Extra Part 4 Attendance

Arsen awoke at dawn, he felt numbness in his left arm. Slowly he felt the nightstand next to his bed and then turned on the sleeping lights. A moment after the lights were on he saw Qanita who was still sleeping with her arms cushioned.

He felt unbearable to wake his wife, after the first night they had a husband and wife relationship. Slowly Arsen pulled the arm that Qanita had made a pillow. But not yet had her arms perfectly retracted, Qanita had already opened her eyes and looked up at Arsen.

“Available ?” Arsen asked and quickly pulled his arm then replaced it with a pillow.

Qanita just nodded slowly while still holding back the drowsiness and would turn back to Arsen. But even the screech that came out of his mouth.

“Aaaauww.” He slowly closed his eyes to relieve the pain in the lower part of his body.

“Why ?” Ask Arsen who is already sitting down.

Qanita only shook her head slowly but her face was already flushed red like a boiled crab.

Looking at the wife's face, Arsen only smiled faintly and then stroked her head. “Sorry well, it has made you sick.” Sincerely speaking.

“Hmm.” Qanita just cleared her throat and pulled the blanket to further wrap her undressed body.

“Mandi first gih.” Said Arsen and looked at his phone screen.

Again Qanita shook her head “kamu aja first. I still have a hard time moving.”

“Iya udah.” Arsen then kissed Qanita on the forehead and headed for the bathroom.

Qanita, who was still lying on the bed, slowly sat her body. It felt all his body ache and pain especially in the lower part of his body.

“A sick.” His brother to himself and grabbed the clothes that were still lying beside the bed.

He got up from the bed to turn on the room lights. Not how long the room lights were on, and the first thing to see was a bed wrapped in bed linen with the dominant color of cream showing blood spots.

“Huuh !” small grunt. “The bodies already have to replace the bed sheet.” He muttered and opened the closet to look for spare bed linen. Luckily some toiletries and others were provided by his family.

Although still enduring the pain she tried to change the bed sheet and prepare the clothes that will be used by her husband to congregate to this Subuh mosque. Shortly after everything a bathroom door opened and look Arsen who was fresher after doing a bath.

“Udah Replaced ?” Arsen asked who saw Qanita lying on the bed with her legs dangling from the floor.

“Hmmm.” Qanita answered briefly while closing her eyes.

“Ya is sleeping again.” Saran Arsen, was wearing the clothes that had been prepared by Qanita.

“Ntar keblasan.” Qanita answered and lifted her body to go to the bathroom.

Arsen who could not bear to see Qanita walking like a Snail by reflex he carried his wife's body.

“I can walk by myself.” Qanita said as she thrashed in an Arsen sling.

“Udah, I don't have the heart to see you road like a Snail.” The more the carrier to get into the bathroom.

After taking Qanita down, Arsen immediately baranjak from the bathroom and closed the door from the outside. Qanita began to cleanse herself, and like most other women it took longer than men to perform the ritual bath. Until Arsen will leave for the mosquepun Qanita has not finished his bath. Arsen was forced to leave when Qanita was still in the bathroom.

Tok tok…

“Qa, I mosque yes.” Say Arsen and get out of the room immediately.

“Yes, be careful.” Qanita from the bathroom.

Arsen returned from the mosque a little later than usual, because he had to get acquainted with his neighbors.

“Assalamualaikum.” Salam Arsen and see Qanita reading the Qur’an in the front room of the TV.

“Waalaikumussalam.” Qanita answered and finished her reading.

Her feet stepped towards Qanita who was still sitting on the sofa. Qanita returned Arsen's gaze with a big smile and again displayed the bends on her cheeks.

“Eh briefly I took cookies last night.” Qanita said and got up from her seat.

Arsen simply nodded without answering Qanita. When Qanita is preparing cookies. Suddenly his phone rang and displayed a new number calling him.

“New number ?” Ask Arsen to himself.

“Who Io ?” Qanita asked Arsen.

