Jacob And Alesha: Mafia

Initiating Approach

Trings.... Trings... Trings....

Jacob's cell phone rang aloud as a sign of an incoming call. Jacob quickly picked him up for fear of disturbing his wife who was deep asleep.

"Hallo, Taylor, how? "

"I've contacted Mr. Thomson, and explain everything that happened to Miss, Mister, and Mr. Thomson also contacted Mr. Frank asks for permission so that Mister, and Miss can stay for a while at WOSA until Miss's memory returns little by little. "

" Then how? Did Mr. Thomson, and Mr. Frank gave permission? "

" Yes, sir, they gave permission, Master, and Miss can occupy the room that you used to occupy when you were a mentor at WOSA. "

Jacob exhaled, and smiled happily. Finally, he was able to take Alesha to WOSA.

"Alhamdulillah..." Jacob Mumbled.

"Well, Taylor, thank you for helping."

"Together, Master, it is my duty to help, Master, and Miss." Taylor sounded so friendly.

"In that case, prepare your flight schedule, I want to go to WOSA tomorrow as soon as possible."

"Good, Sir."

"Yes, then I turn off the connection. Thanks again, Taylor."

"Yes, sir, equally."

After that, the phone connection was cut off.

Jacob put his phone back on the nightstand and then he turned to look at the peaceful face of his wife, Alesha who was sleeping so quietly.

Finally, I can see your peaceful sleeping face again, Alesha. I miss this so much..... Jacob said in his heart. His fingers moved slowly, playing Alesha's perfectly curved lashes.

"Mine," Jacob muttered with a charming smile. "I love you, Lil Ale," Jacob moved slowly closer to his wife. He intends to embrace the minimalist body that he misses so much.

With great care, Jacob raised his arm to clutch Alesha's body. Little by little, Jacob carried Alesha in his arms.

So comfortable.....

This is what makes Jacob miss every night when he still does not know the whereabouts of his wife.

"I miss you, Alesha...."

Cup...

One brief kiss landed on the side of Alesha's cheek. Jacob kissed her tenderly.

"Eungh..."

Jacob choked.Alesha's body suddenly wriggled in his arms.

Geez! Is Alesha going to rebel, and stay away from her again? Jacob's heart was pounding at this moment. Hopefully not, Jacob still wants to hug his wife's body.

"Hmmm...." Alesha, who was in an unconscious phase, continued to wriggle her body, seeking more comfort that she was now feeling.

Warm....

Comfortable......

After being felt to find the right position, Alesha's body finally stopped moving. Her face is right in front of her husband Jacob's chest.

Alesha falls back to her subconscious, and enters into the world of her dreams unaware that the warmth, and comfort she feels comes from the arms of her forgotten husband.

Jacob, who felt the calmness of his wife, pulled the blanket slowly. He thought Alesha was cold.

"You feel comfortable, huh? Hmm," Jacob smiled. He immediately enveloped Alesha's body curled up in his arms.

It feels so happy. Jacob is very grateful to be able to feel the back of the cracks with his wife, Alesha. He was not even stopping to look at the face of his beloved sweet while continuing to give a faint caress to the cheek area.

There was no sleepiness that touched Jacob. He was too busy to stay awake to feel the twitching of every second, minute, and hour he passed with his beloved wife.

"One year more, Alesha. You disappeared, and it freaked me out. I thought you left me, but I was wrong. You didn't disappear because of your wishes. I promise to take care of you, and if Dirga shows up, then I won't hesitate to finish him off because he killed our son, and made you amnesiac. I will not let Dirga live happily after what he has done to our family, Alesha," Jacob muttered.

"Goddessa...." Jacob's expression turned soft. He remembered his eldest daughter who was now dead because of the actions of the priest*daban Dirga. "I've always missed my son, Alesha. We've lost Khalid, and we've lost Alshiba, our daughter, the proof of our love, Lil Ale," Jacob touched his forehead to his wife's forehead. "Rush, Alshiba..." Not noticeably, tears also appeared on both eyelids Jacob. "I'm sorry, I can't take care of you, and our son is kind, Alesha..."

...*****...

The clinking of an alarm on a tiny clock rang out loud, disperse the beautiful dream that was being created in Alesha's subconscious.

