Pursuing My Husband's First Love
What Was Mariam Bad? MUSA HAMIZAN POV

"Mariam ... !" The call just came out of my mouth when I saw Mariam standing up and leaving, at a glance I saw Mr. Bian and Medina looking at me, my heart was almost out of control.

"Sorry Mr. Moses, I can't persuade Mariam more than that" Mr. Bian said, making me even more unwell.

"Hhhm, sorry Mr. Bian once again sorry!"

☘☘☘☘☘

That night I saw Mr. Bian sitting near the mosque complex with several residents. I approached him and Mr. Bian introduced me to the surrounding residents, my busyness made me not have time to plunge into society. But Mr. Bian kindly introduced me to other citizens, making it easy for me to enter and hang out with here.

"So what is this work of Moses?" ask Mr. Sholeh.

"I am lecturer Pak, new and have to go back and forth Bogor-Jakarta because he teaches in Jakarta as well" I replied briefly.

"Oh, Young Lecturer. Hopefully at home in this neighborhood, Mr. Moses," he added later.

"Thank you sir, next time I will be more active in the community, now please understand the fathers not I do not want but I am still new so there is still a lot of work."

"No papa Pak Musa, just relax," overwrite the others, I haven't even memorized their names one by one.

"Sir Moses may I speak to you?" ask Mr. Bian.

"Please," I felt a little worried about what Mr. Bian was going to talk about, after everyone left and left only me and Mr. Bian, I immediately asked him back.

"So, what's wrong, Mr. Bian?"

"Sir Musa graduated abroad?" ask Mr. Bian.

"Yes, I am a graduate of Tarim, Yemen" I replied without suspicion.

"That's right that Mr Moses is my wife's ex-boyfriend, Mariam?" ask Mr. Bian without hesitation.

I was surprised by a question beyond my prediction.

"Hemm, maybe yes if Mariam thinks I am," I replied ambiguously, but Mr. Bian can firmly draw conclusions from my answers.

"Ohh, it's so nice that Mr. Moses finally we can meet, I was curious about the figure of my wife's first love."

"Don't get me wrong, sir, if I had known he was here I would have chosen another city."

"Oh, so you guys are both avoiding each other? Mariam used to ask me to take her for a new life, but I'm sure she just wants to forget you sir" every word Mr. Bian made me locked up and couldn't answer anything.

"Don't worry Mr. Moses, I'm just curious. But I am proud, it turns out that my wife's taste is quite high, hahaha ... " Mr. Bian laughed while patting me on the shoulder, really a comfortable figure even though our topic of conversation was too sensitive.

"Hehe .. that's not it, Mr. Bian this can be,"

"It's not easy sir for me, convincing my wife to move on, even it seems that until now Mr. Moses still has an unusual meaning in my wife's heart."

"Sorry Mr. Bian, I don't understand, because the story was so long ago."

"Yes I don't know sir, it's just nebak."

"Hhhh? I'm not upset, Mr. Moses, I'm happy. I used to seek contact Mr. Moses everywhere, but it was difficult and did not meet, now it is in front of me the person, yes how? Mariam still seems to be disturbed by your story, I once promised myself that I would look for Mr. Moses to see you, let my wife can upload directly what is still stuck," he said long.

"It's been a long time, but I still want the same words myself, although Mariam has changed a lot and is much better than it was in the past. But it's good I keep saying to Mr. Moses, yes it may have been the way like that, you guys met again when Mariam's feelings were much better, he said, had you met before this maybe Mariam's reaction would have been worse," continued Bian, I could only listen and absorb Bian's love for Mariam implied in each of his words.

"What was Mariam bad?"

"Quite enough, it seems like Mr. Moses was the greatest love of his life, Mariam was sad when sad, but I also did not want to give up because I believe he was my soul mate at that time."

"I am happy that Mr. Bian is the one who became Mariam's match, no one is better than Mr. Bian even me. I ... also feel the same, sorry sir my feelings were once so great for Mr. Bian's wife."

"No papa Pak Musa now we are both adults, come to the house Sir talk to Mariam so you can both talk, talk as an old friend it must be easier."

"Sir Bian doesn't mind?"

"No, come!"

☘☘☘☘☘

I looked back at Medina, the look on her face was sad, either because of Mariam who left or because of Mariam's words. We immediately say goodbye to Mr. Bian, because Mariam's condition is not possible to talk to.

At least I know Mariam's real reason, and what calms me the most is Bian's figure as her husband. Now is no longer my reason to not be sincere and not forget Mariam, it's time to close the old story and start a new one.

Arriving at home I embraced Medina tightly, because of her patience I was able to find a sincere point to release my feelings for Mariam.

"Why Mas?" ask Medina.

"Thank you Dek, mas is better now, it seems that from now on mas will no longer dream about Mariam," I told her, realizing the burden of feeling wrong on Mariam as if she was yawning one by one.

"Hemm, actually Mas has never delirious Mba Mariam's name again since meeting Mba Mariam that afternoon," said Medina, and a small smile was painted on the corner of her lips.

"really?" my question was to make sure, Medina just nodded, I was very happy to hear it, the definition of being happy after Mariam's presence was so I felt. Not happy because of the wrong taste, but his arrival actually presents a sense of sincerity.

"Mas knows Mariam is a matchmaker with the right guy Dek, mas is calm with it."

"Medina was also happy, let alone seeing Mas Musa as happy as this."

"Thank you for everything Dek, Mas promises to love you more deeply than love for Mariam. We start again as a new leaf, and .. excuse me for making you sad Deck, all your tears will be replaced with happiness." Everything I said to Medina was pure from my heart.

Medina smiled and cried at the same time, I appreciated her sacrifice, I cherished her love for me, I cherished her patience and tenderness.

I wiped the tears that ran down her cheeks, I was just sure she was happy too. I'm sorry I'm late for being a good husband.

"Thank you, Medina is so happy...thank you!" Medina hugged me again with her tears.

Meanwhile somewhere else, Mariam released her cries in Bian's arms. Bian just fell silent while patting his wife's back softly.
