Wife's Resilience
KHI 03'S
"Sorry deck, mas late."
Bagas came to pick Rena up.
"It's okay, it's not my fault either."
"You must have waited a long time yes, I was praying first after reading a message from you."
"Yes, it's okay."
Rena's smile expands on her lips.
"How about we get some food first. I'm hungry, because I haven't eaten."
"By, I'm hungry too."
They ride motorcycles leaving the boutique.
Find a comfortable place to eat according to them.
"The gas stops."
Bagas stopped the speed of his motorcycle.
"We ate there, yeah."
Rena pointed at the food stall across the street.
Although on the roadside, the shop looks clean and many buyers.
They headed for the stall that Rena showed.
Rena ordered food. Bagas was looking for a seat.
They talked while waiting for the food to come.
"Ren, I want to buy a car."
"Haa, what's mas."
"Car, I want to buy a car. But a used car. So it's not expensive."
Rena just silently looked at the table without answering the words of Bagas.
"It's raining season soon, where I work far enough."
"But we want a pregnancy program."
"Yes, I know. We're still in the pregnancy program. But also buy a car. I'll make a purchase from the office. So my salary will be cut every month. It's not like our savings are still there."
"Indeed, cars are expensive. Does the office want to bear first."
"Try asking first."
"It's up to you" said Rena smiling.
"Thank you, yeah.."
Bagas smiled as he stroked Rena's hand.
The food they ordered finally came.
With pleasure they eat the food presented at their front desk.
After the meal was over they decided to go to a nearby park.
They sat in a chair and looked around them.
Immediately Rena's gaze was fixed on a pregnant woman who was sitting alone on a garden chair while stroking her stomach.Not long after came a man approaching her with a bag of crackles in his hand. The woman's smile expanded, her outstretched hand picking up the bag of crackles proffered at her. Looks so happy. The man stroked the belly of the woman beside him gently.
B**what happy they are. If only that woman were me. Must be Bagas is also the same as the man, so considerate, maybe even more.
When will I feel something like that.
Yes All the grace is your favor to us. Don't let my heart go on like this.
Rena's tears were dripping down her cheeks. He rubbed it immediately. She looked at her head looking at her husband. I don't know what's on Rena's mind right now.
afraid to leave Bagas or afraid of being disappointed in himself.
Suddenly, Rena hugged her husband. Bagas was shocked.
"What's wrong?" ask Bagas while stroking Rena's hair.
"Leave it like this for a minute."
"Old is okay too. Let's just go home. At home." joked Bagas
"Mas,,," whined Rena while pinching Bagas' waist.
The one in the pinch just laughed softly.
Actually Bagas knew what Rena was feeling.
He also noticed as Rena kept looking at one of the chairs in the garden. But Bagas was silent. Pretending to play his phone.
He did not want to add to the pain in his wife's heart.
Bagas let Rena hug him. She gently rubbed Rena's hair.
Bagas also felt the same way with Rena.
But he's conscious. As a man, he must be stronger.
She knew Rena often cried herself and pretended to be a strong woman in front of a lot of people. And Bagas was silent.
Silence does not mean not caring.
Silence does not mean not to feel heartache when you see a woman loved by him crying in silence.
He just didn't want Rena getting into his guilt.
"We go home Ren. tomorrow we work, if it's too late you're afraid you'll be tired."
"Yes, um,,"
Rena took off her husband's embrace.
They're heading for the motorcycle parking lot.
On the way home, there was no conversation between them. Rena hugged her husband's waist from behind. Until they finally got home.
