" Boss sir, sorry the car hasn't been delivered to this day. They say for color it's stock from the factory just a little bit. Limited edition said. "remon said.

" okay. No pa-pa. I am not loving now. Next month aja." replied Boby still struggling with the work that had been left for days.

"My wife's motorbike has been brought home?"

" I'm sorry, boss, I was going to take you home, but the boss told me to go straight to school. "

" Oh yeah that's it."

" Good boss, I beg you to say goodbye. " Remon left the room.

Boby picked up the phone on the desk with his left hand, while his right hand still kept typing on the laptop.

Then she swiped the screen to unlock her phone. Looking for his wife's phone number.

" Hello Assalamualaikum. "

" Greetings waalaikum. Why did you ask Remon to take the bike straight to school?"

" Yes, make it home later."

" I can pick you up."

" Dad, your office is as far away as my school. Twice the road. I'll be home by 2. If you pick it up, then go back. You should go back to the office too. "

" No pa-pa. I can still. "

" It is mas. Problems like this just don't get serious. After marriage with you, I also went where alone. "

" Yes yes. But you're going straight home, right?"

" Want to stop by the supermarket. Mas, I'll hang up first, call him. I have to go to class now. Assalamualaikum."

" Yes, hail waalaikum."

Afternoon. After work, Novia busied herself some houses. And now he goes on to cook dinner. For three days he lived in Boby's house. And during those three days anyway, they always eat out, if not yes order via go food. Today she wanted to cook dinner for the two of them.

During these three days eating with her husband, she also noticed what kind of food she likes and what food she does not like.

Tonight he cooks fried chili, chapcay, and shrimp crackers. After the cooking show was over, she sent a message to her husband.

** What time is it at home? fill in a message Novia.

Not long ago, the message was answered.

** This is okay.

Since the husband was already on his way home, Novia immediately took a bath.

At exactly five in five minutes, Boby arrived home.

" Assalamualaikum.." said Boby when entering the house.

" Greetings waalaikum." replied Novia from within.

" How does the food smell. You've been pesen for dinner?"

" I cook by myself. "

" Why bother cooking everything Nov. Can be pesen. "

" During time eating food from outside is not good. Eat to cook yourself. More healthy. "

Boby walked to the fridge. He opened the door to get water. He was surprised to see the fridge full. Various vegetables, other cooking ingredients, to various types of snacks.

" Nov, how'd it get full of gini in the fridge? When will you cook yourself?"

" Yes to a time limit that I cannot set. From now on, I want to cook for myself. Yes, if you can eat out once in a while."

" Aren't you tired, after work keep cooking? Not to mention having to wash all clothes. You don't want to use laundry."

" Not so mas. This is the duty of a wife. Because for a while, here's what I can do for you."

" I never asked you to do any of this. You are here, I am happy. And I don't want to either, my beautiful wife until it's exhausted."

" Gold, you said we should try and help each other to cultivate love in our hearts. This is one of my efforts. Doing my duty as a wife. Guarding our household. People say, if we as a wife diligently at home, cook, some houses, then the husband will certainly be more comfortable living at home."

" Not you, I also feel at home. Who wouldn't stay home if you had a wife like you."

" Gombal is you. You want to take a shower, do you want to eat now?"

" Take a shower first. Odor asem .."

" Okay.i prepared the warm water first."

" I'm alone. "

" Dad..." Boby was silent. Since she has lived in the house, Novia has always served her. Prepare water for bathing, prepare a change of clothes, wash clothes, and much more.

After living in the house, Novia began to think that she was now officially Boby's wife. That can't be denied. Now he must see the present and the future. We have to forget the past. Everything about the past. Including about Candra. He must try to start accepting Boby in his life. Trying to love her husband so that his household will last.

Novia decides to be a good wife to Boby. Doing his duty as a wife. This marriage is one of his forms of worship.

After the need for a bath was all ready, Boby rushed to take a shower. When the bathing activity was over, the Maghrib sounding adhan. They decided to pray first to eat.

Tok.dok...Boby knocked on Novia's room door.

" Nov, can I come in?"

" Just go in."

Boby opened the room door and sat down next to Novia who was reading the Qur'an.

" What's wrong?"

" I want to read the Qur'an. Will you please accept it? Who knows if I was wrong in reading it. I haven't read my book in a long time."

Novia replied with a nod with a smile.

Then Boby began to open the Quran and read it. Novia patiently listened and occasionally confirmed if Boby was wrong in reciting it.

Not felt, sounding adzan isya reverberating. They decided to pray together with Boby as his priest. And for the next, they will also try to always congregate if they are together.

After they finished the gathering, they headed for the dining room. Novia took out a plate, then poured rice and side dishes onto Boby's plate. Boby is deeply flattered by Novia's treatment of him. Although there is no love in her heart, Novia still does her job as a wife well.

While eating, small talk is created between them. Dinner is over. Boby went into the room, then shortly returned to the kitchen. He approached Novia who was washing dishes.

Boby helps Novia put the finished dish in place. As the dishes had been washed away, Novia turned to the dining table to wipe the table.

" Sit here for a minute "take Boby.

Novia sat down in the chair next to Boby.

" This, you hold. You wear it for your needs. " Boby gave her a goldcard that she used to pay for jewelry for a proposal.

" No need to mas. " Novia refused because she felt she didn't need it.

" Nov, this is your right as my wife. "

" My salary is enough for my needs. "

" But you are my wife. My responsibility. My duty as your husband is to support you. You use this for your personal needs, for home purposes. "

" Mad, Novia doesn't want this card. Novia sure has a lot of it. Novia was afraid of missing" Novia said, recalling the time Boby paid for jewelry first.

" When it's gone, make another new one. Come on Nov, don't make me a husband who can't support his family. I work for you, for you now. Make us. And my work, my salary, is here. So this is your right."

" Mad, mending you give me cash only if you want to save me. If I go to the market, this card can be used. Entar mbok-mbok vegetable seller on confused."

Boby got up from his seat and went into the room. Not long after, he came back.

" This is, to shop to the market. " Boby handed over 5 million cash to Novia.

" Want to buy all the vegetables in the market using this much money."

" You are confused to know. Yes, you hold the money. You said you wanted cash, right?"

Novia. He took 2 million of that money. Than her husband was upset.

" I'll take this. This is enough for a month's vegetable shopping."

" okay. But you keep this card. " Boby is very pushy.

" Yes, you can buy anything. Rarely is her best husband like a gini. But if the contents run out, do not get angry." said Novia Becanda while taking the card.

" You calm down, next month I fill up again. Every month there's money coming in."

" Well, how much is this card?"

" Five billion." replied Boby lightly.

" What???" how shocked Novia was to hear the contents of the card. He closed his mouth in surprise.

Boby smiled at the surprised expression of his wife.

" Here, you keep it there. "

Doubtfully, Novia took the card and carried it to the room. When he got to the door, he turned around.

" Mad, tomorrow I ask permission, after work, I want to visit my students. "

" Is your student sick?"

" Yes mas. He's Dennis. His friend said he hadn't been to school in a few days. According to his permission he was sick. If it counts, he doesn't go to school after he comes to my house first."

" I'm taking you. You don't go alone."

" No need to mas. I can go by myself. You are busy too. "

" No. Anyway I'm bringing. Feeling a little bad after you said the boy. "

Noviemapun can only agree. Maybe it was true what her husband said. There could have been something he couldn't handle on his own.
