Dusk (And Taste)
Chapter 107

Reyhan circulated the view to all corners of the room with that pure white feel. Do not forget the smell of drugs that are everywhere. Trapped in the room for a week makes Reyhan feel bored. Make him miss the fresh and free air out there.

Reyhan's gaze was fixed on the hijab-wearing girl who was asleep in a sitting position in front of him. A smooth snoring with regular breaths in his mind signifies the tiredness he feels.

Reyhan gently stroked the top of the head that he placed on two neatly folded hands. “Honey,” call Reyhan gently.

It didn't take Reyhan to call her over and over until she woke up from her deep sleep. He opened his eyes and looked at Reyhan who was smiling at him.

“Available ?” tanyanya still with a distinctive hoarse voice wake up.

“I never sleep, Al,” Reyhan replied without stripping off her sweet smile.

“Then ?”

“I only noticed my wife's beautiful and peaceful face while asleep.”

His cheeks immediately felt hot. It was clearly already imprinted in a blushing red color on his cheeks.

“Aleea ?”

He looked at the man who had just called his name. “Why ?”

“I'm bored in the room. Can you come out for a minute?”

“But, the condition of the sister has not allowed to exit. I'm sure for sure the doctor won't allow it either.”

“Just a minute, Al. In the Hospital park,” pinta Reyhan with a clear facial expression.

He took a long breath. “Good. But, just for a second. Because, I don't want anything bad to happen to brother.”

“Iya, Darling. I'll make sure everything's okay.”

“I believe. Because, I know that my husband is a strong man,” he said gently and gave it to Reyhan.

“I'm strong because of you.”

Smile expands. His hands tightly clasped Reyhan's hands. “Authorize. And we'll spend time together.”

Reyhan nodded. “We honeymoon, Darling.”

“As far as my husband is concerned,” reply.

He helps Reyhan get up and sit in a wheelchair. Standing in the back and pushing Reyhan's wheelchair down the corridor of the Hospital. Occasionally she threw jokes to make her husband laugh freely even though he was still in a weak condition.

“Al, I want to sit under that big tree,”, Reyhan said, pointing to a large, shady tree in the hospital garden.

She pushed Reyhan's wheelchair slowly towards her husband's index finger.

“Ra!” call someone suddenly and successfully stop his steps. He turned towards the source of the voice and found Mikayla walking towards him. His smile was wide as his friend waved his hand. Before long, someone appeared behind Mikayla with a timid smile and scratched her eyebrows.

“Abang ?” his whisper could still be heard clearly in Reyhan's ears.

“There's Brother, Darling ? Where ?” reyhan asked with his head up.

“Sedang walked here. Together with Mikayla,” she replied with a tone of voice holding back laughter.

Reyhan's eyes were perfectly rounded hearing his wife's answer. “Hah ? Mikayla ?”

He just nodded. In fact, it was clear that Reyhan could not see that nod.

At Bara who was already near him he smiled jail. “Abang ?” call him in a mocking tone and roll one eye.

“What ?” Bara looked at him with her eyebrows linked.

“Kak Reyhan why ?” great-grandson Mikayla shifted the topic. Because, he knows very well the attitude and behavior of his best friend's jail.

Reyhan raised his head and only replied with a faint smile. She gently stroked her husband's hair that was not neatly combed.

It was as if he knew how Reyhan would feel if asked such a question. He always tried to give strength from his treatment.

“Kak Reyhan needs fresh air. I'd like to accompany him for a while in the hospital garden. Do you want to join ?” ask her to Mikayla.

“No. I'll go straight home. Mom and Dad are waiting for me.”

“And wait for my brother also ?” goda.

Mikayla looked at Bara who was already bowed in shame.

“Good. I'll go there first. Brother be careful on the road when carrying girls people,” he said half-jokingly then passed leaving two lovebirds who will soon marry.

He pushed the wheelchair Reyhan occupied. Took him under a tree in the garden of the Hospital in question.

“Honey,” call Reyhan slowly.

“Hmm.”

“Come! Sitting in front of me.”

