Quiet Wife
15. Both Streets

Calvin's phone on the bed rang. Calvin, who had just entered the room at the same time, grabbed the phone.

"Hello, Mah?" Without any intention of waiting longer, Calvin immediately picked up the phone call from Fani, his mother.

"Where is it there? It's safe, isn't it, Vin? Where's naura?" Fani's carousel sound is quite jarring, making Calvin spontaneously slightly keep his phone from the ear.

"Faith, Mah. Just calm. Naura again waiting in front of the house, already making sure to walk."

"Oh, huh? Yes, later mama phone again, yes. Tell Naura, Mama kangen,"

"Didih, just also semalem, already missed again."

"Dadooh! Anyway, champagne, don't want to know! Naura was already considered as Mama's own biological daughter. My mom loves Naura. Watch out, yes, Vin, if you're sick with Naura! Mama slash your neck!"

"Astagfirullah, Mah! Horrified to play free? Without Mama's sweat, Naura wouldn't have hurt me."

"Yes, yeah, yeah! Believe it! Yes, Mama hang up the phone. Bye!"

"Hm. Aye." Yeah."

As Fani said, the call was immediately cut off with him alone who turned it off. When he was done, Calvin walked out of the room, putting his phone in his pants pocket.

Arriving in the courtyard of the house, Calvin was treated to an unusual sight, where the look on Naura's face looked so frowning with both hands folded in front of the chest.

"Kok, long?"

"Mom just called, so I picked up first,"

Naura's sullen face instantly disappeared upon hearing her mother-in-law's name called by Calvin.

"Oh, huh? Mama said what?" A thin grin began to re-adorn Calvin's face. Unfortunately, that grin again made Naura shudder in horror.

"Cie, kepo! You want to know, do you want to know?" Nosily, Calvin poked Naura's nose until he made her hiss.

"Ish, what the hell, anyway? If you don't want to tell. Don't care either!" Naura Pungkas. When he was about to pitch first, Calvin prevented him.

"Yes, yes, sorry! No more nosy. That, she said mama misses her daughter-in-law." Calvins light up, trying not to provoke Naura's emotions.

Come to think of it, why lately Naura is often emotional, huh? Cepet scowl, pouty. Hm .. There is something strange.

"Oh." The original answer from Naura, was greeted with a faint smile by Calvin.

Gently attentive, Calvin grabbed Naura's hand, then linked their fingers together. This made Naura look up at Calvin.

"Come, he said to go for a walk! Where were you going first, huh? Wanna get a car, or a motor-"

"You're on foot. Just roving around here doang, kok, why use all vehicles." Sela Naura, still with her pouting face.

"Yes already. Where does my wife want him to go?"

Pink bursts adorn Naura's cheeks after hearing Calvin calling her an unusual call.

Wrong, Naura turned her head to the side, to hide her feelings.

Unfortunately, Calvin was already aware of Naura's behavior. Deliberately, Calvin poked Naura's cheeks while occasionally smiling meaningfully. "My wife's salting, huh? Stances ... Like, yes, she called 'my wife' the same handsome husband?"

"What the fuck? I-I'm not salting! Just ordinary!" Unfortunately, Naura's stammering tone of voice explained everything.

"Oh, huh? Mana, look at his face!"

"Wouldn't! Later teased!"

"Said not salting? If not salting will not be mocked, seriously!"

"Ck, iihh! Yes, I salting! Satisfied?!"

Enough already! Calvin was no longer strong enough to hide the hue of laughter on his face. Especially after hearing the confession from Naura who still kept hiding her face.

Geez! Gini, yes, it feels like dating after marriage?

"Ekhem. So the road isn't, is it?" Feels like enough for today, Calvin decides to focus on the core.

"Yes, be!" Reply Naura, still did not want to show her face in front of Calvin.

"Yes, come on! I am jajanin to be satisfied!"

...****...

Not noticeably, time has shown almost noon since Calvin and Naura walked around the coast. Buy this, buy that. Eat this, and eat that. Sometimes, Calvin would secretly photograph Naura busy with his own world.

Good though. As her father-in-law said the other day, Naura had long since shut herself down. In fact, he never had fun after and was this free. Naura was never once seen laughing again after the heartbreaking incident.

Calvin wanted to make Naura better. Calvin wants Naura to be more open, not just to Calvin and his family. But on everyone.

Like a while ago when Naura wanted to buy ice cream. The woman returned saying nothing, and only gave Calvin the code.

Maybe, the atmosphere was crowded by people passing by. And perhaps, Naura still could not really open herself up to the outsiders.

Long breaths began Calvin exhaled. His focus, which was staring straight at the dreamy-looking Naura, now turned to his phone.