"Eungh..." Alesha squirmed, moving her body in search of a stretch while reaching for the tiny clock that still issued an alarm on the nightstand.

"Hmm, four o'clock past fifteen" muttered Alesha as she turned off the alarm at the tiny hour.

But briefly.

Alesha found an awkwardness.

Where's Jacob? She did not find the presence of the man who claimed to be her husband.

Then Alesha sat up, not forgetting that she had spread her gaze all over the room.

There aren't.

Where's that guy?

"You're looking for me, Lil Ale?"

A voice that sounded so soft shocked Alesha who was still overshadowed by the feeling of drowsiness.

Doorstep. Since when did Jacob stand there? Alesha did not see the open door.

"I've just taken ablution water, let's pray dawn together" Jacob said as he walked up to his wife.

Shayt dawn together? Alesha didn't listen wrong?

"What are you thinking, baby?"

"No-no" Alesha replied as she shook her head slowly.

"If so soon you take ablution, I wait for you here, we will pray dawn together" Jacob said.

Alesha who was still feeling confused finally chose to move from the top of the mattress and walk to the ablution place.

For a few minutes Jacob waited for his wife in the room with a heart that felt so calm. Again, Jacob could feel one more happiness by becoming a prayer priest for his wife after a year or so of separation.

"Have you heard, Lil Ale?" Jacob asked who had found Alesha back in the room.

"Yes," Alesha nodded slowly. He then grabbed his face, and immediately wore it so that he could quickly perform dawn prayers on time.

"Your face is slightly tilted, dear," Jacob approached Alesha, and slightly confirmed the position of the mother he had been wearing.

Oh, cute....

Alesha did not dare to look at Jacob because his face was hot, and one more, now Alesha again felt his heart that seemed to flower because of Jacob's sweet behavior to her just now.

"It has. Come on, let's start the prayer" Jacob said as he took up his position as the prayer priest.

"Yourf..." Alesha exhaled faintly. Fortunately Jacob did not see his face that might have been flushed because it felt hot.

The dawn service began when Jacob raised his palms and mentioned the name of the Creator's elegance and greatness.

Alesha who as a teacher also follows the movement of her faith and her husband in prayer.

About a few minutes of silence, and the residence took over the atmosphere. Jacob, and Alesha looked solemn with their prayers.

It feels so beautiful. For a year Jacob tried to hold himself back from falling into a depression again because he lost the news about Alesha, and now, he can again lead prayers for his beloved wife.

Although in reality, Jacob still had to be more patient because Alesha did not remember him.

"Assalamualaikum warahmatullaahi..... Assalamualaikum warahmatullaahi......"

After the obligation of dawn prayers was carried out. Jacob exhaled quietly and then turned his body. He stuck out his palm at Alesha.

Usually Alesha always kissed the back of Jacob's hand after they performed prayers.

But this time another response Alesha showed. His forehead immediately wrinkled confusedly looking at Jacob sticking out a hand at him. What Jacob meant was that he had to kiss the man's hand because he was his wife? Thought Alesha.

Jacob who found a mimic change in the look of his wife's face was now so moody. He knew, surely Alesha refused to kiss his hand.

All right, Jacob taught me that. It's okay if Alesha doesn't want to kiss her hand.

Slowly, Jacob folded the fingers of his right hand and pulled it back. However, a split second after that, Jacob's body slightly jolted because suddenly Alesha grabbed his right palm and kissed the back of his hand just like that.

Maybe this guy is my husband..... Alesha said in her heart.

Alesha simply gave an expressionless look back at Jacob.

"Thank you" Jacob's warm smile was now engraved on his face.

Alesha lowered her head, and slightly nodded.

Do you really think of me as your husband now, Alesha?..... Jacob said in his heart. She happy? Sure do. Alesha kissed his hand, it meant Alesha thought of him as a husband.

"We're leaving for WOSA this morning, Lil Ale," Jacob stroked his wife's cheek.

"This morning?" Repeat Alesha, slowly. He stared in disbelief at Jacob.

"Yes. We've got permission to stay there for a while until you regain your memory."

"I'm not sure, sir," Lirih Alesha. "At that time, when I woke up in the hospital I felt like something was missing from my memory, but Rangga said that if I had a small bump on my head that I lost a bit of my memory. But Rangga assured me that I didn't have severe amnesia, and he told me about all my past. Our parents, and my childhood. But Rangga didn't say anything about you, or about me being married."

