Statements

...~Happy Reading~...

In the afternoon, as Joseph had promised. Eleena is now invited to move into a new home. Not so far from the cottage, but not so close as well.

If the cottage is in a village that is still so beautiful and surrounded by rice fields.

A minimalist house that has two floors and two rooms inside its. The yard is quite spacious, and decorated by a variety of flowers and green trees, making the house look so fresh as in the cottage.

“How?” joseph asked who arrived immediately hugged Eleena from behind to make the girl slightly jerked at him.

“A—what is it?” eleena said back to ask in a slightly trembling voice from nervousness.

“Home her? Do you like her?” obviously Joseph who did not get an answer directly from Eleena, “I still do not get workers, so gapapa yes we both first.”

“Y—ya gapapa anyway, indeed why? The house is also not too big, and I can if only to clean clean clean,” said Eleena although a little doubt.

“Are you sure?” joseph asked, frowning his forehead.

If Eleena herself feels doubtful about her performance, especially Joseph who does know how his beloved wife lunge.

“A—I will learn later,” replied Eleena quickly, “Please let go first,”

“Sora .. “ call Yusuf so slowly but able to make Eleena's body stiffen and bristled.

“Maybe I am not a romantic man, not your dream man, and not a perfect man. But, now that I've become your husband, you've become my wife. Can we continue like this?”

“M—his point? S—like this how?”

“I know, you want to accept this marriage because of a compulsion, but I don't. I never felt compelled to marry you. And I want to continue to maintain this household until the end, until the moment God separates us from a different world,”, Joseph said at length.

“Sorry, if our marriage should happen this way. But I will try to take this marriage to where it should be. God willing I will try to make you happy. Sorry, if maybe my word something is wrong or maybe not right, but in essence it will be like that,” Yusuf added a little embarrassed.

Unknowingly, Eleena's lips lifted an arch of smile when she saw her husband's face that looked embarrassed because he had expressed his feelings. Isn't that a feeling? Inner Eleena.

“There's something I want to ask,” said Eleena took a pretty long breath.

“Say, God willing I am ready to answer her,” Yusuf again reached out his hand to rub Eleena's smooth face so gently.

“Do you love me?” ask Eleena.

Not answering, Joseph actually smiled when he heard the question from Eleena, “why even a smile. I asked, he said you were ready to answer, but why smile so, ckckck!” cetus Eleena clucked.

“According to you how?” Eleena immediately rolled her eyes lazily when Joseph did not answer her question, but instead asked back.

“How do I know, since long ago you always ignored me. Even just looking at me, you don't want to. Every time I ask, you always duck as if the ground and floor were prettier than me.” Eleena said with a little bit of a frown to make Joseph very want to laugh because of her.

“Don't laugh ih!” annoyed Eleena was singing her lips even more annoyed.

“Uhibuk min allah zawjati.”

Deg, deg, deg!

Eleena straightened her head. He felt like there was something different on his chest when he heard Joseph's statement. One simple sentence, but able to make his heart beat much more extra than usual.
