Heart Thief

Reacted

...****************...

"Mas." Rein cupped both of Aska's cheeks. Their eyes were locked in one look.

"Why?" ask Ask astonished by his wife's attitude.

"Let's open a new page! We forget all the mistakes we've made in the past. Now I understand, it is not good to live always locked in regrets. Most importantly, we must try to make the mistake is not repeated and never get tired of forgiving the mistake. Man is wrong and forgets, Mom. I don't know what our life is going to be like, but I just want to try to be the best wife for you." Rein rubbed Aska's cheek gently before she spoke again,

"If you always act like this, I'm afraid I'll be a wife to myself. Not that I do not want to be spoiled and loved, but I also have my own duties and responsibilities as a wife. I think it's too much, if you tell me to keep resting until six months after giving birth. I can get bored. I want our lives to go the way they are, Mom. Such as domestic life and ambu. They remain happy even though they treat Ambu not like the queen. You know, don't you, I mean?" Rein raised next to his eyebrows waiting for Aska's reply. The man was still flirting with his position. Looking at Rein with a confused look.

"Mas, stop feeling guilty about the mistakes of the past. Didn't you say that to me often?" Rein was anxious to see her husband just shut up.

"I'm sorry, honey. Maybe I'm too scared, but I'm really scared of losing you." Aska pulled the body into her arms, "but if that's what you want, of course I'm willing to do it. Thank you for wanting to be my best wife" Aska added. Aska only realized that what Rein felt, also felt by him now.

A happy smile rose on Rein's lips. She hugged her husband tightly. The gentle rubbing on the man's back made things a little disturbed. It seems like Aska's body reacted to getting such treatment. Aska hurriedly broke her embrace.

"Why, Mas?" rein asked, astonished to see Aska's face look different.

"It's okay. Go to work first, yeah. Later too late. Take a shower, there! Abis is breakfast. Mumpung Tara is still a henchman with her grandmother," said Aska. He stood up to leave, but stopped because his hand was held by his wife.

"Are you really okay, Mom? Your face is red. You feverish?" ask Rein curiously.

Aska's getting the wrong way. For months, he felt that. Resisting the demanding insistence on its already towering bottom. If in the past Aska often force, but not for now. Aska always does not have the heart when asking for his rations, even though his curiosity always arises if in contact with his wife.

Rein was sometimes astonished. Why does the husband always avoid if he wants to get a touch. As a normal woman, Rein also needed to be stroked. Rein had even prepared with the defensive weapons provided by the midwife. He said Rein had to set the birth distance.

"I'm doing fine. I have to go now. It's late." Aska let go of Rein's coiled hand in her hand gently. He left after landing a kiss on his wife's forehead.

Rein frowned, not understanding. However, a moment later he also realized, when he saw Aska justifying the position of his pants which suddenly became narrowed.

"Say the peeper again, Mom! Are you afraid that I'm going to turn down like I used to?" muttered Rein stared at Aska's missing back behind the door.

Daytime in rural areas is not as hot as in capital areas. Even though the sun is overhead, cool air can still melt the heat. The water in the pond rippled as the fish scrambled for food. Tara who was invited to provide feed for Bahar fish occasionally laughed cheerfully while staring at the pond. The baby was trying to get down to grab the fish.

"Don't mind, Kasep (bull)! You will be angry later. You, right, can't swim yet. Later, yeah. If it is big, you must have taught you to catch fish. Okay!" Bahar keeps Tara who is cornered trying to get down from her sling. He also walked away from the pool to the saung where he relaxed.

However, it makes Tara cry hysterically. The six-month-old baby did not accept her wishes being banned.

"Eh, uh, ambu grandson why cry? Are you the same as Abah?" Hearing Tara crying, Ranti approached, then grabbed Tara from Bahar's sling.

"Absolutely if the nudu. Abah ngapain own grandchildren," Bahar argued quickly, "Tara ngamuk want to go to the pool. He said he wanted to catch fish" Bahar said.

"Ah, time? Tara's mother can already say that," Ranti, then try to win her grandson again. Luckily the woman brought ammunition for her grandson, a bottle of formula milk that she deliberately brought. Rein was unable to provide exclusive breast milk for her child, due to being in a coma almost one month after giving birth. Do not be asked how the inner condition of Aska at that time. The man is like living a life of reluctance, not even dying.

"Mom, Abah."

"You're so neat, you want to go? Where are you going?" Bahar asked because she saw her daughter-in-law dressed up like never before.

"Yes, Rein wants to go to the hospital. Rein put Tara on for a second, yeah!" rein replied while commenting on a smile.

"Hospital? What are you sick with, Neng?" Ranti clamped down and felt worried.

"Rein doesn't hurt, really, Ambu. Rein just wants to check up on health. Rein hasn't checked in for a long time" Rein said.

"Oh." Ranti and Bahar heaved a sigh of relief, "who are you the same as? Aska, right, still in the office," asked Ranti again. He won't follow Rein driving by himself.

"Sama Mang Umar, Ambu. He said he'd go to town, send a fish."

"Yes, the Umar emang Abah told him to send a fish today" Bahar said.

"Aska knows, don't you?" Randy asked back.

Rein nodded his head, "Udah Rein told me through WA," he replied.

"If you're careful, yes, Neng. Later Aska can rampage if something happens to you. Must be Ambu who was wronged by him."

"Yes, Ambu. Rein will be careful. After all, who drove Mang Umar, not Rein himself," said Rein. Rein bent his body to bring his face closer to his son's face, then landed a kiss on Tara's puffer cheek.

"Mama go first, yeah, honey. Same with Ambu and Abah. Don't fuss!" the message was on Tara. The baby did not respond. Both of his eyes only stared at Rein's face, his lips still busy filling the unfinished ammunition in his bottle.

*****

Minutes change, minutes change hours. No time to turn until night. Today Aska is late to return home, because there are reports of new crimes that she must overcome as soon as possible.

Aska knocks on the door of the house, and is opened by her mother. Without talking, Aska went straight into her room. When the door opened, the room light was gone. A sign that its inhabitants are asleep in a dream. Slowly Aska walked, and took a change of clothes, then went to the bathroom to clean herself.

A while later Aska was done with her bathing ritual. How surprised he was, until both of his neutrals opened perfectly. Just talk like you can't. Aska seemed to run out of words, when he saw his wife lying on her side in thin clothes and lacking materials. His style was also made tempting. Aska swallowed saliva many times. His body reacted. Is he dreaming?
