Light For Gus Mu
Chapter 75: Sulking
At Wafi's house, Burhan's grandfather is stroking his granddaughter's big belly, not feeling it, his granddaughter will now become a mother. Shafiyah kept quiet and kept smiling. Wafi and Raihanah watched the two while smiling.
”Why does diem continue?" burhan asked, his great-grandson was not as active as Wafi was talking about.
”Now I met Grandpa, I don't know!" wafi's chirps are flat and his knees are directly pressed down on Raihanah. Wafi's original speech made Burhan immediately laugh.
”Benevous also,” added the grandparents and Shafiyah smiled.” Take care of yourself, do not stress, if it takes anything to say with grandfather,” he said back and Shafiyah glanced at her husband at a glance, saw the delicacy of his wife's eyes, made Wafi stop smiling.
”Why so dear!!! what am I wrong?” muttered Wafi who was easily aware of the change in his wife's attitude." Is it because of the dedemit again?" he's back, suudzon.
”You didn't tell me the same thing, the thing that would create misunderstandings.” Shafiyah muttered and continued to bow. Unwilling to look at her husband, and Wafi looked at her softly.
”Father has eaten? if not, let Wafi be friends, do not be shy, we are glad you came, let alone Shafiyah,” said Raihanah and Burhan turned his head, then smiled, returned the friendliness of the skinny woman.
”Thank you Miss, I ate earlier, I am happy to be here, let alone see my granddaughter.”
”Yes, you haven't been here for a long time."
”Yes this is how I am Mom, from the house of this child continues to another house, from the house of this grandson continues to the house of another grandson, if at home I continue to be bosen, I will continue to live,” so excited he explains.
”Alhamdulillah yes sir if many children." Raihanah smiled and Burhan too.
While Wafi and Shafiyah, staring at each other fixedly. Shafiyah occasionally threw away face but the man's gaze continued to point at her, not releasing her from her two eagle eyes.
The night was getting late, Burhan would stay over and Shafiyah was preparing everything in the room, next to her room. Burhan is very tired, he wants to immediately lay down his body, while Raihanah, he invited Faiza to go to Chairil's house, tomorrow, will be held hair clippers show Chairil and Khalisah. Raihanah was there to help, and was gathered with other relatives, although in fact she was lazy to see Khalisah. But she could not behave like that, let alone to her brother-in-law, she did not want, the stupid behavior of Khalisah made her relationship with relatives of her late husband stretched.
Shafiyah put on a new bedsheet, all new for her grandfather to rest, Burhan helped Shafiyah put on a pillowcase and she kept watching her grandson's belly.
”What is Wafi good neng?” ask Burhan." No problem, right?”
Shafiyah smiled faintly in response, then said.” So good cake, don't worry, why is his grandfather so? did not grandpa already know a long time ago Wafi?”
”Yes, his name is also old man, worried that there is, we do not know what kind of human nature is,” said Burhan and Shafiyah nodding his head.
”Iya, Fiyah knows. But grandpa don't have to worry, Fiyah is happy.” Shafiyah reassured and Burhan smiled.” I'm ready, now grandpa take a break, call Fiyah if you want something or there's nothing cake."
"Yes, tomorrow we go to Khalisah's house neng.”
”Iya, tomorrow we go.”
”Yes, grandpa wants to sleep, tired!"
”Iya sok, Fiyah stay yes cake, happy break grandpa dear." Shafiyah smiled then kissed her grandfather's cheek at a glance and Burhan chuckled.
”Have been married but you haven't changed."
”Ya biarin.” As the girl stepped towards the door, she opened the door and walked out, Burhan smiled and closed her eyes slowly.
Shafiyah stepped away towards the stairs, but her hand reached Wafi from behind and Shafiyah flinched.
”Bikin shocked!!" the girl's protest was upset. Trying to retreat but his waist is now embraced." Aa loose!" he was annoyed and Wafi watched him.
