"I'm a patient, where dare the same weird nurse. I could have been abandoned. The longer it hurts," said Arka, laughing. He must have enjoyed my panicked face.
"You're sick, but you're still a prank shot" I said sneering.
"So you're panicking, what's on your mind right now?" ask Arka with a manyun tone.
"Yes, sorry" I said
Arka later said that she was sick from being too tired and sleepy. He admitted that he was easily sick, as much as possible he did not get tired and had to sleep regularly. Her body temperature had dropped after I tried desperately to force her to eat and drink Paracetamol. It seems like he has really improved.
Tonight for Arka's health reasons, I have to stay here. Indeed Arka's room is much larger than my room but still she uses a single bed that is the same size as my bed at home. There are no chairs I can use to sleep.
Arka could read my mind,
and it turns out Arka used a funnel bed so we could sleep in the same room but on separate mattresses.
"If tired, I can not sleep still, often fall, this is the solution mama so that I do not fall on the floor" said he
"Oh, my mother's favorite sister," I said, starting to tease her again
"Later the door is locked just let mama not come in," said Arka who made my brain stop for a moment.
"Why?" ask me for an explanation because honestly I think Arka must be doing things beyond my will.
"Yes later mama will protest if we know we sleep misah," said Arka and it makes a lot of sense.
I prepared my own bed. I pull the mattress from under the bed, I clean it and I put the bed sheet. After all neat, Arka instead sleeps on the bottom mattress.
"How come you're sleeping downstairs?" many wonder.
"You are above" said Arka, closing her eyes and blanketing.
"And you're sick, you're sick," I said, rejecting him and being honest from the heart.
"I told you, I can't sleep still, later I fall even nimpa you, want? If I'm any fun" said Arka while yawning very wide.
I then quietly did not answer, in my heart I apologized, for prejudice against him. I should have known, from the beginning Arka was always very good to me, she always tried to take care of me and make me comfortable. Even if he approaches me and seems to want to act strange it is only because he likes to tease me and enjoy my panic. I don't know if she's always enjoying my frightened, panicked face.
I lay down my tired body on the bed and looked at Arka's face that was a little pale from pain. Even so, he looks very handsome. Many women fall in love with him. His body was also very proportional, it seemed like that was where the most comfortable embrace was. As I realized, I closed my eyes very tightly, what the hell was in my head? Why did my mind go that far.
Immediately I followed Arka's request and then enveloped my body and served the already very sleepy eyes. Because I felt safe and comfortable with the existence of Arka, I slept very quickly, all tired of melting into a dream. Hopefully tomorrow will all be beautiful, hopefully I can live my household well. Arka is my husband, although it feels heavy and very strange at first, I have to try to be a good wife for him. I had to close everything about the Clouds and start opening myself up to Arka.
...****************...
I slept very well, after a few nights of very disturbing insomnia. The chirping of birds and the crowing of roosters sounded melodious in my ears. It's very comfortable to get up without Rayi's yelling or mother's nagging. With my eyes closed, I stretched my arms and body. And unconsciously I rolled and fell right over Arka's body and my lips until they touched her lips. It felt Arka wrapped her hands around my body, it felt warm and comfortable offsetting the cool air this morning. My heart was beating fast and I immediately took my face away from Arka's face.
"His morning kiss? " said Arka while opening her eyes and releasing her embrace.
I quickly took a sitting position. Why am I careless like this, Arka chose to sleep below so as not to fall on me but the opposite happened.
"Sorry Ka, I accidentally fell, I just fell," I said and Arka sat down to make us crunch.
"Sister, did you fall out of bed?" there was the voice of Bu Gendis softly half whispering behind the door .
"It's okay ma, mama don't bother newlyweds dong!" arka said without turning away and continued to look at me with an honest smile I thought was very sweet.
The sound of footsteps of Bu Gendis stepped away from the door. Honestly, it would have embarrassed me half to death if only Ms. Gendis knew what really happened. I wonder why I fell.
"Kas, I thought I'd only be your best friend in this marriage, but in fact you're too easy to love. I don't care if you don't return my love, but I will always take care of you" Arka said with deep eyes and deeply touched my heart.
"May I kiss your forehead like yesterday?" continue Arka again.
Whether hypnotized by Arka's words or bewitched by her sweet smile, I spontaneously nodded my head. Arka then put her lips on my forehead. Long, long time. I closed my eyes and was not hypocritical, I enjoyed a gentle kiss from Arka. Is it possible that I have also fallen in love with Arka? Or is my heart split for two loves? Or am I a greedy bastard, not wanting to give up old love but not rejecting the presence of new love? I opened my eyes and saw tears on Arka's cheek.
"What's up, Ka? Why are you crying?" I was surprised while wiping her tears with the tip of my finger.
"I'm just afraid I can't make you happy" said Arka who again touched me.
"Ka, I'm fine," I said reassuringly.
Arka's phone rings, it's weird who's this early? Arka then got up and took her phone which was placed on the nightstand.
"What's up, ndan?" arka said when answering the call.
The ndan? Who else is called 'ndan' by the Ark besides the Clouds? If it's Cloud, why did he call? Is Arka still related to the clouds? Aren't we planning to live somewhere far from the Clouds? What are they hiding from me?
