The Voice of the Husband
Story
The sound of the ashar adhan was heard from the cellphone alarm of a couple who were sleeping in bed with the little girl in their arms.
Nara wriggled softly, turning her body towards Naren who was still asleep with her hands tightly hugging him. No matter what, Nara kissed the lips slowly before finally getting up.
Having a kiss from his wife, Naren awakens. Feeling fit after sleeping and getting a bonus, Naren felt excited in the afternoon. He got up from the bed following Nara who was in the bathroom. Ablutions.
The alarm that had sounded, was now inaudible to fill the room. It is precisely the melodious voice of the lips that was getting a sensitive kiss that is filling the silence of the room with the recitation of prayers.
"Assalamualaikum..."
Nara kissed Naren's hand as usual after the prayer. They then prayed with the priest who was none other than Naren himself who led the prayer. After praying, the two sat on the sofa near the hotel window.
Accompanied by the juice they ordered this afternoon, the two enjoyed the afternoon with a sense of happiness.
"Ra, actually I want to tell you the same story." The topic of conversation began again after drinking juice which is now half a glass.
Nara put down her glass of juice, looking at the husband whose face was radiated by the sun. "News aja. I'll be horrified" he replied.
Preparing to start the story, Naren took a deep breath. Throw it away slowly to neutralize the turbulent feeling present in the chest.
Afterwards, Naren begins to tell him about a past that is actually a wound for him.
"Actually, Gio's my brother, Ra." Started.
Instantly the body felt weak, the spirit that had been emanated was clear, now gone already. But with a heavy heart, Nara kept asking about a secret that would be very influential in her life. "Brother? But why don't I ever see you guys together?"
"First, my mother's father had a fight when I was five months old. As a result, the mother chose to leave the house to calm her mind and heart. I went to my grandmother's house at the time. At home leaves dad with ART. Frustrated dad, going to a bar to see his friends there."
"Dad drunk, he came home with his friend. At exactly twelve in the evening, ART helped bring Dad up to the room. The reason is, the ART became a victim of father's drunk. She was raped until she became pregnant."
"As the father and mother's household began to improve, the shocking news left everything in ruins. ART said she was pregnant after being raped by her father while drunk. By the way, I told my father to take responsibility. But on one condition. After the baby is born, the ART should go away from home as far as possible. Of course by bringing the baby too."
"Dad has prepared the house, money and everything to live by the ART. ART is nothing to worry about. Because the father will finance their lives and their children to adulthood later. Even now my father still finances his life."
"So, the baby conceived by ART is Gio?" ask Nara after the story is over.
Naren nodded slowly. His hand rubbed the bruised face slowly and carefully. Then looked towards the woman who was in disbelief mode who was sitting next to her.
Silent. After the story was over, silence began to take over the atmosphere. Nara and Naren drift in each other's minds.
