My Life Partner [On Going.].
#37. Misunderstanding

"But wait a minute, I seem to recognize this man??? Is it possible that he is a man I already know???!!", asked Kevin..

After a long journey, Kevin arrived at his residence. Once there he immediately searched for his wife's whereabouts in the house but he had not found her in any corner of the room.

His residence seemed uninhabited, until Kevin threw his bag into the room and then immediately poured his body into a sofa in the living room while clucking annoyed because he did not find his wife in the house.

"Where did he go??? Why didn't he tell me??? The phone is still not active!!! It sucks!!", complained Kevin.

So tired was Kevin that he began to close his eyes on the sofa. When Kevin will start to fall asleep at once there is a soft caress that touches his face, so that makes Kevin's eyes open again. Seen by his beloved wife who was smiling to him, but Kevin also ignored him while getting rid of Dara's hand violently because he was still very upset with what had happened today.

"Darling, are you home yet??? Aren't you going home tomorrow??? Why don't you tell me first??", asked Dara.

"You must be very surprised because I returned to Jakarta so soon!!!", said Kevin.

"I've contacted you many times but your phone is always off!!! What's wrong with your phone??!!", asked Kevin suspiciously.

"Astaghfirullah's.. Sorry dear I forgot to tell you that my phone was damaged because this morning while washing clothes accidentally my phone fell into a bucket filled with water" replied Dara with regret.

"Huh, just excuse me!!! Sweetheart you've now started lying to me!!", Kevin's inner grumble is upset.

"Where were you then??? I was looking for you in every corner of the room but I didn't find you???", asked Kevin.

"The weather had started to cloud like it was going to rain so I lifted the clothesline upstairs" Dara replied.

"Dear, do you want me to prepare food???" asked Dara.

"No need, I ate on the plane. I'm so tired and need a break" Kevin replied.

With a face that still looks very upset, Kevin stepped away leaving his wife there alone. Now Dara's heart is shrouded in confusion because of her husband's attitude that was immediately different to her after his return from Batam.

"Mas Kevin what happened to you??? Why is your attitude suddenly so different like this??? What is wrong with me??!!!", asked Dara.

Her husband's attitude is very different from usual as if making Dara more confused not to understand what really has happened to her husband. But she also tried to resist all the changes from her husband.

In the bedroom looks Kevin was sleeping fast after he took a bath and Ashar prayers, it is seen from a wet towel and prayer mat lying on the nightstand. Dara also approached her husband who was fast asleep while she spread a blanket to cover his body.

"Maybe Kevin is too tired with all his work, so his attitude is very different today. Hopefully after you wake up later, your mood can be much better" muttered Dara smiling as she enveloped her husband.

In the afternoon Dara began to return with her activities cooking in the kitchen for dinner. She continues to do her duty as a wife by providing healthy and nutritious food for her husband. When he was in the kitchen immediately his head became sick, then he immediately turned off the stove and briefly stopped his cooking activities.

"Oh Allah, what's wrong with my head??" murmured Dara while sitting on the table.

After the pain in his head had begun to subside, then Dara continued to cook in the kitchen until the Maghrib prayer rang.

As the Maghrib Adhan finished reverberating, Kevin woke up from his bed. Kevin seemed to be still heavy to open his eyes, but he did not want to leave his obligation as a Muslim to pray 5 times.

After Kevin took ablution water, it appears in Dara's room is still not visible. He also looked at the clock of the wall that continues to beat and rotate, up to 10 minutes have passed but his beloved wife has not come to perform Maghrib prayers congregate.

"Darling, did you deliberately avoid me??? Shit, why do I still remember all that??? I guess after waking up, all those things disappeared from my mind!!! Astaghfirullah alazim, hopefully after I pray Maghrib my mind can be calmer", Kevin inner hope.

Not how long Dara came into his bedroom and found his beloved husband was performing Maghrib prayers, he just smiled to see a prayer mat that had been spread sweetly right next to her husband, along with the mukena folded neatly on it.

"Thank God after a month of our marriage, you've been so much better in worship. Mas Kevin is my best priest whom Allah has sent me", Dara smiled in full.

Dara approached her husband while reaching for the face she had prepared and then immediately put on her face to start the Maghrib prayer together with her husband.

After completing the Maghrib prayer, Dara extended her hand to the husband who had received their prayers. For a moment Kevin only fell silent while looking at his wife's face with a feeling that was still raging and not how long he finally reached his wife's hand, then Dara began to kiss the back of her husband's hand with humility.

"Is it possible that Solehah's wife seems capable of cheating on her husband??? O God give your servant guidance", Kevin inwardly pleaded.

