Rapa & Cleona: Keeping the Heart
135. For Everything

“You why since you came home from the hospital pouting mute?” rapa asked as soon as the two of them had gone inside the room to rest.

“Gak nothing.”

“I know, behind the word okay a woman means there is nothing. I'm sensitive, honey. Here's my same story,” Rapa shifted her seat to be more attached to her beloved wife. “Remember, I'm your husband, and between husbands and wives there should be nothing to hide.”

Rapa let out a long sigh, then changed position to face his wife who was still reluctant to open her voice. Only the woman's gaze was fixed on his eyes, as if he was looking for something he wanted to get.

“Wife know not what is the reason people out there are many separated?”

“Because of lack of money shopping.” Cleona replied without thinking. One flick Rapa slowly gave to his beautiful wife's forehead.

“Why is Queen in Sentil? Is it wrong?” tanyanya innocently while rubbing her forehead which was hit by Rapa's flick.

“Not wrong, but not right. There are many reasons that make couples separate, especially husband and wife. The cause is simple, just a communication,”

“Why is that?” Cleona raised next to her eyebrows.

“Dishonesty and absence of openness. It makes communication between husband and wife less, and not a little because the trivial problems that cause a very big impact.”

“So I mean brother, if now Queen does not want to open, brother wants to divorce Queen?” accuse Cleona in a fiery manner. Another flick Rapa gave and now quite strong, made Cleona complain of pain.

"KDRT!”

“Abis brother upset, your thinking is short.”

“Yes that Queen digested from the explanation brother since the beginning,”

“Yes, but that's not what you mean, baby. Brother as your husband, does not want to make you hold any problems alone. As you said with Nia, that brother feels to be a reliable husband with you. So, whatever is a burden on your mind, please share with brother, let brother be more useful to be your husband. We've been married for over a year, although it's still fairly new, but still me and you have become us, becoming one. That means your problem has become a problem brother, your sadness has become a sadness brother, and happy you have become happy brother.”

Cleona's eyes glazed over the words of her husband, moved and Cleona was so grateful to be the wife of Rapa Pratama Dhikra, a handsome man in front of him who always makes him feel loved by his words and actions are always sweet.

“Help,” Cleona stretches both her hands with adorable face like a child. Rapa of course welcomed it happily and immediately approached to hug his beloved wife. Kiss after kiss Rapa gave, before then leaning his wife's head on the chest of her field, and Rapa sat beside Cleona leaning on the headboard.

“So now you want to tell me, you why frown since you came home from the hospital and met Nia?” rubbing Cleona's head, Rapa again asked gently. He is not calm if his wife is still hiding her problems alone.

“Abang,” call Cleona a little look up to see her husband's face.

“What a darling.” Rapa once again gave a kiss on his wife's nose.

“Surely my brother will go ..”

Rapa's reply just made Cleona bow her head again, her face grew more moody and fear was approaching.

“If indeed father asks brother to go to a meeting that can not be left. Brother will definitely leave if you ask brother to go buy soto, siomay and others, but believe me, brother will never leave even if you insist that brother leave you. Unless God wants you to go first, it certainly will never be able to refuse.”

Cleona quickly hugged her husband tightly. “Never talk like that again, Bang. Queen can't do it without a brother. Queen won't be ready to lose the one Queen loves. So, Queen please ...”

“Iya dear, brother will never discuss about that again. Sorry brother, yes?” Cleona nodded and increasingly hid her face in the chest of the husband's field.

“So what do you want Queen to proceed from the question earlier?” ask Rapa who has not been able to guess everything that was in his wife's mind since.

“Nothing, Queen just want to convince the heart that brother will never leave Queen, especially with Queen conditions like this. Honestly, Nia's words were enough to make Queen's heart waver and afraid. Queen is afraid that brother is really burdened with the condition of the useless Queen, which is troublesome because nothing has to rely on brother, even to get out of bed only Queen has to rely on brother.” Cleona's tears trickled down, soaking in the pajamas Rapa was wearing.

“Abang already guessed, Nia's words earlier will affect you a little. But brother please, please believe the same brother. Whatever others say you should never listen to, what else about ugliness. It's brother's heart, dear, it's brother's feeling, only brother knows how it's filling ...,” Rapa pointed at his chest.

“... and you know your brother better than Nia or any other woman, you obviously know the outside and inside of you, brother, because we have been together since we were babies until now we have an adorable cute baby. Please do not doubt brother's love and loyalty!” the twinkle of Rapa's eyes that showed such earnestness made Cleona carve her smile and gave a nod.

“Queen will never hesitate again, Bang, and Queen will continue to believe. But you know, once the trust is wrong to use, then never brother hopes to get it again!”

“Abang knows dear, and brother will try to maintain the trust you have given. Brother will keep trying not to disappoint you, let alone to betray you.” Rapa of course meant it, because after all her love for Cleona was so great and deep. He did not want to lose his wife, the mother of his children, and he did not want to lose the woman's trust.

“Thank you dear brother,” said Cleona ended with a brief kiss on the lips of her husband.

“Thank you for what?” rapa's forehead shriveled confusedly looking at his wife.

“Thank you for everything.”

“Then you are together, and my brother would like to thank you. Thank you wife, for everything.” The word ended with a deep kiss on Cleona's forehead.

“Now we sleep, baby. Udah malam.” Rapa confirmed his wife's position to lie down, as well as her who had felt drowsiness since earlier immediately pulled a blanket to cover the body of both.

“Abang,” call Cleona slowly. Rapa who had closed her eyes only replied with a small deheman. But Cleona who was not satisfied with Rapa's response again called her husband.

“What the hell is dear? Sleep please, it's late at night, and you're sleepy ba-"

“I love you.” After saying that in a soft voice in front of her husband's face that was still closed, Cleona immediately closed her eyes, while Rapa re-opened her eyes, a smile etched on the lips of the two children's man, then reply to his wife's love before then floating a kiss and pulling his wife more into his arms.
