The Charm of The Twins

The Charm of The Twins
98 Gede and Masalunya


That day Qiya and Gede arrived in Bali. Niang Ayu had already prepared one room for them. He wanted the newlyweds to stay in his house a few nights before the event prepared by Niang Ayu.


That afternoon Qiya helped Mother Train cooking in the kitchen. Mrs Ratih could see how her daughter-in-law was so deft in the kitchen. It even looks like he is very used to a tool called a knife.


Even at dinner Niang Ayu had teased Gede.


"You should exercise often Ge. Otherwise you can be fat." Tempta Niang Ayu who ate with lava.


Gede was very happy because Qiya looked so quickly familiar with Niang Ayu and his mother. Niang Ayu used to be coldly impressed with Mayang. Not with Qiya. Even Niang Ayu from the first time they came until night time was still lingering on his wheelchair.


"Niang seems healthy right, ma'am." Said Gede when taking a drink in the kitchen when he saw the happy hue of the Elderly who talked to his wife.


"Niang seems to really like Qiya in addition to her personality, she is also Kyai Rohim's grandson. Where Niang told me many memories with his grandfather Qiya." Said Bu Ratih while storing the souvenirs that Qiya brought into the refrigerator.


Gede also reminded Niang to rest. He took Niang Ayu to his room. Bu Ratih chatted with Qiya.


"Tomorrow to the place where your friend who takes care of your reception. Oya Qiy's. Gede still likes to delirious?" Ask Bu Ratih slowly.


Qiya was immediately stunned, he did not know what to answer was impossible to tell what happened in the room and what he felt.


"Like whimpering, ma'am..." Quite slowly and long Qiya gave an answer.


Madam Ratih sighed slowly.


"From little Gede was very fond in Bully not to mention his annoyance and hatred for his father. He ends up delirious about sleeping." Said Mrs Ratih.


"Astaghfirullah. Then what makes you still say Mayang's name when your lips tell me love." Inner Qiya.


When he finished talking, it began late at night. They also rest a body that is quite tired. But for Gede, there is no time to get bored to shower his wife with his love. He enjoyed the nights with his wife. Qiya is like Ayra's drip. She still serves her husband. Giving something that is rightfully his. A wife who is asked to always fulfill her husband's call while he is halal in gauli.


When he finished fulfilling his obligation. No wonder her husband is sleeping. And the happiness of each wife when able to make the husband feel comfortable, feel happy and can sleep soundly when getting his right. He did not even bother or even angry left to sleep when the husband's wishes were fulfilled. He was happy. She felt she was a lucky woman, because she could pick up her reward through her husband.


After he cleansed his body. He opened his smart phone. He's looking for articles about delirious people, traumatized people. And Qiya that night didn't do her thing. He just sits down to read a lot of articles. Until one conclusion Qiya got from the story of her mother-in-law and the articles she read.


While she can only suspect that her husband has a psychological disorder known as PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder).A fear experienced due to a traumatic event can generally disappear naturally. However, some people can experience trauma continuously to cause excessive stress and fear.


"Yes Allah... You bear a mental burden, perhaps also a grudge for your bitter times... Even your subconscious cannot calm down. Forgive me for being hurt when you struggle to treat the wounds of your life that still imprint even in a new pile of wounds." Said Qiya while sitting on the floor and holding Pipi Gede.


Qiya was finally only able to come to the conclusion temporarily that her husband had PTSD, and her husband needed psychotherapy guided directly by a psychiatrist. Her husband is not aware if he has a psychic disorder because he is accustomed to being a child and stressing himself with the sad story of his life.


"You should go to Psychiatrist Mas, at least it will help you to eliminate your trauma mas."


Eliminating trauma is not easy, but it does not mean that it is impossible to do. Qiya felt unable to do it alone, he would ask for the help of experts, such as psychiatrists or psychologists. She would think of a way to convey that to her husband.


"It turns out, a tabayun, a clarification before feeling right yourself, before feeling all wrong from your own point of view is important." Qiya returned to shed her tears. He cried over the tears that had fallen all this time.


She thinks her husband is playing. But it turns out that the burden of life from childhood actually leaves a deep trauma until her husband's sleep is not sound.


Luckily Qiya was not immediately angry, not immediately railed against her husband with many questions. Gede who experienced trauma and used to soak all by themselves from childhood. Makes the mother a burden and a stress. Not healed in childhood. When adults are given another wound by Mayang. Until almost every night actually delirious Gede sometimes angry, sometimes crying because of his heartache, because of his revenge.


Gede who felt a swab on both of his cheeks. He woke up and saw a female figure who gave happiness and comfort for several days.


"Dec... Why bring it? Have you taken a shower?" Said Gede who saw the sign of the wife was still wet.


Qiya just smiled.


"Why are you crying again? Don't tell me it still hurts..." Said Gede who saw the rest of the tears in the corner of his wife's eyes.


"This time her crying wasn't because of pain. But because I still want to be left asleep...." Whispering Speak Qiya who has moved sat on the mattress.


Gede knitted his two eyebrows.


"Have you just seen an adult movie?" Tanya Gede was curious.


Instantly his cheeks were pinched by his wife and in the bells.


"That's the same as my own wife thinks so...." Said Qiya while pursing her lips.


"Bright. After that. can sem3sum this early in the morning like this...." Tempta Gede again while touching his wife's nose.


"What's? Jal Baleni?" Qiya said raising her pupils with a smile.


"Huh?" Say Gede who does not understand Javanese.


"Try to repeat what you said?" Qiya's words narrowed both her eyes.


"M3...." Said Gede who immediately embraced his wife's body.


By morning the room was a witness and heard the happy laughter of the couple.
