Don't Separate Me

Don't Separate Me
Little bit of a lie



From Fitri's house, Salma and Burhan go straight to their house. It looks like Burhan's mom and dad are sitting in the family room chatting and watching tv. Burhan's mother looked at Burhan with curiosity as to where the two of them had been all day.


"Burhan, you just got home? All day work holidays are not at home?" Burhan's mother asked disregarding Salma beside Burhan.


"You're from Fitri Ma's house. Poor him at home there are no family members accompanying him. She's pregnant, anyway." Answer Burhan.


"Ohh!" Burhan's mother replies that she doesn't care about Burhan and Salma anymore.


Seeing that his mother would not ask him again, Burhan invited Salma to go to the room to clean up.


"Come on!" Invite Burhan to pull Salma's hand.Salma just remained silent as usual in front of her mother-in-law. By following Burhan from behind.


Arriving in the room, Burhan threw his body into a bed. While Salma sat on the edge of the mattress with a sense of anxiety. Burhan who knew his wife's anxiety became worried.


"You why? What are you thinking? Did something happen?" Burhan asked, looking at Salma, her body still lying on the bed.


"Nothing is wrong." Salma shook her head and dared not look at Burhan.


"I can't believe it. What was? Tell me?" Burhan asked again forcing Salma to tell him a story.


"There's nothing what Mas. Maybe I'm just tired." Salma answered, still not daring to look into Burhan's eyes.


"You don't lie. I know you're lying right now. Every time you lie you won't dare look me in the eye. And now that you don't dare look at me, that means you're lying. Tell me what's going on?" Burhan's words still force Salma to tell him what's wrong with him.


"I'm just scared, Mom." Reply Salma.


"What are you afraid of?" Ask Burhan again.


"I'm afraid what if Mama realizes that my pregnancy is fake?" Salma asked back.


"You take it easy, it'll be over soon. And there's nothing else you need to be afraid of." Burhan replied, calming Salma.


"You just calm down. Everything will be fine as long as we keep this secret well." Burhan replied, still trying to calm Salma's heart.


Actually Burhanpun was afraid if his secret was revealed by his family. He did not dare to imagine the consequences of his lies.


"You know, you know, our lies are not worth forgiving? If we find out what's going to happen to our marriage?" Salma asked uneasily. Without realizing it, her tears just flowed.


Seeing Salma crying, Burhan got up and sat down in front of Salma.


"Already! You don't have to think about what you don't. Right now we just need to keep our secrets from being exposed by Mama and Papa. We still have to look after it for the sake of our smooth relationship." Burhan held Salma's shoulder and convinced her to stay strong in the face of all this.


"I'm afraid of you." Salma's reply was agitated.


"You don't be afraid. There I am. As long as there's me, there's nothing you need to fear." Burhan hugged Salma.


Salma returned Burhan's embrace tightly because of her fear that never disappeared. After feeling that Salma had calmed down a bit, Burhan let go of his embrace and told Salma to take a bath to get fresher.


"Band. To make your mind fresh." Burhan told Salma to take a shower.


Salma just nodded her head.


"Do you need to shower together?" Burhan God.


"Massa!" Shouted Salma feeling annoyed.


"Yes yes sorry! Take a bath. I'll lie down for a while and take a shower after you." Burhan smiled sweetly.


Salma went to the bathroom to take a bath, while Burhan laid his body and closed his eyes waiting for Salma to finish bathing. After Salma finished the bath, cast Burhan to take a bath.


After they finished their bath, they went out to dinner with their family. His mother and father were waiting for them to eat.
