Lily woke up from her sleep, as soon as she saw the clock was showing at two in the morning. He felt very stuffy, because Leon hugged him so tightly.
Given the problems that are being experienced suqnya now so heavy, there is no harm also if he woke Leon to perform the night prayer, praying that God could reduce the burden of her husband's mind.
"Leon.." Lily patted Leon's cheek slowly.
"Leon.. Wake, yuk..!" call him again.
Instead of waking up, Leon even further tightened his embrace. All night the man was completely unwilling to let go of the embrace.
"Leon.. Wake up..! We pray at night, yuk..!"
Suddenly Leon opened his eyes, he looked at Lily at the invitation.
"We pray at night, so that God will ease the burden of the problems we are currently facing," asked Lily once again.
Leon's still flinching. He had missed this service for years. So he doubted whether he still memorized prayer prayers or even had forgotten.
"Let's get up..!!" Lily pulls Leon's hand to get out of bed, but the man is reluctant to move.
"I can't, Ly," said Leon, leaving Lily glued to him. .
"You mean?" ask Lily.
"I almost forgot the reading, I haven't done it in a long time" Leon replied honestly.
Lily took a breath and then smiled.
"It's okay, we start again from now on. Just because you haven't done it in a long time, I'm sure you haven't completely forgotten the reading. Let's take wudhu now..!"
Lily pulled back Leon's hand, honestly still heavy, but Leon tried to obey what Lily said. Finally they took ablution in turn, after which began to perform evening prayers.
Lily kissed the back of the hand after saying her last greeting. Leon rubbed Lily's head gently.
"Call remember the reading, right?" ask Lily to make sure.
Leon nodded. "Just I stopped for a moment to remember" the man replied.
"It's okay to forget the reading is still reasonable, which is not a face if you forget the movement."
Leon presses the tip of Lily's nose slowly because the woman is mocking him.
"Where there is forgetting the movement, especially if the movement on the bed."
Now Lily is pressing the tip of the man's pointy nose. "Deeyahh.. You..!"
Leon chuckles.
"Then we pray first, ask God that we are always given ease in all matters. It is always and certainly grateful for what we have at this time," said Lily.
"Yes, honey. And what I'm most grateful for is having you" Leon said.
Lily put on a happy smile hearing her husband's expression. But he quickly closed his eyes and began to cast his do'a do'a on the Creator.

The next morning Lily asked for help bi Ratih to make more dishes. Because Lily planned to go to the police station to see her in-laws, but she hasn't told Leon.
"Who's that for?" leon asked as soon as he reached the dinner table to find Lily was putting food into a lunch box.
"I want to see your mom" Lily said.
Leon furrowed his brows. Honestly he wanted to say no first, because the condition of his mother is currently not okay. She doesn't want her mom to make Lily as hurt as she was before. But seeing the spirit of the woman made it unbearable if it had to ban her.
"Can I see your mom, Leon?" that was Lily's umpteenth question, because Leon had daydreamed to ignore the question.
"Yes, I can."
Lily looks more excited, Leon increasingly could not bear to see that face will turn into a look of sadness.
After breakfast, Leon and Lily leave for where their mother is now. They asked permission to meet with Emely, not allowed at first. Until finally Leon asked himself to meet his mother in the cell.
Emely looked up at the face as soon as she heard the sound of footsteps approaching. As soon as his face was raised, his eyebrows fused together and his anger flared up once his two beads found the figure of the woman he did not like.
"I brought food for my mom" Lily handed the box to Emely.
Emely tilted the corner of her lips. He took the lunch box. Incidentally, he has not eaten from yesterday because the food provided there does not make him tasteful.
Lily turned to Leon with a happy smile, thinking that her mother would refuse. Leon was astonished.
"Then you get out of here," Emely kicked out but in a normal tone.
"But-"
"Go from here and don't forget to come back every day with food!" pinta the middle-aged woman.
Lily and Leon stared at each other.
"Why? You mind?" exciting Emely.
"No, ma," Lily answered.
"Good, now you can go?"
Lily nodded, it didn't matter to her. With mama Leon willing to receive his food alone has made him relieved and happy.
"I'll go first, ma. Take care of yourself while you're here, yeah!" leon's message before he finally leaves with his wife.
Emely smiled grinningly at the passing of her son and daughter-in-law.
"At least I can use the food. Food here is like food for a cat" he said.
Emely opened the lunch box, there was rice and side dishes there.
"Lumayan," he murmured.
***
On the way home, Lily expressed her delight at Leon. After all, it could be a good start to their relationship.
"Although Mama Emely must now be in prison, but I am very happy if she has accepted me as her daughter-in-law" said Lily.
Leon turned to his wife at a glance. He feels the same. He hoped that his mother could change even better.
"Yes, baby."
Now the excitement slipped between them, only a car engine was heard. Suddenly, Lily's phone got an incoming message notification.
"From who?" ask Leon.
"Don't know, I'll read it for a second" Lily said.
08xxx:
Hi, Ly. It's me Hiko, I need a new employee to put in a restaurant. If anyone's looking for a locker call me right away, yeah!
"From Hiko," Lily replied without a burden.
While the ears of the man beside her felt hot upon hearing that name.
Leon takes Lily's phone and reads the contents of the message.
"Not to be answered, not important. It's just a mode to be able to chat with you," said Leon ketus.
"But I think Ridwan needs a locker again, this is good news for him" Lily said.
Hearing the name of another man again called-sef by Lily makes Leon increasingly hot. Why does Lily's friend have to be a boy?
"Who else is Ridwan?"
"My friend."
"From now on, don't be friends with men. Whatever the reason!" pinta Leon can't be bothered.
Seriate...
