The Faithful Heart

He Loves her so much

" Thank you for this delicious meal, Mrs Aleena, I'm so full." Hana stroked her stomach. He had once added a portion of food in his bowl, either because the food was delicious, or indeed Hana who was eager to eat.

" There's no need to worry about it Honey, aren't we family?"

" Dear it's time for medicine." Russell reminded his wife.

" Yes, yes, you've said it over and over again." said Aleena.

" Honey I'm staying for a while huh, this guy will continue to nag if not obeyed." whispered Aleena towards Hana. He got out of his chair lazily.

" Drink your medicine, Mrs Aleena, my husband and I will take care of the leftovers."

" Thank you Honey. Sorry if it's a hassle." Aleena stroked Hana's shoulder.

" Not at all, Madam."

" Dear.." call Russell with emphasis. He was already in the room and prepared medicine and injections for his beloved wife, because that was their daily routine. Aleena had to take many medicines as well as an injection to suppress her pain and prolong her life.

" I'm coming, be patient."

After Aleena left for her room Hana and Dewa cleaned the dining table and cleaned all the dirty eating utensils.

" Sweetie you're getting good at doing dishes. Looks like we can open a restaurant, ha ha." seduced Hana while waiting for her husband to wash the tableware because the handsome man did not let Hana do the job.

" Is that so?"

" Yes, that way we'll save on expenses because we don't have to pay for the dishwasher."

" Yes, do as you please. But you must pay me with another." God's lips grinned.

" Is this enough?"Hannah hugged her husband's body from behind.

" That's fine, but that's not enough." The god turned his body so that now their positions were facing each other.

" Rmmm..." God melu*mat his wife's tiny lips gently.

" This is just a down payment." The god smiled meaningfully.

" If this...." Hana replies to her husband's kiss with *****deeper.

" Is this enough to count as payment?" hanam's smile looked very seductive.

" You forget that I never knew enough about you?" God tightened his arms and tightened his body to the woman who had made him always drunk at the end of this.

" I'm sorry, I have your room ready. Please if you want to rest or do anything in it." said Russell caught the activity of God with his wife.

" I'm sorry Mr. Russell. We do not mean.." said Hana sungkan while breaking his body from God. His cheeks were already flushed like tomatoes in embarrassment.

" Come on, there's no need to be embarrassed like that. Isn't that the usual thing especially you newlyweds. Let me show you your bedroom."

Wow my real dad is very understanding. He knows the needs of his son.

" Please enter this room. Make yourself as comfortable as possible." Russel took Dewa and Hana to a room he had cleaned before.

" Thank you Mr. Russell, sorry to trouble you" Hana said politely.

" There's no need to be confused like this. Actually I've never done this before, but since Aleena likes you so much then this is an exception. Thank you for making her feel happy. I was so happy to see her laughing like that. What you have done means so much to us. You seem to have made him come back to life. Again, thank you."

" Please enjoy your room, think of it as your own."

" Thank you very much Mr. Russell because you and Mrs Aleena are willing to accept us and treat us very well. Oh, where is Miss Aleena?" ask Hana.

" Let's relax, sir, I'll remember all of that. If I may know what really happened to Mrs Aleena? Is the disease severe?"

" That's....." Russell hesitated to continue.

" I'm sorry if my question makes you uncomfortable." said Hana.

" It's okay. Maybe it is better if you know it so that in the future you can treat it properly. Aleena has terminal blood cancer. Previously he never showed any symptoms but the last six years was only discovered when he suddenly fainted and nosebleed. Doctors said her age would not last long. For one year he was treated at the best hospital but his illness did not improve. The doctor can only give her medication to relieve her pain. Aleena insists on getting out of the hospital and spending the rest of her life in a peaceful and beautiful place. Yes, here we are now the village of Giethoorn. He looks better here than when he had to lie in a hospital bed before. Every day I have to make sure he takes a lot of medicine so he doesn't look like he's in pain. Every second was God's blessing and mercy for him because he was still allowed to breathe. I always try to stay strong and hide my sadness. I don't want him to feel sad to see my sadness." Russell said. It did not feel like a speck of water had seeped out from the corner of his eyes.

" Ah sorry, I didn't mean to make you all sad." Russell is not feeling good for having made Hana cry with her story.

" It's okay. You must love Mrs Aleena very much." said Hana softly.

" Surely, he is everything and the reason I live. I don't know how I'd live my life if she was gone."

" Ah, that's why I've been bouncing where. Please rest first. Inside there are a few change of clothes, hopefully it fits you. I have to accompany Aleena in the room." Russell rubbed his face violently and passed leaving Hana and the Deity still glued in front of the room.

" He loves Aleena very much, Hana. There was only him in his life." the God snorted his face bowed miserably.

" Dear......." Hannah carried her husband's body into her arms.

" We go in first. We can talk inside."

Hana and the God set foot into the room Russell had prepared for them. The room looks comfortable and peaceful with a simple appearance with a mattress as the main furniture.

Warm and calm, that's the first impression felt by Dewa and Hana when stepping foot into the minimalist room.

" Take it easy, baby." Hana guides her husband to sit on the edge of the mattress that looks very warm.

" Am I a mistake, baby? Am I a bully among their true love? Should I never have existed?" The god stared at the nanar towards his wife's bead.

" Of course not. Remember Allah must have the best plan for each creature. You can't be like this. Remember, I'm by your side." Hana held both cheeks of her husband lovingly.

" really? I used to question my real father. Now when I meet him I can't even tell him about this truth. What should I do, baby. I don't want to hurt a woman as good as Aleena by saying that I'm the biological child of a contract marriage from her husband to another woman, let alone her current condition. I don't want to make him sad. I also can't say this all to dad, he would definitely feel so guilty for never knowing my whereabouts and forsaking me all along. What should I do, baby? What am I supposed to do?" The gods are back.

" Look down, don't be like this. Whatever your decision I will always support you. Please don't be like this." Hannah tried to strengthen her husband.

" You're right, I can't be like this. I've been praying all along to meet my real father and Alloh has granted it all." The god let out a long sigh and wiped away all his tears.

" Just let it stay like this, baby, I'll keep my identity a secret as her biological child. Maybe this is the best thing for all of us. The important thing is that I've met and known him as a good man is enough for me. Yeah, looks like this is the best." The gods strengthen his heart.

" Are you sure you don't want to tell me all this?"

" Yes, just leave it like this. This is more than enough. I don't want the truth about me to destroy their happiness." The god forced his lips to smile.

" Well, if that's your decision. I'll support you completely." Hannah tucked gently on her husband's forehead.

" Let's go about our day here full of happiness. Let's make a lot of good memories with them."

" The day?" ask God.

" Oh yes, I forgot to tell you dear that I have agreed to Aleena's request to stay here for a few days." Hana patted her own lidad.

" You don't mind, do you?"

" Of course not. Alright let's carve out a lot of good memories here." said the God with spirit.

" Then we start with our ritual Isn't that also including fond memories?" The god pounced on his wife's body and led her towards the peak of mutual enjoyment as he had already.
