The Story Behind the Curtain
Mourning

Erli got up from his seat and walked towards the door of the room, he forgot that the door had been locked and the key was carried by Rafan.

"Please open the door!" erli said with a sob.

"I won't open that door until you answer my question."

"Please ... b-let me out! I want to go home to my uncle's house" Erli asked with a clear face.

Rafan did not respond to Erli's request even he turned his face away from seeing the tears that fell down soaked his wife's smooth cheeks. Rafan did not expect that Erli would kneel before him with a weeping that was getting louder, Rafan very clearly saw his wife having difficulty breathing due to kneeling.

"B-let me go home Mas .. I promise to follow all your words." Whimpering full of compassion.

"I won't let you get out of this room!" said firmly.

When Erli was about to kiss Rafan's feet, Rafan rushed to grab Erli's hand.

"What are you doing?" Rafan's eyes glared, "is it so hard 'do you answer my question? Or you still want her as sua—" Rafan's words hang because Erli silenced her husband's mouth with his left hand.

As if understanding Rafan's words, Erli tried to block her husband's mouth so as not to mention the name of Xavier—the person who incised a wound in his heart.

"I hate him so much, there is no intention in my heart to see his face. Hearing his name alone makes my blood boil" said Erli Lirih.

"Please ... don't discuss that useless human being!" Their eyes stared at each other.

For a moment the world stopped turning as they came close to each other. No Rafan denied that he likes this situation very much, he let Erli's hand still silence his mouth.

The smell of Erli's body goes into Rafan's sense of smell and spreads to Rafan's lungs, the smell of Erli's body is able to calm Rafan's anxiety. When they were still drifting would the atmosphere suddenly Erli felt pain in his stomach.

"Acst ...." Erli groaned in pain.

Sontak Rafan holds the wife's stomach, "Why? What's that hurting?" ask Rafan to panic.

The man carried his wife and laid Erli's body on the bed.

"We're going to the hospital, huh?" he said glancing at the clock hanging on the wall.

Erli blocks Rafan's wrist, his wife shaking.

"I'm fine. Maybe this is the effect of moving too much," he said.

"What have you been doing all day? Can't you just follow your husband's words?" rafan said grumbling.

Erli played the end of Rafan's shirt and in his hoarse voice he said.

"I'm sorry!"

The man hugged his wife very tightly and buried his face in Erli's neck.

"Don't do anything that harms our child" whispered Rafan slowly.

Erli stroked Rafan's back lovingly, kissing Rafan's shoulder.

"Are you really okay?" Taking off her embrace to look at Erli's face.

"Hmm, I'm fine, Mom. You don't have to worry!" reply Erli with a faint smile.

Rafan kissed the wife's stomach, as she stroked Erli's distended stomach suddenly he felt a movement on the side of his wife's stomach.

"Is he really moving?" Staring at Erli curiously, "father's son actually moved to greet father. Good job son," said Rafan with a big smile.

Erli was very happy to see her husband very attentive to the health of the baby she was carrying.

So satisfied chatting—ria with the baby Rafan again raised questions that sparked debate between them just now.

"What was your answer to my question?" Rafan returned to the original topic.

Erli bit her lower lip and distanced her body to look at Rafan's face.

"Should I answer that?"

"Hmm, gotta!" sahut Rafan flat.

"Can't I answer tomorrow" said Erli.

Rafan covered both hands on the side of Erli's face, the look of Rafan's eyes that I let Erli's heart melt.

"Since our first meeting, I've been in love with you. Unfortunately, you don't have any feelings for me" he admitted without hesitation.

It's time for me to acknowledge my feelings as well he said in his heart.

Erli had been preparing to reveal his feelings, but had stopped when the door of their room was knocked on by Zulaika.

"Fan, get out!"

"What's wrong, ma'am?" rafan asked from the room.

"Outside there is Marlita wanting to see you" said Zulaika from behind the door.

Erli's forehead shriveled when he heard his mother-in-law softly mention the name of the woman who tried to ruin his relationship with Rafan.

"Make him wait a minute, ma'am!" rafan kalem.

Feeling that there is no more legitimacy, Rafan walks towards the bathroom.

What's the problem with the jungle bear coming here? murmured Erli in the heart.

Curiosity makes Erli's heart restless and because of the anxiety it arises Erli's stomach feels nauseous want to vomit.

"Mas, take a shower! I'm gonna throw up" Erli said at the bathroom door.

"Yes, just get in!" sahut Rafan from the bathroom.

"Don't be weird, Mom! Quickly cannot be arrested! Uhmm ...." Erli blocked his own mouth.

"Are you okay?" Rafan opens the door and leads Erli in.

Sure enough, Erli spewed out the entire contents of the food he had eaten earlier. Rafan massaged Erli's back neck gently.

"It's-it's Mas," Erli patted softly on the back of Rafan's hand.

When Rafan was about to lead him out, Erli prevented him.

"I can do it myself."

"You sure?"

"Hm ...." Rafan let go of his arms and let Erli walk out.

Just as Rafan turned his body, his eardrums heard his wife screech, he immediately turned his head to look at Erli who had been unconscious lying on the floor.
