Waiting for Love for Me

86 SPECIAL TASKS

The first night without a husband with her, Alila felt lonely sleeping alone in her room. It has been almost two months, the nights are always warm with the husband's close embrace next to him. But now, he had to sleep hugging the bolster in lieu of Dimas who was in another city.

(It hasn't been a night yet, but I've missed the warmth of your body a lot, Dim.).

With the same sense of loneliness and longing, in another city Dimas was laying his body on the bed in his inn room. Moreover, he had just discovered something that made him miss his beloved wife even more.

He took his wife's thin nightgown and took it to bed, while inside he kept it back in the suitcase. He was afraid that his mind would grow wild if he constantly looked at it.

(What do you think of when you include this one of yours among my clothes, Al?)

He smiled to himself imagining Alila's behavior. While his left hand continued to clasp Alila's clothes, Dimas's right hand grabbed his phone lying not far from his body.

Staring at the wallpaper with the appearance of their wedding photos, he widened his smile even more. Then he made a video call with his wife which was immediately received by Alila.

Without asking each other, the two immediately put earphones in their ears so that they can be clearer and feel closer to the voice of their partner.

"Night, Dim..."

"Night, darling..."

The two pairs of eyes stared at each other in silence. A shady and adorable look, implying a deep longing for each other.

"Not sleepy?" Asked Dimas while continuing to look at the beautiful face that filled his phone screen.

Alila shook her head slowly. He changed his position to lie on his side and then put his phone on a three-legged stand, then put it in front of his face. He arranged it in such a way that half of his body was visible inside the screen.

Seeing him, Dimas followed what Alila did. He used to buy a pair of cell phone supports for them. One was dark blue for her and another was heart red for Alila.

"Is your job there too much, Dim?"

"No. It's normal, Al. It's just that, for this matter we are required to solve it faster, because there are still some other cities that we have to go to next."

"Don't get tired, Dim. Don't forget to eat on time and take time to rest on the sidelines of your work."

Dimas smiled at the words of his wife who always reminded him of many things. All of that made her feel very loved because Alila always paid attention to everything about her.

"Yes, my wife's..." I want her to kiss those tiny lips that keep moving and look so adorable.

After chatting about many things, Dimas only realized there was something different from Alila. He watched his wife's body.

"What's wrong? Why did your gaze become different like that, Dim?"

"Whose clothes are you wearing, Al?"

Getting such a question, Alila only understood and looked towards her own body. His whole face turned blustery.

"This.., I'm wearing my husband's shirt." A grey t-shirt looked loosely covered his body. Then her beautiful eyes looked back at her husband's face on the screen.

"You're cheating, Al."

"cheat? Why me?" Ask Alila.

"You can sleep with my shirt on, but me...? Do I have to wear this to offer my longing to you?" Dimas showed Alila's nightgown which he had held and had not shown on the screen.

After knowing Dimas's intentions, Alila laughed and closed her mouth. Instantly he imagined what would happen to the husband if he wore his sleeping clothes.

"At least there's something I can hug while sleeping, even if it's just your clothes..." Dimas kissed the thin clothes and held them in his chest.

"But still, what I miss is you, not your clothes, baby..." Continue Dimas.

"I miss you too, Dim. I've gotten used to sleeping with you, hugging you and sleeping in the warmth of your body..." Alila looked at her husband's face with sadness. He vented the longing by hugging his roll tighter.

Dimas sees the time sign in the corner of the screen. It's past ten o'clock. Seen earlier, Alila had also yawned a few times with her palm covered.

"Don't hang up. Let it continue like this."

Dimas nodded his head. "Whatever you ask, Al."

"Good night, Dim. Iloveyou..."

"Good night, baby. I love you too..."

They threw smiles at each other and kept staring at each other until Alila started to close her eyes and eventually began to fall asleep.

Dimas smiled at his sleeping wife with a small smile on the corner of his lips.

(Good sleep, Al. Dream beautiful with myself in it. Ilove you.).

Days change, a month has passed. Dimas is still busy with the completion of his work in several nearby cities. In total there are nine cities that Dimas and his team have visited and they have resolved the problem. There are three other cities they have not visited.

For a month, that was, Dimas also helped Mr. Albi to uncover the mastermind behind the destruction of information technology systems that they have designed neatly to support the social project of the community in the form of smart internet access in a number of areas that previously were still limited lack of adequate data communication networks.

Discreetly Dimas managed to gather evidence related to the problems faced by his team. It is not yet known exactly the reason for the group of people to commit system destruction in a project that has gone smoothly before. But it seems that personal problems between employees are one of the strong reasons that encourage the action.

"Dim, send us all the evidence we gathered yesterday. Tomorrow I'll start putting together a accountability report on the matter, because the company leadership has already asked for it."

During the night in their respective rooms, Mr. Albi contacted Dimas through his personal email. During this time Mr. Albi always relied on Dimas' ability to carry out projects that were delegated to his work team, especially in terms of formulation of related communication systems.

"Ready, Sir. Immediately I send it now."

"Please tighten the entire data security system of all the projects we have and will handle. I'm afraid they'll ruin our other projects, too."

"Good, Sir. I will do it. I also ask permission from you to apply a layered security system to all our project data, to anticipate unexpected events like this."

"Just do whatever you think is necessary to follow up. I trust you all."

"Thank you for your trust, sir. I really appreciate it."

Every night, without deciding on a call for Alila until morning, Dimas also did some special tasks from Mr. Albi. He carried his laptop on the bed while continuously monitoring Alila from his phone screen.

She smiled as she occasionally turned her attention to the mobile screen and looked at the face of her beloved woman whom she had always missed all the time.

(You are my encouragement, Al. I will keep trying to give my best for your happiness and our little family.)
