The clock was already showing at half-five in the afternoon when Vishnu decided to go home. Try as much as possible to get home before the Maghrib reverberate.
He looked at the sky which is now starting to turn dark, it seems like the rain will soon come down to greet the inhabitants of the earth and cool the hot sultry due to daily activities.
Vishnu yawned several times, tiredness and drowsiness due to lack of sleep last night honestly made him disturbed.
“Hopefully succeed, sir,” said Ihsan in a teasing voice, his hand giving a respectful greeting with two fingers touching the forehead.
“Ck!” Vishnu turned his head while clucking, he shook his head to see the behavior of Ihsan is funny, especially when with a stylish step, Assisten whose age is as good as he was rubbing his hair in his car spione.
“Propay yes, Dear. Garage for you I am preparing,” said Ihsan while wiping the front body of Vishnu's car again.
“Truly already critical of his soul,” murmured Vishnu responded to Ihsan's behavior in teasing him. “There is no way the ketus want to seduce me, basic Assistant halu.”
Ihsan ignored the sneers of her boss. He immediately walked away to his own car parked in the corner after giving each other a look of confidence winning bets, staring at the car owned by his boss the more he said a lot of do'a.
Unlike the thoughts of Ihsan who was excited all day, his mind was still struggling on his relationship with Almira.
“Ira seduces me? Ahh ... there is no way, if yes I will be happy,” murmured Vishnu while running his car leaving the Hotel.
Vishnu drove his vehicle at moderate speed, occasionally staring to his left right side looking at the street vendors five feet were preparing his lap. With a smile he recalled the information he had received from Ihsan about Almira.
“Women named Almira it's very simple, sir. It does not seem to come from the children of the rich. Every payday surely he will buy a Special Egg Martabak located in front of the Minimarket where he works,” explained Ihsan at the time.
With a smile, Vishnu immediately turned on the turnlight and crossed, taking his car to the street where he sold his favorite Martabak.
It only took a few minutes now he had managed to park his vehicle in front of the Minimarket where Almira used to work. The feeling was a little uncomfortable looking at former colleagues Almira from outside the translucent glass wall, seeming they were busy working with some of the oddness seen among the jokes created. They look very familiar.
“What if you work like them too, your days are full of laughter? After marrying me you feel lonely when you are home alone?” inner Vishnu still pensively staring at the interaction of the Minimarket guard while walking closer to Martabak seller.
“Which message, sir,” asked the seller while smiling at Vishnu.
“Martabak Telor Special, Bang, one yes,” replied Vishnu immediately turned to the seller, the first time buying Martabak itself made him confused by the terms listed on the menu board.
“Good, Sir. Please sit first while waiting,” said the seller shows where to wait for his customers.
“It's okay, I want to see you make the Martabaknya. I just wait here,” seloroh Wisnu immediately given a nod to the smile of the seller's brother.
Vishnu stared at the speed and prowess of the seller's brother in processing the dough. Vishnu looked amazed to see that thin flour dough could turn into square-shaped food like orders belonging to other ready-made customers.
"Did you sell here for a long time?" vishnu asked trying to interact with the seller, something he had never done all this time.
“Already, Sir. Three years more I sell here,” replied Abang while occasionally glancing at Vishnu.
“Abang is familiar with all employees who work at the Minimarket?" point Vishnu pointed to the Minimarket that was behind him.
“Oh, know, sir. They often buy my sales Martabak as well, Sir,” replied the salesman's brother while looking at the Minimarket behind him.
“Know one of the employees named Almira?” ask Vishnu again, no matter what he thinks, all about his wife like very tickling his heart.
“Oh, who is commonly called Ira? Know me, know me well. As well as his girlfriend I know, he often waits for Neng Ira to come home from work while chatting with me here. But he is now no longer working here,” replied the brother while doing his job.
Vishnu again had to sigh, jealousy in his heart as if calling for bitterness.
Why am I angry? Though it was clearly good to know Ira first.
“Isn't Ira married, huh, Bang?” sahut Vishnu tried to tell, but was confused how to do it.
“oya? Get him out of here without saying goodbye, apparently already married to? So my heartbreak,” kelakar Abang seller while laughing to make Vishnu upset.
“Abang likes Ira too?” satirize Vishnu with a voice resisting vexation.
“Ah Father can, I 'm not brave to have a crush, sir. She is too beautiful for me,” always Abang seller makes Vishnu shook his head feeling that Brother is ridiculous.
“She is beautiful,” sahut Vishnu immediately given kekehan Abang seller.
“This is Mr.'s order. Oya, if Ira is married, meningan Mr. move on find another one, sir,” always Abang seller while laughing. His right hand immediately gave Martabak an order to Vishnu.
Vishnu responded with a smile, himself giving the payment money to the brother.
“The return, sir,” said seller Martabak hand over the change.
“Create Brother only, thank you yes, I excuse you.”
“Wah, thank you very much. May the Father be bestowed a smooth sustenance and increasingly dear to the wife and children," replied Abang seller with sparkling eyes.