“No idea, new number. I picked up ya.” Arsen said and immediately idled the call without the approval of Qanita. While Qanita only shook her head to see her husband's behavior.

“Hallo. Good morning.” Arsen said coldly to the person behind the phone.

Hmm, yes. Answer someone from the other end of the phone.

“This is who ?” Ask back.

Possessive husband. This is papa Ar. Answer Saad from the other end of the phone.

“Loh, kok papa call number Qanita. Can you call Arsen.” Arsen said with annoyance.

Why is it ? Papa called you earlier but no one answered. Saad Said.

“Oh in her HP room Arsen pa. What's up pa ?” Asked Arsen with a chuckle.

A client wants to see you this morning. As usual, Andri will pick you up. Saad Said.

“Gosh pa, can not be represented papa or Andri ?” Asked Arsen in an upset tone.

Papa told you that, but he still wants to see you. Yes, you met him not until the afternoon. Oh, the day after tomorrow, we'll hold a tasyakuran in your house. Your mother and Maya agreed. Obviously Saad was at length from the end of the phone.

“Hmm.” Only Deheman came out of Arsen's mouth.

Saad realized his son's frustration, and immediately ended the phone call. Assalamualaikum says.

“Waalaikumussalam.” Answer Arsen.

Qanita walked towards Arsen with a tray on top of her with a cup of warm tea and a plate of cookies.

“Why ?” Qanita asked and landed her body on the sofa.

“Papa asks to meet client. The client wants to meet me, this morning.” Say Arsen and drink tea.

“Ya, just meet first.” Qanita advised by looking at her husband gently.

“But we want to shop today.” Said Arsen who was getting upset.

“Iya, it can be afternoon anyway.” Qanita's Advice.

“Iya if so. I'm getting ready first. Oh yes, the day after tasyakuran said papa earlier.” He said to his wife and walked into the room.

“Iya know, I told you.” Said Qanita who walked behind her husband.

“Qa, already ?” Arsen asked Qanita who was still busy drying her hair using a hairdryer.

“Not yet Io, anyways just stamped too.” Qanita grumbled at Arsen who asked her to get in touch first.

“Iya sorry, his name is also not resistant.” Arsen said and smiled broadly.

“Basic pervert.” Cybic Qanita and raise one corner of her lips.

“Biarina. Same wife herself.” Bela Arsen is now tidying up her suit.

After drying her hair, Qanita switched on her face which will be applied thin makeup to make the appearance not too flashy. Once felt enough Qanita started to use her hijab. It turned out that the activity diverted Arsen's attention from the screen of his phone that had checked the company's shares.

“You've always been beautiful.” Arsen said to Qanita who was standing in front of the mirror.

“Know it. Don't tell me.” Said Qanita who was still busy to tidy up her hijab.

Then Arsen hugged Qanita from behind and stuck her chin on Qanita's shoulders. While his wife is still busy with her hijab while paying attention to her makeup, she is afraid that something is not neat.

“Io ?” Call Qanita.

“Hmm.” replied Arsen who still hugged him tightly, while smiling intently.

Qanita who realized the meaning of her husband, immediately stomped Arsen's hand from her stomach and turned “Nggak.” Reject Qanita and walk away from Arsen in the room.

Arsen only snorted a little and followed his wife to Zacky's wedding.

Long enough Arsen drive, in addition to the place is quite far too because several times stuck in traffic. Many times also Qanita grunted in annoyance, especially when she saw her husband.

“Iya yes sorry, I was wrong. Do you want your husband to mess around?” Asked Arsen with a seductive smile.

Qanita just stared flatly without wanting to answer her husband's question.

Shortly after that the car driven by Arsen had arrived at the parking lot of one of the Royyan family's hotels. They immediately went down and entered the building hand in hand.

“Ar.” Call Royyan when you see Arsen who just entered the hotel building.

Sontak Arsen and Qanita see who is calling, and it turns out Royyan is followed by a beautiful girl behind him.

“Yan, new nyampe ?” Ask Arsen to Royyan.

