Tonight Anum is alone at home, waiting for her husband who has started working in the office of their best friend's acquaintance.
Although feeling sleepy Anum still forced his eyes to stay open.
His mind drifted on the scene where he left Adnan's own grandparents in the hospital.
Even Anum did not have time to ask why they came to the hospital, also her husband who was still silent and did not tell her anything.
Not getting an answer finally Anum just sighed while leaning his back against the sofa.
“Loh haven't slept?” anum's gaze shifted to Adnan who was standing at the door with the briefcase still hanging perfectly on the man's shoulder.
“Iya, on purpose, want to wait for Mas to come home from work” heard that Adnan was moved staring at the wall clock that had shown at 8 pm.
Adnan's eyes were perfectly rounded, when he looked at the wife who now even showed a five-finger smile.
Not wanting to scold the wife who will end up making Anum cry, Adnan chose to sit next to her, then hugged Anum tight, as if laying all his fatigue on the woman he loved.
This is not the first day Adnan worked as an employee, but still the man felt a very clear difference when working as a leader and employee.
“Capek yes?”
“Banget” Anum giggled amusedly, but his hand rubbed Adnan's back gently.
“Mau Anum make wedang ginger not?” sontak Adnan stretched his arms to be able to look at Anum from a close distance.
“No need, Mas just need like this to recharge energi” said Adnan while smiling weakly.
Anum could see how tired the husband was, but wanted to ask further worried about making the man uncomfortable.
Anum finally resigned when Adnan clung to him like a koala child.
“You've eaten?”
“Already, but.”
“But?” feeling bad Anum again smiled broadly at the husband.
“Speaking up, you hungry again?” shyly Anum nodded followed by a smile Adnan who saw the funny behavior of his wife.
“You want a walk out no?”
“Mas not tired?”
“Kan has filled the energy to the brim by leaning on you Num” godanya make Anum blush again while pinching small chest of her husband.
“Depart now Mas” his word to the husband.
“Sementar” Anum feels lost as her husband walks in leaving her.
Oh yes Anum just remembered maybe Adnan wanted to take a shower first before leaving, why is he so impatient now?
Anum shook his head feeling astonished at himself.
But it did not last long as Adnan was back with his jacket and instant hijab in hand.
“Wear this first, Mas will never be willing to share your beauty with anyone” Anum mengum smile, his hands take two covers of himself and then wear them.
“Anum thinks Mas will take a shower first” his chirps make Adnan who has focused on mobile phone back to look at his wife.
“And let you who already want to run out to find snacks alone?” anum beat her husband back.
“You do not mengeselin ya Mas” sulanya, Adnan laughed but immediately brought the wife into his arms.
“Let's go now” Anum nodded, following the husband who had led him to the doorway.
Anum just silently watched her husband who had moved to lock the door.
They both walk through the cold of the night, Anum hugs her husband's arm for warmth even though she is already wearing a jacket.
Not far from their home there are many street vendors who sell until midnight, which is why they do not need to use a vehicle just to find a night snack.
“What do you want to eat, baby?”
To hide that Anum chose to stare at the ranks of sellers who offer a variety of food.
“Mie chicken that's it Mas” pointed Anum at the Chicken Noodle shop there.
Adnan nodded and again led his wife to walk there.
“Pak his chicken noodles two ya” Adnan immediately took a seat with Anum who was still faithful in his embrace after getting a nod from the merchant.
They chose to sit face to face, chin-backed Anum looked at the serious face of her husband who noticed the seller presenting their wares.
“What's concerned?” anum asked in surprise as Adnan suddenly pulled her closer.
“You sure you want to eat here? This unhygienic Num” whispered made Anum follow the direction of her husband's gaze.
But after Anum sighed, there was nothing wrong there, everything was clean according to the standards of street vendors, which meant Adnan was not hygienic was the seller who did not use plastic gloves, he said, as he used to see in a five-star restaurant first.
“It's okay Mas” said Anum while her husband looked at her disapprovingly.
“Terupon lah” break up Adnan later.
Anum just sniffed his shoulder while waiting for his order to come.
His face sparkled happily as two bowls of chicken noodles still billowing smoke floated before him.
“Please Mas, Mbak”
“Thank you Pak” the merchant nodded and passed away.
In contrast to Anum who enthusiastically concocted his bowl of chicken noodles, Adnan still silently watched his order.
Bribery after bribe Anum was already ravenously pleased, while the husband was still cool in researching the feasibility of food in front of him.
Infuriated by the husband's behavior, Anum wrapped some of his noodles and then bribed Adnan who was surprised to accept the sudden bribe.
Slowly Adnan chewed on the noodles greedily.
“Enak!” he exclaimed, Anum smiled as her husband had concocted his bowl of chicken noodles and had a meal with her.
Now Anum is made to geleng-geleng when the bowl that was still full was almost empty compared to him who ate first.
“You're starving Mas?” his taunts to Adnan who was not bullied by the man.
After finishing his meal and paying, Adnan and Anum decide to go home.
“You don't want anything else?” asked Adnan when the wife was still busy looking into various shops there.
“Actually, I want that toast, can?” tanya Anum was afraid.
“Of course, Come!”
Anum could not hide his happiness when Adnan more enthusiastically led him to one of the toast shops which were only a few shops away from their chicken noodles.
“Thanks Mas!”
The cup!
Adnan stiffened in place, during this time most of him who started intimacy between them, so when he got this sudden attack, Adnan was very surprised and happy.
When their order was finished, Adnan clasped Anum's hand with several packages of toast in his hand.
Adnan's heart is very happy today, although he is very tired but saw the enthusiasm of his wife, also the treatment of the wife who so appreciates it makes everything look beautiful in Adnan's eyes.
Feeling moved Adnan hugged Anum just as they were at the door.
“Mas thinks you will be sad because we now can not walk by car like we used to, or go to a luxurious place like before, Mas think will never see your smile again after everything is lost” said Adnan sad.
Anum stretched out their arms, then framed the handsome face of her husband, “But that didn't happen right? Anum does not matter if everything is lost, as long as it is not the handsome husband of Anum who is missing”
“Thanks”
