Trapped by Polygamy
Riana's Decision

***

Bima's confession made the blood flow in Riana's body seem to stop.

"Fall in love for the first time?" muttered Riana repeated what Bima just said to herself.

Riana turned around and left from before Bima, She needs a little space to understand the kramat said.

Falling in love for the first time? what does he mean all this time? haven't they been married for years? Is there no love in Bima's heart for her? own wife??

This fact is more painful than Bima's confession to want to marry again, Riana's heart was destroyed instantly, just like that, not left at all.

Does her naive self assume that every sweet word that Bima speaks, or every gentle touch that Bima gives her is love? Has Bima lived a household all this time without love?

"Riana wait.." Bima's voice sounded sad calling the name of his wife who momentarily stopped without turning around.

"Let me alone first Bim, at least give me some time to calm my heart" Riana replied wisely.

Right, right now he needed some time to calm his heart down, and understand everything at least with a cold heart. Thinking with all these emotions and wounds like this Riana knew it would be in vain, the woman who had always looked cheerful now turned 180 degrees, sadness and cuts of wounds as if enveloping her face.

Bima lets Riana go, she knows her wife is hurt and needs time to accept all of this. Unlike when Bima was so sure to say that she would marry again in front of the whole family, now the tears of the man just fell. I don't know what kind of sadness makes Bima cry now.

******

A few days passed since that day, Riana chose to stay at her own parents' house, she also took a leave of absence from her job.

Riana really tried to calm herself and contemplate time after time which brought her to the point where she would be the wife who divided her husband with another woman called the second wife.

Today Riana is ready to meet with Bima and return to talk about what they need to decide. Riana decided to wait for Bima in her house, while Bima who already knew that Riana was waiting for her also rushed home with great enthusiasm, honestly, almost a week not meeting with Riana made him miss his wife who always made him laugh with his trivial jokes.

"Have Bim gone home? take a shower first, I've cooked us dinner together. I wait at the dinner table" Sapa Riana after opening the door of the house welcoming the arrival of her husband, although without looking at Bima's face, Riana still grabbed the file laptop bag that Bima carried.

A hint of taste that mixed into nothingness just happened between the two of them, What a step Bima came to be greeted with the attention of a Riana who had been busy working her career and pursuing her dreams. It is not happy that Bima actually feels the guilt that is too deep to see the figure of his wife who changed softly without the crisp laughter that has been decorating their household.

"Alright, I take a bath first Ri.." Bima replied as she reached for her wife's fingers who was about to step into her husband's work space to put the laptop and file that Bima brought from the office.

Cup

The kiss of Bima's lips landed on Riana's forehead affectionately, even though it felt like their hearts had frozen, but the warmth was still radiating through the walls of their hearts that were equally hard.

"Thank you for coming, I miss you so much Ri" he said again.

"You are grateful because with my arrival you will be able to marry another woman Bim.." inward Riana who is still not fully recovered still corrects Bima's attitude and words negatively.

"Then wait a minute, I take a bath first" Although there was no answer from Riana's lips, Bima still tried to review the smile and gently stroke his wife's cheek before she passed and continued her intention to bathe.

******

"Mom, is Riana home yet?" riana's father said to his wife who was still curled up under his thick blanket.

Since that day, Nia's mother also felt a very heavy inner upheaval in her life.Who are the parents who willing their children in honey? even if there is of course that person is not Bu Nia, because he even fell ill thinking about the fate of the princess only wayangnya.

"Did Riana say something again? will he change his decision?" ask Johan again who still does not understand the decision of his daughter.

"No, we know how Riana, she is not a planner like Bima! un-concerned and unfaithful! why should our daughter marry such a man..!!!" nia's cry broke again considering all the problems that now befall Riana.

Johan who had been standing next to the bed began to regret the question he asked the wife, he should not discuss about Riana with his wife at this time. The man who was still wearing his office uniform grabbed his wife's body and hugged her tightly, trying to calm her mother Riana with all her warmth and affection.

"Marriage is not an easy thing to live, marrying one person only sometimes feels difficult, how will they undergo marriage with three people in it?" racau Nia in between her tears.

******

Riana and Bima finished their dinner quietly, without a word only the sound of the clanking of spoons and forks breaking the silence between the two.

Bima felt the atmosphere was different from his wife made him unable to open a conversation, because he knew his request, ah not a request more precisely the decision that Bima made was not an easy thing for Riana to accept.

"Have Bim finished?" said Riana.

"Yes Ri, thank you your cooking is always delicious and today the sauce is also not too spicy, I like it." replied Bima.

Riana nodded with a smile, looking down at Bima's heart waiting for what else will Riana say after a smile in the middle of this heartache?

"Alright, next time I'll make it as it is today" Riana replied.

Bima nodded in agreement.

"Bim.." said Riana, Bima looked at his wife's face carefully, waiting for what Riana's lips would say that looked a little pale as usual.

"Yes.. Ri..?" bima's answer sounded very slow and soft.

"Married to the woman, I agree." said Riana looked at Bima's face seriously.

Bima looked on in disbelief at his wife's face, did Riana really allow him to marry Serin?

"Ri." Bima replied in disbelief.

"But I have some Bim conditions" Riana.

"Say Ri, whatever it is, just don't leave me." replied Bima.

Silent for a moment, Riana who had arranged her heart with so much difficulty returned to feel the tightness that felt almost blew her entire feeling. But he remained adamant that his tears would no longer be the face of his heart's weakness.

"You love him, don't you?" ask Riana.

Bima nodded in response to Riana's question.

"Then you must also love me Bim.!" riana said firmly.

"That's my condition!" Rianna.
