My husband, my Beloved (Revised)

My husband, my Beloved (Revised)
Dusk and Rain



Rain stood in the middle of the stretch of tea plantation was toting baskets while picking tea even with a stiff movement. His smile continued to be on the lips that he polished with a matte lip of pink nude. His old ash hijab has not been changed since his arrival this afternoon.


"Mrs, Rain. Magrib in a minute. Pamali you know pregnant women outside at this hour". Said one of the mother tea pickers who accidentally passed by.


"Yes, Mom. Thanks for reminding me". Rain smiled in a friendly manner. The mother left after previously nodding back at Rain.


Ega saw his wife's behavior from the porch of the house while sighing deeply. His wife is hard to remember. Rain turned to her husband and waved her hand for her husband to come closer. Not wanting to make Rain angry, Ega ran over to his wife who had not wanted to be accompanied.


"So wanted to be banned, now call". Ega said when he was next to Rain.


"Eits, young pregnant women don't like to be protested". Rain snapped his finger while laughing giggling.


"May be kissed, yes". Ega at a glance kiss Rain's cheek.


"Shame on you, Mom". Rain rubbed his cheeks.


"Come, in. We have to go home early tomorrow".


Rain shook her head holding her husband's hand.


"Here, I introduce you to emmm" Rain hung up his sentence and pointed to the red orange tinge that adorned the sky that afternoon. Twilight.


"About?" Ega is waiting for the next sentence from Rain.


"Cens, perfect". Rain gave a happy smile to see the state of the sky that has been decorated with orange color.


Rain held her husband's hand


"Hi, dusk. Here you look more beautiful than in the city where I live. Sorry, yeah I just introduced you to her". Rain glanced at her husband.


"He's Ragga. He's my husband, my lover. But you're still the twilight I like. I'm still your connoisseur even though our meetings are always momentary".


Ega just smiled at his wife's behavior, is it healthy that he has spoken at dusk?. The day he talked to the rain? That was his life so he just befriended the rain and dusk.


"But that red orange tinge is usually not seen if your favorite rain is present". Ega embraces the shoulder of his wife who looks to enjoy the beautiful twilight.


"I mean, dusk and rain will not meet? Dusk is still present even though the rain comes Mas". Rain pursed her lips irritated by her husband's words which seemed to blame the rain.


"He was always faithful, He came in time, even for a moment. And it rained, just a little not knowing the time as it came". Rain said softly.


"Western love Rakha and Zein yes, a moment and do not know time". Ega's words made Rain momentarily digest her husband's sentence and then laugh together to enjoy a tinge of red orange that began to blacken.

"Be careful, yeah. Take care of your move A. Auntie wants the atmosphere here to be crowded with Rain". Said Eyebrow releasing the return of Ega and Rain.


"It's not that easy, Tan. wait until our lecture in this first semester is complete". Reply to Ega who is sitting behind his wheel.


"Your money's a lot, it's gonna be easy to take care of". Said Mang Odang chiming.


"Rain does not want to use Papa Kek's money, my savings money has been thinned. I've got to turn my brain around for some effort here other than tea". Ega pretended to look dizzy with his temples.


"Why?" Ask Alis and Mang Odang together.


"Fearful of anger and resentment, Cake. Kasian my Dedek". Rain grinned the horse while rubbing his stomach that did not feel nausea since his arrival yesterday.


"You're talking funny, just like Zein did when he was young. It can always please people". Said Mang Odang while shaking his head. Rain just laughed.


"Valaylaam"


The car drove slowly away from the yard. The new house for Mang Odang and Alis has been completed thanks to the help of many residents.


"Quick movement is also you, Mas". Rain pointed to a building made of glass and wood that was in the construction stage.


"What's that?" He pretended not to understand.


"Maybe a birdhouse". Rain laughed.


"Want to be named what's the place? Rain's? twilight? or rain?" Ega's question made Rain clench his forehead.


"Don't all three, I'll think about it when Dedek was born".


Ega just nodded. Their car had already exited the plantation area and headed for the big road leading to the main road. Rain continued to rub his stomach while smiling faintly. There was so much in his mind. One of them wanted to bury all the painful memories of his hometown.


The little rain that was always lonely and shunned, only befriended the rain and twilight. He wanted to bury all that. And Bandung will make it a new soul. The story may not be like Mother who is surrounded by many relatives and friends. But Rain had no regrets. The owner of the scenario is not without reason sending him a Ragga very quickly and a small fetus in his stomach.


Rain never felt like he was losing anything, instead he was gaining too much.


"Hey, why did he. Nausea?" Ask her husband who was ignored earlier.


"When do we move?, I want to meet the rain there" Rain asked. That's his habit of not answering even asking.


"It's very sad, Yang. We need to talk to Mom and Auntie first". Ega stopped the car at the intersection of red lights.


"I've spoken, they want to come with me. You think the restaurants and cafes you're making will be able to walk if we both start it?" Rain began to feel his stomach nauseous.


"Wiih, I can guess my thoughts turned out. Kirain had no idea what the building was doing"


"In addition to the perverted brain, it turns out there is also a little intelligence that you have". Rain laughed mockingly at her husband.


The car drove back.


"O Allah, his name was taken up and dropped again. Yes, Yang". Ega rubbed his chest, pretending to sob.


"Thank you, Mom. Always make me a priority. I don't want to go back to my hometown. Let it be a memory".


Ega simply nodded, trying to make peace with his heart.


No more conversations graced half their way home. Rain fell asleep clutching his handkerchief.


"I'm sorry if the wound I inflicted on the house is too deep to make you want to leave immediately. I'll grant it. You should always be happy, Rain. Your happiness should be like time, keep turning. Don't be like a momentary twilight or like a sudden rain".


The love of the two young people at the beginning of the rainy month is indeed too sudden. They are both lonely and in need of each other. They asked each other, wanted each other even though they had to be grudged. But love is supposed to forgive each other, until here both understand that maturity can not be measured from an age and experience.


How Rain survives when her husband is taken in revenge. He draws near to the owner of life. Then everything is open easily. Ragga who chose to return to the path of his religion was able to reach Rain's disappointed heart.


Trust God, everything will be easy.


Don't forget what?
