365 Day Contract
Chapter 75



It has been 1 month since Jihan gave birth to her first daughter, she lived her happy days as a wife and mother. The happiness that Jihan felt could not be separated from the role of Shaka all his family. Changes in Shaka's attitude and nature are quite influential for Jihan's happiness. Since their daughter was born into the world, Shaka suddenly became a father and husband who are alert and sensitive. His affection and attention were up many times than before.


Shaka often replaces Jihan staying up late to take care of their daughter who wakes up in the middle of the night. No matter if she had only slept 2 or 3 hours, while hearing her daughter's cries, Shaka would wake up and let Jihan rest.


Like tonight, Shaka, who had just returned from out of town, immediately carried his daughter after cleaning up. The man stood on the edge of the bed holding his daughter. Meanwhile, Jihan is still sitting on the edge of the bed because she has been breastfeeding her child ever since.


Shak lowered his head, he landed a kiss on Jihan's forehead affectionately.


"You sleep again, Flora let me take care of you." He said as he rubbed gently next to Jihan's cheek.


"Let's Mas," Jihan grabbed Shaka's hand still on her cheek, then kissed Shaka's palm while staring at the twinkle of happiness. Jihan thinks Shaka will not change and will forever be a careless and insensitive man to his wife. It's now 180 degrees. The iceberg has melted.


"You don't get tired of thanking me every day.?" Shaka chuckled slightly and pinched Jihan's chin.


Jihan shook her head, her smile was perfect.


"I'll thank you every day of my life. Shaka is not bored." His words then chuckled.


"Isn't it my responsibility to help care for and manage Flo.? She's here because of the hard work we both had on the day, so I should've taken care of Flora." Shaka.


Jihan laughed, she was amused at hearing the term hard work.


"Yes, it's so hard that the body aches." Keep Jihan.


"The most important thing is satisfaction and results." Shaka said, then looked at his daughter's face.


"Look, she's as beautiful as her Mommy. I have to take extra care of him when he's a teenager. He can be the target of many men." Reveal her with anxious feelings and not willing to imagine her daughter in close proximity to men.


Jihan laughed amusedly. Their daughter was only 1 month old, but Shaka's mind was already very far away.


"It takes another 12 years until Flora is a teenager, why have you thought that far. Mas Shaka can get old fast if every day worrying about something that is still a long time happening." Comment Jihan.


Shaka breathed a heavy sigh. Every day he was always confused by his thoughts like that. There is a feeling of fear and unwillingness if one day his daughter starts to get close to men. Such a feeling may not only be felt by Shaka. It could be that all fathers who have daughters will feel the same way.

3 Months passed,,,


Flora grew up well in Jihan and Shaka's upbringing. Without the help of a baby sitter, Jihan can take good care of her daughter. Surely after learning from Mama Dewi and Mama Sonia.


Jihan herself is willing to take care of her daughter without help from others. Because he wanted to feel how his mother struggled when taking care of him first. From there, Jihan became more respectful and loving to her mother.


Jihan put Flora in the baby box. Flora fell asleep while drinking milk. At 8pm it was time for the little baby to sleep.


"Come, we should also go to bed before Flo wakes up again and invites us to stay up." Invite Jihan while shifting away from the baby box so as not to disturb her daughter's deep sleep.


"I have something to talk about." While embracing Jihan's waist, Shaka led her to the sofa.


"On what.? It seems very serious." Said Jihan who saw Shaka's facial expression looking serious.


Shaka did not reply immediately, he told Jihan to sit down first.


"On Galih. My man has found his whereabouts." Shaka. After almost 1 year of searching, Shaka can only track the whereabouts of Om Jihan who has disappeared for years.


Jihan's eyes looked teary. Not a word came out of his lips, but his lips trembled with the cry.


"He lives in Osaka. Worked at one of the big companies. His life is fine." Shaka.


Jihan slammed into Shaka's arms with an unstoppable cry.


"Can I go see him.?" Jihan asked in between her sobs. His feelings are mixed at this time, between happy and disappointed in Omnya for not trying to return, but his life is fine.


"of course. We're going together. But there's one thing you should know," Shaka hung up his words, blinded Jihan curiously and immediately let go of her indentation to stare at Shaka.


"What's up.?" Ask Jihan worriedly. Instantly his heart skipped a beat as he saw Shaka's facial features getting more serious and seemed hesitant to speak. It was as if there was something bad that Shaka would say.

New York,, uh,,,


A middle-aged woman was crying next to a patient's bed, in one of New York City's major hospitals. The woman wept for her weakly lying daughter. Since her daughter positively pregnant, has been 3 times back and forth in care because of her weak condition.


"Had time played, Vie wouldn't have done something so stupid. Forgive Vie, Mam." He said with a cry that was no less bitter than his mother.


"I'm sorry that Vie chose to keep this kid," he said. Vierra's cries were breaking. She had been among the difficult choices, but ultimately chose to keep the fetus in its womb.


"Mama is hurt by your actions, but Mama is more hurt to see your condition like this. You've chosen a complicated life to live." Mama Mira said. His tears are flowing more and more. A mother's heart will certainly be hurt when accepting the fact that her daughter is pregnant without any marriage bond and does not want to be married to the father of the child she contains.


Instead of telling and asking to be married, Vierra instead wanted to disappear from the life of the father of her child.


"Look, Vie, you're not just sacrificing the future, you're risking your own life."


Vierra did not reply anymore, she instead dissolved into her tears with a flailing feeling. Sometimes he did regret his actions a few months ago, but the presence of children in the womb makes Vierra grateful. Because he could have a part of the man he loved.
