Black Stain My Husband

Mama Delia's plan

The rumbling sound from outside shocked Zahra who was still in the bathroom. Not because of their arrival, but the existence of Aidin who is still with him. 

"Pick out, Mom! Mama's coming." Pushing the busy Aidin arm plan open the sanitary pad. 

"Why should I go out? You're not done yet. I can wear this myself."  Turning his head towards the triangular cloth in his hand. Very calm, there was not the slightest fear of meeting Delia. For him, what he did in-laws was natural and gave many lessons.

"But __" 

Zahra stopped saying that she was only afraid that Delia would have her men beat up Aidin like before she left for Sydney. 

"But what? Nothing's gonna happen." Calm down, help Zahra walk because she does not want to be carried by him. 

The bathroom door is open. Sure enough, there were already many people in the room including papa James and Cherly. 

"Sister" exclaimed the girl scattering over to Zahra who was still in the doorway. 

Zahra smiled broadly. Still focus on the path that must be careful as the doctor says. Not only helped him walk, Aidin raised him who was about to go up to the bed, then laid him down. 

"When are you coming, Deck?" zahra asked Cherly who was holding her from the side. 

"An hour ago." Looking at the clock in his hand. 

Aidin shifted a little away from Zahra. If it is surrounded by the troops of mama Delia he can not be free. Not out of fear, just respecting the woman as her mother-in-law, and Aidin did not want to make trouble that ended up battered. 

"Taraaa…. "

The heavy sound from the direction of the door shocked everything including Aidin. 

Iqbal, why is he here? 

"Mas Iqbal," Zahra said in a crisp voice. 

Iqbal greeted everyone including Aidin, even shaking hands with the man as he used to. Then put some boxes on the table. Approaching Zahra who appears to lie comfortably. 

"How are you, Ning?"

As usual, Iqbal was very gentle when he asked Zahra. 

Aidin's chest burst into flames hearing the pinned call for his wife. I want to reprimand Iqbal, but have no right to do that. Holding what is churning in the chest.

"Alhamdulillah, the delivery went well. His grandfather is also healthy."

"Sorry, I just came, yesterday there was an important meeting so his departure was pushed back" Iqbal said. In fact, he had promised to come before Zahra gave birth, but had to fail because of work. 

"No papa, after all there is brother Hanif and mas Aidin."

"Next time don't repeat, Bal. What if Zahra? You're getting married soon, mama doesn't want you to take care of her."

Aidin's eyes glazed. His lips were as mute as a living statue could only hear their conversation. His presence is completely ignored. The status is indeed a husband, but it is not entitled to defend himself which is clearly not accepted by Delia. 

Hearing that, Zahra immediately called out to Aidin. Ask him to get a drink and help him sit down. 

Poor mas Aidin, surely he was disappointed with the words of mama, what should I do? 

Zahra grabbed the wrist of Aidin who was about to leave. A small cry signifies asking the man to be with her. 

Iqbal who saw that approached Zea and the others on the sofa. 

"Tonight accompany Zahra yes, Bal. I'd like to accompany James to meet with the client for a while" Delia asked in a loud voice. 

Quite a stab in Aidin's heart. His existence was really not considered, but what power, he could only accept and consider all of that in return as he had done to Zahra. 

"I'm hungry, Mas" whispered Zahra to the melt of Aidin's slightly muddled heart. 

"What do you want to eat?" Aidin pulled out his phone. Show some menus in nearby restaurants. 

"Soyur, same lean meat. Tell me that for the new guy."

Actually that is not what he wants to eat, just follow the advice of a local doctor. It also helped Aidin to forget Delia's words earlier. 

Not only ordering Zahra requests, Aidin also ordered some fruits and milk specifically for breastfeeding mothers. 

"Za, you don't want to open a gift from Iqbal?" Again Delia looked for a gap to uncover the kindness of the man sitting beside her. 

Zahra glanced at the middle box on the table, it was certain that it was expensive and classy, then looked at Aidin. Husband who has never given her anything. 

"It's night now, Ma. Tomorrow alone," Zahra subtly refused, not wanting to offend Iqbal nor wanting to hurt her husband. 

Not long after, the food ordered by Aidin came. It turns out not only to buy for Zahra, but for everyone, including Iqbal and Cherly. 

"If mom and dad don't like this, I can change."

James smiled with his head, while Delia did not respond in the least. Cherly ate it because she was too hungry. 

"No papa, Din. It's been special" praised James who immediately got a pinch of Delia. 

At least someone appreciates my efforts. 

Bribes by bribes entered Zahra's mouth. Since marriage, this was the second time Aidin had fed her, although the first had to force at least she felt food from the man's hand. 

"Do you do this by force?"

Zahra held the hand of Aidin who was already thrusting food in front of her. I want to hear the man's answer. 

"You think?" ask Aidin back. 

Zahra was shaking her lips. Reading her husband's eyes full of riddles. 

"I don't know, I just don't want to bother anyone else in my life." 

Smile a little, "Did you ever complain when I troubled you. Did you ever protest when I asked you to cook, do laundry and clean the house without a wage and a living. Don't ever ask me that question again. Now you're still my wife, and allow me to take care of you until a time will tell you everything." 

Aidin resigned, he did not want to curb Zahra with him. Even though his heart is unwilling, it still must not be selfish and force the will. 

Time continued to roll, the room began to quiet. Delia and James have gone to meet a client. Cherly escorted Hanif to the villa. Iqbal went to buy something. 

"You're not sleeping, are you? Must have been tired all day to take care of me and papa." Zahra stared at Aidin who was busy with Zea in the box. 

Aidin approached Zahra. Swiped the woman's forehead. 

"You go to sleep first, I'll go to bed after mom gets home." Take off the peck and sit next to the gurney. 

"Ak __" Zahra's speech was cut off when Aidin's phone on the table rang. 

The man grabbed it. Suddenly his face panicked when he saw the name that flashed on the screen. 

Doctor Fikri, she might tell you about the DNA test, what if it's positive, and I just found my wife. 

Aidin was worried, his brain was chaotic thinking about the problems that kept rolling hit him.
