The Love of Habib

The Love of Habib
Chapters 31.1



After dinner we prayed and went to the guest room. When I entered the guest room, I was personally shocked to see the pile of presents in the room. Starting from small gifts to large, bags from certain brands to mystery boxes that are deliberately placed with their respective categories.


The gifts we found were quite surprising. They are all dominated by clothes, shoes, cookware, beautiful jewelry, and even the worst of them are children's clothes. We both didn't know we had to laugh or cry looking at the line of kids clothes you found out from some of the gifts.


I think this is not how much because what makes me most surprised is the pile of official clothes of various styles. There are characters of cats, foxes to rabbits. The shape is weird, too sexy and very open. Honestly, no matter how free I was in the city before entering the boarding house, my association was not so bad.


"God, they're all very attentive to us, aren't they, baby? Just know if we need any more clothes." Mas Khalid took the black and white cat character's official outfit and showed it off in front of me.


Ah, what a shame. My face was immediately hot when I saw the clothes being held by my own husband. The effect is very different from the cold and thoughtful husband my husband always displays when meeting other people.


"Mas Khalid don't mess around. Udah, the clothes we contribute, huh? I am ashamed to wear this shirt. In addition, it would be better if a woman uses a covered shirt rather than using open clothes, especially to please her husband. I'm doing this for you, aren't I?" I refused to wear clothes like this.


I know that this reason does seem careless. Because a wife should like her husband, and not wrong to use these clothes in front of the husband. After all, the wife uses it in front of her husband not in front of others let alone a man.


And I knew that my husband would dispute my argument.


"Where are you going? Be careful if you want to stop something especially it is related to clothes. If you wear this you give to a married person then it will be useful, because this clothing will make the husband and wife relationship harmonious. But if you give this dress to an unmarried person then I think it should not be to prevent unwanted things from happening. Besides, this is a gift from our friends my wife. This is their heart shape to us over our marriage yesterday. Do you give a gift that people have painstakingly given to you to others? Have you ever wondered how a gift giver feels if he knows the gift he gives to others? My advice is do not love to others and use enough for yourself. In addition, my wife wearing these clothes is prohibited and the law is illegal if you use them in front of others. But if it's in front of me then it's a highly recommended law. Because we are both halal with each other so why are you ashamed to wear these clothes in front of me? Anyway, dear if you wear this shirt, it means you want to please your husband. Honestly, I'm happy to see you wearing these clothes, because the only man who can see you wearing this kind of open clothing is just a man. Only I can see your beauty, your beauty, and everything inside you. I am the only one who can see, touch, and feel or even look after him. Besides me you're not allowed to do it to anyone else. Otherwise," Highlight my husband's eyes threatened.


"Don't blame me for punishing you with a punishment you've never imagined in life." He said it scared me.


Starting from his tone and sharp gaze, I cannot ignore it that easily. Khalid, if the mood is serious no matter what, he will never forget what he said and swore, because he will continue to remember it.


But on this side of my eyes suddenly opened wide - oh, I mean all my views to Khalid's mas were immediately subverted today. Hearing Khalid saying the frontal words in front of me without the slightest shame made me suddenly realize that Khalid was very open to me. But in front of people, no matter who it was, he always put on a friendly yet alienated face, acting closed as if he was an unapproachable person.


Though in fact mas kali in front of me is because of a very possessive, protective and jealous. Sounds scary, but it's not really. Even this kind of attitude made me feel that I was very loved by my husband. It was as if I was the only woman who could fit into her eyes, other than me, any woman could not have this special treatment.


O Allah, how grateful I am to be juxtaposed with men better than Khalid. Every time I think about how lucky I am to be married to Khalid, my heart ceaselessly praises and thanks God for the grace he has given me in this life so that I can marry the Khalid.


"Well, you daydream again. Who else thought, huh? I have a habit of talking to you, you must be dreaming. Don't do this when you talk to me, baby. I don't like your attention getting distracted when you're with me. Especially when I'm talking seriously to you, I don't like it, baby."


But Khalid was easily sulked if he ignored it for a moment. I thought he wasn't thinking of anyone else.


"Mas Khalid don't be angry. I'm sorry for suddenly daydreaming at the time when Khalid was talking seriously to me. And actually I was thinking about Khalid. Seriously, whenever I got close to Khalid and listened to what I was talking about, I suddenly thought that I was very lucky to be able to marry Khalid. Besides that, I also like the possessive and protective attitude of Khalid to me. Maybe it was because the bitter story of Mama being ignored by Dad made me cultivate the thought that I might be a hard-to-love person or maybe I didn't meet someone who loved me as sincerely as people on the outside sana. Because my mom is going through the same thing and my life at my dad's house is not good either. But after getting married to Khalid, and it's only been a few hours that we've been living together, my heart feels very comfortable and peaceful. I think that it turns out this feels loved sincerely by the people we love anyway. And how satisfied I was when I found out that Khalid was very possessive and protective of me, to others it might sound scary but to me personally I was very happy because I would feel loved by Khalid. I'm so happy, mas." I don't know what made me freely bring out all my thoughts to Khalid. Pouring out what I felt, and revealing what I thought to my husband.


"Come here" He brought out my right hand.


Without a doubt I held it, then in a blink of an eye I was already drawn into his warm embrace.


"Thank you... Thank you for understanding my heart. I once thought that you were afraid of the greedy nature within me, but it turns out that you would accept it and even like its greed. I am like this my wife, I am always greedy when it comes to you. I don't know when these crazy thoughts are ingrained in my heart, but for sure I can't turn away from you. Since we are both here, I want to tell you a lot about everything I have. 5 years ago I managed to build a jewelry company in the Middle East with my own two hands. The company was not a treasure passed down by my parents, nor was it a treasure shared by my other family... That company is purely my own hard work for you."


Huh, for me?


"For me, mas?"


Khalid smiled.


"Don't you remember that ring I gave you a while ago?"


Remember, I always took her everywhere because to me the ring meant so much.


"I always draped it, mas." I said while showing the necklace that encircled my neck.


This necklace is actually a pendant that Khalid gave me at the boarding house first. At first I wanted to keep this necklace because it was too valuable to wear everywhere, but Khalid gave me a ring, I immediately changed my mind. The ring could not be worn because it was too small, and I was reluctant to leave it in the box because it was too precious. So I turned my head, removed the eye of the diamond butterfly necklace and made the ring the eye of the necklace. While the eyes of the butterfly necklace I kept tightly in the box and have now entered the safe in our house.


Mas Khalid touched the ring with a gentle look full of nostalgia. Just like me, the dowry might think that this ring is also very valuable to her.


"It's nice that you always take good care of her." He looked at me, "Do you know that this ring is a witness to my jewelry company?"


Didn't this ring Khalid gave me 5 years ago when I was sick in the hospital?


"It's true." As if understanding my confusion, he continued to speak, "This ring is the first product produced by my company and the only model owned by my company, he said, because I made this ring myself and it was made especially for you."


Ah, this is very surprising news. Has Khalid thought of me that far at such a young age?


"This is the ring I made for our wedding 5 years ago. But it was a pity that you were sick and the ring was too big for you, so regretfully I kept this ring by my side but did not throw it away. At that moment I thought that someday I would give you this ring. And qadarullah, that day came but unfortunately once again, this ring is too small for your finger."
