The Story of Cilla: Love in Marriage
Contrition

Today Cilla gathered with her two friends on campus, so Reza who is the chairman of BEM on campus came for a meeting with other members as well as some lecturers.

Cilla and her two friends sit in the campus garden chair only to let each other miss because it has been more than 2 weeks since they never met. Indeed, there are no more classes, they just wait for the graduation time to arrive which will be carried out in 1 month. Seen in front of them, precisely in the campus corridor seen Reza who walked with the map in his hand, although the distance is quite far from where they sit but it is quite visible that Reza is very busy, he said, not only once to many times because the meeting room and lecturer room are almost next to each other, there may be something that must be done until it has to go back and forth.

" Cill, look loe's husband like he was busy from back and forth." said Dona but Cilla just cuey enjoy a box of drinks in his hand.

" Jaelah... Why did you die."

" Well, what should I do? justin aja may be the task of BEM him again a lot." said Cilla flat.

" Loe is very much the same husband, look at it like ogah-ogahan. Watch out later on people take.." Citra said.

" Let's just... Loe wants?... Take it there."

" Hadeuh nih a very bad child, ntar if embat really the same person, cry shock again" said Dona.

" What's not funny outside but if it's in the room must be another story, it must be mutually hehehe." mock Citra.

" It's good, our people sleep misah." Cilla unconsciously spoke.

" What? Am I not wrong? What is your honeymoon anyway? What have you been doing these 2 weeks? main congklak hah... sepul loe Cill." said Dona who was approved by Citra.

" What? what did I just say! so many questions loe on." Cilla pretended not to understand what her friend said.

" Bolot or loe pretend bolot anyway, 2 weeks you married and you sleep apart, do you not feel the same sin as your husband loe?."

" well... Then what should I do? You know that if Reza and I married because I had to, my intention would be to marry her brother is not the same."

" But it's....."

" It's not a lot of talk, it's my business, as long as I don't have a taste, I won't do that. I'll serve him just as naturally as no more."

" Yes sorry, I understand. We also want to sleep with people we don't love. Loe is patient well, hopefully the longer there is a sense between the two of you" said Dona looks sorry.

" I don't think the same Adrian, it looks good and pretentious but even left without cause and explanation equally loe." Image Criticism.

" Have not been discussed again, I want to forget the guy and do not say his name in front of me, just make my ears hurt." pinta Cilla whose heart still hurts in staying just like Adrian.

" Are Reza's really to be taken? Do I try to seduce well let him like me hehehe. Anyway loe kelopin him, surely he needs affection hehehe." said Dona idly.

Cilla was just silent but his face showed a sign of dislike, seeing that Dona and Citra became crybaby. They know that maybe in Cilla's little heart there's a little taste, even though she's not fully aware of it.

While Reza from back and forth actually saw Cilla sitting with her two friends, she could only stare at him in silence. As much as he had hope someday could call Cilla's name gently and say the word love near his ear, but all that was still a mere wishful thinking. Cilla never noticed him, Cilla never reciprocated her love that there was only a sense of forced implied on her face.

' When your friend looks at me, I see you too, but you don't even look at me for a second. Is that how you hate me? But I will not give up on seizing your heart.' Inner Reza when looking at Cilla from afar who was cool joking with his two best friends.

Cilla was playing with her phone, sitting on the edge of the bed, watching the clock show at 18:30 Wib. Although it looks like Cilla is playing with his phone but he is like waiting for someone. Before long the door of his room was open, Reza entered with a very tired face.

" You just got home?" ask Cilla.

" Yes, I have a lot to take care of."

" Oh.... Take a bath there to be fresh, keep resting." said Cilla and Reza just smile.

' A little attention from you has made me happy.' Inner Reza.

As usual, the night just passed with Reza who remained lying on the sofa and Cilla on her sizable bed. The day continued until 3 months passed.

Cilla decided to continue his studies to S2 as well as Reza, Reza, he had decided to become a Lecturer rather than applying at a company because he had previously received an offer from his guidance counselor and now he became an assistant lecturer. Reza is popular in the campus especially with first year students even often greeted by students there and Reza answered him kindly.

On campus no one knew about Reza and Cilla's marriage, only Cilla's two friends but they did not continue their studies only until graduation S1 only. S2 lectures are not as crowded as before, in a week of lecture meetings are only held 3 times. While Reza is almost every day on campus for lectures and assistant lecturers at once.

Today Reza will be teaching to replace his ailing lecturer for 2 weeks. Coincidentally Cilla also had class on that day, Cilla set out using her car wedding gifts from her parents while Reza always wore her motor sport. They did not leave together so that there were no strange rumors, they just wanted to focus on education so they decided to cover up their marriage.

Reza entered the classroom for the first time as a teacher, just walking a few steps boisterous voices were heard, especially the voices of students in the class. Reza stood in front and introduced himself.

" Good morning... Since the Great sir cannot be present for a few days so I will replace him for a while. Do not know then no dear hehehe, before I want to introduce myself, my name is Reza Anggara.." has not finished Reza, there are students who ask.

" Sir, how old is he?" shouted one student and everything was boisterous.

