After dinner, everyone returns to their room. Yuna insisted on having a casual conversation with Raina, unfortunately it did not work because Ms. Hanum scolded her.
"Yuna, let your sister rest. Don't bother them."
"But, ma..." Reply Yuna with her sour face.
"No buts, do you want me to hit?" Said Ms. Hanum casually while showing off her smiling face.
"No!" Reply Yuna while walking with her head down.
Recalling the conversation his mother and sister had ten minutes ago made Sawn want to laugh off. Raina who saw her husband smiling started frowning. Strangely enough, she thought nothing was funny but her husband smiled to himself.
"Darling, my guest is coming!" Raina said as she pulled her head out from behind the bathroom door.
"Guests? What guests?" Reply Sawn casually while closing her laptop and looking at Raina with a curious look.
"You still wear a hijab? When can I see my wife's hair?"
"I told you my guest was coming!" Raina said again, she looked panicked.
"Guests? Your max... You're bu-la-nan, right?" Said Sawn nervously.
Raina answered Sawn's question with a nod of her head.
"Allah Akbar... What else is this..." Said Sawn while cupping her face with both hands.
"I wanted to give you a surprise, unfortunately I couldn't. Still capable of fasting, right?" Raina asked with a faint smile. In her hands she still held a knee-length transparent white dress.
Looking at the dress Raina was holding with both hands made Sawn sigh deeply.
Raina wanted to laugh off seeing her husband's desperate face but she tried not to do that. A minute later Raina returned to the bathroom, he fancies to replace the robe he used with sleeping pajamas. This time she came out without wearing a hijab. His long black hair he let down beautifully.
This is the first time Raina has shown her hair to anyone other than her mother and sisters.
"Sawns..." Sapa Raina again, this time she walked towards the sofa where her husband worked. Sawn, who decided to re-examine the company's report, turned to Raina who called him.
"God's Masya... Can-tik his wife me." Sawn's words faltered at the natural beauty of the wife standing before him.
Raina's black hair seemed to glow under the slightly dim light. Ayu face without makeup polish it increasingly looks beautiful. Perhaps this is why people always say, beauty actually comes from the heart.
"Aren't you sleepy?" Raina asked because the clock on the wall had shown the number ten exactly. Sawn who was asked immediately cleared his throat slowly, as if Raina's question returned him to his subconscious.
"I still have a job, soon to be done. You can go to bed first."
"All right." Reply Raina while walking to bed. A second later, Sawn returned to work. He did not realize that Raina continued to improve her sleeping position, honestly Raina could not sleep with the lights on.
Slowly Raina walked towards the balcony, she stood there for quite a while. He occasionally took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled roughly from his lips. Many times he did that until he thought he was fine and felt blessed with the Fate God laid out for him.
I look at you without staring, I hear you without the need for tools, I meet you without the need to be present, I love you without the need for anything, because now I have everything. Lirih Raina in her heart while imagining her husband's face, she even stretched out her arms letting the night wind caress gently all over her body.
"It's very refreshing." Raina said softly with her eyes closed, without her noticing Sawn watching her from behind her back.
"It's so cold, why are you out?" Said Sawn again unravelling his question while hugging Raina's body from behind, he tightened his embrace in the moonlight of the night.
"I can't sleep with the lights on. I love the smell of my husband!" Tempting Raina, he smiled as he held Sawn's hand that was coiled on his slender body.
"I'm sorry!"
"For what?"
"To be a husband who knows nothing about his wife!"
"Who said my husband doesn't know anything about me? All I know is that he loves me so much! He'll do anything for me, including making me happy, and that's enough for me." Raina said softly as she looked at Netra Sawn for a moment, then she looked back to the front.
"Do you feel comfortable living here? If my beautiful wife isn't comfortable, we can go home right now, right now!"
"Wome, now? It's midnight, isn't it overkill?"
"Nobody is humbling when it comes to my wife's happiness and tranquility!" Reply Sawn.
The moonlight tonight bears witness to the love of two human children who love each other because of God, a love so long wrapped in silence can now be channeled with halal bonds. Holding hands or hugging is no longer a big problem, because their bond has got the blessing of the almighty God, the God who holds their souls.
"I'm sorry that the third dowry you asked for is a little hard for me!" Sawn said again full of regret.
"Difficult? Have you read the Qur'an?"
"Yes." Yeah." Sawn sighed then softly exhaled it roughly from her lips until Raina could feel her nape warm by Sawn's breath.
"I'm not disappointed even if you read it out loud. I was proud of my husband because he was trying to fulfill my request, even though it was hard for him." Raina said as she looked at her husband's face and floated a brief kiss on the thin lips of Sawn Praja Dinata.
"I know everything, Andre told me everything about the difficulties you had when reading the Qur'an. Andre also told me that he once led you to read the opening Surah of the Quran, maxutku surah Al-fatihah." Raina continued, the face looked helpless, she looked embarrassed and upset at herself as a household priest she did not fluently read the Qur'an.
"I'm happy because you want to learn, we will try to bring to life the household of Sakinah, Mawaddah, Warohmah. We will learn together until our Lord Rido on both of us, no matter what time we will spend a year, two years, three years, or maybe our whole lives." Said Raina while cupping her hands together on the handsome face of Sawn Praja Dinata.
Sawn smiled at Raina's short words, the short remark made it through her deepest depths. He was so happy that his tears fell on Raina's hand.
"You crying?"
"I was moved by my godly wife's words, hearing her words made me fall in love." Sawn held a faint smile on his handsome face.
"Tell me, why do you want to marry me while you never reveal that you love me?" Sawn unraveled his tan while turning Raina's body facing forward so that he could hug his wife from behind.
"Hmm, love? Who says I don't love Sawn Praja Dinata?"
Sawn gasped at Raina's words, all this time he only knew that Raina hated him, which is why he got a rejection that managed to make his heart torn. He wanted to hear a deeper confession from his wife, a confession that would make his heart race faster because it was happy.
I want you to know, secretly, I always put the same hope into the thousands of specks of rain, I want my next day to be with you. Raina said quietly while whispering in Sawn Praja Dinata's ear, a warm whisper that managed to make Sawn's heart race faster.
