Dreams of a Poor Girl

Chapter 40

Because Zulfa's condition is still weak, inevitably Dirga did a marriage contract in the hospital. Dimas and Iwan are to witness their second marriage, while Anis stands next to Zulfa's gurney holding his hand.

"Can we start the show?" ask the ruler to Dirga.

"Can, sir."

Penghulu shakes Dirga's hand to do the marriage contract.

"Bismil was born Rahmanirrahim, I marry and marry you, Dirga Zein Fernandez bin Riko Fernandez with Zulfa Nabila bint Sudarto, with a dowry of jewelry weighing 25 grams paid in cash."

"I accept the marriage of Zulfa Nabila bint Sudarto, with the dowry paid in cash," said Dirga with one breath.

"How are the witnesses? Right?"

"Well!"

"Well!"

Today, in this place Zulfa already bears a new status, namely a wife of Dirga. The man, who was his superior, had officially married her. Tears were powerless to contain, Zulfa was deeply moved by what he witnessed today. Where, a willing and sincere Dirga invited Zulfa, the girl who had been in her 3 years reign in his heart.

"Congratulations, Fa. Now you have a husband who will take care of you at all times. I beg you, after this rise up to heal!

Many people who love you want to see you as healthy as ever. Because you are the goal of happiness," said Anis.

"Thank you, Ma'am. Thank you for wanting to be the one who is always there when I need to be, and I'm sorry I haven't been able to repay Anis."

"By seeing you healed, that's enough for me, Fa. To me you are the best brother, even though we have no blood ties, but my love is sincere to you."

Anis then embraced the fragile body of Zulfa, the disease suffered makes Zulfa's weight decreases. While Dirga and the others only watched the two, the two people who loved each other even though they were not brothers.

Iwan stepped closer to Zulfa, he stroked Zulfa's head affectionately.

"We go home first, Fa. Get well soon, everyone must be waiting for you to get together," said Iwan.

"Yes, Mas. Thank you, all this time Mas Iwan has helped me a lot. There's always been and support me to this day."

"That's my promise, that I'll always be there when you need to."

After saying that, Iwan and Anis immediately say goodbye. Then followed by Dimas after, he knew if his boss needed time alone with his wife.

Now in the room lived Dirga and Zulfa who were both silent, both felt awkward especially after the word legal said.

"You rest again! Let me keep you here" said Dirga.

"Yes, sir."

"I'm no longer your boss, now our status is husband and wife. So, change the call for me, it's up to you to call what you definitely don't call me like a boss."

"Ba-good, Mas."

Nyess

Dirga's heart seemed to be watered by ice water, when he heard the call coming out of the mouth of the woman who is now his wife.

"So much better" said Dirga, then planted a kiss on Zulfa's forehead.

Zulfa closed his eyes as Dirga's lips docked on his forehead. Warm feelings spread in his heart, all feeling like a dream. Because not once did Zulfa think he could marry his boss. Either, a fortune or indeed it was already a destiny that he had to live. Zulfa was very grateful that God had brought him together with many good people.

......................

After a week in hospital, Zulfa was released. With the message should not be tired and prescribed drugs should be taken regularly.

Dirga helps pack all of Zulfa's needs, from clothes to toiletries. He did accidentally go to the office because he wanted to pick up Zulfa, although previously Iwan and Anis had offered to pick up Zulfa, but Dirga refused.

Dirga immediately held Zulfa, making Zulfa jerked in shock.

"Mas, albinism! I walk alone" pinta Zulfa.

"You've just recovered, remember the doctor said you can't be tired."

"Just get ahead, won't be tired."

"Already, what the husband said," concluded Dirga, making Zulfa sigh.

Arriving in the hospital courtyard, Dimas opened the car door so that Dirga could help Zulfa sit comfortably.

After Dirga and Zulfa got in the car, Dimas closed the door. He immediately sat behind the wheel. The car started to drive away from the hospital.

In the car, Dirga continued to hold Zulfa's hand. While Zulfa looked out the window, looking at the scenery around the road that passed.

Until a moment he realized if the car did not go to the direction of the contract. The puzzled Zulfa immediately asked Dirga.

"Mas, how are we going through here? This is not the road to the contract."

"I know, from today you will live in my house which means it is now your home as well" explained Dirga.

"But my things are still in contract."

"You take it easy, everything's cleared up in the dimas."

Hearing Dirga's words, Zulfa immediately turned his eyes away. Not because of anger, but Zulfa was embarrassed when he imagined Dimas packing his belongings. Which means including up to his clothes.

"You why? Is anyone sick again?" dirga asked as she looked at Zulfa's flushed face.

"No, Mas. Maybe the effect because this week is just lying in the hospital," said Zulfa.

"Thank God, if you're all right. If anyone's sick don't just shut up, tell me I'll feel good being a husband."

"Yes, Mum."

The atmosphere was quiet again, until the car driven by Dimas had arrived at a luxurious house. Zulfa looked at the astonishment of the house, for the first time he set foot in such a luxurious mansion.

Dimas parked his car in front of the porch, then got out of the car to open the door. Dirga and Zulfa immediately got out of the car, after both exited Dimas closed the door, then took the bag containing Zulfa's equipment in the trunk.

"Come, in! You still need enough rest for recovery."

Dirga grabbed Zulfa's shoulder and invited him into the house. Upon arriving inside, Zulfa was increasingly amazed by the contents of the house. However, Zulfa was still wondering, could it be that a house this big was only Dirga. Where are the other family members?

Dirga escorted Zulfa to his room on the second floor. Slowly and patiently Dirga helped Zulfa up the stairs. And when the two of them arrived at the door of the room, Dirga then opened the door to his room.

Zulfa slowly followed the footsteps of Dirga who entered the room, a large room with a distinctive feel of a man. Light gray paint adds to the impression that the owner is a man.

"Now you rest! Let me prepare lunch for you" said Dirga and led Zulfa and helped her to lay down on the bed.

"Mas Dirga lives alone?"

"No, there's you" Dirga teased with a smile.

"Not that, I mean before was Mas Dirga alone?"

"Not really, anyway. Sometimes Dimas also often stay here if there is more work to be done."

"Here, now rest! I'm staying in the kitchen first" Dirga continued and exited her room.
