Surviving in Marriage

UMI'S ADVICE

Arsyila was home all day. Alone with no one to accompany him in this huge house. Arsyila was lonely. All the beautiful things that were on his mind after marriage seemed to disappear. She hopes to find new happiness with her husband. Happiness in the frame of the household which is idolized by Allah SWT.

But again, it was all in his imagination. Arshila thought in her heart. Is it still lacking what he does in improving himself into a better person? Didn't God promise good women a good man? Is he less good so that his soul mate that he got is not as expected. Far from the criteria and what he coveted long ago. So, Is it useless she tried all this time to be a good woman but ultimately she even married a bad man?

"Astaghfirullah's.." Asryila has been involved many times. Negative thoughts that out of nowhere even dominate his mind. He should not have such a mind. As a Muslim woman who always participated in the study, Arsyila should be able to reap the wisdom of all this. It is a test from God to test his patience. Well.. Arsyila convinced herself. He must be strong and survive in his marriage with Raihan. Only prayer can be done at this time. Arsilah was convinced by the power of prayer. Hopefully Raihan changes, as he expected. Arshila's prayer in her heart.

That afternoon Arsyila was sitting in the living room watching TV. Actually there is nothing interesting that he can watch but still turn on the TV to break the silence of this big house.

"Assalamu'laikum, Arshila.." Suddenly a gentle greeting was heard by him from the direction of the living room. It turned out that Umi Lika who came and entered the house while carrying a lot of tentengan. It looks like her in-laws are out shopping. Seeing that Zalika was having a bit of trouble carrying her groceries, Arsyila immediately stood up and approached her in-laws to help carry her goods with her earlier she answered the greetings from Zalika.

"Goddessalam, Umi.." Answer Arsyila.

"Where's the noodle? A lot of shopping?" Ask Arsyila.

"Yes, Arsyila.. Umi of supermaket. It's all the groceries for the house for a month..." Answer Zalika.

"Oh yeah, you're alone? Which raihan? Raina too?" Zalika asked after putting all her groceries on the kitchen counter.

"Not yet to return home.." Arsyila replied with a smile.

"Not home yet? It was late afternoon and I had not come home. Have you contacted Raihan yet Arsyila?"

"Ee. not yet umi.." Arsilla answered nervously.

"Kok hasn't?"

"Hmmm.. Arsyila doesn't know Bang Raihan's phone number, Umi.." Answer Arsyila flat.

Zalika was stunned for a few seconds, after which walked up to Arsyila who was already sitting at the dining table. Zalika gently touched Arsyila's shoulder and looked at her with a look of affection.

"You're not doing well, are you, Arsyila?" He asked what Arsyila had in mind. Arsyila could only bow without answering questions from her in-laws.

"You are patient. Umi can see from the light of your eyes that your heart is currently injured. And, It must be because of Raihan, right..?" Zalika.

"Honest.. Umi also can not help much to overcome your problems with Raihan. Whatever is the problem that is happening between the two of you, Umi just hope that Arsyila do not leave Raihan yes.. Umi understands how Raihan's nature is so hard and also too indifferent. And Umi also know how the nature of Arsyila is gentle and caring for others. So, Umi hopes that one day Arsyila's beauty can be a bridge for Raihan to turn into a good husband. As we all expected. Therefore, Umi and her father Raihan match Raihan with you Arshila. because we believe, a Muslim woman whose heart is always attached to His Lord will be a strong fortress to change someone. We're sure it's all Arsyila..You keep the spirit yes, the patient and the strong.." Zalika is long.

Arsyila was stunned astray after hearing the words of her in-laws that were so touching.

"Yes, Thank you for your support and advice. Hopefully Arsyila is always given the strength and the opportunity to also be a good wife for Raihan bang.. " Say Arsyila with a big smile.

After Arsyila said the last sentence, Umi Zalika said nothing more. He just smiled as he gently stroked Arsyila's head. Getting such treatment makes Arsyila feel relieved because at least there is a good woman who cares so much about her in this house.

Although there was also a big question mark on the explanation of Zalika earlier.

Arsyila was able to draw the conclusion that both of her parents-in-law had actually known the hard character of her son, and to change the hardness of her heart Raihan they used Arshila as a spear to make Raihan change. Really so??But, like something's awkward for Arsyila. Raihan is said to be hard but..why can be a melt when his parents betrothed him to Arsyila? Why didn't he refuse at the time? Why on their wedding day, Raihan even behaved sweetly in front of everyone including himself.

At least Arsyila did not see the compulsion in the look on her face. I don't know.. This is still a mystery to Arsilla. Only Raihan can answer all these questions. But, until this moment Raihan has not given any explanation to Arsyila. Arsyil was afraid to face her husband.

When night fell, Arsyila who was already in her room and ready to sleep, was suddenly startled by the sound of her bedroom door being opened from outside. The sound of a man caught by his ears.

"Hallo, Honey... "

Degs...

Arsyila was shocked when she heard Raihan's voice sounding so sweet saying the word dear. His heart seemed to tremble because it was so happy to hear Raihan's greeting. Because beyond Arsyila's expectations, Raihan can change this fast. Then Arsyila turned her back to the entrance. A sweet smile was on her face to welcome the greeting from her husband.

However, Arsyila's sweet smile disappeared when she found her husband talking to someone on the phone. The word love just now wasn't for her.

"Yes, this just got home.. What are you doing, baby??" Raihan said again that is able to make the heart and feelings of Arsyila sliced.

"okay, sweetheart.. I'll see you tomorrow. I Love You, Mmuaachh.." Raihan said he ended a conversation with the person that Arsyila believes must be with a woman. But, who? What is the woman's relationship with Raihan?

Arsyila was sitting limp on her bed, while Raihan without guilt even passed in front of Arsyila and entered the bathroom. Arsyila looked at her husband's back with a painful heart and tears that had been flowing down her cheeks..

Seriate..
