That evening, after Isha's prayer and Rahma and Irsyad's dinner went into their room, Rahma took off her hijab and removed her hairband, he looked at a mirror attached to a wardrobe that was not too big.
"My hair is so thick." Rahma grumbled as she held onto her waist-long hair.
"Why deck?" ask Irsyad. "So pretty anyway, Rahma's deck hair is nice."
"Yes good, but not like now, since the hijab, Rahma's hair so unkempt." he said, Irsyad also showed his smile shook his head.
"Here sit near the mas."
"Don't want aahh, Rahma is still upset about that?" rahma.
"So?" Irsyad. "Astaghfirullah, who did Aida mean? So ade's really jealous huh?" ask Irsyad.
"It's not jealousy, but Rahma doesn't like it, I smile too much at other women."
"Yes, that's his name's jealousy."
"Isshh was jealous and disliked it differently."
"Yes yes, different vocabulary, but the point is the same." Irsyad chuckled, and Rahma murmured.
"This is Rahma's deck, Ruri's brother had once saved the lives of the mas while bathing in the river" said Irsyad.
"Saving?" Rahma turned to Irsyad who was sitting on her bed,
"Yes, so it used to be when the age of 14 years old, that time again sadranan if the Javanese say, where if one day before ramadan, one day before Ramadan, we santri will bathe together in the river to welcome the arrival of the holy month of Ramadan." Irsyad Rahma approached Irsyad and sat down next to him.
"Then?" ask Rahma who is interested.
"At that time, suddenly the river was flooded and the mas was still in the middle of the river, mas had not had time to save themselves like other friends, so that the body of the mas swept by the swift current, and, and lucky Abah Ruri's garden is on the river's lips, and the young man who saved the mas. Eating since then Abah Ruri mas regarded as grandfather, as well as adoptive father mas." Irsyad explained, while Rahma was a little fixated on hearing the story from Irsyad, if only there was no one to help her husband, maybe Rahma would not meet Irsyad.
"Dad?" Call Irsyad. Rahma looked over, too,
"Why silence?"
"No, Rahma was just a little touched" he said. Irsyad smiled as he rubbed his head.
"And as for Aida, Ade doesn't need to be jealous huh. Because love is only for Rahma really." said Irsyad while touching Rahma's nose with her index finger. Without answering anything Rahma went up to their bed and spread her body, with Irsyad who then covered Rahma's body and kissed her forehead.
"Mas out first for a while on deck, there is a sholawatan event in the assembly" said Irsyad, Rahma nodded with Irsyad who then moved out of their room.
For a moment Rahma thought, why did her heart feel afraid when she met Aida earlier, The feeling seemed unpleasant. Rahma immediately dismissed her bad thoughts and tried to close her eyes.
****
After two days and three nights in Magelang Regency, they returned home. Now both are in Jakarta because Irsyad began to have lectures in several assemblies, and again he also had to teach Monday tomorrow because his retirement was over.
That night in their room, Irsyad had just entered after going out to attend a tahlilan event at their nearby neighbor's house, which invited Ustadz Irsyad as a performer. He saw Rahma lying down while playing a cell phone when the time had shown at eleven o'clock at night.
"Why haven't slept, it's been a night not good to play the phone until this late darling" said Irsyad.
"Yes Rahma knows, it's just this, the hospital where Rahma worked has given news that Rahma's leave is almost over tomorrow Rahma must return to work." said Rahma who then sat down, Irsyad also grabbed Rahma's phone and read the message, then handed it to Rahma again.
"Sir, just resign? It's a long time to go to Palembang again" said Irsyad.
"Rahma also thinks like that, especially the hospital will definitely remember Rahma to someone" said Rahma with a blank look. Irsyad understood that the person Rahma meant was a man who was supposed to be her husband. Cuuppphhh Irsyad peeping Rahma's cheeks.
"Sleep at night yuk." invite Irsyad who immediately lay down Rahma's body, which at that time made Rahma gasp in shock.
"Mas, this is not the time yet" said Rahma who was afraid that her husband would invite her to have sex.