“Aamiin Bang, hopefully I add dearest wife and quickly immediately given a momongan,” said Vishnu while looking down.
“Aamiin, Sir. May more spirit make the dough,” chirps Abang chuckles slowly, Vishnu wants to turn back to look at him with a smile.
“Adonant?” Vishnu frowned as comforted. The brother only responded with a laugh.
Vishnu left the Minimarket and passed home. Can't wait to see Almira's reaction when she sees herself bringing her favorite Martabak Telor. I really want him to get home. He immediately drove his vehicle faster.

Almira stared uneasily at the wall clock in the kitchen. Looking at his cooking that was starting to cool with a tangled face. His face scowled, sitting on a chair with his body leaning towards the table, folding both hands and his chin sat down on the table. There was a faint sound of the Maghrib Adhan already reverberating.
“I prayed Maghrib first, it seems like Mas Inu was late to go home. Did his General Manager give you a warning letter?” murmured Almira worriedly.
Ihsan's words clearly ring in her memory, her husband is the idol of women. Everything Ihsan said all day made him think.
“What if he's cheating?” his feet while tiptoeing, his body immediately rose from sitting with his eyes twisting like thinking. Unsettled thoughts surrounded him.
“Ah no... no, no way,” her legitimately refuted her dirty thoughts. “Mas Inu the man ...” The glimpses of what happened to him were rolling back, he did not continue his thoughts about the figure of Vishnu, the man was not a good man.
Almira immediately pulled out a chair and passed from there. Heading upstairs to perform the Magrib prayer. He was strengthening his heart, somehow the word 'fatah' always makes his heart broken.
“Yes Allah, give me your instructions, how do I soften my husband's heart from his anger, aamiin yaa robbal 'namin,” Inner Almira finish his prayer.
The creaking sound of the gate opening made Almira shift her mind, rustling back in her heart. There was a sense of longing, a pleasure mixed with trembling as well. He grabbed the face from his body and folded in haste. She did not want to miss welcoming her husband home. Can't melt her husband's anger should be her priority.
Almira down the stairs with agile movements, her eyes are still focused on seeing the figure of Vishnu from inside the house through a thin curtained glass window.
“Nothing but I've been shaking like this,” complained Almira stopped her steps when her feet had reached the last rung.
Almira breathed her heart out when she saw that her husband had opened the door and closed it quietly.
The views of the two of them clashed with each other, glued for a moment until Vishnu decided to walk closer with a flat face. Almira wants to be groggy too.
“Mas came home late,” said Almira was stale, trying to get attention from her husband.
“This is for you,” said Wisnu thrust a plastic containing Martabak to Almira.
Almira immediately grabbed a white plastic containing a distinctive scented curd and still feels warm with a feeling of joy.
“Wah, Martabak Telor,” chirps Almira can not hide the joy in her heart, the look of her eyes sparkles beautifully. Vishnu only smiled at a glance and climbed the stairs, ignoring his wife.
“After shower we eat together huh, Mas?” invite Almira to look at the steps of Vishnu who is getting away.
“You eat alone, I am still lazy,” replied Vishnu in a lethargic voice.
“I've cooked,” said Almira felt disappointed rejected her husband.
“I never told you to cook,” replied Vishnu without turning his head. The steps are getting faster towards the top floor.
Almira bowed sadly, feeling deeply offended and hurt by her husband's words.
He wanted to get out of that house and go back home. Ah but she'd be embarrassed to ask her parents. A mistake will be pointed in his face. Is not it usually him who often does as he pleases.
Almira's eyes suddenly water, her husband still cares about her but disappointed by the word she said still excites anger, she understands it.
“Mas Inu came home late for buying me Martabak at my subscription place, though he was still angry. His attitude is still indifferent, making me go awry.”
Almira looked at Martabak and ate him carefully, the fucking tears for him still dripping down were unable to stop him.
“Ignored it turns out it hurts, it feels like going away,” asphyxiated Almira wiped tears and also snot that suddenly appeared with a tissue. She ate Martabak giving her husband slowly with a troubled mind.
“If for example I ... seduce her, be nice to her, will she stop being angry?” guman Almira was both worried and embarrassed.
Almira sees the figure of her husband walking in neat clothes downstairs immediately making bad thoughts adorn decorating her.
“Where are you, Mas?” tanya Almira ran over to Vishnu.
“Let's go out for a minute, you want what nitip?” vishnu turned his head towards Almira but did not stop his steps.
“Where are you going? It's already night?” tanya Almira was still walking in her husband's footsteps.
“There is a promise to everyone? Why, usually you never nanya,” said Vishnu turned to his wife who passed differently since that night, when he saw his anger.
“Not so, it .. because Mas Inu has not eaten,” replied Almira slowly.
“I can eat outside, I used to snack outside,” replied Vishnu still with an ordinary tone of voice.
Almira let out a sad sigh, why was her husband still acting cold, why was he angry for so long. Usually the handsome guy will always attract his attention, now just stare it seems unwilling.
“I want to apologize about the problem that night, Mas,” said Almira immediately can stop his steps.
