Dilemmas In Marriage

Chapter 16 resolves misunderstandings

Evi's eyelids twitched slowly, the bright shining sunlight coming into her room. The woman opened her eyelids until she could see the beautiful sunshine this morning. The sound of birds chirping was accompanied by chicken cocktails around.

Evi straightened her body while stretching both hands upwards. He looks to the side and does not find Aji in the room. As the woman's thoughts drifted further, she worried that her husband would change and move away from her. Moreover, lately she rarely dress up because it may be congenital from the baby.

Just as Evi was about to get off the bed, she frowned.

"What's this?" Evi picked up a bouquet of roses that were on the lamp table. There was a small piece of paper and it was a letter from Aji.

Evi immediately opened the letter, she read it slowly in her heart.

'Morning, My Wife. Sorry because last night I was late to go home, the customers at the restaurant were very crowded and I couldn't possibly let my men work alone. Oh yes, my dear. Why don't you eat the food I bought for you? Isn't that your request? Do I have any wrong? I feel bad because last night I saw that package of rujak on the table. If I have something wrong, then speak up. The problem will not be solved if both parties are silent. I'm waiting for you downstairs. Eits, I'm asking you not to get angry or smile after reading my letter. Do you know why? Because your smile can beat the beautiful sun this morning. Love Evi Andirana's.'

Instantly Evi's smile immediately expanded, her husband was really very difficult to say romantic. Yes, the woman was quite happy because Aji felt guilty like this.

"That my mind was wrong, I shouldn't be so bad at my own husband. Believe me, Mas Aji is not that bad." muttered Evi slowly while smelling the scent of roses in front of her.

His eyes were instantly sidetracked when he heard the sound of objects falling from the kitchen. The woman immediately got out of bed and walked quickly out of the room. He was also very careful down the stairs because he thought about his fetus.

"Gosh, Mas!" evi yelled as she ran small towards Aji, who was crouching in front of the stove stove while holding her leg.

"Oh my goodness, my. What are you doing?" Evi helps her husband stand up, she leads Aji slowly to sit on the chair.

Evi looked at Aji's slightly blistered legs, she looked at her husband with a feeling of worry.

"Why bother being in the kitchen? Isn't there a Bi Nani?" evi asked a little annoyed.

"Sorry, Honey. I was planning on cooking soup for you."

"Gosh, Mas. I can cook it myself or not ask Bi Nani for help." Evi walked up to get the medicine box.

The woman returned with what she was looking for, crouched down to treat the blister wound on Aji's leg. However, the man quickly restrained Evi's shoulders from bending over.

"Wake up," Aji's pinta gently interspersed with a sweet smile.

"But, Mas. It—"

"God! I said get up, you don't do that."

"We can treat it on the sofa later, you do not need to bend and crouch like before. I feel sorry for our baby and for you."

Evi feels that Aji's reasoning is excessive, but she doesn't want to comment because this is the first time Aji has a child. Maybe it makes her too possessive and worries about Evi and her baby.

"Why?" tanya Aji cupped Evi's face, their eyes were against each other.

"Why, that means?" Evi asked back.

"Darling, yesterday you asked Rujak, but why didn't you eat it? Is something wrong?"

Evi was speechless, to be honest he was very lazy to discuss this matter.

"Huft, forget it, Mas." pinta Evi lowered her gaze.

"Look at my eyes, Evi. I got it wrong? Or is the potion not what you want?"

"I'm disappointed that it wasn't you who gave me that gift." Evi looks sad and lethargic.

Aji smiled cutely, she pulled an angry nose belonging to Evi. "Dear, I'm sorry. All because I had an important meeting with a duck supplier at my restaurant."

"That important? In fact, more important than us? Me and your son,"

Aji shook his head quickly. "Why do you think that?" he continued, explaining to Evi, what the supplier said until Elena finally delivered Evi's order.

The woman listened carefully, she even fell silent while thinking and digesting the words for the sake of the words Aji said.

"So I'm really sorry. All right, I'm not gonna repeat it. I promise, no matter how important the meeting is, I'll postpone it for both of you." Aji stroked Evi's stomach with one hand, while the other, she held out her little finger to make a promise.

Evi smiled thinly and returned a shout from Aji. They hugged each other and the man kissed Evi's already bloated stomach.
