The Marriage of an Old Friend
chapter 15. jealousy
2 Days of cold war with his wife, Reyhan returns home in the hope that today can make up or at least a truce first. it feels bad to be quiet and raise a lot of questions from the family.
due to the quarrel, Reyhan was not focused while in the office.even the man felt upset with himself.had to do before acting had to think first. at least if it has done it must immediately tell the wife, but Reyhan instead chose to be silent because he felt his wife did not need to know. sympathy to others who even make his wife disappointed in him. let alone the problem of the former lipstick damn attached to his shirt. cursed slowly, Reyhan opened his door and said hello.
"assalamualaikum, mas go home deck" said the man who was looking at the black bag in his left hand.
"walaikumsalam" replied Risha from the dining room.
pulling up a chair and occupying her, Reyhan smiled broadly at the food at the dining table.
"wah, Adek cook chicken rica-rica?" Reyhan.
"yes, eat first mas." replied Risha without any expression.
his flat face read by Reyhan, the man knew his wife had not made up. Receiving a plate containing rice and side dishes taken by Risha, Reyhan smiled warmly.
"tomorrow is the celebration of the mother's shop branch, Adek want to help ?" tanya Reyhan started the conversation.
"yes." answered Risha briefly.
"tomorrow to pick Adek up."
"wasn't there an out-of-town event tomorrow with Safira? don't make promises to others easily, if you can't do it ..."
reyhan's hand movements stopped, his gaze dimmed. "when did I not do the thing I promised you? why do you have to talk like that with me?"
standing up from his seat, Reyhan stepped away.he stopped as Risha called out.
"the thing I'm afraid of is happening, right?" risha said coldly.
Reyhan pulled his eyebrows trying to guess the direction of the wife's conversation.
"after that day, the next morning Sapphira came to the room with a lunch box.did you two eat?" Risha looked up at Reyhan with a pushy look.
"what because that day Adek did not make mass and mas also did not ask, because mas have asked Safira who made it?" he added, a cynical smile adorns the full face of disappointment.
"dad, it's not what Adek saw and thought.mas with Safira not..."
"it's clear that there's a mas, and what else is it going to look like?" cut Risha, get up and stand in front of Reyhan.
"proof what the hell deck? all of this is not true, I swear. Safira was indeed packed for mas as a sign of gratitude, but I refused, and he brought the provisions out again.believe the same mas!"
"if that day Sapphira asked or forced the mas to drive him maybe Adek will not be this angry, but this? the man who offered himself. I was disappointed mas, the whole office knew that Safira had a crush on the same mas. and I'm sure mas also must know that. Then why not avoid even self-nawarin?" risha exclaimed in a very high voice.
"why is it still discussed again the problem anyway, it is clear!" Reyhan was provoked when he heard Risha who was slightly shouting.
"yes, because the problem is the context, which makes all the fights happen, what I call unimportant." Risha brushed her tears.
Reyhan inhaled the air and exhaled it violently, the man massaging his temple.
"it is enough until there only. mas do not want us to fight continuously because of the unimportant problem" said Reyhan softly while holding his wife's shoulders.
"but it's important to me!" risha jolted, brusquely shaking Reyhan's hand.
"astaghfirullah Risha's! now what do you want, huh?" Reyhan rubbed his hair violently.
"tomorrow I will resign from the company.I hope, I agree." suddenly Risha said a very unreasonable thing.
"what kind of empty talk is this?" reyhan's chest is deflated, has not been able to solve his one problem and is now increasing again the ridiculous speech of the wife.
"i don't want to see things that make my heart hurt.I'm better at home and don't know anything than the office having to look at the mas with Safira." replied Risha, looking down.
"enough! No resignation, I know very well working in the company is Adek's dream, and we end our debate here. CAPE' MAS'!"
after saying that, Reyhan passed into the room and closed it tightly.
Risha follows Reyhan behind her until she is shocked.
"sorry, Adek jealous mas." he muttered slowly.
Risha stared at the wall clock that showed at half 8 p.m. Risa grabbed her bag and got out of the house.
while Reyhan threw his body on the mattress, the man tried to relieve his emotions.Tired with office work and when he came home to welcome the debate the wife made him force sleep to sleep.
