Marry Me, Mr. Lecturer

Fear

"How are you?" Farel's eyes stared lovingly at his little wife.

He unceasingly thanked Niki for her presence in his life. Although in the wrong way, but maybe it should be like that God opened the eyes of his heart that was closed blind love to Marisa. Niki is like a key that opens the city of Pandora, where it is trapped inside.

"I'm fine" Niko said in a choked voice. There was something she did not dare to reveal to her husband. Maybe not in the moment.

"Thank you." Farel looked at him softly.

"For what?"

"For your courage ask me to marry you first."

"Switch on." Farel chuckled amusedly as Niki's pinch landed on his waist.

"Mr Farel?" A health worker cut off their intimacy.

"Yes, right."

"Waiting for the administration room, sir, the body is ready to be dispatched."

Farel and Niki looked at each other and sighed at the same time, "Thank you, we're there now."

Just two steps, Niki's phone rang, "Mommy phone, I got it first."

"Yes, you just wait here just let me finish it there." Niki nodded small.

After Farel left her on a park bench, Niki shifted the moving green image on her phone.

"Hello, Ma."

"Hello, Niki how are you. Where are you now, honey?" Just hearing her mother's worried voice, Niki's cries broke again.

"Maye ...."

"Patience, Niki. Where's your husband?"

"Mas Farel is taking care of the administration again, we will be home soon" Niki said, sobbing.

"Same Papa is also getting ready, soon to your house. You okay, Nik? Last night Mama Farel called, Mama was shocked to immediately not be able to sleep but Mama did not dare to call you because she knew you must be bothered and messed up."

Niki continued to cry regardless of her mother's explanation.

"Are you okay, Nik? Mama knows you're sad, but don't drag on."

"Maaaa, Niki is scared."

"Why are you afraid?"

"Nr ... We'll see you at home, Mom. Mas Farel is done." Niki disconnected the phone and soon shrank her tears, as her husband was seen at the end of the hallway walking towards her.

"Mama why?" farel asked as soon as he was by his side.

"Just ask the news and say you're getting ready for home."

"You why? like crying out?" Farel held onto Niki's chin and raised it to make it look clearer.

"Snakes a little, miss Mama. It's over, we're going home now?" Niki tried to distract her husband.

On the way home in the early morning hours, the sound of sirens of two ambulances roaring broke the silence of the city. Niki and Farel's hearts throbbed as the ambulance motorcade was behind their car. Both of them were silent and unable to speak during the journey.

The arrival of three bodies in the house of Farel, enough to make a scene of the surrounding residents. They were trying to find out who else besides Marisa and her baby.

But Farel and his family ignored it all. It's been quite tough for those with this back-to-back heavy situation. Farel had to carry Galih's body, because his friend's parents had been dead since he was little so no relatives could take care of him.

The three bodies were taken to a nearby cemetery, Niki who wanted to join was not allowed by Farel because his face looks pale.

"I'm still strong."

"I'm not asking you, but I'm begging you to listen to me this time, honey. It's hot outside and you don't sleep all night." Farel confronted him as he desperately wanted to join the group.

"According to your husband's request, Niki." Mama who before she reached home had come, held her hand.

Niki eventually relents rather than obstructing Marisa and Galih's funeral.

Arriving at the funeral, Farel had seen a beautiful woman get off the luxury car. The woman was wearing a dress and wearing sunglasses and a veil covering her head. The woman was standing among the many people who drove her to the funeral.

Marisa and her baby were buried in one burrow, as soon as Galih's body was revealed the woman's cry broke but she covered it with a veil so as not to provoke the suspicion of the other.

Farel breathed. He knows who that woman is. The pain of a wife who is left for ever by her husband, but in bad circumstances.

'Didn't you see tears dripping down your wife's cheeks? The tears will never dry. Forever will flow when he remembers you, but not the happy cry of remembering your kindness. Each of his stuffing was full of disappointment and anger but also love.'

Farel felt sorry for Galih's wife, at least she was much luckier than that woman. He had found a new heart port before this happened. However, Delilah and her infant daughter had to accept the fact that her husband had betrayed her so deeply.

"Niki, what did you want to talk to Mama about this morning?"

While Farel is at the funeral, Mama Niki takes the opportunity to approach her daughter.

"Ma, Niki .. don't want to have children." Niki held her mother's hand tightly.

"What do you mean, Nik? You don't want to get pregnant yet? Yes nothing is the deal, you finish the thesis and then graduation just think of having children."

"Not that. Niki does not want to get pregnant and have children," repeated Niki this time more firmly.

Mama frowned. He did not understand why his daughter suddenly had such thoughts.

"Why?"

"Ga wants to." Niki shook her head firmly with a face frowning in fear.

"Have you talked about this with your husband?" ask Mama slowly. There was a sense of disappointment in hearing his son's decision.

"Not yet."

"This kind of thing should be discussed together, Niki. Moreover, you and Farel are only children, of course there is hope there is a successor to your family."

Niki looked down deeply, she understood so much that she was afraid to say this to her husband.

"Mba Marisa died from childbirth .. her blood is a lot." Niki shivered in fear.

Mama took a deep breath, finally she knew why her daughter had such thoughts.

"Niki, giving birth is a woman's nature. Each woman has been given a comfortable place for a baby to grow in her stomach. If we are healthy and capable, for no apparent reason rejecting the gift is how sad the Creator is. He wants to leave a new soul to be born into the world through a mother." Mama tucked Niki's hair in between her ears. His daughter looked dreamy listening to his explanation.

"And Mama who was entrusted by God this beautiful princess was very happy," he continued.

"What time Niki was born ... Mama's in pain too?"

"It hurts, but through pain it brings great happiness. Mama is willing to feel the pain repeatedly, as long as the child you gave birth to feels happiness again and again."

"Talk well to your husband. Don't take unilateral decisions and think about this carefully." Mama stopped her explanation because it was heard that the group from the funeral had returned.
