Durjana's In-law
Chapter 36. Kasmirah Sick

A few months later, the court had already decided on a divorce between Hanum and Ismawan. Seen remorse from his face because he saw his ex-wife was pregnant.

"Num, if our son is born, can I see him?"

"Of course, Mas. He's still your son, too. Oh, yeah, I'm sorry about you, yeah. Maybe all this time I haven't been a good wife to you."

"I should be the one apologizing, Num. I can't be a good husband and listener. I'm busy working. While you're busy making noise with Mom. I'm sorry."

"It's all over, Mom. I hope you can find another woman. I'll go back first, yeah. There's still work waiting."

It doesn't feel like letting go of Hanum. An independent woman who was wasted by her mother. When the injury occurs, it is very difficult to come back.

"Num, wait a minute! I have something to tell you."

"What is that, Mom?"

"Frequently come to the house. Oh, yes, if there's a chance to rejoice, maybe someday I'll be ready and will change everything that's ever been lost."

"I don't promise, Mas," said Hanum.

Kasmirah saw his son was very sad to make him regret. If you have lost, everything is new. There is no son-in-law as good as Hanum. Now he has to lose his daughter-in-law and future grandson.

"Is, forgive mom, huh?"

"Easy, Mom. Everything has happened. As hard as I can survive, I've destroyed it. Especially now that Hanum is pregnant. If the child is a boy, I will most likely find it difficult to return," said Ismawan weakly.

"Why is that, Is?"

"Did you forget that only girls need fathers? Girls need to get married later. As for a boy, without his father he could do anything."

Hope Kasmirah is now extinct. He wants a grandson, but when he finds out Ismawan is sad, he changes his wishes.

"Mother pray for Hanum's son, Is. At least you can see him all the time."

"It's not easy, Mom. Yes, if Hanum wants to refer. If not, how? He must have found someone better than me."

After divorce, it gets more complicated. While Hanum meets with Wardani. His old friend is always there when likes and sorrows.

"Hows it? Beres?"

"Alhamdulillah, War. Now I'm just waiting for the baby."

"Aren't you asking for anything with your husband?"

"No. I was intentionally. I don't want to be in touch with him anymore. Especially her mother. Let me be considered an evil ex-son-in-law. I need to be sane, too. Otherwise, his mother would have cheered me on as well. I don't want any more, War."

"Hemm, patience, yes. Oh, yeah, are you interested in remarrying later?"

Hanum reflexes hitting Wardani's hand. It's nothing, just a few minutes ago he got divorced. Wardani asked strangely.

"Eh, not my wrong question, is it?"

"Come, War. I want to focus on my son."

"Okay, okay. I agree that. If you want to get married again, that's okay. Spirit, yes!"

During his days, Hanum seemed happy. She also looks more beautiful in her pregnancy has entered 5 months. The cravings were accompanied by Wardani.

"Mas, what's wrong?" ask Hanum.

"Num, Mom's sick. He asked me to come here to pick you up. He wants to meet you. Do you want to?"

"What's your mother really sick about, Mom?"

"High blood, Num. He's always been delirious about you. Now it's in the hospital with Ayu."

Ah, that name again called. Why is there a vein of jealousy in the depths of Hanum's heart? Is he really not able to release Ismawan?

"If there's Ayu, why did you look for me, Mas? Ayu is the woman of choice. As for me, it's nobody to Mom."

"Num, just this time please see Mom. I asked for help," Ismawan said pleading.

It is not easy to make peace with the past. However, meeting his ex-wife is also not the right solution.

"I don't promise, Mom. I'm still busy. If so, I'll call you back. I still have my number, right? If it is still, you can send a message. No need to come here."

Hanum deliberately kept his distance from Ismawan. One reason is not to want her or her mother to know the development of her pregnancy this time. She's trying to be a strong woman who doesn't need the compassion of her ex.

"Really, Num? I'll just wait in the hospital tomorrow, yeah."

"I don't promise, Mom. It's coming in at the end of the month. So, it is likely that the stalls will be busier than usual. I'm sorry."

Ismawan left feeling empty. In the afternoon, Hanum wants to meet Wardani. He wanted to ask for advice from his close friend.

"Why are you, Num?"

"My mother-in-law is sick, War. Mas Is came here and asked me to see him."

"Want to?"

Hanum. "Come, War. Sometimes I am angry at his behavior. I always follow her requests, but she always hurts my feelings. Maybe she also forgot about being a woman who needed her daughter-in-law at a time like this. Actually I feel sorry, but my memory is always on when he ruined my marriage, War."

It's only natural that Hanum feels played like that. At the time of opportunity, Kasmirah also married Ismawan to Ayu. It felt like it was not satisfied to kick Hanum out of his house.

"If it's my advice, just come, anyway. You are, after all, his ex-daughter-in-law. When else do you show that you can live independently without your child? Hows it? If you follow the pain, yes, it hurts a lot, Num."

This was also not wrong, but there were other things that caused Hanum to worry. Although she does not know the sex of the baby, she feels that Kasmirah is trying to take her child.

"Why silence? Just tell me if there's something stuck in your mind!" wardani.

"If he asked for my son, what?"

Wardani took a deep breath. "That's your right, Num. Only a foolish and shameless former in-law would dare to behave like that. Unless your former in-laws used to be very meritorious in your life, then you let her down. It's different, Num. He is the one who destroys, he is the one who has to accept the consequences. If you are afraid to come alone, I am ready to go with you. How's it?"

Maybe it's good for Hanum to leave. Especially tomorrow as well as check her pregnancy which some days is delayed because of her busyness in the stall. The more days the stalls are so crowded that Hanum has to actually calculate the monthly needs of the stalls.

"See tomorrow, War. I still doubt. Especially there is Ayu too. I'm lazy to make a fuss, War."

"Your former in-laws are unique, Num. So, patience, yes! I will support whatever your decision is."

There were many things going on in Hanum's mind. It's not just about the pain that her in-laws are experiencing. He felt that the Kasmirah deliberately did that to provoke his arrival. If that happens, Hanum will definitely break up with her ex-husband.
