YOUR EYES GAVE ME A SOUL MATE

5. Go away

After the reception at Najwa's house, now the bride in Boyong went to the groom's house to hold a ghostly ngundu event there. Not much different at Najwa's house, Affan's house is now crowded even though it is not as busy as at Najwa's house, because the groom will use catering services when H day arrives.

Affan's house is more luxurious when compared to Najwa's house, because Affan's family is quite located. But Affan's family did not mind his son's choice, because they knew enough of Najwa's character to be kind and simple.

"Honey. Rest, tomorrow we will hold the event ngundu mantu. So we need extra energy to stand up, greet the guests who come."

"Emm." Najwa.

Affan approached his wife and went to lie next to her, playing with Najwa's long and beautiful hair.

"Your hair is long and beautiful. How long have you been making your hair this long?" ask Affan.

"About 3 years. This is what Nana often cuts. Anyway Nana does not like if the length exceeds Nana's waist. Do you like my long hair?" ask Najwa.

"You long want short, as long as it's you, you'll love it." Affan answered while poking Najwa's nose.

"But if you remember, you remember your brother. He used to have one ex, but he's dead."

"Why with her ex?" ask Najwa.

"She has long, beautiful hair just like you. But I think your hair is more beautiful. She likes the girl, especially her hair. Do you know what? he did not allow his girlfriend to cut hair, so often quarrel because of it," Affan said chuckling.

"Yes my. Cook because your hair gets into a fight?"

"don't know. Brother sometimes likes it weird to like something." Answer Affan.

"Is there anything strange that you like and dislike?" ask Najwa.

"She's a cleanliness freak, she's also easily bored. He likes jengkol but doesn't like pete. And oddly enough, if everyone wants to eat, he likes to snack on bananas first. That's if there's him, there's always a banana stock at home."

"Can there be just any bananas?" ask Najwa.

"Just want an ambon banana." Answer Affan.

"It's weird" said Najwa.

"Any right? so if it is at home, the house will be crowded. Because he was so violent. Everyone should be perfect in his eyes."

"Emm..The other one, usually if it's bad mood, he likes to drink hot chocolate," Affan continued.

"Nana was afraid that there was him. What if he doesn't like me?" ask Najwa.

"There's no reason he doesn't like you. My whole family likes you, because you get along easily with other people. After all, you do not have to worry, after my duties I will submit in order to occupy the official house. So we can be independent right there," Affan said.

"really? isn't that gonna be a mas thing?"

"You mean papa's mom?"

"Emm." Najwa.

"Nana was just a daughter-in-law in this house, when did she move? aren't the neighbors here going to gosipin Nana? haven't taken care of in-laws, I've moved."

"Don't mind the neighbors, we don't ask them to eat anyway. Besides at home there is still Ayu who accompanies mama," Affan said.

"alright. Nana just go with the mas," said Najwa.

"Now we are sleeping. Here's the hug," Affan said.

Najwa approaches Affan, spending the night hugging.

A crowded atmosphere filled the residence of Affan's house. Today is the day of the show ngundu mantu at the house. Guests came to congratulate the two brides. At night, Najwa complained because his whole body was sore and sick.

"You want some incandescent?" ask Affan.

"Don't mas. Nana should have been Mas's incandescent, not the other way around. You must be tired too, right? especially tomorrow I want to go" said Najwa.

"No problem. Think of it as a farewell massage," Affan said, chuckling.

Affan massaged Najwa's leg, while talking to his wife.

"How long have you been gone? Nana forgot," asked Najwa.

"Fast week, two weeks at most. After that the officer's in rolling again,"

"No problem. When I get home, I will feel it all. This one," Affan touched Najwa's lips with his index finger.

"This one, and that one," Affan continued, pointing to Najwa's chest and core.

"Why wait for me to come home? if it's just a kiss, Najwa can still give it" said Najwa.

"But Mas wants to be first on our first night. I will be patient when I go home later" Affan said.

"Thank you, mas. I want to be patient" said Najwa.

"Sleep. Tomorrow mas must leave in the morning, mas will be made breakfast by you," Affan said.

"Yes, um." Answer Affan.

Affan and Najwa fall asleep to relieve fatigue, as they welcome the arrival of guests who wish to congratulate them.

Affan kissed Najwa's forehead before they went down to say goodbye. Affan looks handsome and dashing in his striped uniform, while Najwa is neat with teaching clothes.

"Good at home. Wait for it to come back" Affan said.

Grepppp

Najwa goes into Affan's arms. The hug was comfortable for Najwa, but somehow the comfort was not in line with his tears that suddenly poured out.

"Why. Hem?" ask Affan.

"Nana doesn't know, I don't feel like leaving."

"Very normal for newlyweds who do not want to part. I promise, when I get home, we'll honeymoon wherever you want,"

"Really?" ask Najwa.

"of course. Oh yeah brother didn't come home today, probably two more days. If you are not comfortable with his behavior, let it go. You also if you want to go to teach do not have to use angkot, just use a motor matic mas. The red motor, the key chain that has a photo of both of us," Affan said at length.

"You want to go anywhere just ask Ayu to accompany me. Although it's a baffle, but Ayu's a good boy." Affan continued.

"Yes," said Najwa, wiping away the rest of her tears.

"Yes, are we going down yuk?"

"Emm." Najwa.

Najwa and Affan went down the stairs, and had breakfast together before leaving for work.

"Dye. Big brother Najwa, huh? accompany him wherever he wants to be accompanied," Affan said to his only puppet sister.

"Yes, brother." Answer Ayu.

"Oh yeah. From today's motor matic brother, will be taken by Najwa's brother to go teach."

"Yes Brother." Answer Ayu.

"Ma. Remember my message last night, huh?" ask Affan to Intan who is none other than his real mother.

"Yes. You remember, you were careful?" intan.

"Yes ma. Affan will tell you when it's here." Answer Affan.

"Pa," Affan hugged Grace who was none other than his biological father.

"Hearts. Take care of yourself" said Rahmat while patting his son's back.

"Yes Pa. Affan's gone, huh?"

The family's grace waved at Affan, and Najwa was no exception. The sad eyes Affan could see from the beautiful eyes of his wife.
