As Salma was about to turn her face away with a look of disapproval, Angkasa held her back and led her to sit on the edge of the bed. Space understands if this conversation is sensitive enough, let alone dealing with women who prioritize feelings and override logic. A little mispronunciation will have a long tail and impact on the next marriage relationship.
"Look, look. Duuh, the twins' mama if it's a snack like this." Space wiped his wife's tears that were still dripping.
"The kids are asleep?"
"Hm."
"I want a fairy tale, but I'm afraid you fall asleep before you can wash your face with a change of clothes."
"What the hell. I'm not a kid."
"Well, this is a fairy tale for adults." Angkasa glared seductively, but Salma's still resentful heart saw that as a mockery.
"Come, come. Change clothes first and then wash your face." Space led his wife into the bathroom.
"I can do it myself." Salma moved her shoulders, gently brushed off her husband's hand that was embracing her shoulder.
"Okay, okay, I'll just wait here."
After Salma entered the bathroom, Angkasa also prepared. The contents of his head revolved around looking for an explanation that was easily understood by the woman who was disappointed and jealous.
"Sit here." Space patted the side of the bed as soon as his wife came out of the bathroom with a long and wide negligee, "Near dong, 'Kan Mas wants to tell." Space pulled Salma's body until his wife fell into his arms.
"I'm sorry, I may not be perfect as a husband to you yet." Angkasa repeated his previous words, "There haven't been two months we've been married, you've been crying like this. What kind of husband am I." Space rubbed Salma's back and occasionally peeked at the top of her head.
"What story do you want?"
"Ow, wait for the story?" Angkasa pretended to be surprised.
Smiling, he continued, "Promise not to get angry and go to sleep before the story is over."
"Hm."
Space tightened his arms, making sure his wife didn't run away before she got to the core of the story.
"When I lost Debby, I felt like my world was over by then. I often locked myself in my room and let Emran take control of my work. Yeah, well, that's my mentality first."
The space took a deep breath before continuing. Telling this was the same as exposing the pain he had felt before. He felt Salma's moving body wanting to break away. Space is ready and can predict the reaction of his wife, not let Salma out of his embrace.
"Family and friends who cared for me at that time repeatedly said I should be sincere and should move on. I am sincere, but my life seems to have no purpose anymore. Moreover, my parents are no longer there and I also have no brothers. So who am I working hard for?"
"Many of them have also matched me with other women. Even many volunteered to offer themselves." Space chuckles amusedly remembering that time.
"But whose name is numb, no one can understand."
"Until a moment when I was at my lowest and resigned, I felt the Lord say to me, 'Prophe Space, you just need to be patient.' I said, 'Okay, God, I'll be patient. Give me your lead."
"Then I heard your voice. Yeah, just your voice on the radio. I've told this story before, haven't I?" Space lowered his head and saw Salma nod. His wife seemed enthusiastic to hear his story.
"I fell in love with you just from your voice. Believe ga?" Salma moved both of her shoulders indifferently. Space chuckled and kissed her forehead fatigued.
"I say in my heart, 'Yes, this must be Your answer, Lord.' I'm excited, find out who you are and intend to come to see you. But what happened, I was disappointed the second time." Angkasa sighed annoyed considering the incident on the radio station at that time.
"I was disappointed and was angry at the circumstances that were playing tricks on me. When you want to rise up, but immediately hit by reality. I returned to Jakarta and preoccupied myself with work. No longer want to care about the name of woman, soul mate, marriage and offspring. I'm mad."
Salma could hear her husband's heartbeat beating faster and his breathing roaring more when suffering from this part.
"Then I saw you that morning, Salma was among the many women who smiled at me. Unfortunately, you're the only one who doesn't smile." Angkasa waving his lips made Salma giggle amusedly.
"I hold back hope because I don't want to be disappointed anymore. I pretended I didn't see you and assumed you were there."
"But you can't, honey. My pebinor soul appears .. aauuww." Salma pinched angrily hearing her husband say that.
"I came to Yogyakarta and asked you to accompany me. Though I usually walk alone everywhere, but I want to be spoiled just as you ask usherin." Space chuckled loudly as Salma tried to pinch him again.
"When you brought the twins to pick me up at the airport, I immediately felt that something was wrong with your household. Forgive me for not being sympathetic at the time but instead being happy and wishing you a quick separation." Space laughed loudly.
"But I understood one thing. At that time God did not allow you to directly meet me, because HE wanted you to be more mature in marriage and life. It might also be to compensate for my selfish and fragile self. I found you tough, patient and overly concerned with other people's feelings. One more important thing, from your marriage becomes the path for Cakra and Candra present in the world. I have to thank Armand for having two sons at once."
Salma lifted her face and looked at her husband with teary eyes.
"At my age that has passed from this ripe, not necessarily get a child. Even if there is, maybe my time with him isn't as long as other parents."
"Mas Asa said what the hell!" Salma hit her husband's chest upset. He didn't like the talk of turning sad like this.
"Hehehe, reality anyway? Mmm, or then we'll have to be gaspol from now on."
"Gaspol what?"
"Every night for the kids. If it could be a year, one child."
"Don't, speaking of what the hell. How's that story going."
"That's the important point. Yuk, we start tonight." Space pulled Salma's body to the ground and covered it with a blanket until it was completely invisible.
Salma, who was shy and refused, began to laugh and keep up with her husband. The sky smiled widely, the mission was successful. True people say if there is a dispute between husband and wife, the best solution is on the bed and Angkasa has done both. Good with chatting and then rise to a higher level that is the motion of bathing sweat on the bed.
