Between Me and Your Mother
A Reason

Reyhan is unable to puckle. The words of the wife are certainly able to make himself slapped on the problems he has just created.

"honey, I'm sorry"

"do you feel guilty?" sahut Melati without looking at Reyhan

"honey, I'm really sorry, I was wrong, I'm sorry. I don't have a fuss about hurting you"

"but I'm already sick"

"sorry baby, but you have to listen to my explanation first. This isn't all what you think it is"

"if things aren't as I thought, then what's the real thing?"

"i'm in the trap. Prilly put something in my drink so I can't control myself"

"including your lust?"

Reyhan was silent

"hhh. mas, mas, if you don't have any taste in that woman, you won't be easily tempted just by looking at her beauty"

"but I could have sworn that I didn't have any taste in him"

"if you have no taste, why can't you resist your love? you even used a chance with him to finish your passion"

"no baby, you're wrong! I never wanted that chance. Didn't I tell you that I was under the influence of the curse drug. Besides, if I'm aware, why do I have to touch her? I have a perfect wife like you. Can't I make love to you whenever and wherever I want? is it, baby? try to think about this?"

"don't suppose if reality says otherwise. Do you know why I touched that woman?"

"i__"

"because you're thirsty for it. You're high on desire because you rarely touch me. You rarely make love to me. Do you know mas? I as a wife also want to feel what it feels like to be loved every day. I also want to be in the house and in the door every night. I even want to be united when I'm on our bed. Butwhat? What the hell are you doing? You're ignoring me too much as a wife. You always ignored my wishes. You're too insensitive as a man and a husband. You've also always let me down because you've listened too much to my mother's wishes"

"isn't you the one I've always preferred?"

"yes, that's because you feel guilty about me. You're against all my wishes because you assume that by doing all those things, you're assuming that you can atone for all your guilt for me. Aren't you?"

Reyhan was again silent, until Melatipun can continue the uneg and resentment in his heart that had been hidden and unknown to her husband.

"Mas, don't you think? if you had listened more to my wishes and had not brought the woman home, none of this would have happened. There will be no harm or hurt between us"

"forgive me dear"

"what's your apology for bringing things back to the way they were?"

Reyhan back silenced.it seems all his words can be reversed by his wife. Even all the reasons and explanations instead boomerang for himself.

"if there's nothing else to talk about, please step out of this room, because I want to continue to be in order"

"no baby, no! don't walk away from me. Please don't leave me! I love you so much" Reyhan exclaimed as he hugged Melati's leg tightly

Yes, Reyhan really lowered all his ego and prestige as a man. He doesn't even care if he's considered a beggar of love.

The most important thing for him right now is how to maintain his relationship with Melati to remain intact despite the storm and the huge waves crashing at him this second.

"get off! don't be like this! aren't you ashamed to kneel to me?"

"why should I be ashamed? I'll do anything for you, baby. Don't just kneel, kiss your feet I'll do it if you ask"

"don't need you to do that. Don't you know what my principle is in a relationship?"

"i know. I know very well. But I beg you, forgive me. I love you, baby. So very much love you"

"do you have any reason to make me survive?"

"i'll do whatever you want"

"are you sure of what you say?"

"very sure"

"but, she's with mom right now"

"what if she's with mom? you don't dare to throw him out?"

"i dare. But it is raining outside. There was also a lot of lightning. How about getting kicked off the morning beaok"

"alright, if you want to kick him out of the morning beaok, but I'll leave tonight"

Melati immediately closed her suitcase, she had even grabbed her thick jacket and wanted to wear it. But he had not been able to wear it, Reyhan had already stopped the activities of Melati.

"okay, okay, I'm gonna kick him out now"

Reyhan stepped out while pulling Melati's hand. But as fast as lightning Melati immediately rejected her husband's hand. He would rather walk in the back than have to be side by side with the man who again scratches his wound.

Reyhan who knows the attitude of Melatipun finally resigned. He did not force his desire to hold the wife's hand. His current goal is just to immediately carry out his wife's requirements so that his wife stays by his side and forgives him.

"You! get out of here right now!" reyhan exclaimed as he groped Prilly's hand sitting on the guest bedroom bed

"Rayyhan! what maxutmu? why are you telling me to leave?"

"yes, I kicked you out of my house tonight"

"don't want Rey, I don't want to go home! I want to be here with you"

"but I wouldn't be with a woman like you!get out!" reyhan jolted with a loud and frightening tone

"Rayyhan! what are you doing?" Shouted the mother who had just come because of the noise in the guest room

"mom shut up! this is my household business! I want this woman to go now"

"what? you're throwing Prilly out tonight? Rey! don't you see that outside there's a rainstorm and lightning?"

"i don't care mom"

"Rey! where is your conscience? Prilly's pregnant with your son! why did you throw him out?"

"do you know, this must be because of him" (staring at Melati who was standing on the doorstep) "yes, right?"

"don't blame my wife Mom! I still chose my wife over this woman"

While Melati who was stared at sharply by the in-laws could only keep quiet and smile thinly without taking her eyes off.

Not wanting to take a headache, Reyhan immediately dragged Prilly out of his house. He really strengthens his heart to be firm even though his conscience says otherwise.

"Rey, you're so mean!" said Prilly, who's out the door. The woman even stared intently at Melati who was seen waving at her.

watch out!

Eventually, Prilly left the house. The mother also could not help him because the door lock of the house was held by Reyhan.

"honey, I've fulfilled your wish, you must keep your word, do you forgive me?"

"let's take a break"

Reyhan smiled happily as he saw Melati lying on their bed. He immediately followed Melati and lay down while holding his wife's small body.

"sleep" said Melati, lowering her husband's hand, which was wrapped around her stomach. I don't know why she still feels disgusted to be close to her husband.

Although a little disappointed, Reyhan can breathe a sigh of relief when his wife no longer disputed his mistake earlier. He immediately fell asleep while hugging the bolster pillow that Jasmine placed between them.

Mas Reyhan's..

Melati wiped the tears that just dripped on her smooth cheeks then she closed her eyes again.