"Yes, I know dear, although I really want to but I will hold it" replied Irsyad while hugging Rahma.
"Ade not asleep yet?" ask Irsyad.
"Rahma has not been able to sleep, still thinking something mas." said Rahma.
"Think what? Let's tell your husband this."
"not important."
"Lying, it must be important, right? Let's just tell the deck." said Irsyad. Rahma also breathed.
Mas?" Call Rahma.
"Yes baby?"
"May I ask?"
Irsyad smiled "of course Rahma, what would she ask?" Asked Irsyad while propping up his Head with his Kiri hands.
Rahma was silent for a moment. "Mas know Rahma like this attitude sometimes likes to be angry, and always grumbling but why did you never get angry at Rahma? I should have been disappointed in you, because Rahma never even did homework, couldn't cook, and again? I always wake up first from Rahma." said Rahma. Irsyad rubbed Rahma's head.
"Where can mas angry at you dear, yes maybe mas a little feel there is less than you because it's all, but as mas say right? If the mas loved you Rahma, and again Rahma always tried to obey even though she continued to grumble but was happy because she still did it." said Irsyad, Rahma also turned to look at her husband.
"Thank you for accepting me, and thank you for being willing to patiently educate me" Rahma said with a smile. Seeing Rahma's Smile, Irsyad pounded even more, he approached Rahma's face and landed a kiss on her forehead.
"Mas wants to ask, did you love me already?" asked Irsyad shortly after releasing it. Rahma was silent for a moment, while looking at the face of the man next to her
"Maybe" he answered.
"Why maybe?" ask Irsyad.
"Yes it may be because that night, since Rahma received an inner living from Irsyad mass, it feels so different" replied Rahma softly without looking at Irsyad hiding her reddened face, Irsyad smiled, and smiled, he was a little teary, it felt more excited when Rahma began to love him.
"So right, if the behavior of ade who suddenly angry when there are female worshipers who approach mas, it is because ade jealous?" ask Irsyad.
"Yes, that's right. What else lately mas is popular among teenagers, many young women who upload Vidio mas lectures on social media." said Rahma while grumbling. While Irsyad also chuckled he pulled Pipi Rahma with anxiety, so a little upset Rahma while hitting Irsyad's hand to release him.
"mas is Habit." said Rahma shortly after Irsyad let go of the pull, with a laugh that made Irsyad rub his eyes slightly wet. Irsyad slightly lifted his body and kissed Rahma's forehead again, not only did both of Rahma's cheeks get it as well, after which Irsyad looked Rahma's eyes deeply.
"Berati mas don't need to wait another week dong?" ask Irsyad.
"Ma... Meanin?" asked Rahma while gulping.
"Would you like to have a baby soon, when you still ask?"
'Aaahhh, for some reason, I felt sorry after expressing my feelings to her.' Rahma who then pushed Irsyad's body slowly.
"It's almost twelve o'clock, mas know Rahma will be difficult to wake up so we better sleep." said Rahma who then tilted her body back to Irsyad with her eyes closed she tried hard to fall asleep immediately.
Irsyad's hand lifted and touched Rahma's shoulder while rubbing it slowly, when Rahma's eyes opened.
'Mas, please don't ask me to serve you tonight, I'm still nervous to know.' Whine Rahma in heart.
Irsyad sighed, "don't turn your back on the deck, it's a sin to sleep with your back on your husband." Hearing that Rahma turned her body suddenly, while Irsyad was still behind her exactly, that also made Rahma accidentally kiss Irsyad's cheek. With her eyes round Rahma sat up, Irsyad touched her cheeks while smiling happily.
"Cieeee Finally, ade wants to kiss the mas first." ledek Irsyad.
"Yaaaaa... What the hell is this talking about?" Rahma moved, she felt embarrassed, so she finally decided to waltz into the toilet in her room.
"Oh Allah from Rahma here, I still want to." Irsyad cried with laughter, Because seeing Rahma's behavior that wave really makes him more anxious.
