The Unexpected Marriage
CHAPTER 14 - The Middle Way
03.00
Rafka squirms as she feels her body in a tight hug. Slowly his eyes opened, he rubbed his eyes to neutralize his vision.
He saw his wife who was still asleep by hugging him tightly. It's even a little hard to move.
"Wake up" said Rafka slowly stroking Keyla's head.
"Kyla." It can be said this is the first time Rafka mentioned the name Keyla in addition to the marriage contract.
"Hey, wake up." Rafka shook Keyla's body making the woman shocked and immediately sat down. Keyla's breath seemed interrupted by the shock earlier.
"Is there an earthquake?" keyla asked, looking at her husband with an innocent face.
"No, I just woke you up. You're so hard to wake up" replied Rafka, rising from her sleep and walking to the bathroom.
Seeing that Keyla was lying down again, she would go to the bathroom when her husband came out.
A few minutes later, the Sunnah prayer was finished. Rafka opens the holy book of the Qur'an, while Keyla intends to open his face.
"Don't open it first, teach it for a moment" Rafka pinta. Keyla chose to obey and sat down in front of her husband.
"We started from Alfatihah well," continued Rafka.
Keyla seemed nervous, somehow he still remembered how to read the Qur'an correctly. Keyla also began his reading and sure enough he got reprimanded from Rafka many times because of his incorrect reading.
Because of the many wrong readings, Keyla did not even move from Surah Al-fatihah.
"Try reading your prayers," Rafka's pinta makes Keyla tick dead.
"Actually yesterday was done, but I've forgotten." Keyla was ashamed of herself.
"I am your husband, I am your priest. I'll teach you, just ask what makes you doubt, isn't it better to learn than to be quiet and keep making mistakes." Keyla nodded and finished his recitation of the Qur'an. After that he started reciting the prayer and sure enough Rafka reprimanded him a lot.
It did not feel Keyla's eyes were red and watery because they felt embarrassed.
"Why crying?" rafka asked confused to see Keyla who had hiccuped.
"My reading is a lot wrong, my prayers must not be accepted. I'm a sinful man" said Keyla, trying to wipe away her tears.
Hearing that Rafka smiled and stroked Keyla's head.
"You just need to pray and keep trying. May Allah soften your hearts to be able to accept all the lessons of Islam" Rafka said gently.
"I'll buy you a book after work today. As long as I go to work, you can learn to read the Qur'an properly. Can you?"
"Yes, I can." Keyla nodded while removing the remains of her tears.
Very happy to have a husband like Rafka, it feels like Keyla is dreaming.
"Thank God, you gave me a husband who can guide me on your path."

After morning prayers, Keyla was in the kitchen cooking for breakfast.
Rafka has not yet returned from the mosque.
"Assalamualaikum," said Rafka greeting when entering the apartment.
"Wa'alaikumusalam warohmatullahi wabarakatuh, have you returned?" Keyla returned Rafka's greeting and kissed her husband's hand.
"It has. Cook what?" tanya Rafka smelled the aroma of cooking from the kitchen.
"Ah, fried rice."
"You want help?" ask Rafka. Keyla shook her head.
"Your work clothes are on the bed" Keyla said back to the kitchen.
"You prepared it?" tanya Rafka chuckled.
"Yes." Yeah."
Rafka went straight into the room and undressed the clothes he used for prayer. He went to the bathroom because his stomach hurt.
Breakfast was ready and now just waiting for dinner. Rafka and Keyla are at the dinner table.
"How's it?" keyla asked looking at her husband who had just put a spoonful of fried rice in his mouth.
"Enak" replied Rafka while nodding to make Keyla happy.
"Spend well," said Keyla.
"Yes." Yeah."
After finishing breakfast, Rafka went back into the room to pick up her briefcase while Keyla rushed to wash the dishes they had eaten earlier.
"I'm going, yeah" Rafka said out of the room.
"Wait," stop Keyla from cleaning her hands and walk over to her husband.
"Can't kiss yet" Keyla continued, holding her husband's hand and then peeling Rafka's back.
"Be careful, my husband. Don't forget to eat, don't forget to pray. Don't smile at other women, don't talk to other women."
Cup.
A brief kiss on Rafka's lips made the man freeze.
"You always look good, how many women have a crush? They were good women while I was," Keyla said, lowering her voice.
"I don't want you to like any of them, if you like them and turn to me how?" lirih Keyla.
Rafka seemed to laugh a little breaking the awkwardness. "I will not turn away, a real man will not turn to another woman because he knows what other women have must be owned by his woman." Rafka stroked Keyla's head gently.
"Eum, moved. Where's the watch?"
Rafka shows her wrist wearing Keyla's watch.
"Ah, pleased." Keyla hugged her husband again.
"Yes, be careful. See you later in the afternoon" Keyla waved her hand.
"See you later, assalamualaikum."
"Wa'alaikumusalam warohmatullahi wabarakatuh."
Rafka also came out of the apartment while holding her lips, there was a strange taste that she had never felt.
"That's aggressive," Rafka muttered with a small laugh.
