Woman Without Womb
Chapter 27 - No Other Options

Maudy can't wait for tomorrow. Tomorrow is Sunday which means he will go with Hermawan to visit the orphanage called the man and this Saturday he chose to take his leave and all want to pack a snack for him bring it later and Maudy's excited behavior from earlier turned out to make Farhan who had seen before want to not be curious.  

“You look so happy, what's up?”

Maudy stopped her activities and smiled widely.

“Tomorrow I will do things you never permit at all. Yes that's why I'm so happy dong .. because I have been wanting to do this for a long time tuh.”

“What do you want to do?” wonder Nadya. “This is a lot of gini snacks, what do you do. Make my son later? Still long brother .. who has food stale. So, instead of brother bothering to prepare all this. Mending ready later aja.”

“Who would love you?” maudy asked while shrugging her shoulders. “Suami you are rich, let him buy you snacks like gini. Not me... I have no rights at all.”

Maudy put some chiki in the cardboard and did it again. Ignoring them.

“You have not answered the question mas loh,” remember Farhan who was silent earlier. “Why don't you work, because usually Saturday you're already at the office? So, what is all that cake for? And where are you going? Mas never give your permission where until you want to go to that place and can be as happy as this.”

“First ... I deliberately took a leave of absence, to buy this all. I want to give my best for tomorrow go.”

“You're leaving tomorrow?” asked the astonished Farhan. “Can't remember tomorrow's weekend? And from the beginning, I asked you not to use Sunday for work. Because Sunday you have to be dedicated here. To our families. Not even going that way. Where you haven't permission ..”

Always like gini. Maudy looked at Nadya as Farhan sat on the sofa while she was below it.

“Gini yes mas .. from a few weeks ago aja, you and Nadya always leave without me. If you make a deal, you should also do it, not ask me to pray. And all this time, I passed on Sunday I was alone doang tuh and I also never protest at all.”

“But right ... as if you permission the same mas.”

“Iya .. I ask permission. I ask permission from my husband who must be respected continuously but do not want to be respected—

“Why did you say that?” exclaiming the stubborn Farhan. “Mas has tried not to bandingin you with Nadya. But you made your own bandinginya. Try the example of Nadya kayak, she always respects her husband aka mas. He never imagined anything and most importantly. He's a nut. Not like you ..”

“Yes ... Yes ... Yes ... I used to be like Nadya. I am a wife who does not dispute you. I always listen to you and most importantly. I have never refused any of your requests. And I changed too because of you .. because you can't appreciate me at all.”

“Kak ...,” call Nadya in low voice. “Why is my sister just in fact Farhan mas aja? I'm sometimes the same as Farhan deh. He's like an inner pressure if that brother keeps like gini.”

Farhan nodded in agreement and hugged his second wife. “Indeed only you doang who understand the same feeling mas.”

Maudy who was looking just sniffed her shoulders.

“As far as you mean, brother should also be angry with you?”

Nadya shrugged indifferently, “but instead of angry brother can explain everything well. Mas Farhan is just a doang loh. My brother answered well. No need to fight gini. I also want to live a quiet life .. tired me if you continue to hear the same Farhan brother who fights constantly. Kayak ... I'm also tired loh.”

The woman nodded as she piled up all the cardboard.

“Dek .. big brother is also tired of living like gini. Brother also wants to live quietly without getting angry. But once you come here, you can't. Everything is too complicated and sister can only be angry to vent everything.”

“True mas,” said Nadya with sadness. “I came to make Maudy's sister sad. I'm the wrong one here. I can't gini anymore. I want to go ..”

“Don't Nadya .. don't enter your sister's talk. Maudy was emotional, so she didn't think about talking about it. You don't have to care about him at all, you are quite focused. Don't be the same with him and also .. for Maudy, I ask you to stop being angry. Nadya Kasian. She is pregnant and should be living in a good environment. Let the mas boy calm down in there.”

“Even his first wife fell ill and in high blood diognosa only you do not care,” Maudy murmured while lifting all the big cardboard.

“Greater again?”

“Iya .. because only he knows I doang,” he replied as he went into the room and piled all the cardboard in there.

Maudy came back out with her little bag. There were still some things he had to buy first. But just about to come out the voice of Farhan made his steps stop and turned to Farhan.

“Do you have any relationship with Hermawan?”

Maudy mutters little, “relationship huh? He was just my best friend. Oh yes ... not just a friend, but Hermawan is also my coworker. He's the one who understands me the most against my own family. Why is it mas?” asked Maudy casually.

“Your husband? There is mas loh .. mas far understand you in appeal to anyone. Why are you even talking like that? Not only that, there is your sister. Nadya must have known you. He lived with you from childhood. So there's no reason she doesn't know you.”

Maudy smiled thinly. Why does her husband know better? He ruffled his waist and stepped forward Farhan with Nadya. Make Nadya immediately hugged Farhan's arm tightly, seeing that Maudy just laughed and shook his head.

“Where yes ... calm Nadya, sister will not take your husband because you have already seized it first. So, there is no reason for your brother to be jealous. . Now I ask you. Do you know my biggest disappointment in life? Until I feel like I can't live happily anymore? You know why I feel like it's because of what?”

They were silent without answering at all.

“Or not .. Do you know why I stayed at this wedding? I could not even get a divorce. Without having to worry about heartache because of your behavior.”

Seeing the two who were silent made Maudy cluck and ruffled her waist in front of them.

“HMM ... or not, you know not. Why did I want to marry Farhan? Or ... You know not during school. Why am I always quiet and not having many friends? Or gini deh ... you guys do not now that I insist on working. Or do I have no friends around here? You didn't?”

Maudy is increasingly being made speechless when none of them answers among all the questions she asks.  

“Can't answer, right? Because in fact you never try to find out what I have and I want. You are always selfish with yourself until you do not know how I am and my condition.”

They're still quiet.

“So ... It is true, if only Hermawan knows me the most. He knows how I feel. While you? You guys are nothing.”

“...”

Maudy smiled faintly, her heart a lot more hurt. The fact that he is not that important makes him have to be aware of all this.

“Mas .. I know you are not excited about me. I know that now you have a wife and a child that you can be proud of. But don't forget me. .. at least until you haven't announced this divorce. If you don't like me. Yes stay putin me mas.”

Maudy opened their wedding ring and put it on the table. Farhan simply continued to follow Maudy's whereabouts without speaking at all.

“You stay divorced me and are free to do anything with my sister. With nahan I'm here. Even if your lives are not free, right? So what am I doing here? No. .. I'm not important to you either. I have no pride in your eyes. Instead of making you sin. Meningan you release me.”

The woman took a deep breath.

“Sorry if I said gini .. but you failed to be a good husband for me,” said he made Farhan's heart slit.

And Maudy chose to leave, calming the same heart of her shaken soul.
