Prison of Love
Candidate Wife Hengky

88

Does the rainbow just keep coming out nonstop? Surely not, right? But why do my eyes keep seeing the rainbow when I look up at the sky? Why do my ears hear the sound of car horns crashing when stuck like the sound of a little bird singing? And my heart, continues to recite the rhythm of shahdu.

I'm getting married soon. Just a few days.

Oh my God, do you believe that? I'M GETTING MARRIED!

Everything I touch, everything I do is easy. The Abaya design I can do at once for five series, my content turns to be more cheerful, and they say, I look more beautiful.

Happiness brings its own aura, a special aura.

I can't wait for tomorrow. When the day changed, when he received a call from Hengky, when he heard that he was on his way here.

After the last two weeks, Hengky finally came home. He invited me to fit the wedding dress as well as see the house he just bought yesterday. But this time we are not both like before, Hengky invited Mom to participate.

“It feels more thrilling when this relationship really we keep her chastity. You know what I mean, don't you?” hengky said on the phone.

I who pretended not to understand ended up hearing him say, “Don't spoil the peak of enjoyment by stealing his moment, Naya. I patiently waited for four years, why now become impatient just waiting in a matter of days?”

Ah, I remember what Andy said when he said goodbye yesterday. Andy was deliberately looking for a gap to talk to me. As he gets it, he tells me passionately that he and Hengky over the past four years are starting to improve as much as I do. In fact, according to the story, Hengky had canceled an important deal with one of the best meat suppliers just because his schedule collided with the schedule of his favorite Ustadz study.

Andy was upset at the time but Hengky assured him that God would replace him better. And sure enough, the interval of two days, other suppliers come with better meat quality and cheaper prices.

From then on, they really changed. And I can see that from their attitude. Their eyes are more awake. Andy who usually likes to spread the charm, yesterday looks very different. He did not once turn his gaze toward his cousin, the female employee who had indeed from the beginning had showered him with a gaze full of admiration.

They said, if they look at Hengky, it is just as futile because Hengky is already mine, but whether they get confidence from where, they believe if their eyes can melt Andy.

After Andy asked me to talk for a moment about going home, they even huddled behind me just to make Andy aware of their whereabouts.

Oh my...

I tried to hold back the laughter of seeing their behavior at that time.

“Mbaak... That's your prince already coming!”

Gina's voice with laughter roused me from daydreams, “Please call Mom yes, Gin.”

When he went to the living room and saw Hengky sitting on the sofa suddenly as if he was flowing a warm feeling in the chest. As he smiled, I could not help the crimson hue that met on my face.

“H-Hai..”.

Duh, what did I say?

“Assalamualaikum, Wife Candidate.”.

Oh, my God, I'm melting...

When we arrived, my mouth was gaping without me preventing it. If it hadn't been nudged by Mom, maybe saliva would've dripped from my lips.

“Come in, Mom, Naya..” said Hengky gently while turning the doorknob.

“Masya Allah.. you really choose his house, Son.” said Mother while entering the house, “This stuff you also choose yourself?”

“Iya, Mom. According to Naya's favorite color, white color. Actually Hengky bought the land a long time ago, Mom. But just collected the money recently to build his house,” explained Hengky still with a smile.

“When did you buy the land, son? Not that your business still requires a lot of costs?”

Hengky scratching his head that does not itch, “Buy the land honestly wages from Hengky's work in Papi company, build his house whose money from Hengky's current business.”

“Wah, it's been a long time since you were the prophet, son? How long does it take?” I don't know why I asked something unimportant.

“Actually this is from the last month's wages before Hengky built his own business, Bu.”

“Ah, one month's wages? Buy this land your wages for a month? This is where the land is so expensive, son. Last to the knowledge of Mother of five hundred millions,” Mom's eyes glared in shock.

Hengky looks confused how to explain if in fact his wages are more than that, that in fact his Papi company can generate turnover of up to hundreds of trillions. He laughed instead of answering my questions.

He politely guided Mom to look into the room that Mother had not seen, distracting her to focus more on observing the contents of the house.

I was still left at the door. Still can't believe that my dream home is now in sight, now mine.

“Where? You like?” ask soft Hengky. He walked up to me towards the door, “Come in..”.

Hengky once asked me, if I want to build a house, I like what kind of house. Is it a classic luxury type like his parents' house or a glamorous one like his papa's mansion?

While glaring I replied, “I like a simple house. With four rooms in it. One room for me and my husband, one room for my son later, one room for guests and one room for housekeepers. No need for two floors, just one floor. With a spacious backyard and uh, you know the shape of a house of antiquity?”

At that time Hengky confusion, “What kind?”

“Form of a classic house of old. With a little touch of a stage house but not a stage house. There is a classic European touch but not entirely. Shades of white, spacious backyard and a small fish pond to unwind while looking at their cute behavior.”

Hearing my explanation Hengky even laughed, “Your explanation is really very very unclear huh?”

But look now, how could he possibly understand what I meant back then?

When I just arrived, I saw the appearance of a classic European-style house but with a stage terrace in the style of an ancient Indonesian house. House with the concept of letter L with a pointed triangular roof, large windows and many, as well as additional natural stone on some walls. In addition, there is a tower or pillar near the main door further adds a classic touch of European style.

What makes it unique is the gate that is shaped like a large wooden house in the style of a simple house in Europe. It looks very neatly arranged with a garden filled with green grass.

Hengky solved my attention. I looked into his eyes, almost saying how great he was who could understand my intentions but immediately stopped when he heard him say,

“See? Without you to explain, I understand your wishes. Tell me, what I did not know about you? (Tell me, what do I not know about you?)”
