The Regrets of the Child and Husband
PAS 49

Feeling agitated, Amar drove his car home. Amar was not agitated at the thought of Nafisa's words. He really doesn't care about the woman at all. I don't know where the feeling first, every day waiting to meet soon. But now, all those flavors are gone without a trace. Even Amar did not care if he loved himself because what was in his mind right now was Aliyah.

Aliyah was still cold to him. He was also more silent, even just talking to him Aliyah seemed reluctant. Amar was really sad to think about it. And now, Amar was agitated at the thought of Aliyah. He should have been home a while ago, but because of Nafisa's arrival, his return was delayed. Although Amar knew, which Aliyah might be waiting for his return, but still, he wanted to go home soon. He wanted to help his wife and children clean up. Although Aliyah often refused, often even tried to do it herself, but still, at the end, inevitably Aliyah was forced to accept her help. His legs that could not be moved at all made him rely on Amar such as moving him or helping him wear subordinates.

Amar has parked his car in front of the house. He rushed down, impatient to see the beautiful face of the wife. The taste that was once bland slowly returned warm and flowery. His chest was filled with the scent of love. Though Aliyah was cold to him, but Amar actually felt more and more love.

I don't know why he could ignore his wife all this time. Why was he so foolish to miss the beautiful days they should have filled with happiness. Amar hopes that he can restore their lost time. Fill it with happiness and love. Love and look after each other. Death separates them.

However, just as Amar said his greetings and went into the house, Nana had already pulled the father's arm out of the house.

"What the hell are you, Na? Dad just got home and got dragged out again?" amar asked with a frown.

Nana glared with reddened eyes. His eyelids look puffy. It looks like he just cried.

"You why? What was? What the hell's been going on? Mother ... why mother? Mommy's okay, right?" amar who was suddenly worried.

"Dad ... Hicks ... Hicks ... Hicks ... "

"Na, what's wrong with you? Don't make me worry. What's the matter, actually?" Amar was really panicking at this moment.

"Well, that was .. Nana helped mom take a bath. Continue ... "

"Certain why? Mom fell? How's mom doing? Have you called a doctor?"

Nana shook her head, "no. That's not. Nana helped mom take a shower. Keep ... keep mom wanting to wear mom's favorite negligee dress. But ... " Nana rubbed her tears rough. Lips vibrate. Even the liquid of his nose was unceasingly coming out. " ... but mom's negligee dress is torn. Not torn because of what, but because of the scissors. Nana sure, it must be the action of the witch was the last time she used a mother negligee. Sad mom. Mother cried without a sound. Mom doesn't want to talk. I must have thought that Nana or the dad had the scissors from mommy's negligee, but he wasn't. Nana wants to tell me it must be the witch who has scissors mother negligee, but Nana is afraid I think of all sorts. Nana's confused. How is it going, Dad? All because of that witch. Nyesel Nana never put him in," Nana sniffled making Amar's breath immediately choked.

Jaw hardens. He really did not know that Nafisa could do that. What was Aliyah's fault with her? There aren't. They were the ones guilty of Aliyah. Even when his friends came to visit and regarded Aliyah as his art, Amar was silent, not defending at all. Now Nafisa does the unexpected. But he still behaves normally. As if I never made a mistake at all. Absolutely outrageous.

Maybe if he often gave Aliyah a gift, Aliyah would not be as hurt as that, but .. because it has been a very long time he did not give Aliyah a gift or souvenirs, but, aliyah must have been very sick. Moreover, the negligee is his favorite negligee. Amar really did not expect, that simple negligee could be his favorite item. Women are that simple. No need for luxury goods, as long as something is given with love, affection, and attention, then they will feel very happy. As if given the most valuable item in the world.

Amar tries to calm Nana down. After Nana calmed down, she rushed into their room. The wife was sitting pensively facing the glass window that led to the garden next to their house.

"Honey," called Amar softly while hugging Aliyah's body from behind.

