That Sissy Man is My Husband

That Sissy Man is My Husband
Memories of the past.



It's day 3 but Dika has not yet awakened.


I'm not allowed to go to work while Dika is in the hospital.


The 7th day Dika began to wake up


He began to open his eyes.


He was staring at me.


"Mulan?" call her lirih.


He then held his ailing head post-surgery.


"Yes, Dika, Alhamdulillah" I replied while crying.


Ah thank goodness Dika is not amnesia like the story in the soap opera.


"Where am I?" she asked in a very quiet voice, I almost didn't hear her.


"In the hospital, you had an accident yesterday" I explained.


"Where's my mother?" ask her.


"Your mother just got home, but she'll come back" I replied.


He looked at me confused.


"Makasi ya Mulan, you're a good friend" exclaimed Dika.


A pal?


Wait wait, it's weird.


"Eh, same with Dika" I replied.


I immediately contacted my parents-in-law and my parents told me the news of Dika who was self-conscious.


They're coming soon.


Seeing her mother coming Dika immediately hugged her mother spoiled.


"Alhamdulillah, with a strong mother-in-law, you will recover soon, everything will be fine" said my mother-in-law.


Dika crying. This was the first time I saw Dika crying in her mother's arms like she had never met for a long time.


My mother-in-law also dissolved in tears when she saw her son was dead.


I wiped my tears when I saw that sight.


My father-in-law rubbed my shoulders making me cry even more. I'm afraid Dika why why. I'm afraid of losing him. Thank you God.


After hugging his mother. He looked at me in wonder.


"Why are you crying?" ask her.


I was confused to hear Dika's question.


"You're not going home, Mulan? later in looking for your parents, there is already my mother here anyway" said Dika.


"What do you mean?" ask me confused.


Equally, my in-laws were also confused to hear Dika's statement.


"Makasi yah has become a good friend, willing to take care of me" he explained.


"Friend?" ask me. We looked at each other with my in-laws.


"I should have been the one to look after you here Dika, pity if the parents who are here look after you. They also have to rest a lot" I exclaimed.


"Pity you Mulan, there is still my family" he explained.


"Well, I'm your family too?" answer me.


"family?" ask him confused.


"Well, Dika, I'm your wife" I explained patiently.


"Wife? since when did I get married?" ask him confused.


"Loh, you don't remember son, it's been almost a year since your wedding" my in-laws finally said.


"No, I just graduated from Mak High School, how can I get married?" answer her.


I thought something was wrong in Dika's brain.


We called the doctor for an explanation.


The doctor examined Dika. Then call us to the doctor's office.


"It's Trauma after the accident, Dika lost the latest memory in his life, he had amnesia half. Half of his memories are gone, maybe about 5 to 10 years of recent events he doesn't remember. His memory stopped in the past. That's why he does not remember the events of about 5 years" explained the doctor.


"What the heck doc, if amnesia yes amnesia all of you, not half Napa, make confused ajja" my protest.


"Well, here's the author's will, I can what dong, indeed you've never heard of a case like this?" ask doctor.


"So I once watched a Korean drama. Hahaha" the doctor laughed for a moment.


This is not the time to joke, author whatan, my story is the story in the novel. My grouse. But it is true, too, said the doctor. Follow the ajja her groove.


Hem. Dika could not remember if we were married.


It's fitting that he called me his best friend because at that time we were still friends, even just graduated from school and worked.


"Patience well, help him to recover but do not force his memory, he will have a headache if it is too forced to remember something" explained the doctor.


After hearing the doctor's explanation. I lethargicly returned to the room where Dika was in the care. When you remember not treating me as his wife, what else would a half amnesia be like this?


My in-laws strengthen me. After visiting my in-laws for a long time, I went home.


"Why do you leave me with you, and why do you always take care of me" asked Dika.


"Because I'm your wife, how many times do I have to say it" I replied listlessly.


I then took the initiative to get my phone out, I scrolled the gallery and showed photos and videos of our first wedding.


"Your phone is really cool, the screen is big" said Dika.


"But how can we get married?" ask her.


I just kept quiet. I was too tired to answer all of his questions.


I started to get sleepy and started to fall asleep next to her. Dika looks confused to see the year on my mobile calendar.


"God!!! is this still 2011, so it's 2021? you change the year" cried Dika.


I who was almost asleep woke up shocked to hear Dika scream.


"It's 2021 baby" I replied annoyed.


"No way!!!" pekik Dika's.


I started not caring about Dika. I was too sleepy to hear all those questions.


I fell asleep again.


When he looked at me, he had trouble using the phone. He is used to old phones like Nokia and blackberry.


Tired of unanswered questions, she fell asleep.


The next day Reni came to see Dika.


Reni Dika's first love to a woman, Reni was also Dika's best friend when she was in school, Dika explained.


"Reni, you are too late to come anyway" said Dika spoiled.


"I'm sorry, I'm busy, I promise I'll be here often" she replied.


"Oh yes, you are busy preparing for your lecture" replied Dika.


Reni looked at me in wonder.


"My lecture is over, I take care of business now" Reni explained.


I took Reni out to explain the real situation.


Reni smiled happily hearing her.


Reni went in again and they spoiled like when they were close.


"Ren, don't take advantage of the situation, I warn you, Dika is married" I said.


"Let us reminisce" Reni replied.


"He doesn't even remember being married, haha so sorry for you" Reni exclaimed with a cynical smile at me.


"Dear, she's not who you are" Reni told Dika.


"She's just my best friend, I don't know why she said we're married, it's all so weird" Dika replied.


Dika automatically remembers her feelings for Reni in her past. Dika who loves Reni more than a best friend.


They held hands in front of me.


I broke their hands.


"Don't look at you!!" I'm gonna go to Reni.


"Ups, what's wrong with you? do you like Dika?" rini asked while laughing at me.


"Our moon is just a friend so don't overdo it" said Dika.


I stroked my chest trying to be patient.


The photographic and video evidence of the wedding alone was not convincing enough that we were married.


I was almost desperate to explain it, plus Reni's unsettling presence.
