The journey 14

It turned out that Zia's reaction was beyond Arvan's expectations. Arvan thought Zia would refuse and choose to stay temporarily in her family home. But Zia was smiling. Not a smile, but a sincere smile.

"So much better." Answer Zia.

"But maybe the rented house will not be as big as Mother's Father's house. And if the house credit brother also will not be as luxurious as our family home." Arvan said

"We're just two brothers, we don't need a big house yet.  Unless you want us to sleep in a different room we need a lot of rooms" replied Zia origin. While still cleaning the goods with Arvan.

"Dare to tease my brother now" said Arvan.

"Not tempting. Don't we? Brother is concerned that later the house will not be large. If the house is not luxurious. The problem is if our house will not be large and not luxurious? Like our tree just planted. It is not possible to bear fruit immediately. Yes, we enjoy it. Let's have a story later."

"Important we do not forget to always pray and try" said Zia again. Arvan was amazed by Zia's words. But where Arvan made his wife difficult. He took Zia from his parents, yes after he took, the son of people want him to bring hard. Arvan who is considered a high-ego man certainly does not want it to happen. At least Arvan should be able to treat Zia as where Zia was treated in her family. Even if Arvan has not been able to be like a father who spoils his daughter. At least Arvan can still try to do his best and not hurt him.

"Pinter really answered" said Arvan, rubbing Zia's head.

At 10, Zia and Arvan leave the hotel and head to their mother and father's house.  On the way there was only the sound of the prayer from the dvd in the car.  The bored and hungry Arvan finally started the conversation.

"Sir." He said while looking slightly towards Zia.

"Yes." Yeah." Zia answered while looking at Arvan.

"Well hungry we eat first. Adek what do you want to eat? And where?" ask arvan

"So it's up to brother." Answer zia

"No answer is up. Tell me where." asked Arvan again. Is that a girl, huh? His sister, his wife why if asked to eat where the answer would be up to. But later if taken to one place, say, "Come here, I won't eat this anymore."

"If you're responsible for eating junk food you can?" answer Zia.

"No." answered Arvan.

"Jaudah the money is up to Brother Adek to come along. Adek's not too hungry yet."

"Indeed?" ask Arvan again. Zia nodded.

"But don't be like Vina? Say it's up to you but it's right to be taken to one protest place."

"Yes will not protest." replied Zia.

"Yes, yeah."

Zia was silent no longer responding to Arvan's words. How many times did Zia have to answer.

"It's a shame to be quiet." said Arvan gently.

Zia did not flinch, just that her lips had been weaved signifying she was already upset.

"haha okay, sorry, brother. Come down this has arrived at a seafood restaurant that is often brother datengin" said Arvan then release his seatbelt and get out of his car.

Zia follows Arvan down from the car.  Without hesitation Arvan immediately led Zia's hand and entered.

Arvan ordered some menus that became his favorite. Like, crabs, lobsters, shrimp. Arvan loves seafood. He often gets confused when dealing with the sea creatures that are delicious inhabitants.

Just look now in front of them there are many menus presented.

"Did you like seafood, huh?"

"Heem. Can you make this menu?" arvan asked quietly, afraid that Zia would be offended. Zia smiled.

"If it's okay, we can buy" Arvan said. "Eating too much seafood is also not good. Cholesterol." Arvan continued.

"Adek can do it. But do not know it will be as good as now you eat or not" said Zia.

"Seriously can?"

"Yes Brother."

"So more dear" said Arvan kissing Zia's hand with lips full of spices.

"Jorok." rebuked Zia. Arvan is just a whimper.

After eating they went back home.  They also ordered some food for people at home. 

When we got home, the house was quiet.  There's only Alvin who happens to be no college hours he's playing the latest PS.

"Assalamualaikum Vin's. Didn't you come home?" arvan asked Alvin.

"wa'alaikumsalam uh brother and sister hehe sorry this again exciting. Vina lecture, Dad cooperation, Mother again do not know where Alvin forgot." replied Alvin before being asked because he did not want his PS show disturbed.

"Was Vin's new PS? Asik nih here brother wants to maen too." Arvan said instead cool to play PS with Alvin and ignore Zia.

"Oh yes dear you just rest, Brother's room on the second floor next to the stairs" said Arvan without looking at Zia and still focus on her PS.

Before going to Zia's room first put the food she brought to the refrigerator. Say if stale, the problem of seafood is not classified as cheap food. Didn't want to ask Arvan did find his own kitchen location.

Zia pushed herself the suitcase that contained her and Arvan's stuff. Arvan, who accidentally sees Zia struggling up the stairs while carrying a large suitcase, leaves her PS for a moment and helps Zia.

"Why not ask for help if it's hard?" ask arvan

Zia was silent.  Arvan lifted his suitcase into the room.  After that he returned to play PS with Alvin. 

Zia is upset with Arvan, this is the first time Zia has come to Arvan's house, uh not the first time she has ever been before marriage, while taking care of marriage. But at that time Zia was just sitting in the living room, not going around where Zia knew the ins and outs of this house.  Now the condition of the house is quiet and Arvan instead ignored it because playing PS. 

Zia chose to take care of their goods. Finish cleaning things.  Already entered the dzuhur time, inevitably Zia had to call Arvan for prayer. The fear of praying is also forgotten like Zia is today. 

