Love Sheila

The Failed First Anniversary

It's not like it's been a year since Steven and Sheila got married. Well, although initially their marriage was based on an agreement, but it turns out that God willed another by cultivating love between the two. Even now there are candidates for their baby in Sheila's stomach.

This morning after finishing the morning prayer Sheila did not immediately remove her face. After kissing Steven's right hand and Steven kissing his forehead, Sheila slammed into Steven's arms.

Poking her left cheek against Steven's chest while closing her eyes, permeating the affection of her husband. Thank God SWT who has presented love between them so that the marriage they live in now is full of love and affection.

"Why baby?" steven gently stroked Sheila's head.

"Well, what day is it?" Sheila asked back.

Thinking for a moment, Steven then smiled.

"Get the year of our wedding" Steven replied steadily.

Sheila released a hug and raised her head in surprise.

"Mas remember?"

"Hm. Where might Mas forget," replied Steven again pulling Sheila into his arms.

"One year ago, at the same hour as today, Mas was still pondering on the bed. Worried but nervous too. Because soon my life will change. Want to retreat, obviously Mas can no longer. But to go forward and forward, Mas is not sure what Mas is capable of, while Mas's heart still belongs to Nila at that time."

Sheila silently listened to Steven tell a story.

"When it was that time that convinced Mas to go on, he said 'face and walk, let everything flow like water, be assured there will be wisdom behind all this, ' he said, wish for the happiness of your Papa', as his advice was then."

"Mas had not realized that time when it turned out that Bang Dika had investigated all the information about you, so he was so eager to convince Mas to accept the matchmaking at that time. "

"What did Dika do all that Mas?" sheila did not believe it.

"Yes. And Mas also just found out that Bang Dika did all that one month after we got married. Bang Dika hid it all. Mas sempet was angry, but then Mas finally realized that Bang Dika ngelakuin all that for the good of Mas as well, because Bang Dika love the same Mas. Bang Dika has done Mas as his own sister, so Bang Dika wants the best for Mas, so he said."

"Mas must have been so angry back then?"

"Not really. A little disappointed, yes. But somehow, Mas himself also did not know, from the beginning of accepting our matchmaking Mas never felt regret at all. Especially when reciting kabul ijab, there is no doubt in the heart of Mas. And when you kissed Mas's hand, there was a foreign feeling that made Mas's heart beat at that moment. A feeling I've never felt before."

"Really?"

"Hm. As Mas once said, the heart already knows where the partner is even before Mas realized everything. And it turns out right, with you now Mas feel all the happiness that Mas has never felt before. Now Mas is so grateful for having you in his life. Moreover, soon there will be our prospective heroes who will complete our happiness," said Steven then gently stroked Sheila's stomach with a circular motion.

"Sheila is also grateful to have Mas Steven in Sheila's life. Thank you, Mas, for attending and completing Sheila's happiness," Sheila said with teary eyes.

"It is precisely Mas who thanks you dearly, thank you for making Mas feel all this happiness. And sorry for the bad start of our marriage. I'm sorry that Mas hurt you so much, baby" Steven cupped Sheila's cheeks with his hands.

"There is nothing to forgive. Everything is a process we have to go through to get our happiness together" Sheila replied.

"Mas is lucky to have you as Mas's life companion. Happy birthday, dear wedding. Hopefully in the future there will only be happiness for our little family. And hopefully we can continue to complement and strengthen each other. I love you Sheila. Mas loves you dear," said Steven then kissing Sheila's forehead inside.

Sheila closed her eyes, feeling so much love and affection from Steven, her husband.

"Sheila also loves Mas Steven so much" Sheila replies after Steven's kiss is over.

The two locked their eyes on each other. Slowly Steven lowered his head and scooped Sheila's tiny lips. M e l u m a t gently shed all forms of affection for each other. Both are grateful to Allah SWT who has united them in a holy marriage bond.

...

