Believe me, I'm Still Sacred

Chapter 78. Uncovered lies

...🍁🍁🍁...

The plan is just a plan, his meetings with his business clients do not take place as quickly as he wants. The business meeting and the deal were only completed after 1 week. Long enough time than what Rey targets is 3 days.

"Sir, don't be angry, continue to be sir.later cepet old" said Niko reminded his boss because he was always angry for a few days.

Now Rey and Niko are in the VIP seats. But still Rey crossed both her hands on her chest in annoyance.

"When I want to be here for 3 days, but why 1 week? Why the flight should be delayed 2 days. Argggh..shit!" gerutu Rey is upset. Somehow Zahwa's reaction when he saw his beloved kakka angry like this.

"Please sir, we'll get married again."

"Who would say US? I don't want to marry you, I'm still normal."

"Wah the father.don't my ledekin who is still single this dong kak." Niko chuckled small.

"That's why you have a boyfriend dong, let you know what it's like to be me! I am restless, want to get married quickly." said Rey with a sigh of annoyance.

Niko just fell silent not to reply to his boss, even though he was the first to date but Rey pretentiously advised her who had just broken up. Let it go, boss is always right.

Niko praised Rey's loyalty, although there were some women who approached Rey while in Bali. Maybe the women were willing to give themselves to Rey, voluntarily so. But Rey refused all that even threatened to cancel cooperation with his client if the business client brought women.

Miss Zahwa is very lucky, Mr. Reyndra's loyalty problem is not in doubt. And he's also strong in faith.

In Jakarta, the hospital where Zahwa works. From this morning, Jakarta has been raining heavily, not like the usual sunny ones. Zahwa had just finished examining his patient who was an average child. Probably because of his profession as a dentist.

That afternoon Zahwa was preparing to go home, he saw his assistant Sister Erin was still clearing some patient data. "Have it, just leave it there and go home!"

"But doc, my job is not done yet" Erin said, turning to Zahwa.

"It's okay, let me finish it. Didn't you say your son was sick? Come home, Sister Erin."

"But..."

"It's okay, it's a little bit more, right?" asked Zahwa while looking at some documents still piling up in front of Erin. He felt sorry for Erin who had to work at a young age and already had children due to being pregnant out of wedlock, he became reminded of his mother in the past. Erin is a single parent.

Erin finally complies with Zahwa because she is also restless leaving her son at home with her mother. Before returning Zahwa gave him money for the fare. Erin was very grateful and wished Zahwa well. Especially in the wedding. Zahwa also prayed for Erin's son to recover quickly.

2 hours later Zahwa finished checking the patient's documents, Zahwa took off his white coat and kept it in the room. Afterwards he brought a carry-on bag and went out of his room. The hallway looks quiet, surely many specialists have gone home at this hour. It was night too.

Just as he opened the door, he saw Zainab talking to one of the obstetricians at the hospital. Zainab handed the doctor a brown envelope.

"Thank you doc, the doctor has helped me cover up my fake pregnancy" Zainab told Zahwa, leaving the girl wide-eyed.

"Yes Zainab's doctor, thank you for the money. I hope Zainab's doctor gets pregnant quickly so that Zainab's doctor's husband doesn't ask for another divorce."

"Yes doc, hopefully yes. bismilbornrahmanirrahim." Zainab sighed, smiling wryly after paying the doctor to lie.

After the surgery and Zainab finished, the doctor returned to his room not far from the room where Zahwa worked. Zainab's face paled as she watched Zahwa standing there nervously. Without them realizing Salimah was there too, but he hid when he saw Zainab walking near Zahwa, he noticed the two women from afar.

"Have you been here long?" zainab asked, indeed she was very afraid of his conversation and the doctor was known by Zahwa.

"Yes my brother." replied Zahwa honestly.

"W-did you hear everything?" zainab was getting scared.

"Yes, my brother, calm down.I will keep this a secret. But that doctor, he was wrong for violating his code of conduct." Zahwa said with a cold eye.

"Zahwa.I beg you not-" Zainab's hands trembled when she.

