The Aisyah Love Pier
Back to the Ship?

Akmal walked out of the room with his belongings while several employees were attending the meeting, including Zafran.

"Akmal," called a woman, making the man's footsteps stop.

Fashionable and sexy dressed woman now mempermiri Akmal. "I can help you get back to work here, even I will make you have a high position in this company, so long as you want to qualify."

Akmal fluttered in his place, not even looking at the woman beside him.

"Make me your wife, it doesn't matter if I'm only a second wife, because then I'm so happy to be back with you" she said slowly.

Akmal laughed heartily at the request of the woman who was none other than Via. "I'd rather be fired than have my wife. I LOVE MY WIFE VERY MUCH and for whatever reason, I won't cheat on her." Akmal pressed his words without staring at Via and then stepped back to leave the woman without turning his head again, making Via clench his hands strongly in annoyance.

The car Akmal was driving now arrived at his empty yard because Aisyah had gone to school. The man stepped foot and laid his body for a moment on the sofa of the family room.

"I'm sorry Aisyah, I'm not a good leader, I'm even unemployed at the moment" he said.

Not wanting to stay silent in the slump, Akmal made several job application letters for him to submit to several companies that were looking for vacancies. The man took off his suit and drove his car to several companies.

However, until the afternoon, he still did not find a company that wanted to accept it, and all their words were almost the same, "why not apply to a company engaged in shipping alone?"

Not that he did not want to, but he felt so heavy if he had to leave Aisyah for a long time, not necessarily Aisyah allowed it. Moreover, he was also a little afraid of undergoing a long-distance relationship like last-then.

Akmal parked his car when he arrived at the courtyard of the house where Aisyah's motorbike was already parked there. Long enough he stayed in the car, until the sound of the knocking of the car glass resuscitated him from the daydream.

"Aisyah" said Akmal when he saw his wife waiting outside the car. The man immediately opened the car door and went out to see his wife.

"Assalamu 'alaikum, dear," he said as he extended his hand towards Aisyah and was immediately greeted by the woman while kissing the back of her hand.

"Why were you inside for so long, Mom?" aisyah asked as Akmal kissed her forehead and immediately hugged her.

"Mas, what's wrong with you?" asked Aisyah again because she did not get a response from her husband. He was about to take off Akmal's embrace to see his face, but apparently the man did not want to let go of the hug.

"Let it be like this, dear," said Akmal, who increasingly tightened his embrace.

Not wanting to ask any more, Aisyah returned the husband's embrace while gently patting his shoulder, hoping to calm the man down if he had a problem he could not tell.

After feeling a little calm, Akmal let go of his embrace and tightened his forehead with Aisyah's forehead.

"You know I love you so much?" A nod of the head from Aisyah. "I'll never leave you, baby. Please don't ever leave me no matter what happens" she said, again nodding her head.

Very felt Akmal's breath on Aisyah's face, even the longer the man closer his face, making Aisyah more embarrassed and mixed uncomfortable because she was in front of the house despite being blocked by the fence.

"Don't be here well, a lot of people see it" he said.

Akmal smiled and then took his face away from his wife and embraced the woman into the house.

-

"Here's the tea, Mas." Aisyah thrust a cup of jasmine tea that still reflects smoke on the table, the smell of jasmine that is so typical in Akmal's sense of smell makes him feel relaxed and calm.

Akmal slowly sipped the tea while closing his eyes enjoying the pampering taste of the tongue and warming his throat.

"Darling, there's something I want to tell you" he said after putting the cup back on the table.

Aisha brought her seat closer to her husband. "Tell me, Mas. I'll listen."

"Is there a problem until Mas is fired?" ask Aisyah.

Akmal was speechless, he really did not know if he should tell Aisyah about the source of her problem or not, he just did not want her to feel guilty.

"Mass?" reworked.

"Somehow, maybe they saw my inappropriate educational background at the company" he replied dishonestly.

"What is your educational background, Mom? I can help you find a suitable job."

"Sail, Honey."

"What?" Aisha was surprised. "What does that mean that if you work in the shipping field, you'll rarely come home?" Akmal nodded weakly.

Aisyah's face immediately paled, imagining her husband would live far without her as if making her heart a little afraid, afraid that what she had experienced would be repeated.

"What's wrong with you, honey?" akmal asked as he looked at Aisyah just silently with a pale-looking face.

"I ... I will prepare dinner first," said Aisyah immediately left Akmal in the living room.

Akmal stared at Aisyah's departure while giving a rough breath.

--

The night after dinner, Aisyah cleaned all the eating furniture she and her husband had just used. However, apparently only his hands worked but his mind floated thinking about his fate if he had to return to live far away with his husband.

Her heart was so unprepared to be separated from her husband this time. It was not that Aisyah did not trust Akmal's loyalty, it was just that her past trauma really scared her to open up the same path as she used to.

After she finished her work, Aisyah walked to the second floor where her room was, slowly she opened the door and looked for her husband, but she could not find him. The sound of Akmal's cell phone ringing on the balcony.

"Halo assalamu 'alaikum, Mr. Bagas," Akmal said speaking to someone by phone.

Aisyah who heard a glimpse of the conversation her husband decided to sit leaning on the headboard while checking her phone.

"What's? You're asking me to go back to the ship?"

Aisyah stopped her activity when she heard the word ship, she sharpened her hearing in order to find out what Akmal was talking about with that person.

"I'm sorry, sir, I don't seem to be able to accept your offer this time, I just got married and I can't leave my wife alone at home."

"..."

"Hahah, you can, if for example there is an empty seat, please you just look for another, I can not guarantee until when I can think of this offer of the Father. But anyway thank you sir for offering me a job."

"..."

"Wa'alaikum salutations."

Aisyah quickly positioned herself to sleep on Akmal's back and closed her eyes when she saw her husband had turned off his phone and was about to enter the room.

It felt Akmal rising on the bed and directly hugging Aisyah's body from behind. "I love you, my wife" he whispered as he kissed Aisyah's head, causing her eyes to heat up slightly and began to tear.