" Have a girlfriend yet, sir?" chirps other students who make the class more boisterous.

Reza smiled at the question asked.

" okay... Calm down, please calm down everyone. Well, I'm only 24 years old so it's not good if you call me Father, you can call me Kak Reza just because our age is not much different. And.... I don't have a boyfriend" Reza said with a friendly smile, Reza's reply making the class boisterous again.

' Yes, I don't have a boyfriend but I have a wife.' Inner Reza.

" Ok, everything can calm down, we start learning."

" If all the lecturers are like this, I will be the spirit of learning for sure." whispered M1.

" Yes, seek knowledge while washing hehehe's eyes." whispered M2.

" Especially she said she didn't have a boyfriend, right! Can be made gebetan can dong hehehe.' whispered M3.

The teaching lasted for 1 hour and was finally finished. Reza left after all the students left until the class became empty, Cilla soon entered the class while Reza was cleaning his stationery and book into his bag.

" Uh... Cilla, what's wrong?" reza asked when he saw Cilla approaching him.

" Look.. Za, I invited my friends to hang out, right? Here and there I know I have to tell you before you go anywhere" said Cilla.

" I can't, I won't restrain you but don't come home at night, I hope the afternoon's home."

" But it's already 3pm, I'm coming home at 7 is okay, right?"

" sat.... I can, but it has to be exactly." Reza allowed his wife.

" Ok Za, thank you. I'll go first."

Reza just smiled, he did not expect that if Cilla still respected him as a husband by asking him for permission before leaving, such a small thing was enough to make Reza happy.

Cilla parked his car into his garage, he only arrived home at 19:15 WIB. Upon entering the house, Cilla passed her parents in the living room.

" Cilla, you just got home at this hour?" hardi asked while looking at the watch in his hand.

" Yeah, I've been playing with friends." Cilla replied.

" Your husband has come home from the afternoon but you're hanging out with friends, you're married, it's not good to still have fun outside while your husband is waiting at home." Hardi raised her tone.

" Well, I've got Reza's permission and Reza's allowed it."

" Yes, it's been great but you should know your position now, not like your single friends, you should change your habits." Jerky Hardi.

" Don't you, Cilla just came home don't get mad like that." Sarah.

" But this is not the case, he should know that now he is a wife not a single woman anymore" added Hardi.

Cilla was just crying and running towards her room, Cilla opened her bedroom door with a face full of tears and sobbing, her hands continue to wipe her tears that continue to flow on her cheeks. Reza who saw it immediately approached Cilla and tried to calm down and ask what happened to her until she cried like that.

" Cilla, why are you crying? What's the matter? Tell me." asked the worried Reza.

" that... Ba.just now.. A. I'm coming home, lang's dad... I'm not wrong... I've asked you for permission." Cilla kept crying.

" Yes, you're not wrong so don't cry anymore..." Reza hugged Cilla to calm her down. Cilla could only endure her crying even though she was still sobbing.

Reza hugged her and stroked her head to make Cilla feel calm, then Sarah knocked on the door and asked for permission to enter their room. Sarah sees Cilla and Reza hugging, also sees Cilla sobbing.

" I'm sorry you just walked in, Mommy just wanted to calm Cilla because Cilla had entered the room crying."

" Yes, Bun. It's okay, I'm also trying to calm Cilla." Reza let go of her embrace of Cilla.

" Yes, I was scolding Cilla because Cilla came home last night while her husband was home. Actually, the words of Father do have a point but the way of delivery is wrong. Mother asks, you must follow what the father said for the good of both of you and also Reza must be able to be more assertive to the wife so as not to happen things that are not desired."

" Yes Mother." Reply Reza, Cilla just fell silent sitting on the edge of the bed.

" Yesudah, excuse me first." Sarah came out of their room.

Cilla immediately laid her body sideways against Reza, then covered her entire body from head to toe with a blanket. Reza approached Cilla and was about to grab her shoulders to calm down, but her intentions stopped with Cilla's words.

" Don't bother me, I need time alone, it's all your fault, why should I marry you... " Cilla cried and the sound of crying was heard again, Reza could only look at Cilla who sobbed then he turned away from Cilla to sit on the sofa where he usually slept.

' I'm sorry, Cilla. Maybe this marriage is a mistake, I will not bother you if you feel uncomfortable.' Inner Reza. He pulled his blanket trying to fall asleep.

Cilla in the blanket kept sobbing, 'I'm sorry Reza, has blamed you but this marriage is not the marriage I wanted and I dreamt of, I have not accepted it sincerely.' Cilla's inner self.

In the middle of the night Reza woke up, and he went out of the room to the kitchen. He took instant coffee in the kitchen cupboard and brewed it. Then he sat down at the dinner table enjoying the coffee, he could not sleep with many thoughts in his heart.

' If it ends like this, I won't approve of this marriage even though I love Cilla so much. I even like to snatch Cilla's happiness, if only the accident did not happen to Adrian bang! If I hadn't accepted Adrian's request! Maybe this won't happen. Cilla, I will let you go if there is another man who can make you happy later, I will not force my will as long as you are happy even though you are not with me.' inner Reza who is not willing to see Cilla feel uncomfortable with their marriage.
