Finished all the talk, I happily went to cook in the kitchen while Kak Anta was spoiled and patiently waiting at the dinner table. A day full of dramatic touches, and really unexpected behind the disaster and fate suffered by Anta, there is a wisdom so great.
"Know special fry with clear spinach sauce ... "
I walked while carrying a large bowl of vegetable spinach soup, favorite Kak Anta. Then I brought another white plate containing fried tofu at his request.
He who was waiting, tried to get up from the chair to help but I could stand it. Then after that, I help pour rice along with side dishes and all kinds of bad t3teknya.
"Thank you." Said Sister Anta. He took his share of dinner then ate it voraciously.
"How does it feel, brother?" I asked him while holding my chin up on the dining table.
Upon hearing my question, Sister Anta stopped chewing and in the look in her eyes she was looking at me deeply, though at a glance I saw her putting a thin smile on her face. I tried to guess what he was going to say.
"Don't," he answered briefly, holding his thumb in front of me. "You are getting better at cooking, even simple foods from any material feels very good and delicious because you are smart to process it. It's great!"
Of course I'm proud! not infrequently he praised but I am sure that when it comes to cooking or other things that used to be my weakness, Sister Anta was always able to give me the confidence that really came from her heart. So that I can withdraw from the limitations.
"I'm done with dinner, thank you. Your cooking is so good and I really miss it, after some time you can just eat food from the outside." He said he started flirting.
"Food from the outside is much better, especially that from the resto restaurant." I said.
"No! wrong big. Food from the outside if eaten more than two or three times, we can be bored and grand. Eaten a million centuries will never be bored, especially if enjoyed together with family. Sedap---"
"Can! Brother wait here first, I'm gonna do the dishes for a second."
I left the dinner table carrying a pile of dirty dishes of mine and Sister Anta. I asked him to wait while watching television. Or just open your phone to see the news on social media.
Long night, after all the commotion that happened Kak Anta finally returned home and we were able to enjoy this time back, both of us. Sitting together on the porch at dusk, having dinner together at the dinner table, and now is when we're going to sleep together.
After I finished washing the dishes, I looked up at the top wall, I saw the clock already showing at 21:00 p.m. It was quite night for Kak Anta to rest, considering his health condition that must be maintained. I immediately helped her to go to her room.
"Have a good rest, brother, let me help you put on a blanket." I said, as soon as he got on the bed.
"Thank you Kania" he said, smiling. Then after that I got up and prepared to switch positions with him who slept on the sofa all this time.
"Where are you going?"
I looked up when he asked that.
"To the sofa---" I answered.
"For what?"
"Sleep. Sister Anta is sleeping in bed. So now that we're switching places, let me change with my sister to sleep on the couch."
"No, not on the couch."
"Then where? If in another room, I can't keep an eye on brother, maybe Anta will need something later. Going to the bathroom, going for a drink, etc., would be troublesome if I wasn't around sister."
"Then you sleep here-----" he said, "By my side."
As soon as I froze, my heart skipped like a pedal on a bicycle. Was it really what he said just now? is he serious about his words? I still keep gaping.
"Seriously?" I said with round eyes.
"Yes, I'm serious."
I turned around and climbed up slowly on the bed right beside Kak Anta, I breathed heavily and slept sideways against her, facing the white wall.
"Facing here, I want to see your face." He said suddenly, making me beat more and more.
There was nothing I could do but obey his orders, he looked at me and I looked back at him, when our two pairs of eyes met, he said, I pecked especially when I saw the smile scratches on his firm and masculine face.
"If it's next to you like this, I find it hard to close my eyes." Said slowly.
I woke up soon, and he followed.
"Sister is still heavy hearted huh, sleep one bed with me? just let me on the couch, brother?!" My speech.
Then he casually and solemnly replied; "I am not heavy-hearted, I really want you to be by my side. I find it hard to close my eyes because I want to keep enjoying your face."
I looked at Kak Anta fixedly to make sure that he did not mess with his words.
"Sister?----"
"Yes?"
"It's really you, isn't it? You're not possessed by another spirit in a coma, are you?"
"Other spirits won't know about the photos and about us" he replied.
"So little weird. Ever since coming out of a coma, sister Anta why is it so weird on me?" I asked him again to make sure.
"Here you go, you better get some sleep. It's night, pity our baby if you stay up."
We went back to bed again, this time trying to be more relaxed and not nervous.
"Sister---" I said slowly.
"Not slept?" He answered while propping his cheek up against me.
"I can't sleep," I leaned against Anta again, "According to sister, can we keep this up forever?"
"What?"
"I can sleep next to my sister, and I can no longer sleep on the couch. Are we going to stay close like this until the end? our marriage has only been two months, but the test has been a lot. How about years?" I said.
He took my hand and clasped it tightly, "We must be able to stay like this forever, so that any kind of obstacle we will be strong against him. There is no straight house, no ship always sailing in calm water. All will find their respective turns and all ships will surely experience vacillating."
"Sister is right" I said. "Only am I too afraid when I have to face severe problems again like yesterday. I'm afraid we're giving up---"
"No, okay? don't think about anything excessive. No matter what happens I will always be by your side, and you should always remember what I have said the most." His words interrupted my words.
Then I paused for a moment, and suddenly the words he meant came back to my ear; "I have chosen you, and will forever remain with you." I said.
"That's you remember, go to sleep. I'll watch you till you sleep."
"Sister?"
"I know maybe it's a little bit outrageous or maybe for you I'm impressed, but I just want to make sure ..... " I kept silent for a moment sighing, then continued my words.
"Would you open your heart and love me? just like tonight, when sister Anta allowed me to sleep next to brother?"
