Between Me and My Husband

Between Me and My Husband
Stay at the in-laws' house



The attack on my wedding that afternoon became a cry. After all, that afternoon Dipta also wanted to bring me back to the capital. Right now I am saying goodbye to my mother, I am sitting in front of her. Mother gave me some advice with eyes glazed2, she also repeatedly reminded me that now I have a husband so everything I do must be with permission from the husband. I just nodded, powerless to say a word.


After saying goodbye to my mother, I hugged my sister and advised her to study diligently and not to refute her words. I hugged my aunt, my aunt put my sister and my mother in order for my aunt to see them at home. Not to forget mbok Nah, the woman who lives a kara that we have considered her own grandmother, I ask for help to take care of my mother.


I got out of the house by dragging my suitcase. My family followed behind me just to see me go. I saw Dipta standing on the front porch of the house picking me up. He shone on my mother's hands when they got outside. I never thought Dipta mas even kissed the hands of mother, aunt, and mbok Nah Takzim.


"We go first, ma'am." First, walk towards the car. I just got behind him. When I got near the car, Dipta even helped me put my suitcase in the trunk of the car. I thought he was gonna be a bitch no matter what.


Our trip to the airport that afternoon was filled with awkwardness. Several times I lyrically Dipta who was driving a car, hoping he looked at me. But in fact my hope is only in vain2. And by gathering all my courage, I tried to open my voice to break this silence.


" pbu..mas Created?!" Call me, and it works. He looked at me for a moment, but before long his eyes immediately looked forward again.


"What's wrong?" He asked without looking at me again.


"What is Dipta's job?"


He was silent for a moment not answering.


"I'm architecture" he answered briefly. No feedback, no chatter developing, I don't know anything about the architect world. My mind was deadlocked, so I decided to continue the rest of the journey by staring out the windshield. I even involuntarily fell asleep, the effects of a night of sleep deprivation and waking up too early. As soon as I woke up, we were already in the airport area.


At 8pm, we finally arrived at Aunt Ratna's house. All the family members welcomed us, of course, minus Delia, which I don't know why she's never been seen. They returned to the capital shortly after they finished.


Aunt Ratna and om Dhani hugged me, even aunt Ratna kissed both of my cheeks. Dino just shook my hand with an unexpected laugh her childhood friend was now her sister-in-law. We are directly dribbled to the dining table, there is ready on the table a variety of appetizing dishes.


"Let's eat first, before you go in the room" continued Dhani who made me smile blush.


"What's your favorite food, Nia?" Aunt Ratna looked at me warmly.


"I'm the kind of person who doesn't refuse any food, auntie" I replied smiling.


"May you say he's an all-eater, ma" Dino chimed in with laughter from all of us.


"Dino, be polite to Kania. He's now your brother-in-law. And Nia, change your call, not om and aunt. Now I'm your mother." Aunt Ratna hummed our laughter. And the warning from Aunt Ratna made me realize that I had done something wrong.


"Well tan.emh good Ma.." I replied. Then the dinner event then continued while occasionally chattering full of familiarity.


Finished eating, Aunt Ratna who after this I call Mama urged mas Dipta to immediately take me to his room to rest immediately. Geez Ma. I know what you mean but don't expect much huh, your son didn't even once glance at me. I said, of course, only in my heart.


Mas Dipta finally took me to his room, a room located on the 2nd floor. The room that has been used so far, maybe there will also be a special smell of Dipta mas. I was pounding down every step of the stairs. I looked at the back of the field of the man who is now my husband. Will my head someday be able to lean there. Oh, my God, what do you expect Nia. Be grateful, for this marriage your mother recovered from illness do not become greedy! I'm warning myself.


Mas Dipta opened the door of his room and entered first before myself, when the light switch was turned on. I saw the whole room. Spacious room, with a large bed that looks soft in the middle of the room. There is a bookcase that sticks to the wall with several collections of books, a study table complete with a chair next to the shelf. Maybe that's where we learned. There is another shelf on the wall, containing barang2 typical collection of boys and some pictures with frames.


My suitcase was put by Dipta's mas near a large closet next to the mattress. While mas Dipta directly sat on the sofa while stretching his legs.


"Mas was created to take a shower first?" I asked to open my voice. I glanced at him for a moment.


After taking a shower, I saw Dipta still lying on the sofa with his smooth snoring. Looks like he's asleep. I doubtfully woke him up by calling him.


"Mas Created... Mas Dipta, wake up. Bathe first mas" call me, but it seems to have no effect at all. Then I slowly shook his shoulder while continuing to call out to him.


"Mas Dipta, wake up. Shower first!"


And finally there was a result, I saw the arm that had been covering his face slowly come down. His eyes then opened, gnashing at me. Before he finally got up dragging his steps towards the bathroom.


I heard the water gurgling was done, I did not see Dipta immediately come out of the bathroom. I didn't pay much attention to it, I was checking some messages on my phone when a voice called out to me.


Mas Dipta who was still in the bathroom I heard calling my name. To convince me, I approached the bathroom. Back to me, Mas Dipta's voice called me.


"Mas Dipta called me?" I asked in front of the bathroom door.


"Yes Nia, can you ask for help?" I heard the sound of Dipta dr in the bathroom.


"Solicit what please?"


"I forgot to bring a change of clothes, while the clothes were wet with splashes of water. Could you please get me my dress shirt in the closet, no?" He asked, his voice echoed a little because he was in the bathroom.


"Ooh.iya can, wait a minute yeah"


I walked to the side of the closet, I opened the closet doors one by one and started looking for clothes that are comfortable to wear at home. Finally I chose the origin, I pulled a white t-shirt and beige color pants.


"This is my mom" I knocked on the bathroom door, and before long it was seen the bathroom door was slightly open. One hand of Dipta's came out behind the door and immediately I handed him the clothes I was carrying.


A moment later, Dipta appears to start coming out of the bathroom. I've been sitting on the bed leaning against his backrest.


When the first night passed by pounding by a pair of brides. So not with us, it seems like I'm the only one pounding. Mas Dipta seemed to be casually walking towards the sofa.


"Not slept?" He asked when he saw me awake.


"A little while." Answer me


"Sleep, I'll turn off the headlights to make it comfortable to sleep." He said again and before long, the lights had changed to become more dim. I saw him grabbing a laptop and sitting on the couch.


"Mas Created himself does not sleep?" I asked, I saw that Dipta had turned on the laptop on his lap.


"I still have to check my work. Go to sleep first" he replied that had begun to focus on looking at the laptop screen. All right, I'll go to bed first. Happy work, and happy dreams. Tonight I can sleep on a soft, spacious bed. A thick blanket that warms from the cold air of air conditioning. Not long after, I finally fell asleep.


I woke up when I heard the sound of the dawn. I looked at the side where I was sleeping, because Dipta wasn't there. When I looked on the sofa, I saw her figure sleeping there. My heart breaks, does he fall asleep or does he accidentally sleep there?
