STEADFASTNESS OF LOVE
Silent Annisa

"Darling, what are you doing? Why not eat? Mom and dad ask you!" cecar Fathan to Annisa. At first glance Fathan saw Annisa turned his head, then refocused on his laptop. They saw their little son sleeping. Fathan approached the little guy, he sat in his bed.

Fathan looked up at Annisa who kept focusing on her laptop. Annisa's attitude these few days is a little strange. He rarely gets together with his family. Annisa's more alone in the room. Every time we eat dinner. Annisa is always looking for excuses, just to avoid eating together. It wasn't just Fathan who was aware of Annisa's change in attitude. Almost the whole family felt the change. Especially Hana who felt that there was a distance between herself and Annisa.

"Darling, why are you quiet? I'm talking to you!" fathan said again, Annisa continues to focus on his laptop. Fathan heard the voice of Deheman Annisa. No other words came out of Annisa's lips. Fathan is increasingly anxious about Annisa's change in attitude. Fathan approached Annisa who kept looking down at her laptop screen. I don't know what Annisa's doing? So he was so indifferent to Fathan.

"Darling, what's wrong with you? Don't make me worry about your silence. Tell me what's got your mind stuck? We're spouses, there shouldn't be any secrets between us!" fathan said seducingly, he crouched down in front of Annisa. Fathan gently clasped Annisa's hand. Then pull her hand and kiss her gently. Annisa looked at both of Fathan's eyes. Different ages, sometimes making the distance invisible.

"I'm not the one who should be talking, but you. I never kept any secrets. Instead you are starting to be dishonest to me. I'm just a weak, ordinary woman. In this city I live alone. Far from parents and siblings. You and your family are my only support. If you were getting tired of me. Tell me honestly, God willing, I can take it for granted!" annisa said softly, Fathan was speechless to hear Annisa's words. His body suddenly shook without Fathan noticing. Fear of the lies he's done. They immediately haunt him.

Annisa kept silent seeing Fathan her husband bowed in lethargy. Annisa shies away from family and Fathan. Just to cover up the pain. Annisa did not want others to see her wounded heart. Betrayal is not ordinary. But without proof Annisa can't accuse Fathan of guilt. Instead of remaining silently wounded, it was not something Annisa deserved.

Annisa always tries to understand everyone in the Prawira family. As a daughter-in-law, Annisa has always been polite. As an older sister, Annisa tried to understand the anxiety of Faiq and Vania. As a wife, Annisa seeks to understand Fathan's spoiled and childish nature. But as a mother, Annisa could not stand still accepting defeat. At least he had to fight for the sake of the son born from his womb.

"What do you mean by saying that? I don't understand what you really want to say!" fathan said evasively, Annisa smiled cynically. Nor does he know, what really happened? It all depends on the honesty of Fathan. Annisa is not a person who blames without asking questions or the exact truth

"What do I mean only you know? The secrets you keep, you should know it yourself. Again, I say, be honest with me. Before I honestly accepted it too late. Today I was able to save my tears. My emotional restraint and anger. Just so I can see the truth that I believe exists!" annisa said, then stood away from Fathan. Annisa sat on the edge of the bed. Look at the sleeping son.

Tears and smiles of Annisa now only exist on the plain and shady face of the son. Annisa's heartache is only she can feel it. There will be no tears. As long as Annisa could still see the son's shady face. Fathan is further confused by Annisa's attitude. No words, but as if to imply extreme pain. With a gontai Fathan step out of his room. Moving away might make the two calmer. Then

"Well, if you think not eating is right. I won't force you, because I'm sure you're capable of mature thinking. Don't forget, our son needs ASI from you. As a mother, you should have understood that more than me!" fathan said firmly, he came out of his room with an upset heart. Anna heard a long sigh.

Fathan walked out of his room. He did not understand the direction of Annisa's conversation. So far Fathan has never made a mistake. Her marriage to Annisa was fine without any quarrels. Even her marriage relationship with Annisa seemed bland. Annisa's maturity makes her act too independent. Fathan never felt needed.

Fathan walked towards the second floor balcony. The place that Fathan and Faiq always visit. When their hearts are broken. Balcony facing directly into the backyard of Rafa's house. There is a garden that Rafa deliberately made for his wife Hana. A mini swimming pool that Rafa created, for his sons when they were little. A place where Fathan and Faiq always remember the past.

"Coffee!" said Faiq while offering a cup of coffee. Fathan looked towards Faiq. He received a cup of coffee from Faiq. With lethargy Fathan sipped coffee made by Faiq. Both of them looked towards the page. Remembering the memories that happened between them in their childhood.

"Thank you, your coffee is still the same. I could never make it this good!" fathan Lirih said praising Faiq's coffee. Faiq smiled at the compliments of his brother. Although they were not as close as childhood. But the blood relationship between them remains. Blood that made them feel the pain of each other.

"Without knowing it, our relationship is actually drifting away. But our blood remains the same, so that any distance between us. It won't get us away. Misunderstandings that once existed, could not be able to make us split. As for Annisa's sister, she's your wife who was born with blood and a different disposition from you. It won't be easy to make him understand your character and character!" said Faiq casually, while sipping his coffee. Sontak Fathan turned to Faiq. The look on Faiq's face, not as flat as he said. The meaning implied in the words of Faiq is very deep.

"What do you mean? Don't play puzzles with me. I heard Annisa speaking. Now you are speaking unclear. Maybe you can understand Annisa, because you have the same person. I am not the one who lives in a cold world. Feeling comfortable without anyone else. If you want to talk, let's say don't convolve!" fathan said annoyedly, Faiq shook his head. He understands Fathan's easy-emotional nature. Behind his potent attitude, Fathan personally is easily upset. When what he wants is not fulfilled.

"Your frustration, is nothing more than your weakness of understanding and understanding Annisa. Be aware before it's too late. Annisa's the woman who's been with you all this time. She's the mother of your son. Annisa's the woman who accepted your faith without asking much. Trying to understand yourself and your family. All the goodness you should not ignore and think your relationship is bland. As someone who loves him, it is not appropriate that you seek comfort from others!" said Faiq coldly.
