Husband Who (But) Considered

Husband Who (But) Considered
Eps 142s


Axel was standing by the window of his study. He was facing outside but his shadow was fixed on a name. The name of someone who has always been in his heart. Who else if not Gita.


Axel is grateful. Slowly his relationship with the Gita made little progress. Although very little, the most important thing is that there is a change. Although Gita's attitude impressed still cold and flat towards him, but he never refused anything given by Axel.


As with every return home from work and he picks her up, Axel always gives her a bar of chocolate. Axel knew that since long ago, since his relationship with the Gita was still fine, the woman always asked him for chocolate when meeting or on a walk. And a while ago, Axel tried to give his wife a chocolate bar when he picked her up. And it turns out that Gita accepted it.


“But why Inez at that time said that Gita's mental state is not good.” Mumbled wailing.


Axel recalled his meeting with Inez the other day. After a while ago Inez had asked Axel no phone, and only a few days ago Inez had time to meet him.


Inez recounts the circumstances of Gita when he met first. Inez tells all about Gita's changing attitude. His emotions overflowed while listening to a sentence that he thought was very sensitive.


“I'm afraid Gita's lack of confidence will have an impact on her mentality, Xel. Moreover, he always felt inferior.” Inez said at the time.


Axel did not necessarily believe Inez's words. He's just trying to make Gita comfortable with him. It doesn't take a short time. And now he feels the results.


Tok tok tok tok


The sound of knocking on the door from the outside ended Axel's daydream. Then he walked up to his chair and the door opened before he told the man to come in.


“Papa? Can Axel help?” tanyakanya. Felix is coming.


“Papa just wants to say something. Tomorrow, come to Mr. James' company birthday. Papa can not attend because your Mama asked to be accompanied to go to her friend's event.” Felix.


“You can invite Gita.” Felix.


“Good, Pa. later Axel will convey to Gita.” Answer Axel.

Time has shown the hours of returning home from work. As usual, Axel will pick up his wife. He had also prepared a bar of chocolate to welcome Gita home.


“Nih!” Axel gives it to Gita, after the woman gets into the car.


“Thank you. There should be no need to bother like this every day.” Gita. Even the sentence he often said after receiving chocolate from Axel.


“If you don't want to, just kumpulin. It can be sold again. That's pretty.” Axel tried to answer Gita's words with a joke.


“Indeed can be so?” ask Gita seriously.


“Ya can. Precisely you will be able to profit a lot.” Axel replied with a faint smile.


The Gita did not answer and just chipped in annoyance. But that just makes Axel anxious. It was just that he had not dared to embrace her.


“We eat out yuk?” take Axel but Gita shakes her head.


Every day Axel tries to invite Gita to eat outside or just walk. But Gita always refused. I don't know what the reason is, but Axel didn't force it. Finally he prefers to buy food and take home.Gita did not come down from the car. From his attitude that has always been like that, Axel slightly trust Inez's remark that Gita lost her confidence. But Axel always tries to fix it in his own way.


Arriving at the apartment, both of them went straight to their respective rooms before doing dinner, but Axel first prepared it before he took a shower.


After the shower, Gita was already sitting on the dining chair. He saw the food dish that Axel had bought was neatly arranged. Finally, Gita only made two glasses of warm tea.


A while later, Axel had already walked out of his room. Her body looks so fresh. Even her hair still looks wet. And don't forget the smell of the perfume. Secretly the smell of perfume was well liked by Gita.


Axel rubbed his eyes many times when he had just seen Gita's thin smile. Is that true Gita. For a long time he had never seen that sweet smile. And just now, Gita again showed a smile that she had long missed.


“Why silent?” ask Gita.


“Ah, it's okay. Yes, let's eat!” axel said later.


After that, they both enjoyed their dinner. There was no conversation between the two. Only occasionally heard the sound of spoons and plates.


After dinner, Gita decided to relax in the living room. Followed by Axel. They are both every day like that, even though they are both busy with their gadgets.


“Gita, tomorrow Papa asked me to come to the birthday event of his business partner company. And Papa asked that you accompany me.” Axel said carefully. He was afraid that Gita would be angry if invited to come to an event.


“Ehm, should it be with me? can't come alone?” tanyakanya.


“Sounds could. But this is Papa's message. If you object, that's okay. Let me tell Papa.” later Axel.


“Do not! I'm not good with Papa. But I haven't been out for such an event in a long time. I-“ The answer is doubtful.


“Do not be afraid. I will not be far from you. Just chill. Maybe we won't be long. Just come and congratulate your business partner Papa.” Axel tried to convince. And finally Gita nodded.

That day also came. Axel was waiting for Gita who had not come out of his room since. He was worried about his wife. Is fine in there. Or Gita is trying to refuse not to go with her. But it's all just Axel's feelings, because at this time Gita has come out of his room.


“Sorry long wait.” Said Gita while bowing her head.


“Nothing.” Axel replied as his eyes scanned Gita's appearance, which he thought was very beautiful. With a dress that was in stark contrast to the skin of her body, it increasingly made her aura of beauty radiate clearly.


“Ya already, come on!” take Axel then.


A short while later, the two of them had already arrived at the hotel ballroom where the event was held. Many guests from the businessmen have arrived. And the atmosphere is very crowded. Gita suddenly felt bad air. Even cold sweat had washed over his body. He was eager to hold Axel's hand, yet not daring. Finally just holding the tip of Axel's shirt.


“If you want, you can hold my arm.” Tawar Axel's.


With courage, Gita holds Axel's arm. Even Axel felt a strong grip of Gita's hand.


“You okay? If it's uncomfortable, we go home just fine.” Axel was worried.


“Nothing. Yes, let's go in.” Answer Gita.
