The Love Rhyme of Kawa

SCK 56: Lara Hearts

Kawa hugs Zahra and invites her to enter the movie theater she has rented. Because the clock is about to start. Zahra started to control herself and her tears.

"Hey.don't be sad," said Kawa to appease his wife, they were already inside the cinema. Zahra was wailing, why is there no other audience?

Kawa smiled. "Why,?"

"Why just us,?" ask Zahra astonished. Kawa's been quietly ordering one of these buildings for tonight.

"Because I've paid for everything" Kawa smiled, her right hand embracing Zahra. Zahra rounded her eyes, it could be that one of these movie theaters was only the two of them watching.

"If you want to do something, want to cry want a story, this room will be safe for you," Kawa replied with a serious face, because she knew Zahra was not okay. "I'm not a psychic who can laugh at your heart, and I know you're not okay,"

The lights of the cinema building began to dim, the film was just starting to play. Zahra was silent and looking at the movie that started spinning, no sentences came out. He was looking at the storyline in the film, while Kawa let Zahra enjoy the dish in front of him. Almost two hours of no conversation between them, but their hands were both clinging.

The lights started, and they decided to stay there.

"How's your mood, then,?" asked Kawa while looking at Zahra's face that still looks not okay, Zahra also shed tears. A little confused Kawa, whether the film that makes Zahra moved or indeed she is sad with her heart. Kawa rubbed Zahra's head gently.

"I'm sorry bang," he pleaded. Kawa still had not asked at length, she let Zahra finish her grief first. "I'm sorry bang" he said again.

Zahra pulled away from Kawa's embrace, and looked at her husband's face.

"Bang.if one day I can not give you offspring, I am willing to be released by brother," he said firmly.

"Zahra...what are you talking about,?" Kawa asked softly, her heart suddenly felt numb with a sentence that slid from Zahra's lips. "Everything will be fine," Kawa was still reassuring. Zahra shook her head, now that she could control her tears. Not a single drop of drip.

"What are you thinking? don't be selfish by holding it yourself,"

"I'm sorry, maybe you picked the wrong wife,"

Sentence by sentence Zahra had started to mess with Kawa.

"Zahra.ok we go home yes, you are tired, and you need rest," Kawa held his wife's shoulders and stared fixedly. Zahra bowed without chiming. Kawa was made even more confused by that vague sentence.

"So, I went to the doctor, and I was pretty much less likely to get pregnant the normal way,"

The sentence made clear what Zahra was feeling, the grim face seen since then explained about this.

"Zahra...have you forgotten what is in you,? with what are you holding right now,?"

Zahra looked at Kawa sharply.

"You are forgetting that the one who has the universe is the Almighty" Kawa swallowed his saliva, apparently his wife was really at a point of despair. Kawa pulled his wife's body and hugged her tightly. Calm him as much as he can.

"Everything will be fine, if God does not allow us to have children, it will not discourage me from staying with you" Kawa said. And this time Zahra's defense collapsed, her tears melted, she couldn't explain her heart's contents.

Kawa stroked Hanna's back, so that she would calm down and feel less alone. Although he really did not know what was going on today.

       Along the way, Kawa occasionally stared at Zahra who had not spoken a word at all. Kawa gives Zahra a chance to calm her mind.

"Bang.can we go to Mother's house, Zahra miss Mother's Father and also Dira," he said.

"Come on, um..have I taken a vacation, then,?"

Zahra.

"It's okay, baby,"

"No need to bang, just take a weekend is okay, which is important to meet Dad, Mom, and Dira, too,"

        ***

Dira shouted in excitement as he saw Zahra get off the car,

"Bundaaaa," cried Dira then poured into Zahra's arms. Zahra crouched down and hugged Dira back.

"Mother misses Diraa," Zahra hugged Dira tightly.

Kawa dropped off their luggage and brought it in. In front of already Bu Latif and Mr. Latif, Kawa greeted one by one his parents.

"How was the trip, son? is it fun,?" bu Latif asked kindly, she was happy to see her son and daughter-in-law visiting her.

"Yes Buk, sorry to be here,"

"That's okay, I understand you guys are busy,"

"Well," said Kawa while greeting Mr. Latif. The man nodded, his eyes looking towards Zahra and Dira who were walking closer towards them. They look happy to meet.

"Well...Buk," Zahra greets one by one her parents.

"Mother.mother.I have a toy from grandpa,"

"Oh yeah, what is it,?" zahra asked in a curious tone, Dira eagerly holding Zahra's hand invited her inside, she wanted to show her the toys she had.

"This," Dira lifted a set of cooking utensils bought by her grandfather a few days later. Zahra nodded happily.

"Mother also brought toys for Dira,"

"Oh yeah? where,?" his eyes sparkled, he was happy to hear that. Zahra came out for a while and picked up the toy she had prepared for Dira.

Dira opened a large totebag and opened it, some Barbie dolls along with her house and also her trinkets.

"Waaw is really good, thanks to bun..," said Dira, his eyes were busy looking at the toy he was unloading.

"Beloved together," Zahra stroked Dira's hair, and the little girl looked even more beautiful. It seemed that he was fine without Zahra, and Zahra was very grateful.

They had just had dinner, Kawa was talking to Mr. Latif on the front porch, talking about work and other conversations. Zahra and her mother and Dira were in the living room.

"How's it going in there?"

"Good buk,"

"Alhamdulillah, I'm glad to hear it," Latif saw Zahra who did look fine. Zahra herself was quite able to hide what she was feeling. For him now seeing his family is enough to comfort his heart.

"Is Dira growing well, Mom,?"

"Yes, thank God, as you see. Dira's not fussy, she's smart and yeah.Grow well,"

"Thank God," Zahra was relieved.

Zahra saw Dira playing with his toys, not far from them.

"Hows it? will Mom be back to holding grandchildren, right,?" whiskey Bu Latif. Hearing the question, Zahra was silent for a moment, then smiled slightly.

"Just pray Buk,"

"Surely son, I will always pray for the best. Your father who looks impatient" he whispered with a small laugh.
