Love for My Husband

43. UNCHANGED.

Getting rid of the sadness she felt, the woman chose to follow her husband into the room, where she did not see Revan but the splashing sound of water made her sure that her husband was cleaning himself.

the woman sat on the bed waiting for Revan, until almost an hour Revan just came out of the place with a towel that he rubbed in his hair.

Nadhifa approached to help Revan as usual but Revan avoided making Nadhifa even more sad.

the woman laid her body on the bed right next to Revan who was behind her, tears dripping down her smooth cheeks but she quickly wiped them off.

' I can't be whiny, mas Revan must be just tired ' Nadhifa said in his heart.

putting away the bad thoughts that came to his mind, Nadhifa closed his eyes which were already very sleepy.

...

morning usually Revan will use to indulge with his wife, but not for today since last night Revan did not greet with Nadhifa.

even the work clothes that Nadhifa prepared were not touched at all, Revan preferred her own work clothes.

Nadhifa exited the room when she saw Revan in his own work clothes, usually Nadhifa who would tidy up his tie and suit, as much as possible Nadhifa held back tears that were ready to spill at any time.

in the kitchen Nadhifa was cheerful as usual, he could not hesitate to joke with Ms. Rahma and bik Minah.

after arranging food on the dining table, Nadhifa asked Bu Rahma to call her twin sister-in-law who was still in the room.

at the dining table there is Revan who already looks neat, not to forget he also brought his briefcase.

Nadhifa approached Revan and began to prepare Revan's breakfast as usual, no refusal to make Nadhifa a little happy.

they eat in silence, until finally Revan ends his breakfast, he kisses the back of Bu Rahma's hand and rushes to work leaving Nadhifa who looks at him with a sad look.

after mastering his feelings, Nadhifa took out a dirty plate for him to put in the sink and started washing it.

" your collision isn't going to take Revan forward?" said Ms. Rahma as she approached Nadhifa who was busy washing dishes.

" was Revan said there was an important meeting this morning ma" said Nadhifa calmly.

Ms. Rahma just nodded at her daughter-in-law's answer, she again helped Minah tidy up the dining table.

after his work Nadhifa said to go to his room to perform Dhuha prayers as usual.

after Nadhifa's prayer raised both hands to pray, there were no tears flowing as Nadhifa recalled Revan who had ignored him since last night.

just this time Revan did something that hurt his heart, never ignoring him like this.

...

after calming down, Nadhifa walked into the kitchen to prepare lunch for her husband, asking Minah to be quiet.

he wanted to make a special meal for Revan, with the spirit of Nadhifa cut the chicken that Nadhifa would turn into a chicken rica-rica until he was unconscious when the knife accidentally scratched his index finger.

bik Minah who accidentally saw that helped Nadhifa clean the blood that was relentlessly dripping from her injured finger.

" non Dhifa, how come it gets hurt like this?" said Bik Minah who had returned with the medicine box in her hand, the middle-aged woman immediately cleaned the wound and bandaged it.

" let the aunt continue cooking?" said bik Minah.

" this is just an ordinary bik wound, Dhifa can still continue cooking" said Nadhifa who had returned struggling with chicken meat.

bik Minah approached Nadhifa, intending to take over Nadhifa's work.

" let the aunt who cut it non" he said.

" no need to make, Dhifa wants to make a special lunch for mas Revan" said Nadhifa and returned to work.

" all right" Minah continued with another unresolved work.

...

Nadhifa walks into Revan's office excitedly, impatiently giving Revan lunch, but her footsteps are stopped when the receptionist says Revan doesn't want to be disturbed.

with a heavy heart Nadhifa left Revan's office, she was a little disappointed because usually her husband was never like that.

" yes sir, Dhifa forgot that Revan mas had a meeting outside the office" replied Nadhifa showing a fake smile.

Mr. Ratno nodded and brought Nadhifa back home safely, not forgetting Nadhifa gave the bushel he brought to Mr. Ratno.

" how did you get back to Dhifa?" said Ms. Rahma who saw Nadhifa had come home.

" yes ma, mas Revan was there a meeting outside, Dhifa forgot not to ask first" replied Nadhifa.

...

after lunch, Nadhifa looked at Ms. Rahma who was ready to leave.

" what if you go with your mom? mama has made a pact with mama's friend" said Ms Rahma.

" it just so happens that mama's friend needs to go to the orphanage, you can also stay there" he added.

" mas Revan how's ma?" nadhifa's words made Ms. Rahma scrunch her forehead clueless.

" Revan said to mom, there's a job out of town for three days, didn't you tell me ?" said Ms. Rahma.

" Dhifa has not had time to see ma's phone, Dhifa's phone is still in the room" said Nadhifa.

" all right, let's get ready, mama wait outside yeah"

Nadhifa nodded as she entered the room to see her phone, but she found no message from Revan.

Me

Mas, I got permission to stay at the parlour during Revan's work.

nadhifa waited long enough for Revan's answer, but his message was only Revan read without any answer.

harboring his disappointment, Nadhifa rushed to meet Bu Rahma who was waiting for him.

they pick up Bu Rahma's friend first then continue the journey to the orphanage.

Ms. Rahma and her friend had gone home, Now Nadhifa was in the room she missed so much.

for many years he spent here accompanied by the behavior of various orphanage children, and it was greatly missed by Nadhifa.

after making sure the children of the home were asleep, Nadhifa entered the room and saw Ms Rahma who was still waiting for him.

" mother hasn't slept?"

" mother wait for you" said Mother Lastri.

Nadhifa laid her body beside Mother Lastri, she could not help but hug the body of the middle-aged woman who had taken care of her.

" what's up, baby?" said mother Lastri.

" it's okay mother, Dhifa kangen sama mother" said spoiled Nadhifa.

" did they treat you well?" said mother Lastri.

Nadhifa nodded, Revan and his family's treatment was so kind to him.

a single tear flowed from the corner of Nadhifa's eyes that were closed as she recalled Revan ignoring her, and Revan said nothing about his departure out of town.

mother Lastri stroked Nadhifa's hair fondly, she knew that if Nadhifa was in trouble, as the person who had taken care of Nadhifa from childhood she understood very well that something was troubling Nadhifa's mind.

moreover, the look on Nadhifa's face was not as bright as usual, indeed Nadhifa was cheerful as usual, but the mother of Lastri could see that there was something Nadhifa was hiding.

" if you want a story, you are ready to listen to it" said Mother Lastri.

Nadhifa shook her head, but the tears flowing down her cheeks increasingly made the woman sob.

mother Lastri simply stroked Nadhifa's hair to calm the woman who was currently shedding tears in her arms.
