What a Sweet Man



Bayu approached me and made sure that I was okay. He held both my cheeks, raised my bowed face, then touched my forehead and immediately moved to touch his own forehead.


"The temperature is normal." muttered sister Bayu still looking at me confused. "Tiara, are you sick?" she was so worried when she saw my face.


"No Bayu, Tiara is just tired. After the break also recovered by itself."


"Relatedly? Don't you want to go to the doctor?"


"No need brother, I'll just sleep."


"Let me help!" said brother Bayu took me a basket and helped him sit back.


"Thank you, brother."


"No need to be confused. I'm your husband, not someone else, Ra. Get some sleep, I'll make you some ginger tea!" the word Bayu made me smile, whether it was a happy smile or a wry smile.


"No need for Bayu! I feel a little better now. It's night, just sleep!" my door.


"alright. We're resting now!" said brother Bayu lying next to me, then asked me to sleep with his arm.


"Don't get rid of your arm or your brother's hand will get cramped!" my words give warning.


"Let. Come on, get some sleep! Where's the sick one?" the question kept me quiet for a long time waiting for my answer.


"Sister, I'm fine."


"If you're okay, your face won't be like this. And, look at your body to the point of suffocation, even your voice is barely heard in my ear. Tell me where the sick are or I'll call you right now" Bayu said a little threateningly.


"Sir Bayu don't! They must be asleep, I don't want to disturb anyone. Now sister Bayu better sleep! And let me sleep too."


"Ok." replied Brother Bayu began to close his eyes.


I continued to move tilting my body back and forth looking for a position that I felt comfortable, I tried to close my eyes sabil pressed my stomach and moved back to Bayu's sister who slept facing my body.


"Is this sick?" said Bayu holding my hand that was above my stomach that hurt, making me shocked and immediately twisted my body to be able to look at him.

In the middle of the night, I woke up when I felt like my stomach was hurting, like being stabbed by a few needles. I opened my eyes and put away the heavy hand that coiled my stomach. I tried to get down to get some warm water.


"Where are you going?" ask Bayu who woke up.


"I'll just go down for a while to get some warm water. Sis Bayu sleep back!"


"Back lay down! Let me take it!"


"Yes" I replied resignedly and went back to lying down, I squeezed my stomach that felt increasingly painful.


"What's wrong with my stomach? Why does it hurt so much? I'm not having diarrhea or food poisoning, but it's really hurting me. Is it not-don't I . . .?" without thinking for a long time I immediately entered the toilet.


"What should I do now? I can't . . .."


"Sir Bayu?" I said I looked down and followed him closer to the bed.


"Hhm." she answered.


"Sister!"


"Yes. What's up, Ra? "


"Sir, can Tiara ask for help?"


"Yes. Ask for help what? Just say! Don't confuse me, Ra. What do you want?"


"Sir Bayu, Tiara turns out again to come the moon and forgets . . .."


"Yes, let me buy it!"


"Seriously Bayu? Want to buy that for me?"


"Not talk much! Take a break and don't forget to drink the warm water!" he said he swept the car keys that were on the nightstand and passed out of the room.


'What a sweet man.' I said. My lips also smiled a little.

Bayu is seen entering the car and driving his car towards Indomart. Through the darkness of a lonely night. Once there he parked the car and got out. Considering it's already midnight so the store is not too crowded anymore.


"Arghhhhh, I forgot to ask what brand he used to wear?" said Bayu while rubbing his face rough. "I'll call him. No, I don't have a cell phone anymore!" bayu said she was aware of her stupidity. "Let's. Let it be Tiara who will choose it himself later." grumbled Bayu began to take several brands of pads and bring it to the cashier.


"Sir Bayu?" said someone made Bayu surprised.


"A-. . .?"


"I'm Arlin sir, OG in Bayu sir's office."


"Owh yes. You work here too? And enter the night shif?" asked Bayu after remembering Arlin, who apparently often delivered drinks for him while at the office.


"Yes sir. Part time, to meet my needs. You bought all this? Not wrong?" he said he didn't believe. Bayu.


"Yes, for my wife, just I don't know the brand she used to wear so I bought all kinds of brands."


"Why don't you ask your wife first?" he said while pinning groceries on his computer and put them in a shopping bag afterwards.


"Forgot, don't bring a cell phone either. How muchisit?"


"One hundred and fifty thousand, sir."


"Here, thank you" I said, handing out a few pieces of banknotes and picking up a shopping bag at the cashier's desk and passing it in the car.


"What a sweet man, besides a handsome-faced boss, it also has a loving heart" Arlin said staring at the departure of the man who was his boss. "Unexpectedly, it turns out that Mr. Bayu who is so cynical and haughty when in the office, can be soft and sweet like that. Dear God, leave one man like me." do'a Arlin at the end of the sentence and hope God will grant it.
