New Breath
Chapter 37's

At Papa's request to get Farhan to speak. Reyhan is still waiting for his sister's return. He had even spent nearly two hours in the front room just to wait for Farhan who did not return home. Reyhan thought that his sister must be overtime. Remembering Nadhira's story about his sister who now always comes home on time and will be late to go home if overtime only. It also makes Reyhan more proud of Farhan who began to change, because it is no longer often left home. In fact, sometimes not go home for days like before.

“Kak, how many hours have you tried Sister sitting here waiting for Farhan?” Nadhira approached Reyhan somehow how many times since. The woman went back and forth to the front room and room just to make sure the twins slept well. He sat next to Reyhan and stroked his arm in the sweater. “Seconds can talk tomorrow. Better Brother rest only, yes.”

Reyhan lifted his head and stared at the wall clock in the room. Then, he looked at his wife. “Let's go, Honey. I'm not sleepy either. You're the one who rested with the twins, gih. You must be tired ‘kan all day must take care of me with the twins.” Reyhan smiled proudly at his wife. He then briefly dyed the head crest covered in the instant hijab. How lucky Reyhan sent a beautiful, patient, and tough female figure to be his life companion.

“Kak, remember the condition of Brother. Sister will have to rest a lot,” persuaded Nadhira again so that her husband wants to rest first. Because, Nadhira is afraid that Reyhan will return to feel that there is something strange happening to his body. Nadhira was quite traumatized by the events that almost cost her husband's life. He was not ready if it suddenly happened again to Reyhan. Especially when trapped in a long sleep. Nah! Nadhira did not want that to happen. Just once. He also needs a story companion and back up when feeling tired.

Reyhan draped his arm around Nadhira's neck. Then, he slowly pulled his wife's body to lean against the chest of his field. “You take it easy, yes, dear. I will definitely take care of my condition. I don't want to leave you with the twins,” Reyhan said in a very soft and reassuring tone. After waking up from his coma, Reyhan promised to always take care of himself and always be fine. It is enough that he leaves the beautiful women and the little babies that God has entrusted in his life to take care of. After that, he would no longer leave them. He will care for, love, and love his wife and a pair of twins whose crying is always an alarm in every morning. The alarm that Reyhan sounds so beautiful to me.

The main door of the luxury house was opened and successfully seized the attention of Reyhan and Nadhira. The couple turned to the source of the voice and found Farhan who had just returned home in clothes that were not as neat as when he left. However, Farhan's steps did not look so excited. It also appears that the man is massaging the base of his nose. And Farhan seems to have not realized the existence of Reyhan and Nadhira around him.

“Farhan,” call Reyhan who successfully seized his sister's attention.

Farhan turned his head and squinted his eyes to see his brother more clearly. Yes, now Farhan's view has appeared blurry along with the dizziness that makes his ears also buzz. He only replied with a faint smile and moved closer towards Reyhan. He grabbed Reyhan's hand and kissed his brother's back. And so did Nadhira.

“You're overtime so it's too late to go home like this?” ask Reyhan. He tried to look at his sister's pale face. Until his gaze stopped at the corner of Farhan's lips that looked blue. “Why's lips?”

Nadhira who heard Reyhan's question also floated a look at his sister's limbs that one. And sure enough, the corners of Farhan's lips looked bruised and blue. I don't know what happened to her sister-in-law.

“Nothing,” reply Farhan casually.

Reyhan felt the need to talk intensely with his sister. He asked Nadhira to go to the room first. “Honey, you can go to the room first. I'll catch up later, yeah. I want to talk to Farhan for a minute,” Reyhan said gently. Fortunately, Nadhira immediately agreed. The woman was always trying to understand her request. Especially if you want to talk seriously with Farhan. Nadhira never refused. Maybe Nadhira also understood that he and Farhan needed time to talk more intensely.

“Let's Papa again?” reyhan asked in a sad tone after Nadhira passed towards the room. Some time waiting, he did not get an answer from his sister. And Farhan's silence makes Reyhan find the answer. He could only shake his head. Why hasn't Papa changed with his tough attitude?

“If Farhan is not wrong also Papa will not sell this kok, Kak. So, yeah, that's it. What Farhan got because of Farhan also,” said Farhan in a resigned tone. Free also has to explain at length why it can be like this. He himself also did not want to make Papa's position at fault. Let Papa do whatever he wants, Farhan thought now. After all, Farhan was already self-aware of his condition that could no longer resist or oppose Papa's wishes.

Farhan nodded his head.

“What are you hiding from all of us?”

Farhan raised his head and looked at his brother. He did not know why Reyhan suddenly asked like that. “What Brother mean?”

“You're not okay, Dek. You're sick, ‘kan?” Reyhan was stunned by his own question. I don't know why that question escaped her pink lips.

At once Farhan's lips were silenced. Does Reyhan know what happened to him? Where did Reyhan know everything? Whether Nadhira had leaked the facts that he had been hiding Farhan immediately dismissed it. There was no way Nadhira would break his promise. He believed in his brother-in-law. “Kak why the hell? How the question digress like that,” he said and try to look ordinary so that Reyhan does not realize it.

“Ncooking? Out of nowhere, Dek?”

Farhan exhaled a rough breath. “Abviously Farhan looks like a sick person?”

“Iya,” Reyhan replied quickly which successfully silenced Farhan's lips for the second time. “Papa also see how you tried to hide your shaking hand this morning. You also do not forget how fresh blood flows from your nose. Brother also heard from Mama you look thinner and Sister also realized it.”

“Farhan is just smoothing doang kok, brother. Don't overdo it like that,” replied Farhan still trying to dodge.

“Who has le—” Reyhan's sentence hangs when he hears Nadhira's scream from upstairs.

“Kakak!”

What the hell's going on?