Aliyah jerked. Even his body felt stiffened from Amar's sudden embrace. Something he had always wanted, but never felt. But when he was at his cut-off point, Amar did something unexpected. Something that shook his heart.

Amar could feel his female body stiffening. Amar grimaced, probably because it had been so long they had not done things that smelled of romance. As a result, Aliyah felt tense and awkward herself because of her actions. Amar was just reflexive to do that. Amar missed his wife so much. Though they had only been separated for a few hours, but his longing was already so intense. His heart was pounding unequivocally as his body cradled Aliyah's body.

Called like that, either there was a tingling feeling inside Aliyah's stomach. Something he hadn't felt for a long time. Especially so far Amar just called him a name. What an unusual thing. But Aliyah was silent. Amar smiled bitterly, he had not healed Aliyah's heart wound, now her heart has been scratched again because of the act of Nafisa who is not civilized at all.

"Sorry" said Amar again. "The Master .. a-I cut it. I'm sorry, " lied Amar. He had to do that. He did not want Aliyah to be more disappointed because she knew there were other women who entered their homes, especially the rooms that were their privacy.

"Why?" aliyah asked with trembling lips. "Do .. do I not deserve to have one of your gifts?"

'You're really evil, Amar. You made your wife cry again.'

"It's not like that, honey. Sorry, I .. I was upset because .. because you sent me an annoying message. Then when I got home, you were back to sleep in Gaffi's room. Out of annoyance, I .. I vented it with ... I'm sorry, "Amar can't put together another lie. So he can only say sorry.

At midnight, Amar could not fall asleep. Meanwhile, Aliyah already looked so slick. Her innocent face was like an adorable little boy. Looking at Aliyah's eyes, it really made Amar feel sick. Amar had seen how the negligee shirt was cut to formless again. Amar who saw him was sick, especially Aliyah.

"You're really outrageous, Fisa. Just be careful if we meet again," growled Amar with a hardened jaw.

The next morning, Amar was ready with a light blue short-sleeved shirt and black cargo shorts. That morning he wanted to take Aliyah and her children for a walk in the park. It was a weekend, so he wanted to take his little family for a walk together.

"You want something, Al?" ask Amar when they are in the park.

Aliyah who previously looked grim, now looked a little bright. For a long time he did not enjoy a relaxing day with a walk like this. Many years confined inside the house, without being able to freely travel, make the streets this time feel so pleasant. Aliyah closed her eyes while breathing in a deep breath of fresh air. His lungs felt full. Really fun.

Aliyah opened her eyes as Amar asked something.

"No. Just ask the children, maybe they want something," said Aliyah who is accustomed to prioritizing the interests of her children.

"For children you don't have to worry. They are actually enjoying the chicken porridge since then," said Amar while chuckling when he saw the shock on Aliyah's face.

"Well, since when?" his new voice realized that.

"Since you've been busy daydreaming," he said. "Sorry ... " I don't know how many times Amar apologized since Aliyah was sick. But Amar will never get tired of saying it because he realizes his mistakes have been so many and mountainous. Maybe even a lifetime of apologies won't make up for everything they did wrong.

"I'm sorry I never paid attention to you, your happiness. I was too busy with my own happiness to forget your happiness. I'm sorry," he said again.

"I want a vegetable poultice," said Aliyah deliberately diverted Amar so as not to continue his words.

Amar could only smile bitterly, even hearing her apology Aliyah felt reluctant. But a second later, Amar's face again looks cheerful. He did not want to ruin the happiness of his little family that day with his melow words.

"Ready, boss. Do it!" he cried with a beautiful smile as sweet as gulali.

Amar then pushed Aliyah's wheelchair up to one of the food stalls selling vegetable puffs. Aliyah seemed to be enjoying the vegetable lontong voraciously. But the presence of someone suddenly made Aliyah's mood plummeted instantly to the bottom.

"Mas Amar" a woman's cry made Amar gasp with a pias face.
