CURTAINS OF THE PAST

WHAT IS?

Along the way to his house, Iffah never once let out his voice.

Somehow, at that time he wanted to fall asleep in the car that took him with Toni until he found the answers to all his bumps.

The words that the middle-aged woman said just now continued to haunt her mind. He was only able to shed his tears at that moment.

"Iffah, what's up? Was it a mistake for me to take you to Arjuna's funeral?" Tony panicked and blamed himself.

He always believed it was his fault.

But what's up?~ Toni kept asking, until that question remained a shame in her mind.

"I just want to get home quickly, Antoni. That's all I want right now." Reveal Iffah on the sidelines sobs her tears.

"Are you not hungry? You haven't eaten yet." Tanya Toni tried to make Iffah forget the item for a moment about what made her beautiful wife cry at that time.

Iffah. "I'm not hungry, Antoni. Can we get home soon?." Iffah asked again while looking at her husband's plea.

Toni noticed Iffah's slightly moisturizing face, red eyes and still looking ready to flood her chubby cheeks.

"I'll do it, yeah. You calm down, and don't cry anymore. I beg..." Pinta Toni. Sometimes he stays focused on the wheel.

Iffah rubbed her cheeks rough while nodding, but her tears continued to roll even though she had tried to hold back her sadness at that time.

Toni took Iffah's right hand with her left. He rubbed the back of his wife's hand.

Slowly, Iffah felt the comfort of Toni's soft finger swab. He began to nod and closed his eyes that felt sore at that moment.

Did she know Iffah and know everything that happened? ~ Inner Toni.

Toni again normalized the pace of his car when he felt Iffah had really fallen asleep by then.

*****

Toni and Iffah finally arrive at their residence.

Toni kept staring at his wife who was still sleeping on the bench next to him at the time. He had absolutely no intention of waking up Iffah who looked exhausted all day.

What makes you this hurt? Why do you not want to talk to me? What do I mean in your life?~ Toni just kept staring softly at the face of Iffah who was so calm in her sleep.

"Yes, I'm here." Toni's voice soon. He looked so happy when Iffah mentioned his name.

Toni gently stroked Iffah's cheeks and gently kissed the Iffah's wide forehead. That part he really likes.

Slowly, Iffah opened her eyes that were more moist. "We've arrived?" He asked as he raised his head and looked around.

"Had, just now." Tony's a little bit of a lie. He did not intentionally want to wake Iffah earlier.

"Oh, yes, I have. I'm down, yeah." Iffah immediately opened the side door.

Just now that Toni was about to prevent it, Iffah had jumped up first and ran into the luxurious house that had not been waiting for him for so long.

"Assalamu'alaikum's chat..." The thrill kept running in. Even he was not aware of the existence of Bobi and chellin who were relaxing in the main room at that time and even had time to say hello.

"Assalamu'alaikum's chat..." Toni, the last one in, tries to catch up with Iffah, but is immediately arrested by Bobi. They felt there was something wrong with the attitude of Iffah at that time.

"Toni... Toni..." Call Bobi while standing up to prevent Toni's move.

"Eh. Pa, Ma... Sorry Toni's too focused on Iffah..." Riled.

"Is everything okay, son?" Chellin asked worriedly.

"It doesn't seem to be for Iffah, Ma. And Toni didn't know what happened to her from the moment she met someone in her village." Toni lirih. His face looked sad at that moment.

"Is it possible that Iffah already knew the true story?" After Chellin, Toni turned to the woman she called her mother. He felt scared when it really happened.