'Dear be prepared, later tonight Mas will take you out to dinner, celebrate our first wedding anniversary. I've sent you a dress, you're wearing it for our show tonight. Love you's. Your Hubby's.'

Sheila smiled reading the message that Steven had just sent.

"Why honey, how are you smiling?" asked Amelia who was sitting next to Sheila.

Sheila and Amelia are currently in the living room, watching TV and spending time together.

"Message from Steven, huh?" guess Amelia.

"Yes Ma," Sheila replied as she nodded slowly.

"Mas Steven took a dinner out of Ma, to celebrate our first wedding anniversary" Sheila smiled.

"Oh my God, Mama forgot. Congratulations, dear. Happy anniversary," said Amelia then hugged Sheila full of affection.

"Thank you Ma."

"Happy is always for both of you. Mama pray that your marriage will last until the grandparents later and blessed with children who are sholeh and sholehah," said Amelia sincerely after breaking her embrace.

"Aamiin, once again thank you very much Ma," Sheila smiled happily at the do'a from her mother-in-law who now loved her so much.

The courier has come and delivered Steven's order dress to Sheila. After the Maghrib Sheila prayer began to prepare. Steven just sent a message that he still has an important meeting.

'I'm sorry that there are still important meetings with clients that I can't leave. But I sent the office driver to pick you up. Finish meeting Mas directly followed you there huh. Sorry, my dear. Love you's. Your Hubby's.'

Sheila smiled again at the message from her husband. Finished preparing, there was a knock from Sheila's room door. Sheila went to open the door and it turned out that Siti was knocking on the door.

"Yes Ma'am?"

"Sorry Non, in front there is a driver who wants to pick up Non, he said told Den Steven," said Mbak Siti told politely.

"Oh, yes, Ma'am. I'll be down in a minute."

"Neither, excuse me."

After getting approval from Sheila Mbak Siti then left. Sheila went inside the room again and picked up her clucth then rushed to go downstairs.

"Ma, Sheila left first yes," Sheila told Amelia.

"Dear, be careful" said Amelia.

"Yes Ma" Sheila replies and kisses Amelia's hand. "Assalamu'alaikum Ma."

"Wa'alaikumsalam dear."

Sheila got out of the house and found a driver waiting for her next to a parked car.

"Good night Miss, let's go, please" said the driver, letting Sheila enter after opening the rear door.

Sheila felt something was off. All the employees in Steven's office called him 'Mom', never once did anyone call him 'Miss'.

"I'm sorry, did you tell my husband to pick me up?" sheila asked to make sure.

"Miss Betul. Mr. Steven told me to pick up Miss and deliver Miss to the restaurant first. So, let's go Miss please come in. Don't let Mr. Steven wait too long" the driver said.

Sheila was actually feeling a little doubtful. But Sheila called Steven couldn't. Maybe the meeting isn't over. With a heavy heart Sheila finally got into the car.

Not long after the departure of the car that brought Sheila. The main doorbell rings. Siti half ran to open the door.

"Yes, find who?" ask Mba Siti.

"I'm sorry I was sent by Mr. Steven to pick up Ms. Sheila" replied the middle-aged man in front of Ms. Siti.

"Loh, but there was someone who invited Non Sheila, he said Den Steven's submission," said Mbak Siti confused.

"What's Siti doing?" asked Amelia to walk over.

"This is Madam, this man said he wanted to pick up Non Sheila told Den Steven. But Non Sheila has been invited by Den Steven's letter earlier," said Mbak Siti explained.

Amelia was confused.

"You were right to tell Steven to pick up Sheila?" ask Amelia to convince.

"True Ma'am. Mr. Steven gave me orders to pick up Ms. Sheila and drive her to the restaurant first" the driver replied.

"But Sheila was already picked up, Steven said. What don't-don't... Oh my gosh, Siti quickly grabbed my HP," Amelia's orders began to look panicked. Pray in your heart that what you think does not come true.
