The Perfect Happiness

S3 - Eps 151

Tika POVs.

Tokk tokk!

I knocked on Shilla's room door that had been wide open since this morning. After she calmed down and came out of her room. I don't know what Mom said to him.

"Can I come in?" I asked to see Shilla lying down with Feli, her second child.

I stepped my foot to enter, after seeing the sign of his entry. Then sit on the edge of his bed. Shilla changed posisinga to sit up and leaned on the head of the bed.

His face looks sad. Both of his eyes still look puffy due to crying long enough earlier. His lips are pale.

"Am I being too outrageous?" tanyanya opened her voice to me. I was confused as to what to respond to it. But Aju also did not want to be too indifferent to him. After all, she is my sister-in-law. I have to sympathize a little with him.

I shrugged both of my shoulders to express a doubt to his question. "Eitherway. I really don't understand."

"You think, when the incident happened at that time, is it possible that Max could feel the vibration of love again?" Shilla looked at me with her two unblinking eyeballs. It's been too long, making it even harder to deal with.

"I don't understand. But when you're going through all of that, you're also going through Max's last words?"

Shilla nodded. "But I can't be as confident as your brother," he bowed his face, looking at his two clutched hands.

Both of Shilla's shoulders also looked lifted, perhaps she exhaled so heavily.

"I know Max was wrong, but I don't want to defend him either. I don't want to defend anyone. I also had a misunderstanding with Jefri. We didn't get angry and greet each other for months. But when the two of us tried to talk, it revealed each other's heart. It all feels easier." I started telling Shilla where Jefri and I used to have a misunderstanding.

I do not mean to patronize Shilla, because when viewed from the age of marriage, he must have more experience in building a married life. It's just that this time I don't want to see spelling like this.

"We all have a past and it gives us an experience. From there we can act to be wiser in managing the future. Speak both, heart to heart." I rubbed the back of Shilla's hand gently.

Then I stood up and walked away from her room. Closing the door to his room so he could think more clearly. Then I went back to my room. Sitting on the bed, next to Jefri who was asleep. I put my back on the head of the bed.

Then suddenly he woke up, we looked at each other and then Jefri moved his head over my lap with his feet clamping my legs. "Where are you from?" ask her with a distinctive hoarse voice waking up her sleep.

"From Shilla's room. She's in total shock like that." I gently rubbed Jefri's head while playing her hair.

"If I did the same thing as Max, would you think so?" he asked with his eyes still closed.

I was flabbergasted to hear the question coming out of his mouth just like that. For a few seconds I was silent, before I finally decided to pull her hair to look at me. "Douh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh, Yang! Aishh!" whine and then I let go of the pull.

"What did you say? You think about Paula again, right? Ohh or out there you met him? Come ngaku!" spray me suddenly and then fold my arms in front of my chest. With my two eyeballs I can confirm if I am currently glaring at him.

Jefri stroked his own head while rising from his sleep and laughed, quite loudly.

"You can still be jealous? I thought love died with me?" With confidence he spoke.

I hit his arm because I was still upset by the question. "Are you really thinking about Paula?" ask me again, to make sure and at the same time confirm that I do not like the woman.

"Did you mention that name? I don't want another woman anymore. Enough of you, has made me satisfied outside the court." Jefri pulled my hand when I hit him back softly. Took me into his arms.

"What the hell!" I'm shy.

Max POV's.

Time has shown at two o'clock in the afternoon. I've been waiting for Haikal to come home from his lunch date for an hour, and he didn't even show me his nose.

A few cigarettes had also run out I enjoyed with a can of beer, on the balcony next to his house. But just as I was about to head back to the kitchen to get another can of beer from the fridge, I heard the sound of a car coming into the side garage.

Immediately I headed to the front door of his house. It turned out to be true, Haikal had come. Holding the door for him. Then let him in, walk after me.

"Hey, isn't that my shirt?" yell from behind me.

I flinched and spontaneously looked. "Borrow, I need to take a shower." No less strict with his tone of voice.

Haikal placed a parcel on his dining table, which I immediately grabbed, without the ba-bi-bu.

"Aish, don't-don't you borrow me too!" chirped again.

I heard her saying while taking a drink from the refrigerator. "It just so happens that the new, sealed interior I'm wearing." I shamelessly snuggled towards the balcony again.

Eating on the balcony is a good choice during the day. The sunlight is not too hot, even looks friendly due to the shade of trees that shade this place. Amgin sepilir sepoi since earlier indeed accompanied me to sit here.

I forgot Haikal's expression after I finished speaking his words earlier. For I did not pay much attention to the look of his last face. Until he suddenly appeared in the doorway and stepped closer to me. Pull a chair near me and sit down.

