Not the First
At 23:45

Rey turned her body, now their position is facing each other with a distance so close.

Rey stared fixedly at her husband's eyes, then grabbed his hand and brought it to her chest so that Wibie could feel the firmness of her heart.

"Sorry, Sir. We've never been dating. We met married a few months straight. I don't even know your side yet" Rey tried to give an excuse.

"Hmmm. Sir again,"

Rey simply smiled, this time laying her head on her husband's chest.

"sorry. Yes dear," Rey said correcting the call to her husband. A red hue reappeared on both of his cheeks.

Wibie stroked Rey's left shoulder gently. Rey is getting so nervous. It felt as if the hand that was still tightly holding his hand was trembling smoothly.

"The first time I saw you. When I was able to take you to Jakarta until I finally asked you to be my wife was it not enough for you to know my side of my heart? If you're not sure, why would you marry me?"

"When you first saw me? When's that?" ask Rey seriously

"When it rains" Wibie replied briefly.

Rey remembered something. In the foreign man he met at the stop and the voice he felt familiar when he met Mr. Wibie on mess 105.

Rey turned her body back. He looked at that face again.

Still in doubt about his vision, Rey covered the mouth until Wibie lived with her hand. Only her eyes could be seen by Rey.

"That friendly gaze is mine" Rey half-whispered.

Rey smiled thinly. It turned out that his conjecture was correct, but at that time he was too tired to connect one event with another.

"A question that still brings up a question in my head at that time. You're wearing a helmet and a mask worthy of a motor driver. But I can't find a motor parked there?" ask Rey curiously.

Wibie just smiled. He didn't answer that question correctly.

"God sent me as a guardian angel for you. So that the curves of your body that are clearly visible from the clothes that are soaked do not invite evil. I'm not waiting for ready. I'm getting out of that place as soon as you hang in that brown questionnaire,"

"Ah, so sweet once you are," Rey smiled and shrugged both of her shoulders.

"Then do you love me?" tanya wants certainty.

His face was getting closer to Wibie. Rey wants to find out everything she wants to know from the expression she's going to mean herself.

"When I propose to you and you accept me, that is love. So why is it still being questioned?"

CUPS......

One gentle kiss landed on Wibie's cheek. He smiled at Rey who suddenly became so spoiled for him.

Wibie hugged the woman tightly and stroked her back gently.

"Sleep, it's too late. Tomorrow we'll take Dad and mom to the airport,"

Rey pulled her body from Wibie's embrace and lay down beside the man.

Wibie stretched her arms out until Rey remained in her arms.

"Sleep, I'm so happy tonight. I will protect you until death do us part" whispered Wibie inwardly.

Unceasingly Wibie stroked his wife's shoulder. Rey doesn't speak anymore. But Wibie can confirm if his wife has not slept.

He still felt Rey's right leg shake violently. A sign that he has not gone back even though his eyes have been closed.

Maybe Rey does not know if Wibie can read this habit since they slept one room in the hotel at that time.

******

At dawn, Rey was still asleep. Still on the side of Wibie, but the position is not comfortable to enjoy.

Both hands were raised upwards like one who had surrendered in battle and both feet were wide open.

The blanket covering his body was almost dated. It's been shifting towards her husband all.

As vast as the mattresses they occupied, Wibie could only occupy no more than a quarter of it. It's amazing Rey's style when she's asleep.

"What kind of position is this? Only this time there are women who sleep so violently like this," said Wibie in his heart.

Since last night Wibie couldn't close his eyes. The minutes that passed by were so quick for him.

He used the opportunity to think about how he would keep this woman by his side forever by his side.

Wibie is still so afraid of what happened four years ago. He was abandoned by the woman he loved so much.

"Rey," called Wibie so quietly in his wife's ear.

Wibie pulled out the hair covering his wife's face. In this state of flux, he saw Rey as perfect. Her beauty is natural without polish.

Wibie brought her face closer. Gently peeked at his wife's cheek.

"Rey, wake. It's dawn" he called. There was no reaction.

Usually no one beats Rey in the morning. He always wakes up on time.

"All right!" wibie's mischievous smile began to expand.

Wibie held Rey's chin gently and whispered softly in the girl's ear in a seductive voice.

"Reyna," while blowing on her earlobes.

Rey, who was awake but pretended to be asleep, became tense and her face red as soon as she felt the subtle call of an adult penetrating her hearing.

His heart was pumping faster, his body was limp and heating up.

Wibie smiled seeing that reaction. Now he knows that Rey is actually pretending to be asleep.

Cup..cup....

Shower the tiny lips with a million kisses good morning to the beloved angel.

"You woke me up" said Rey, pretending to be awake.

"That's a new kiss. If you don't get up, I'll catch you until you don't breathe" Wibie threatened with a mischievous smile.

"Yes, I haven't even washed my face. Why did you kiss me so early?" ask Rey.

"That's not a kiss. But a kiss,"

"Oh, the difference," asked Rey hesitantly.

Wibie brought her face closer, but Rey immediately confronted her with her palms.

"Yes.iya. I'm up,"

"I went down first. I want to check the kitchen! Is there food for us to eat breakfast," said Wibie while leaving Rey who was still lying on her bed.

"Don't forget to wash your hair. The smell was getting musty," cried Wibie again.

He deliberately lied to his wife so as not to have too much suspicion when they had to meet face to face with Rey's family at the dinner table.

******

At breakfast, Wibie finds investigating faces and a strange smile from her father-in-law.

Wibie understood the meaning of their views, because she had experienced something similar to the name Devara when she became a newlywed.

But this is the new thing experienced by Rey, he who is still so innocent almost without expression to see the full gaze of inquiry from his family.

Rey seemed oblivious to all eyes looking at her still wet hair.

"How did you sleep, son?" ask the father about his daughter.

"Yourn. I'm so tired, Dad. It was almost bad luck" Rey replied honestly.

My context of the word "weary" which is captured by others is different in meaning with the intent that Rey uttered.

Dad just smiled knot. Mom and Nay just shrugged both shoulders. Another case with Doni, this innocent child is not interested in their chat. He was so happy to enjoy his breakfast.

"I'm sorry, I didn't have time to make breakfast this morning" Rey said plainly. He greedily ate the breakfast even though all eyes were still on him.

"Thank you, Nak Wibie, who has been bothering to prepare breakfast for us" I immediately apologized when I found out that the child will provide breakfast for all of them.

"It's okay, Dad. I'm used to doing it. Just make fried rice. This side dish leftover from yesterday's dishes stayed heated in the microwave," he explained.

"Rey makes drinks and prepares dishes at the table" he added.

Mother did not give any reaction. Since the bagub sleep he only kept silent in the room although Dad repeatedly reminded to go to the kitchen. Help Rey prepare breakfast.

"I'll be visiting. Sometimes indulging and being served. Enjoy life," thought the mother in heart.

"The plane leaves at 11, we'll be ready by 9. Working days like this are hard to predict, we better wait there than miss the plane, said Wibie.

"Yes, son, thank you" said Dad

After that they enjoyed a breakfast of fried rice made by Wibie without anyone making a sound again. After finishing his meal, Rey immediately cleaned the table and cleaned the kitchen.

They spend time together in the living room while enjoying a cup of coffee and morning news.
