Andira & Axello. (Fouled)

28. Thought your responsibility.

In one room, a man was looking through the financial statements of the cafe he founded about two years ago. For almost a week he did not come to the cafe because he was busy with school and his wedding. Who else if not Axello.

Axell is so serious when reading every financial statement, ranging from income, expenses, profits and others. Until he finally remembered what his best friend had said to him.

"Gue didn't think, Lo. For me, everything is enough. Now I have a responsibility to someone. And Lo... I don't care anymore." Axell.

Ah... Whatwasthat? Responsibility? Ah yeah. Axell remembered that he was no longer a free man. She is now a husband of people. According to him, the past is no longer important to him.

Suddenly Axell remembered about the girl, Dira, the girl he had just married for a day. Earlier he had heard bi Sumi who said he was afraid of Dira being tired and ended up having a recurrence of his pain.

'What pain is he?'Inner Axell asked.

Axell sighed softly, considering how closed Dira was to him. Given the status of the two who have become husband and wife, there should be nothing to cover up, right? But Axell understood, and he didn't want to demand anything here. After all, the relationship is still very new. It's natural that Dira chose not to tell her about her life.

"Well I'm here for two hours, I have to go home!" Breakup Axell.

...***...

When Axell got home, he immediately entered Dira's room which is now his room as well.

🎶 Fly me with blue sea...

Flap your little wings without hesitation...

I know how much I'm not....

Compared to your heart's sincere and stretched...

As he was just entering the room, Axell faintly heard a melodious voice coming from the balcony of the room. Axell approached the source of the sound it was coming from.

I'm taking you across the constellations...

On a cold night, he was reluctant to disappear...

Take my hand let's sail...

I give you a deck full of radiating warmth...

Let our minds be different...

What matters is the rhythm...

We ran perches spinning across...

In the same sky we are one hm ye...

Axell noticed the girl singing so sweetly. Axell really enjoyed the song that Dira sang. It was as if he had forgotten about what Verrel had said to him earlier. Suddenly a review was clearly visible from the corner of Axell's lips.

Let me say the word love...

For the universe to hear the roar of the waves...

Which moves across our veins...

Who beats while we look into the eyes...

Joking with laughter...

You said...

Let our minds be different...

What matters is the rhythm...

We ran perches spinning across...

In the same sky we are...

One...

Jua...

One...

Jua...

One jua ye...

Let go of all your fatigue...

Dance with...

Promise me you're happy...

I'll hold our story...

Let it stay forever...

Let our minds be different...

What matters is the rhythm...

We ran perches spinning across...

In the same sky we are...

In the same sky we are...

Just as Dira finished singing, Dira's phone rang. Lazily, Dira grabbed the phone she had placed on her side table.

📲 Nayla is Calling...

Instead of directly receiving the call, Dira instead thought, what answer he would give to the question that Nayka would ask him.

"Hello, Nay."

"(....)."

"Gue's at home again. Why emang?"

"(.)." Suddenly Dira patted his own eel after hearing what Nayla said. And it did not escape Axell's sight. The man seemed to pull one eyebrow as if asking, Why did Dira pat her own eel?

Axell pulled one corner of his lips to see the behavior of the girl he had just married one day. His head shook slowly, as he knew, Dira was lying to her best friend.

'Funny.' Inner Axell.

"Relax Naylaku, zheyeng. I'm going to school tomorrow."

"(...)."

"OK, bye..."

Tutt...

"Huuf... Almost, my release." Said Dira quietly while stroking her own chest as soon as the phone call from nayla ended. It was so good because Nayla believed in him.

"Well?" Axell asked suddenly and successfully made Dira surprised.

"Sister Axell." Lirih Dira while again stroking her chest.

"Sorry, you're shocked, aren't you?" Axell asked who felt guilty. While Dira just shook his head slowly.

"Why are you home, Dir?" Axell asked to know. When I got home from the cafe, Axell went straight to Dira's room. And did not see papa Pras.

"No idea, brother. I didn't leave the room." Answer Dira.

"Yes already. Come home, tell me!" Axell said then went to the bathroom.

"Yes, brother. Dira answered and walked closer to the wardrobe and prepared a change of clothes for Axell.

Like what Mama Diva once said, if Dira status is now a wife, then as much as possible she should be able to prepare needs for her husband. Including preparing a change of clothes for Axell who was bathing. Axell never asked for it.

After preparing a change of clothes for Axell, Dira rushed out of the room. Because soon Axell is done with his bath and will definitely come out of the bathroom to change clothes. He remembered, Axell had only brought a towel when he went to the bathroom. And Axell will come out with a bare-chested state like yesterday. Dira is not used to this.

As Dira walked down the stairs, Dira passed by Mama Diva and papa Pras who had just returned home.

