The Lives of Five Hundred Thousand
Swim

Not long after the waiter returned to our table while bringing a special chair for children.

"Sorry, mba, a little while!" said the waiter while putting a small chair for Zain to sit on.

"It's okay mba. Oh yes this is our order." Raihan gave a note of the food he ordered. The waiter took the paper offered by Raihan and saw it. The waiter looked round his eyes to see the contents of the paper was not what he saw so he looked surprised.

"Well, ma'am, wait a minute!"

I smiled while Raihan nodded. Raihan sat Zain in a small chair beside him. While waiting for the order to come Raihan tagged Zain while I only noticed their familiarity while occasionally smiling.

Ten minutes later our order arrived. There were three waiters who came to our table and each carried a tray of food. They began to put dishes filled with food on the table. I was astonished to see the number of menus on the table.one basket of rice, Grilled fish, krispy squid, oyster saos squid, large prawns of pasture saos, krispy shrimp, virgin clams, green clams, and so on, crab, shellfish, tofu flower, salmon soup, two glasses of orange ice and three bottles of mineral water.

"Please mas, mba!" said one waiter.

"Thank you mba," Raihan replied while I was just smiling.

"What are you Rai.why so many messages we just eat together you know! it's a waste of his name Rai..!" I nagged after all the waiters left our table.

"I don't know if Nuri likes to eat anything so just order everything" Raihan replied calmly.

I had imagined how much money Raihan would have to spend to pay for all the food at this table.

"Mba don't worry, my money won't run out just to pay for this mba. Yes already mba, yuk at the meal do not just look at it."

I obeyed Raihan's order to eat the food on the table, besides my stomach was very hungry.

"Well if this salmon soup is specifically for Zain, Zain eat salmon so that it grows healthy and smart," said Raihan and then feed Zain. Zain looked ravenous once eating salmon soup - a food that Zain had never eaten before.

"Rai.Let me feed him."

"Just eat, let Zain feed me."

"But Rai..!"

"Nothing but but mba, mba Nuri is hungry right?"

I fell silent and continued eating. While chewing I watched Raihan who was feeding Zain with

affections. I was so moved to see Raihan who cared about Zain's nutrition, that he ordered a special Salmon soup for Zain. Though the day Zain I feed him with soy sauce but if I have new money I buy Zain eggs. If only my husband had behaved like Raihan who loved and cared for Zain, I might have been happy. As soon as I remembered my husband, did he come back to Jakarta or was he still waiting for me at home?" But the thought was immediately clear because for now I am still upset and do not want to remember Surya mas.

Raihan feeds Zain slowly until his salmon soup runs out. After feeding Zain Raihan began to eat so many dishes. We ate in silence and occasionally Rai glanced at me who was eating while looking down.

"Eat a lot ya mba, let plump like the first time I met mba."

I smiled considering the first time I met a high school boy who fell off his bike. At that time I wanted to go home from work and accidentally saw a boy in a school uniform fall from his motorcycle and I helped him and treated him. And who would have thought that the high school boy I helped was my own neighbor, Hajah Fatimah's son. After that incident Raihan often played to my house or visited me at work because of the coincidence of the distance between his school and my workplace close together. But after I got married I never saw Raihan again either because I was busy taking care of the child or he was busy at school so I just met back when I helped his mother cook at home.

"Are I really skinny, huh Rai?"

"Yes mba, so skinny..!"

I pressed my lips to hear Raihan's reply. Does my body look so thin in Raihan's eyes? it is natural that I am thin because I rarely eat and rarely eat nutritious food.

"But stay beautiful..!" then she smiled while looking at me.

"Bombing you Rai?"

"No, it's true that Nuri is still beautiful as before."

"Already Rai.don't keep fighting, just spend the food first."

Twenty minutes later we were full. There are still many foods that we have not touched because too much makes me unable to eat them.

Raihan called a waiter and the waiter approached us.

"Can we help you?"

"It's a whole meal please wrap it up and I order some more salmon soup."

"Okay, wait a minute. Oya for the transaction....!"

"I just pay here mba, I'm lazy way to the cashier my stomach is full."

The waiter smiled." Okay, wait a minute, mas."

"The total is one million three hundred and seventy thousand mas."

