Married to a Big Boss
The Subuh Prayer

The alarm sounds, both from Ica and Bayu phones. The tuned time reads fifteen minutes before the dawn of the adhan reverberates. However, both of them were still sleeping in their respective places. Bayu who just slept for about half an hour and Ica who is still tired. They found it difficult to get up at the usual hour they woke up.

Adhan dawn reverberate. Ica nodded from her sleep. Then, like a drunk man, he looked around, making sure he was in a safe place.

"Well.hijabku?" Ica immediately rushed to find her hijab after realizing she released it before going to bed. He also quickly put it to his head. Afraid that Bayu would see it. Speaking of Bayu, Ica did not see Bayu beside her. Maybe Bayu had gone to the mosque, he thought. Today he was asleep because he just woke up at dawn. She did not get up to drive her husband. Failed as a wife.

As he wanted to go to the bathroom to pick up the ablution, Ica passed his sofa which looked more prominent than usual. Look at the mound covered in a dark blanket, covering the original color of the sofa. Out of curiosity, Ica wanted to see the contents inside first before taking ablution.

When he wanted to open the blanket, he was surprised because the blanket had opened by itself. Bayu lowered the blanket that covered his face. "Mas Bayu? Why not go to the mosque? Then, why sleep here, anyway?" said Ica astonishment.

"Mas, wake up, Mas!" Ica chose to wake Bayu up first.

Many times Ica woke him up with a voice, sometimes by shaking Bayu's body too, but Bayu still did not want to wake up too. Later, Ica recalled how she woke Bayu up to have breakfast together after their wedding. True, Ica whispered directly into Bayu's ear and Bayu immediately woke up. Ica wants to try it now.

"Mas.., wake up, it's dawn, you know," said Ica. It is not too whispered into Bayu's ear, maybe it is less effective to directly wake Bayu up.

Then, Ica tried to stick as close as possible to Bayu's ears and repeat her speech. "Mas Bayu. Come pray dawn. Adhan has finished reverberating," he said. Dan, successfully. Ica's speech which was immediately whispered in the most sensitive area of Bayu, plus the content of Ica's speech managed to make Bayu stunned.

"What time is it now? Why don't you wake me up?" ask Bayu fret.

"Ee.., sorry, Mas. Usually, you, right, wake up on your own, Mas. You're also growing up late for gini." Ica feels guilty, but ends up blaming Bayu as well.

"Who do you think this is because of, huh? I slept like that and didn't think I was in this room. Fuck up!" And finally Bayu also returned to his original character who likes to be angry.

"E.....? Means Mas Bayu see Ica does not wear hijab?" tanya Ica was surprised. In fact, he really hopes Bayu does not see his hair after knowing Bayu does not sleep in the same bed with him.

"Wear it again!" Bayu starts the circus.

"Well? Is it wrong if it is?" Ica replied with sarcasm.

"Don't make trouble! I only slept an hour today. Quickly take ablution and perform prayers! I'm going to the mosque soon."

"Mas Bayu no longer have time, you know, if you want to go to the mosque."

"Yes, I know. Praying at home."

"Only?"

"Jamaah! Don't ask unnecessary questions! If there is you as my wife, why should I pray alone?" Bayu unknowingly his words touched Ica's heart.

"Mas Bayu is a priest?" tanya Ica sounded happy.

"Raisa, stop! You think I'm the makmum? Don't ask me something that has an answer! You know I'm sleep deprived! Don't make trouble!" Bayu precedes Ica to take ablution water first.

"Mas Bayu.., this is the first time we have prayed together. It doesn't feel trustworthy. All this time you wake up to pray tahajud, but never wake me up also to pray congregation. This morning, I am thankful that you woke up late. Maybe this is wrong, but I honestly admit it, "the inner Ica is happy. His smile expands while thinking about it.

"Quick! I have finished ablution, nih," said Bayu began to low volume. Perhaps the fire of his anger was extinguished along with the dousing of his face with ablution water. Bayu's face so radiant look in the eyes of Ica even though today he said lack of sleep.

And the prayer went on solemnly. Ica never tired of admiring Bayu with his prayer suit. The suit that he likes the most from all the looks that Bayu has ever shown. Now, Ica along with Bayu in the prayer suit, became Bayu's mum in the back. Just with that alone, again makes Ica happy.

After praying, Ica came to Bayu. Sneak takes Bayu's right hand for him to salim.

"She's! What are you doing?" tanya Bayu was strong, making Ica surprised.

"I-Ica just salim doang. Can't you? That's, right, what a wife should do after having a congregational prayer with her husband?" Ica was afraid to answer.

"You forgot? I take care of wudhu!"

"M-sorry, Mom. Ica forgot. Again Ica will not do it again. Again sorry Ica, Mas." When it was this clumsy, the sentence became ineffective.

"God, I can take ablution again." Bayu also moved from his seat wanted to move his legs towards the bathroom.

"Mas!" intercept Ica in the middle of Bayu road.

"What?"

"With you no more ablution, you should continue, dong!"

"Replace what?"

"Ica's forehead kiss after Ica salim Mas Bayu," said Ica full of courage.

"Hahaha, don't joke! Where did you learn about that? Forget that! I'm going back to sleep after this." Bayu even laughed at Ica. Ica was upset that she had gathered the courage to say such an embarrassing thing.

Bayu immediately clean his prayer equipment. Then lying in bed to go back to sleep makes up for the lack of sleep.

...----------------...

An hour before you go to the office. Since dawn, Bayu decided to go back to sleep, but could not. He decided to continue working to his study to fill the time until the hour to leave for the office.

Ica served sweet tea to accompany Bayu work. Then, he tried to slightly look at his phone to fill the time. Since arriving at the orphanage, he had not opened his cell phone at all.

Smile expands when seen the top chat, Bayu turned out to reply to his chat last night. He can't wait for the day when Bayu can come with Ica to visit the children's home. He did not expect, Bayu can happen like this. Maybe Bayu thinks about his attitude to Ica is bad, meaning he wants to be friendly to Ica by sending a chat containing hospitality. Ica's mind may have been very wild, she looked a lot hopeful.

Many hopes! Ica saw the next chat sent by Caca. A photo in which Bayu smiled sincerely, do not forget the note in the form of a message that makes Ica hot. Ica believes it is a photo secretly taken by Caca, because Bayu's smile looks very natural there. Surely Bayu was happy when he had a meeting with Caca. The hospitality earlier, a reply chat is Bayu sent to Ica sincerely too? Bayu did that for formality, Ica thought afterwards. Bayu only still has a sense of happiness left when he meets Caca, so channeling it also when you want to reply to a chat from Ica that the contents of the chat also managed to make Ica had a thin smile read it.

"What are you talking about until you look happy like this, Mom?" inner Ica wondered.

"Mas Bayu is very happy in this photo. If you remember, there are no happy memories between us. Mas Bayu never showed a smile or a laugh in front of me. Means, Mas Bayu is not happy when I'm with me."
