Handing over the shopping receipt in front of Rizal, while Rizal was staring at his laptop in the tv room.
" What is this?" Rizal asked, taking the white paper in the hands of Citra.
" That ..struk shopping earlier" he answered nervously, bowing his head as if he was afraid if Rizal was angry with so much shopping.
" Ohh!" Said Rizal, frowning put the structure that he had seen how total everything was.
" And here's your atm card." Say Citra put it on the table.
" Why did you give me?" staring at the still standing image with hands squeezing each other. " Sit." His orders, and Citra also began to sit down even though she was a little hesitant.
" Today's shopping is running out a lot."
" Keep going!" Making Citra frown.
" You're not angry."
" Why angry?" Quickly follow.
" Because I spend so much of your money." Sluggishly.
Given in his memory, how his late mother spent the money that his father loved for daily needs and not enough for one month. Until his mother tried to ask for money to buy again, not him in love but instead his mother exposed maki by his father.
The money that his father loves is indeed little and it can only be made to eat, a mother who is more concerned for her child than herself. Mothers who have never bought clothes or makeup tools, look very unkempt as a husband should buy her needs are also fair and spoil her. But her father was different, instead she insulted her mother and said no to please her husband.
" It's okay, that's not much either. You can wear it any way you want, because from now on you are my responsibility." Rizal.
Responsibility, does that mean Rizal accepts her as his wife or just feels pity and return the favor instead he wants to be his wife for this one year.
" Take this! And do as you like!" Said Rizal handing back his atm card to Citra.
Still looking at him hesitantly, looking back at Rizal who nodded and smiled if he was not angry and did not want to be rejected.
" I'll just spend the kitchen!"
" Not the kitchen! Your needs must also be." said Rizal.
" But I don't,-"
" You're entitled to wear it, because you're still my responsibility." Tukas Rizal, made Citra look at him.
Stare at each other for a few seconds until Citra bows her head.
It is still a responsibility, if it has been one year what he will be truly divorced and live in solitude with a new status as a young widow.
Just imagine what it feels like not being able to do anymore reality. smiled forcibly, felt tight in his heart and looked back at the atm in his hands.
" I'll go to the room first." Citra's voice stood up from her seat, leaving Rizal who was staring at her as if she felt wrong to have spoken it.
To be honest that's not what he wanted to say, he was dying to say that he was his wife. But lips said another as if he had not dared to express his heart, if he wanted to start from a new beginning, complement each other and want to be like a real husband and wife.
Feeling out of focus at work, he chose to close the laptop and follow Citra's footsteps to his room.
Actually Citra has not slept, it's just that she does not want to see Rizal at this time. I don't know why he felt hurt and wanted to get angry, but he couldn't do anything about it. Eyes that were already closed, just let out tears. Wet the corner of the eye until it falls on the pillow.
Both turned back, both silent with the mind and mind they wanted to express, so that everything could be clear if they wanted a happy little family.

" You should have gone home, not used to stay here all.!" Gerutu Revan in the morning, at the dinner table who felt bad about Dika.
Yes, Dika chose to stay overnight at Dhira's house last night. Not sleepy but just want him to prank Revan who is always spoiled and pretentious romantic in front of him who is single does not have a spark, to make himself envious.
Just smile back, raise eyebrows and continue eating again. Cuek and rancid ignored Revan who was looking at him annoyed.
How not to be upset because Alex asked to sleep with him last night, and it was all because Dika told Alex. Very upset, where he was, eya warming up with Dhira. The bedroom door was knocked hard from the front to make a couple surprised and distanced each other.
Who else if not Alex, asked to sleep in Dhira's room. Who wanted to be rejected, but could not because Alex had started to whine and sneak into the room.
" Dear, holiday tickets to Bali for Dika cancel. And replace it with another." Revan said, making Dika choke on food.
" Yes can't donk mas!!" Excited Dika, after drinking water with a toilet.
" Yes, I'm your boss's husband!" Little Revan held back a smile, looking at Dika who was beginning to sulk.
" Dhir if you cancel my holiday to Bali, I'll go on strike." Threatening Dika, slightly glaring at Dhira who was engrossed in eating.
" Fired you dear, let me find a new replacement to replace Dika." Glaring eyes looked at Revan who was smiling towards him.
" I'm going down to his post, and I'm cutting his pay this month." Dhira.
" That's right, baby!!" the more tempting Dika who began to weld.
" You are the Dhir! just cut the salary of the important gakpapa do not go down the department first, my savings have not collected this for capital!!" Melas Dika, making the husband and wife look at each other and laugh together.
Feeling anxious and annoyed will Dika last night and feel sorry when he saw the face of Dika who was compassionate.
" What business do you want to open?" Ask Revan.
" Want a gold shop!" Lirih Dika's.
" You don't want to work with me anymore, Dik.?" Dhira.
" I want to be like you, have a business that is pioneered from scratch and can boast of parents and myself." Dika replied, making Dhira smile because she became an example for Dika to want to be a successful person and not always work for others.
" Then open the workshop now, just use my money first?" Speak Dhira with passion.
" It's not that I refuse your help Dhir! But I don't want to trouble my friend. At least let me get started on my own, and I just need your spirit." Answer Dika with a smile.
" And if I really need you, I'll ask you to please. Said again.
" We will always be supportive and will always help you if you need something." Revan.
" Thank you, man?" Dika replied, Citra and Revan also smiled and nodded.
