"Why did you say that kayak? Appreciate Bayu's feelings, dong, sir! You should support their marriage. Don't make Bayu more stress with the words of the Father." Ambar raised the volume of his voice so that Herman who went away, could hear his words. However, the one being spoken to kept walking away regardless of Ambar's words.

"Sir! The father! Shit mom first! I'm not done talking, sir," cried Ambar again. The frown on his forehead was increasingly obvious painting anger sticking out in his head.

"Udahlah, Ma. Don't argue with father. Importantly, right, Bayu did not want to divorce Aisyah. Bayu will still try to defend the Bayu household with him," said Bayu while holding his mother's body who was about to stand. Ambar intends to catch up with her husband, and tells him to come back.

Ambar looked at Bayu's face, then took hold of his son's shoulder, and rubbed it gently. "Mother is proud of you, Bayu. You are not affected by your father's words. You also want to admit your mistakes, and try to fix everything. I hope you remain patient to take Aisyah's heart again, yes," she advised.

Bayu nodded his head. A bitter smile was on his lips. Actually, he was not sure that he could melt Aisyah's heart, given Aisyah's attitude that looks upset with her decision to divorce Bayu.

...************...

The sky was dark when Bayu arrived at his contract. The sun's job has been replaced by the moon to shine light on the earth. The moon was alone, not a single star accompanied. Like Bayu's figure now. Unaccompanied by his wife, his life felt empty and lonely.

Bayu does not necessarily clean themselves after a day of activities outside the home. After putting his motorbike into the house, Bayu went to the room, then lay his tired body on the bed. His gaze led to the ceiling of the room with a glaring look. His mind was in turmoil, accompanying his troubled heart.

"Sorry, Deck!" monologue with a clean. His head turned to the left. The place where Aisyah usually falls asleep next to him. He misses the figure of his wife, even with his son Zahra—.

Bayu regrets his attitude all along, and intends to change into a better husband and father. He also ignored Indar. He did not want to think of any other woman other than his wife, son, mother, and sister. Only those women deserve the attention of Bayu now. No other woman who is not her muhrim can pestilence Bayu life again.

Bayu tilted his body, then rubbed Zahra's small pillow. His lips covered a smile, but his heart was so hurt. Without feeling her tears flowing from her eyes. Bayu really missed his son and wife, and regretted all his labile behavior during this time.

...**********...

Grey clouds dotted the sky in the Eastern horizon this morning. It blocks the sunlight that is about to shine on the earth. Raindrops adorned the window of Aisyah's room. The ground and trees outside were wet.

Aisyah usually immediately struggled with work in the kitchen after performing dawn prayers, but now the woman even went back to sleep while hugging her only daughter. The cold made him lazy to do his job.

"Sir, you're not awake yet?" The sound of knocking on the door accompanied by a call from Agung made both Aisyah's eyes blink. Slowly, his eyes opened after a second call from his father.

"Yes, Sir. A minute!"

Aisyah got up from the sleeping battle, then walked to the door and opened it.

"You're having bad luck?" Agung immediately raised a question as the door opened.

"No, Sir. It was after the dawn prayer that Aish slept again."

"Oh .. I thought you were bad luck. Tumben you sleep again, usually make breakfast," chortle Great. Actually the man was hungry, but felt sad if he told his son to make breakfast.

A few minutes later, Aisyah had finished cooking fried rice for breakfast herself and the father. The two ate together, but Zahra had not yet awakened from her sleep.

"Sir, can you talk?"

Aisyah looked up from the plate to her father's face. "From now on, didn't you, I've been talking" he joked.

Grand smile. "Speak another. A little serious."

Aisyah looked at Agung's face while frowning her forehead. His mouth full of food stopped chewing for a moment, then downed drinking water to swallow the food directly.

"What are you talking about, sir?" ask Aisyah curiously.

"The problem of your household with Bayu. Are you seriously going to get a divorce with her?"

Aisyah let out a rough sigh. He had thought that his father would discuss this. "Aish seriously, sir. From the beginning of the marriage, Mas Bayu's rude attitude was already visible. Aish was trying to be patient. Maybe it is such a basic attitude, firm and hard. But it turns out that Aish was wrong, because Mas Bayu's hard attitude was only applicable to Aish. Aish saw for himself that Bayu's attitude towards women was very different from his attitude towards Aish, sir. Mas Bayu always relented and was gentle with Indar, while Aish was always required to be independent.

"Aish is his wife, should be more attention Bayu Aish than the woman, even the Bayu mas also ignore Zahra if the woman has asked for his help. Aish is heartbroken, sir. But Bayu is not fair to us. How does Aish not think that they have nothing to do, while Bayu always defends him." Aisyah cried when expressing her regret all this time towards Bayu.

Agung just kept quiet listening to his son's complaints. One side he felt sorry for Aisha who was feeling depressed, but one side he thought of Zahra's fate. The child is too young if both parents are separated. He still needs the complete affection of both his parents.

"But I noticed, yesterday Bayu seemed very sorry and did not want to divorce you, Aish. Maybe he learned from his mistakes after you left. Don't you want to give it a chance?" agung.

"Mas Bayu is a plan, sir. His attitude changes often. Aish was also confused by his attitude." Aisyah was still insistent. It was as if his heart and mind were already filled with ugliness. The woman with one child is ready to divorce her husband.

"But, son, think about your decision again. Don't you feel sorry for Zahra? He's a kid, son." The Great tried to persuade Aisha. He was sure that his son's decision was wrong, because even though the divorce was changed, but not favored by God.

"It's precisely because Zahra was a child, so Aish was sure to divorce Bayu. If you're waiting for Zahra to grow up, maybe she'll understand and be hurt by her father's behavior."

Aisyah's sorry door seems closed to Bayu. For him, he had enough patience all along. He does not want to keep getting hurt.
