Love Because of Obligation

Fulfill the obligation 3

These past few days, Aira had grown more and more mature in speaking and acting. Aira prefers to be quiet, doing schoolwork and lectures quietly, she does not want to confide in her usual.

Lack in the family is one disgrace that must be kept secret.

The wise words that made Aira had to close her mouth to not tell the incident that night that made her husband feel inferior in front of the Aira family.

Anwar began to keep his distance from his father and everyone in the house, because he felt he was just a poor boy who was lucky to be the husband of a rich man's son.

As a wife who is obligated to obey and be loyal to the husband, Aira tries to convince Anwar that she will support Anwar and will be by his side.

this is what strengthens Anwar to keep fighting for a new relationship for a lifetime.

_._._._

Dinner this time, it was different for Aira. Her husband did not want to eat together. Anwar chose to speed up his dinner into an afternoon meal, and when passing by Aira's parents was just a greeting like a new person.

Only Aira was unkind to both of them. Aira did not know who to side with, because between her father and husband is a person who is very obedient.

In such a situation the mother silently said "remain on your husband's side, if you want to keep your household, son!"

"But what about mom and dad?" Aira asked for mother's opinion.

"Your obligation to your husband is that you're now only emotional for a moment!" mother's advice while cleaning the cutlery "all parents love their children"

"What do you think about Mas Anwar asking Aira to learn shopping for her own needs, Mom..." Aira expressed Anwar's wish that Aira could be more independent.

"It's okay, tomorrow's week Aira can shop by herself.." Mom wiped her wet hands "and cooked Anwar's own favorite dishes!"

"Thank you, Mom, you've always been understanding to me..." Aira kissing mom cheek.

After finishing clean Aira was about to return to the room to bring coffee for her husband, but in the living room the father intercepted Aira and asked Aira to take her husband out for a while.

it wasn't long before Aira came back to see Dad.

"Is your husband tomorrow so go buy his merchandise?" father asked Aira whose facial expression was scared.

"The plan is yes dad," Aira did not want to talk much.

"But, but dad..." Aira replied doubtfully.

"Tell him, if he refuses this means he doesn't care about the father's son!" father's tone of voice is rather high. "do not act with great heart or discouraged"

"Alright, father" Aira took the money by bowing her face that was unable to look at her father.

"Yes, before the coffee is cold you deliver first!" father's orders in a flat voice.

Aira went into the room carrying a nearly cold coffee while father was still sitting with mother talking about Anwar's changing attitude.

In the room Aira met Anwar who was sitting on the sofa. Aira placed the glass filled with coffee on the small table beside the sofa.

"What is that, Ai?" Anwar sees something falling from behind the hijab of Aira.

"this is mas, father asked mas to accept his..." Aira sat beside Anwar "as a child we must not refuse the gift of parents, mas"

"Even if it lowers my pride, I've said Ai, I married you because God is not because of treasure" Anwar stretched out his hands on the back of the sofa.

"if I wanted to be rich, I've been, my shopkeeper in town wanted to marry me to her daughter, but I didn't want to..."Anwar held his nape with his left palm. "i want to live from my labors"

"Now the most important thing is to accept this money, lest we burden the father and mother, else the father does not say anything" Aira persuaded Anwar by leaning on the chest of Anwar's field.

"even my mother taught me to still support you mas, you should not be discouraged, if you want to succeed" Anwar could not refuse Aira who at length gave her understanding.

"By you Ai, I'll take it, but you save it first." Anwar opens Aira's headscarf because for her Aira is prettier with her shoulder-length hair.

"Don't you, what's your dad like?" ask the plain Aira.

"You just say, it's accepted. Maybe one day we'll need to go to your college" Anwar feels benefited by Aira's attitude closer to him.

"Oh yeah, wake me up at half-five yeah, Ai. don't be late" Anwar who was tired of wanting to sleep on Aira's lap immediately went to bed and did not want to miss the opportunity to ask Aira for her rights.

As a wife who is obligated to the husband, Aira can not refuse but she also does not enjoy the game of her husband, but Anwar even more aggressive and eager to do it. let alone tomorrow all day, especially tomorrow, from dawn until 11pm Anwar will be going to the city, he will definitely miss Aira a lot.
