Not the Dust Granules

Marrying.

Irene was finished in makeup with a white kebaya complete with a veil and accessories. In the hotel hall, all the families as well as the elders and witnesses were waiting for him. Alex is going to say hijab qabul marriage to her and Irene.

Laura and Vera took Irene into the hall. All the invited guests stared at her beauty. No exception Doni, who had looked agitated in his chair. Alex himself looked in amazement at his future wife. His face is so charming. It's not wrong that he chose Irene to be his best friend.

After all seated, the pengulu started the event. Alex said the ijab qabul with a single breath. Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief. Alex and Irene become a married couple.Alex smiles at Irene. She is finally her husband now.

The event continued with a simple dinner as a form of togetherness of the two families. They each occupy a table that has been provided by the hotel. While Alex and Irene's table was in front, separated from the others.

"Are you happy now??".

"No, it's just that I'm relieved that they can't insult me anymore right now".

"Then what can I do to make you happy?".

"Nothing, don't do anything right now".

"This is enough".

"Alex, I don't want this food, my stomach is nauseous".

"I'm going to the toilet for a second".

"I'll take you ".

Irene walked in haste, followed by an anxious-faced Alex. He followed Irene into the toilet. Cold sweat splashed on Irene's forehead. In the sink, he took out all his lunch. Alex massaged his nape carefully. He was very sorry to see Irene.

"Please, get out of here.let me alone".

"No Irene, you're my wife now, let me take care of you".

"Come here, let me clean up".

"Go, I'm ashamed you saw me like this".

Alex doesn't care what Irene says. He was busy making the woman comfortable, even though Alex knew for sure she wasn't okay. He rubbed the dripping sweat on Irene's forehead. He also took out his perfume to breathe Irene to make it more comfortable.

Sure enough, the scent of perfume that Alex wore, immediately raised his mood. He felt much better and fresh. They came out of the bathroom together. Doni was waiting in front of the toilet.

"Why Irene??".

"He's just nauseous, probably because of his guts".

"You come back, I can handle it".

"You sure Irene's okay?".

"Yes Doni, I'm fine".

Doni stepped back into the hall room. Alex took Irene back to the table, when Irene suddenly stopped.

"Alex, I don't want to go back to the party".

"My head is so dizzy".

"May I just take a break now??".

"Sure, come on. I'll take you to the room".

Alex takes Irene to the hotel room where they both stay. He laid her on the bed. After that she calls Vera and her mom to explain Irene's condition. They worry for a moment, but Alex assures them they are okay.

The show was then continued by Vera.

In her room, Irene was restless and could not sleep. All positions are not good at feeling it.

His stomach ached and cramped. He even returned with cold sweat.

The worried Alex immediately approached Irene. She was about to call the doctor, but Irene prevented it. She did not want any more commotion in her room.

"Whatever it is, but this hurts Alex a lot".

"All right, wait a minute".

Alex is approaching Irene. She then touched her stomach and rubbed gently.Alex spoke to the baby in Irene's womb.

"Darling, it's papa, you don't be naughty, son".

"Mama's love is so sick".

"You take it easy baby, papa and mama will always love you".

"Sleep baby.papa loves you".

Slowly the pain in Irene's stomach disappeared. Even the gentle rubbing on her stomach made Irene so comfortable. She finally fell asleep by subconsciously hugging Alex's arm.

Alex looked at Irene's face. He kissed her forehead gently and rubbed her head.

When she wanted to stand up, her arms were held back by Irene's arms. Not wanting to build it, Alex falls asleep next to Irene.

In the hotel hall, the party is over. Everyone has returned. Doni is still in the hotel bar. It seems he was almost drunk. Her thoughts were only with Irene. Until Vera took him up to her hotel room because he was no longer strong enough to walk.

At midnight, Irene woke up. His stomach is starving to fill. She was surprised to find Alex sleeping next to her with her arms hugged by her. This time, Irene was not angry at all. He just sulked at her.

"Alex...wake up,,, wake up.....!!".

"Why Irene, why are you in pain again".

"I'm hungry Alex, is there any food you can eat??".

"What do you want to eat, let me order for you".

"Anything, because you bought it yourself".

"Is it supposed to be like that??".

"It's late Irene's night".

"Alright, if you don't want to be okay either".

"I want to, wait a minute, I'll put on my jacket".

Alex goes downstairs and heads down the street to find food for Irene.

He walked a little away from the hotel and found only meatballs. Alex bought two packs for her and Irene. Arriving at the hotel, he then prepared her to be eaten immediately by Irene.

"Let's wake up, I can only get this".

"Hmmm..it doesn't look bad".

"We eat together?".

Irene tasted the meatball sauce and ate only one. After that, he left the rest to eat all of Alex. Irene did not become hungry, for some reason suddenly her stomach became full for a moment.

Under normal circumstances, Alex must be angry at a play like this. But facing Irene, she seemed helpless. He could only obey his wife. Moreover, he was currently cravings. So Alex must be extra patient in obeying his will.

Alex hadn't finished eating, but Irene was back asleep in bed. Just looking at it like this makes Alex very happy. Finally he can be the husband of the woman he loves, although it must be started with a bad thing.

Alex tidied up his dinnerware and immediately picked up his cell phone. He secretly photographed Irene while she was sleeping.

I don't know when she started falling in love with this woman. To be sure, what he had obtained, it was impossible for him to let go even if it was for Doni.

Alex fell asleep on the couch looking at his wife's face. He looks very happy. Until the next morning, the nauseous drama came again breaking the silence of the morning in their hotel room.