" So you know you're amnesiac, Alesha?" Jacob stared at his wife's face.

" At first yes, because at that time I felt pain in my head, and did not remember anything while still in the hospital, but Rangga told me if the impact on my head erased a little memory, but only a little, just a little, then he told me about my childhood, and all about me. I didn't think I had severe amnesia, even though I still couldn't believe it. I still feel like I'm Lisha, because that's what Rangga told me about me."

Both of Jacob's palms began to clench, he began to re-feel anger towards Rangga. So Alesha knew that she had amnesia, but Alesha thought that her amnesia had only erased her memory.

What is a little? Alesha remembers nothing of herself, even she herself forgets her husband.

"What did Rangga tell you back then?" Jacob kept himself calm, and was as gentle as possible so that Alesha would not be afraid of him.

"He said if I fell down the stairs, and hit my head, then I was taken to the hospital. When I realized, I felt my head hurt, Rangga said it was the effect of the impact, but I did not remember anything at that time. I was also afraid of Rangga because I didn't recognize him, but he told me everything, and the doctor also said that I had mild amnesia that made some of my memories disappear."

"Then did you believe it, Alesha?" Jacob increasingly nailed his gaze to both of his wife's brown irises. He did not expect if it turns out that Rangga instigated the doctor who handled Alesha to lie as well.

"There was nothing I could do at the time, I thought Rangga was telling the truth, and I trusted him because he said you were my foster brother. I thought there was no way my family didn't know what was happening to me, and the person who was first there when I opened my eyes was Rangga, so I thought that she was a member of my family because she felt so familiar to me even though I still had a hard time knowing her."

"What did he tell you about that time?"

Alesha looked at Jacob's face. Why is that guy so curious? Thought Alesha.

"She said that I was her foster sister, our parents had died a long time ago, and since our parents died she was the one who took care of me."

"Didn't you remember your childhood, Alesha?" Cut Jacob.

"No, I remember it. I went to school at Negri Tiga Elementary School, and then I became friends with a man named Adam. He is my best friend" Alesha smiled. "Before moving here, Rangga often took me around Bandung. I remember when Junior High I loved playing in the square while selling."

"Did you remember when you were little Rangga was by your side, Alesha?"

Jacob's question just now instantly made Alesha stunned.

"Did you remember that your ummah's family used to be negative towards you and your grandfather?"

Waitaminute!

What kind of question is that?

For a moment, Alesha felt something was awkward. Does he remember when Rangga was always at his side?

Hey, what does that mean?

"Rangga said that he used to always take me to play, but when I was in the third grade of elementary school, he worked far away, and rarely came home" replied Alesha.

"Did you remember you had a time with Rangga when you were a kid?" Again, Jacob asks a question that makes Alesha feel like something is wrong with her memory.

"I don't know, I told you some of my memories disappeared! I remember some of my friends, and they even stayed away from me because I was very close friends with Adam! I remember that I used to sell by the side of the road after school! I remember that I used to take care of my late grandfather who was often sickly!"

"Your late grandfather did you say? He's alive, Alesha!" Jacob slightly raised his speech.

"Grandfather is alive?" Reload Alesha. "Grandfather Ujang?"

"Yes," Jacob nodded. "He's alive, baby."

"But Rangga said that Ujang's grandfather had died a long time ago" Lirih Alesha.

Jacob exhaled his breath violently. "Where did you get those memories?" Jacob confirmed his words.

"The ladder told me, and I remember that, too."

"Yourf!" Jacob exhaled his breath violently. Now he can conclude if Rangga is indeed little by little helping Alesha to get her memories back, but not all!

However, there was one more thing that Jacob caught. If Alesha could recall some of her memories because of the story that Rangga gave, it meant that Alesha could also recall her memories with Jacob if Jacob would be patient in guiding Alesha to regain her memories.

"So you know that you have amnesia, Alesha?"

Alesha nodded. "Yes, but I think I've regained my memory, and there's nothing I need to remember anymore."

"Not everyone!" Tukas Jacob's. "But you forgot about me, the proof is that you don't remember whether Rangga ever took care of you or not when you were little!"

