New Breath
Chapter 41's

“Papa see for himself how Farhan's hand is shaking and he's just trying to hide it from Papa.”

Papa's words again ring in Reyhan's ear niche. What Papa said is true. He could see it happening to his sister again. And Farhan did the same. Farhan tried to avoid it. Until he had no chance to ask any further.

Reyhan lifted his head and stared at the wall clock in the front room. Ten o'clock at night. And now again he had to wait for Farhan who did not show any signs of coming home. Right said Papa, he had to invite his sister to talk. Something was wrong with Farhan. So far perhaps what Farhan has shown is just pretending to look okay. In fact, the man was hiding a big secret, Reyhan thought.

Reyhan grabbed the phone he had placed on the table. He saw that the message he sent to his sister had not yet been read. Especially reaping the rewards. Reyhan let out a long breath. He was worried about Farhan.

“Hei! Why are you still here? Let's rest,” Nadhira said very gently as she approached her husband. He stood in front of Reyhan who was sitting with that worried look on his face. “What's up?” nadhira asked as he restored Reyhan's hair that had begun to extend. Then she kissed her husband's forehead.

Reyhan raised his gaze and met his gaze with the look of the pair of beautiful eyeballs, he then grabbed his wife's hand and grasped it tightly. Reyhan pulled Nadhira's small body and hugged her in a sitting position and Nadhira stood up. Until his face fell on the woman's stomach. Last time he kissed Nadhira's stomach while the twins were still in there. Until sometimes he felt the movement of his tiny baby. Ah, Reyhan misses those times. However, he also enjoyed the presence of the twins in his life. He could hear the cries and occasional laughs that escaped his adorable twin pair. Yes, although there is one fact that Reyhan has only recently known about the condition of one of her babies.

“It's getting late. Come Brother rest. Not tomorrow Brother is going to the office?”

Reyhan nodded his head. Tomorrow he will again set foot in the multi-storey building that used to be his second home. I can't wait to get back to work like before.

“I wait for Farhan to come home first, yes, Al. After that, I'll rest. You better take a break first because you must be tired,” said Reyhan while raising his gaze again. He smiled sweetly at a beautiful woman in an instant hijab. From the past until this moment, Reyhan felt his wife had never lost her aura of beauty. Instead, he saw Nadhira increasingly radiating the charm of extraordinary beauty. Especially when she is holding her baby. He did not expect that his small and powerful wife had grown up and become a great mother to Radit and Radin.

“What's up with Farhan? Didn't you say yesterday, hm?”

Reyhan pulled Nadhira's body and sat on his lap. After returning from a long sleep. Reyhan looked very spoiled and was also being sweet. It was basically sweet Reyhan long ago. But now it's becoming more and more so. In fact, he did not choose a place to pit romance with Nadhira and of course without embarrassment despite being seen by parents or even other workers in the house.

“I feel something is hidden Farhan, Al,” Reyhan said. “Papa same story I was a few days ago. In the office he finds Farhan with trembling hands and Farhan tries to dodge. Then, this afternoon I also found the same thing happened to Farhan,” Reyhan continued, recounting the incident he found.

Nadhira was silent. Now, Reyhan and Papa have even harbored suspicion on Farhan. Either sooner or later the secret he was trying to hide was bound to be revealed as well. Then, if the people knew, would they hate Nadhira for conspiring with Farhan?

“Entah is just my feeling or it really happened. I don't think Farhan's okay, Al. He's more thin and looks very pale lately,” Reyhan told his wife about his suspicions against Farhan. “Do you feel the same?”

“Al,” call Reyhan for not getting a response from his wife.

“I-iya, Sister.”

“You why daydream?”

“Nothing,” replied Nadhira and tried to be casual. “So Sister said what?”

Reyhan repeated his previous remark.

“Iya. Farhan is more gentler. Maybe because he has spent more time lately to work and not pay too much attention to rest and diet,”, said Nadhira with his original answer.

“What Farhan as long as I'm not around he always works hard?”

Nadhira nodded his head. “Farhan has worked hard to replace Sister. Many big projects that have been achieved by Farhan in recent months,”, Nadhira said proudly. “Farhan works hard to prove that he can be like Big Brother to Papa. But ... Hm, Big Brother definitely knows how the story is.”

Reyhan nodded in understanding. Nadhira's right. He knows what the next story will be. It hasn't changed since then either. I don't know when that time will come and then show a new story to restore the condition in the house. A condition in which you can describe harmony, warmth, and happiness as a family in general.

“Al, what during that also Farhan look okay?” reyhan asked back at the initial topic of his suspicions to the younger brother. “I mean, she doesn't complain of pain?” reyhan quickly continued before his wife raised her voice.

I don't know how many sins Nadhira committed to her husband. And this time, he would do the same. He recoiled his sins for a secret he still hid. “Only ordinary pain if it is exhausted,” replied Nadhira with a tone of voice that he tried to be ordinary.

Reyhan who was too trusting of Nadhira could only nod his head. But in his heart he could not believe it. I don't know what the reason is. However, his heart could not lie. His instincts as a sister cannot be denied about his feelings saying that his sister is not as good as what is on display or what Nadhira says.

“Kak, I don't know if later you find out about Farhan and I'm keeping it a secret. You will probably hate me very much. But what I did was not because of my desire. I just don't want your sister to leave and no one takes care of her,” Sadina said inwardly. He touched the back of Reyhan's hand which was coiled around his stomach.
