LOVE IN THE SHADOW

CHAPTRE 23

...***...

At 23.01.

Ravenska had just arrived at her home, and she saw Raya who welcomed her home with a very friendly smile.

"Happy birthday, baby. May a long healthy life always and happily." With a very happy smile he said that phrase. Especially at that moment in her hand was a very beautiful cake.

But there was no response at all from Ravenska, because at that time he felt a very extraordinary fatigue after traveling far enough.

"That you, do not need to provide excessive gifts. I'm so tired, I want to get some rest." For some reason at that time he could not accept what Raya had done to him. He passed through the Kingdom that seemed silent after listening to what he said earlier. "For me, whatever you do will not touch my heart. Only salsa can bring me happiness." In his heart there was only one woman named Salsa.

"Mass?." Raya tried to restrain herself from doing anything strange. "I have prepared all this for you. But why are you so cold to me?." His mood at that moment was really very raging. "I just want to ask you one request." He said while holding back the anger that was in his heart. "Mas, I'm asking you something." Repeatedly again.

It was a pity because at that time Ravenska did not respond to what he said?.

"Do you listen to what I say?. I'm asking you something."

Ravenska approached Raya, the look on her face looks very emotional?. Is there something wrong with that word?.

"I have no obligation whatsoever to fulfill what you ask. Because I'm not your place to ask." Such was the reply from Ravenska. "So you don't ask me anything. I will never fulfill what you ask of me. Don't ask me too much just because you're my wife." After saying so he immediately left the place. He just walked into his room without caring about how the feeling of greatness that was destroyed after listening to his words.

Her tears fell just like that, tears of sadness that had described her mood at that moment. With a very heavy step he went back to the kitchen to save the cake he had prepared. After that he went to his room to see Ravenska lying on the bed.

His mood at that moment was really very chaotic, yet he tried to remain steadfast. Although occasionally heard the sound of a hiccup of crying that he held at that time. "Mass?." In his heart he tried to strengthen himself. At that time he tried to touch Ravenska's back. But at that very moment she felt a very great fear, if her husband would hate her even more if he did that.

"This day I've been trying to do what I can to make you happy. But what I did was in vain. Do you love me or not?." In her heart wanted to ask like that, let alone in her wounded mood state after listening to what her own husband had said.

"Even with those tears, I will never be touched. I'll never like someone who forces me to marry someone I don't love." In Ravenska's heart you try to put all that aside. "You may have a myriad?. Or million?. Or thousand?. Or even in this world do you love me?. But my heart will never choose you to be the one I love." In his heart he had promised to suppress those feelings towards Raya. "You're the one I hate so much, I never thought you were the one I loved. So this is what you got because you forced me to marry you. In fact I really don't like you." In his heart at that moment felt what was called ordinary love and friends.

Just ordinary friends?. So all this time he had considered his relationship with the Kingdom like that?. Is it just a normal friend relationship?. Because from what he heard, not only his mother forced him to marry, but Raya also begged her mother to unite them in domestic relations. At that time, he was in a relationship with Salsa, the woman he loved.

"Allah is merciful, merciful, only to you I beg. Strengthen your heart to face this temptation. Open the door of his heart to look at the servant. I give everything to you, O God." At that time he slowly closed his eyes because he was tired all day without rest prepare everything to please Ravenska. But who would have guessed if that was what she got when her husband came back.

Meanwhile Salsa?.

Just then he stared at a very beautiful ring, it was a proposal ring. Of course he knows what that means.

"Hopefully she actually proposed to me after I gave birth to her child." At least that was what was on his mind when he received the application ring from Ravenska. Her heart at that time was really very flowery, she felt how to be a perfect woman when there was a man who said seriously he wanted to marry her. "I don't think I'd believe him if he really wanted to keep his word." He needs his stomach that begins to grow full of tenderness. "You take it easy, my son. Surely when you are born into this world you will have a very kind father. I can't wait to see you born, raised by a very responsible father." With a smile full of gentleness he said so. "Hurry up to be born in this world, that your mother may be with your father." After saying that she even grinned alone while remembering the funny things she would do with her husband later. "Suami?. I was no longer able to hold back when we became a very happy married couple, and accompanied by a very handsome boy. My life really felt perfect with the presence of the two beside me at that moment." How happy his life will be when he imagines how that reality will be.

Is it true that he will get the great happiness he craves with the people he loves?. Check it out correctly and pay close attention to how this story will happen.