Jacob did not want to think that Alesha had become a little more stupid because of her amnesia, but that was the reality that Jacob had now. Either too stupid or too innocent or maybe both because Alesha can very easily believe what Rangga tells, but not everything Rangga tells is the truth.

"You've really changed, Alesha. Even your mindset has changed. I thought you wouldn't believe what others say without proof, but now why are you like this, baby?" Jacob stared at his wife.

"Yes, indeed some of the stories that Rangga told you are true, and help you regain your memories, but not all of them, Lil Ale. He didn't tell me, about our marriage, even he said that Ujang's grandfather had died and you don't remember if you were ever taken care of by him?"

Why is this so confusing for Alesha, why did she just realize it? Is it true that Rangga has lied to him a lot?

"I-I don't know, sir, I didn't remember anything when I woke up in-hospital. But Rangga told everyone back about me, "Alesha replied in a raucous voice, and quivered.

"So the point is you know you're having amnesia, Alesha?"

Alesha nodded. "Yes, but I think I've been thinking back, and I don't mind that anymore either because Rangga is with me. I trusted him so much because he told me all kinds of things about me."

"Why didn't you tell me last night if you knew you had amnesia, Alesha?" Lirih Jacob's.

"I don't know, Sir. You're a stranger who suddenly came, and claimed to be my husband. I also didn't know I had amnesia to that extent. I thought my amnesia was just ordinary mild amnesia" Reply Alesha who still sounded trembling.

"So now you're trusting me if I'm your husband, but you're forgetting me because you don't remember me?" Jacob clasped his wife's hands tightly.

"Come, sir, but I still have a hard time accepting that. I thought there was nothing I should remember about my past because I thought I remembered a lot" Alesha replied.

"Alesha, believe me, I'm your husband. You know you're amnesiac, it means you also know if you forget me as your husband."

"Sir, don't confuse me, please..." Lirih Alesha's.

"Alesha, do you know that you're amnesiac? And you think your amnesia is light?" Jacob Parau.

Alesha nodded slowly.

"No, honey, you forgot everything, maybe some of your memories are back, but Rangga didn't tell me about me, and our marriage, maybe, he didn't tell me about you getting a scholarship and going to university when you were very young, he didn't tell me about you entering WOSA, either" Jacob now clutches his wife's body.

"I got a scholarship to the University when I was young?" Reload Alesha.

"You used to be a smart girl, Alesha. You get a scholarship, and you get into the world's secret academy, WOSA. You're smart, you have a lot of knowledge, and you're an active girl who always wants to know things. Rangga didn't tell you about it, did he?"

"Master, I don't remember anything anymore, you don't lie!"

"I'm not lying, baby. But it's okay, today we're going back to WOSA. I'm sure you'll regain your memories while you're there."

"But I still doubt, sir."

"Alesha, I am your husband, don't be afraid. Trust me, I can't hurt you" Jacob cupped his wife's face. "Trust me, Alesha, I'm just asking you to trust me."

"Trust me, Lil Ale" Jacob began to draw his face closer to his wife's face. "I'm your husband, don't bother me."

Alesha was silent, she was like being sedated by her husband's two black beads.

"You're going to believe me, right?" Lirih Jacob's.

Alesha nodded slowly.

"Do you believe I'm your husband?"

Alesha did not give any reply or response. Doubt still radiated clearly through his gaze.

Realizing that, Jacob also put on a small smile. "It's okay, I'll wait for you until you remember me. What matters now is that you want to put your trust in me, Lil Ale."

"Come here" Jacob brought Alesha's body back in his arms.

Alesha. Somehow he could not rebel or refuse the embrace of the man who felt was still unfamiliar to him. However, again a sense of comfort, and warmth slipped in soothe Alesha's heart when Jacob's large body grabbed her. Even now he felt very familiar with the embrace that Jacob gave him. Affection, and love, Alesha felt those two things flowing from the warmth of Jacob's embrace.

"I love you, My Lil Ale," Jacob kissed both sides of Alesha's cheeks. "I love you" Now Jacob gave his wife a loving look.

Alesha who got two short kisses from the man who still felt alien was now only able to bow her face shyly. The heat sensation spread throughout his body.

Why do I like that?...... Alesha muttered in her heart.