”Why does the angry guy keep going? I got it wrong?" he softly asked, then slowly took off Shafiyah's wrist, now he changed by hugging his wife's body, Shafiyah was silent, and Wafi stroked her hair gently.” Kangen," he continued, which felt that it had not been given rations and rights by the wife for a long time.
Shafiyah squirmed, releasing a hug Wafi and Wafi glared, she was rejected again now? what harm? he's so frustrated.
”Neng, I got it wrong?” he said then cupped his wife's cheeks gently, he kissed her lips three times, when he wanted to reach deeper, Shafiyah refused.
”Let's see, you don't know where ya a!" the girl protested while glaring back.
”Yeah, no one! I was wrong, right? umi Utun is not like this if there is no problem mah, baby, why hey? what am I wrong?” he said hoarsely, and now just clasping Shafiyah's hand, he looked at the girl fixed, his eyes, his nose, his lips, his cheeks, everything could not be separated from his gaze.
”Aa haven't told me anything?” the girl charged, the man before her must have understood, there is no way not!.
”What is?” Wafi honestly, he was confused by the words of Shafiyah.
”Hemmm!" Shafiyah was upset, trying to take off her grip but Wafi held back.
”Honey!!!” said Wafi began to sulk, then dropped his chin on Shafiyah's shoulder, Shafiyah was silent, not hugging the man she wanted to hug it "Help or no!" Wafi was upset waiting.
Shafiyah finally hugged her husband's body and Wafi smiled.” Aa did not say the same to me, if aa ever taught ta'aruf with his sister ustadz Aidan,” added the girl and immediately took off his embrace, Wafi was surprised and wondered, how does his wife know?.
”Yang...!”
”Why not tell?"
”Yes because it doesn't matter baby!"
"That's important, can cause misunderstandings, especially the person deketin you continue!” shafiyah's voice was high and hoarse, her eyes were watery and Wafi grabbed Shafiyah's hands. Shafiyah did not want to, and chose to leave, was about to go to the room but Wafi held her suddenly, just as the girl was shocked, Wafi took her to the sofa, then she sat down next to Shafiyah.
Shafiyah.
”That's real, but it's been a long time, before we got married. I refuse because I don't want to. I never met his sister Aidan once, never the.” Wafi denied it and Shafiyah glared.
”His sister ustadz Aidan is here a!! she's one of the teachers here, the girl who's always been close to Aidan, that's her sister! Romlah, who once convinced you ta'aruf, until now he tried to get you, but you do not realize it was him."
"Asstaghfirullah thing dear adzim, I don't know. I have never been close to anyone, including santriwati, let alone the teachers in our pesantren dear. Trust dong! I didn't know she was here, even if I knew, I didn't care, I just care about you, like our baby-to-be. Yes, don't be angry.” Wafi was a little annoyed, until he grabbed his hair until it was a mess.
Shafiyah kept quiet and threw away her face, quickly. Wafi cupped his wife's cheeks and pointed her face, only at her.
”See me!!"
”I'm afraid he's desperate."
"We pray, may we be kept away from the temptations of the women and men out there. I'm also worried about you if you want to know, in college a lot of guys are far away from me, that's obvious. In pesantren, many students and teachers like you. You think I'm not worried? same, I'm also afraid you're turning.” Wafi explained and Shafiyah looked at him, the girl started to calm down and wither.
”I love you, I know you're jealous, it's natural. But do not let you be enslaved to the temptations of the devil as it is beautiful, do not let our relationship crack in the slightest, it is the thing that makes the devil happy. Thank you, for my wife who always asks and speaks directly when things go wrong and make you uncomfortable, thank you for making things easier,” he added with a weak look, and he said, his hand moved caressing the beautiful face of his wife, Shafiyah was silent and washed away in the touch of her husband.” Believe me, don't you?"
”Iya!” shafiyah ketus.
”I'm just yours, you know it's not easy, you know that too, how can I leave a woman who has sacrificed so much for me for the sake of women out there who are not clear! just trust me Habibah, as long as I don't change and treat you well, if otherwise, it means I'm lost, scold me and do'ain me if it happens.” Wafi's voice raspy and Shafiyah looked at her husband so deeply, she was silent as her cheeks were peppered several times.
