A Glimpse of Light For Raina

Honest

Soon after, Raina who had finished bathing and was also neat with the national clothes of mothers who were none other than negligee, now joined Satria and her mother in the family room. Raina sat down with Al who had been actively playing since.

"Raina ..." call Riska's mother slowly.

"Yes, Mom." said Raina.

"Have you spoken to Satria about what the doctor said?" Ibu Riska asked carefully, even though she knew that her daughter had not told her daughter-in-law anything, but she still pretended not to know.

Raina shook her head and looked at Satria.

"Are you ready to talk to your husband?" ask Riska again.

Raina bowed, her lips feeling faint to tell Satria what had happened to her. His fear of Satria who will not accept still haunts him.

"Dec, say. Tell Mas what's going on." said Satria.

"Raina has failed to be a good mother and wife to you." Raina said something that made Satria even more confused, even Raina cried when saying that.

"Hey, no one thinks of you that way. You are a great mother to Al." said Satria.

Satria looked at her in-laws to give an explanation.

"Rai, calm yourself. If you haven't been able to tell Satria, I'll talk to her. You have to calm your heart." said Ms. Riska.

Raina just nodded her head, trying to synchronize her heart and brain in order to fuse together.

"Look, Son Satria ...."

Riska's mother began to tell the beginning of the problem from the first time she saw an angry Raina explode and vent her anger on her son and also the incident this morning, Raina who screams historically is terrified and shies away from Al who keeps crying.

Satria listened carefully to the explanation from her mother-in-law without refuting a single word.

"Mom felt something was wrong with Raina, so the mother took Raina to check with her psychiatrist and brought Al to treatment this morning" said Ms. Riska.

Satria looked at Raina at a glance who was bowed and looked back at her mother-in-law.

"Then, what about the results of the examination?" ask Satria.

"The doctor concluded that Raina had postpartum depression" replied Ms. Riska.

"Why, could? What caused Raina to become depressed?" ask Satria who did not expect what Raina had experienced.

"The cause is a matter of the heart." said Ms. Riska.

Then, the middle-aged woman again repeated the series of stories that Raina had told the psychiatrist who handled her daughter without a single word that was lacking in the slightest.

Satria looked surprised to hear an explanation from her mother-in-law. Satria also felt concerned and guilty, because all was the fault of his mother and also his self who did not understand Raina as his wife.

"Raina harbored it herself, even though it looked so tough outside of her. Turns out, he's so fragile in it, he's going through something like this." Riska's mother resumed her words with teary eyes.

"Sorry Mas, Deck. And I'm sorry it was Mas who made you this way." Satria clasped Raina's hands tightly and apologized to her.

"Please, Nak Satria keep the feelings of Raina so that she does not keep thinking about the past problems" said Ms. Riska reminded.

"Yes, Mom." Satria replied.

Satria looked back at Raina who was still sobbing.

"Don't cry anymore, I can't see you sad. I promise you, I will always be there for you and Al. We're all dealing with this together. From now on, whatever you want to talk about, the thing that holds your heart, do not hesitate to share with Mas. Mas will always be faithful to be your listener." said Satria with full firmness in every sentence he said.

Ibu Riska felt overwhelmed to hear sentence after sentence thrown by Satria.

"Mommy is sure that sooner or later you will love Raina with all your heart. Truly sincere love for a wife." Inner Mother Riska.

"Would Mas accompany Raina to return to visit the psychiatrist?" asked Raina who was a little hesitant.

"Sure, Deck. Mas will accompany you, whatever it is as long as it is for your sake. Mas will support and always encourage you so that you can go back to living your days as a mother without fear anymore. And don't ever think of anything bad again, you have to convince your heart that you're Mas's only wife." Somehow Satria sure talk to Raina, while herself is not sure with her own feelings.

Raina smiled at the sweet words coming out of Satria's lips. Which woman's heart does not feel washed away, when hearing sentence after sentence that convinces the heart of a man who is loved.

"Do I have to apologize to them? Hmmm, but if I show myself in front of Raina, it will certainly worsen her mood again. Although my arrival was well-intentioned." murmured Erlina who was struck by turmoil.

*******

Back to Raina's house.

"Ehm ... ehm .. Why is it, Sister Raina smiled that way? What the hell is it, for dong, if you're happy?" asked Raka who had just come from playing futsal.

"Not to the little boy. Take a shower, there. Your asem smell." said Ms. Riska while rubbing the face of the youngest child.

"Ah, mother." Raka grumbled with her lips pursed.

Satria and Raina laughed at Raka's behavior.

"Oh yeah, said mom was out shopping? Where do you want to see what you bought?" Satria shifted the atmosphere so that Raina did not rethink her words.

"Yes, Mas. The groceries are still under my car." replied Raina.

"Come, accompany Mas to take his groceries." invite Satria.

Raina complies and follows Satria to her mother's car parked in the yard.

Satria and Raina each brought with them a bag of groceries to bring into the house. Their belongings have been placed in the corner of the family room.

"This is the spending structure, Mas." said Raina while handing over the purchase receipt earlier.

Satria also received it and noticed a list of items that Raina had bought along with the price listed on the receipt.

"So, the money is left over. Why don't you spend another one, Dek?" ask Satria after seeing Raina's total groceries.

"Yes, Mas. The plan is that the rest of the money will be used to buy groceries to fill our kitchen and also shopping for small gifts" replied Raina.

"Wellful? Not thinking about it" said Satria.

"Yes, Mas. Better the house that we will occupy is read a prayer so that later we feel at home in the house and hopefully the house that we will stay later brings blessings for us." said Raina.

"Yes, I believe everything is the same as you." said Satria.

"Thank you, Mas." Raina replied.

After discussing the matter of moving her house later, Satria and Raina had dinner together because Raina had to put Al to bed first, so their dinner time had to retreat. Satria, who wants to have dinner with Raina, has to wait for Raina to fall asleep.

At the dining table there are only the two of them, Raina serves Satria as usual. Their dinner felt more intimate, even though it only threw one another a look and a smile, but for Raina and Satria there was something different about the atmosphere of the dinner from before that was more warm.

"What is this cooking you do?" tanya Satria broke the silence.

"No. Mother cooked it. Wh why? Is there something wrong with the cooking?" ask Raina.

"No, it's delicious. But tomorrow I want you to cook for Mas." Pinta Satria.

"good. In fact, if we have moved house later, Raina will continue to cook food for Mas." said Raina.

"Thank you, Dek." said Satria, stroking Raina's back.

Raina just gave her smile to Satria.

"Yes Rabb, let the smile always rise in his lips. Do not give her deep pain and reassure her that this love is only for her." Inner Satria.

"Yes Rabb, I just want to heal and live my days as I have. Make a good servant of a mother and wife for both parts of my heart without any fear and anxiety to be with them." - Raina.
