The Heart (Nadira)

episode 54

The sound of the door opening turned Alby's gaze. Dira who came out of the bathroom was stunned to see Alby who was changing the sheets in the room.

" I should've done it, Mom."

Alby approached Dira, in his lead Dira to sit on the sofa in the room.

" Sit here first, let Mas take your clothes."

As Alby was about to move, his hand was choked by Dira. He was too ashamed to be treated like that.

" Mad, I can do it myself."

" No, you're tired, so today, you're going to. So you save your energy, for the night. Ok?"

" Night? Is Alby going to do it again? It's still a real pain." Inner Dira.

Alby hurried to get Dira's clothes. And help her put those clothes on. And Alby took the breakfast that was in the nightstand, and then thrust it to Dira. Dira ate his breakfast and enjoyed it.

" Aren't you having breakfast?"

Alby tidied up Dira's hair on her face, then pinned it behind her ears.

" After you, will you eat?"

" Why is that?"

" It's impossible, mas eat homemade mas, mas make special for you."

Dira stopped the chewing. Then I looked at Alby.

Alby nodded his head, and fed the chocolate cheese sandwich to Nadira.

" Do you like it?"

" Like it."

Nadira's eyes glazed over. He really did not expect to be treated this sweet by Alby. I used to imagine it was impossible, but now she feels her husband's love for herself. Alby who saw Dira looked at her with a smile and teary eyes, returned Dira's smile, and rewarded Dira with a kiss on her forehead.

" Now you eat too, I'm a bribe?"

Alby opened his mouth and received a piece of bread from Nadira's hand. Even Alby******* the rest of the chocolate in Dira's hands. After the bread ran out, Alby thrust a glass of milk at Dira. And again they share in the same glass.

Seconds and seconds changed, and today, Nadira was not allowed to leave the room. Everything is done in the room. Starting from breakfast, lunch, to dinner. Mbok Kasum who did not see Dira one daily also asked Alby who came out of the room to bring the dirty dishes used for their dinner. And make Nadira a glass of warm milk.

" Den, Neng Nadira how not to look out of the room, what is Dira sick Den? Kok the mbok so worried, since returning home yesterday, neng Dira did not go out of the room too."

Mbok Kasum asked in a worried tone and mixed with reluctance to Alby. Alby who was making milk for Nadira also just answered casually.

" Dira is okay - Napa mbok. Dira is in the room, Dira just sauces aja mbok.Mbok do not have to worry yes. Al to the room mbok. Mbok also rest ya."

Alby finished making Dira's milk. And hurried into the room. On seeing him Nadira had spread out the prayer mat and had finished using Alby's gift.

" We're worshippers again, ma'am."

Alby nodded, then placed his homemade milk on the nightstand, and rushed to the bathroom to pick up ablution. At the sight of Koko's clothes and sarongs and peci have been prepared Dira on the bed. Alby looked more handsome with the clothes provided by Dira.
