THE UNIVERSE IS FOLLOWING US
CHAPTER 2

I have to go back to Jakarta." Juna picked up his stuff in his mess.

Tio was shocked to see Juna who said he would return to Jakarta. Juna's face was still pale, moreover, his sister-in-law almost collapsed after feeling dizzy and nauseous.

"Sister rest first. Brother's face is still pale. Moreover, my sister had fainted and vomited. Come on, Brother Juna take a break." Tio still held Juna.

"But I thought of Dira, To. Last night I promised to go home but it turned out to be like this." lamented Juna.

"Sister should have invited Brother Dira here. She's your wife where her husband should go. Not busy with each other's work. Brother look Ayu, he left his job to come with me."

Juna lowered his head when he heard Tio's words. Remembering when he was still in Bengkulu, Juna and Dira had discussed this matter. Where he asked Dira not to work anymore.

One month ago, after the first week of their marriage. Juna had already prepared for their residence. Not to interfere with parents and in-laws. It was also said by Dira when they were not married. Dira once told him not to interfere with his in-laws and parents.

After returning home from Bengkulu, Juna submitted his resignation at the Han opa office. Not because he got what he got. But Juna was willing to help his papa develop a tea factory that was about to die. The tea factory that made him able to go to school and become a scholar.

Fortunately, Han accepted his resignation. Because Han opa also supports Juna's desire to revive the tea factory. Even opa Han wants to cooperate with the tea factory owned by Johan Bramantyo, his adopted son.

Now he has to start talking about Dira's resignation. His only desire is one, he wants to bring Dira to stay in Lembang. Unfortunately, his desire to get rejection from him.

"Mas, I really want to be a housewife. But right now the company needs me. Mas, you know Feri's got a problem." Juna nodded.

"Yes, I know, baby. But I also want you to spend some time as a wife and mother. If only we had children and you still work for our children later" said Juna.

"Right now I want to focus on work, but still have no children, mas. Later if I'm pregnant, papa will not first trimester I still work."

"Don't dong, baby. If you are pregnant, you should focus on your child. Let me do the work. It's my job as a husband."

"But now I'm not pregnant, ma'am. So my career opportunities are still vast." Dira remained determined by his wishes.

"Well, if that's what you want. I won't make sense, but you should know the time limit."

Juna's daydreams scatter when he feels the vibration of the phone. He quickly saw who was calling. Her forehead frowned when she saw the name Vira on her phone screen.

"The virus! what's he calling?" inner Juna.

"Assynualaykum, Vira?" Juna picked up his sister-in-law's phone.

"So, can Juna go home?" I heard a little sniff from across.

"Vira why are you? how do you cry? what's up?"

"Kak Dira ..." Vira's voice was disjointed.

"Di...Ra... What happened to Dira? what's wrong with my wife?" Juna felt a high degree of anxiety.

"Sir Dira passed out last night in front of the bathroom. Until now there was no sign of him waking up, sis." the sound of Vira's crying grew.

"Whataaa! okay, now I'm there!" Juna turns off the phone without saying goodbye to Vira.

"Where is Juna going?" Ayu saw the elder brother in a hurry.

"Snob't have to go home! Dira passed out last night in front of the bathroom. Not yet conscious."

"Innalilahi, patient brother, yes! but brother's still not well." Ayu reminds Juna of her brother's condition.

"I don't care! I feel like a bad husband if I'm not next to him. I'm afraid something's happened to Dira." lamented Juna.

"I'm the one between Juna's sisters." proposed Tio. Of course ayu objected because he is currently also two-bodied. If her husband had gone to take Arjuna, she would have been alone at home.

"Mas, when I'm home alone!" ayu protest.

"You are with Mary." proposes Juna. Ayu frowned. He did not like Maria. Somehow he felt that Maria was not a good person to make friends with.

"Why should he? there is nothing else!"

"And you're both young. The difference is she's single and you're a potential mother. I called Maria and she wanted to. Brother can't stay long. Jakarta is just as far away Bandung!"

Ayu would not let go of her brother and husband's departure. Still lips curled down, ayu ushered her husband in front of the door.

"Be careful, baby." said Ayu.

The night is getting late, Juna still steadfastly leave for Jakarta. For the sake of the woman he loved he was willing to ignore his unhealthy physique. For the sake of the woman he loved he willingly relented from his ego to still allow Dira to work.

Tio was carrying a car while Juna was sitting in the back. The 25-year-old man, smiling at the anxiety of his sister-in-law. Not long after Juna fell asleep.

At one night the car in Tio has entered the residence area of Dewi Savitri. Tio was still reluctant to wake Juna up, until he had turned off his car.

Some people opened the car door after Juna had already woken up. Her house looks very dark. Juna walked into his in-laws house. Mama Dewi seemed to be crying, there was Feri with her glass face.

"Ma, .. What's the matter?" ask Juna.

"Juna, you go up .." Mama Dewi's voice is still hoarse.

"Ma, answer! Dira why!" Juna was panicking at the attitude of his wife's family.

Without waiting for an answer, Juna went straight up to his wife's balcony room. His feelings were not careless when he saw his wife's body lying and sleeping.

Everyone in the room came out and left them. Juna kissed his wife's hand and forehead. It was as if there was suffering enveloping him.

"Darling, wakeup! please don't leave me. I'm sorry if I leave you so often in a week. That's why I'm asking you to come to Lembang so we don't stay far away." Juna hugged Dira's body. His eyes turned to the letter that was on the nightstand next to Dira's bed.

Wiping her tears, Juna opened the letter.

A few lines of words lined up on the white paper.

God, god,

Today I only ask for one wish.

Protect my husband wherever he is.

Protect him from dangers that will threaten his life.

Protect him from people who don't like him.

Protect her from women who want to dominate her.

God, god,

Today he is the best man of my life.

In this moment only he is always in my prayer.

May I always be in her prayer.

Thank God, his age is growing.

You gave us the most beautiful gift in the first month of the wedding.

A gift we will keep for life.

The gifts all couples look forward to.

Mas, happy birthday.

May a healthy life always.

You know, baby? You are also the most beautiful gift God has sent me, my wingless angel, my great man, my faithful man accompanied me on a long winding journey.

Juna closed the letter that Dira had written for him. His face looks very wet. The net switches when something falls on the floor.

"Testpacks! line two!" Juna could not hide his happiness.

Slowly Dira opened her eyes. Her smile expanded when she saw her husband's reaction.

"Mas, .." Dira's voice sounded soft.

"Darling, this is right? you're pregnant, baby!" Dira nodded slowly.

"Happy birthday, my husband.may you live long and healthy always. Are you called papa?"

Juna kissed the wife's stomach.

Gratitude is inexhaustible I extend to Your presence, O God, you give me a wonderful wife and you give us again the gift of a little angel who is now growing up in my wife's womb.. Make them a healthy, smart, beautiful, and beautiful child2

And also give health and strength to my wife, O Allah Amiiiin.
