Picking Up the Past

Always Arguing

Mila stared at Arya's phone screen with a feeling of annoyance, ‘iihh, I haven't answered, it's been turned off by her'.

Mila then put Arya's phone back where it was before by letting out an annoyed breath. He then looked towards Arya and continued his delayed intention earlier, he not only hugged Arya, but also stuck his head on the chest of the Aryan field, a place that he felt so comfortable for his head, which he felt so comfortable for, from there he glanced towards Arya's face, he could hear Arya's regular heartbeat and also he could feel Arya's breath blowing through her face.

‘Arya, don't go away from me again, let's grow our love together, let's build our heavenly palace, and happy the afterlife world in this sacred bond’ inner Mila, let's, she then fell asleep on her husband's chest.

As the afternoon approached on that sunny Sunday, Vanessa had just finished cooking and serving food at the dinner table, she smiled, looking at Mila's favorite red crab, ‘hopefully this can give you the spirit of her inner Mil’, she then walks towards Mila's room to wake Mila up immediately, as they have to eat immediately and get ready for the hospital to visit Tomy.

Vanessa knocked Mila's room 2 times, but there was no answer, then she knocked it again 3 times, still no answer, Vanessa grunted annoyed, ‘pulled one sleep, he said,’ he then opened the door of the unlocked room, his eyes widened in shock to see Mila asleep on the chest of a man and hugging the man.

Vanessa's reddened face restrained her anger, her eyes bulging following the anger of her heart, she could not see Arya's face because Mila's head was stuck on Arya's chest covering Arya's face from Vanessa's view,

“Milaaa” shouted Vanessa, she could not believe her sister-in-law was as cheap as sleeping with a boy, because all she knew was that Arya still disappeared without news.

Mila and Arya woke up to the screams, while Vanessa had started walking towards the bed. “like this is your behavior, your husband is still missing, your husband is still missing, but you instead slept with another man” shouted Vanessa full of emotion, Arya realized, she felt something on her chest, ‘ini who?’ his mind was aware that there was a person's head above his chest and that person was hugging his body.

Mila immediately raised her head, and tidied up her hijab. “kak why scream anyway?” he said he was upset because he was shocked by the screams of Vanessa disrupting his sleep. And again Vanessa turned her head in shock when she saw Arya's face there.

“kamu why here?, right I told you not to enter the room” said Arya glanced sharply at Mila, he was really not happy with the situation, he was, what else Mila to sleep in bed with him and even hugged him.

Mila's face reddened with shame and fear, ashamed that Vanessa and Arya knew what she was doing and afraid that if Arya was angry with her she then lowered her head, “maaf” she replied softly.

Arya grunted, she immediately got up towards the bathroom. He himself was also embarrassed because Vanessa found him asleep with Mila hugging him.

‘astaga, Mila why kayak gini anyway, to sleep hugging me all, brother Vanessa even saw him again’ mumbled annoyed while seeing himself reflected in the mirror of the bathroom Mila.

After Arya went into the bathroom, Mila lifted her head and looked at Vanessa. “kakak why screaming all, said I slept with other men, I am a girl whatan” she said with annoyance, saying I was sleeping with other men, he endured his embarrassment and showed Vanessa his angry face.

While Vanessa looked at her sister-in-law with an indecipherable look, there was a sense of pleasure that Arya had returned and from what she saw, she judged that Arya and Mila's relationship had already begun to improve, there was also a feeling of guilt about what he had just done.

“saf Mil, sister does not know that Arya has returned, sister will be surprised to see you sleep with a brother kayak earlier” said Vanessa defended herself.

Vanessa then followed in Mila's footsteps by grumbling herself, ‘why did I accuse Mila who was not-yet-’ her inner self was upset with herself.

Mila was already sitting in her chair at the dining table, she then sipped a glass of water to calm herself down, she should be ready if Arya would be really angry with her.

“since when did Arya come home Mil?” asked Vanessa who was sitting next to Mila,

“since morning brother, since we finished breakfast earlier” replied Mila.

“are you guys okay?, he's not angry again?, he didn't ask to separate?” vanessa asked worriedly, even though what she saw made her happy, but she had to confirm it straight from Mila.

Mila took a deep breath, she again felt sad, because Arya survived by being forced, Arya was by her side only because she held a secret about Indra in the past.

“that is my sister, which is clear at this time she will not leave me” Mila said lethargicly.

Hearing Mila's reply, Vanessa took a deep breath, ‘it turns out to be true to my guess, it won't be that easy Arya received Mila, she was completely injured by Mila, she went even up to 3 weeks to calm herself down, she said, where maybe he could suddenly accept Mila just like that’.

Arya was finished in the bathroom, she then came out and found Mila's room was empty, she then glanced at the bed, Arya let out a breath of annoyance with what happened. He then exited the room and walked quickly to the dining table, he sat in his usual chair and stared flatly at Mila, while Mila could only bow to Arya feeling guilty.

“I told you not to go into the room” said Arya flat on Mila, he ignored the existence of Vanessa who was also at the dining table.

“sorry, I'm afraid that if you leave, I just want to make sure you won't go again” Mila replied in a guilty tone.

“I told you I won't go, don't you believe me?,"

Mila just fell silent, she did not know what to answer, instead she did not believe in Arya, but her fear was what she could not control.

“once you don't argue with me, what's wrong Mil?” arya asked in a tone that turned irritated.

Mila was still lowered, guilt increasingly enveloping her heart. In fact, he always denied Arya, ‘I really was a sinful wife, I always denied all my husband said.

“what one wife sleeps with her husband and hugs her husband whom she misses” asked Mila slowly to defend herself.
