Huhhhhhhh!
I let out a rough breath after arriving at the door. My eyes were round as soon as I knew all the lights in the house were out. Whereas before I was sure Mas Araf was inside the house because he asked me to come home soon. I don't know where he is now?
I don't like the darkness, my breath starts to feel tight in just seconds. Without thinking for a second, I immediately looked for the phone I put in the bag, if I remained standing in this darkness then I would faint in the next few seconds.
"Aist! I'm really stupid!" I started grumbling as soon as I found my phone dead.
"Sabina, why are you so stupid? Aren't you at Mama's house all day? Then why are you careless and not charging your phone? Do you want to be gone?" Again I can only grumble in the dark.
Really, my breath is getting stiffer.
In this panic I can still be grateful, at least I have fulfilled my Magrib Prayer on the street, I asked Amri to stop for a while and choose the Prayer in the Mosque we passed. Had I not prayed, I would not have been able to live in peace, I would not have calmed down if I ignored the call of my Lord as Azan began to reverberate.
My breathing is getting stiffer, my head is heavy. And at the same time the lights suddenly lit up. My net was again rounded, I was amazed to see the home decor look different, I didn't even realize I was standing on the red carpet. A sign asking me to walk up the stairs was neatly placed at each distance of one step.
I still feel tightness in my chest but it's not as bad as before the lights turn on. It seemed like I was able to master myself, I took a deep breath and then exhaled it roughly from my lips, stepping slowly following the instructions I had placed.
"Oh my God, what is this? Who did all this? Mas Araf? That's impossible!" My babble while walking up the stairs.
The sign leading my steps ended at the door of my room and Mas Araf, slowly opening the door. Again, I could only feel great amazement. The therapeutic aroma sourced from the still burning candle caressed my sense of smell, the fragrance was soft and soothing.
Glekkk!
I swallowed the saliva looking at the beautiful figure that was currently standing in front of me. Seeing Mas Araf's charming smile made my heart race quickly, no matter what he planned to do to decorate our room like a newlywed room that would enjoy his honeymoon. Even the waiter he said was seven and was coming this afternoon not to be seen in my shade net, did Araf ask them to leave before they started working? I don't know, I didn't know that myself.
"You've arrived? I have been waiting for your arrival since! Thank goodness I didn't have to wait too long." Said Araf while extending his hand.
Without a second thought I grabbed Mas Araf's hand and upppppss... Mas Araf pulled me fast until it hit the chest of his field. He doesn't know that I'm so scared right now. The tightness and dizziness in my head had disappeared and replaced the fear. I was afraid that Araf would be mad at me, and I was afraid that I would not be able to control myself.
God, what is this? Why are you acting so strange? Tonight felt very different compared to the night when Araf gave the brown envelope, an envelope that I myself did not dare to glance at what else to open and read the contents! I muttered in my heart while staring at the shady Netra mas Araf.
The light from dozens of candles that Araf turned on added to the romantic impression, I currently feel like a female lead in a romantic movie.
"W-What's this?" I asked in a low, barely audible voice. I'm nervous.
Instead of answering my question, Araf embraced me even more. He put both his arms around my neck. Really, we were separated by a distance of five inches. I could even feel the softness of Mas Araf's breath hitting my red face.
"W-What is this, Mom? W-why are you acting so weird?" I again parse my stupid questions, stupid questions which of course lazy Mas Araf responded to.
Instead of answering my question, Mas Araf smiled mischievously. He hugged me! He buried my face in the chest of his field.
Sabina strengthen yourself, you don't faint in front of her. My babble in heart while trying hard not to look bad.
I was still silent, trying to digest the situation. To be honest I held my chest, hoping that my heart would listen to me not pounding, I was afraid that Mas Araf would hear the beat.
"I'm not acting weird, I'm hugging my wife! Does anyone mind?" Mas Araf whispered in my ear.
Wife!
Hearing that one word made me start to smile broadly, luckily Mas Araf did not see me. If not, he'll think I'm too smart.
"N-no! It's just, this moment feels so strange to me!" Reply quickly. From my voice, I was sure that Araf would be able to catch that right now I was very nervous and trembling.
"I should have done this in the first place, for some reason it took me a month just to muster up some courage."
"Gathering courage? What does Mas Araf mean?" I broke free from Mas Araf's embrace and stared at his shady netra without blinking.
"It took me a month just to hug you! It took me a month to realize how I felt about you! It also took me a month to express my feelings for you." Mas Araf's words stopped, he hugged me again, this time so tightly that I myself could feel his chest pounding so hard.
"I love you my wife. I love you Sabina Wijaya. I can't live without you. I can't be away from you for a second either.
I will bind you with my love so you won't be able to go anywhere. I want to always see you in happiness." Mas Araf said full of appreciation.
Really, I'm asleep. I happy. I give thanks to the Power for the grace of the gift of love that comes from it.
Without feeling my tears began to drip, not because of sadness but extraordinary happiness. I think every woman will feel the same happiness that I feel today if their husband expresses his love without limits.
Sabina is naughty! My chattering in my heart while tightening my arms around Mas Araf's waist, I further immersed my face in his field chest. Will this night pass beautifully as the beautiful melody of love reverberates? Or just the opposite will be gripping like confined in a dark room without light? I don't know and I can't guess.
I can't think clearly because right now I feel tense. I was tense and happy because the most handsome man in the world expressed his love for me. There is no better moment than the one I am passing through.