I was surprised to hear the waiter mention the nominal money that must be paid by Raihan. One million three hundred and seventy thousand prices for the food we order and for one meal. While I was given a living of five hundred thousand for one month by my husband. Raihan took out his debit card and made a transaction.

"It's over, yuk out." Raihan held Zain and brought the food that had been wrapped and we walked outside the restaurant to the car. After in the car Raihan invited me to find a mosque to perform Dzuhur prayer first and I agreed to Raihan's invitation. Then Raihan drove his car out of the restaurant area looking for a mosque or mosque around.

The time had already shown at half-time by two noon and we stopped at a city mosque to pray first. After that, Raihan invited us to play a waterbom ride. Zain was excited to see a large swimming pool. Raihan brings Zain into the pool while carrying a duck buoy for Zain to ride. I just watched them from the pool. Looks Zain very happy to be invited to swim by Raihan.

Raihan approached me who was sitting by the pool and suddenly he pulled my hand until I fell into the pool which was the depth of Raihan's chest and limited to my ears. I had a hard time swimming besides not being able to swim and my hijab made my body feel heavy to float up.

Raihan grabbed my waist and slightly raised my body until I floated and could breathe. I pinched Raihan's sixpack belly in the water until he felt a pang and then grabbed my hand so I stopped pinching him. I was annoyed at Raihan who arrived to pull me until I went swimming with him even though I myself could not swim.

"You have the heart of Rai, I can't swim what if I drown."

"Losing with Zain is mba, Zain can swim."

I saw Zain riding a duck he looked really happy.

"Do you need to wear a duck like Zain so you can swim?"goda Raihan's.

"Do you think I'm Rai's little boy?"

"Ha.ha.mba will not drown while she is beside me."

I just realized that my waist was in Raihan's embrace until I lifted up.

"Rai.lepasin Rai..!"

"Relatedly? how about drowning?"

"I'm going to go upstairs to Rai !"

"Mama cini aja belenang cama Zen!" Zain chattering.

"No, Zain asked to swim with his mother." Raihan brought my body closer to Zain. Zain stretched out his hand and wanted me to hug. Be us swimming and joking in the pool until I feel cold and ask Raihan to stop and take me to the edge of the pool. Raihan followed my wishes and he took me and Zain to the edge of the pool. Raihan helped me up the edge of the pool and lifted Zain up and gave it to me. After that, Raihan came up to the pool and immediately I was stunned to see Raihan's perfect athletic body.

"Why see me like that? look out you will like it," teased Raihan with a ignorant smile.

I looked down at my red face. It was so shameful to be caught by Raihan that I was watching him.

"Wait a minute, ma'am!" Raihan walked towards the car park which was located quite far away. I noticed Raihan's departure and it turns out that Raihan is being the center of attention of people he crosses especially women. How not to be the center of attention, Raihan's face is very handsome, clean white and tall body strapping with sixpack stomach. Perfect as Raihan.

Raihan came back and approached me who was hugging Zain from the cold.

"It's mba..!" Raihan thrust a paper bag of size is quite large.

"Is this Rai?" I asked while grabbing it in Raihan's hands.

"That's a towel, toiletries and a change of clothes mba Nuri and Zain."

"Well, when did you buy all this Rai?"

"Mba magic results!" raihan replied while grinning and scratching his nape.

"Yes, quickly change pity Zain is cold."

I no longer think long because I myself am too cold. I carried Zain to the bathroom and brought Raihan's paper bag. After the bathroom I cleaned Zain's body first and put on a new shirt that Raihan bought.

After that, I cleaned my body and put on the clothes that Raihan bought. I noticed that Raihan's dress suit looks really good and fits right in my body. And I'm sure the clothes I wear are expensive if you look at the quality of the materials and models. Still a question mark for me when did Raihan buy clothes for me and Zain?

Late in the afternoon, Raihan drove his car home. Zain fell asleep in my lap from exhaustion and he had not taken a nap. Raihan took me towards my house but when he arrived at the front road of the house and Raihan was about to turn I saw the Surya motorcycle still in my yard and Surya mas who was sitting on the terrace while playing his phone.

"Straight on Rai..!"

"Why mba? isn't your husband waiting?"

I looked towards my house, Surya was watching the car we were riding in and was stopping by the roadside.

"Quick get out of here Rai!"

"Good mba!" Raihan followed my wishes and then he drove back to his house.
