"Don't expect me to touch you. Because I don't want to touch a dirty woman who can't keep her chastity" Ansel said on the first night of her marriage to Drabia.
Drabia lowered his head so Ansel would not see his tears. Drabia could not refute Ansel's remarks, because it was true. He slept with another man accidentally. The man was a married man, so Drabia did not hold the man accountable, not wanting to be third.
Drabia and the man agreed to hide the incident. But the name of the carcass, will definitely still smell even though it is hidden neatly. Out of nowhere people knew it, until the news blew into the ears of Drabian parents. This is where Drabia is. In Ansel's room the man asked his parents to marry him, to cover up the family's disgrace.
"If not for the kindness of your parents. I will never marry you. But I have no power to refuse your good father's request, which has been instrumental in maintaining Papa's company" Ansel said.
Since the age of twelve, Ansel's father has died. And all this time Drabia's father who guarded the company of his parents, so it still survives to this day. Until the company was fully handed over to him as heir.
Ansel pulled a pillow from the top of their wedding bed, and threw it on the sofa.
"I wouldn't sleep in one bed with you. Please sleep on the sofa or on the floor" said Ansel again.
Drabia who was standing from earlier near the door of the room, slowly dragged her feet towards the sofa. The bridal clothes were still attached to her body. Likewise with the crown and hijab still adorn his head.
After sitting her body on the sofa, Drabia opened one by one the decorations attached to her hijab. Actually Drabia needs glass to open the decoration on his head. But he did not dare if he had to move to the dressing table in the room.
The buar!
Suddenly Drabia jumped to hear the pounding of the bathroom door that was closed firmly by Ansel. Ansel was really angry with their marriage.
Inside the bathroom, the twenty-five-year-old man looked at his face on the washtapel glass. Ansel rubbed his face rough until his white skin looked red. And then straight and thick hair back with rough.
He was a single man who always kept his chastity from being called a woman. Hoping that if he finds a soul mate, he gets a holy woman as well.as he had heard from ustadz teacher taught him first.' A good man will get a good wife. And vice versa.'
But what?, what did he get?. Even Ansel got an unholy woman, who had slept with people's husbands.
Ansel exhaled his coarse breath from within the mouth. Until the mirror glass in front of him looks like dewy exposed to carbon dioxide coming out of its quality. Given the fact he married a woman who was no longer holy. The guy who ate the jackfruit, but he got the sap. That proverb is perfect for Ansel.
Finished cleaning himself in the bathroom, Ansel came out with full clothes on his body. Drabia was still busy opening the ornaments on his head.
Ansel did not care about it, he walked towards the mattress, pulled a blanket neatly folded at the end of the bed, then throw it into the petals of red roses in a neatly arranged heart-shaped in the middle of the mattress. after the flowers are clean from the top of the mattress, the flower is clean, Ansel laid down his body and covered his body with a blanket in his hands.
Drabia who saw that could only sigh. Almost everyone looked at her contemptuously because of the incident that night with the husband of the person.
Almost one o'clock, Drabia just finished cleaning up. Looking in the first third of the night. Drabia also chose to pray the night before the break.
Actually Drabia is not a religious person, but since that incident. He only prayed at night, complaining to God for what had happened to him. Drabia continued to ask God for forgiveness for all his sins.
Hearing faint sounds of people teaching. Ansel's sleep became disturbed, he opened his eyelids looking for the source of the melodious voice.
'Sok alim' his lips inwardly, pulling the corner of his lips to the side.
Ansel went back to sleep, covering both ears with a pillow. Not to hear Drabia's voice again.
"Syodaqollohul ajim"
Drabia closed the little Qur'an he carried in his suitcase. As Drabia stood and folded his face and tongue, he saw Ansel sleeping with his ears closed. That means Ansel's sleep is disturbed when he hears her teaching.
After Drabia kept her little mukena and Qur'an. Drabia laid her body on the sofa.
'I must be patient, I'm sure all must have passed' Drabia's inner self began to close her eyes.
Drabia did not feel any tears dripping as her eyelids were tightly closed.
**
In the morning, Drabia looks busy in the kitchen. He'll make breakfast for her and Ansel. Although Ansel did not want to touch her, Drabia would still carry out her duties as a wife.
When arranging the food on the table, Drabia saw Ansel coming down the stairs, Drabia called Ansel for breakfast.
"Ansel, I've made breakfast for you!."
Ansel turned to Drabia, then looked at the food on the table. The food looks tempting, and the aroma is also very fragrant.
"Near you I will not. What else is eating your cooking!."
Hearing Ansel's words, Drabia's heart ached, not just touching it Ansel did not want, even it seemed like the food he touched was disgusted.
"Am I so disgusting?. Until the food touches, it becomes unclean for you" asked Drabia with glassy eyes.
"Here you go, you eat your own cooking. Don't ask me to argue, I don't know what you want to do in this house. But never bring your man here" said Ansel saw Drabia who had shed tears.
"Is that me in your eyes?" lirih Drabia with trembling lips. He accidentally slept with another man. Not selling yourself into a comfort woman. But Ansel considered her a cheap woman.
Ansel spread his shoulders, and he passed from where he stood to walk out of the house. He is lazy at home, surely later he will often see Drabia. He spent time in the office.
Initially, upon hearing Ansel would be willing to marry her. Drabia thought Ansel would accept her as a wife. Considering Ansel has been a good man all along. In fact, Ansel was forced to marry her, because of her father's request.
