My Ribs

Hugs

Arjuna ordered food to the hotel waiter and a few minutes later the food he ordered came. Arjuna put the bowl of porridge he wanted to give Kinara on the nightstand when he heard Kinara's phone ring.

Arjuna picked up Kinara's phone and swiped the green icon to see who had contacted Kinara. Arjuna walked towards the balcony of the room so that his voice while receiving the phone did not disturb Kinara.

"Hello, Ra! Mom didn't stop by your room, did she?! I don't want to bother you. Mom went straight home. Be careful and be a good wife, yes! Don't embarrass me!"cerocos the woman who called on Kinara's cell phone was none other than Kinara's mother.

"It's me, ma'am, Arjuna," Arjuna's voice shocked Kinara's mother. Kinara's mother even went back to looking at her phone screen to see if she had dialed the wrong number.

"Eh..Junas. I thought Kinara was, "that Kinara's mother sounded awkward.

"Kinara's not feeling well, ma'am," Arjuna said honestly.

"Not feeling well?"asked Kinara's mother repeating Arjuna's words, sounding surprised.

"Mother don't worry! I asked the doctor to check on her. The doctor said, Kinara only had a fever, "sohut Arjuna while looking at Kinara who was still asleep in bed.

"That's a pain if it's a little spoiled, Jun. Usually if sick, Kinara only took stall medicine and then asked the mother to hug him. After that, Kinara will usually be healthy again. The pain will be long if you don't hug. I used to change my mother to make Kinara feel sick, if she was sick," Kinara's mother said in a soft voice at the end of the sentence because she remembered her husband.

Hearing her mother-in-law's words, Arjuna recalled when Kinara deliriously called her mother this morning and asked to be hugged.

"Oh, so, huh, Mom?"sahut Arjuna who felt her mother-in-law's voice was a bit different at the end of the sentence.

"Yes.What..do you need to go there?"ask Kinara's mother hesitantly, "Eh. I didn't mean to bother you. But if you need mom's help, I'll be there, "continue Kinara's mother sounds awkward.

"No need, Mom! Kinara now is my responsibility, I don't want to trouble mom. So I'll try to take care of Kinara, "that Arjuna who won't bother her mother-in-law.

"Yes, that's it. Mom's going home. If you need help, just call!"said Kinara's mother who did not want to disturb the togetherness of the child and his daughter-in-law.

"Yes, ma'am," Arjuna said and the voice call was terminated.

Arjuna went back into the room and sat on the edge of the bed, "Ra, Ra, get up! Eat first!"said Arjuna as he patted Kinara's cheeks slowly.

Slowly Kinara opened her eyes, and Arjuna helped her to sit down. Arjuna painstakingly fed Kinara, until the porridge in the bowl was exhausted. Arjuna gave Kinara the medicine, and without asking what medicine Arjuna was giving, Kinara took the medicine.

"I'm sorry, I'm so troublesome to Mas Juna" Kinara said in a weak voice, bowing his head with a pale-looking face.

"Rest, that you may recover quickly" Arjuna said, helping Kinara lie down, but a moment later Arjuna remembered the words of her mother-in-law.

"𝙆𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙧𝙖 𝙞𝙩𝙪 𝙠𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙪 𝙨𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙩 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙠 𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙟𝙖, 𝙅𝙪𝙣. 𝘽𝙞𝙖𝙨𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙖 𝙠𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙪 𝙨𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙩, 𝙆𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙧𝙖 𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙖 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙪𝙢 𝙤𝙗𝙖𝙩 𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙪𝙣𝙜 𝙠𝙚𝙢𝙪𝙙𝙞𝙖𝙣 𝙢𝙚𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙖 𝙞𝙗𝙪 𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙪𝙠 𝙢𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙡𝙪𝙠𝙣𝙮𝙖. 𝙎𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙖𝙝 𝙞𝙩𝙪 𝙗𝙞𝙖𝙨𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙖 𝙆𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙧𝙖 𝙖𝙠𝙖𝙣 𝙨𝙚𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙡𝙖𝙜𝙞. 𝙎𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙩𝙣𝙮𝙖 𝙗𝙖𝙠𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙣 𝙡𝙖𝙢𝙖 𝙠𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙪 𝙣𝙜𝙜𝙖𝙠 𝙠𝙖𝙢𝙪 𝙥𝙚𝙡𝙪𝙠. 𝘿𝙪𝙡𝙪 𝙞𝙗𝙪 𝙜𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙖𝙣 𝙨𝙖𝙢𝙖 𝘼𝙮𝙖𝙝 𝙗𝙪𝙖𝙩 𝙢𝙚𝙡𝙪𝙠 𝙆𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙧𝙖 𝙠𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙪 𝙙𝙞𝙖 𝙨𝙚𝙙𝙖𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙩,"

