Fattan laid her body on the bed, her head resting on her right hand. His beautiful eyes stared at the ceiling of the room and his mind was fixed on his goal, which was to pursue the love of his wife. He was not tired yet he wanted to follow the advice of his Papa.
"Why am I acting like a husband who doesn't trust his wife" Fattan said in her mind.
"Jealously makes me a selfish and childish man. And without me knowing it, I hurt my wife. She's a submissive wife, until she obeys my orders" Inner Fattan.
After the restaurant (Blessing Culinary Restaurant) officially operated, Sakia began to occupy herself in the boutique and Alif was asked to take care of the restaurant. And only once did Sakia go to the restaurant. That is not Sakia's real desire. She just wants to be devoted to her husband. Because it was her husband's request, which was to keep her distance from Alif. Until he chooses to stay away from the person who accompanies him build a business from scratch. Is Sakia selfish? I don't know. She just wants to be devoted to her husband.
Sick? Sakia initially feels hurt but gradually she gets used to it. Sakia will only go to the restaurant if she feels homesick for Nurin and Alif. Yes, because Alif and Nurin who take care of the restaurant with four new employees of the female gender. Their intention in addition to making money is also to help the women who need work. While Nada and Sakia, they both develop a business in a boutique.
"So aren't you asleep?" Sakia approached her husband. The woman had just done a routine before going to bed. What else if instead of washing the face with soap and brushing his teeth.
"Yet. Kia, come here" said Fattan.
Sakia crawled on top of the bed. Sit leaning on the head of the bed and do not forget to remove the hijab. "What's wrong?" Sakia glanced at her husband for a moment.
Fattan got up and sat down like his wife. "I'm sorry for Brother being selfish. Sister is too tight Kia. From now on, Kia does not need to keep her distance from Alif. Brother Fattan will not be angry anymore" said Fattan seriously.
Sakia was silent for a moment. "Snob't too late to realize it. Kia was comfortable with what she asked for. Kia will not ask you to understand because it is useless. It is better to be silent than to ask to be understood. Because our own happiness is created, not others" explained Sakia.
"Honestly, Kia was angry at first because Kak Fattan did not refuse the family's request. A few days after getting married, Kia began to realize something. It is not anger that we have to show but gratitude. Grateful for Brother Fattan agreeing to the decision they made"
"With marriage, Kia can get out of Mama and Papa's house. And when Big Brother follows Kia's request to move, Kia is happier. Thank you, Brother"
"Keeping a distance with Alif is proof of a wife's devotion to her husband, even more so it's a husband's request. Keeping the feeling of Brother is one of Kia's duties. So take it easy, Kia is comfortable. Yes, even though at first Kia was disappointed with the attitude of Big Brother who did not believe in Kia but let it be. I don't want to think about that anymore"
"Some, someone who really loves, he will trust his wife/husband even though the word is a lie. Prohibiting it is not jealousy but an attitude of egoism. And not forbidding does not mean he is not love and affection, but he believes. That's according to Kia" Sakia said.
"Kia's husband's sister who deserves Kia to take care of her feelings. Forgive Kia if during our marriage Kia made Sister uncomfortable with Kia's attitude. Don't follow Kia's love anymore. After all in this world there are couples who are betrothed without any love" said Sakia at length.
Fattan was silent. His mouth was stiff to meet. Yes, it's obvious he'll be quiet. Because before she stressed Sakia was keeping her distance from Alif, Sakia had already told her that she was self-aware of her status as a wife. But his selfish attitude made Fattan doubt his wife's words.
"What do you have to do to make Kia happy again?" ask Fattan. Now his position is facing his wife.
"Let's live what's been outlined for us" Saki smiled back.
Fattan hugged Sakia. And Sakia let Fattan hold her tight. Reflex she stroked her husband's shoulder. "Don't regret what has passed. Let's make the past a lesson so that our future becomes better" said Sakia.
Fattan is getting sobbing. The regret made her crying break. "Kia, forgive Brother" he said on the sidelines of his crying.
Sakia broke her husband's embrace. Wiping the clear hair coming out of her husband's eyelids. "These tears are evidence of regret and love. Kia will learn to love Sister Again. Brother don't cry anymore" Sakia said smilingly.
"Hahahahaha" Sakia's laughter broke out. For the first time Sakia laughed when there was only her and Fattan in the room.
"Sister, don't be like a child. That brother was four years different from Kia. When my sister was crying. Cemen was very excited" sneered Sakia while pinching her husband's cheeks. "Gemes deh" he said.

"Papa's face looks bright this morning" led Papa Aziz. The middle-aged man was watching the television broadcast in the morning.
"Father, thank you for the advice" said Fattan taking his place next to his Papa.
"It is the duty of Papa to give advice to the children of Papa. Remember that! Don't let your wife get hurt again. Give him comfort and let him fly high. And do not forget to support him in every activity as long as it is a beneficial thing" explained Papa Aziz.
"Yes, Papa. Oh yeah, Sakia and I don't want to take any money from Papa. We want to live independently. If Papa's money is more, Papa just donates it to people in need" Fattan said.
"Papa wants to find community first. Donate let not many questions in the afterlife" kekeh Papa Aziz.
"Well, do you want a donation? Me, Nurin, Nada and Alif, the four of us made a charity group. Money from our donors goes to people in need. In two days we will go to Wahidin Hospital. There was a patient named Asdi, 11 years old, a referral patient from West Sulawesi. Poor sir, they are from a family that can not afford. For operations only, they rely on money from various communities that help them"
"The son of Asdi was hit by a motorcyclist until a bone in his ankle was broken. Want to not have to be amputated because it has long been left by his parents at home" explained Sakia at length.
"O Allah, how noble is the heart of Papa's son-in-law. No Farhan, no Sakia, you two are the best daughters-in-law. Papa Aher must be happy to have a daughter who is sholeh like Sakia" said Papa Aziz praising his son-in-law.
"Hehehehe. This is also evidence that Papa's son managed to lead Kia into a good person" Sakia said.
"Now last night I gave him the freedom he was praising me before Papa" Fattan said.
