Love, Treasure And Erlita

Chapter 22

The day had begun to night, and Nafan was really tired that day. He wanted to feel tired but not the same as Erlita. Since the afternoon, he continued to grumble because there was no ac and catch a cold because of the fan.

Even though it was night, he did not want to sleep.

"Fan, sori but I can't sleep tight in here."

Nafan immediately woke up and moved to the sofa in the living room.

"Fan, I can't sleep with a fan. Get in my wind!"

Nafan turned off the fan.

"Fan, I can't sleep because I'm sultry!"

Nafan opened his bedroom window.

"Fan, I can't sleep with a lot of mosquitoes."

"Fan, I can't with my mosquito repellent, my shortness of breath."

"Fan, I don't want to use mosquito repellent lotion on my broken skin."

Nafan almost lost all his patience. Because all the things he did to address Erlita's complaint, were wrong and unacceptable.

"OKAY. What do you want now?"

Erlita came out of the room towards the terrace and cried on the chair. Nafan felt guilty but he really did not know what else to do to help Erlita.

"Ta, sorry, yeah? I'm not angry with you. I just don't know how else to get you to sleep tonight."

Erlita was still crying.

"Okay, please help me tonight. Tell me how, what can I do so you can sleep. I promise that tomorrow morning I will take the motorbike at Faris' house and take you to find a hotel or inn that is comfortable for you."

Erlita was moved to hear Nafan's words but she really could not because she had never experienced them before. Erlita softened a little and agreed with Nafan's offer just now. He will try to sleep that night because he actually also felt very tired.

Erlita then leaned her head against Nafan's waist standing beside her. Nafan then sat on the handle of the chair while stroking Erlita's head. The night wind turned out to be very friendly, his breeze could put Erlita to sleep in an instant.

Nafan was uncomfortable with such a sleeping position. He was also worried that Erlita's back would cramp when she woke up. After confirming that Erlita had fallen asleep, Nafan carried her into the room.

He repels mosquitoes with a mosquito racket, closes the window, then turns on the fan that has been turned slightly upwards so as not to directly hit Erlita's body.

When Nafan was about to leave Erlita, his hand was actually held back by the girl. Erlita then slightly shifted her body so that Nafan could sleep beside her. Nafan arranged his sleeping position so as not to make Erlita crowded. Erlita put her head on Nafan's arm. And finally Nafan hugged her all night. Erlita actually got a new doll and blanket that night.

"Wake up, Ta?"

"Then are you neat? Did you start working today?"

"Ngga, it's only Monday."

"Trus?"

"I'm going to Faris' house to get a bike. You wait at home for a minute? I promise it won't be long."

"How will you go to Faris' house?"

"Numpang Pak Heri. It just so happened that this morning he was going to town."

Erlita had been waiting for almost an hour, but Nafan had not yet returned. She had taken a shower, had breakfast and dressed up, and now she was joining in. Don't know what to do. Suddenly, a lot of ideas popped into his head. He made a list of things he had to buy.

Shortly thereafter Nafan came with his motor matic. Erlita immediately prepared and locked the door and climbed into Nafan's motorbike. Nafan did not expect that Erlita would at least stay at home. To the point that he immediately left as soon as Nafan came. Last night he asked Nafan to accompany him to sleep. But today he easily left as if nothing had happened.

In the middle of the trip, Nafan just remembered that Erlita only brought her tote bag. That means he has to deliver Erlita's other stuff, later.

They had already arrived in the city, and Erlita asked Nafan to drive her to the photo studio. He printed out their wedding photos. One is big while the other is small. He also prints some photos taken during Nafan's birthday party and Jihan's wedding. He also bought some pictures.

After that, he asked to be escorted to an electronics store to buy ac and led tv.

"Ta, where are you going to install it?"

"In your house."

"Ta, the power is only nine hundred watts. It won't be enough for air conditioning, refrigerators and televisions."

"Udah calm down, let the technique take care of. Anyway we got it sorted out. All the goods will be shipped and installed until it can flame."

"But, Ta"

Erlita raised her hand like her grandmother, a sign of unwillingness to accept any opinion.

That afternoon they were busy installing photos, fixing the position of the room and rearranging the living room and kitchen. While Nafan took part in cleaning, sweeping, mopping the floor and cleaning the bathroom, glass and dust in furniture and chairs.

The house becomes even more comfortable because there is now a large wedding photo installed on the wall of the living room, and several small photos spread in every corner of the house. Nafan repainted the front frame of his house to make it look newer and fresher. He also put mosquito gauze on every window so that Erlita does not protest about mosquitoes anymore.

The next day, their AC and television arrived and were immediately installed. Because the electrical power is small, then they must turn off the iron, sanyo and taillights if you want to turn on the AC. Although it was a bit troublesome, but Erlita started to feel like she could stay in that house.

He had intended to buy a bigger bed, but Nafan forbade it. Because in addition to the room becomes increasingly narrow, the finances at that time did not allow to buy more furniture. Plus, Nafan felt more comfortable sleeping crammed with his wife.