"Do you want something?"tanya Arjuna looked at Kinara's pale face and lips that looked dry.

"I. i.. "Kinara seemed hesitant to say her wish.

"Say! I will follow your wishes," said Arjuna still staring fixedly at the face of his wife who subdued his gaze.

Kinara looked at Arjuna at a glance then her eyeballs seemed to move in an indeterminate direction, "I want to be hugged," Kinara said in a soft voice and then turned her face away.

Arjuna smiled faintly, it turned out that what his mother-in-law said was indeed true. Arjuna then climbed onto the bed, lay down next to Kinara then carried the woman into his arms, "Sleep!"arjuna said gently as he stroked Kinara's long hair.

"Mas Juna don't be angry anymore, huh?! I'm sorry!"said Kinara while submerging his face in the chest of Arjuna's field and hugging Arjuna's body tightly.

"I'm not mad at you. Sleep on!"arjuna continued to stroke Kinara's hair.

During their marriage, Arjuna had never been to her mother-in-law's house at all. Therefore, Kinara's mother was very happy when Arjuna and Kinara came and said she would stay at her house.

"Sorry, yes Jun! Mother's house is small and simple. Not as good as your house," said Ms. Kinara while taking the two of them into her house.

"It's okay, Mom. The important thing is to be comfortable,"sahut Arjuna.

"You should have told me, if you'd come and stay here. Mother, 'will be able to cook a lot of food, '" said Kinara's mother did not feel good. Since Kinara got married, she has only lived alone and certainly only cooked a little for herself. Sometimes when lazy to cook, the middle-aged woman also chose to buy food outside.

"What if we go to a restaurant for dinner together?"tanya Arjuna looked at his wife and mother-in-law alternately.

"Mom doesn't like eating out, Mom. If you buy food outside, it must also be wrapped to be eaten at home, "sahut Kinara.

"Oh, so, huh? Then let me buy some food outside. What do you and your mom want to eat? Just say! Let me find it later and we can eat at home together" Arjuna said earnestly.

Eventually Kinara and her mother told them what they wanted to eat and Arjuna rushed to buy it.

"Mom, sorry, huh? Mom has been living alone since I got married" Kinara said after Arjuna left.

"No need to worry about Mom! Mom is fine. A wife has to follow her husband. Be a good wife and be devoted to your husband. If there is a problem, it should be discussed carefully. If guilty, do not refuse to apologize. And if you can, don't even think of separation except death that separates you, "' Kinara's mother said at length.

"Yes, ma'am,"sohen Kinara smiled faintly.

"You love her?"mother Kinara asked curiously, considering that the two were married because of an arranged marriage.

"Yes,"so Kinara with a smile on her lips made Kinara's mother happy. From his daughter's face it is seen if the only princess is happy.

"Thank God you're happy. Mother was also happy," said Mother Kinara smiling while stroking Kinara's hair lovingly.

"Mom knows? It turns out Mas Juna is the one I once helped, who once gave this bracelet to me" Kinara said as she showed Yang's bracelet on her wrist.

"really?"asked Kinara's mother in surprise, "You didn't think that the one who gave you the bracelet was Arjuna. It turns out you guys are a match, "said Kinara's mother.

Ever since Arjuna gave her the bracelet, Kinara always wore it. But when Kinara was about to marry Arjuna, Kinara's mother told Kinara to remove the bracelet. Kinara's mother didn't want Kinara to wear a bracelet that wasn't her husband's. But who would have thought if the one who gave the bracelet turned out to be the person who is now Kinara's husband.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

The sound of the door being knocked made the mother and child chatter stop. The two looked at each other as if they were both asking ready to go to their homes.
