Aksara For Arsyilla

Aksara For Arsyilla
Night Streets


In fact, Aksara felt something was being hidden by his wife right now. Seen from Arsyilla who some can not sleep, and his wife who suddenly sick. It seems, it is very unlikely that a lecturer who is quite qualified and has excellent teaching skills will eventually choose to resign. However, Aksara still will not force Arsyilla to tell him.


Tonight, after returning from Mother Kanaya's residence, Aksara actually pulled her car over at a night market.


“We stopped by here first yah?” bring Aksara.


The man immediately stepped out of his car and immediately opened the door for Arsyilla. His hand was stretched out and was about to hold his wife's hand.


“We take a short night walk .. find the wind,” say Aksara again.


Arsyilla smiled, not thinking that this time her husband would park his car on the shoulder of the road and take her down in a park that was holding an event like a night market.


“Night market?” ask Arsyilla.


“Iya .. want to take a night out with my wife,” Aksara said.


The two then joined hands, along the streets on the right and left so many sellers who peddle their merchandise. Some sell five-footed food. There are those who sell books, DVDs, various ribbons and socks, some even hold children's games such as fishing and also throw bracelets with soft drinks. The park was so crowded with entertainment there.


“Enter to the market the night before?” ask Aksara to his wife.


“I forgot ... only ever invited Mama and Papa in Jogja. In the home of relatives there is a night market kayak gini ahead of the Independence of RI. At that time I was a very small child, just like TK maybe,” Arsyilla's story while remembering the memories of her past.


Aksara smiled at the answer from his wife. “Oh, if I ... used to be at the Orphanage. If there is a night market like always a walk with friends. See the children fishing and get the gift already very seneng,” Aksara story now.


I don't think they both have their own childhood memories. Even with a different atmosphere, still both of them have memories with the night market.


“You need a snack?” the Tawar Aksara to his wife.


Just contact Arsyilla laughed, “Yes pardon .. This we are precisely like dating people. Still wearing formal clothes and night walks like gini. Everything at our sight, sister,” reply Arsyilla.


Because Arsyilla still wears a shirt and skirt, formal clothes while teaching on campus. While Aksara wore jeans and a shirt. Their fashion was not at all suitable for a walk in the market that night.


“Biarin .. We stopped by, Honey. How do you want something?” bargain Aksara again to his wife.


“You payin?” ask Arsyilla quickly.


Aksara nodded her head, “Iya .. I paid. What do you want?” tanyakanya.


“Buy Sweet Fragrance it can Kak?” tanya Arsyilla pointed at the seller Fragrant Sweet with a variety of funny shapes. That sweet fragrance looks adorable.


Aksara immediately brought Arsyilla closer to the Fragrant Sweet seller and ordered one Sweet Fragrance for his wife. In fact they saw how the seller made and formed Sweet Fragrance with a funny shape. Arsyilla looked so happy, not expecting to just buy Harum Manis only his wife was already looking so happy.


“Ihh, very funny Kak .. rabbit,” said Arsyilla who holds the Sweet Fragrance that she bought in the shape of a rabbit.


“Funny you, Honey,” Reply Aksara quickly.


Arsyilla pursed her lips, sometimes her husband's answer made her a manyun.


“Don't be so many, later I ask to kiss loh,” Aksara said while whispering in the ear of Arsyilla.


“Kak, don't do it dong .. just take a walk in a public place,” he said protesting her husband's remarks.


The characters laugh too. At least if he could not hear his wife's complaint, but he could bring happiness to his wife.


While taking a walk to see the various goods and food sold there, Aksara and Arsyilla saw so many families who took a night walk with their children. Someone took him, someone carried him, really a happy family.


“Do you see what Sis?” ask Arsyilla now.


“Compared for the family that brought the kids, Honey. Happiness in every family is different. Look, they're just a night stroll like, but look so happy. A lot of simplicity that can bring happiness,” explained Aksara.


“I agree, Sister...in fact with simplicity can actually bring so much happiness. Just like my family. Mama and Papa are so simple, but they are so happy,” replied Arsyilla.


Arsyilla then tightened her grip on her husband's hand and said, “Sama like I am happy to have you. Maybe at first I cursed my own fate. Regretting our marriage. However, as time went on to see your kindness and patience, I became convinced that you were the soul mate God sent me,” Arsyilla sincerely replied.


A smile just rose from the corner of Aksara's lips. The man wanted to hug his wife, but both were in public and crowded places. So Aksara just smiled and clasped Arsyilla's hand tightly.


“Have my hand forever, Syilla .. never let go of this hand. We will live our days every day. Whatever it is. Difficult or happy.  Healthy or sick, we will always join hands like this,” Aksara reply.


“Iya Kak .. I will always hold your hand. Just like you, never let go of my hand too,” said Arsyilla.


Both continue their journey. Sidelining the path so crowded with people and children. Until then the two choose to sit for a moment on the park bench while looking at the comedy swivel and ring lala flickering with the lights of various colors.


Arsyilla took a picture of Harum Manis which was bought by her husband, then opened it. Eat it there.


“Come on, try it,” said Arsyilla while giving a small piece of Sweet Fragrance to Aksara.


The man opened his mouth and received a Fragrant Sweet bribe from his wife.


“It's Fragrant, you Sweet,” chirps Arsyilla with a sudden.


Arsyilla chuckled with the words of her husband. “I'm not Sweet, Brother ...”


Arsyilla replied quickly, she really does not like being called ‘manis’. Either it feels so amused by the words ‘sweet.’


Aksara laughed, the man took a small part of the Sweet Fragrance and then fed it to Arsyilla.


“Now you ... eat this,” said Aksara.


Arsyilla nodded and then took the Fragrant Sweet bribe from her husband's hand.


“Because you are a bribe, it tastes sugar many times plus sweet,” said Arsyilla.


Both of them were equally tickled. Apparently the idea of stopping and taking a night walk is a powerful idea to make his wife look happy and so relieved. Truly, Aksara always wanted to see the happy face of his wife.


“You can just .. later so until the apartment do not forget to brush your teeth, this sugar content is very much,” Aksara message to his wife.


“Iya Kak... out of this greeting who bought this try?” lament Arsyilla now.


“I buyin .. but I'm a seneng, can buy you this Sweet Fragrance. From small I want to buy you Sweet Fragrance, can only be delivered now,” said Aksara again.


Slowly Arsyilla also looked at her husband's face, “Makasih Kak ..”.


Aksara knitted his forehead, “For what?” tanyakanya.


“Your ... My life is full of happiness. Thank you for bringing a lot of happiness in my life,” said Arsyilla in earnest.


“Sama-sama, Honey .. with you I am also happy. It would be happier if you could share everything with me. Tell me whatever you are going through,” Aksara replied.


Arsyilla seems to know where her husband's conversation is this time. Then the woman smiled.


“I always tell the same story you Kok Kak .. You're the first place for me to complain. Brother, I have submitted a letter of resignation, but want to be considered. Said the campus had its own considerations,” Arsyilla's story in the end.


Aksara also heard the story of his wife, “Honey, I do not care if you work or do not work that is important whatever your decision, I will appreciate it. Whatever your decision is, you will not regret it. Even if later after having children and you will return to teaching, I do not mind. I don't want you to lose something that awakens your passion for my sake,” Aksara said solemnly.


Arsyilla nodded her head, “Iya Kak .. so, so I resign or not later, depending on the campus Yes Kak,” reply Arsyilla.


The two then enjoyed the night again. Let the hustle and bustle of the crowd that seemed to frame the story of the two of them there.
