Memories


"There are so many memorable moments on this trip" Edgar recalls. He lowered the window glass down. The man leaned back his arms, letting the wind blow his face.


"really?" ask wife.


"Yes. We have so many great memories together!" answer Edgar.


Lieve grabbed Edgar's right palm and grabbed him.


They both finally reached their destination. After parking the vehicle near the location, the two immediately got off the car.


Edgar rushed down ahead to open his wife's door.


"Please princess," she continued.


Edgar's wife smiled at his behavior.


They then joined hands and walked down the street together.


"You want us to continue to a place that we haven't been able to visit yet?" ask Edgar to open the conversation.


"No. We have to make a reservation first, it's almost afternoon. We have to spend the night around here, we can go there in the morning. I think it's gonna be exhausting. I just want to relax."


Edgar embraces his wife's affectionate, "Whatever the princess wants," his god again.


Lieve pinched the small waist of Edgar. The man could only grimace holding back the amused mixed pain.


The wind blowing breezy makes the leaves in the trees waving like a dancing tub. Carries a distinctive aroma of moist and hot sea.


The two beads of the couple's eyes were spoiled by a clean stretch of white sand and the view of a fishing boat neatly arranged along the beach or in the middle of the ocean.


Lieve took a deep breath.


"Here we go, where Sofi and Vallena share love."


Edgar nodded.


His wife continued, "You wrote this place down in your story?"


"Yes" said Edgar briefly. The lens was still glued to the dazzling sparkle of sea water.


"You've changed the names, haven't you?" search the wife.


"Eh, um, already," Edgar lied.


Lieve breathed a sigh of relief.


The beach they visited for the second time is known as a place for fish auction and as a landing place for fishing boats. Therefore, visitors can buy fresh fish caught directly from the fishermen as souvenirs or eaten directly on the spot.


As Lieve was daydreaming about the stretch of sand and the beach, Edgar suddenly kissed him.


"Hey," elak Lieve was surprised, "later to be seen," he protested.


Edgar smirked seductively, "Let's go. People will understand my behavior because I'm bullish" he said.


His wife's lips pout, "Bulok."


"What's that?" Edgar's forehead frowned.


"Local boules!" lieve cried while giggling.


The two couples were sitting in a shady place shaded by trees. Remember the past and talk about what comes to mind.


"Aren't you the boss of what sitting on?" ask the wife.


Edgar nodded.


"As long as I'm with you, I'll never get bored, Lieve" she said.


Lieve chuckled, "Baby, you're getting bitter!"


"That's a big part of a bitch, if I'm a hundred percent honest. Just like you I was always happy innate," Edgar said with a smile.


Lieve shook her head, "My God, your mouth is now really sweet!" she glanced at her husband and laughed, "i lapaaar .." whining.


The look on Edgar's face changed, letting him think hard.


"Who said I won't eat until tomorrow morning .." - his lips turned red, as if mimicking his wife's way of speaking.


"That's you ...!" Lieve dabbled.


Edgar quickly embraced his wife's affectionate, "Okay, what do you want to eat? Want to eat fish? Do I need to rent a fishing boat and catch some fresh fish for you, Lieverd?"


Edgar looked up at his manyun wife. According to him, the face of the woman is more beautiful when sulking. Make Edgar eager to******* plum lips belong to his wife.


"Then let's eat grilled fish there," Edgar raised his chin to point at one of the seafood eateries in front of them.


"Okay," said Lieve.


"Kiss first," Edgar's petulant.


Lieve again pinched the small waist of her husband.


...***...


"Sir, two grilled fish, yes!" Edgar ordered food.


"Okay, Mister!" sahut the seller.


Lieve cheered a smile. Wherever her husband went, she was always called 'mister', as was her now better known self as 'Lieve'.


The couple then sat together. Edgar looked at his wife's face with a loving look.


"What the hell, you?" Lieve looked down misbehaved, her cheeks met with pink.


"Masa' can't husband see his wife? Especially if you have a wife as beautiful as this," replied Edgar.


"Yes, I can, but I'm embarrassed, Ed."


"I like that you're so embarrassed" Edgar said. He leaned in to whisper in Lieve's ear, "getting me excited, wanting to devour you in bed."


Lieve glanced at Edgar while squinting her eyes, "Baby ..." he muttered.


While waiting for their order to be delivered, the two returned to talk and chat with each other.


"By the way, soon I will have to extend ITAS¹," Edgar explained.


Lieve listened carefully.


Edgar again continued, "I think I will only extend it for 2 times" he said.


"ITAS Provisions will be the entire Stay Permit in the Territory of Indonesia no more than six years. Is your masud you'll only extend it twice? You mean, after four years, you'll settle in your country? And don't come back here?" edgar's wife looked at her husband with a rage.


"No. My point is that after five years I'll change my nationality to WNI."


Lieve's eyes widened.


The woman nodded, "What-what?" tanyakanya.


Edgar smiled a smile.


"Yup" he answered briefly.


Lieve's lips gaped in disbelief.


"Are you serious?" ask again.


"Whatever you're related to is always serious, Lieverd. For a WNA like me, at least 5 years of living here then I can change my nationality. Actually, I've been here over 5 years. You know that ..." Edgar raised an eyebrow, "but it was illegal for me to be using someone else's identity" he whispered with a grin.


"I mean, what's your job there? You sure, Ed?" Lieve still can't believe it.


"For a God sake, Lieverd. I seriously. I'm certain. What do you mean by my work as a writer? I can work on it from here. And again, you forgot that I had a lot of savings, huh? Not to mention my mother's business just yet. Not working, your husband's rich, '" Edgar put on a stupefied face.


Lieve did not flinch at the husband's jokes. She still did not expect, her husband would change his nationality for her sake.


Lieve's eyes started to fog. Heart's moved.


"I don't know what to say" his voice began to tremble.


"Hey-hey, why is she sad? You should laugh because you're happy, dong!" edgar Protest.


"I'm not sad, it's just that I'm happy" Lieve pleaded. A single tear almost spilled down his cheek.


"But why you're crying, Lieve?" Edgar hurriedly wiped his wife's cheek with a tissue.


"It's called a new tear, Ed!"


Shortly after, someone approached to deliver their order. Spreading all the talk filled with romantic joy.
