Sharing Husband Part 09
Author: Ersu Lonely Room
The breeze cradles the milk, hugging the recesses, the sky cradles every footstep, creating warmth under the scorching sun.
I realized that my closeness to Alex had to be fortified by distance. But why do small incidents create, closeness without barriers.
I immediately threw this body out of Alex's arms.
"Bane peels are impolite make people slip," I grumbled.
Fortunately, my babbling was invisible and inaudible to people, because it was blocked by the veil I wore. The journey continues, silence is created. Alex, unlike before who joked with Risa, is now silent without a word. I was also caught in a frozen silence. I melt the silence.
"Ec ... Kirain you want to go back to Turkey again, it turns out now want to settle in Indonesia huh?" I asked, without looking at Alex who was seriously driving.
He did not respond to my question, either unheard or there was something else he was thinking about, so unaware of my question, for the second time, I repeated my question.
"So you want to stay in Indonesia?" ask again. Little scream.
"What! Oh ... He is my father now, decided to live again in Indonesia, because his wife also now agrees if he moved to Bandung," he replied.
The long journey Jakarta - Bandung, finally arrived, I was welcomed by his parents Alex, and also my parents who had arrived first at the home of his parents Alex.
The warm atmosphere was created when Risa and Alex's younger sister sang while playing the piano.

Mas Ilham told me that he would return home from Malang tomorrow. He also said if there was time he would follow to Bandung. But I forbid him to follow, because tomorrow afternoon we will go back to Jakarta.
That night the inauguration of the restaurant owned by Alex's parents was opened very lively, which carried a middle east menu.
My mom and dad look so familiar with Alex's parents, first because my dad can be as successful as he is today because of the help of his parents Alex, that's the story I got from Dad. And when Alex's parents went bankrupt and divorced, it was my father who helped Alex's father, until he was successful again and married a Turk, so that's why it's not just a friend but like a brother.
"Son, why don't you tell Umi the same story, if Ilham and Sakila go to Malang?" ask mother lirih.
"It's okay Umi, they're only a week away, tomorrow they're home again" I replied.
"But at least if your husband is not around, you stay at Umi's house" my mother said.
"If I stay at Umi's house, the pillow at my house will cry" I said, making my mother laugh.
"Tante, let's try a special menu at our restaurant," Alex asked while holding my mother's hand.
Shortly after, Alex came back to me.
"Please don't approach me in less than two meters!" I was the one who made Alex stop his steps.
"Davira, what if I'm the same distance you're less than two meters or less than an inch?" ask Alex, in a furious tone.
"Because it's not good, which is not too close, muhrimnya" I replied.
"Why are you? I'm just close, don't mind you!" yell Alex while pulling my hand.
"Let go!" Excuse me, while shaking Alex's hand.
Some eyes looked at me, and some whispered, and some whispered, and some whispered, saying, "Maybe it's his wife or his fiancee," and some said, if the son of the restaurant owner has not been married. It's not my fault my fear, is it? They think that Alex and I have a relationship, but they don't.
I walked over to my parents' table, to avoid Alex coming over. After the event we went home to Alex's house was so big, yes, the new three-story house was so big and luxurious like a palace.
I slept with Risa, while Rio was with Alex in his room. I changed clothes in pajamas, while Risa was busy cleaning her makeup with cotton, giggling to see the video she recorded while at the restaurant.
"Sister, I noticed Alex's sister during the restaurant her eyes never turned away from Davira's sister" chirped Risa, which made me cough.
"Risa! you're the origin of the talk."
"Right sister, I noticed it that way, even a few times I saw, although he chatted with others but his eyes continued to pay attention to brother Davira. Em. .. What else if Alex sees a brother like this, without a veil, I'm sure he'll be more stunned. Wear a veil is still stunned." said Risa, making me want it feels like to visit my beautiful sister.
"Risa! Stopit! that shit ain't funny!" seruku protested his increasingly sloppy remarks.
"Sister, better divorced brother than Mas Ilham, after all Ilham even fun with his new wife who sucks, mending same brother Alex, already good looking again," said Risa, chirped Risa, which again makes me even more anxious to pinch it.
The atmosphere of the night in Bandung, cooler than Jakarta. Ah it feels really comfortable, put tired on the pillow.
Night crept into silence, silence ruled the night, my eyes reluctant to shut, many times I earned my salary, just to see Sakila's post with Mas Ilham. They are so happy, spending time together. Then ... I was, too, a hanimun that will never be forgotten in my life. When sipping sweet honey wedding. My neutr is glazed.
"Davira, are you asleep?" I saw a chat coming in from Alex.
I closed my life without replying to her.
Ting ... sound back.
"Why just read doang? You haven't slept, have you?" ask her.
I shut it down and I turned off my phone so he wouldn't bother me anymore.

My mother and father were busy looking around the plants in Alex's yard to ask for some kind of flowers that were there. While I, tidying up the small suitcase I brought, because in the afternoon we all go back to Jakarta.
"Sister, said you want to come to west Bandung first? You want to buy a bonsai for a friend?" ask Rio.
"Umi's coming too?" my many.
"Umi's not coming. Only Risa is the same as me coming," Rio replied.
Ok, I decided to come with Dad, rather than later be disturbed by Alex, can be good?.
Return home from west Bandung 14:05. immediately prepare to return to Jakarta. I'm in my parents' car now.
Dad tidied up the plants in the trunk of his car, crowded.
"Om I'll drive home Davira just like Risa, anyways Om's car is full so," said Alex who approached the father.
"Duh, yeah Lex the stuff's too full in the car, but it's okay you're dropping off Om's kid?" ask Dad.
I have to be with him again.
I got into the car and told Risa, to sit in front. Aman, I'm not too close to that guy.
Risa karaoke ria. I choose to close my eyes only to dismiss a shadow, the shadow of Mas Ilham who never went from my eyelids, soon I will meet with my true love, there is a longing that multiplies, there is a longing, I really miss my man, I'm sure Mas Ilham misses me too.
Suddenly my phone rang, a call came in from Mas Ilham.
"Assalamualaikum, Mas" I said.
Mas Ilham said if he had reached home, I can't wait to get home, but the streets of Bandung are so jammed on weekends like this. I hung up the phone, smiling.
Astagfirulc ... Whisper my heart, when I realize someone is watching me from the front view. Why don't his eyes stop looking at me? There was a sense of ration when Alex was endlessly staring at me.
"Sister, is this a camera?" risa asked Alex, while taking the thing.
"Eh ... Ris, don't move, he said.
"Why are there cameras here?" search Risa.
"It's nothing, it's just a broken camera that I put on display" he replied.
"Ec ... Bo'ong the camera guy's on!" exciting Risa.
What does Alex mean by keeping a hidden camera in his car? I don't want to be too dizzy about it, right now I just want to get home.
Risa asked Alex to drive her home first, but I forbade her. So Alex can take me first.
***
Alex arrived at the mobile home in the parking lot in front of the gate. I dropped off my little suitcase with Alex to help me. Risa does not want to stop by first she remains engrossed in the car playing her android.
Somehow my clothes stuck to the plant next to the house, so that my steps were interested and about to fall, Alex swiftly held back my body that almost fell onto the asphalt.
"Oh ... So this is how you do when you're away from me?" hardik Mas Ilham who made my heart half-dropped
