Jealousy is a thing that often appears in a relationship, whether friendship or romance triggered by several things, ranging from insecurity, fear of loss, envy, loneliness, to anger. Jealousy most often arises in a relationship or marriage, because there is a sense of belonging to a partner that arises as an accumulation of discomfort and worry caused by a relationship.
Jealousy in the relationship between partners is actually a natural and normal reaction, as long as it is not excessive. This is often interpreted as a form of concern for couples. But of course, jealousy should be within reasonable limits, so it can be a relationship booster. Conversely, too often feeling jealous can actually make the relationship uncomfortable and even trigger a fight. Please note, jealousy may arise because “experience” or reflection of one's view of himself. This can ultimately encourage feelings of doubt in the relationship.
And this feeling is what is now sweeping Naz, she felt jealous of her husband's college friend who suddenly came in her household life, she said, even the woman blatantly expressed the intention to snatch Arfin from her side.
Lying, if he did not feel anxious and afraid of the desire Felisha that could come true someday, even though he had been trying to calm himself, but the name of a wife still feels uneasy if her husband is bullied by other women. Moreover, this woman is a person who was very well known to her husband before he knew Naz.
Naz, who was on his way to his parents' house with his husband, just kept silent without a word drowning in his daydream.
“Why do I keep thinking about the words of Aunt Gembel yes, she wants to take what should be hers,, actually how close is the relationship they used to be?? Why didn't Aa tell me about Aunt Gembel, but she said there was nothing to do with it,, and he also used to say that I was his first love and the first woman to date him,,,,”, he murmured inwardly and then sighed deeply while closing his eyes.
“Please yourself Rheanazwa, do not be swayed by the words of Aunt Gembel, I believe in my husband, he will not betray me because he loves me so much,, uh but, I do,, if the cat continues to be fed salted fish, long time can be tempted too, arghhh, why the Aunt Gembel must come sighh,, make my heart not calm aja”, why, Naz is back in dialogue.
“Darling,, what are you from earlier daydreaming?? What do you think??”, Arfin who had been driving occasionally glanced at his wife, finally asked a question that made Naz disperse his daydream.
“Eng,, not really,,, “, Naz who was shocked replied nervously.
“You still think about Felisha?”, Arfin as if he felt that Naz still doubted him, Naz just looked down and did not answer.
They had reached the residence of Naz's parents, Arfin parked his car on the side of the road because the front yard was already in decoration, so the car could not go inside.
The two did not get out of the car, Arfin looked at Naz sitting at the wheel, holding his wife's hand,
“Honey,, Aa would have said that he was just an ordinary friend, nothing more,,, He used to come to Fatma's house and accompany her to the hospital every time Aa did therapy to be able to walk again, but not only the two of us, Mami and Bang Evan always come along,,, He often comes because he is Mami's best friend's son who just happened to move to America because he married someone there, and Aa has no feelings for him either then or now, he said,, because at that time Aa did not have the confidence to approach any woman, plus after that Aa knew that Aa was exposed to impotence, and since then Aa decided not to marry anyone, Feli also knew that, so Aa refused when Mami intended to match Aa with Feli, Please do not doubt Aa, please do not doubt Aa, because you are the only one who Aa loves until anytime, “, Arfin again explained at length.
Naz straightened his head and looked at her husband, he did not see any lies or pretenses on her two beads, only sincerity was able to make his heart feel calm and relieved. Naz turned his palm and made their hands hold each other, He sighed for a moment, “I believe in Aa, because I love you so much” too, she said by throwing a smile at her husband, , and he was now relieved because his wife seemed to no longer doubt him.
“But Aa must promise, if you meet a friend or business partner women do not like hugs or cipika cipiki all”, Naz issued rules.
“Iya dear, after all Aa never hug other women, people she nyosor her own”, Arfin not to blame.
“But Aa can avoid,, or hold back so that she does not bend,,, “, Naz does not want to lose.
“Iya later Aa try”
“What? Try?”, Naz stared intently.
“Yes if the attack is impromptu and suddenly Aa also difficult to avoid”, Arfin reasoned.
“Oh so yes,, yasudah , later also I if I meet Andes, the Embe or other male friends will hug them”, Naz even deliberately heated up her husband.
