Along the way on the motorbike, Liza hugged her husband's waist so tightly and leaned her head on Fariz's sturdy back. After the prayer, the two planned to go to the house of Sharifah and Muhsin, Liza's parents. The trip to Liza's parents' house takes 15 minutes.
She seemed to be enjoying her time with her husband.
"Want to buy ice cream?" tawar Fariz pointed to the ice cream seller who went to the side of the road.
Liza directly stared at the direction her husband pointed at. "Can. But then we'll stop by the grocery store too, okay?"
"Yes, honey..."
Fariz stopped the motorcycle owned by Hasan abah not far from the ice cream seller was selling. Liza immediately got off the motorcycle seat. As if impatient to taste ice cream sold in various flavors. Liza immediately stepped closer to the seller.
Fariz is parking his bike.
There were several small children and adults waiting in line to buy ice cream, including Liza.
"Eh..."
Liza gasped in shock when someone pulled her wrist until it hit her chest firmly.
"habits. Just released was gone," Fariz grumbled softly.
Liza just smiled shyly.
"You wait on the bike, let Mas buy him. I don't like you jostling" Fariz stared at some of the men waiting to buy ice cream.
Liza obediently obeyed what her husband had ordered. He returned to the motorbike, standing on the side of the two-wheeled vehicle. His eyes could not see Fariz, who was buying him ice cream.
"It's..." Fariz handed the ice cream he had just bought to Liza who immediately greeted her with sparkling eyes.
The woman slightly put aside the veil she was wearing and licked the chocolate-flavored ice cream with pleasure. While Fariz stood in front of Liza, until the tiny body was covered with a large body. Even so, Liza is increasingly free to eat her ice cream.
Really, being married to Fariz made Liza feel free wherever she went without having to fear getting any interference from other men or being a plumbing material. Her husband was always by her side.
"Slowly eating ice cream," Fariz scolded at Liza who appeared to be hasty in finishing the ice in the mouthpiece.
"It will melt if it's slow to spend" said Liza staring at Fariz at a glance."Mom, I want to try." Liza brought the cold thing closer to her husband's lips.
"No. You just spend it."
Liza mangosteen and go back to devouring the ice cream that began to melt it.
"We're just staying at Mas's parents' house?"
Liza's body instantly pegged for a moment. He looked at Fariz who was waiting for his answer.
"I'm up to Mas," replied Liza. However, the woman's different expressions were apparent and Fariz realized that.
"If you mind, we'll just stay at your parents' house. You don't want to make you uncomfortable. So, just say something that sticks in your heart, don't hide it" Fariz said. Because he knew very well how the woman behaved.
Although their relationship was close, Liza still did not fully put her trust in it. The woman was still putting a barrier between the two of them that the woman had created.
Liza shook her head."I don't have a problem, Mom. Let's continue the journey."
The woman immediately broke off her eye contact. Including ending the conversation between the two of them.
"I'm sorry, I lied. Not everything I feel you should know, Mas." Inner Liza.
Fariz looked at the woman with a spark of disappointment. He doesn't even know if she loves him or not.

"Liza..." Sharifah hugged her daughter. The middle-aged woman's cry instantly broke when she hugged Liza. The same was the case with Liza who could not hold back her tears from dripping.
"How are you, son? Did Fariz treat you well there?" The question immediately came from the lips of Sharifah.
"Of course Fariz treated Liza well" Muhsin said.
Syarifah only glanced at her husband at a glance and ignored Muhsin's remarks.
"Thank God I'm good, Bun. Mas Fariz always treated me well," replied Liza glancing at her husband who was now standing behind the mother.
"Now go inside. It is not good to see the neighbors" said Muhsin.
"Yes, now we go inside. Mother has made food for you both."
Liza and Fariz nodded.
Now, the four people entered the whitewashed house with an aura of happiness emanating from the fourth face.
"How's your job there, Riz?" muhsin asked as they sat together in the living room.
"Thank God, everything is good, Dad. It's just that last week I had to go home late at night because of overtime" Fariz replied politely.
Muhsin.
"Then, what about Liza? Mother is afraid of Liza why-why if left alone," said Sharifah look worried.
"Mother don't worry. There the area is safe," Liza replied touching the middle-aged woman's hand."Mas Fariz came home from work not too late."
Sharifah nodded and smiled a little. At least Liza's reply slightly relieved her heart.
"Fariz is the man in charge. And Father did not choose him wrong as a son-in-law.Including guarding Liza," timpal Muhsin stared proudly at his daughter-in-law.
While Fariz seemed blushed to hear the praise of his in-laws.
"You're staying here, aren't you, Liza?" ask Sharifah.
Liza glanced at her husband at a glance and looked back at the mother.
"No, Mommy. I stayed at Umi Fardah's house. I'll follow wherever my husband goes."
Sharifah took a small breath."Yes it's okay. What matters is that tomorrow you're here again?"
Liza nodded.
"How many days are you staying here?" muhsin looked at the two in turn.
"Sunday, Bah. That's enough time to spend here" Fariz replied.
"Liz, yesterday your room Mother cleaned. All Danu Bunda's clothes are stored in the warehouse. Actually want Mommy to share it with people."
The look on Liza's face immediately changed hearing the words of Sharifah.
