"Sister said, monday tomorrow the bandage on my face can be removed. The wound has dried and healed completely. Just .... " Alea hung up her sentence.
Ravka begins to understand what makes her girl moody.
"just anyone?" Ravka doesn't seem to understand his wife's anger. Ravka just wanted Alea to say what was in her heart without fear and hesitation.
"It's possible that the wound is still scarred. This wound must have taken some time to heal completely. It might also leave a faint trace" Alea said later.
"How many times should I say Alea. I don't care about that wound at all. To me you are perfect."
"But not necessarily your friends will think the same, Mas. I just don't want you to be humiliated because of my presence."
"I am horrified Al. The attitude of others depends on ourselves. If we value ourselves, others will be reluctant to underestimate us. Conversely, if we ourselves are not self-respecting, others will be happy to make us their moons" said Ravka firmly.
He was well aware of Alea's weakness that could never be confident. The girl always hid behind her weakness. Unaware of the potential he has.
"For me, you're the perfect woman. Not only is physical perfection inherent in you, but it also sticks to your heart, as well as your way of thinking. I'm proud to have a wife like you. So from now on never lower your gaze before others. Keep your head up and don't care what other people think" Ravka continued to strengthen Alea's heart.
Alea was still silent. Letting the word series thrown by Ravka seep into the heart. Although he always tried to do everything wholeheartedly and as much as he could, still a sense of insecurity always overflowing. He grew up without accompanying parents, even uncles and aunts as the place to depend always blasphemy and berating. Leaving deep-rooted bitterness in the depths of the heart.
"Come here" cried Ravka as she raised her hand for Alea to approach her.
Alea followed the husband's orders. Raise his body to lean on the chest of Ravka field while memeganh blanket wrapped. Ravka wrapped both hands around his wife's body while putting her chin on Alea's head.
"Now just say it, what else is bothering you?" hiss Ravka
"I'm not used to hanging out with jetsets. I barely even know how to behave among those people. Your friends invited there must be part of the jetset like your family, Mas. To be honest, even in this house I still sometimes feel like a hick village girl" Alea explained with a pushy look.
Ravka sighed realizing that it was not only her attitude that had made Alea depressed all along. Ravka tilted her head kissing Alea's cheek while tightening her embrace.
"It's enough to be yourself, baby. Because that's what I like about you. Your determination as hard as steel, wrapped in softness of heart like silk, made me crazy. I don't need a perfect woman to show off."
Ravka's words warmed Alea's heart. He turned his body towards Ravka and returned his embrace with all his heart.
"Thank you for all your understanding."
"That means we're going next week, right?"
Alea nodded in the arms of the husband. "But can I ask you something?" asked Alea doubtfully.
"Of course, Al. Tell me what you want. I will try to meet all your needs" Ravka said earnestly.
"I heard Sandra will be using Lifestyle Concierge during her prom night. Tiara also told me that she used their services at her graduation party, "Aela paused her speech before she conveyed what was on her mind. "May I use their services as well?"
"What do you need their services for? Have you changed your mind about our wedding reception? Do you want to have a memorable and unforgettable reception? If that's what you want, then I'm very willing to realize your dream." Ravka stroked Alea's wavy black hair that felt soft in the hand.
"It's not so, Mom. Tiara said Sandra, M&E who used to serve the Dinata family was professional and reliable," said Alea mentioned an agency that became a premium service provider Lifestyle Concierge for more than fifty-one thousand Indonesians who are included in more than six million jetset in Asia.
"Our request is not really strange. It's just that I'm embarrassed to have to take a general class."
"See class? What do you want to learn?"
"Ethics and personality. Including that puzzling table manner," Alea replied as she bit her lip.
"Why did you learn such things? All this time you have a good attitude, Al. Why do you have to mess around with such petty things?" Ravka pulled Alea's body in order to look at her face carefully.
"At least I wasn't awkward when I met your friends, Mas. I just don't want to look stupid just because of small, trivial things" Alea said in seriousness. "If I've learned it, I can put myself in front of your colleagues. I don't want to embarrass you because of my undue attitude, just because I don't know" Alea continued with confidence.
Ravka widened the smile that adorned her face. He did not expect his little wife to think that far. Of course Ravka was happy, because what Alea did was nothing but to stand up to her. He kissed the girl's forehead as an expression of his gratitude to have a wife like Alea. Smart women who always thirst for knowledge and self-development. Trying to be someone worthy and proud of as a wife.
"If it makes you comfortable then just do it. I will definitely support whatever your decision is as long as it is good for you. As long as you promise, all of that doesn't bother you. I'd rather have a happy wife than a perfect wife but her life is stressful."
"I promise I won't have any trouble with any of this. Besides do you know that Revi, Mama's personal stylish fashion once said the style I wear is not classy," said Alea while pursing her lips. "Al results after I read it all out with him, almost all my collection of clothes, bags and shoes changed with him."
Ravka simply muttered in response to Alea's chattering. He remembered how his wife looked upset that almost a full week Revi had come to his house, to change all of his closet collection. Alea also did not escape from the wide food until he had to follow all the instructions of Revi to support the appearance of the girl.
"Revi woke me up, Mas. If what I marry is not a man. So as your wife, I also have to take care of your prestige and good name. I don't want to give anyone a chance to gossip about me. Even though I know it I can't avoid. But at least I've tried to do the best I can" Alea added.
"You can do whatever you want as long as it's not for flirting with other men" Ravka said.
"Why am I flirting with another man? while I already have the perfect man who is willing to fulfill all my desires," Alea replied with a wide grin.
Alea's smile looked so adorable to Ravka. Immediately frowned their lips belong to a sweet girl who now always colors her days. Lips that make the man never tired to soak the taste when it blends with his lips.
"Mas, it looks like it's late at night. If we don't sleep now, we will definitely look like zombies due to lack of sleep" Alea said gasping for breath after Ravka freed her lips.
"I think you're right this time. I don't want us to wake up tomorrow. I haven't enjoyed the morning air in a long time. Tomorrow we run in the morning together. I ran away in the morning" said Ravka while releasing a hug that wrapped Alea's body.
"I haven't breathed the morning air in a long time either" Alea said, laying her head on the pillow.
However, suddenly the girl raised her head again. He approached Ravka until their faces were not far apart and landed his lips on Ravka's cheeks.
"I'm so happy tonight. Being able to talk to you this relaxed way is fun" Alea said after giving a kiss on Ravka's cheek.
"We can do it every day. You can tell me your heart at any time. Here or wherever you want."
"Like this is okay, too, Mom. Besides, I heard that pillow talk can strengthen the relationship between husband and wife," Alea said back to lay her head on the pillow.
"Pillow talk?! There's-there," Ravka's sweet-sounding snick in Alea's ear.
Ravka again pulled Alea into a hug then landed her lips on Alea's top of the head before completely closing her eyes.
