Geo tilted his body to the left, observing Aish who was agitated. She felt uncomfortable being in bed with him.
Though he was asleep while sleeping on the sofa leaning on him. To the point that his shoulders went numb. He tries to break the memory of Ara who continues to haunt. It was inappropriate for him to think of another woman while there was already a wife by his side.
"Why it's not released, it's so hot it can't sleep." Not a question, because Geo's hand was already moving to remove the instant hijab attached to Aish's head. Then untied the bond that intertwined his wife's long hair.
"If you want to sleep, the hair tie is removed, the hair also needs to breath."
Aish is almost out of breath getting the attention of Geo. The man who was four years younger than him was always able to make his heart rattling. It was not her hair that could not breathe, but her chest that was made asphyxiated.
"Mas, don't gini. I'm afraid to fall in love with you" Aish told me with a pounding in the chest.
Although embarrassed to say it but still Aish revealed, in order to choose the next step. Letting his heart fall in love with Geo or putting up defensive fortifications for his feelings in order not to be seriously injured.
"Why fear, am I your husband?" Geo asked as she gently touched Aish's cheek. As much as possible brushed off Ara's shadow on her head. Do not want to make a woman who has the status of his wife disappointed.
"If I fall in love later makes Mas bother," Aish did not dare to look into Geo's eyes for too long. She likes the black twinkle of the eye, but Aish is too afraid to be disappointed if she harbors a man who is her own husband.
Aish shook his head, not explaining what was inside his head.
"Do not forbid your heart to fall in love with your own husband, later added hm. We go through all this together, if there are things that make you uncomfortable do not hold. If you want to tell a story, tell a story." Geo smiled slightly getting rid of the strands of hair that were stuck on Aish's cheeks.
"But you can't love me, can you? I don't want to sue you for that. I don't want to be a no-knower for wanting Mas's love either."
"Love is my business. I will still give you a birth and a mental living" Geo planted a kiss on Aish's forehead with his eyes closed.
Reassuring himself for what he said. Heavy, of course against the will of the heart it is very heavy. Geo could not touch the woman who did not become the owner of his heart. But now, Aish is his wife. Right to everything that is on him.
“Sorry to trouble you. Don't force it if it makes Mas tortured, I know there are other women's names here.” Aish placed her palm on Geo's chest. Saying that sentence with a feeling of unwillingness.
I don't know why he doesn't know himself like this. Though Aish is well aware that Geo married her just because he wanted to provide protection for her.
"There's another woman's name. But I have vowed to Allah to take your responsibility from Abi. To keep you happy, to take care of you and to fulfill all your needs is my responsibility." Geo held Aish's hand against his chest. Let this matter of feeling only he and God know. Geo feels guilty. It was the same as betraying his wife. But how else, it's not easy for him to forget Ara.
