10 Years ago. Zaky folded his shirt arms. He has an appointment to meet today. Yesterday's graduation day was exhausting, but today he was forced to leave as well. There's something important he has to do. His mother's words last night were so deep in his mind.
" Mama's time isn't long, Zaky, you know? You've completed your master's program, we're going home, aren't we?"
"Yes Ma" said Zaky, holding his mother's hand. His mother was lying in the ICCU room of one of the UK's top hospitals. Leukemia made him lie there for almost 3 weeks, waiting for the donor to graft a sum sum of the spine.
" Zaky, marry an Indonesian girl, Mama doesn't want you to marry Ree, Mama doesn't speak fluent English."
Zaky smiled. " Mom doesn't always have to talk to her."
" You're my only mama's son. We're definitely going to live together, right? After all, everyone says bad things about Ree, she's a woman who's aggressive to men, she's happy to make out in public, doesn't fit in with our culture. For 3 years Mama wanted to say that but mama didn't want you to be offended."
" Ma, I like Ree, he's aggressive, but all guys like that, right?"
Puk-puk! His mother patted Zaky's hand while glaring at his son.
" What have you done with him? huh uh?"
Zaky laughed out loud.
" Nothing, just kissing. Time can't kiss your own boyfriend?"
His mother still looked at him sharply.
" What kind of kiss?", asked the mother. Zaky is back on the edge.
" Mama wants to know about the affairs of young people. Rest."
" Zake promised Mama. Someday you'll marry a local girl. Mama doesn't want to have a son-in-law of foreign descent, even though Ree's son is a noble. After this we'll go back to the homeland, you'll have to help your father in the company."
Zaky sighed and smiled.
" Good ma."

Zaky glanced at his watch. He was standing in front of Rebecca's apartment, but Ree wasn't there. Zaky had called him and Ree had not arrived, but it had been 20 minutes for Zaky to wait.
From the end of the corridor came the laughter of several women. Zaky looked at the source of the voice, and Ree and some of his female friends were laughing for some reason. They were very scantily clad, Ree himself wearing a peach-colored mini dress with a spaghetti strap knotted at the nape, revealing the entire shoulder of his perfect neck and back.
" Dear, have you arrived?" ask Ree while kissing Zaky's lips. They speak in english.
" Where, how long?
" I went to my friend's bachelorette party to get married".", Ree was so spoiled in Zaky's arms, he smelled a pungent smell of alcohol from his body.
" Ree, did you lend me that?" ask one of his friends. Ree also nodded. He nodded and opened his apartment as he pulled Zaky's arm. Zaky was a little surprised by what he meant by "it". How surprised Zaky was when he saw 1 cond*m box in Ree's hand.
" This, I have a lot" said Ree then laughing with his friend.
" Ree, maybe you'll need one for Zaky. Haha"
Ree's friend laughed and died. Zaky's mood changed. He looked at Ree.
" You saved cond*m? that many? wh-wh-what for? I never even slept with you!"
" You're so naive, Zaky! Come on, everybody needs se*s!"
"You slept with another man?"
"of course! You don't want to sleep with me! I love you Zaky, for 3 years I survived without se*s. But you don't even want more than a kiss. What's wrong with you?!"
Mama's right.
" For me se*s only do after Ree's marriage."
"Then what if we don't get married. Are we never gonna do it?"
Zaky pressed his forehead which felt pulsating.
" Ree, it's over."
" What? no!"
" Yes Ree, enough of this relationship. We are different about principles. I will also return to Indonesia to help my father. My mom is sick. Know it? He also doesn't want to have a son-in-law of a stranger, he wants me to marry a local girl."
"What kind of stupid rules is that?!"
"My mother's stupid rules! How dare you! I'm gone, I'm gone!"
"No Zaky listen to me first. I love you, baby. If not, how could it have lasted this long, right? I always wondered what if I slept with you, but you didn't want to. So I'm looking for a Zaky diversion. Ii'm sorry. But don't leave me."
"Zake! Zakey!"
"Oh yeah, your car, you don't have to give it back to me. Consider it a gift to accompany me for three years.."
Zaky slammed the door and quickly left from there. Rebecca wept leaning against the door leaf, missing Zaky, the mysterious man who had always intrigued her.

Rebecca Watson's name echoed in her ears. Zaky immediately headed for the elevator to climb into his room. Making sure that the woman waiting for him is the same Rebecca Watson.
Arriving at his door, Slowly Zaky held his handle and pushed the door open. He saw a woman of English descent whose face was so familiar. Rebecca Watson, her ex-boyfriend, sits at her desk in a bright red office dress. Her wavy hair fell perfectly on her shoulders. He glanced at Zaky with a seductive look.
" So you're right?" said Zaky stepping in. Ree did not flinch, but sat there smiling mischievously.
" The receptionist told me that you're our investor?"
Ree got up and stood before Zaky, pretending to tidy up Zaky's tie. Zaky just stood expressionless with both hands in his pants pocket.
" Why hurry, aren't you glad I came here?"
"No."
"Hahaha, you're always what you are. Makes me even more curious." And a swipe of his hand went up to Zaky's neck.
" Don't touch me." Flat Zaky
"Have I ever listened to you?" said Ree while playing his index finger on Zaky's lips. Zaky. He got up from there and sat on the sofa crossing his legs. Ree sat on the sofa facing Zaky, crossing his legs until his thighs were exposed. Zaky immediately looked the other way.
"What do you want Ree. I'm already married. A year after we split up."
" I know. Your friend said it. I'm married too."
Zaky closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
Mercifully.
" I'm divorced now."
Shitt's.
" I don't care" Zaky said again.
" I'm just here to see the company I'm investing my shares in."
" I don't know if you're an investor."
" Watson Corporate, Ohh dear, have you forgotten my name?"
Watson. I should have known. But Watson's name is too common, right? it's the biggest investor in Resort development projects. Doggone.
" What do you think, baby? You know our position, right? You won't be able to refuse me this time."
And his laughter echoed in Zaky's room.
