According to Nadia's advice, Dave tried tonight to express his intentions. Actually, this afternoon, he will directly express it to his wife. But, suddenly he had an uninvited and unwanted guest.
This afternoon, he had clarified and confirmed the status of Arshila, on Alexa and Ellino. He also asked the two, not to interfere, because they were nothing.
"I was his best friend, before he met you." Alexa at that time, seemed emotional because Dave apparently did not allow them to meet the wife.
"And me, her husband," Desis Dave, "I ask you never to come and interfere in our affairs."
Finally, this afternoon, the security guards, forced the two out. Alexa fights back, while Ellino protects only Alexa, without saying anything.
Dinner was over, an hour ago. Dave approached the wife, who was sitting leaning back, on the bed. The woman, silent, looked up, as if burdened with many thoughts.
"Have you taken your medicine, baby?"
Arshila only sighed, then nodded her head, without turning her head in the slightest. He was actually afraid to face the husband, but the anger and resentment that controlled his heart, made the fear, evaporated just like that.
Dave pulled up a chair, sat down next to his wife, put some distance between them.
"Did you miss your parents?" Dave said in such a soft tone.
Deg.
Arshila turned her head, looking at her husband. He misses his parents, misses him a lot. Why did my husband suddenly say that?
Again, he did not answer. Arshila immediately turned her face away. What if he misses his parents? Is he going to drive her home? Very funny, Inner Arshila.
"I'll take you home tomorrow."
"Be ...really?" Arshila turned her head back, not believing Dave's words.
"I've asked Mr. Yus to prepare for our journey tomorrow."
Arshila was still in disbelief, with all the words of her husband. He kept staring, as Dave got up from his seat. Walk in a big suitcase.
The man opened the closet. Take some of his and his wife's clothes, arrange them in a suitcase
"What do you need on the road, baby?" ask Dave. He wants to prepare the needs of his wife with his own hands.
"I need underwear" replied Arshila hesitantly, mixed in shame.
Dave nodded, smiling. He then took the thing the wife meant, put it in a suitcase.
"For medicine, we'll put it in a bag. So, it's easy to take it. What else do you need?"
"The journey to my village is very far. Maybe, about six hours. I want to bring food and fruit."
Dave smiled, the first time they could have a good chat. Moreover, Arshila looked enthusiastic, accepting her invitation.
Thank goodness!
"I'll ask Lin's mother, prepare her. What else, honey?"
Arshila shook her head. He doesn't need anything anymore. He's excited now. Want to sleep fast, to wake up soon.
For a long time, he had not set foot in his hometown. If estimated, it may be about five or six years. He also misses the home of his parents, although he knows, the house may have been destroyed or owned by someone else.
Suddenly, the clear liquid from Arshila's eye pellet dripped. Sadness comes to me, when I think of her life. He lived a hard life, but at least, he never cried over his condition. He still smiles and thanks, every gift of God.
But, everything changed when, he married Dimas. He cried more often and harbored his grief, alone. When he meets Dave, he thinks things will change and his life will improve. But, quite the opposite. He shed more tears and seemed to want to die.
"I'm sorry" said Arshila, who shed tears, without making her cry.
"About what?" Dave sat on the bed, right in front of his wife. Removing tears, on Arshila's face.
"If only I had never set foot in this place. My life will be fine. I'll never meet Dimas and meet you."
Deg.
Dave immediately carried Arshila in his arms. Landing a kiss in the wife's hair and stroking her back.
He understood, why does Arshila feel regret? His life would have been happy if he had never met her. He could only make her cry and get hurt.
"I'm sorry, Shi. I'm really, sorry."
Arshila continued to cry in her husband's arms. He poured out all his sorrow and longing, which was stored in his heart.
"I hate you. Hix, hyx, hyx. I hate you."
"I'm sorry, I. I'll make amends."
Both of them were in tears. Dave was still hugging Arshila, with a cry that had yet to subside. His heart was broken, at this moment. Arshila cried in front of her, saying, if she hates him.
"I'm sorry, I. Sorry, i!"
Just that sentence, which Dave was able to say. He continued to calm the wife, while landing a kiss many times, pecked Arshila's head.
"This is your son! Why do you doubt it? I hate you, torch, torch, torch." Arshila really, spilled all the burdens of her stored heart.
"Yes, he's our son. Ii'm sorry. He's my son, our son," answered Dave, tightening his arms.
Arshila was crying, sobbing. Dave's panicking. He let go of his embrace and looked at his wife. Arshila's face was filled with tears.
"Honey, baby," panicked Dave. He got rid of the hair, on the face of the wife. "Have, already." Removing tears, then landing a kiss on Arshila's forehead. "I beg you, never mind." Hugged him back tightly.
The drama that somehow ended, what time. Both of them tired of crying, to sleep hugging. Dave hugged his wife from behind.
Downstairs. Rachel has already given orders to Yus sir and Lin's mother. To, prepare for the journey of the child and his son-in-law tomorrow.
Rachel who wanted to accompany him, her daughter-in-law slept. Downplayed his intentions. He continued to stand in front of the room door, watching the husband and wife who were crying. Because the door of the room, not closed, he could hear all the talk of the two of them.
Rachel happily mixed up, seeing her son and daughter-in-law. He hoped that everything would end happily.
After giving instructions, Rachel went back to the room, telling her husband.
"Pa, tomorrow, Dave will drive Arshila home in her hometown."
"Papa would have Tian accompany them and have some people follow them secretly."
"Pa," worried Rachel, looks from her face.
"What's up, baby? They're gonna be fine. Give them time to be together, so that Arshila can see the sincerity of our son."
"I'm scared, what if I get there. Our daughter-in-law changed her mind."
"Ma, Dave will continue with her. Trust in our son. There is Tian who will keep us informed and the people who continue to look after them.
Rachel laid her body. He only felt worried, let alone the relationship of his son and daughter-in-law, had not improved.
