Reaching the Moon
Chapter 49

...Sometimes fate feels so cruel at the beginning, wounds and tears do not escape to accompany. Things felt so stifling to the chest and made the heart so fragile. However, never forget, everything that happens in this world is always followed by wisdom. Good or bad, it all depends on how you're grateful. Beautiful or not, it all depends on the way you receive....

Earlier, the,

That night, Nizam came out of the rented house with a feeling of anger mixed with disappointment. He had not expected Aura to lie to him to this extent. The man plans to return to B city, but realizes he has no money. Only lowbatt phones are now in his grasp.

Nizam cursed his bod0hannya because it did not charge the phone first before deciding to leave. Luckily, he accidentally saw Diki who had just come out of the hospital with his partner. Not wanting to waste a chance, Nizam immediately ran over to his friend.

"Diki, we happen to meet here" said Nizam with a breath that was wheezing from tired of running.

"Nizam's? What are you doing here?" ask Diki wonder. Nizam also told the incident he experienced to Diki by slightly covering up the reality of Aura. Although angry, he still tried to keep the good name of his little friend.

"Why are you here too? Isn't your office far from here?" Now it was Nizam's turn to ask.

"I'm rising up the ranks, Zam. After arresting Marcel and his accomplice, the central police chief rewarded me by raising my rank and transferring me to the headquarters" Diki replied.

Hearing Marcel's name, Nizam immediately remembered something. "Congratulations to you, Diki. Oh, yeah, what about Marcel? Did you really let go of that time?"

"Yes, we did let him go back then, but we followed where he went. After making sure Marcel gave news of his freedom to Robert, we immediately re-arrested him" Diki explained.

"Thank God, I think you guys really ate their trap. Oh yes, I want to ask you for help," said Nizam.

"What's that?"

"Help me back to town B."

That morning, the rising sun and the warming air witnessed a meeting of halal lovers that was separated for several months. For a moment it felt stopped, only the sound of a heartbeat that was getting along like a rhythmic drum.

The two pairs of neutrals that were wet with tears locked each other, as if they did not want to turn away even for a second. The fear of an unexpected breakup is completely ingrained in the hearts of both.

I don't know who started it, now their bodies are holding each other. Evaporating a sense of longing that has been held back for the past few months. The sound of sobbing began to be heard from the mouth of the Moon, the longer the more clearly heard. It doesn't matter who is paying attention to them right now.

Tears are getting louder and wetting the cheeks. Not only the Moon, but Nizam. The man even now clutches his wife's body behind his thick costume. He could also feel the woman returning his embrace was no less tight.

"Don't go again, please." The hoarse voice of the Moon was heard softly in between the sobbing, making Nizam nod slowly while rubbing the head of the wife so gently.

"Not anymore, my dear. God willing," he replied and kissed the forehead of the Moon with affection.

...

Nizam and Moon walked together hand in hand towards his house. The mascot of the panda doll that had wrapped the man's body had been removed. Now he can walk more freely and feel the warm hands of the wife directly.

There was no conversation between them. The moon just silently stared straight ahead as it continued to walk. Sometimes he turned to his husband as if he had not been so trusting that Nizam had now returned to his side. Not only that, a row of questions had gathered his mind to make the woman confused to ask what first.

After a few minutes of silent walking, the halal couple arrived at their home. The two of them were sitting in the middle room still holding hands with each other. Moon was still silent with awkward feeling, he was also surprised by himself who actually died lice when in front of the husband, whereas all this time he missed the man very much.

"How are you, honey?" tanya Nizam broke the silence between them.

"You knew? I've been scared all this time, worried, even I think I'm going to die! because you miss you ...." The Moon's words came to a halt when Nizam placed his index finger in front of the Moon's lips.

"Sssst, don't talk like that!" nizam said then pulled the crying Moon back into his arms. "Finishing the explosion, I was in a coma for a month. Aura took me to her hospital in city A to be treated. After I realized, I actually had amnesia for several months. I'm sorry, honey. Now, you don't have to be afraid and worry anymore. I am here and will always be with you until God says 'come back to Me'."

Nizam patted the Moon's soft back which shook from crying. However, in the next second, he began to realize something different than usual. Immediately he let go of his embrace with the Moon while holding both of the woman's shoulders.

In the face of the Moon's face soaked by tears carefully, there was no sign of anxiety at all that the woman showed. There was only a livability and longing that emanated clearly there.

"You don't feel anxious about getting repeated touches from me?" nizam asked, making the Moon immediately stop her crying and then look at Nizam.

From the look of his eyes that are slightly confused, it can be seen if the Moon is also just realized that. Slowly he reached out his hand touching Nizam's hand for a few seconds, then released it. The woman repeated the same thing again on Nizam's face, then turned to the neck, to the chest and down to the stomach with a wrinkled forehead.

Seeing the behavior and appearance of the wife's face that was so funny in his eyes, Nizam could not help but smile happily. "Are you making sure of something or are you taking a chance?" asked the man to look at the face of the moon.

Hearing Nizam's question, Moon quickly pulled back her hand with a red face blushing like a boiled crab. "Ma-mas must be thirsty and hungry, right? I'll prepare the food first" he said stuttering and then immediately got off the sofa and was about to leave. However, her hand was blocked by her husband.

"Wait a minute, you haven't answered my question." Nizam immediately pulled the body of the wife until the woman sat on her lap.

Again, Nizam examined the Moon's facial features carefully. There was no anxiety, no fear, only shame, awkwardness, and wrong behavior that emanated from the beautiful and shady face of the wife.

Alhamdulillah

Nizam contemplated exalting happiness and gratitude for the Moon changes that can now be declared healed.

"Ma-sorry, Mom. Why are you looking at me like that?" asked the Moon without daring to look into Nizam's eyes.

"I'm making sure of something and now I'm sure that you're healed, baby" Nizam replied without hiding his happy smile.

The moon fell silent, to be honest he did not expect the change, but in spite of it all, he also felt very happy. "Alhamdulillah," said the woman softly as she gave a smile.

Just contact it, Nizam immediately stood up while lifting his body ala bridal style. The startled moon reflexively wrapped her hands around her husband's neck.

"Ma-mas, I'm heavy, you know!"

"Just calm down, honey. My body is muscular, lifting you up is easy for me." Nizam twisted his body so lightly that it made the Moon tighten his embrace even more.

Satisfied with expressing his happiness, Nizam immediately walked out of the living room without lowering the Moon.

"Mas, where are you going?" tanya Moon was confused.

"You are asking you to break your fast, dear," replied Nizam complete with a blink of an eye that made the Moon increasingly clueless.

"Open fast? You fasting, Mas? Now is not the time to break the fast," asked Moon so innocently that Nizam stopped his footsteps.

The man then whispered something in the Moon's ear that again managed to make her beautiful face red.

"Sorry, Mas. I don't really understand the term that leads there because it's my first time."
