Quiet Wife
13. Wejjangan Father-in-Law

After finishing the bath and changing clothes, Calvin did not find Naura in the room. He had to walk out to find her.

Just opening the door, Calvin was immediately presented by Hermawan, his father-in-law who was tasting fried food and a cup of coffee alone.

Realizing Calvin's presence, a sweet smile then appeared on Hermawan's face. "Calvin's? Just finished a shower?"

"Yes, Pah. Em, where's Naura, huh? I looked in the room, he wasn't there."

A sweet smile seemed to continue to decorate the face of Hermawan. With a flowery heart, he interrupted Calvin to sit beside him. "Here you go, Vin! Naura again on the coast. At least contemplate while thinking of his mother."

Calvin nodded in understanding, while sitting on another sofa, because the sofa occupied by Hermawan is a single sofa.

"You want coffee, Vin? Let Papa tell his wife Mang Ujang to make another one for you," offered by Hermawan, not immediately accepted by Calvin.

"No need, Pah. I'm afraid it's even ngerepotin."

"Cock, nerepotin? You are also a member of this family. You are her husband Naura, my daughter-in-law. Want, huh?" Another Hermawan bargain that is now answered with a thin smile by Calvin.

"By, Pah. Thank you." Thank you."

"Know! Make one more coffee for Calvin!" Hermawan said aloud, which was replied by loud voice also from the kitchen.

"Yes, Sir!"

"Forget. What coffee, Vin?"

"What a hell, Pah." Reply Calvin, who was greeted with a slow throb by Hermawan.

It did not take long, Rani, a young woman who he said was his wife Mang Ujang, a driver, housekeeper and gardener, brought a tray containing a cup of black coffee and several jars of snacks.

"Drink first, Calvin. Sorry, the coffee was just this. Rani forgot not yet nyetok." Saying, politely. Do not forget to be accompanied by a smile.

"No pa-pa. Thanks, yes, Ms. Rani."

"Together."

After it was over, then Rani returned to the kitchen, to continue her activities sorting food ingredients. Oh, ja. Rani is a maid in the Hermawan house who serves as a cook and clean up the house. He has worked here long enough with Ujang.

"Drink, Vin!"

"Yes, Pah."

Silent. Suddenly awkward atmosphere, no more chatter between the two. Calvin was busy thinking about the guilt feelings for Hermawan who had been continuously reaching his chest. While Hermawan, he was thinking about how to start the conversation, but did not immediately ask the core.

Both heavy breaths exhale. Conscious of doing it together, the two then look at each other for a while. It ended with a slow laugh afterwards.

"Actually, Papa wants to talk to you with four eyes, Vin. But ... You don't know where to start?"

Calvin chuckled softly, before he actually sipped his coffee. "Seriously like,"

"Yes. You want to be horrified, don't you, huh?"

"Get in, Pah. The time in-laws themselves talk, kok begurin." Calvin. Being able to make Hermawan again chuckle because of his words.

"Actually ... Papa wants to ask you one thing. If you may know, from when did Naura return to speaking? Dan, what's the cause? Honestly, seeing Naura calling Papa's name earlier, Papa was surprised! In fact, it feels like Papa peng nangis while mentioning the name of Papa's late wife earlier. Papa was so happy to see Naura as before. Honestly, Papa misses Naura's sweet voice."

Indeed, the words of Hermawan made Calvin more curious, with what had happened to Naura. Especially when looking at a pair of Hermawan's eyes that turn glazed.

"To be honest, I haven't done anything to make Naura what she is today, Pah. I didn't know that Naura wasn't really mute. I was shocked when he asked for my help. But, I try not to ask at length with him. I'm afraid if I ask, I'll open Naura's old wounds."

"Thus ... Naura who first asked for help with you, so until now she continues to talk? To anyone?" Hermawan's astonished gaze, answered by Calvin's nod.

"But Naura doesn't talk to just anyone. He was just talking to me. To Mama and Papa, that was Naura just tried a little before leaving here. Mama also seems shocked, but like Papa, Mama does nothing but smile happily." Light Calvin. Just then, a sigh of relief came out of Hermawan's mouth.

A second of hope that he had been continuously proposing, it really existed. His daughter, whom Hermawan thought would no longer speak after all the heartbreaking events that happened, in fact today, Naura is back to being the Naura that used to be.

Although it was only a little, as long as Naura wanted to, she could do anything. Most importantly, he was open to his family. Including Calvin, her husband.

"Thank you, yeah, Calvin. In the past, Papa had hated you for desecrating Papa's only daughter. But now, it seems like Papa shouldn't hate you anymore. What ... do you love Naura?" The sudden question made Calvin hesitant for a while. His heart beat twice as fast, especially when thinking about Hermawan's question about, does he love Naura?

"I ..."

...****...

"Naura!" Calvin runs up to Naura, who is seen daydreaming on a wooden swing on the coast.

Realizing that someone was listening, his head reflexes looked back. A smile that was too sweet then appeared on Naura's face.