"Abang Arvan, Alvin is already dzuhur. Pray first." said Zia.

"Yes for a moment dear." replied Arvan not turning his head at all.

See if you are told to answer later.

"Yes, brother for a moment." replied Alvin just like Arvan.

"Well, Vin... Ah don't cheat dong.." said Arvan still cool himself.

"Idih lost and lost. Even cheating."

"Jaudah I pray by myself! bang." said Zia as she walked away from the brothers.

After losing Arvan immediately ran to his room to see Zia was ready with her face to pray by herself.

Finish praying as usual kiss hands and kiss forehead. After that Arvan returned to the bottom playing PS with Alvin. Increasing already the annoyance of Zia. Zia chose to stay in the room, contacted her mother-in-law, confirmed her whereabouts and told her that she and Arvan were home and that her mother-in-law did not need to buy food.

At 16:00 Vina came home from college with her mother who said Alvin did not know where to go.  Seeing that there was Arvan, Vina went straight to Arvan's room and brought Zia to his room.  They were busy chatting the boredom of Zia who had been alone a little less, but her irritation to Arvan still remained.

Mother who saw Arvan asik play PS since earlier began to suspect if the child ignored his wife.

"Abang, Zia where's the bang?" ask Aliya's mother.

"There's in mom's room." replied the arvan as necessary.

"What's he for?  From that room?" ask mom fishing.

"Don't know bu Abang from here finished praying dzuhur and ashat also brother directly down." Reply Arvan without sin.

Mom started to grow angry, it turned out that her guess was right. Both of his sons are so if they have played PS can forget everything.

"Allahu Arvan, Zia was the first one here yet to know what this house is about. At home too, there was no one. Are you Zia herself? Just got married a day see the new PS, the wife has been ignored. Your inget has other responsibilities now Arvan" said mother reprimanding Arvan.

Deg said his mother made him aware. He could have ignored his wife just because of PS. Without a word the arvan ran to the room, unfortunately Arvan did not find his wife in the room.

"You're Alvin too. Adults are still happy to play PS. Find a real soul mate."

"No horror ma'am, Alvinnya again bobo hehe." replied Alvin. The mother replied with a punch using a sofa cushion.

Arvan doesn't know if Vina's home. He came down to ask his mother.

"Where did you see Zia? There's nothing in the room?" asked Arvan confused

"Don't know." Answer mother.

"Vina's home yet?" ask Arvan again

"Just look at her room" said the mother without looking at Arvan.

Arvan went back upstairs to check on Vina's room. He tried to open the door, the door was locked meaning Vina was home.  And his wife must be with Vina.

Tok tok tok tok

"Vina this Brother. Open the door you want to take my brother's wife" said Arvan, knocking on the door.

"But bang I borrowed first anyway also brother again cool to play PS why hopefully he lost huh?" vina said without opening the door.

"Vina open first. PS entitles again now to Brother" said Arvan.

"That's the reason." Answer Vina.

"Vin come on open it first." Persuade Arvan.

"No. Shut up ah, bother me."

But finally Vina opened the door and Arvan came in. Let his wife be there with Vina. Arvan approached Zia who was sitting cross-legged on Vina's bed.

"Here come with Brother" he said as he pulled Zia's hand slowly. Zia only complied but was still in her silent mode.

"Ah mentang-about husband was just ignored now pulled-pull." chirped Vina

Arvan did not respond, he continued to lead Zia to his room. They sit on the couch in the room.

"Anything want to take a shower? Just give me the baby" Zia said, avoiding Arvan. But Arvan held her wrist.

"Sorry brother" said Arvan as he looked at Zia and slightly pulled his hand to get Zia to sit back.

"For?" ask Zia.

"Hhh, ignore you since you got to this house, because you prefer to play ps." Arvan exhaled before replying.

"Oh. This is maghrib. Do you want to take a shower first or do I shower first?" zia asked avert arvan's question. Realizing the question has not been answered Arvan and diverted Arvan began jailing to tempt Zia.

"When together what? Save time." replied Arvan casually.

"No." said Zia quickly as she stood up but dear Arvan returned to dancing.

"Please don't turn it away.  Sorry brother, wrong brother, brother tau first new adek here. But brother instead of nemenin adek dampingin adek but even cool the same PS brother. Sorry I promise not again." Arvan said seriously

Zia took a breath

"What the hell is it. I hope nothing else happens that I've been ignored because of something else." Zia replied while exhaling softly.

"The promise will not be" said arvan sure

"Not much promise. Take a quick shower." Zia's orders to Arvan.

"If that's what my brother tried. Not taking a shower together?" Arvan

"No." Zia said firmly.

"Well, " said Arvan, walking to get a towel in the closet and to the bathroom.

Zia prepared Arvan's clothes. After that, he went down to meet his mother-in-law, because he had not met. Zia saw her mother-in-law in the kitchen.

"Eh Zi's. What's up?" mother asked when she saw Zia approaching her.

"What other mother? Zia help ya." said Zia offering. 

"Don't you just make tea for me. Where's arvan? " said mom and asked Arvan.

"Abang Arvan is taking a bath again" Zia replied.

"I'm sorry Arvan ignored you. Mother's two sons really like to forget the time when playing games." said the mother explained.

"Eh yes, I'm fine" said Zia, grinning.
