9 Requests for Love

worst plan

time went on but Razik could not afford to close his eyes again.The choice Abi gave really took his mind.

"if I marry Zia, what about Syifa? then can I be happy and love Zia again? doesn't Zia still hate me?"

Razik stood up and opened the window of the room, staring at the dark sky, not even a single star adorned him.

"but if not, the photo will be widespread.what about our family's good name? papi Zia's business and Abi's school name will fall together. What about my good name and Zia? wouldn't it be worse and Syifa would probably hate it more akhhh"

Razik grabbed her hair in frustration.

"what path should I choose, God?"

his gaze was glaring at the darkness that adorned the sky.His gaze was diverted when Ummi knocked on the door and invited Razik to pray at dawn.

"it's time to pray, son"

Razik nodded and followed Ummi out of the room. Razik led prayers solemnly, because Abi prayed to the mosque then Razik who became the dawn imam. Razik did not want to go to the mosque but his mentality seemed not ready to meet with local residents. Razik greeted Ummi but when Razik wanted to release his shaman ummi held Razik's hand, Razik made Razik sit back in front of the ummi.

"mas for this time let Ummi ask for something"

Although it has not been delivered, Razik can guess what Ummi wants.

"what's ummi?"

"married to Zia"

that's exactly what Razik thought.

"should I marry him?"

inner Razik.

"recently Abi opened a free school program for orphans/parents in our pesantren and many sponsors who support it, and this program will be validated during the new teachings later"

ummi looked at Razik expectantly.

"Ummi is really afraid that this problem will affect the program that has been designed by Abi, because the largest donor of funds for this program is his papinya Zia. mas, ummi cares not only about Abi but also about the children"

it was as if a big slap for Razik to immediately realize the right decision he had to make.

"Ummi asked for this not only to think about Abi but also Ummi thought this was the best for the mas. Zia is a good woman and mas already know Zia from childhood.Even the Zia family already consider Abi as part of their large family, mas know itukan"

Razik nodded.

"those who accepted Abi with open arms and Abi was raised by their families because it is now Ummi's plea to the public to accept Zia with open arms as well"

"Ummi don't, don't beg Razik. Razik will do that. Razik will accept and marry Zia. But don't ever beg Razik, Ummi. Ummi just give the order, Razik will live it"

Ummi was unable to stem his tears, immediately the atmosphere felt so haru for the child and the mother.

"tomorrow Razik will talk to Zia. But Razik won't be able to do anything if Zia doesn't want to marry Razik Ummi"

"iya ummi understands. talk to Zia."

Razik nodded, she laid herself on the lap of the Ummi, wanting to feel the soft and warm embrace of a mother.

as Razik said today, he's going to meet Zia and talk about the decision they should have taken. But both are still silent. There was guilt in both hearts.

"gue apologise"

Razik fell silent and did not understand why Zia apologized to him.

"this happens because I. I accidentally take off your shirt Zik, because I see your body is very hot. But really I did not think it would be like this would be"

Razik's eyes are perfectly rounded. Now he let his heart make Zia act to hate him.

"as a doctor I can see the critical state of the night, your body is too hot and your clothes are also tight so I loose so that the heat in your body can be slightly reduced. and my shirt, I made it as a cover so that you are not too exposed to the wind. I just intend to do nolongin lo doang. I am afraid that the heat will be higher."

"Lo should just let me die aja.lo know ngak Zi, because of the actions of our lo, our family so caught up with this problem"

Zia bowed down she did not expect Razik to be so angry at her.

"gue apologise"

"sorry, sorry you can't solve this problem"

"how should I go?"

"Lo should marry me"

Zia couldn't believe what she was hearing.

"we have to get married to save our family"

Zia was still silent, she did not know how to respond to Razik's proposal.

"this color is just to save the family name then our marriage is quite a year"

"one year?

Zia increasingly did not understand what Razik was thinking.

"yes, one year after a year we're getting divorced"

"why?"

"i still love Syifa and my future dreams are with her"

as if the heart of Zia's heart was sliced to hear what Razik had just said.at the same time Zia was lifted as high as the sky and dropped to the bottom of the abyss.it felt like her pride was stripped bare. not married, her future husband already has the intention to divorce her.

"Lo calm down we will marry secretly because I also do not want our marriage known to people and I will never ask for a living mind same lo. our marital status is enough on paper outside that we take care of each other's lives"

Zia could no longer hear every suggestion or decision from Razik because every word that came out of Razik's mouth just cut her heart.

"and we can...."

"just ngak, I don't want to marry you"

Razik stared intently and Zia could feel anger in that gaze