"Lho... Mama, how come you've come home? He said there was business in Bandung? How much cepet?" Said Dira with a series of questions coming out of his mouth. As far as Dira, it was on the phone mama Diva said that maybe new afternoon will arrive home.

"Papa Sama did not go to Bandung, dear. Papa's client came here." Papa Pras replied calmly.

"O..." Dira nodded his head understanding.

"Where's your husband, baby?" Ask Mama Diva who didn't see Axell.

"Again in the room, ma. Take a shower." More." Answer Dira as is.

"Yes, mommy's just gonna go to the room for a second, baby." Mama Diva.

Just like mama Diva and papa Pras, now Dira also headed to her room.

Chequek...

Dira went into the room, but he did not see Axell. The bed looks empty. Dira then switched to tapping on the bathroom. He thought maybe Axell wasn't done with the bath. But when he saw his bed earlier, the change of clothes he prepared for Axell was no longer there. That means Axell Sudak is wearing it. Then where is that man now?

"From me?" Axell asked who suddenly appeared from the balcony of the room. Dira looked up and nodded his head.

"Papa's gone home, brother." Said Dira telling.

Axell nodded his head understanding, "OK, thank's." Axell answered and walked out of the room to see Papa Pras, his father-in-law.

Axell walked casually down the stairs to the living room where the Dira family usually gather to just watch TV or relax.

"All by yourself son, where's Dira?" Ask papa Pras who happens to be sitting in front of the TV.

"Tire again in the room, pa." Answer Axell politely. Papa Pras just smiled at Axell's reply.

"Pa, someone wants Axell to say to me." Axell said in the same tone.

"What's up with Axell? Just tell me, don't hesitate!" Papa Pras replied calmly.

Without wasting any time, Axell immediately made his point. "Look, pa. Tomorrow Axell and Dira are in school. Given the distance from the house further than the apartment, Axell intends to invite Dira to live in the apartment, pa. That's if you let me." Axell.

Not directly answering, Papa Pras was silent for a moment as if thinking. Axell who saw the reaction from Papa Pras was doubtful that his in-laws allowed Dira to stay with him in the apartment.

"Son Axell, Dira is now legally your wife. In the outline of Dira has become your responsibility. After a girl gets married, her parents' responsibilities have changed hands with her husband. So now you have the right to take Dira anywhere with you." Papa Pras.

Axell nodded his head understanding, in fact he was also as thoughtful as papa Pras. What is wrong with asking permission? That's a sign Axell appreciates the decision of his in-laws, right.

"Son Axell, can you ask for something with you?" Papa Pras said to his only son-in-law.

"What, pa?" Fast Axell.

"Papa knows, you actually married Dira just because you were forced to agree to a matchmaking agreement that you had agreed with your father... But I hope you can take good care of Dira. Dira is papa's only biological daughter. So papa asks, you can be responsible for everything that concerns Dira. Remember son Axell, although your marriage is based on arranged marriage, but your relationship is not kidding." Papa Pras.

'No kidding. Yeah, pa. Axell agreed with what papa said.' Inner Axell.

"Axell understands, pa. Without asking for anything, Axell would definitely take good care of Dira. It's just that Axell has not been so familiar with Dira. It took time for Axell and Dira to get to know each other." Axell replied calmly.

A smile emerged from the lips of papa Pras after hearing what Axell said. So serene. Papa Pras could see, what Axell had said just now was solemnly coming out from within his heart. Axell is a young man who has mature thinking. Papa Pras believes Axell can keep and make Dira happy, later.

"But, pa. Axell has one request...

...***...

After Axell made his point and said goodbye to his two parents-in-law, Axell actually took Dira away with him. In accordance with what he said to papa Pras earlier, if he wanted to bring Dira to live with him in the apartment. And now both are on their way to Greenland Residence, Dira Apartment and Axell.

Silent and awkward. That is the feeling that surrounds both. Neither Dira nor Axell, neither word came out of them. Axell broke the silence between them.

"Where, Dir. Do you mind staying with me in the apartment?" Axell asked who was staring at Dira at a glance while focusing on driving.

Dira turned to Axell and looked back at the road in front of him, "No, brother." Answer Dira slowly.

"Lo doesn't feel forced, does he? Mumpung not far away, I can put back." Axell asked who convinced Dira's decision.

"No need, brother." Dira replied, rejecting Axell's offer. When she was at home, Dira hesitated to accept Axell's invitation to live together in the apartment. But now she is convinced by the decision she took, given the status of Axell who has become her husband, she must obey Axell's wishes including living with him.

The two reached Dira's apartment. Earlier Axell asked Dira to pick up some necessities for Dira school tomorrow.

"Here's Lo's stuff, let me take it!"
