One week since Elijah expressed his intention to return to Indonesia, Reyhan has not given a decision, every Elijah discussed it, Reyhan always avoids. Until tonight, the two were sleeping watching tivi together.
" Sister, tell me the obvious reason, why don't you go back to Indo ? You didn't like living in Germany before, " said Elijah
Reyhan stroked Elijah's hair, because now Elijah was clad in Reyhan's arms, and Rehan was sitting on the couch.
" Who says I don't like it in Germany, I like it. My teenage years, I spent here in education" Reyhan said
" Uself used to be a sister.... "
" Then and now Elijah's different, I didn't love you, but now we love each other. We can be happier living here. I even got a license to open a beauty clinic for you here. Elijah I don't want our past to interfere with our future. We can live happier here. We can have children, take care of them, our lives are assured. What else do you think of Elijah ? " reyhan said with an occasional kiss on his wife's cheek.
" Sister, your parents want us to go home. "sadly Elijah, there's no way he's telling Aldo it's the forcing. Because Elijah is confident even though Reyhan already loves him, but the heartache of his brother is still impassive.
" They used to want us here. So if they miss us, let them be here. We are not little Elijah's children, who must have everything arranged by parents. We'll even be parents soon" Reyhan said
Elijah just smiled bitterly, actually Elijah was also afraid why at the age of marriage that had been two years more they had not been gifted offspring. Although they had been together for almost six months, for Elijah it should have been too long. Elijah looked at Reyhan, knowing that her husband was hoping to have her child.
" Elia... I'm afraid that a past of ours will overshadow our lives. I'm happier now. It's just you and me, with no shadow of our own past" Reyhan said in a soft tone
" But my brother, I think it's just an opinion of a coward. If we really love each other, no matter how big the shadow in the past, it will only be a shadow, if we avoid it, what is not cowardly its name. Our future is in the environment of people who love us, it will certainly be much happy" said Elijah sitting facing Reyhan.
" Are you less happy with me? " ask Reyhan
" I know you really want to be with Aldo, don't take my parents to be your shield, Elijah" Reyhan said
" It's not like that, I've never made your parents a shield, if you accuse me like that, I'll have mom and grandma talk to you directly, you know, when they always cornered me, they brought you back home, " said Elijah won't lose
" Elia, our household is happy here. What more do you expect in Indonesia? In reality here or there, we are the same. Or don't don't you want to go back to your former bastard fiancee ? " said Reyhan started to get emotional
Elijah was silent, he did not expect if Reyhan was already sure not to return to Indonesia, all estimates if Reyhan would approve his request to return to Indonesia, it turned out to be a mistake. Reyhan is right to only attach importance to his current relationship. Actually Elijah was happy with Reyhan's decision, especially he did not think that Reyhan had sought pratik permission for himself, without being asked. But Elijah also thought, is not this only done for a coward, because he did not dare to fight the past, and instead avoid.
" all right. If indeed the decision to return to Indonesia is a happy thing for you, we will go home ! " said Reyhan relented. Although it looks like Reyhan said that with a heavy tone.
Elijah looked at Reyhan on the cheeks of her husband who was looking at him. Elijah is shocked, because Reyhan can lower his ego and agree to his wife's request.
" Thank you, brother. I love you. " said Elijah smiled, so happy Elijah slowly kissed Reyhan's lips, both dissolved in a warm kiss, until something happened that should happen in the husband and wife. Elijah gives touch and pleasure to the love Reyhan gives. Both of them did not pay any more attention to whether this was on the guest sofa or on the bed, because for them it was the same, as long as it was with their partner
" I Love You" said Elijah after the two finished exercising together
" I'm more" replied Reyhan.
Reyhan carried Elijah into the bathroom, and took a bath together. Seen laughter and jokes from both, Elijah's behavior that is good at teasing Reyhan is able to make Reyhan laugh happily, as if forgetting all the burdens he carries.
Reyhan helped Elijah dry his hair. Elijah wears night cream for his skin. Sometimes Elijah teases Reyhan by putting the cream on her husband's face, and Reyhan gets annoyed at him.
" sister... I created a cream for men, I thought it would be suitable for your dry skin" said Elijah after tired of flirting with her husband until Reyhan was irritated.
" I never wear cream or anything like that. Just the facial wash I need. Unlike you, look what is this Serum ? Day cream ? night cream ? bb cream ? Cleanser ? there are so many lipsticks that you collect. You're even prettier without makeup" said Reyhan after spelling out one cream at a time, from some on Elijah's dresser.
Elijah just smiled at her husband, who did not understand the needs of women.
" You know, brother, I wasn't as pretty now. And the fact is you're ignoring me ! Now I'm beautiful because of my hard work. I can create cream for women, with a normal face type like myself" Elijah said
" That's because you didn't know my true feelings for you then Elijah. Then or now the feeling has existed since that incident, not because of the change in your beautiful face then and now. Because to me, you are still the same, always beautiful in my eyes." Reyhan's mind answered the words of his wife who had not dared to speak the truth now.
" Sister, when will we return home" asked Elijah who saw Reyhan pensively staring at him.
" The day after tomorrow we can go home, because tomorrow I still have to take care of the work left behind. And then I would go on a business trip once a month, to check the data" said Reyhan stroking Elijah's straight hair