"Mas Calvin why are you here?" The smile grew even more, just as Calvin arrived before him. Scooping as much air as possible, after being tired enough he ran towards Naura.

"Back, yuk! Rani's mom is ready to eat malem." The constant answer from the headband that Naura showed, made Calvin spontaneously furrow both eyebrows.

"Why?" Realizing that there was another empty swing beside Naura, Calvin sat on it.

"Still peeping here. I miss the atmosphere of the house. I haven't played here in nearly two months. And the air is still the same." Naura Bright. He secretly glanced at Calvin who was staring far away at the waves and the sea the sky began to be reddish orange.

"Hm, Nau!"

"Yes?" Calvin, again made Naura look so enthusiastically.

With attention returning to Naura, Calvin asked, "In your eyes .. How am I?"

"Hm .. good?" Naura answered, but her pronunciation sounded more like a question.

"Doang?"

"No!"

"Watch?"

"Again?"

"Beautiful?"

Damnit damnit! Naura may praise Calvin who is trying to be serious. Her ears are very hot today. With a pounding heart, Calvin tried to stay calm, even though his ears looked like a ripe tomato.

"Ekhem. Keep going, is there more?"

"But! Nothing, it's over."

Oh my goodness, Nau! It was also made to fly, it was told to crawl again. Thankfully, darling.

"A little bit."

"Ck. What's up, anyway? Suddenly it was so. Yeah, confused!" Naura folded her arms around her chest. His feelings were suddenly arrogant due to Calvin who continued to demand more.

"Yes, nanya doang, anyway. Can't you?"

"Can't!" Naura said, fierce. His pair of eyeballs deliberately narrowed sharply that were directly aimed at Calvin.

"Why can't you?" Seeing Naura who was emotional because of her actions, Calvin became interested in getting to know Naura more. Calvin deliberately pulled the swing so that his position could be closer to Naura.

"Gee!" Exasperated half-dead, Naura got up from the swing. As he was about to leave, Calvin hurriedly prevented him.

"Where are you going?"

"Back home!"

"Kok, don't you jump?"

There was a long snort from Naura's mouth. "Yes, come on!"

"Where?" Calvin asked, deliberately wanting to make Naura more emotional.

"Back home!"

"Where to go?"

"Damnah! Go to papa's house, that's right there!" With patience on the edge, Naura pointed to her papa's house which was far enough away from where they were standing.

Seeing Naura's angry reaction, Calvin could no longer help but laugh. "It's funny the expression, ululuhh! My wife is funny bangettt!" Calvin pinches both of Naura's chubby cheeks, and plays them for a while.

Of course what Calvin did, made Naura scream in annoyance. "Damnihh! Calvin Mas! How come my cheeks are pinched?"

"Who told him to have chubby cheeks, funny, like a cat."

"What's? The cat?"

Naura's patience for Calvin. To get revenge for all the strange pinch and call from Calvin, Naura tickles Calvin's body.

Who would have thought Calvin was so sensitive?

"Aw! Nau, what the hell? Amused! Aw!"

"Who told Calvin to bummer? Pinch the cheeks of random people, where why do I like a cat again! I retract my words about Mas Calvin being kind, considerate and handsome."

"Huh, can't do that! Was the rope pulled? Aw! Nau!?" Overwhelmed by the atmosphere, Calvin pulled both of Naura's hands, right in front of him. Making Naura's body which is quite tiny when juxtaposed with Calvin's body, also attracted forward.

At that moment, Naura, who was still laughing because she had succeeded in teasing Calvin, immediately fell silent in a thousand languages. Both of his eyes glared. In fact, his throat suddenly felt dry for some reason.

"Hm? Want more tickling? Swing around! Whichever is better, your hands or my lips."

At that instant, a pink hue again adorned Naura's face. "What the fuck? Le-go!"

"No! Apologize first,"

"Yeah, I'm sorry! Release, please!"

"I'm not sincere about apologizing. Again, again." Tell Calvin, deliberately put on a serious face, but in his heart, Calvin is trying to hold back laughter.

"Sorry!" Naura said, still trying to be patient. Afraid that Calvin would steal a kiss back on his lips.

A slanted smile was then clearly on Calvin's face. Unfortunately, that smile made Naura shudder, if at any time, Calvin would do something strange.

"Yes already. But in exchange, I want something."

"What?" Naura asked, her voice sounded so small it was almost buried by the sound of the pounding waves.

Without saying anything else, Calvin let go of Naura's hand without her noticing. Afterwards, mischievously, his one hand pulled Naura closer and closer. And the other hand was raised to lift Naura's chin up a little.

Without waiting any longer, Calvin dropped his kiss on Naura's lips.

Opium. That one word seemed to dominate Calvin to continue to taste the sweet taste of Naura's lips that made him addicted. Once you try, you want to keep doing it.

As if not satisfied enough just sticking each other, Calvin bit the lower lip of Naura, making his mouth open even a little.

The opportunity!

"Dw ... Calvin-hmph!"