“What's that about? You are not wrong, I was late expecting marriage with you to be a happy thing. It turns out I was wrong to force you,” said Vishnu said very lightly and easily.
“Please Mas missed about that night, Almira admitted wrong,” said Almira still trying to hold Vishnu's departure.
“I have forgotten, you do not need to worry,” replied Vishnu while opening the door of the house.
“But it seems like Mas Inu is still angry,” comments Almira on her husband's attitude that turned cold.
“My face is like this, I am haughty, cold and annoying. Didn't you even know my nature long ago?” vishnu shoot back to make Almira like he's wrong to say again.
“We're like we're fighting,” said Almira visibly protesting.
“Indeed when we get along, hasn't it been every day since we got married like this?” vishnu's reply twisted Almira's speech to him. Almira clearly his face became tangled, he was confused to face the words of Vishnu who answered his chatter always menghohok his feelings.
Vishnu again wanted to step when he saw Almira speechless, he would see how far Almira would try to get an apology from him.
“What Mas do not know, if going out of the house when a couple is arguing will cause new problems?” almira held the door and blocked the road.
“I don't know, my knowledge is still very minimal to understand such a thing,” replied Vishnu stopped walking and silently looked at Almira who instead looked down not to reply.
“I do not have the knowledge to be able to guide you, do I not look clearly as a failed priest?” lontar Vishnu with a firm tone.
Almira choked, no longer able to reply to what was thrown. I don't know what is on her husband's mind to even bring such a thing in this debate.
“Mas brings religion?” tanya Almira took off the door and retreated not blocking the road anymore.
“You started,” replied Vishnu firmly.
“I did not give Mas permission to leave,” said Almira was firm as well.
“Why?” vishnu asked carved a thin smile, looking at Almira who also looked at him doubtfully.
“People did not give permission,” said Almira showing a glean on his face.
“Reason? I just came out for a while,” reply Vishnu with challenging style.
“Dangerous exit I said!” sela Almira answered quickly and ketus, uttering an honest word makes Vishnu must hold his laughter deeply.
“I can shoot, play knife I am also proficient. Fighting clearly I am the champion, there is nothing I need to fear when I am outside the house,” replied Vishnu again excited, waiting for the answer what his wife will give him. What a fun debate. Giving answers that provoke debate.
“But I'm not sure you can resist the temptation that her enemy is a beautiful woman,” lontar Almira grunts.
Vishnu was finally unable to hold back the laughter, pushing gently on Almira's shoulders with his piety. “Wahh .. it obviously can not, I always lose against a beautiful woman, honestly it's my weakness,” replied Vishnu tried to stop laughing but the look on Almira's face made him laugh more.
“I guessed it,” said Almira annoyed. “All men like that, rese all,” lamented Almira began to reappear her pouting face. Looking at Vishnu back with a face look difficult to read.
“Remember, your guess is not always right,” Wisnu taunted looking at Almira who was looking at him like immersed in his own mind.
"She must have been insinuating me because of Dhepe's sister's problem. Why discussing the obvious would make him angry, anyway," inner Almira.
“Why? Are you thinking of seducing me?” vishnu imagined what his wife had in mind.
He will complicate and ignore everything Almira does today. For him his luxury car is still too dear if until he exchanged with insincere fighting from his wife.
“Wait. I want to talk seriously with Mas Inu,” prevent Almira again pull the Vishnu shirt back about to step.
Vishnu scrunched his forehead, putting on a face looking to listen to what Almira was going to tell him. The look that made Almira even looked down in confusion.
“What? My friend is waiting. You know I only had an hour to meet him before he left,” said Vishnu breathed face Almira who was strange and long-winded.
Just want to talk about the job problem just catapulted very, making me become angry just upset.
Almira let go of the pull of Vishnu's shirt, acting began to show seriousness but clearly his face seemed to hide shame.
Come, Ira. Instead of an hour with another woman you should recapture your husband's attention.
“Ehm!” deham Ira made Vishnu look upset, several times he looked at his watch and checked his phone.
"Quick say," hiss Vishnu stared impatiently.
“I ... plan to allow you to ask for your rights as my husband tonight,” lontar Almira makes Vishnu immediately turn to his wife with a look of surprise, he swallowed his saliva quickly with a mind that had not fully focused in that direction.
“Hakku?” revisit Vishnu with a face still wondering.
“Iya, right Mas Inu,” replied Almira blushed in embarrassment.
Damn Ihsan, what did he do until Ira actually made an attempt of seduction as that sontoloyo Assisten crossed his mind?
Vishnu looked at Almira with mixed feelings, looking at his wife who now looked down embarrassed, seeing his wife who occasionally stared with a bite on her lower lip in shame.
***
You said the word I always hoped for every night. The night that was usually filled with my loneliness was as if there was a glimmer of hope created.
But, why is this heart not yet feeling full of joy?
There is an empty part that is not yet fully filled in your words, which is an excuse.
What's your reason for doing this? Love or just love? (Vishnu~Almira)
