship with Yudha." There is regret in his heart. He participated in their separation at that time.


Hanum just shook his head. "We're not a fool."


Harry broke down a hug looking gently at his sister. "Where to go to the room, rest. Tomorrow is a new day and remember, never listen to what the neighbors say again."


"Yes." Yeah."


Yes, the age of her marriage with Niko almost two years but not yet pregnant makes a bad stigma for her.


When pregnant?


A stool?


that's what's often thrown around. Moreover, knowing his brother first time newly married, the next month his wife immediately became pregnant increasingly making him judged badly.


...****...


In the morning Hanum was about to enter the kitchen but he paused because he saw Harry making out with Fadia.


"I don't know the place." she grumbled and went back into the room wearing an instant hijab, wearing a plisket skirt and cardigan without taking off the negligee she was wearing. Not to forget the phone and money twenty thousand then he put it in a rubber casing that wraps his phone.


He took the keys to his motorcycle and walked out of the house. In the starter motorbike matic then forwarded to the grocery store that he had not been to for a long time.


Not too far away, but because it deliberately reduces the speed of the motorcycle so that a little long to get to the grocery store.


He was enjoying his solitude.


From today on she is a young widow. The negative stigma is on him.


One that he is grateful for, from his first marriage has not been entrusted to have children. Not that he did not want to, but at least his son would never hear anything negative for him.


Hanum smiled when the grocery store was crowded because the grocery store was famous for delicious, many, and cheap.


Everyone's desire, right?


Parked his motorcycle next to his other motorcycle. Then go into the stall to order a serving of vegetable pontong.


He circulated the view looking for an empty chair turned out to be in the corner. While waiting for the order to come he chose to surf in cyberspace.


"This is your order Han."


*deg


That voice*!


Hanum looked up to confirm his hearing and it was true that it was Yudha and he always cursed himself who was still like this when he met Yudha.


His heart was beating great, nervous, yet he missed it.


"Thank you" he said, trying to be ordinary, but he was getting nervous to see Yudha sitting in front of him because it just happened to be in front of his empty chair.


"alone?"


Hanum nodded then put the phone next to his plate and started his breakfast.


As much as possible he did not look at Yudha because a year did not meet her made the man in front of her look so charming.


Looks more mature at the age of almost stepped on the figure of 30 years.


"Why is breakfast outside?" ask Yudha.


Hanum looked up and then looked down again. Really scared to be fascinated.


Remember Num, he's a man's husband.


"Yes, the kitchen's under Harry's control." Suddenly he came back furious to see his brother who did not know the place.


Hanum raised his gaze towards Yudha who was laughing at her words. Then he looked down because he could not bear the charm of Yudha.


*Remember, he has a son and a wife and you are a widow now. Tap the hammer yet.