"God!! You really check?" peekikku was surprised to hear his words. Then shook my head, feeling unnatural with my sister's attitude.

Then I was again preoccupied with food in front of me, while Haikal immediately took my cigarette box and lit a cigarette. For a moment we passed in silence about each other's activities.

"After this you better go home, Max. Shilla's poor with the kids." Haikal started throwing out sentence after sentence that had indeed entered my brain. Until I managed to finish my lunch this time.

After that I did not move, but took a cigarette and took a sip. Seeking pleasure in every tobacco smoke that burns, while inviting my brain to return to work. Thinking of the right way to get Shilla's attention back.

Yes, I still love her and will love her. I'm just upset that his attitude ignores me. Not more.

And I realized, I shouldn't have snapped at him this morning. My attitude is indeed outrageous, I must have hurt his heart again. In my troubled mind, I thought of all sorts of things that would happen later. Then what should I do?

"Yeahhh!!" I exhaled my breath violently.

"Home home if you miss. A little romantic wife does not hurt. Don't let him go back to his parents' house." Haikal said all that.

But in his words there is a point as well. I already miss him. And if Shilla gets home, what should I tell her parents? And how else should I persuade him?

After thinking for a while, I finally decided to go home soon. Bamitan with Haikal and immediately took my wallet and car keys in his room.

"Let's have lunch with her clothes. Hye!" I cried for a moment before stepping out of his house.

I didn't wait for a response from him to rush a little towards the car. Passed through his yard quickly. Getting into the car and darting away, leaving Haikal who was somehow looking at his face as I left from there.

Along the way, I really regretted my tone of voice that rose to her this morning. I'm so outrageous. There is no stopping me to condemn that mistake deliberately.

Arriving home, there was no other purpose I wanted to go to other than my own room. Coming wife. I set foot in a hurry and opened the door. Shilla turned her head towards me who was standing in the doorway.

I immediately came to him who was standing in front of the closet, there were already some clothes lying on the mattress. I don't know what he's doing with his clothes. I hugged him from behind, because he really liked that.

I put my face in the recess of his neck, inhaling his scent.

"Sorry ... He is my past, but I will not be able to bring him into the future. You are the present and the future for me. I want us to age together. Live life with all the obstacles." I said slowly.

Then I turned her body to face me. Keelus soft cheek. Look at both of his eyes. "I'm sorry I slipped him between us. I'm the brash one. But I promise, after this there's nothing like it anymore."

For some reason, I immediately weakened my legs and knelt before him. He grabbed her leg and put my forehead on her stomach. I can't stand it if I have to lose him. I need it for my life.

Pov Shilla.

A moment ago, Max said words that he had come out of nowhere. Makes me feel sad about all those words. There was a bit of happiness that came out of nowhere. And now he knelt down on me to apologize. Unknowingly my tears fell down my cheeks.

True what my mother-in-law said. Max is the man in charge. It may be true that he had a heart for the woman, but that was it. And he prefers to bury those feelings, for the sake of his family's responsibility.

Yeah, I used to ask her why she was always there. I thought it was only because her sister's best friend had once Max told her each family's agreement to look after the woman that I finally understood. Plus this afternoon, his sister also said the same thing.

I do love her.

Her face touched my stomach. He looked up at me. Feels safe and comfortable. I slowly lowered my face and put my lips on hers. At first glance, then looked back into his eyes, trying to find some honesty in there.

"I'm sorry if I open your old wounds ...," I said slowly.

"I'm the one who apologized for everything."

I pulled her to stand up and then I hugged her. I'm pining. A day not hugging her felt like my world would be destroyed.

I don't know if I can describe my current mood. I am obviously sorry for my attitude. Because I should have listened to his explanation first. Not directly indifferent to him. Not the silent action of a thousand languages.

"I'm sorry, huh?" max said once more as he pressed his forehead against my forehead.

I smiled at her behavior like this. Maybe it took me a lot of time to understand the past. To understand the difficulties he faced. And during that process, I want him to keep me company. Stand with me, protect our marriage vows, keep our alley promises together. For now and forever.

Once again our lips intertwine, channeling such deep affection and love. And may it always be like this, until death do us part.

That night Max invited me to dinner together. I thought it was too much. It is a pity for our two children to be abandoned.

"It's okay, just stay. They were not fussy, either" said Tika who at that time wanted to take care of our two children. Makes me feel a little more relieved.

No, not a little. But it was a great relief, as Max finally admitted his mistake with earnestness. Because that's all a woman needs. Maybe men prefer to be recognized, but women prefer to be appreciated.