After performing the dawn prayer, Raya again repeated her sleep. It felt like he was completely unable to move anymore, his body feeling hot. And there's a chance he's got a fever back.

"Mas. I'm sorry, because this morning I couldn't prepare breakfast for you." In a very scary voice she said that to her husband.

Again and again there was no meaningful response from Ravenska. It was as if his mood at that time had really been closed to the woman named Maharani Rayasuara. After he was tidy and prepared what would he bring to the office?. Ravenska just walked out without saying a word.

"Build the heart of the servant of Allah. Even though he doesn't love slaves. Someday I hope she will fall in love with me." In his heart he wished so much.

Meanwhile, Ravenska was heading to the kitchen. Maybe that morning could fill his stomach with bread, but at that time he was very surprised to see there were some boxes that were wrapped very neatly. Not only that made him surprised at that moment, all his favorite food was served by Raya at the dinner table?. So festive dishes on the dining table, also some gift wrappers are very funny according to him?. Would his heart at that moment really never be touched by what the Kingdom had done?.

"No!. I can't be touched at all by what he's doing. Because I'll never turn away from the woman I love." That was his mood at the time. With determination and confidence he strengthened himself not to think of branching off to other women other than Salsa.

"Sorry, my heart will never be shared with anyone. My heart has I poured it all over the woman named salsa." At that time he imagined how his married life with a woman named Salsa.

Especially after the birth of Salsa later he will keep the promise he has said to the woman. "In the meantime, we will be lawful husband and wife. If need be later I will try to explain to mama slowly. That there's a woman I love so much, and now I'm pregnant with my son. At least two months later Salsa will give birth. I can't wait anymore." In his heart at that moment thought of what the most beautiful gift he would give to Salsa after giving birth to a son for her.

What a man who is very loyal to one woman, but does he not have any feelings for the woman who has become his wife?. Does he not realize that he has hurt one woman just for the sake of making another woman happy?. How is the story of the end of this story?. Check out how the story will happen.

Meanwhile the old man Raya.

Somehow at that time the Goddess felt bad feelings that befell her son. At that time he contacted his son to see if he was okay. The Kingdom that listened to the voice of the call immediately took her HP.

"Assalamu'alaikum's mother?."

"Wa'alaikumussalam's chat. Loh?. Is your voice so hoarse?. Did something happen to you?." As a mother, she was very worried about what had happened to her child.

"Raya's fine mom. Just not feeling well." His voice sounded obviously very hoarse.

"Are you having a fever?. Is your husband there?. Didn't he take care of you?."

Raya just smiled a little listening to the question posed by her mother. It seemed like his mother was so worried about him that she gave him many such questions.

"Raya is better, ma'am. Ravenska is very good. Of course mas ravenska takes good care of mom."

"Alhamdulillah if that is my son. I'm just worried about you, so I'm calling you."

"Mother don't worry about the highways. It's okay here mom. Maybe next week the fairies will go home to see the condition of the mother is equally papa."

"Loh?. Do you have no activities?. Have you asked your husband for permission if you want to go home?."

"Mas Ravenska will definitely allow raya to go home to mom. It's impossible to ban the highway from going home to the old man's own house."

"Then why don't you go home with your husband?. It's been a long time since I've seen you in this house."

"If ravenska mas lately busy with her work mother. So it's kind of hard to get her out."

"Oh?. Toh. Is he busy at work too?."

"As usual mother, mas ravenska is a lot of batik orders, because that's why mas raska sometimes stay at the office because there are many activities that must be completed."

"Yes already. You will come home alone. If you still have a fever, I can take care of you in this house."

"Thank you so much mom. Then you want to continue cleaning this house."

"Don't be too exhausted if you still have a fever. It can be bad if you push yourself too much."

"Good mother."

"Then this call mom closes?. Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh."

"Wa'alaikumussalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh."

Raya actually wanted to bring out all the problems she had in mind at that moment to her mother. But somehow she felt indecisive if she complained to her mother about her husband's behavior all along.

"Allah is merciful, merciful. I leave everything to you Rob. Strengthen the heart and faith of the servant to face all this. lest the heart of the servant shake just like that. Give the servant the strength to keep going even if one day he really says he does not love the servant." In his heart at that moment was really very uneasy with what he had experienced. But at that moment he really could not refuse whatever his condition was. For him Ravenska is everything, so he no longer hesitates to do anything for his much loved husband despite the rejection that makes his heart ache so incredibly. What is his heart really made of?. So that the willing feel how hurt feelings love someone in the shadow.
