It was such a beautiful afternoon. Alex and Sophia combine love in a burning passion. The sound of the birds whistling and the afternoon wind blowing slowly made the atmosphere even warmer. The sun that began to return to its nest made the sky reddish orange. The ceiling invites everyone to return home to gather with their beloved family. Alex and Sophia are still reluctant to switch from their romantic activities. The bed became the inevitable arena of wrestling. The threads scattered on the floor left by the owner who is still engrossed in the cradle.
One hour they had released calories that dripped into a sweat that flowed all over the body. To wash away every pleasure they feel. The melodious sound of birds whistling is no less melodious than two people who are still in that special task. Alex does not need to hone his abilities, it gets sharper when with Sophia who is the material to be cut at will.
When they were tired, they lay in bed. Alex enveloped his wife's beautiful body. Get in his deck.
"Honey thank you, my spirit is back" said Alex.
"What's the problem?" ask Sophia.
"You don't know yet?" ask Alex.
Sophia shakes. Since returning from office, Sophia has not seen social media. Sophia is not a person who likes to wrestle with her dress. He prefers physical activities such as watering plants, reading books, cooking new recipes, planting crops and more. Only occasionally see the news on social media. It is also more business. Since her illness, Sophia has been closer to Allah SWT. He knew whether tomorrow or the day after she might return, Sophia tried to multiply her practice before returning to the creator.
As Sophia did not know, Alex told her what had happened this afternoon. Perhaps by sharing his beloved wife's story can reduce the burden on her heart that tired and tight filled her chest.
"Astagfirullah" said Sophia. She did not expect her husband was getting a disaster that came suddenly without permission. Like lightning striking in the day.
"Patience to you, may Allah provide a way to solve this problem" Sophia said, hugging her husband.
"Yes dear, but now I'm not afraid to face every problem because I have an embossment" said Alex.
"What's embossing?" ask Sophia curious.
"God's embossment and you're dear" said Alex, kissing Sophia's forehead.
There was nothing to make Alex excited besides Sophia and especially Allah the Creator the Ruler of all things. Alex used to have nothing precious in his life but now there is Sophia who is the most valuable in his life.
"Mas I'm gonna help you solve your problems, what do you need?" ask Sophia.
Alex is closer. Spiced with soft and fragrant Sophia cheeks.
"I just need you by my side, that's more than anything" Alex said.
"Let me help" said Sophia.
"No, it's a complicated matter and it concerns a lot of people, I want you at home when I get home, to be tired and tired I'm always treated" Alex said.
"Yes, I will always be home when you come home" Sophia replied. He is so happy to be the person who is important to Alex and needed him. Light his way to God's heaven.
"I've always dreamed that we'd have children and grow old together. Spending the rest of our lives together until death separates us" Alex said.
Sophia fell silent. Subdues head. Remembering disease. There may not be much time left. But Sophia will be by Alex's side and will never leave him. Until his last breath.
"Laper dear," said Alex.
Sophia raised her head. She remembers her husband has not eaten. Alex had asked for a kiss before his stomach filled up, stopping the chants that shook his bowels.
"I cooked Mas's favorite sambal" Sophia said.
"Wear tempeh and fried chicken?" ask Alex. He started to like any food. Fried tempeh so the menu should be on the table. Sophia was the one who introduced Alex to the fried tempe that was Alex anti but it is now his favorite food.
Sophia nodded.
"I want the leaves you ate yesterday, baby" Alex said.
"That's not Mas leaf, basil," Sophia said.
"Yes that, although it tastes bad but smells good" said Alex.
Alex and Sophia shower together. Wearing clothes. Praying magrib, dhikir and teaching. As usual Sophia taught Alex to read Iqra. But this time Alex has made a lot of progress. After that they went out of the room. Come downstairs to dinner together. In the dining room there was no one sitting in a chair like usual.
"Mother and Claudya have an event outside Mas, if Gavin hasn't come home yet" Sophia said.
"Grandfather ..," said Alex slowly.
"Did I go upstairs, did I call Grandpa?" ask Sophia.
"No, let me just love, you wait here" replied Alex.
Sophia nodded. He knew maybe Alex had to see his grandfather in person. There are things that both of them need to talk about.
Alex went upstairs. Walk to Grandpa David's room. Slowly despite the doubts in his heart, Alex must meet his grandfather. This problem cannot be simply addressed by silence. Alex stood at the door. I want to knock but doubt. Gathering his courage to face his grandfather.
"Alex!" call Grandpa David who just came. Stand behind Alex.
Alex turned around. Saw Grandpa David in front of him. Alex who was embarrassed tried to strengthen himself to face grandfather whatever it was.
"Sir," said Alex.
"We're talking inside" said Grandpa David.
Alex nodded.
They both went into the room. Sitting on the opposite sofa. Alex is silent. Confused where to start. He felt that his grandfather must have known what was going on. His grandfather had not said anything. Same with Alex.
"Grandfather I want to talk about ...," said Alex.
"Company" said Grandpa David.
Alex fell silent. A little lower his head down. In fact he was very embarrassed, already disappointing the trust placed in him.
"I already knew about the matter" Grandpa David said.
"I'm sorry, my mother, I let grandfather down" Alex said.
Grandpa David was silent. His eyes were cold. Makes Alex more guilty. The company Alex now leads is a gift from her grandmother. From the savings his grandmother used to start her business. And now it's a giant company.
"I'm sorry." Alex said sorry again. He really felt negligent and failed in carrying out his duties as a leader.
"You don't have to apologize Alex, it's not your fault" said Grandpa David.
Alex surprised. He thought his grandfather would be angry with him but he wasn't.
"But what if our company goes bankrupt because of this problem?" ask Alex. He is worried about the future of his company. With that case the good name of his company will fall. Consumer confidence will disappear. Stock investors will also retreat. The company will lose. Gradually, go out of bed unnoticed.
"The treasure that we have is just a deposit, if indeed God wants to take it back, just let it go" said Grandpa David.
"God willing, great grandfather, Alex has a lot to learn again to be like grandfather," said Alex.
"You can be so much better than Alex, there's a sholeha wife who always accompanies your steps" said Grandpa David.
"Yes, thank you" said Alex.
"Yes, Grandpa is hungry, let's go down!" said Grandpa David.
Alex nodded. She's relieved. At least I talked to Grandpa David. Alex doesn't have to worry about anything anymore. Stay focused on solving the problem.
