But not Me

A comfortable home

"Mas, why?" ask Dara to her husband.

Right now the virgin and Bagas are in their room, watching Kai, their baby who is sound asleep, and, as if to give space and time for both parents to talk about all the things that happened over the past few weeks.

After Kamila's expulsion from their house this morning, until this afternoon there has been no discussion of anything about it, either from Dara or Bagas, they both seemed to be cooling down in their own ways, until Dara finally felt ready and it was time to open a conversation with her husband.

"What's the reason?"

"Why do you keep to yourself about all this, why do you let me think bad, mean and hate you, why don't you tell me all this, so I don't have to judge you so badly? Am I not your wife? I'm willing to help you, but you're fighting and sacrificing alone" said Dara.

"Honey, I'm a man, I'm a housekeeper, a husband and father, there's nothing else I want to give to my wife and children but happiness, let all my troubles and difficulties bear it myself, I am capable and I certainly try to be able, I have given you too much pain first, and it will be my regret until I die, I don't want to add to it all, you deserve and deserve to be happy." Urai Bagas, occasionally his hands stretched out to wipe the tears that fell on his wife's smooth cheeks.

"Am I wrong? Or I hurt you again until you cry like this, hem?" tanya Bagas who was getting busy wiping away the tears of Dara that was getting rushing.

Dara just shook her head slowly, no, not because she was hurt by the reason she was crying at the moment, but because she felt so guilty about her husband for his bad thoughts.

"forgive me, I have already thought that your non-existence, I have also prejudiced very badly for your kindness to Kamila, too, I don't know if what you're doing is fighting for our little family, I'm sorry" Dara said in her sobs.

"Just apologise and regret?" ask Bagas.

"How do you want me? What do I want to do?" great-grandson Dara.

"I want you to stay by my side, don't go, forget that ridiculous deal, we start all over again from scratch, isn't it too late for us to get to know each other again? Let's go get a date!" bagas said as he smiled his smile.

"Mas, we're married and have children, have you forgotten!" dara Cebik.

"Halal dating seems cool!" Bagas blinked one of his eyes flirtatious, it made Dara feel amused to see it, how not, seeing Bagas who was usually firm, stiff and cold suddenly act flirtatious like it felt strange!

"From now on forget the deal, forget also the intention that you will leave me, believe me I will not let you go for the second time of my life, because if you keep going, even if you keep going, I'll chase you even if you hide in any part of the world, I won't let you just run away from me." Bagas hugged Dara's body and drowned her in his chest.

There was no resistance from Dara as Bagas repeatedly kissed the top of his head very deeply, it was as if there was a very longing for his wife who was no longer in contact when she expressed her feelings through her body language.

"I'm not going anywhere, because I've found a comfortable home for me and for our son, I just realized that your embrace is the most comfortable home for me and the Emperor. Thank you for sacrificing and fighting for us, I will try to be a lover and a good wife for you, because I feel like I'm starting to fall in love with you, please stay this way, don't change." Dara wrapped her hands around Bagas' waist and hugged the man tightly for the first time.

"Surely, you may keep my promise, I will not change, as long as my life and body are still united, then my life is only to make you happy."

Bagas unraveled their embrace, kept Dara's body from his chest, long he looked at the face of his wife's face which now had eyes moist because it continued to cry, the palms of Bagas framed his wife's face on the sides of his right and left cheeks, as soon as his face approached, and her lips landed just above Dara's red lips which spontaneously slightly opened her lips that had been tightly gritted, unknowingly the woman welcomed her husband's warm and tender kiss, the first kiss without coercion, without hatred, without emotion and anger, but a loving kiss now blossoms between the two.

"Aren't you scared anymore?" whispered Bagas when their pagutan detached.

"Oh yeah, how did Kamila know about our deal, did you tell her?" dara asked, it seems like it has been very disturbing since earlier, how could such an important thing her husband just say to Kamila.

"I've never told anyone, only me you and Panji know, and I'm sure that Panji won't tell anyone about this either, do you know about the deal?" Bagas instead asked back with a frowned confused.

"Hemmh," Dara answered briefly while nodding, now she was just as confused, if not from the three of them, then from whom Kamila knew.

"Ah yes dear, I am also still very curious about the story of how you can disappear while in Bali, and keep us apart for a very long time, he said, you should know that it was a very painful moment for me." asked Bagas, he suddenly remembered the disappearance of Dara, he asked, he asked, but he did not get any answers from his wife.

"Oh that, maybe it's time I told you about the real problems that happened there and about my suspicions at--"

Tok,,, tok,, tok,,,!

"Dec,,, grandfather, please open the door, hurry!" the sound of Yoga's screams stung from outside her bedroom door.

"Arrrggghhh, why is there always a disturbance when we are alone like this, just beware, Anwar I will cut his salary for letting people rise and disturb our togetherness, he said, don't know if Nahan missed almost four days!" upset Bagas who felt his precious time with his wife.

"Ishh, after all, I'm almost crazy because you didn't have any news that long,"

"I'm going to Singapore baby, taking the paternity test, I want the results to come out quickly so I do the test there." he said with you\=imik face is upset because when Dara just opened the door of his room, Yoga pulled his wife out without any trite or permission on him.

"Follow me deck!" said Yoga pulled Dara's hand as hard as possible so that his little sister followed his steps away from his bedroom where Bagas was now silent and restrained his anger and resentment, if only Yoga was not the older brother of his wife, it is certain that his brother-in-law who is much younger than him will be battered in his face, because he took his wife without saying goodbye.

"Sir, what are the servants below saying it's true that Kamila's kicked your husband out of here?" tanya Yoga with all to her god-level piety.

"Yes, what's the matter, brother?" astonished Dara because her brother looks so excited to hear the news that should have nothing to do with him.

"Wantas about the rumor that the baby in his birth is not the son of Mr Bagas?"

"It's not a rumor, brother, but it's a reality, because Bagas already proved it with DNA test results, and it was proven that the child was not his son Bagas" explained Dara.

"Oh, lilaka,,,,!" Yoga patted his eel on his own and squeezed his hair like confusion.

"What's that lilaka?" dara asked with both eyebrows that were linked because she felt very confused by the random behavior of her brother.

"It looks like it's my son, deck!" said limp.

"WHAT?!" shout Dara.
