After Erina's departure, Bayu sighed and then turned to Aisyah. "Can I talk to you for a second?" ask Bayu. It is not worth asking because Bayu did not wait for Aisyah's answer. It's like an order, isn't it.

Inevitably Aisyah followed her husband into the room. In her heart Aisyah could already guess what her husband would talk about.

Bayu was sitting on the bed. While Aisyah prefers in a plastic chair near the window, but close enough to Bayu.

Room room that can be said to be enough, making both of them able to speak rather freely. Yes, even though the house is not on the ceiling. So, the row of tiles up there is still clearly visible.

"What's up, Mom? He said he wanted to talk?" tanya Aisyah started the conversation. Because her husband had just kept his nails quiet.

Bayu raised his face, until his eyes met Aisyah's eyes. He was confused where to start. Hearing Erina's request earlier made her pity as a sister.

"You still have money, Dek?" say Bayu in the end.

"Money," replied Aisyah restrained, "the-certain still exists, Mas. Enough to buy vegetables until next week. Kan, Mas, you know. I'm still paying two weeks away" she continued to watch her husband's hesitant appearance.

"Oh, keep the money donated the rest of this business-that's, aren't you still saving?"

"There, Mas. Just in case, if when paying the contract there is no money, then I use to pay. What's the matter, Si, Mas? Is there an urgent item or need you need?" fishing rod Aisyah, because Bayu did not immediately express his meaning.

"Ah, that. Not really an urgent need. It's just ..." Bayu complained to his nails. The more confused just to see the plain face of Aisyah.

"Just?" reset Aisyah.

"I'm sure you knew about Erina who liked the bag you were wearing." Bayu glanced at his wife's bag placed on the table. Next to Aisyah. He felt the bag he used to see in the condition. However, only certain people have it.

Aisyah did not reply, but just a slow nod in response. As expected of Aisha. Bayu did want to mention the bag that Aisyah had talked about since.

"Your bags, how much do they cost, anyway?"

"This ... costs about three hundred thousand, Mas." Aisyah smiled slightly. He used to think about buying that bag. But not just buy it, there is a more important need that he must first. I was amazed to see that bag. His friends are so understanding. Ah, friends think brother is hard to find.

"Buy where, anyway, Dek? I see in those markets, it doesn't seem to exist." Bayu recalls, when he helped wander bring his mother's groceries in preparation for her wedding some time ago.

"Oh, it's not for sale, ma'am." Aisyah took her bag. Slowly sit down next to her husband. With her finger, Aisyah gently felt the bag made of burgundy synthetic leather.

"Continue?" the more curious Bayu saw his wife so look like the gift of his friends.

"Usually, brands like these are sold at specialty stalls. There's also online."

Little does Bayu know about online purchases. Because he himself also often buy spare parts online. "As in shopia or in tokopadia, is that it?" guess Bayu made Aisyah nod with her sweet smile.

"Expensive as well, yes, if about three hundred thousand," muttered Bayu to watch the bag in his lap Aisyah.

"Obviously expensive, Mas. When I was single, I wanted to buy some money, that's it." Aisha is not a fashionable person. But also not a fashion blind. He knew about the brand bag, but he could still suppress his desire. Two hundred thousand can buy four bags, right.

Bayu cradled again if he asked Aisyah to buy him the same bag. Just yesterday, the workshop was quiet. If the money held by Aisha he asked for, he would eat what she and Aisha would eat later. But hearing his only sister's whining left him heartless.

"Sir, I feel sorry for Erina. Couldn't if there's money, you buy Erina a bag first." Although in doubt, but finally Bayu also issued his uneg-unegnya.

"Mas, I hold no money. If I buy Erina a bag, then what do we eat for the next two weeks. Not to mention the cost of freight every day."

Bayu confirmed Aisyah this time. However, it was only stored in his heart. "Look at this, how about you buy a bag similar to yours. At least, Erina has the bag she wants."

Aisyah was silent, she was unsure of her husband's ways.

"There's still money left for our needs, right?" terang Bayu again still trying to persuade Aisyah.

"Erina's an adult, Mas. Not a child who can be lied to. He clearly knew which one was KW and which one was real." Although already upset Aisyah still softly replied, so as not to trigger a commotion with her husband.

"If you can buy a similar bag, not necessarily the rest of the money can pay for electricity and water." This time, Aisyah only realized if this month it has not paid electricity costs. "Not to mention urgent needs, as unexpected," Aisyah explained again.

This time Bayu made a kicep. He is increasingly aware that he has not been able to give more money for all the needs of his household. Even impressed mediocre.

However, considering her only sister, made Bayu twist another idea. Even if he himself wasn't sure it would work.

Slowly, Bayu's sturdy hand coiled around Aisyah's waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. He closed his eyes to express another idea.

Aisyah herself would be surprised at her husband's behavior. There was a small smile imprinted on her tiny lips. To be honest, he wanted a Bayu like this every day. But, ah, that's it. Go through it as it is. He did not want to dream like before.

"Dek" whispered Bayu made Aisha's blood rustle.

"Hm" Aisha replied, twisting her neck slightly. Just wanted to know why her husband was suddenly so sweet. Apparently, when Aisyah glanced at him, Bayu was closing her eyes. Thick eyebrows that look almost linked with the nose is medium, but look sharp became the first sight Aisyah saw. Maybe her husband was so thoughtful of Erina's request. As a brother, Aisyah understood very well how her pain could not fulfill the wishes of her brother. Because he himself is also a brother.

"You have a sister, don't you, Dek!" Bayu now took off his hand following his chin raised from Aisyah's shoulder.

"Yes. I know myself, don't I, Dinda."

Bayu nodded then propped both his elbows on his knees. Do not forget his hands linked back, just to gather his beliefs. That what he was about to say would make Aisha melt down.

"That brother is where we share, after our parents. Didn't you?"

Aisyah nodded to justify.

"What if I asked you to give Erina your bag you'd give it to me?" pinta Bayu's. He no longer has an idea. This is the only last way that the younger brother can fulfill his wishes.

Surprised for sure. However, giving up the gift of his friends to Erina, it was very impossible for him to do. Like not appreciating it. Not only that, he wanted this bag for a long time. However, once it was in hand, there were only tests that made him doubtful.

Aisyah fell silent while looking at the bag on her lap. Until whenever he would not be willing to give what he has. What's more, this is a gift. His friends set aside their money for him. Surely they set aside some of that money in various ways. Then, is it worth it that he gives what they buy with great difficulty to others. No. gabe.

"Mas, this is a gift from my friends. Where do I appreciate them if I end up throwing it at someone else. Sorry, Mas. I can't."

Believe me, Aisha was also half-dead expressing her courage to oppose her husband, but how else. He thinks his decision was right.
