Chapter 22 Let's Get To Know Each Other.

The girl fell asleep in a bad state. In contrast to Hafiz the older brother, chose to stay in the car and did not want to go into the house.

The house that Hafiz lives in is a simple but nice house. The design was indeed made by Hafiz himself because he was an architect.

The white house with a combination of gray was only seen by Hafiz from inside the car.

"I thought I was going to live in a dream house with someone I love the most, in fact, I'm trapped," complained Hafiz while massaging his head.

Not much different from the weather in Makassar which is raining very hard. In Jakarta, it was like that, rain, wind mixed with lightning.

Dug!

Dug!

Hafiz opened his eyes when he saw his wife knocking on the car window. "Huft, the intention to escape was approached," he muttered and got out of the car.

One umbrella together can usually be romantic. But Hafiz instead chose to run. Runia followed him.

"Just keep dodging!" Runia said while putting the umbrella behind the door. Hafiz was about to enter the room.

"I have prepared food it's up to you whether you want to eat or not," said Runia very quickly. But made Hafiz stop his steps.

'Hungry too,' he said to himself. Hafiz put his bag on the sofa. And Runia walked quickly to enter her room.

Hafiz's direction is to the right and Runia is to the left because they are in different rooms.

"Let's eat together," said Hafiz, walking to the dining table while loosening his tie, Runia stopped walking and turned her head.

"What? I haven't heard," said Runia, then turned towards her husband.

"Let's eat together. Can't hear? Let's eat!" Hafiz exclaimed then pulled a chair.

"You can't, don't shout. At least joking. How can we learn to love each other if one doesn't care? Shouldn't we be fighting together? You think you're the only one suffering! Because of this marriage. Tomorrow is a family reunion, I ask for your time. , said Runia and left the dining room.

Hafiz, who was already holding the spoon, let go of the spoon. He brushed his hair back with both hands then lifted his face to look up at the ceiling.

Hafiz went back to eating, Runia walked in front of him wearing pink lingerie.

The woman Hafiz married was indeed very beautiful. But this time Runia looks elegant with a little bit of sexy. It was undeniable that Hafiz glanced at his wife when she took a drink and was about to leave the dining room.

"Want to talk," said Hafiz. In fact, both are looking for opportunities in adversity.

Runia deliberately came with her charm, while Hafiz's invitation was to look at Runia.

'I hope this is an effort. Try so that I can accept it,' said Hafiz in his heart. Runia slowly walked over to her husband and pulled a chair and sat down.

"You do not eat?" asked Hafiz, Runia shook her head and supported her face with her hands.

'Why is he just silent, I'm confused, I have to find excuses and ask what's going on,' complained Hafiz in his heart.

The heavy rain made it awkward and quiet.

"He said he wanted to talk. Why just keep quiet?" asked Runia to break the silence of the cold night.

"Hajjcing, est... Hatch... you've been silent all this time. And didn't answer my question," said Hafiz and drank.

"Isn't it after the minutes we've been sitting here, Mas just asked, 'You're not eating?' That's right. I've been shaking my head, isn't that an answer?" asked Runia back.

"I'm confused about what to talk about, and what to ask. So for example if I ask a long answer. Let me not think about any more questions, I will ask you," explained Hafiz. Runia's face reddened with a perfect smile.

"Hehehe. Why do you have to be confused? Just ask about your life experience. What do you like? But I'm happy. You've tried. Rather than on our wedding night, Mas just stood still and focused on the cellphone screen. It was very annoying, but I also have to understand. Marriage impromptu requires me to try and force to love you,' explained Runia who then looked at her husband.

Hafiz, who had been observing his wife's beautiful face, immediately looked away.

"My head is a little dizzy," said Hafiz who then massaged his head. Runia stood up and touched Hafiz's forehead with the back of her hand.

"Don't shower with cold water. Because you have a fever. I will prepare warm water, please go to your room and I'll take you," said Runia in a soft voice and then went to the kitchen.

'Maybe learning to accept circumstances and reality is a good thing. Isn't he a mate from God? So it's better for me to accept and continue to learn to love him,' said Hafiz to himself.

Drttt. Drttt.

Hafiz saw Runia's cell phone vibrating as an incoming call. Hafiz looked at Runia's cell phone.

"Don't pick it up, hahaha," Hafiz laughed after reading the contact's name. He swiped the phone screen and answered the call.

"Runia... Runia. Wherever you are hiding I can find you." The voice from inside the phone made Hafiz frown.

Runia pulled the cellphone and threw it until it broke. Hafiz was very surprised.

"Why did you pick up!" asked Runia screaming with teary eyes.

"Sorry," said Hafiz looking at Runia with a question mark. Runia went limp as she cried non-stop.

"Can you tell me? I'm not your husband now. Let's get to know each other," asked Hafiz to sit in front of Runia.

Runia cried incessantly. "Tell me slowly," said Hafiz. Secretly the young man began to be curious about Runia's past story.

"Ah, forget it. It's useless you will never believe what I say," said Runia back into the kitchen.

Hafiz just massaged his forehead and took a deep breath.

"I was about to be sold. Will be made a comfort woman. That's why I went abroad. Things were very complicated. Like we were trapped in a room. The difference was that at that time I realized, immediately ran away and was still dressed, unlike when you were without a piece of cloth. Est . .. it's very long, you must be sick of hearing my voice too. Just look at my face, you're excited," explained Runia who then lowered herself.

'Why do his words make me sad? I really don't like being around him. This moment, this second? My heart... why is this?' Hafiz thought.

Then he kept looking at his wife who was carrying hot water. Hafiz walked behind Runia. Hafiz knows that Runia is hot.

Hafiz immediately held Runia's hand. "Let go, let me carry it," said Hafiz. Runia let go and stopped walking.

"Why to stop?" asked Hafiz turning to his wife. Runia still looked up at Hafiz's invitation. "Help me. My arm is hurt, you are my wife. Shouldn't we also have each other? You are my shirt and I am your shirt. So treat my wound," said Hafiz then walked.

"Still frozen, come on...." said Hafiz after arriving in the middle of the door. The two eyes met each other. However, as usual, Hafiz avoided eye contact.

Runia gulped down her saliva tensely and nervously as well as cold palms, flushed cheeks, and pain in every joint. He took a deep breath and walked into his husband's room.
