Chapters 11. Marsha's Exile
Chapter 11
"Will Brother Arga stay there again?" marsha asked softly.
"Yes. I'm sorry Marsha can't take you there, because pregnant women are not good long stay in the hospital. The place of many viruses and diseases," answered Arga feeling guilty.
'Anyone who wants to go to the hospital. I was just asking if he'd stay over like last night or not, Marsha's inner self.
"Then I'll be alone here tonight. Can I get someone else to stay here with me?" reply Marsha with a wry smile.
"What do you mean? You'll invite men here!" snapped Arga.
There seems to be romance does not like the look of Arga's face. However, Marsha ignored that, pretending not to care. How dare he invite a man to a house at night.
"I want friends too. Last night I couldn't sleep because there were a lot of strange noises here" Marsha said.
The woman held back her laughter from not expecting Arga's reaction. I don't know why Marsha's so nosy to this guy. Maybe to repay his actions and actions. Prayer alone is not enough to change her husband, but it must be by action as well.
'Great son you can take care of the woman, while I who is now your responsibility is left alone, ' inner Marsha.
Arga frowned because all this time he had never heard such sounds. Day or night, alone or with someone else.
"What sounds do you hear?" ask Arga curiously.
Marsha did not think that the speech that was a joke was taken seriously by Arga. It's been a responsibility once just continue his mess. After all, this man would not necessarily believe either.
"Yes, like someone said, "Go home", in a soft voice, I see. What does it mean that I was sent home? Or maybe the residents here ask Arga to come home?" marsha answered with a serious face.
Hearing Marsha's words just now Arga became goosebumps. He thought that the residents in his apartment wanted the owner not to leave here or not to stay outside.
"I–tu, really?" tanya Arga is still unsure of Marsha's story.
"Maybe the waiter here likes Brother the same. So, she was jealous that Arga's sister was staying outside. Careful, loh! Later he can find the whereabouts of Brother out there," replied Marsha.
There is a sense of pleasure felt by Marsha at this time. Looking at Arga's slightly pale facial expression was like this. The woman looked towards the wall clock there was still time to continue her nosy drama.
"It seems like my brother rarely prays and teaches, huh? That's why the devil likes to live here," said Marsha immediately hit the heart of Arga.
Inevitably Arga must justify Marsha's words. The last time he prayed in his apartment was not sure when. He also returned to the village of prayer only when invited by his father to the mosque.
"Yes, I'll try to go home later. Don't have any thoughts of going home. What would people say if they saw you coming home alone" Arga said.
"If until tonight Brother Arga does not come home again, I will go home. There is a father, mother, and two in-laws who will take care of me. If people talk I don't care, just say it's cravings. Then everything's sorted out. At least my parents and two parents Kak Arga who will nag Brother," said Marsha casually.
The woman thought that if she wanted to change the character of Arga do not openly. His high self-esteem will not like when there are others who advise him frontally or loudly.
Arga fell silent and confirmed Marsha's speech. If that happens, then he will have trouble later. Meanwhile, he is a person who lacks patience if there are many people who corner him.

Arga came to see Valerie again. Just like yesterday, he spoke of the good memories of the past. A love story that often makes people jealous of them. The intimacy that they always do anywhere and anytime. They are a romantic couple and always a couple.
"Baby, don't you want to go back to feeling the good times you used to?" Arga kisses Valerie's handcuffs.
"If you're conscious, I'll take you for a walk wherever you want to go" Arga continued. Now the man stroked the lover's thin cheek.
The night was getting late and Arga was still sitting there. All this time he missed his girlfriend. Both of Valerie's parents forbid visiting her. This woman's mother died four years ago. This is allegedly due to the exhaustion of taking care of Valerie and also the deep sadness of seeing the state of her beloved daughter lying down like this. Meanwhile, her father Valerie died about six months ago of coronary heart disease. So, only now could he see her.
The alarm went off and Arga was immediately aghast. How surprised he was when he saw the clock showing at 06:00. He didn't realize he was asleep last night. Then, he immediately went home to his apartment.
Something was different when Arga came into the apartment. No smell of cooking and the atmosphere is very quiet. He also looked through the room there. Marsha's not in the kitchen. Then he knocked on the door of the woman's room, but there was no word from within.
"Marsha, aren't you awake yet?" Arga asked after a few knocks.
Afraid something might happen to Marsha, Arga opens the door. But the wife was not there. He thought that the woman was taking a bath, but when he saw that the place was empty there was nobody.
"Where's Marsha going?" Arga muttered while trying to contact him.
Call he's not connected. Marsha's number is inactive. Want to ask others, do not know who to contact, because Marsha does not have a brother who can be contacted by him. Friend, there is not a single number of acquaintances of the wife that he has.
Arga then remembered Marsha's words yesterday afternoon. The man grabbed his hair out of annoyance.
"He didn't really go back to the village, did he?" Arga monologues while pacing.

Where did Marsha go? Is he really coming home? Follow their story, yes!
