Just Just Marrying
The pent-up attention
On the way home, Calvin and Bianca remain silent without any intention of starting a conversation with each other.
Is he angry with me? Why is his face so cold? It makes my body feel frozen.
Bianca occasionally stared at her husband's face which looked colder than usual.
He wasn't worried about me, was he? Why does he look so angry to see me get out of the car in this rain? Inner Bianca again made to wonder.
And unexpectedly, Calvin suddenly stopped the speed of his car which made Bianca stroke his chest.
"Why did you stop?" Bianca asked but did not get any response from Calvin.
Calvin was silent. But his hand moved to open the mantle that was now attached to his body.
"Wear it." Calvin handed the coat in his hand to Bianca.
"You told me to wear it?" Ask Bianca.
Instead of answering, Calvin preferred to look at his wife with a sharp gaze.
Bianca is made to be dedicated. Not wanting her husband to get angry, Bianca immediately put on the coat Calvin gave her.
"You'd be cold if the coat was given to me." Bianca said after zipping her coat.
Again Bianca's speech just floated away because Calvin did not return his words.
Am I allowed to feel that right now you're worrying about me and paying attention to me? Inner Bianca was hopeful.
Calvin drove his car back through the rain that night. Silence also again enveloped a couple who dissolved in their respective thoughts.
A few minutes later, the car arrived in front of the house. Their arrival was greeted with the sound of Cilla's cry which sounded quite loud inside the house.
"Cilla.." muttered Bianca and walked into the house with wide steps.
"Mommy.." seeing Bianca's arrival, Cilla hurriedly ran towards Bianca. "Mommy.Mom finally came home too.I'm so worried about Mommy..." Cilla was crying a mouthful. Her tiny hands were now tightly hugging Bianca's legs.
"Because I'm worried about Mommy. The rain is so heavy out there. I'm afraid Mom's okay." She wiped her tears with her thumb.
Bianca smile. "Now Mom is in front of you, isn't she? Don't cry anymore okay?" Bianca wiped away the tears on Cilla's cheek.
From the doorstep, Calvin stared at the interaction of Bianca and Cilla with an indecipherable gaze. His feet then stepped closer towards his wife and son. "Do you still want to linger with clothes that are still wet? Go to the room and clean your body or you'll have a fever in a minute." Say Calvin flatly.
Bianca was stunned. For the first time Calvin seems to be talking too much to him after months of silence like a rock.
"All right." Reply with a little smile. "Cilla's... Mom wanted to take a shower first. It doesn't matter if you were with Daddy here?"
"Alright Mom. I'll wait for Mom to come back." Reply with a face that still looks wet.
After Bianca passed from before them to her room, Calvin took Cilla to sit back on the couch.
"Daddy... Daddy's clothes are also wet... Does Daddy not want to replace them?" Cilla felt Calvin's clothes feel moist.
"No. Daddy will accompany you here first." Reply Calvin.
"But Daddy, you can get sick if you wear wet clothes. I'll be waiting for you and Mom here with Auntie. Daddy go to the room and clean up with Mommy."
