That night was the most gripping night for Ara. Because Jack kissed her that afternoon made her cold. The man's lips felt still attached to his lips.
After a nurse entered the room, several servants also came in to bring various kinds of food. Looks like Mr. Beni told them to know that his legs hurt hard to walk.
Ara only watched as the male nurse finished bathing Jack and dressed him. He's astonished
why didn't Jack choose to be honest with him and end his lie? He was still pretending to be depressed, making Ara's heart upset as well. What does Jack want?
He would occasionally steal a glance at the man who was wearing his shirt by the male nurse. Isn't it a happiness to have a super handsome and rich husband? Again he remembered the kiss. Jack also said love to her. Is Jack really in love with her?
The daydream was immediately lost when suddenly Jack was sitting next to him, just to make Ara again misbehaved. He felt strange with his heart that was upset at the man sometimes disobeyed because it was not honest if it was healed but also he made his heart pound every near him.
“Jack, I just eat here, it looks like Mr. Beni has brought me something to eat, he knows my feet hurt.” said Ara, he will try to get down, he feels nervous near Jack.
Ara felt more and more that her heart would be removed just because Jack pulled his hand. Jack will kiss her again! It turned out that the assumption was wrong, Jack did not want to kiss her, but pulled the wheeled table containing food to get near the bed, making Ara relieved.
It's not that he doesn't want to be kissed by Jack, it's just that his soul hasn't really realized it can't believe Jack kissed him like that. Jack is not the Jack he used to be, he feels awkward again like he knows a different figure.
Jack didn't say much, he just put some menus on the plate. Again Ara was surprised when there was a spoon in front of her mouth. She looked at Jack.
“You want to bribe me? Ah no, I am not sick, I can be alone,” said Ara. But Jack didn't flinch.
“Eat,” says Jack, don't move his spoon.
“Well I eat,” said Ara, opened her mouth and ate the food immediately.
No one spoke, Jack just kept silent, continued to feed Ara while occasionally staring at her, of course he did not mind to always feed Ara, considering how his wife was so painstakingly feeding him and teaching him good food.
Ara also just ate without talking. Usually he talks all the time even though he is eating, he will continue to invite Jack to talk when depressed, but now no, he is confused what to talk to Jack, is he Jaim? Ah no, why Jaim? Jaim because there is a handsome General beside him who is bribing him?
“Jack why are you quiet? Speak out! Be honest with me!” inner Ara.
“Jack you also have to eat,” that comes out of Ara's mouth.
Ara's hand took a spoon in Jack's hand and then filled it with food and put it near Jack's mouth.
“You also eat,” he said.
Jack stared at the spoon for a while and then he opened his mouth and ate the spoon.
Ara takes a tissue to wipe Jack's lips but suddenly her hand stops when Jack looks at her, she realizes Jack is cured now, she doesn't need to treat Jack like a depressed person but... isn't he pretending he doesn't know Jack's healed?
“Jack why if you eat still not neat,” complained Ara, eliminating the awkwardness.
Ara continued to wipe the man's lips. The lips**** the man who kissed her earlier. Jack let his wife clean his mouth, he was used to getting such treatment, otherwise it felt like something was lacking.
Until their meal was over nothing was talked about, Ara really felt very awkward, confused about what to say. He suddenly felt wrong now.
“Jack, it looks like I will just go to sleep, I am tired,” said Ara trying to escape from this sudden erratic atmosphere.
“If you want to watch TV or talk to Mr. Beni, you can go. Oh yes your medicine is in Mr. Beni, soon Mr. Beni will be here to deliver your medicine,” continued Ara again, cold sweat has begun to appear again.
Jack frowned, was his wife avoiding him?
It was a very stressful night for Ara. Sleeping with a man who feels foreign to him. Though he had gotten used to one bed with Jack but since he knew Jack was healed, it felt like everything was going from scratch again, he needed to know Jack for the second time.
Ara just went to lie down and pulled her blanket, sleeping on her back to Jack.
Jack just stared at his wife's attitude that seemed to avoid him, but he didn't say much, his hands just tidied up the blanket.
Suddenly a kiss landed on his cheek. The man kissed her cheek. It turned out that Ara's guess was wrong again, he was already kegeeran the man would sleep hugging him.
“Good night,” whisper Jack into Ara's ear.
It seemed like Ara's heart was dislodged, why did that whisper sound so melodious in her ears? Jack I'm mad at you but I love you too, Ara's inner self.
After that the creaking of the bed was heard, followed by footsteps coming out of the room, also the sound of the door being opened and closed again, it seemed like Jack had gone out of the room.
Ara's heart felt plong knew Jack was gone, she immediately opened her blanket, she did not feel cold but felt increasingly sultry in this room. Then he came back covered. Sleeping, sleeping, he has to sleep instead of waking up and having to be alone with Jack, he doesn't know what he'll do if he doesn't sleep.
***********
Mr. Beni has prepared everything to go back home. Even though Jack was still silent, he did not want to speak honestly to Ara, but the man was still very attentive to her. During the journey, where always carrying his wife. Get in and out of the car, get on the plane, Jack always carries it. Though Ara had said her legs were better, but not heard her also still carrying her.
Ara was surprised that the man did not complain even though his body was quite heavy but for Jack it seemed to only carry a small child.
Finally Ara let Jack carry her on. He only felt Jack's sturdy back, smelling his delicate hair, quietly peeking at Jack's side face, staring at the cheeks he would often kiss if Jack had already bathed and dressed.
Seeing the arrival of Jack holding Ara, making Ny. Inez. Seeing so friendly they, Ara's misgivings will quickly become pregnant increasingly appear in her mind. Her daughter-in-law will cause more problems with her pregnancy.
“You're home Jack! You why?” ask Ny. Inez on Ara who's carrying Jack.
Ara would lower her legs but Jack's hands did not loosen holding her body.
“My leg is sick,” replied Ara, even though the pain in her leg had begun to decrease only Jack was still carrying her continuously.
Miss, Inez looked at Ara's feet, covered in plaster, and then looked at Jack.
“Jack be normal once you have arrived, rest for a while, later tonight Arum will come here with his mother,” said Ny.Inez, making Ara look at him. It was also until the house wanted to be directly met with Arum, he lamented in the heart.
“Arum will be here?” ask Ara.
“Iya,” reply Ny. Inez.
“So fast? We just arrived,” said Ara, protesting.
“Just meet, what's wrong?” said Ms. Inez.
“Arum?” said Jack.
“Iya Arum, you will meet your drowning little friend, she is alive, healthy and beautiful. Your wife must not have told you, right?” said Mrs.Inez glancing at Ara.
Jack did not answer, Ara did not tell if he had met Arum, what Arum and so on.
Ara only frowned when she had discussed the matter of Arum. She doesn't like Arum even though she knows Jack is causing Arum to drown, why does she feel that she's going to snatch Jack away from him? Ah never mind, it's just his ugly mind but he needs to be vigilant as well. Ara also wants to know what Jack will do if he meets Arum later.
“Well Jack, you better take me to the room, I'm tired,” said Ara, not wanting to talk at length with her mother-in-law.
Jack looked at his mother for a while, there were many things he wanted to ask his mother but he had to wait for the right moment. He immediately stepped his feet leaving his mother in the living room.
Mrs.Inez just stared at their departure, then turned to Mr. Beni who had been in the room, but did not say anything. Mr. Benipun immediately left Mrs.Inez.
Then Ara's father-in-law pulled out her phone and called someone.
“You're coming home? Jack just arrived from Paris. Yes, awaited,” said Ny. Inez hung up on me.