“Ih, good, no nothing, anyway you can not cuddle with other men”, Arfin immediately hurry.
“Yes later I will try, if an impromptu attack will I where can avoid,,,”.
“Kok even back and forth Aa talk anyway?”, protested.
“Nah right, Aa is also not willing to embrace me with other men, I am the same as it was to Aa, anyway Aa can not hug each other women, “, just like that, Naz.
“Iya dear,, yes, yes, ah do not fuss about this anymore yes, Aa do not want if we fight only because of things that are not clear like this, Aa, anyway, only my very beautiful wife can bend Aa”. Arfin then threw a smile.
“Basic dreadlocks.... ", his great-grandson, "I also don't want if we fight,, you've, let's go, then Mama can-can say if we come late”, Naz removed her seatbelt and rushed out, as did her husband. They walked hand in hand to enter the gate of the old house of Naz, and there began to be many people coming.
After greeting those present, Naz and Arfin went to Naz's room to change clothes, as it was impossible for Naz to wear revealing clothes while attending premarital studies.
As already agreed their phones ran out of battery simultaneously, so the two phones are on the charger in the room, while they go down to follow the course of the event that will begin soon.
The event attended by family, close relatives and neighbors also took place smoothly and full day, after Raline's studies changed clothes and continued at the flush event, by the time all the events are finished. Guests also enjoy the dishes provided by the catering team.
Naz and Arfin returned to his room remembering that their phones had been on the charger for too long for four hours, and they prayed and rested. After finishing the prayer, the two saw the phone that had just been revoked by the charger when they entered the room, and it turns out that on the second phone there were several missed calls and messages from Bu Hinda.
Just about to open the message, Arfin's phone suddenly rang and it turned out that it was a phone call from his Mami, Arfin immediately picked it up.
“Hallo,,, Al,, where have you been so hard to contact?", Ms Hinda who seemed panicked immediately nyerocos without saying hello.
“So his phone is on the charger in the room, Al just finished attending the recitation and his flush Raline,,, What's the matter Mi, how does it sound Mami panicked?”.
“Al,,, Felisha hospital admission,,”.
“What?? Felisha's in the hospital??? Why Mi, not that she was okay?”.
Deg ,,, Naz who heard the words Arfin was immediately surprised, “Waduh,, why the Aunt Gembel could go to the hospital,, what's as bad as that?”, he murmured in his heart.
“Iya, Mi, AL get there”, Arfin then terminates his phone connection. “Darling, Mami said Felisha was in the hospital, since we left she went back and forth to the bathroom until she collapsed she said earlier”, Arfin told Naz.
“Hah,, eng,,, continue?”, asked Naz who was nervous.
“Aa want to go to the hospital, you want to come?”, Arfin indirectly asked his wife for permission.
“Okay, how about, I'm not coming, okay,,, ?? if you go there later found out I made him sick, but if he did not come later he sort of again with my husband”, Naz who was worried muttered in his heart.
“Hey, why daydream,, would you like to join?”, Arfin patted Naz on the shoulder.
“Iy Yes,, I'm coming, just yes I change clothes first, sultry thing if you wear long clothes like gini, which is outside hot”, he said, then Naz changed his clothes with the one he was wearing this morning, because it was not dirty just used for a while.
The two left for the hospital after saying goodbye to Naz's parents. After traveling for a while they arrived, and immediately met Felisha accompanied by Bu Hinda in the hospital room who had been notified by him via WhatsApp message.
When the two entered they immediately approached Bu Hinda who was sitting on the sofa available there, which turned out to be Nervan was also sitting while playing his phone.
“Mami,, how is the state of Felis?”, Arfin directly inquired Felisha.
“She has started to improve, “, Ms. Hinda already seems calm compared to when calling earlier.
“Keep the doctor said what?”,Arfin asked again.
“Say Feli had food poisoning, and Feli said he had chronic heartburn before, so now he's lying weak, an hour ago just got to sleep, he said, earlier he went back and forth to the bathroom until he fainted, where the driver is not there, you are difficult to contact, continued Mami call Abang deh ask for help delivered to the hospital ”, I'm sure, Mami told me her chronology.
