INSULATION (Troublemaker)
Chapter 119

"Darling, why silence hmmm? Still hurts, huh?" Erland's voice rang out again which made Maura now blink her eyes, looking right at Erland's eyes.

"What did I really hurt?" maura asked with her innocent face.

Erland looked silent for a moment with her hands scratching her nape.

"Hmmm that's the one below. Last night there was blood coming out when we had a relationship" Erland said, awkwardly discussing the incident last night that made her feel ashamed of herself.

Maura who understood Erland's direction this time, her white cheeks flushed red.

"Slightly," replied Maura briefly with a face that she pointed in any direction while not looking directly at her husband.

Erland who heard the answer from Maura was just nodding her head. And then there was no more conversation between the couple. Maura was still faithfully staring the other way by feeling her increasingly hot face restraining her embarrassment. While Erland, the man remained standing beside the bed with the head he bowed. Long enough the couple was struck by silence until Maura said, "Hmmmm I'll take a shower now."

That speech seemed to awaken Erland from his composure.

"Ahhhh alright. I went out first," said Erland and without looking at Maura, he immediately turned his body, then stepped his feet towards the door of the room, intending to get out of the room. And coinciding with Erland's slowly approaching door, Maura tried to get up from the bed. But just standing up he felt a pain down there that made himself a whimper reflex in pain, "Sttt aws!"

The moans coming out of Maura's lips managed to get into Erland's sense of hearing who had just wanted to open the door of the room. The man turned his head towards his wife. His eyes widened when he saw the look on Maura's face that looked in pain. Without waiting for long, Erland ran up to Maura.

"Darling, why?" asked Erland worried. Even he was now crouching right in front of Maura who was sitting on the side of the bed by holding both Maura's hands. Staring at the face of Maura who was still grimacing in pain.

"It hurts, huh? If we are still sick, we go to the hospital right now. I'll get you a change of clothes first. Just a minute." When Erland was standing and wanted to move, his arm was first blocked by Maura to the point that Erland would stop his steps.

"Why?" ask Erland.

Maura shook her head as she said, "No. We don't need to go to the hospital."

"Non't need. You can't walk this way, baby." Again and again Maura shook her head.

"I can still walk, Erland. Just grinning. Hmmm and if I may, I want to ask for help with you," said Maura who made Erland crouch again in front of the wife.

"Say, as much as I can I'll help you" he said.

Maura bit her lower lip. He was actually very embarrassed to say this. But he couldn't possibly push himself and there was only Erland in this house that he could ask for help.

"May I ask you to help me in the bathroom" Maura said.

"Thank you." Erland nodded her head in return for the words from Maura earlier. Then he stood up, then after he lifted the body Maura ala bridal style towards the bathroom.

"You sit here first. I prepared the water," Erland said, sitting Maura's body on a sitting toilet. And without waiting for approval from Maura first, Erland immediately prepared a bath for Maura.

"Wear warm water. I've been cooking water for your bath. I'll get the water first." After saying this, Erland rushed out of the bathroom and out of the room to the kitchen. His intention was to enter the room to see whether Maura had woken up from a deep sleep or not. If it had been he would have said if the hot water that would be used for the woman the bath was ready and if not Erland would have waited until Maura woke up himself later. But after seeing that Maura had woken up, she forgot her first intention earlier because she was quite worried when she saw Maura in pain because of her actions last night. Even he had time to think, how ferocious he was last night, to make Maura in pain like earlier when he had tried to play safe and soft. But it turns out the same he can still make Maura in pain.

Erland deftly prepared the needs of Maura bath until the change of clothes he also prepared.

Maura who saw the attention that Erland gave to him made Maura's heart touched as well as flinching, considering that he never paid any attention to Erland. Even just taking food to Erland's plate when they ate together he never did.

"Everything is ready. Can I help you again?" Erland's words awakened Maura from her wandering mind.

Maura seemed to stare at the bathub that had warm water before her eyes turned toward the small chair that was the dressing chair that Erland had taken earlier, where on the chair there is a small towel and a large towel and Maura clothes. Erland deliberately put the chair right next to the bathub so that Maura did not have to move much and also did not have trouble when taking it.

Maura now turned her gaze towards Erland back with a smile on her lips.

"No, everything you've prepared without me asking you for help first. Thank you," said Maura who was replied with a nod and a smile from Erland.

"Yes, I'm out first. Butbut wait. Can I help you get inside the bathtub?" Maura shook her head.

"I'll try to get there myself."

"You sure?"

"Dear, I'm sure" Maura replied without letting out her smile as she looked at the response Erland gave after she said the affection she was addressing her husband. Where the look on Erland's face like a surprised person but very funny in Maura's eyes.

While Erland whose heart he could not compromise anymore he cleared a moment to normalize his heartbeat, "Alright, I came out first. If you need something later, just scream because I will wait for you in the room. And when you're done, you yell too, call me because I'll help you out of this bathroom. I won't allow you to go too far before you recover."

Maura who heard the remark from Erland could only sigh but unruffled herself nodded her head as her representative to answer the remark from Erland.

While Erland who saw the head nod of the wife, he scrambled Maura's hair before he came out of the bathroom. When he closed the bathroom door, his hands touched his chest right next to his heart.

"God! Not quite right heart, the beat is very fast until it feels like it wants to be dislodged from its place! I can't keep going, I have to go to the heart doctor after this! Huh," murmured Erland who felt that his heart was in trouble at this time. Though he himself actually knows the cause of his heartbeat spur twice than usual, of course yes because of Maura, who else could make him almost hanging every day if not his beloved wife. Hmmm beloved? I don't know.
