It was bad to refuse, at Nining's request, Shehan would stay at her in-laws' house after her wedding reception with Lilis was over. In the house, a room that used to be Lilis's, has been decorated and prepared in such a nice way, to welcome the newlyweds' night to Shehan and Lilis.
Still dressed in bridal attire, Shehan and Lilis were both silent, sitting on the edge of the bed in opposite positions. Lilis was in a state of uneasiness. Likewise Shehan who seemed uncomfortable in one room with Lilis even though the girl had officially become his wife.
The awkward situation is based on a sense of unfamiliarity. Shehan is used to the status of Lilis who is the nanny of her daughter-Nurbanu. While Lilis is also used to Shehan's status which is her employer. However, the two must adapt because Lilis and Shehan are married and have become a married couple.
Shehan looked back. There was Lilis back and head that was still wrapped in a veil. Lilis herself did not dare to look back, the word "Wedding Night" alone had become a scourge for her. Confused to think what to do that night because of her status was only a contract wife.
"Lilis ...," call Shehan from his original position.
Lilis's mane glanced towards the shoots. I dare not look directly back. He was silent for a moment, the next five seconds just answered Shehan's call.
"Yes ... Mister."
"Sleep in bed. I'll just sleep under."
Their conversation occurred when Nining was already sleeping in the other room. Doni-Sister Lilis is forced to sleep in the living room. Because ever since Lilis went wandering, Doni was the one who occupied the room.
Lilis looked down after Shehan said he would sleep there. Only ceramic tiles in the form of boxes are there. There are no carpets or carpet. Shehan can sleep on the floor when all this time he sleeps on a luxurious, soft and spacious mattress.
"Sir, let me sleep there. Sir, sleep in the bed" suggested Lilis from across.
"No Lilis." Shehan got up, took out a folded sheet of blankets in the middle of the mattress. Standing facing Lilis. "You alone sleep on the bed, let me put this mat on and sleep under it."
Lilis then rose, face to face with her husband. She saw the blanket Shehan showed. "Let me, sir." Approaching Shehan. "I'm used to sleeping downstairs."
Lilis had to take the blanket, but Shehan prevented it.
"You may be used to it, but you're a woman who's my wife now. Let me just give in and sleep downstairs." Shehan gives understanding.
However, Lilis still felt bad. "But Mr ...."
"Lilis ...," Shehan said. "The first obligation of a wife is to obey her husband if that is a good thing."
So advised, Lilis could not dwell any more than according to. He lowered his gaze and replied gently. "Good, Sir."
"Now sleep!"
"But ...." The girl looked up to reach Shehan who was taller than her. "I'm going to change clothes first, sir."
Shehan was clumsy, then nodded briefly. "All right, I'll get out first."
"No need, sir. I'll just change clothes in the bathroom." Lilis took two pieces of her polite and comfortable clothes from the closet, then exited the room while hugging her clothes.
Shehan stretched the blanket he had been holding onto the floor. Justify the shape to be neat and not tangled. After that, a pillow was taken from the mattress, put the pillow on a stretch of blanket that has been turned into a bed.
Lilis returned when Shehan was ready to go to sleep. He observed Shehan's clothes still in their wedding suit. "Master, don't you change your clothes?"
Shehan sees himself. "I'll just wear this shirt." Then remove the tie and the outermost part of the suit. Next the vest, leaving only a long-sleeved white shirt and black trousers.
"here, Sir. Let me put it on the hanger." Lilis' hand is outstretched.
"Hhm ...." Shehan.
Suit, vest and Shehan tie, Lilis put it on a plastic hanger and then hook it on the door leaf hook. Finished, Lilis headed for the bed while Shehan was also preparing to lay his body down.
When both of them were in their respective positions, neither Shehan nor Lilis could sleep. Replacing positions many times, both of them still can not close their eyes. Lilis was awkward as this was the first time being in a room with a man. Shehan can't sleep because of the heat. Understandably, in the room there is no fan let alone air conditioner.
As a result, Shehan opened the top two buttons of his shirt, flicking his hands into the air to get a fresh breeze. Lilis slowly got up, sat on the bed, wanting to check on Shehan's condition.
"Sir, hot?" he asked when he knew Shehan was shaking his hands.
Lilis's eyebrows are linked anxiously. "I'm sorry, sir. No fan."
Shehan turned, only able to surrender. At that time, Lilis Tetiba's view highlighted the pile of gifts from invited guests arranged in a tiered corner of the room. One of the boxes looks pretty big. Lilis then went down, went that way. Shehan turned his head and watched Lilis actions.
Lilis lifted the gift box, shaking it several times.
"Your ... Duk ... Yoke!"
The sound of the shock was dense, the box was also quite heavy. Not wasting any time, then Lilis opened her card paper. After three minutes, the girl's guess was answered. Sure enough, Lilis estimates, the contents of the gift box is a fan.
"Sir, there's a fan!" Lilis semringah showed it to Shehan.
Shehan, who had been watching since, was delighted. "Yes already. Quickly turn! I've been hotter than that."
"Good, Sir."
Lilis' wide smile continued to expand as the girl carried the table fan she found near the power plug. After turning it on, the breeze directly hit, swaying the room curtain slowly.
Shehan heaved a sigh of relief, after getting a fresh breeze. Then lay her body again comfortably. "Lis, please increase the volume again to make it firmer."
"Yes, sir."
No!
Lilis pressed the second button, instantly the wind blew louder.
Ous ... Ous ... Ous ....
Lilis got up, approached Shehan. "Master, can you sleep now?"
"Yes, Lilies. Thank ye. You sleep now too."
"Eum .. good, sir."
It had taken three steps towards the bed when Shehan called out to him again.
"Came on!"
Lilis stopped, looking over from her position. "Yes, sir."
"Me, your husband now. You better think of a good call for me too, so as not to call me Master again. Others can be suspicious later."
'Solve one problem, come another problem, ' murmured Lilis.
"Yes, sir."
Lilis got into bed. Folding and tucking one hand under the pillow. He lay on his side, thinking of a proper nickname for Shehan.