“Cock can food poisoning Mi?”, Arfin felt astonished.
“Mampus I,,, should not have come here earlier, can be sprayed or gini way mah”, Naz grumbled in the heart.
“Mi, I came out first, want to pick up call”, Nervan who has been silent since, then part out. “Please Al, the Feli is okay, it's Mami who is too worried, Brother came out first ya”, and, Nervan patted Arfin on the shoulder and turned towards Naz, gesturing with a sharp signal, then moved out.
“Emh,, Mami,,,”, Felisha seems to have regained consciousness, Miss Hinda and Arfin immediately approached her, while Naz still stood in his original place just turning his body back to look at Felisha.
“Feli, you just rest,, do not force wake”, Mami directly approached.
“I'm okay Mi, just calm down..”, Felisha steam that still looks weak.
“You actually eat what the hell can get intoxication?, the feeling was we abis breakfast is okay-what”, Ms Hinda directly asked, because I was curious how could Feli be poisoned while he was at home.
Felisha looked at Naz who seemed to bow her head, like feeling guilty and of course Feli did not waste this opportunity, “Mami,, actually besides me breakfast earlier, Feli did not waste this opportunity, when I came I was made hot lemon tea by his wife Arfin, who I thought was a maid, and the taste of the tea was different from the usual, very sour, taste,, like not the acid from lemon”.
“What??”, Arfin and his Mommy were surprised.
“Yassalam, end my history ", Naz only speaks inwardly.
“Naz,, is that true?”, Arfin directly asked his wife.
Naz kept his head down, “Iy i”, he replied stammering with fear.
“Keep why the lemon tea can be very acidic, instead of there tea bags that taste lemon tea,, ? or are you adding too much lemon juice, baby?”, Miss Hinda asked Naz.
“Eng,,, engak Mi,, the lemon is just a little, kok”, Naz answered nervously.
“If a little why can feel very sour?”, Felisha who looks weak again questioned it.
“Eng,,,, me,, me,, I, I added vinegar to the lemon tea?”, Naz bluntly.
“What???”, ask the three simultaneously,
“Naz, what do you mean do that to me? Don't you like it when I visit Arfin after two years we haven't met? We are just friends, no more, and surely you know that vinegar is very dangerous for the hull ”, Felisha keeps trying to make Naz blamed and as if he was the victim.
“Yassalam,, the undel woman really made me die a flea, you sly, how is this?”, Naz could not make a sound and just talk inwardly.
Arfin who looked upset approached Naz, he pulled his hand and took Naz out
“Naz, what do you mean by mixing vinegar in his Feli?” tea, Arfin began interrogating with a firm tone.
“I,,, I , don't mean anything,,”, Naz looked down and glanced in all directions.
“If you are angry with him because he hugs Aa, this is not the way, you can reprimand him well-”, Arfin spoke softly.
“I______ ", Naz has not continued his words immediately cut.
“Aa know you like to prank people, but do not get too far, you can endanger the lives of others, let alone Feli has chronic ulcer disease, if he was too late to get treatment how? Do you want to take responsibility?”, Arfin who was upset continued to lecture Naz.
“I,, I'm sorry”, Lirih Naz.
“Aa not out of thought, your jealousy can blind your heart and mind, Naz,,”, Arfin continues to criticize Naz.
“I _______”.
“You know that he was sick when he went to the bathroom this morning,, ?? then why are you even letting it go even if we just leave it, are you doing that on purpose, huh?? Let him die then?? Your severity, Naz,,, Aa did not expect you could be this cruel “, Arfin explained that was really angry with Naz's behavior.
“Aa, I don't mean ______ ”
“Enough,,,!! I don't want to hear anymore,, now that you're sorry about Feli”, Arfin raised his voice level.
“But A ______ ".Naz held his head up.
“No but-but an, apologize now, and admit your mistake, let's go in.. ”, Arfin spoke in a firm tone and then pulled back Naz's hand, but Naz let go of his hand violently.
“I don't want to apologize to that cheap woman !!”, exclaimed Naz.
