After 10 Years of Marriage
Chapter 01
Yana Ayunda, a 38-year-old woman, is picking you up her two sons from school. She is currently waiting for her two sons at the gate, as her husband cannot pick her up and requires her to leave.
After entering the age of 10 years of marriage, there is something different from her husband. Usually cheerful, in the last three weeks he has been quieter and rarely jokes with his son.
Yana is very aware of it, often she asks what is the problem with her husband who suddenly changed unlike usual. But the husband said nothing.
“Mama,” call his two sons.”
“Hey, Baby. Come on in, we have to go home soon, because the car will be used Papa working.”
Because they only have one car at home, so alternating with her husband who will work this afternoon to the office.
Actually, Yana used to pick up her two sons on a motorcycle. However, outside of the heavy rain, she uses her husband's car to pick him up.
Her husband is only a worker in an ordinary office, but the salary received by her husband is good enough to support them and also pay car installments.
“Ma, Deva want ice cream.” Showing an ice cream shop on the side of the road.
“Honey, it's raining to eat ice cream anyway!” push Yana gently.
Not that I don't want to buy it, it's just that the line is quite long. While the car she drives will be brought by her husband to go to the office.
“Ma, Deva has never eaten that ice cream. Ma, buy yes.” With a trembling voice slowly shook his mother's arm.
Yana seemed to sigh heavily, she could not refuse the request of her son.
“Good. Diki want too?” he asked his other son, the age gap between Deva and Diki was only one year.
“No, Ma. Diki was full, for Deva alone,” rejected him while looking at the book he learned earlier.
“Oke, wait in the car. Mama will buy it for you,” said her mother took the money out of her wallet.
Almost half an hour in line for the ice cream, finally it was their turn.
“It's Deva, we have to hurry home. Surely Papa is waiting for us,” he told his son, because they are already 10 minutes late.
Yana takes the car quickly enough to get home on time. It is impossible, because it is too late.
Arriving at home, it is true that the husband looked at him sharply on the porch of the house.
“You go into the room and change clothes,” Yana told her two sons.
They nodded.
“Pa, Deva bought ice cream,” said Deva innocently showing ice cream in her hands, Yana closed her eyes that she was in danger.
Annoyed that he was late for work, the husband took the ice cream in his son's hands and threw it in his wife's face
Pluck up!
The ice cream was scattered.
“Do you not know if I have to go to work this afternoon! It's past the break!” he snaps at his wife.
Yana seemed speechless looking at her husband who was snapping at her, as this was also the first time.
“Stupid basis!” his jolt again took the car keys in Yana's hand.
While Deva was very frightened to see her father so angry, Diki as her brother brought Deva to enter the room. Although he was only 8 years old, he understood that his father was currently angry.
Yana looked at her husband's attitude that changed 180° from three weeks ago, even more irritable.
Without saying goodbye to her or her two sons, her husband drove away.
He thinks positively, maybe a lot of work awaits him until, the mistake is also on him for being late home.
Yana could only let out a rough sigh, then went in to clean her body and her face that was filled with ice cream.
“Dek, tomorrow we can buy again. Don't cry anymore yes,” Diki said attentively.
“Deva, Mama will buy it for you. Mama change clothes first,” said Yana persuaded her son to stop crying.
Deva shook her head.
“Deva doesn't want ice cream anymore, Ma. Forgive Deva, Ma. Papa was angry with Mama,” he said he approached his mother and hugged his mother.
Yana's heart was sliced at her son's words, because Deva first saw her father that angry.
“Honey, sorry Papa yes. Papa cape because of a lot of work,” said Yana softly.
Deva looked to nod.
“Alright, now you guys change clothes first. After that, Mama will cook your favorite food.”
Deva looked back, the little boy was so easy to laugh when he had just cried.
At night, like any ordinary woman. He prepared dinner for his little family.
However, it is time to go home from work. But she did not find her husband coming home.
“What Mas Dian overtime?” he murmured in the heart.
Deva and Diki seem to eat first, because after eating they have to learn.
With a worried heart, Yana took her mobile phone intending to contact her husband. However, the ringing sound of the phone was heard in the living room and lying on the table.
“Mas Dian did not bring his phone,” muttered he took the phone.
In her mind, she wanted to see the contents of the phone, whether her husband was hiding something to make it instantly change.
Yana ventured to open it, with a trembling hand checking the contents of the phone. For the first time she opened her husband's cell phone.
There was nothing strange about the phone, he put it back on the table.
The sound of the roar of a car that stopped in front of the house, it was confirmed if it was her husband.
Yana immediately opened the door to welcome her husband's arrival as usual.
“Mas, how are you getting home late? Many jobs?” asked Yana directly, because she was ordinary like that.
“Yes, all this is because of you! I got a warning letter for being late to the office!” he went into the house without caring about Yana.
Again Yana gave a rough sigh, Yana did not want to stay silent. She followed her husband's steps straight into the room, before she glanced at the dining table her two sons had finished their dinner.
“Mas, why are you so angry like this?” yana asked into the room and locked the door.
“You still ask, Yana? I told you before!” his jolt.
“Not it, Mas.”
“Then what?!” asked her husband to look at her sharply.
“Why did it change? we just celebrated our wedding day! Is there something wrong with me? Say, don't change like this,” said Yana started sobbing.
“Stop throwing away those tears,” he said weakened, then pulled his wife into his arms.
“Sorry, I'm just a lot of work. There was a little problem in the office,” he still hugged his wife who looked sobbing in his arms.
Yana nodded, she firmly believed in her husband. It is impossible for her husband to do such a strange thing out there, because it has been ten years living the household without any temptation coming his way, thought Yana.