There are several photos of Naura that Calvin took without his knowledge. However, Naura still looks beautiful from any angle.

"Nau, you got IG?" Calvin's gentle voice, then awakened Naura from her various daydreams.

Had thought for a moment, Naura shook her head while smiling faintly.

"You want me to make it, don't you?"

"I want to post a photo, the story wants me to tag you."

"Oohs. Yes, yes!" Naura handed her phone which was not given any lock. Calvin happily accepts it and starts fiddling with Naura's phone.

Because he was already kepo, Naura shifted his seat closer to Calvin. The focus of his pair of eyeballs is on his phone screen which displays a list view of creating IG accounts.

No need to wait long, the IG account created by Calvin was completed. However, Calvin has not handed the phone to Naura. Calvin still faithfully fiddled with it.

"That's ... has it settled?" Naura asked, occasionally glancing at Calvin who was so diligent with his activities.

"Udah."

"So, does it want to be flanked again?" Ask Naura again.

Honestly, he doesn't understand technology today. On her phone, Naura only has a WA app. IG'S? It is only today installed and registered by Calvin.

"Post photo." Calvin replied, making Naura reflex to frown.

"Whose picture? I never took a photo." Without saying anything, Calvin handed Naura's phone.

The confused Naura then turned her attention to the screen of her phone that was still on. And, how shocked to see Calvin posting a photo of himself on IG Naura account.

"Lho, is this ...?"

"Where? Her husband is handsome, isn't he? Handsome. Calvin!" Calvin said, making Naura laugh reflex.

"This is who's taking the photo? There's-there's, um, Calvin,"

"That's an old photo. Taken the same Nino holiday time last year,"

"Such a look, my goodness!" Naura still doesn't think. Calvin could still keep a picture of himself with a rather annoying look.

Yes, maybe at first glance there is nothing wrong. But, try it, pay close attention.

"Cock, rancid? Bull, Nau!" Calvin snatches Naura's phone, while looking deeply at her photo.

Nothing is wrong, really! Maybe, photographed Calvin looks really cool. But, why?

"Yes, yeah. Nothing is wrong, though. My husband has a bangettt!" Naura said, still with a faint laugh on her face.

"Speaking his handsome cake is not sincere. Watch out for malem!" Threat from Calvin, reflex makes Naura distanced her sitting position while crossing both hands on the chest.

"What else would you like to do with malem?" Naura asked, her cheeks were once again heating up with an unruffled heart.

Calvin's sharp glances, accompanied by his face leaning right into Naura's face, left Naura cornered in place. "Nas Calvin ... what do you want?"

Gluey!

Not long after, Calvin laughed. He quickly returned to his original position while reaching for his phone.

In Naura's deepest heart, she was deeply ashamed at this moment. I don't know why Calvin's getting so annoying in Naura's eyes.

"Let's look at the IG again. I just tagged you,"

Lazily, Naura again reached into her phone that had been placed in a hurry. While trying to scroll, suddenly his pair of eyeballs widened. His attention then returned to Calvin.

"This ... when?"

"Don't know. When, huh?" Calvin replied, then blinked one of his eyes.

Naura no longer spoke or replied to Calvin. The focus of both eyes seemed to be on his self-portrait in IG Calvin's post.

"Thank you." Naura said, slowly.

I don't know why it sounded so piercing in Calvin's ear. His chest suddenly throbbed in pain after hearing Naura's words. Moreover, plus a thin smile that Naura showed interrupted staring at her portrait.

"Some of it came,"

"Oh, huh?" As if struck by what Naura was daydreaming about, she hurriedly opened the comment icon.

As Calvin said, his photo that was just posted a few minutes was immediately received a variety of comments, especially from Calvin's friends.

Naura quietly smelled her smile reading the comment. "Mas Calvin's victories are unique, aren't they?"

"Unique from where? They're on that taffy, ngeselin again." Feeling no more answers from Naura's mouth, Calvin again glanced at Naura who was still busy reading the comments that came.

"Ck! Don't mostly look at hape, not good!" Calvin spoke spontaneously, making Naura again aware of what she was doing.

Naura hastily turned off her phone. "Sorry! Finally, who comes to weird. Some commented, he said not willing to marry Calvin first. Must be one of Mas Calvin's admirers on campus. Yeah, right?"

"Where do I know? I'm not a fish?"

"Ck, iihh!" Naura snorted softly at Calvin's perfunctory reply.

"Udah, don't sulk. How about a tour again? Eating meatballs whose sauce is spicy, as good as it is,"

"Kneel!" Naura's enthusiastic response, involuntarily took Calvin by surprise. Not long after, Calvin rose from his position following Naura who had stood first.
