Seeing the change in Rachel's face, Farhan realized that he had said a little loudly. The man hugged Rachel.
"I'm sorry, it's not like I won't let you in to clean this room. But in a lot of my work files. Later afraid you put it wrong," said Farhan back in a soft voice.
Rachel simply nodded her head in agreement with the husband's words. Hugging his wife's waist, Farhan invited her back into the room. They again tried to close their eyes to return to dreamland.
After the dawn prayer, Rachel went straight to the kitchen to make breakfast. Her husband was back in his office.
After breakfast, Rachel walked to her husband's office. He wanted to call Farhan to breakfast.
Rachel knocked on the door of the room quietly and called her husband. Three new knocks sound valid.
"What's up, Rachel?" asked Farhan with a smile.
"Breakfast is ready."
"You go first, I want to clear the work files first" said Farhan.
"Don't be long, Mum. Breakfast's gonna be cold."
"It won't be long."
Rachel walks towards the kitchen, while Farhan re-enters her study. On his desk was a picture of a couple. Photos of when Farhan and Andin were dating.
"How are you, Andin? Ever since you decided to marry him and follow your husband, you know I've been here to miss you. I want to forget everything like you have forgotten me, but the more I try to forget you, the more your shadow continues to follow in my footsteps" Farhan said.
Farhan was very different from his two sisters. If they go to school in pesantren, different from him who is in public school. He threatened not to go to school if he was in the pesantren.
He also studied business, not religion. However, he still wanted to study religion with his father. He keeps memorizing the Qur'an and even he is good at preaching. It was all because of his cleverness that easily understood all that was learned.
Farhan's hard nature is obtained from his father. When young or single, Ustadz Hakim once plunged into the world of black and drug users. Until he overdosed and was treated. After recovering, Farhan's father entered the pesantren and became a preacher.
Farhan came out of the room and kissed Rachel on the cheek as she watched her pensive wife wait for her presence. She smiled when she saw her husband.
"After breakfast, we leave. The driver is on his way. I deliberately invited the driver so that you and I could be more comfortable on the road" said Farhan.
Half an hour later they had breakfast and Rachel changed her clothes, and so did Farhan. They went straight to the ground floor where the car was parked.
Eight hours the journey they will take to Farhan's hometown. Two hours into the trip, Rachel began to feel drowsiness. She then leaned on her husband's shoulder.
Five hours drive, they rest for lunch and dzuhur prayer. After that, the journey continues.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, he finally arrived at his hometown. Farhan woke his wife up gently.
"Rachel, wakeup! We have arrived" said Farhan, shaking his wife's body slowly.
Rachel opened her eyes. She looked at her husband's face.
"We have arrived. Awake up!"
"Have arrived?" rachel asked in shock. He then changed his seat and repaired the slightly tangled clothes as he fell asleep.
Farhan opens the door for Rachel. Walking hand-in-hand toward the main door of the man's house.
Farhan house is quite large and luxurious if the size in the village. The yard of the house that is planted with lots of flowers adds to the asrian of the house.
Farhan said his greetings, and a middle-aged woman opened the door for him. The woman looked shocked when she saw Farhan coming with a very beautiful young woman. Rachel gave her sweet smile.
"Son Farhan, how are you?" ask the woman. Then she hugged him. She's been working at Farhan's house since she was a baby. Farhan did not consider her as a maid only, but a family.
"Dad and mom are there, Bi?" ask Farhan.
"There's inside. I was watching, "Aunty seemed happy. One year his master's son did not return to the village. Usually in two months you will go home.
Farhan came in and Rachel followed. A smile was always engraved from the lips of the woman. When he arrived at the family room, his father and mother were watching television. Both of them looked shocked by the presence of his son what else behind Farhan was a beautiful woman.
