The Story Behind the Curtain

The Story Behind the Curtain
Deceived


On the other end of the phone Bima still called out Erli's name repeatedly.


"Hello, Erli ... Er, you're still there, aren't you?"


Erli who was jolted from his daydream crouched down and grabbed the phone he had just dropped.


"Yes Bim" he answered sobbing.


"Where are you now?" tanya Erli held back a cry.


"Gue's still in the hospital. My advice, you don't come here!" the word Bima prevented Erli's intention.


"B-but I want to see him one last time Bim," said Erli chuckling, "I feel guilty for him." Erli's cry broke just like that and it invited curious Rafan who passed through Erli's room.


Rafan entered without knocking on his wife's room door, slowly Rafan wrapped his hands around Erli's waist.


"Why you?" rafan whispered in Erli's ear.


The woman was still sobbing while looking at her face, Rafan who felt strange immediately grabbed Erli's phone.


"What are you talking to my wife about until she cries?" ask Rafan growled.


"Seriously lo, Bim? I still saw Xavier yesterday, he's fine." Rafan looked at Erli curiously.


"Okay, tomorrow you meet me with Erli at the restaurant I work at!" rafan said calmly looking at Erli with the look in his eyes.


Why is she crying like this? Is it possible that he regretted not accepting Xavier's father's offer? Does he still have feelings for Xavier? Astagfirullah ... Why am I prejudiced against him? rafan's heart and mind continued to guess the reason Erli was crying.


"Mas, you don't misunderstand me! I was crying, not because I regretted losing her. At that time I had not had time to apologize to him, I continued to corner him for what had happened to my life." Erli hugged Rafan and buried his face in the chest of the husband's field.


"If I had known he was leaving so soon I would have apologised earlier and I would have thanked him too" said Erli, who still buried his face in Rafan's chest.


Erli's sentence made Rafan frown and then he asked a question.


Rafan bent his body to look at his wife's face.


"Thank you for what? And an apology for what? Do you regret marrying me?" he nodded without thinking anymore.


"No-no Mas! Not like that" said Erli quickly.


Rafan's forehead shriveled, "Then ...."


"Inside here, there's no word of regret." Erli took off his embrace and touched his own chest.


"Because his folly brought us together. Since our wedding day, I've been in love with you. I'm not willing if another woman approaches you, even if only to ask about the address or the other," Erli said shamelessly, the 26-year-old woman had dared to express her heart which she had been quieting all along.


"You're aware of what you're saying?" Looking at it full of seriousness.


The offended Erli brushed off both hands of Rafan covering part of his face.


"Whose face looks delirious? I'm serious about everything I say!" erli said with great emphasis.


"Alhamdulillah." Rafan rubbed his face with both hands as if he had finished praying.


Suddenly Erli lays a punch in the chest of Rafan's field and he also floats a bogeman into the stomach of Rafan's sixpack. Her legal husband pulled the corner of her lips and stung a mischievous idea in his mind.


"Ouch!" he complained while holding his checkered stomach.


"Are my punches too hard, Mom?" asked Erli confused.


"Sorry to me." Erli stared and stroked the husband's stomach.


Rafan held back a laugh seeing his wife fooled and when Erli still stroked the sixpack stomach, Rafan covered both his hands in part of Erli's face. Stared fixed beautiful eyeballs that the distance of their faces is now very close even the tip of their noses attached.


The look deepened swept them away in silence. When Erli closed his eyes Rafan smiled sweetly to see his beautiful wife was preparing to wait for the movement he would make.


In Erli's mind, Rafan will kiss his thin lips, but in reality Rafan only kisses the tip of his head and it makes Erli disappointed. The cheerful look of the face changed instantly, the lips that were soaked with frowning eyebrows meant that he was dissatisfied with Rafan's actions.


Rafan is increasingly anxious with Erli's behavior, he knows very well what is in his wife's mind, therefore he only gives a thin kiss on the tip of the head.


"You're not satisfied?" The stupid question Rafan asked.


He's a pe'ak knows what? Already know my expression manyun, still ask again! grumbled Erli in heart.


"Are you okay, Honey? You okay, honey?" Rafan asked again.


"Yes, I'm so fine! yeah, I'm perfectly fine!" erli said slowly, but sharply.


Suddenly Rafan laughed at Erli's facial expression while expressing his feelings, Rafan's happy laughter caused confusion in the heart of the wife. To the extent that he touched Rafan's forehead and stared in seriousness.


"Why again?" Staring from head to toe, "are you satisfied with me, Mas? Go to your woman!" drive Erli away with crossed hands on the chest.


Reflek Rafan tilted his head peeking at the wife's face.


"Woman, who do you mean?"


"Forget it, I just spoke!" erli said while shaking his left hand.


Rafan raised both his eyebrows and nodded his head closer to Erli's bed bed where there was their adorable son Alkaiz—.


"Assalamualaikum son of father. How you doing, son?" Rafan kissed the little baby's cheek.


Before continuing his words Rafan looked at Erli who was still standing near the plastic cupboard.


"If it's big later .. Don't be like your bundle, yeah!" whispered soft Rafan.


"What's? Try repeating that phrase!" erli's orders while getting closer.


Rafan looked at Erli and said, "Are you a lot? You're wondering?"


Erli closed his eyes when he heard the strange sentence.


"Since when have you had Cemrek fever, Mas?" Worked eyes repeatedly.


Instead of answering Rafan instead put his shoulders together, Erli immediately patted his own eel and closed his eyelids. Without warning Rafan pecked Erli's lips repeatedly.


Deg ....


Erli stopped moving, slowly his eyelids opened staring at the face of the husband who had been close to him. Their eyebrows stick together and again Rafan floated that friendly kiss again which made his wife soar high up in the sky, still shocked by Rafan—'s behavior again makes Erli dead tick pulled Erli's body until he sat on his lap.


Blush ....


The woman's face flushed, her heart rumbled and the blood on her body seemed to boil. Rafan's gust of breath hit the skin of Erli's neck, the fragrant breath Rafan can breathe freely by him.


What's he gonna do? Please don't make me crumble like this Rafan! I-I'm not ready yet! erli murmured in his heart.


Her husband drew closer until the pointy natural lips stuck to his ears, slowly Erli closed and heard the words that spread Erli's mind.