”Smile, don't frown!" firmly Wafi and Shafiyah smiled faintly. The man smiled widely, then took Shafiyah immediately to the room to rest.
...✍️✍️...
The next morning, the dew was still visible, the air was so cold, and people were seen wearing jackets. The drizzle also came down this morning. A grandfather-grandfather walks with his grandson, he holds an umbrella to protect himself and his grandson from drizzling. While another man in the back walked leisurely, wearing a black hoodie and a black sarong, his hoodie covered his head wearing a peci.
”Cold yes neng, grandpa is not strong." Burhan complains and Shafiyah embraces his grandfather's waist. Wafi kept silent and put both of her hands into her hoodie pocket.
”Later at Khalis' house, Fiyah mintains warm tea for grandpa." Shafiyah said and Burhan smiled, the woman turned her head and Wafi sneered, Shafiyah chuckled at her husband.
Arriving at Khalisah house, on foot for 15 minutes, Wafi did not enter, he sat in front of the house and chatted with Ikhsan. Seeing the arrival of Shafiyah and Burhan, Khalisah was enthusiastic, let alone seeing Burhan carrying gifts for his baby. Burhan sat next to the mattress where Khalisah was sitting and the baby was lying down, while Shafiyah went into the kitchen, where all the relatives were busy eating breakfast.
”Assalamu'alaikum," said Shafiyah.
"Wa'alaikumus Salaam.” Answer everyone.
”Neng," said Raihanah who had just returned home.
"Umi, where are you going?"
”Umi want to go home first.”
”Teh, let Chairil between ya," said Faiza.
”Jalan aja, deket." Answer Raihanah. Then he looked at Shafiyah again." Is your mama gone?"
”A Wafi is in front.”
”Let Wafi anterin you then, use motor chairil.” Faiza replied, Raihanah smiled at Faiza's excessive worrying behavior.
Raihanah finally agreed, Faiza delivered Raihanah while carrying the keys of her son's motorcycle, she was shocked to see Burhan was there and had not been treated with anything. Wafi finally went to deliver uminya and Faiza immediately entertained Burhan, Khalisah's parents were coming home first, the afternoon will come again and he said will be together with the Shafiyah family.
”Pak, here is the cake too, nothing strange." Faiza placed the plate containing the cake she ordered to her own nephew, and some more pastries from the other store.
”This is also a lot, not already out of everything Mom. I'm sorry, just to see Khalisah,” said Burhan and Faiza smiled.
"That's okay, Thank God you are here now, just relax sir,” said Faiza and Burhan nodded. Faiza left the three and returned to the kitchen. He was immediately pulled by Shafiyah who wanted something but was embarrassed to speak out loud.
”Bi, want anget tea." Shafiyah whispered and laughter from Faiza's lips made the girl smile.
"You are, like anyone, take anything whatever it is up to neng, do not hesitate.” Faiza exclaimed and Shafiyah nodded. Shafiyah finally made some tea and she turned her head to see her husband enter the kitchen.
"Bi, key," said Wafi while thrusting the key to Faiza.
”Mu, breakfast!" bargain the other relatives and Wafi just nodded.
"You want coffee? cigarette asks for the same thing with your mama." Faiza chimed in and Wafi was wide-eyed, Shafiyah was silent and Wafi glanced at her at a glance.
”No, I don't smoke!" said Wafi nervously.
”Iya now do not, later bill continue to kayak train." Faiza said and Wafi glared, her aunt's policy even made the atmosphere worse. Wafi kept shaking his head and he turned around, as he was about to come out, Wafi pinched his wife's waist in a daze and Shafiyah almost screamed, Wafi chuckled small and hurriedly ran away. And he didn't realize Khalisah was watching him. Why is Wafi getting so handsome now? getting better after marrying Shafiyah? inner Khalisah.
”What if I scream? you flirty!!” muttered Shafiyah upset herself. And after he finished making tea, he came out of the kitchen.