“Iya, pick him up first.” Answer Royyan. After that there was a girl who was hiding behind Royyan.

“Faizaaaa.” Call Qanita with a little scream.

“Assalamualaikum Anita, brother Arsen.” Greetings Faiza to both.

Arsen and Qanita looking at each other and smiling “Waalaikumussalam.” Reply both.

“Ayo Zaa.” Take Qanita and grab Faiza's hand then step in first leaving the two men with them.

“You new tumben coming at this hour ? Not usually late.” Asked Royyan who walked hand in hand with Arsen.

“Regular Yan.” Arsen answered with intent. “Abis it, she's pissed.” He went back and remembered how his wife had been.

Royyan just stared cynically but did not want to say anything.

***

“Zac, congratulations.” Royyan greeted Zacky and they threw each other a big smile.

“Who ?” Ask Zacky who saw Faiza behind Royyan.

“Calon.” Say Royyan and switch to Kei.

Then Faiza greeted Zacky by cupping her hands together. The same thing was shown by Qanita. But with Kei looks to be greeting and cuddling like a friend.

“Eh, let's take a photo.” Kei said when he saw the four will pass from the guarantee.

They immediately set their position and smiled at the camera. Especially Zacky and Kei who look happy on their day.

The next day Qanita is seen preparing breakfast for Arsen and is assisted by Bi Ijah who becomes their housekeeper, as both decide to keep working. But Qanita has reduced her working hours considering she is already a wife.

Qanita who was slicing onions suddenly felt nauseous and immediately ran to the bathroom behind the kitchen. He still feels nauseous even when the contents of his stomach have been drained. He did not know the cause, but strangely when he imagined the taste of warm matcha that he often drank again he felt nauseous and vomiting.

“Mbak, if you are not feeling well. Better get some rest. Maybe because last night came home too late so catch a cold.” Said Bi Ijah came to Qanita without any suspicion.

While Qanita felt something strange on her, because all this time even though she was in the balcony of the house at night she had never felt the cold let alone until nausea like this.

“Bi, please make me a latte as usual drunk mas Aye. If you have please call me.” He said to Bi Ijah and passed towards the room.

“Good mbak.” Answer bi Ijah.

Arriving in the room he saw Arsen was preparing to wear the shirt he had prepared earlier. Regardless of the husband, Qanita immediately passed to the bathroom. But when he got to the bathroom he forgot something and asked Arsen to take it.

“Io, can you please get me the pharmacy plastic on the bedside table ?” Said to the husband.

“Iya briefly.” Reply Arsen who is still tidying up his shirt, then take what was asked by Qanita.

After receiving the plastic given by Arsen he immediately unwrapped some flat items. Apparently the plastic contains several testpack with different brands. He deliberately bought it a few days ago because he felt it was too late for the moon. Immediately he used the item according to the instructions that have been printed on it.

After waiting for a while, Qanita's expression seemed illegible, she was so happy at once. Seen on the testpack there are two lines, the sign +, and the sign love.

Quickly Qanita opens the bathroom door and yells at her husband “Ioooo.” Call her with a big smile and a radiant face.

“Just Qa. Why ? Don't scream.” Arsen said while stroking his chest.

Qanita showed the object to Arsen and her face was still adorned with a wider smile.

Arsen was shocked to see the thing in his wife's hand. “Ka you, you are pregnant Qa ?” Arsen said with a confused face and looked at his wife's bead to look for lies but was not found.

“Hee’em.” Said Qanita who was still smiling widely and nodded her head.

“Ya Allah Qa. Thank God.” Arsen immediately hugged his wife and without realizing it a drop of clear liquid came out from the tip of his eye. Qanita returned her husband's embrace with no less tight.

Arsen is seen kneeling and speaking in front of the wife's stomach “Assalamualaikum his son Arsen. Mama's good to you, son. Papa can't wait for your presence in the middle of us son said Arsen and kissed his wife's flat stomach.

Qanita just smiled sweetly and gently rubbed Arsen's head.
