"We're going home now" said Dirga standing right in front of the reception desk.
Monaliza glanced at the watch in her hand at a glance, she then got up and said goodbye to her best friend Rullina. "I'm first Ru" he said.
"alright. I hope you don't forget to come here again tomorrow. Maybe if I were you, I would forget to come to the office because I have a beautiful husband like Dirga's sir," whispered Rullina with a smile of admiration steal a look at Dirga who looked the other way.
Hearing Rullina's words, Monaliza again smiled, she glanced at Dirga who was still waiting for her. His best friend did not know why he did not go to the office after marriage.
"I go home first, yes" Monaliza said goodbye as she waved her hand at Rullina who was also about to prepare to go home.
Monaliza walked beside Dirga to the car. The man said nothing to her, let alone smiled. Could it be that Dirga was still upset with him after the incident this morning he forced to come to work?
With the tail of her eyes, Monaliza occasionally glanced at her husband who was walking upright, with a flat face like a walking statue of life.
Although the two of them could not be as romantic as other couples, at least Dirga was never as indifferent as today. Usually, when he is at home, Dirga will call or send a message, even if just say good lunch. But today, it did not do, as if Dirga did not care for him who was hungry waiting for him to have lunch together.
"Sir Dirga these balloons you ordered this morning," an office boy approached Dirga and Monaliza who had almost reached the car, then thrust six balloons of different colors into each other.
"Thank you" Dirga immediately took three hundred thousand bills out of his wallet and gave them to the office boy and took over the sixth string of balloons.
"Sorry sir, the price is not so much sir," the office boy seemed hesitant to accept the paper money Dirga gave him.
"Take it more," said Dirga by commenting on a little smile that he rarely shows let alone in front of his employees.
"But sir-" the office boy still looks shy.
"Once you go, just take it. There is no need to protest as much as a pregnant woman," said Dirga a little glance at Monaliza who immediately dells her eyes when her husband's words seem to insinuate her.
"Then, thank you very much sir," although feeling shy, the office boy finally accepted it and immediately said goodbye and resigned from there.
Monaliza was stunned to look at Dirga who entered first and carried the balloons into the car, without opening the door for her as usual.
"When are you standing there?" ask Dirga from behind the wheel.
With a lethargic face, Monaliza opened the car door for herself, then sat down slowly beside the steering wheel and put on her seatbelt.
All the way home, there was silence between them. Monaliza who has been memorized correctly with the cool style of the husband dissolves in the divided silence.
"Down, we have arrived" said Dirga flat without looking at Monaliza next to him.
Monaliza was stunned again, Dirga just remembered her balloons and forgot about herself. With a careless step, he left the car and followed Dirga who entered the big house first.
His heart suddenly felt hollow, like something was missing, when Dirga did not give him his usual attention.
Upon arrival in the room, Monaliza did not find her husband there, making her more lethargic and uninspired. He entered the bathroom and immersed himself in the bathtub for so long.
The coldness of the water required him to finish his bath immediately. Monaliza got up and rinsed her body and hair under a warm shower.
With his kimono towel he came out, and saw Dirga looking at him. "You done yet?"
"We're going to have dinner together in the room, Aunt Nia has brought him here. Get dressed, I'll take a shower soon" said Dirga lowly. He immediately entered the bathroom leaving Monaliza.
Monaliza hurriedly headed to the wardrobe and picked out the clothes for herself and immediately put them on before Dirga finished her bath.
After she finished getting dressed, Monaliza immediately chose the clothes for her husband to wear later and placed them on the edge of the bed.
Not long ago, Dirga came out of the bathroom with her wet hair and only wore a towel just limited to her waist.
Monaliza immediately turned her body, when she saw the athletic body of her husband, she went to the balcony where Dirga had prepared dinner for them both, and the balloons were also there, monaliza's mood is improving. He began to read one by one Dirga's handwriting on the surface of the balloon.
"I'm sorry I didn't accompany you to lunch today," that was the first sentence Monaliza read on the purple balloon, making Monaliza smile on her face.
"I'm sorry I locked you in this house," that's the next sentence in red.
"I'm sorry I fired you as I please" said the green-ballooned sentence.
"I'm sorry for being too possessive of you" the yellow ballooned sentence reads.
"I'm sorry dear Daddy, it made your Mommy sad, upset, and angry" Monaliza chuckled at the writing, on the blue-tinted balloon.
"Love me, for I have given you my heart to Monaliza, my wife." Reading the last sentence of the sixth balloon pink, making Monaliza's heart warm immediately, she smiled to herself while tightly hugging the balloon.
DORR!!
Monaliza was shocked herself, when the pink balloon accidentally exploded in her arms, her heart almost dislodged.
"You okay?" Dirga hurriedly approached Monaliza who was still in her shocked mode, he checked her whole body, making sure her wife was still in safe condition.
"I'm fine, just kind of surprised. The broken balloon couldn't have hurt me" Monaliza said with a warmed-up heart to see Dirga's attention.
"I'm sorry, I broke the balloon" he continued, feeling guilty.
Dirga stared at Monaliza's face, developing a faint smile that stunned Monaliza, "No problem. If you want, I can replace it again." added Dirga still smiling thinly.
"N-not necessary. How about we eat now, I'm so hungry" said Monaliza again nervously got Dirga's look at her.
"Alright, I'll bribe you. Think of this as my apology to you, who've been ignoring you all day," Dirga picked up the plate and began to put in the dinner menu on the table.
"Don't, I can do it myself. Mr. Dirga must be hungry too. Hasn't Dirga's apology been represented by the balloons?" reject Monaliza, her heart pounding increasingly so when Dirga still want to bribe her.
"Come, open your mouth" Dirga thrust out a spoonful of Monaliza's lips. Eventually the woman was forced to open her mouth, take a bribe and began to chew it slowly.
"So you've read it all? Does that mean you've forgiven your husband completely?" Dirga continued again after giving his first bribe to Monaliza.
Monaliza was stunned again, staring at the smile that re-expanded on her husband's face. Where did the stiff face of her husband go that she had seen all this time? he murmured in the heart.
