Abraham and Asyila 2

Wishing Only a Nightmare

“No!” shouts Asyila.

Abraham tried to wake his little wife while continuing to pat her on the cheeks of the wife to wake up immediately.

“Syila, wake up!” Abraham tried to shake the body of his little wife and hoped Asyila would wake up soon.

“No!” asyila shouted and she woke up from her nightmare.

Asyila touched both her knees and looked at her previously injured palm.

“Syila why?” asked Abraham in panic, “Did Syila have nightmares?” ask Abraham.

Asyila was silent for quite a long time like a possessed person. He was silent with a blank look.

Abraham rubbed his little wife's face with water and read the do'a verse of the chair in the ear of his little wife.

Asyila regained her senses and tightly embraced her husband's body, so tightly that Abraham felt tight.

The young woman then spat three times while looking to the left. He also read the nightmare in his heart.

Huwallahu, allahu rabbi, la syarika lahu. Bikalimatillahit tammati min gadhabihi wa min syarri ibadihi wamin hamazatis syayatini wa an yahdhuruni.

“It's okay, there's Mas here,” said Abraham calmed his little wife.

A cold sweat splashed down Ashila's forehead, even Abraham could feel the cold sweat that Asyila had let out. Abraham did not ask about Asyila's nightmare, nor did Asyila want to tell him the nightmare.

“Mas, don't leave Asyila,” Asyila said as she held back her tears. Asyila did not want her husband to worry more about her situation.

“In fact, just to think about it Mas never. Quiet syila yes, let's get some wudhu water!” take Abraham and help his little wife get up.

Asyila's legs suddenly numb, she almost fell if the husband did not hold her body.

“Syila drink first,” said Abraham and sat his little wife in a chair. Then Abraham took a glass of water and asked Ashila to finish it.

Asyila uttered the bismillah and drank it to the end. Asyila was hopeful that it was just a nightmare and nothing would happen in the future.

“Mas, can Asyila contact Arsyad now? Oya, where's Ashraf? Wasn't Ashraf sleeping with Asyila,” Asyila said so helplessly.

Abraham tried to contact his mother-in-law, even though it was still 1am, Abraham hoped his mother-in-law would accept his video call.

“Assalamu’alaikum, Mother,” Abraham said.

“Wa’alaikumsalam, what's up with Abraham?” ask Arumi.

“Sorry to interrupt Mom's sleep,” said Abraham apologizing.

“Not at all, Mom even just cooked food for our sahur preparation,” reply Arumi honestly.

Abraham gave his cell phone to his wife.

“Mother, hiks.. hiks..” Asyila suddenly burst into tears and shocked Abraham.

Abraham tried to appease his little wife for fear that her mother-in-law had misunderstood him.

“Why you baby?” ask Arumi who looks worried.

“Asyila misses out with Dad, Mom and Arsyad. When did you guys get here? Or Asyila who will be there to meet Father, Mother and Arsyad,” explained Asyila.

“Darling, are you having nightmares? We here also miss you there, but for a while we have not been able to go there,” explained Arumi.

Asyila nodded in understanding and asked her mother to show her sleeping first son's face.

“Goodnight Mother's darling!” greet Asyila and at that moment Ashila's heart felt at peace.

For a long time Ashila looked at Arsyad's face, until they ended the video call.

After that, the two rushed into the bathroom to fetch some water.

Morning time.

Asyila was still ringing with her dreams, she hoped that her nightmares would not come true.

“This morning Pregnant women should not daydream,” said Abraham teased his little wife who was sitting dreamy while looking at the beach through the window.

Asyila smiled faintly and led her husband's hand to hug her from behind.

“Yes then we make until Asyila is pregnant,” Abraham said and laughed a little.

“Tok... tok!” The knocking of the door shook Abraham and Asyila.

Asyila who was quite openly dressed rushed into the room to change her clothes immediately. Abraham opened the door.

“Good morning Uncle!” greeting Dyah who was currently in possession of Ashraf, “Aunty where?” he asked Dyah because he did not see Ashila.

“There is a room, why did you come here so early? Shouldn't you rest a lot,” said Abraham.

“Dyah here because you want a vacation, Uncle. After all, the atmosphere is cold and very delicious to breathe fresh air near the beach,” said Dyah.

Asyila came out of her room and Ashraf quickly ran over to her mother.

“Mother.” Ashraf looks very clingy and does not want to escape from the arms of Asyila.

Asyila recalled her nightmare again, she tightened her embrace and cried without making a sound.

Dyah was shocked to see Aunty's tears continuing to flow profusely.

“Uncle... Aunty why cry?” ask Dyah.

“Ssssuuuttt..” Abraham merely signaled that Dyah should be silent.

Dyah also gave a small nod while continuing to watch Asyila who was crying while hugging Ashraf.

“Day don't cry,” said Ashraf while wiping his Mother's tears with her small hands.

Asyila smiled faintly and helped her baby wipe away the tears.

“Mother is no longer crying dear, here kiss Mother!” pinta Asyila while pointing towards the right and left cheeks.

“Muacchh... Muaacchhh!” Ashraf passionately kissed the right and left cheeks of his mother.

“Thank you dear,” said Asyila.

Asyila also gasped and approached Dyah while holding the hand of her little son, Ashraf.

“How are you, Dyah?” ask Asyila.

“Alhamdulillah well, Aunty how are you?” ask Dyah back.

“Insya Allah Your Aunty is fine,” replied Asyila.

Dyah was a little confused as she glanced towards her Uncle. Abraham could only smile and embrace the waist of his little wife.

“Today we want breakfast what?” ask Abraham.

“Mas, Asyila cook yes?” ask Asyila who suddenly wants to cook food so that she has activities and does not feel sad anymore.

Abraham quickly agreed, however, he wanted his little wife to be cheerful again and not remember the nightmare experienced by his little wife. Although Abraham did not know of Asyila's nightmares, Abraham believed that nightmares were just nightmares.

“Mas, please buy Asyila squid and any other vegetable!” asyila pinta.

“Heemmm... Fresh squid or not? It looks like Mas will have trouble choosing a good squid,” said Abraham who pretended to be confused so that his little wife would go with him to the fish market.

“Then Asyila just come along Mas!” asyila pinta.

Abraham breathed a sigh of relief and gave thanks because his little wife wanted to come with him to go find squid in the fish market.

“Dyah follow ya!” dyah Pinta.

“Ashraf also yes!” exclaim Ashraf.

Abraham and Asyila agreed, they rushed to the fish market by driving Temmy's car, Papa from Dyah.

“Uncle go to?” asked Fahmi who was sitting.

Abraham has an idea and quickly invites Fahmi to come with them to go to the fish market. Dyah was actually not happy because Fahmi joined, but he also could not prohibit it.
