THE OWNER OF MY HUSBAND'S HEART

THE OWNER OF MY HUSBAND'S HEART
Do You Know or Are You Looking for a Reason?


The atmosphere of the cafe was quite crowded. The strategic location of the cafe makes the place often visited not only by employees, but also by students.


It had been five minutes since Neva came, but silence still prevailed among them. The dragon fruit juice ordered by Neva was presented two minutes ago.


"What's up, Dek?" that thread of Fatih's sentence ended up being a lonely breaker between them.


Neva smiled, then stirred up the juice and sipped it before replying. "Good grandfather, as you can see. But the feeling is not okay, if you can be honest, since the news of the marriage brother 10 years ago." said bitterly with a downcast face staring at the glass of juice that has been left a little in front of him.


Fatih momentarily froze, trying to guess what this woman in front of him meant.


"Why has the number of the brother blocked since two years ago?" asked Neva again while looking at Fatih's face.


His ex-girlfriend is still the same, not much has changed. Stay handsome and like him to look at, just growing up his appearance.


Fatih cleared his throat awkwardly. " Don't intentionally depressed menu block, Dek." he replied.


Neva chuckles softly. " Won't you know what time it was, Bang? At that time we often communicate, morning, day, night. Brother time is not aware and do not think why a day just do not contact brother?or, you don't want to ask first why Adek didn't call brother?" he chuckled again, "try to find a reasonable reason, Bang." he continued.


Fatih sighed softly. "Did know that my brother is married, right? Brother just didn't want brother's wife to misunderstand and we had a fight. Moreover, he also knows that adek is a former lover brother." he explained.


Neva stared fixedly at the man in front of her. "But there is no need to block adek number, just chat brother and tell when brother is with brother's wife, adek will not disturb" he said.


Fatih lifted her face, looking at the woman in front of her. The woman who had filled her heart for three years before they were finally forced to separate when the love was still in their hearts. Yeah, forced, because Neva's parents don't like her.


"But yes, now we have met again, and very happy. Adek misses, misses very much with brother." continued Neva again as he grabbed Fatih's hand and held it on the table.


Fatih looked at Neva for a moment before finally smiling and returning the grasp. " Yes, we haven't seen each other in a long time, haven't told each other. Where do you live now?" he asked while sipping his coffeelatte after unraveling their hands.


"In town Y." answered Neva briefly.


"After graduating from school and hearing that my brother was married, I went wandering, looking for work and trying to treat a broken heart" he continued, laughing.


Ah, Fatih's fascinated. This woman was always beautiful in her eyes, or whether because the taste was still there, so she always felt captivated by just the sound of her laughter.


"I'm sorry Brother, Deck. Adek knows kan_


" yes, yes. Adek knows that actually brother does not intend to hurt adek. Adek knows that our relationship broke up first because of good parents. Adek apologized, Bang, for all the attitudes and harsh words spoken by the parents adek." between Neva while again reaching for Fatih's hand.


"Yes, my brother has forgotten all the attitudes and words of parents adek to brother first. Seeing the adek happy and continue to live better even without a brother, brother is already very happy." replied Fatih while again mngeratkan grip their hands.


They looked at each other for a moment and threw a smile. Then continue the conversation until finally parting ways when Fatih's lunch break ends.

The sun had started to slowly move towards the western horizon when Nara exited the office building where she worked. He glanced at the watch that was coiled in his hand. It has been 4 hours past a little, the office hours are indeed 4 hours every Monday to Friday, unless there is a meeting or sudden work that must be completed on that day.


Nara saw her phone, since speaking this morning at home, Fatih had no contact with her as her husband used to do every day. Never mind calling, just sending whatsapp messages, nor does the man do it today.


'Ah, just let it go. Even if he sends a message, I will not reply.' inwardly.


Nara then stops a passing taxi to go home.


"Assalamualaikum" said Nara, opening the door when she arrived at her house.


"Waalaikumussalam, Mommy." Nice look running to greet and kiss his hand followed by the eldest behind his sister.


Nara was stunned, her husband had not come home yet. She did not see her husband's car in the garage.


"Maybe it's still on the road, Bang. In the afternoon, the road is jammed. The mother had come home by taxi, but if you have to wait for the father to pick her up." kilah Nara gave an excuse to her son.


"Bak's home yet, Bang?" ask again.


"Udah, Bun, just recently. Sri Mbak wanted to wait until the mother came home, but brother said it was okay, take sri back home. You see, his eldest son called, he said his sister fell off the bike." replied Bagas at length while following his mother who had stepped into the kitchen.


"Ohh, that's. Hopefully his son is not hurt too badly yes" said Nara while drinking water that he took from the dispenser.


"Mother go up first to the room, brother and adek soon take a shower. Ashar, right?" ask again while staring at the eldest child.


"Udah, Bun." replied Bagas briefly.


"Yes, befriend me first in front, soon take a bath, Mommy wants to take a shower too." said Nara while stroking Bagas' head before she stepped towards her room upstairs.


Almost maghrib when Nara heard the sound of Fatih's car stopping outside the house. He was accompanying his children to watch television while waiting for Maghrib time.


"Assalamualaikum" Fatih said as he stepped inside.


"Vaalaikumussalam. Dad, just got home?" the youngest Bagus asked as he stood saluting his father followed by his brother.


"Yes, I have a job to do today, so I am late to go home" Fatih replied as she glanced at Nara who looked indifferently staring at the television in front of her.


Fatih continued the steps up the stairs to the main room, her body was sultry and she wanted to clean up immediately.


Shortly heard the adhan maghrib reverberate, Nara ordered his children to pray and he stepped into the room to perform prayer as well.


Fatih was leaning on the head of the bed when Nara opened the door and entered the room. He turned to the bathroom for ablution. Fatih looked at his wife who was heading to the bathroom without even seeing her. The woman was still in an angry fashion as it turned out, she thought.


A few minutes after performing the prayer, Nara intends to head to the kitchen to heat the side dish for their dinner.


"Ra." rebuked Fatih stopping Nara's movement which would have opened the door to get out of the room. He felt uncomfortable sitting in the room longer with Fatih.


"You're still mad at me, Ra?" ask Fatih.


Nara remained silent without even looking at it.


"Udah dong, Ra. How will the children if they know we are fighting and being quiet like this. I'm not comfortable with this kind of situation either, Ra. I'm sorry if Mas was wrong." continued Fatih again with a tone as smooth as possible.


Nara let out a long sigh before turning to look at her husband.


"I'm not angry, I'm disappointed. Angry and disappointed is different, Mas." replied Nara as she leaned against the door of the room with her arms crossed over her chest. "Now I ask you, how do you feel after meeting your most beautiful ex in person?" tanyanya sarcas while observing Fatih's face.


Fatih froze and turned her attention carelessly in the direction. He has not understood his feelings for Neva since they met again.


" You can't answer. Don't know the answer, or are you looking for an excuse to cover up your true feelings?" asked Nara again after a long time Fatih did not respond.


"Udah ah, Ra. Don't look for a theme to fight again. Come to the kitchen, the children may have been waiting at the dining table." replied Fatih as he moved out of the room past Nara.


Nara shook her head slowly with a claustrophobic heart. 'You made me even more in disbelief, Mas.' she muttered bitterly at the back of her husband who stepped down the stairs.