He stepped up and squatted down in front of Reyhan. Looking into my eyes and the pale face of her husband. His heart felt sliced at the condition of the man who was once strong and always strong. His eyes began to fade. A sign there is a puddle that has been perfectly formed on her beautiful eyelids.

“Why grieve like that?” reyhan asked and cupped his wife's pretty face with both hands still shaking.

Tears that were initially only inundated instantly burst through the limits of his defense. The issue is getting stronger. His hand touched Reyhan's trembling hand.

“I look pathetic, yes, Al ?” Reyhan laughed heartily. With the rest of his energy he wiped away the tears that ran down the cheek of the girl before him.

“And you are my strength.”

Her crying broke instantly. He drowned his face at Reyhan's feet.

“Don't cry like that, Aleea.”

“Again healed,” he said interrupted his stuffing.

Once again Reyhan laughed heartily. “You forgot, yes, Al. I will never recover from this disease.”

He lifted his head. “Why does sister talk like that?”

“You see for yourself. The more days my condition gets worse. How can I think of healing ?”

“Why don't you take the advice of Dharma Doctor to undergo o.”

“Operation ?” cut Reyhan fast. “Do not make jokes again, Al.”

Reyhan let out a long breath. “I don't want to wish anything more on the advice of the Dharma Doctor. Besides, that doesn't guarantee me a full recovery. It could have been a failed operation and I died.”

He shook fast. “No. Brother will definitely recover.”

“Already, Al. I want to enjoy this afternoon with you in peace. Not by thinking heavy like that.” Reyhan rested his body on the back of a wheelchair.

“Alright,” pass. She no longer wanted to argue and add to her husband's burden. He wiped his tears and stood up.

“Skiness improving. I promise to always be by your side. Walking together wading through time and circumstance.” He landed a brief kiss on Reyhan's dry and pale lips. Hugging the limp body of her husband.

“Thanks for joining this frail sick man, Al.”

He put his index finger on Reyhan's lips. “Ssttt! I told you already. Big brother is a strong man.”

Reyhan smiled at her words. Reyhan knew that the words that escaped those tiny and rannum lips were only to encourage him. Provide strength so as not to feel weak and psymis.

“Help me to sit in that long chair, Al,” pinta Reyhan while pointing at the long chair not far from his place.

He quickly helped Reyhan stand up and move from a wheelchair to a long chair that was already available in the hospital garden. He also helped Reyhan lean his body on the wooden backrest of the chair.

“Honey,” call Reyhan in small voice.

He brought his face closer to Reyhan. “Yes, my husband,” he replied with a sweet smile framing his beautiful face.

“You are beautiful,” goda Reyhan.

“I know. Brother has said that to me too often.”

“But, that's not what I really want to say.”

Alinya. “Then ?”

“I want to say that I love you.”

Smile expands. “I love you too.”

“There are other things as well that I want to say.”

“Tell me what you want to say. My ears are willingly listening.”

Reyhan let out a long breath. Move his body slowly and sit up straight. “See that skyline.”

He followed Reyhan's direction.

“High brings me back to the time when I often invite you to enjoy dusk on the lake. And I miss that.”

Stare sparkles. The crescent moon immediately rose in its roar. “Stand!” his orders after he first stood up.

“You're mocking me, Al ? You know I'm not strong enough to stand. Sitting too long I'm not strong. Even now you rule me for granted,” said Reyhan feigning anger with both hands that he folded in front of the chest.

“No, my dear,” reply softly. “I'll help you.”

“If I fall later. How ?”

“Do not worry. Brother will fall in my arms.”

“You're seducing me ?”

He shook. “Of course not. I'm talking seriously.”

Reyhan smiled at his wife's words laden with earnestness. “Good.”

He led Reyhan to stand up slowly. Because, his body is too small compared to Reyhan's body, he was so trying to remove all his energy that Reyhan stood perfectly even though his legs still seemed to shake.

“Do not worry. Brother will not fall,” he said while hugging strongly and holding Reyhan's weight.

“Thank you, my wife.”

He simply replied with a nod and a sweet smile. “Now enjoy dusk this time. It's okay at different places.”

“Originally with you,” connect Reyhan quickly.

The two smiled and sank to the orange charm at the horizon.