"Honey dinner's on the dinner table, do you want dinner now??? Or after we finish reading the Qur'an together???", asked Dara while placing the Qur'an in his hand.p

"I'm not hungry" Kevin replied briefly.

Seeing her husband's mood still not improving, Dara became reluctant to ask him anything more. Dara preferred to remain silent and began to read the Qur'an together.

After they finished reading the Qur'an, they both returned and then continued to pray Isya together.

"Darling, let's have dinner together!!! I've made your favorite food!!!", invite Dara to smile while folding her prayer mat and face.

"You ate first because I was still full" Kevin replied as he took off the peci and sarong he was wearing.

Listening to the question from his wife, Kevin just stared at her nanar and was full of suspicion towards her. He was silent, not answering a single word of the question that had been thrown from his wife.

"Mas Kevin, see me??? Is there any mistake or mistake I have made with you???", asked Dara full of confusion in her heart.

"Miss what have you done this morning while I'm not home???!", asked Kevin suspiciously.

"What is Kevin???" asked Dara.

"My question is pretty clear, isn't it!!", said Kevin in a high tone.

"Astaghfirullah alazim, Mas Kevin what really happened??? Kevin can explain it to me in a good way, not in this way!!!", said Dara, taking a deep breath.

"Astaghfirullah alazim" said Kevin while rubbing his face violently.

"I think you've understood me all along. I don't like to waste time on unimportant affairs and including any lies!!!", Kevin's re-word starts to get inflamed.

"What is Kevin talking about??? Then what lies???", asked Dara.

"Where did you go this morning and who did you go with??? Just tell me the truth!!", asked Kevin furiously.

"Deg..!!!".

"I'll never go anywhere without your permission. Today I was just at home and cleaning the empty room that was on the top floor", Dara replied stammeringly by lowering her head.

"Why did you lower your head, was that a false answer from you??? Look me in the eye??? Miss, I love you so much and I don't want any lies between us. If there is something wrong, wrong or lacking that I have, I apologize to you", said Kevin while holding his wife's hands.

Listening to all his words, Dara just fell silent, then looked in both of his eyes the clear details began to fall down both cheeks. Seeing that Kevin immediately hugged his wife tightly, because he could not see the woman he loved so much was crying in front of him.

"I'm sorry baby, if all these words hurt your heart" Kevin said.

At the same time immediately Dara's entire body became weak and like he wanted to fall, Kevin immediately restrained his wife's body so as not to fall.

"Darling, why are you??", asked Kevin frantically while still hugging his wife tightly.

"I'm fine baby, you don't have to worry about my situation" Dara replied smiling.

Kevin immediately laid his wife's body on the bed while covering her body with a blanket.

"Darling are you sick??? Your face looks very pale!!, said Kevin anxiously by holding his wife's hands.

"I just had a little headache. Mas Kevin don't worry too much, I'm fine", said Dara while returning the tight grip of her husband's hand.

Seeing the situation of his weak wife helpless, now Kevin was reluctant to extend this problem.

"I won't prolong this matter any longer and I assume it's just a misunderstanding between us. Because I'm so sure and believe that you'll never do that to me, baby", Kevin said.

Then Kevin went to the kitchen to bring a plate of rice along with side dishes and a glass of drinking water to be given to his beloved wife.

Kevin painstakingly fed his wife slowly. Seemed so very attentive to her husband, until Dara looked at her husband full of haru because the love given by him was very much more than himself.

"Honey, after eating you take headache medicine and this vitamin???" said Kevin while stroking his wife's beautiful hair.

Dara just smiled while nodding her head as a sign that she agreed with the request from her husband.

After Dara took the medicine given by her husband, she slowly began to fall asleep right next to him. Seeing the face of his wife who looks very tired and still looks pale Kevin was with his faithful companion until he fell asleep.

"Oh Allah, if all this is a misunderstanding between the two of us, please give your servant guidance and give my wife healing", Kevin pleaded with his sleeping wife's forehead.

Now Kevin's anger and suspicion slowly began to disappear along with seeing the state of his wife who was sleeping weak and helpless.

As if regret for his wife also appeared in his heart, when Kevin saw the empty room on the top floor already looks more tidy and clean.

"Dear forgive me for not trusting you" Kevin said.

Kevin's remorse made him feel claustrophobic and difficult to breathe, because he did not believe the words of his own wife to make him tear up and fall ill.

Kevin loved his wife so much that he tried to correct all these mistakes and mistakes in his own way..

"The next day I will take a leave to accompany you dear and at the same time make amends for all my mistakes. I promise I won't be that easy to believe anymore in the words of others" Kevin promised..
