"Assalamualaikum" said Arham opened the door of his parents' house.
"Wa'alaikumusalam, well grandchildren grandmother has arrived apparently. Here granny is carrying, it's getting heavier" said Nesti take over Ara from Dara.
"Ma, Arham take Dara to the room for a second. Dara is exhausted" said Arham. Hesti nodded his head in agreement.
"Dayok" Arham asked Dara, Dara nodded and followed Arham's steps.
Dara's steps stopped when he passed a man he knew, Dara immediately lowered her head and walked back to follow Arham.
"Sleep, let Ara with mom. Don't be afraid, I'll sleep on the couch" Arham said.
"I came out first" said Arham, but Dara held Arham's arm.
"Who was that?" ask Dara.
"Ilham, my sister" said Arham staring at Dara's shocked face, Dara looks riled up.
"What's wrong?" ask Arham.
"Ti..no" said Dara immediately release Arham's hand.
"Yes, take a break" said Arham who went straight out of the room, while Dara was still silently staring at something.
"How can he be Arham's brother?" said Dara sitting on the bed. Dara nibbled her lips, still remembering that Ilham always found himself on campus.
"What do you think of Dara, Astagfirullahal'azim" said Dara sighing in anger. Dara got up from her seat and walked towards the bathroom to fetch some ablution water.
After finishing praying Isya, Dara came out of the room because her sleepiness had disappeared.
"Well, don't you sleep?" hesti asked when he saw Dara about to join.
"After Dara's prayer was no longer sleepy, so Dara joined in" said Dara sitting next to Arham.
"How's papa doing?" ask Dara to Gilang.
"Lumayan improved, let alone seeing papa's grandchildren getting bigger" said Gilang kissed Ara with anxiety, Dara who heard it immediately smiled. Then Ilham came and joined soon, and he sat down next to Gilang. Ilham pinched slowly Ara's cheek, it did not escape from Dara's opponent. Arham who was aware of it immediately embraced Dara's waist, Dara was surprised and almost shouted.
"What did you do?" whispered Dara stared fixedly at Arham.
"Your husband is here, not there" Arham said without seeing Dara, frowning confused by Arham's words.
"Don't look at another man when I'm next to you" Arham said with a flat face. Dara who saw it was not afraid, instead she laughed because she thought Arham's face was very funny. Everyone immediately looked at Dara confusedly, Dara who just realized it immediately fell silent.
"Sorry" said Dara lowering her head.
"No need to apologize, we are happy to see you laughing happily like that" said Gilang, Dara who heard it immediately looked at Gilang and smiled.
"Bah, ma... There are those who want Ilham to convey" said Ilham who began to talk.
"What's wrong?" tanya Gilang looked at her youngest son.
"Tomorrow Ilham will propose to someone, Ilham hope papah and mama agree" said Ilham looked at his parents. Dara and Arham were very surprised by the revelation of Inspiration.
"Mama didn't hear wrong?" ask Hesti.
"No Ma, Ilham wanted to directly propose to the woman because Ilham did not want others to precede Ilham" said Ilham, Arham who heard it a little insinuated.
"Good, my mom agreed. Papa how?" said Hesti so excited.
"You sure? You're still in college and not working, what are you gonna give your wife?" ask Gilang who wants to know the seriousness of Inspiration.
"Ilham knows the reward if Ilham does not have anything. But Ilham will try to meet the needs of Ilham's wife, Ilham has made a small cafe without his knowledge. Sorry reward, Ilham used the money papa papa gave for Ilham pocket money" said Ilham who managed to make everyone surprised.
"Good reward, tomorrow night prepare yourself" said Arham staring at Ilham, Ilham smiled and nodded his head.
"Who's the girl's name?" ask Hesti so curious.
"Mama will know later, let it be a surprise" Ilham said.
"Alright, it means you have to be patient" said Nesti in a disappointed tone.
"Sabar Ma, our son will not disappoint us" said Gilang who was greeted with laughter by everyone. Then they were swept away in small talk that was occasionally interrupted by jokes and laughter.

Arham opened the long untouched closet. He picked up a blanket and walked to the sofa. Dara who had just finished putting Ara to sleep was staring at Arham's movements.
"Sleep, it's night" said Arham lay his body on the sofa, Dara did not answer Arham's remarks. He sat at the end of the bed looking at Arham who was closing his eyes. Dara pinched her lips because she felt guilty for Arham, Dara very much wanted to tell Arham to sleep on the bed. But Dara's courage did not appear at all, he still kept silent staring at Arham who was asleep on the sofa.
'What kind of wife am I letting my husband sleep on a tight sofa' Dara's inner.
After a long thought, Dara finally decided to tell Arham to sleep with him. Dara walked slowly towards the sleeping Arham. Shaking his hand outstretched to wake Arham.
"P... Sir" call Dara to step on Arham's arm, the surprised Arham opens his eyes immediately.
"Sleep there, Dara's fine. It's very narrow" Dara said nervously. Arham stared intensely at Dara, then he woke up from his sleep.
"Alright" said Arham immediately got up and walked to the bed. Arham broke his body because he was very tired. Dara could only bite her lips, she walked to the bed and slept next to the empty Arham. Dara's heart raced so fast that it caused a little pain. A moan just came out of his lips. It did not escape the hearing of Arham, Arham who had closed his eyes now woke up again.
"What's wrong?" ask Arham.
"Ti.none, just akhh" Dara's speech was cut because her heartbeat was getting faster, Dara poked her chest that felt tight.
"Do you have any medicine?" asked Arham, Dara nodded. Arham got up and opened Dara's bag.
"Drink" said Arham to help Dara wake up.
"But what if Ara wakes up and is thirsty?" dara asked with a slightly decapitated breath.
"We'll make milk for her, drink it" Arham said, giving Dara medicine and drinking water.
"Bismil was bornrahmanirrahim" said Dara who immediately took his medicine with great difficulty.
"Sleep, you're so tired of taking care of Ara all day" Arham said, Dara nods and immediately settles down. But Dara looks uncomfortable with her sleeping position because her heart is racing again.
"Tudur here, this is higher" said Arham told Dara to sleep on his chest. Dara looked at Arham, but she soon obeyed Arham. Dara leaned her head against Arham's chest, hesitatingly, but when her head touched Arham's chest she felt very comfortable. Dara could hear Arham's heartbeat sound so clear, but it made Dara sleepy and eventually fell asleep.
"Good night" said Arham kissed Dara's head, then he closed his eyes and entered the dream.
