MEDICINE FOR MY HUSBAND

CHAPTER 8

MEDICINE FOR MY HUSBAND

The clock just hit 12 times. I can't sleep. Occasionally lie on your right side, then on your left. Sometimes sharpen the listener's senses just to expect to hear a knock on the door. Then Mas Danu sat down next to me to talk about what really happened. But, until an hour passed, he did not appear either.

Kuraih HP then presses Mas Danu's number. Just a few seconds of sounding a connecting tone, suddenly turned off. I called back who was immediately turned off again. My throat was choked, tears that had not long dried up were shed again. My finger quickly sent WA messages.

"Mas, hurry home."

Check two has turned blue. There is online writing on his profile, but the message is not also replied to. My crying is getting louder. I cuddle my pillow while sobbing. Danu must be very disappointed. How do I explain that I love him?

Recalling his cold gaze at dinner last night, I shook my head in excitement. Looks like, Mas Danu won't hear my words at all. The main factor I want to marry him is because of the lure of money from his mother. Who would have thought that with the passage of time, I felt comfortable with it?

I gulped, felt very devastated but could not blame Mas Danu for judging me so negatively.

I sat down, made coffee in the kitchen, and took her to the front room where Mas Danu's bouquet of roses lay on the sofa. Remembering the attention he gave, my heart was like being pierced. Last night, we were still laughing together. I grabbed a bouquet of flowers and hugged her while crying. Sometimes staring at the door.

A slow knock on the door spontaneously made me stand up, step quickly to open it. Mas Danu's face looked pale. Without saying anything, he waltzed in, headed straight for the room and smashed down.

"Where are you from?"

Only silence answered. He immediately lay on his back as I began to slash down on his side. I took a deep breath and hugged her from behind. It felt warm tears were again rolling on the cheeks.

"I love you, Mom."

"You just love my money!" resounding.

"It's just that." I try not to sob. My hands hugged her body tighter

"Wait here first, Li. I'll call your husband first."

I'm trying to prevent. But I didn't ignore. He came out of the park screaming for Danu mas. I immediately turned the groceries into a plastic one and squeezed my hands as the voices of Mom and Mas Danu walked over.

"I'm at work, Mom. I shouldn't have come here."

"Mom just took a picture."

"Why bring Liana here?" Mas Danu's tone sounded objectionable.

I bite my lips. Did Mas Danu hate it so much that I didn't want to come here? Or was he afraid that I would drain his ATM after knowing that one of his studios was so crowded?

I rubbed the corner of my eyes while standing up, turned around, then ran out without a grocery bag.

"Liii!"

"Leave it, Mom. Might want to buy something."

"Did you guys fight?"

Their voices disappeared along with

Just about to close my eyes when I heard a slow knock, then the sound of the door being opened. I immediately got up from the sofa then without heeding Mas Danu, immediately walked towards the room. Instead of talking continuously, it is better like this.

"Make tea."

I took a breath, I thought, anger would keep him quiet. Since it's not the rebel type, I immediately made him some tea and put him on the table without saying anything.

"Your spending is lagging. It's in the trunk."

I nodded, then left him. After 15 minutes, he sleeps next to me.

"Don't repeat it again. Mom asked me all sorts of things."

Foolish, I said in my heart. I hugged the bolster and tried to close my eyes.

***

I was deliberately lazing. After doing everything, go straight to the upper room and sleep. Or rather, pretend to sleep. I kept ignoring Mas Danu's call to make breakfast. If he goes to the dining table, he will find rendang from Mom, as well as my dishes that have been served ready to be enjoyed.

"I'm off today."

I know, I said in my heart. It's been his routine to take a day off every Friday. But, wait a minute. Why does his voice sound so close? I immediately pulled the blanket over the body and pretended to sleep.

"Make me tea." There was a sound that was getting closer, then the sound of the door being opened.

"Ci."

I kept on shutting up. He started it first. Even if I try to explain, it's still free. So, it's better this way. Following suit.

My chest rumbled as the blankets unfolded, the bed creaked, then he flipped my body to face him. His hand slowly moved stroking my hair, then down to the shoulder. I opened my eyes slightly as I felt her breath on my face. We sat.

"What do you want?"

"Don't pretend not to know."
