The Deepest Regrets of a Husband

The Nandini

When you are finished from the bathroom. Gabriel looked slightly tidying his hair in front of the mirror. When he felt he was pretty good. Gabriel then grabbed Nandini's hand and grasped it tightly. After that, they both came out of the room.

They just came out of the room. Some people who had also just come out of their rooms. Seemed to notice the movements of Gabriel and also Nandini. Especially when Gabriel deliberately grasped Nandini's hand so tightly. Making both of them suspected by fellow residents of the boarding house, the majority of the residents are women.

Uncomfortable because I feel suspicious. Nandini then removed her hand from Gabriel's.

"Why take off, baby?"

"They must be suspicious." - Sergah Nandini.

"Let them be suspicious. What cares about us. We are husband and wife. If necessary I'll show you our marriage book so they don't think we're a perverted couple" Gabriel said

"Download your voice. Don't make me ashamed of boarding here. You know I'm the one who doesn't like to get into trouble."

"Yes darling. I'm sorry." said Gabriel, who no longer wanted to irritate his wife.

And, the chicken porridge ended up being the breakfast of choice for Nandini as well as Gabriel that morning.

They enjoy a breakfast of chicken porridge on the side of the road not far from Nandini boarding house.

By sitting face to face. Nandini and Gabriel seem to be focusing on their own food.

While enjoying the chicken porridge, Gabriel was unceasingly watching Nandini's face which was focused on enjoying the porridge.

Unintentionally, when Nandini wanted to grab a tissue to clean her mouth. Nandini turned to Gabriel. At the time, he was also looking at himself.

"Mas, eat the porridge. Don't look at me. Later the porridge will be cold and not good." said Nandini to the husband.

"These porridge will still be good even if it's cold. If I enjoy it with you." said Gabriel, who continued to fight Nandini.

"You're getting more beautiful, baby."

"Yes, don't start. I don't have much time. Thirty more minutes I should've gotten to work. I don't want to be late. During my time at work, I always held high regard for discipline."

"Yes, we'll both go. We have one goal."

"By the way, until when Gabriel will stay at the hotel. It doesn't work. Who takes care of the company. Didn't all this work depend on the same?"

"I deliberately took a few weeks off. And I did it on purpose to find you." Gabriel replied, while they were still in an online taxi that would take them to the hotel.

"Now I know where I am. And we even met. Better to go back to Jakarta. Mama must be looking for you."

"My business here is not done yet." Gabriel said.

"Not finished what. I've met you." replied Nandini, turning to Gabriel.

"But my business hasn't really been sorted out, baby. Because I haven't fought if I haven't been able to bring you back into my life" Gabriel said, grabbing the hand of the woman he loved so much. Then he squeezed Nandini's fingers. Scared him with his hands.

"There's still a lot to talk about. I'm quite happy to have found you. And we've made peace like this. But I don't think I'm relieved if you don't want to be with me anymore. In a sense, you're willing to come with me."

For a moment, Nandini looked at Gabriel's face. A moment later he lowered his face.

"Honestly, I still need time to think about that. If you want to take me back to Jakarta. If that means you want me to follow you again, and go back to that house. That taste is impossible. I don't want to make mama's day bad because of me. Because I know, mom never accepted me as her daughter-in-law. And I know myself enough now. To not want to force yourself porch one house with mama. I don't hate my mom. But I don't want yesterday's problems repeated."

"Mas never said it would take you back to Jakarta and stay home again with my family. I'm not stupid, baby. I might mix you with my family again, especially with my mom. It won't."

"Lantas, what do you want?"

"I'm going to buy a house for us. Or, I could build your dream home. We used to aspire to have a dream home."

"Then what about mom? I don't want to make a mas on the stamp as a kid who doesn't know manners. What's more, I also don't want to be an excuse for a mother and child to have a problem."

"The problem is mom, not you, not us. Mama was too stubborn and forced her will. If my mother is conscious. I'm sure mama wouldn't be so hard on us."

"Trust me dear. Past events will not happen again. I promise."

Gabriel seems to be trying to persuade his wife to want to go back to her completely.
