After sipping the coffee made by Yuna to the toilet, Elkan took his wife to the room to rest. His eyes felt heavy because last night he could only sleep for two hours was Reynolds who kept him drinking.
The sleepy Reynolds then took Laura to their room. This time Laura did not want to be carried and instead asked Reynold to just clean it up.
Upon arrival in the room, Reynold laid Laura on the bed. He then opened the t-shirt attached to his body and lay down next to his wife. Unsolicited, Laura hugged Reynold to the point of eroding the distance between them.
"Tumben, what's the wind?" Reynold frowned.
"Can't really?" Laura let go of her embrace and inched away.
"By honey, don't sulk that dong! Here, hug again!"
Reynold shifted and grabbed Laura's hand, then wrapped it back around her waist. He then rubbed Laura's hair back and kissed her forehead affectionately.
Laura who got such warm treatment felt very comfortable. She hugged Reynold tightly and drowned her face in her husband's chest.
"Mas.." call Laura while closing her eyes.
"Hmm.." muttered Reynold.
"Thank you" said Laura.
"Thank you for what?" Reynold frowned.
"For everyone, thank you also because Mas has chosen me to be Mas's wife. I realized Mas was the best man God sent me, I promised to be a good wife to Mas. After my feet heal, I will serve Mas earnestly!" said Laura.
"Here, don't think! Just walk like flowing water, after all Mas will not demand anything from you. The important thing is to stay by your side no matter what!" sahut Reynolds.
"Yes, I promise!" nod Laura, then gently kiss the chest surface of Reynold's field.
"Hehe... Amused darling, don't be!" Reynold laughed amusedly while writhing.
"Haha... Sorry," Laura laughed.
About a quarter of an hour passed, the two of them finally fell asleep in a hugging position.
In another room, Elkan had just laid down after cleaning himself in the bathroom. He hugged Yuna from behind and kissed her softly on the shoulder.
"Bang.." call Yuna who is still loyal to her position.
"Yes dear," replied Elkan as he tightened his embrace.
"How did you feel after meeting Laura again? Does that feeling still exist?" yuna asked which made Elkan gasp in shock.
"What's so weird? It's only natural that Yuna asks like this, after all you two used to love each other. Five years is not a short time, many wonderful memories you have shared. It can't be forgotten, right?" lirih Yuna with teary eyes.
After half a day of restraint, Yuna finally ventured to ask that. Let's say Elkan has nothing to do with Laura, but as a wife there is still a feeling of jealousy in Yuna's heart considering the relationship between the two that had been established for a long time.
Yuna just laughed outside, but in her heart was a lump of stone that stuck up to stifle her chest. As the saying goes, first love is hard to forget. Her husband may have experienced the same.
Was he wrong to let the two of them meet again? If the feeling grows again how? Surely it was him and Reynold who would get hurt after this.
"Darling, don't think so weird! It's all just the past, the future is Yuna" Elkan explained as he rubbed Yuna's arm.
"Yuna knew it was just the past, but if the feeling came back how? Our togetherness is far inferior to your togetherness, between us no memories are created, different from you." Finally the clear chunk fell down Yuna's cheeks.
Elkan let out a heavy sigh and threw it away violently. He pulled Yuna's arm and twisted her body to face each other.
Elkan's eyes immediately rounded when he found Yuna's cheeks that had been wet because of her tears that continued to flow.
"Don't cry, baby! Foolish as hell," Elkan swept Yuna's cheek and kissed her forehead fondly.
"Yuna was afraid of Bang, what would Yuna do if that happened? Yuna couldn't, Yuna couldn't live without Brother." sobs Yuna broke in Elkan's arms.
"That will never happen, Brother belongs to Yuna and will forever remain Yuna's. Yuna must remember, Laura is Reynolds wife. She's Yuna's sister-in-law, where maybe you want her. Brother made small talk purely out of respect for Reynolds as brother-in-law, that's all." explained Elkan.
After hearing Elkan's explanation just now, Yuna started to feel a little calm. She hugged Elkan tightly and kissed her husband's chin gently, then closed her eyes.
Elkan who saw that could only smile and kiss Yuna's lips back. "Truly stupid, this one just doesn't go out." Then Elkan rubbed Yuna's back and kissed her forehead.
Let alone to approach another woman, thinking up to there only Elkan never. For him Yuna was more than enough, Yuna was already very perfect for him. What else is he looking for?
Beautiful already, soft also already, well already, obedient also already, loving already, happy body also already, plus only he was the one who ever touched Yuna. What else is another woman for?
Elkan knew how precious he was in Yuna's eyes, where maybe he could betray his wife. Moreover, there is a twin in the middle of them, Elkan did not want his two children to lose the affection of one of them both.
Elkan had felt what it was like to lose both parents since he was a toddler, although there is a grandfather Bram who loves him very much but still it feels different between the affection of both parents and the affection of a grandfather.
Although in the end he had to swallow the bitter pill because of the reality that existed. Little Elkan was not immediately left dead by his parents but was left behind by the mother who preferred another man than her own son and husband.
Then how could Elkan possibly do that to Yuna. Elkan himself had already felt how painful it was to be betrayed, abandoned and ignored.
It was highly unlikely that Elkan would do that to Yuna who was clearly his wife and the only woman he loved so much in this world. A woman who has straightened her way and provided abundant happiness in her life. Women who have been patient face all the shortcomings and accept them as they are. The woman who has also given the gift of remembrance is two little angels who became the perfecter of her life. There was no reason for Elkan to abandon him or betray him, only a foolish man could do that.
Seriate...
