Between Two Hearts
Husband Attention 2

At 15:00

As he said, at three in the afternoon Jiho came home. He took a shower and got ready to wear a jacket.

"It's going first, yeah..."

"Lho, isn't she eating first?"

"Not to darling. If you want to eat, just eat first...?"

"Ooh yeah, be careful on the road."

"Yes, definitely. You are also careful. Lock the door tightly. If Aa's not home yet, don't open the door for anyone, okay?"

"Good, A."

Jiho hugged Tiara. He stared at her for a long time, not knowing what she was thinking. But a moment later he fondled Tiara's lips.

"Dear you, baby" he whispered in Tiara's ear, making her heart flutter.

"A good-bye, yes" he continued. The girl nodded slowly, although it felt like she still wanted to be alone with her husband.

Jiho is still on his way to deliver his passengers to his destination.

"Udah arrived, sir.." said Jiho while stopping the speed of the motor.

"Yes mas. This is the fare yes, thank you.." said the passenger.

"Alright sir, thank you again," Jiho replied kindly.

"It seems like you can't go home yet, it's too late, just go to the cafe" Jiho told himself. He glanced at the clock that was circular in his hand, the time showed at 19:14 WIB.

He rode his motorbike quickly towards the 'angkringan' cafe where he worked.

Arriving at the cafe...

"You just came Jiho?" ask Rania who approached the man.

"Hmmm.." replied Jiho lazily. He was so lazy to treat that girl. She is beautiful, she is also kind to him. But Jiho's heart was already imprinted for Tiara, nothing else. Only Tiara he loved.

"You haven't eaten yet, have you? This was I had time to buy this" added Rania again while offering food that had been bought specifically for the pot.

"No need for Rania."

"It is not good to refuse sustenance." added Rania again.

"Well, this is what I accept. Thank you, Ran."

"Yes, equally... Let's eat first mumpung boss has not come," said the girl again. She was so thirsty for Jiho's attention, she did whatever it took to get his attention. But unfortunately Jiho remained cold to him.

"Lo why? Looks very agitated?" tegur Yusuf, his co-worker at the cafe.

"Gue's thinking at home,"

"Lo's wife?"

"Yes,"

"Why indeed?"

"So I couldn't say goodbye. Go home ngojek directly here. He will wait until Malem... Hhhhhh"

"Lo too, the newlyweds are left behind..."

"Yee, I've had a long holiday. Not good with the boss,"

"It's a dilemma, too... It should be the newlyweds honeymoon, in Bali cake or where it is romantic.." ledek Yusuf again.

"Haha, what the hell... If you want a beautiful view, my village is also beautiful. Still beautiful, fresh air has not been contaminated by vehicle fumes or factory waste."

"Work, I have nothing in my village. Shame on me if I ride with my in-laws."

"Haha, yes, too. Success bro!" yusuf said again while patting Jiho on the shoulder. "Gue ingetin nih, do not often left behind your wife. Poor him.." he added.

"Hmmm.." replied Jiho.

While at home, Tiara waited anxiously. There was nothing he could do but watch TV. It's so saturated it feels. Until late at night, her husband did not come home. The clock has shown at eleven o'clock in the evening.

'Why hasn't A Jiho come home yet? Did something happen to him?' He began to wonder to himself with worry.

Geck... Geck... Geck...

There was a knocking on the door. "Assalamualaikum..luck this aa, open the door.." Someone's voice from outside. Tiara uncovers the window curtain, to make sure that it is the suaminya who comes. And it turned out to be true.

"Waalaikum salam's... How come I just got home?" tanyanya was worried.

"Aa shower first, baby." Tiara hasn't had time to talk she's already passed to the bathroom.

"You haven't slept?" ask after cleaning yourself and wearing a change of clothes.

"I'm waiting for Aa, why did Aa just come home?" tanya Tiara was full of searching.

"Sorry Aa yes, go home ngojek Aa directly work at the cafe."

"which cafe?"

"angkringan store, the cafe was rame..."

"So... Aa work in three places at once in a day?"

"Yes sometimes. But if ngojek is only a side only, if the workshop is the same Aa ga narik ojek shop."

"Why?" tiara asked with a choked tone. His eyes started to glaze over, so all this time he worked hard like this?

"Oh yes, this." said A Jiho while handing over two hundred thousand bills. "It's today's results, saved yes, this one is specifically for you. Maybe you need something. But for every day, not necessarily Aa income. Depends on how many visitors come. If for daily needs do not need to be thought of, let Aa take responsibility." Obviously attentive again.

"Why is Aa doing all this?" the girl asked back, finally her tears broke. Jiho hugged him, clutched him tightly.

"Aa don't want here you live a lack," he replied, which made his cry even more so.

'So all this time, this kind of life is what he did and he didn't complain in the least? Stupidly I have been wishing for his love!'

"So this is what Aa's been doing all this time?"

"Yes dear... That's why Aa can pay off Dad's debts and can marry you. I told you, I'm not an office worker. Aa's work like this, which is important there is a result and can meet your needs," he explained that makes Tiara's heart feel more guilty.

"I'm sorry, first.if during the city, Aa never told you," he said again.

"It's night, let's go to bed. Don't cry, Aa is happy to marry you" said A Jiho back while wiping tears on his cheeks.

"Are you eating?"

"Here, in the cafe. Have you eaten?"

Tiara nodded.

"Yes, don't be sad anymore. I am used to living like this. Sleep yes. You must be sleepy."

Tiara nodded again. Jiho smiled and showered a gentle and affectionate kiss on Tiara's lips.

Like men in general, it is only natural that Jihopun wanted it. Moreover, they are officially married. But suddenly he stopped. His hands were held by his wife. It seems Tiara is not ready to do so. "Sorry.." said Jiho later, he was a little disappointed. He turned and turned his back to his wife.

"A... Aa why?" ask Tiara. He just kept quiet, "Are you asleep?" ask Tiara again. Silence, still no answer. No, not because he had slept, but he pretended to close his eyes. He was disappointed, perhaps not yet fully Tiara accepted herself back.

'Why him? Why suddenly stop? Is he angry? Is he disappointed?' Tiara began to wonder in her heart as she looked at her husband's back.

'Ah, better, I'm sleeping too. Tomorrow I have to wake up earlier than him.' Tiara murmured again.
