Neighbor Becomes Husband

Eps. 104. Trying to Keep in Love

Levi and Kharis walked slowly along a beach in hand. The condition of this beach is still the same as six years before, natural cool and calm. The difference is, now this beach has been managed into a tourist spot, has had a wall fence and there is a guard post at the entrance access, as well as a pendopo and a cafe building near the entrance. On the outskirts of the beach there are a few small modest cottages. The location is quiet because it is not a weekend or holiday, and it is profitable for this married couple because they can enjoy the calm atmosphere of the beach.

Kharis recognized this place from the approximate location, not expecting his favorite beach to have changed. Fortunately, the cleanliness and natural shape of the beach is maintained by the manager. And one more thing, the road to this beach location is now much better, wider with hotmix asphalt, so driving here becomes more comfortable.

“What you remember most from this place, sweetheart.

Levi asked the wife who was now in her arms. They stopped for a moment, about six years Kharis could not do this, sitting on the beach, enjoying the pounding waves, feeling the warm sand, and the blowing of the wind with a thick salty aroma. Levi took him to the beach several times while in the capital, but it was very different. The beach water there is not clear, has been polluted and tends to be gray and even blackened. But here, the clear blue sky, as far as the eye can see the beautiful colors of green and blue dominance ranging from edge to far to the border of the skyline, Kharis eyes are satisfied with the beauty of this place.

“Mam... Denger not what did I say?”

“Iya... sorry papi, I am again enjoying this place.

Sorry yes...What was the tone?”

“What you remember most here..”.

“ Ohh... The most I remember anyway.. mmmh.. limestone cliffs there, because there's a lot of big trees there and there's another cliff next to it, so it's like there's two walls on the left right, so it's a little bay kayak. That's the place to take pictures like now. Papi see, they're from behind the limestone walls. We're going there, huh?”

Kharis pointed to several people who emerged from behind the cliff that jutted into the sea. Kharis is always enthusiastic about the beach. From the city of J he had already planned to visit this place.

“Honey... we do not bring a change of clothes, the water is as high as the thigh of the man, means as high as your waist..”.

“Iya yes.. water has started to plug, it's noon anyway we walk here earlier.”

“No other access huh? Get off that hill maybe?”

“Nggak pi... it will directly cliff like that, and indeed in that part rather deep, if the tide is just feet away. Behind the cliff the white sand is very soft, pi.. whereas I want to sit there..”.

“Sit in the cottage just, come on..”.

Levi gently pulled Kharis' hand towards a cottage. While sitting in a lounge chair made of brown plastic, Levi repeated the sentence again, his wife only remembered the beach and apparently did not remember something that Levi meant.

“Still remember not something beautiful we did here..”.

“Kita? Oh yes... we've been here that time, hehehe... Yes I remember, after this I disappeared, hehehe..”.

The hand of Levi rubbed the wife's cheek.

“Dumb decision, you know not.. You have planned it like that yes...love me the most beautiful memories then mutusin me..”.

“Iya... hehehe.. but a week in Smrg I cry continuously..”.

“Oh... Did you run there at that time? To whose place?”

“Temen me, still remember Queen right?”

“Neremember..”

“Iihh papi... which I introduce the same papi at home graduation ceremony, remember?”

“No memory dear... I did not notice.”

“Mmmh, which I introduced with Delanno to Lucas, remember?”

“Your menus yes mam.. mmh yes remember there are three people, but forget their names let alone their faces.”.

“So kangen Queen deh akunya, udah merit ya he...”.

“Did never contact-rebellion again?”

Kharis said softly as he looked far away towards the sea.

“Sweetheart... here..”.

Levi, touched by the words of Kharis, took Kharis by the hand, sat his wife in his lap, only to realize that his wife was completely cut off from the outside world, having no other life than himself and the children. Levi hugged his wife tightly, swiping for a moment the cheeks of the two of them affectionately.

“Pi... fear that his chair is broken..”.

“Strong and sturdy chair, you are also very light mam... You seem to be hard to fat ya. after giving birth to Ayin, your body does not increase gini-gini aja. Gerald said you still look like you're not married.”.

“Gerald excessive akh.. Udah have two children I, my time has not changed at all...”.

“Emang does not change dear, keep beautiful and funny.”.

“Iiih... papi, funny what..”.

“Your eyes... that's what I like the most..”.

Levi turned his own body to the wife sitting sideways on his lap, and the husband kissed the wife's eyes.

“Papi... there are people ihh... not polite..”.

“Hahaha.. from the first you like that, mam... too environmentally conscious, always afraid to be seen people, gemes become..”.

“Iya lah... manners must be maintained dong..”

“Sepi is here..”.

A kiss was again launched this time on the wife's cheek.

“Papi akh..”

“See in the cottage over there, they are also again kissing. Most of us have merit dear.. but I feel again dating anyway now, so remember we kissed the first time where yes... there time yes..”.

“Not... there, which there is that big rock...”.

Kharis pointed to a different place.

“Hahaha... remember exactly the place yes..”.

“Iya... it was the first time I kissed..”.

Kharis said slowly. Kharis's face gave off a tinge of red, his body having leaned comfortably in the arms of the husband. It turns out that Kharis remembered the moment, so Levi wanted to repeat the kiss at that time, holding next to Kharis' cheeks held back gently and began to smear the lips of the ever-inviting wife and would never tire of touching the friendly.

“Pi... already yes... not good ahk... in the open like this...”.

Husband does not care and returns to do the same with a longer duration. The calm sea, the wind that hit lightly on the skin and the weather that is no longer hot like supporting Levi create beauty for both of them before the afternoon on this beach. Truly a romantic place for couples to express affection to each other.

“I always love you, I want to be a better husband for you..”.

Levi and Charis looked at each other, a strong love that united them for up to five years of their marriage. There are many things that have been passed, but so far they try to stay in love with each other.

There are times when life is fine, months lived as husband and wife in good relationships, but there are also times that are colored by each other's silence without greeting or even bickering each other throwing a lot of arguments and reasons...

So far, they are trying to keep in love.