"Yes, brother, I'll keep this a secret. I would assume I heard nothing, but I only reminded my fellow Muslims. Sis lying is not good, God clearly forbids lying in the letter of An-nahl verse 105 and the base of sin is a lie sis. The more we lie, the more lies there will be. I hope Brother Zainab is better to be honest." said Zahwa reminded Zainab to be honest with Raihan.

Zainab even smiled cynically accompanied by teary eyes. "You don't have to interfere with Zahwa, don't be so pretentious to remind me. You don't understand my feelings, because just maintaining them is so hard for me! As for you, no matter what happens to you and whatever you do, there is always someone who loves you" Zainab said sobbing.

"Sorry brother, I don't want to interfere but I just remind you. If you don't want to hear it already."

Suddenly someone hugged Zainab from behind. Zahwa also saw the man who is now so romantic to Zainab.

"Assalamualaikum my wife, I'm sorry I just picked up Salimah first" said Raihan with a look of love on Zainab.

"You why Zainab? Did Zahwa say anything to you?" raihan asked directly to accuse Zahwa who was still there. Actually he was about to leave but waited to say hello.

"Please Mr. Raihan do not just accuse" Zahwa said to her former husband-to-be.

O Allah, brother of Zainab, why do you have to do all these lies? Though I saw that Raihan's men have started loving you, then why can't you wait?

"Geez, I'm fine and it's not Zahwa's fault. I was just flickering, and I was quick to apologize to Zahwa."

"Zahwa, I asked-"

"No need. Assalamualaikum," said Zahwa ketus, then leave from there just like that. He really did not want to get involved with Zainab or Raihan again after he realized that their natures were the same. As long as the accusation in one look.

Yeah, didn't Raihan also doubt Zahwa's purity?

Salimah smiled cunningly at their conversation earlier and the fact she knew that Zainab was pretending to be pregnant. "Haha, now I have a way that I can unravel the Reyndra's secret without having me talk."

****

2 Days later, Rey who asked to whine hastened marriage to all the families. Finally agreed too, lucky half the preparation of the wedding has been completed and their wedding plans will be carried out tomorrow.

During that time Rey and Zahwa do not meet first and they stay home to prepare mentally for their wedding day. Intentionally do not contact each other, so that the moment of marriage and their first night becomes more meaningful. Rey also renounces her intention to dismantle Zainab's crimes, fearing the law of karma.

Zahwa was silent to see the typical Muslim wedding dress on display in his house, he smiled happily at the thought of wearing the dress tomorrow. "Tomorrow I will wear the dress that Rey gave me."

Zahwa used to be married wearing a kebaya, but now he doesn't want to wear a kebaya. Kebaya will only remind her of her bitterness about the null and void marriage and she wants to start a new story with Rey and a new atmosphere of course.

Zayn and Aini, who were near the kitchen, saw Zahwa pensively there.

"Something seems to be looking forward to tomorrow" Aini said with a smile.

"Yes, you really are Hulk. I can't wait for the answer, too,"

"uh? What answers?" aini asked as she turned to Zayn.

"The expression of my love" Zayn replied.

"Tomorrow,"

"What?" Zayn is closest to a short answer from Aini.

"On the wedding day Zahwa and Rey's brother tomorrow, I'll give you the answer."

I'll give you Zayn's answer.

Zayn turned his face away then he smiled happily. Although he had not yet received an answer, he could not wait for tomorrow.

Meanwhile, at Raihan's house.

When she finished dinner, Raihan saw a message on her phone. His face immediately looked angry looking at the contents of the message.

"Mas, do you want to sleep now?"

"Zaynab! Explain what all this means?" Raihan whose emotions immediately threw his phone on the bed that Zainab was there.

At first Zainab was amazed why Raihan looked so angry after reading the contents of the message on his phone, finally he opened the contents of Raihan's phone and he saw a video where when he gave money to the obstetrician. Of course the video is complete with the voice of the conversation between Zainab and the doctor.

Raihan's eyes looked wrathfully at Zainab, now Zainab's face was pale and frightened. "Mas..I can explain all this!"

"Explain what? You're pretending to be PREGNANT?!" raihan snapped angry.

All fucked up, Zainab's secret has been exposed. And what will happen after this?
