The Hated Wife
61

"Lita's.." Fahri walks over to Lita who makes a face from her. Lita's clenched hands shook withstanding all the pain she had been getting all this time trying to stay strong so as not to be afraid.

David sees his sister's slightly shaking hands as Fahri tries to get closer. David pulled Fahri's hand and stood in front of Lita at this time.

"Don't approach my sister, you don't see. He didn't want to see you" David stared intently at Fahri.

"So please, let me talk to him. I. I will.." Fahri's stammered speech instantly stopped as Lita shifted her brother and stood in front of him at this moment.

"Why else would you like to talk to me, I'd no longer want to talk to a jerk like you. Go, go from before me" said Lita braced herself against Fahri she pushed hard the man's body to get away from her at this time. Fahri was immediately pushed to see the face of Lita who was angry with him.

"Lita, please, give me a chance. I'm sorry for what I've done to you all this time. Please give me.."

"No more chances for you, I hate you. I hate you" cried Lita quite loudly.

Lita's gaze immediately turned to look at her Papa,

"Now Papa chooses, I go back to Indonesia or Papa chooses that jerk. If Papa chooses him I will never return to Indonesia and assume I am gone" Lita said steadily.

Nafa who heard that walked straight to her husband holding her arm.

"Pa, Pa Mama please. Lita Pa, Lita Mama wants to be with Lita Pa" said Nafa pleading with her husband.

Aryo fell silent he was confused as to which one he should choose.

"Thalita I beg you, trust me. I'm sorry, please come back for our son's sake I'll make amends. I beg you" said Fahri very pleading before Lita.

"Come brother, let's go. I don't want to be here anymore" Lita told David. He ignored Fahri who was blocking his steps at this moment.

"Rey, Naya let's go" David told two people standing at Lita's doorstep.

"Pa, Papa prefers that stupid man rather than Lita's brother who is Papa's son" Thalia said upset when she saw her father who was silent.

"Stop, what are you leaving your family for. Well I give up Lita, you don't have to go with the wounds you brought for leaving your family. Me, I'll go. You go home to your parents. I will give you time to heal the wounds I once inflicted on you. I won't see you anymore" Fahri tightened his hands on either side. Occasionally shutting his eyes trying to neutralize himself. He had to give up this time, he would give a pause in healing for Lita who was injured because of him. He would disappear for a while from Lita's life letting the woman live a quiet life without him.

"Pa, thank you for standing up for me and for always thinking of me as your daughter-in-law. You don't have to be confused, Pa, I'd rather go than Papa and Mama lose your son." fahri said walking towards Aryo and hugging the middle-aged man endured the sad turmoil as he had to give up this time.

"Sorry Papa Fahri" said Aryo returning a hug Fahri patted gently on the man's shoulder.

"It's okay Pa," replied Fahri releasing a hug while smiling bitterly. She turns to embrace Nafa but Nafa dodges.

Fahri fell silent while smiling wryly, his in-laws had hated him ever since he found out he tortured Lita.

"I go first, Pa Ma" concluded Fahri stepped, he saw Lita who was in front of him at this time walking closer to Lita who was afraid to retreat.

"Take care of yourself, and take care of our son Axel. You two will always be in my heart" said Fahri in Lita's ear, Lita herself turned her face not looking at Fahri.

He just saw it, his mind was crying to see his son who was carried by someone else.

Fahri immediately stepped away without saying another word to them. He felt so deeply scratched, forced to give up for now. Let him give up first so that Lita can recover from her trauma.

………………

Today Lita will return to Indonesia, her hiding seems to be enough here. He actually still does not want to return even though Fahri is gone from his life. But because Mama Nafa made her to return her mother begged her very much to return home.

Lita carried her child in the plane sitting next to Naya who was with her. Actually, Rey is going to sit with him but he feels bad with Thalia even though Thalia and Rey already have no relationship but still he feels bad with his sister.

"Lita let me just carry your child" said Naya will take over the Lita anka held by the woman.

"No need to mbak, let me carry him. From that moment on, it's not like Naya continues to carry" Lita refused to feel bad because Naya was carrying her child.

"It's been almost a week, you haven't given this child a name. After we're in Indonesia, will you give him a name?" ask Naya to Lita. Because Lita never gave her name to her son even though David, Rey and herself already have a name recommendation for the baby born Lita.

Lita fell silent, she recalled the time a few days ago where Fahri gave his son a name. Named his son Axel, did he have to use that name as his son's name.

Indeed he hated Fahri so much but anyway this is also the boy. Of course the man has the right to name his son. So she had to use that name for her baby.

"Lita why are you quiet,?" Naya nudges Lita's arm slowly.

"Ah, how mbak" said Lita who realized, she immediately looked at her brother-in-law.

"Why are you silent, ask if you'll give him a name. You already have a name for your son" asked Naya again.

"Sir, I can tell the same story as Naya" asked Lita who seemed hesitant.

"May, just tell me"

"When I was born yesterday. The man gave my son his name, I took his name or I gave my son another name."

"She's already given your son a name, good then. It's his right to give your son a name. What's name?"

"He named my son Axel Devino Atmaja, I should use that name"

"Wear it's okay, it's Lita's right. However, he is still the father of your child" concluded Naya looks happy because the baby in Lita's sling already has a name.

"Then that's the name," replied Lita. He still hates Fahri but still it's Fahri's right to name his son so he just use that name.
