8 To 4: The Mayor's Contract Wife

Weakest Man

"Review!!!!” screeched at the sight of Tegar getting up and pointing his dagger at Wira.

Unfortunately, Ajeng first saw and realized the intention of Tegar. Not having enough time, Ajeng pushed Wira's body away and let the dagger stab into her stomach.

“Ajeng!!!!”

Seeing Ajeng's body drooping weakly in his arms, Wira immediately fled Ajeng to the hospital. He repeatedly called Ajeng's name while crying but the poor woman did not open her eyes. He was terrified, more than when he was sentenced to prison or when he was about to die at the hands of his enemies.

“Ajeng!! Wake up! I beg you. Awake, Jeng! You can't leave me rich gini!” Ratap Wira desperate.

Ambulance arrived at the hospital and Ajeng was immediately taken to the IGD room while Wira was required to wait outside.

Shortly after, the doctor came out to see the girl.

“You are a patient guardian?”

“I'm her husband, Doc.”

The Doctor looked at Wira with a gaze full of doubt, then sighed. “Do you know who he is?”

The hero nodded weakly. “Please do your best to help her, Doc!”

“We have done emergency treatment, but he is not a person who can be handled just any doctor. In a moment the helicopter will come to pick him up.” Said the Doctor while patting Wira's shoulder.

*****************

Watching Ajeng's departure, without being able to do anything left a very deep scar on the heart of the Hero. He felt like the weakest and most useless loser in the world. No matter how much money and power he currently has, in fact, he still cannot dwell in front of the Ajeng family.

He was not even given the opportunity to say goodbye or see Ajeng's departure up close. The guards made a very thick and sturdy barricade that he was completely unable to break through. The resigned hero let the guards push and throw his body to the floor, away from the body of the wife.

After the departure of the helicopter that brought Ajeng, Wira decided to go to Sido Stop by. All his love and life expectancy has gone with Ajeng who is either able to survive or not against his destiny. He was reluctant to return to the official house and his parents' house in Batang Hulu. He just wanted to calm down and let go of his longing for Ajeng in the old inn.

Geck..Geck..

That afternoon the innkeeper's grandmother again knocked on the door of Wira's room but the man was still unmoved and had no intention of opening the door.

“D... Get up, Den! It's noon.”

There was no reply at all so the grandmother began to worry.

“Kek, is that guy going to be okay in there? What if he committed suicide?” ask the worried grandmother.

“Ssttt! What is this grandma talking about? He is a strong and charismatic man. There is no way he has such a shallow mind.” said the grandfather.

“Iya. yes.. here let grandfather who intersect!”

Geck.. Geck..

“Den, it's grandpa. Can I talk to you for a second? Someone wants grandpa to takein with Den Wira.”

The door to the room of the hero opens. The grandfather hurriedly entered before the Hero closed it back down. The grandfather then placed a tray of food and drink on the bed, then sat on the edge of the bed near Wira.

“Grandfather knows what Aden rasain is now. Grandfather could have imagined it since the first time you guys came here. It's been such a fate that can't be denied, Den. Aden met Den Ayu, married and then forced to separate like this.”

“Why Grandpa never told me anything?”

“The life story of Den Ayu and his family is not a story that can be shared carelessly. This concerns the survival of this country. Aden knows right?”

The hero returned bowed lethargic. “Why should I experience this?”

“Because Aden has chosen one that Aden should not choose.” Answer the philosophical Grandfather and it makes the Hero even more fed up.

“Actually, Grandpa is happy to see Den Ayu cheerful and always happy every time with Aden. Grandfather had time to pray so that you can be free from events like this. Because grandpa thought Den Ayu would be happier here than at his palace.”

“Why does grandpa talk like that?”

“This is the birthplace of Den Ayu's biological mother and there is Aden who always accompany Den Ayu, while the palace is a prison for a stepson like Den Ayu. There will be no one who loves Den Ayu as Aden loves him.”

“How do I meet Ajeng, Cake? I can't live without knowing if he'll survive.” Rengek Wira shed tears.

Grandpa patted Wira's shoulder. “Den Ayu will be safe. No matter what, his father would try to save him desperately. Only, after surviving, will Den Ayu be able to return happy and forget everything? That's what grandpa wasn't sure.”

Wira was increasingly frustrated because he knew he could not do anything even just accompany her until Ajeng re-opened his eyes.

“But Aden must be strong. Aden must be sure that the soul mate is not going anywhere. As far as any distance you guys, will definitely be reunited again.”

“Get! Cake!” the grandmother was screaming from below.

“What's up, Grandma?” the old man came down from the second floor.

“There are police looking for Den Wira.”

"What?! Police?!"
