Kanya's Story

Jealous

Now Kanya and Zaen are on the doorstep of the mall. Kanya walked over while hooking her hand on Zaen's arm. They went around but not a single item they bought, or they were picky.

"So what are you going to buy? From earlier muters aja", said Zaen.

"Patience", replied Kanya casually.

"What do you want to buy?" asked Zaen.

"Goru, confused. Let's go first".

Zaen simply obeyed his wife's wishes. They walked around the huge mall for two hours. He felt his lower stomach hurt. He suddenly stopped walking while holding his aching lower abdomen, Zaen noticed it was instantly worried.

"You why? Sit down first", Zaen leads Kanya and happens to be near them walking there is a bench for the public.

"Sick" Kanya said as she landed her butt on the bench.

"What pain? Which one?", asked Zaen worriedly. Kanya answered him by leading Zaen's hand to his stomach.

"That's painful? Bentar, I buy you a drink, yes", said Zaen. Then he bought a drink and gave it to Kanya. He sipped it until it ran out.

"Again", Kanya's pinta.

Zaen ran to buy another drink, he had two bottles and gave them to Kanya. He gulped it down quickly.

"Slow down" said Zaen.

Kanya did not rub it but continued to gulp it on the third bottle. Until exhausted.

Bought two bottles, instead of for himself and his wife, but both bottles were gone.

"Udah", said Kanya while talking.

"Still sick?", asked Zaen.

"Udah. Want watermelon", Kanya pinta.

"I'm cariin, yeah. You wait here, or in the car, don't come. It will hurt again", Zaen scolded.

"Ga! Want to come along", whine Kanya.

After a long debate, Zaen finally relented because Kanya insisted on joining.

Then they walked around the mall again and luckily from where they walked back, there was a fresh fruit shop.

Kanya who saw spontaneously pointed at him, and they went there. Zaen took a troller for shopping and Kanya did not hesitate to directly enter the fruit that tantalizes his taste. Including the watermelon he was looking for.

While Kanya was still sifting through the fruit, there was a woman who ran towards them and directly hugged Zaen's arm spoiled.

Zaen who got such a sudden treatment instantly removed his arm from the woman's embrace. He was shocked when he saw the woman.

How not to be surprised, the woman is Angel, her enemy during High School.

"Eh, Kanya. Why are you here?", asked Angel while rolling her eyes with a trivial smile.

"It's none of your business", replied Kanya.

"Zaen, I miss. What are you doing with this village girl?", Angel asked Zaen.

"See your speech, yes. She's my wife", Zaen replied firmly.

Zaen did not answer Angel's question. He chooses to leave Angel fixated and holds Kanya's fingers as she passes away.

"What do you want to buy?", asked Zaen.

"Go home" answered Kanya.

"Jude, I'll pay for this first, yeah".

She nodded her head without looking at her husband.

Then they left the mall. Throughout the journey Kanya seemed silent. Stare straight at the road. Occasionally Zaen asked, but not infrequently his question was kept quiet by his wife.

And arrive at his house. When Kanya was about to get out of the car first, her hand was held by Zaen. He turned his eyes to the man in front of him.

"Are you jealous?", asked Zaen by staring fixedly at Kanya's eyes.

"Ga". Then Kanya releases her wrist held by Zaen and she leaves Zaen still silent in the car.

"She was jealous", Zaen muttered as she curled the corners of her lips.

***

It was late at night, but Kanya still silenced Zaen and ignored him. Zaen repeatedly asked him to speak, but his answer was always short.

And in time for bed, Zaen was leaning half of his body on the board. Waiting wife. When Kanya had entered the room, she did not look at her husband who was smiling warmly at her.

Kanya's wearing her night cream in that room. When he finished, he was about to step his foot out of the room. However, his hand was again held by Zaen.

"Where are you going?", asked Zaen.

"I want to sleep in the guest room" answered Kanya.

"Why?", asked Zaen again.

But Kanya ignored her husband's question again. She threw her husband's hand and left the room. Go into the guest room. He immediately went to sleep in that room.

The atmosphere at that time was heavy rain which was complemented by a thunderous lightning strike. Real cold.

"I need a hug". "No-no!", Kanya's inner self strongly rejected the desires of her heart.

"Why am I this angry with Zaen? It feels weird", muttered Kanya.

Darr!!

The sound of lightning striking along with the lights out all over the room made Kanya scream in fear. He squeezes the springbed he wears tightly. He was crying, afraid of the dark.

And suddenly there was a figure who was hugging him from behind. Kanya was certainly surprised, she tightened her cries while calling out Zaen's name.

"Suuttt, it's me. Don't cry, ah", Zaen's voice answered.

Kanya stopped her crying and instantly fell silent.

Finally he obeyed what his heart said. She turned her body and hugged her husband tightly.

When Zaen heard the sound of lightning accompanied by the lights out, he immediately went to the guest room where his wife was staying. And his wife was calling his name. Zaen hugged her from behind to calm her down.

In that embrace, the two fell asleep quietly even though the atmosphere out there was still not calm.
