Stay or Leave

Ayunda arrived at her husband’s house after being from the hospital. Ayunda entered and climbed the stairs to her room. But just climbing a few stairs there was a voice of someone whose words made Ayunda feel hurt.

“How do you want to have children, if you are disobedient to your husbandYou should be aware of yourself, you have a husband who you must take care of and provide comfort, not even create problems and complicate things. But you arbitrarily didn’t go home and made your husband vent his anger on Bella who didn’t understand anything. it’s all because of you,” said Mrs. Ratih at length to Ayunda.

“I’m sorry, but Ayu has asked for permission from Mas David,” said Ayunda.

“I don’t know what makes David love you so much that he keeps you who can’t give him offspring,” complained Mrs. Ratih which made Ayunda’s heart sliced ​​instantly.

“I can definitely give a child to Mas David,” said Ayunda.

“Where’s the evidence, it’s been almost six years of marriage but you still don’t have any signs of pregnancy,” said Mrs. Ratih sarcastically.

“If there’s nothing to talk about anymore, Ayunda goes upstairs first,” said Ayunda.

“You are the same as parents, you are so brave, then how will you become a parent if you behave like that,” said Mrs. Ratih, stopping Ayunda’s steps, who was about to continue her steps up the stairs.

“I’m tired,” Ayunda answered bluntly. Indeed Ayunda is still in an unwell.

“Don’t blame David if one day David will leave you and divorce you with your attitude like that,” said Mrs. Ratih again.

“If David really wants to divorce Ayunda, Ayunda waits for that day to come,” Ayunda said and then continued her steps again without paying attention to the swearing spoken by her in-laws down there.

Arriving at her room, Ayunda immediately climbed onto the bed with her head down on the pillow.

“Don’t divorce me first before I give you a childAfter I’m pregnant with your child, you are free to do anything for me because later I myself will leave you, but not for now” Ayunda muttered with tears streaming down her cheeks.

Ayunda is determined to keep her child later when she is pregnant, even though her life is at stake.

In the evening, David came home from work and went straight to Bella’s room because he thought that Ayunda had not come home yet, to see his daughter.

“Where’s Bianca?” David asked Bella when he was in the room where Bella was staying but didn’t see his daughter there.

“In the same room as the nurse,” Bella answered casually without welcoming David home.

“Mbak Ayu came home this afternoon and had a fight with Mama,” Bella continued.

I don’t know what Bella’s purpose was in reporting the incident between her mother-in-law and her honey.

Meanwhile, David, who heard Bella’s story, immediately left the room without replying to Bella’s words. And that made Bella growl furiously.

David entered his room with Ayunda.

“Honey, you’re home,” said David, hugging Ayunda from behind, who happened to have just finished taking a shower and was standing in front of the closet to get clothes.

“Yes, sir,” Ayunda answered briefly without returning her husband’s hug. which usually if David hugged him from behind, Ayunda would definitely stroke her husband’s hand that was wrapped around his stomach.

“Where have you been?” asked David still hugging his first wife.

“I’m just walking with my friend, mas” Ayunda answered lying, even though Ayunda was just sitting in Akmal’s apartment.

“Mas miss you dear” David said while kissing Ayunda’s neck from behind.

Ayunda smiled bitterly at the confession of her husband who said he missed her. Instead of being happy, Ayunda actually felt hurt to hear David’s narrative.

“Do you miss me or my body?” Ayunda asked which immediately stopped David’s movement who was kissing him.

“Why do you say that, honey, of course I miss everything from you,” said David, turning Ayunda’s body to face him.

“Take a shower, mas, let me prepare the water first” Ayunda said changing the conversation.

“Okay,” replied David.

while waiting for her husband to take a bath, Ayunda prepared a change of clothes for her husband. It is Ayunda’s habit to patiently serve her husband from small things like this. Therefore, David is dependent on Ayunda.

Ayunda opened her cellphone and there was an incoming message from Sari’s doctor who this afternoon, Ayunda consulted.

[Okay] Ayunda replied replying to a message from doctor Sari.

Now David, Ayunda, Bella and Mrs. Ratih are having dinner together. No one spoke, only the clinking of spoons.

After a few minutes, they finally finished their dinner.

“Dav, you teach your old wife to have more respect for parents so that later she too can become a parent,” said Mrs. Ratih, who was still not satisfied with finding Ayunda’s faults.

“What’s wrong Ayunda?” David asked his mother.

“There was an old man talking to him but he just left,” said Mrs. Ratih to her son, glancing cynically at Ayunda.

Ayunda just silently listened to the conversation between the mother and child who was talking about it. while Bella had said goodbye to resign first with the excuse of wanting to see her daughter.

“Come on, maybe Ayu is tired,” said David.

“You have been blinded by Dav’s love so you always defend him even though Bella is much better than him because Bella has given you a complete family,” said Mrs. Ratih who was still looking at Ayunda cynically.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Didn’t I tell Mama, if David wants to divorce Ayu, Ayu will accept it, but I beg you, David, please don’t divorce me now. Give me a month or two more time. said Ayunda who was already furious with her father-in-law’s words while holding back tightness in her chest.

“I will not divorce you dear” said David

“It’s up to whatever decision, Mas, it’s clear that David wants to divorce you, not now, excuse me,” Ayunda said and got up from her seat, leaving her in-laws and husband.

Ayunda went back into her room after locking the door so David wouldn’t come in.
