Holy Marriage
Riled
Alan finally smiled as he saw Collin enter his room. Collin is not alone, he is with Angel. Alan had forgotten that his brother-in-law was already working at his company.
“How are the newlyweds doing?” Alan showed a cheerful expression as if he had no problem. And as always, Alan was always able to hide his problems in the presence of others until it was unreadable by his opponent. “Loh, you bring Kak Angel here?”
“Yes, he's my nganterin. He said all of you want to go to Daddy's office too. he also wants to see the office where I work he said.” Collin embraced Angel's shoulder and guided her to a seat on the sofa. “I want to tell you where to work jugake Angel. Let's be familiar with this place.”
Alan left his chair and followed him on the sofa. “Let me call OB tell make a drink.”
“Neventless. I just clash, kok,” said Angel. “Perfect. This building is perfect. You are lucky to be entrusted with this kind of company with God. May trust, yes!”
Alan nodded with a smile.
“O yes, how are you Anna?”
Alan suddenly riled to hear Anna's name called. But as usual, he was always able to hide what he felt in front of the other person.
“Anna good. At this hour he must be in college,” replied Alan as if there were no problems between him and Anna. He knew Anna was not okay. Anna must be upset. And he doesn't know how his wife feels now, after that attitude.
“Yes, greetings to Anna.” Angel turned to Collin and said, “Mas, I can't be long, I go first.”
“Let kuanterin get to the bottom.”
Collin rubbed Angel's head while throwing a smile.
“Assalamu’alaikum.” Angel kissed Collin's back.
“Wa’alaikumusalam.” Collin stood kissing his wife's forehead. He led Angel to the door. They were seen chatting very friendly and finally Collin left the room. It seemed he could not bear to let his wife go downstairs alone. Collin's attitude seemed very appreciative of the wife, polite and gentle. He also repeatedly told Angel to be careful. His affection emanated clearly from the look in his eyes. This is the manifestation of God's gift, He created compassion among men.
Alan was full of sight at that sight. There was a question in his mind, why couldn't he be like Collin?
All day, it had even been fourteen hours of Alan and Anna without communication. They usually chat with each other. Every minute asked each other the news, not infrequently video calls even though only an hour did not meet. But today, everything is different.
Alan looked at his phone. It was ten in the evening and he was still in the study after a long day of work. Anna has not contacted him yet. If yesterday Anna was busy chatting and contacted Alan when Alan was upset, remind Alan not to forget to pray, do not forget to eat breakfast and blah blah. But now Anna's silencing him. Is Anna really mad at him? Really, Alan did not want that situation to happen. Even Alan wants Anna to call him. Alan misses Anna very much.
But if he misses Anna, why doesn't he call first? Alan was too haughty, even facing the figure he loved though.
Alan already held the phone and stared at the contact named ‘My Wife’ to contact Anna, but was reluctant and chose to close the phone again. He didn't want to go home until Anna called him. Eventually he got tired of himself and packed up to go home.