“Naz,,,, !!”, Arfin yelled at Naz, and to his surprise, this was the second time he had been yelled at by her husband since they were married and made his heart so sick. She looked at her husband who gave her a look of anger, making her heart hurt even more, so she could not look at him anymore. Naz turned his face and left Arfin.
“Naz,, stop !!”, Arfin yelled again and his voice was not only into Naz's ears but more pierced into his heart, he did not pay attention to her husband. He continued to walk away with tears, who had no idea where he was headed. She thought it was important she could get away from her husband who had scolded her just because of a woman he said was just an ordinary friend.
The pain deepened as she looked back, there was no movement from her husband to pursue her at all,
“He really doesn't care about me, all he cares about is the woman,, hiks”, he said in his heart, and he kept walking only one of the things on his mind, wanted to leave that place immediately which made her chest feel tight.
As if unaware of his every step, he had now exited the hospital gate, he circulated his gaze, he stopped a taxi, after stopping he immediately boarded it. Tears did not want to stop flowing down his cheeks, he spilled his sadness and cried as hard as possible in the taxi that made the rider shocked and panicked.
“Mbak,, Mbak why?”, ask the taxi driver.
“Father don't ask much, don't talk about it. Just focus on driving,,, huuaaaaaa,,,, “, Bentak Naz and then continue to cry.
The driver did not dare to ask again, he returned to focus on driving and pretended not to hear anything even though his ears felt tormented because all the way continued to listen to Naz's cries. He also accelerated the speed of his vehicle because it happened to be a stingy road, and after a while the taxi he was driving also reached the place to which Naz was headed. But the person was still busy crying without realizing that they had arrived. The driver was confused, wanted to talk afraid of being scolded again, if not talking his ears could be damaged, finally came an idea in his head.
Tin tin tin……. The driver rang the klaskson three times with a long press so that the sound was loud, and it was able to stop Naz's crying.
“Bapak is very noisy anyway,,!! ,”, he complained while having a lot of fun.
“Yeah,, wrong again,,, which since then has been noisy for him,, Oh my God,,,“, Guam driver in heart.
“Sorry Ma'am, we have arrived at the address that Mbak mentioned earlier”, he said ventured.
“Why not say ,?”, Naz protest in a poignant tone with as much as you like.
“This is also me talking,,,”, he said in his heart.
“Kan earlier Mbak said that I do not talk much, so I am silent, so I give you a signal by honking”.
“That's Father again a lot of talk,, “, Naz back yelling.
“Astagfirullah, actually this woman what kind of man, God,,, female stealth is not the heck, wrong continue my feelings from earlier”, Mr. Driver screamed inwardly.
“Nih,, take his change”, Naz deposited a hundred thousand as much as five sheets then went down.
“Thank you Ma'am,, uh but this is mostly, Mbak”, he said when receiving the money.
”I said don't talk much,, go there !!”, cried Naz.
“Yes, yes well,, thanks Ma'am,,”, the taxi driver immediately turned his car to hurry away from the themat, “Alhhamdulillah, Rezeki nomplok,,, and,, it's okay to cry along the way making the ears almost damaged and sprayed as well, but the cost is quite good asbele”.
Naz stepped on his legs with a messy face wet with tears, he walked towards the long chair where he usually divided his wounds and sadness there, he sat with a straight forward view.
The edge of the lake, yes this is where it is now, the place to calm down from all the sadness and problems that have happened to him. Only in this place can he vent his sadness without having to hide his tears from those closest to him.
Alone, that's what he wants to do until his heart feels calm, so he does not have to bring sadness and hurt when he returns home, because it has been tipped over by the lake.
Her tears returned when she remembered her husband's scolding, just this morning sweet words came out of her mouth, but were melted by the scolding and all the slurs that her husband revolted.
Pain,, one word he now feels, is very sick and very sick.
"The bitch was really cunning. hiks... hyks.".", she muttered.
Naz lowered his head with his hands taped to his chest, as if he was enduring the pain, until he did not realize that someone was moving from behind was approaching him who was sitting facing the lake.
Naz gasped when a hand touched his shoulder. He also straightened his head, his palm immediately wiped away the trace of tears that had flowed profusely soaked his cheeks. His feelings were torn between welcoming the arrival of the man, or ignoring him.
