Exchange Myself for Justice

Chapter 25

Sometimes my lips can't be conditioned when dealing with my rebellious wife. My intention wanted to pamper her, but somehow when I saw her attitude that always rejected my presence, made my mouth itch to give her words that hurt her.

Ah, you suck. I am a man so stiff and cold that I could not be more gentle with my own partner. My heart is full of pity to see her tears shed.

I felt guilty when I remembered the cheating I had done so that his life suffered. Yes, I admit that maybe my mistake was so great that he hated me so much, undeniably, I was an ordinary human being, sometimes I could be afraid when faced with material whose value was very tempting.

Honestly, Mahendra Husni was the first person to ever offer me a bribe that was worth so much during my time as a judge. Plus the persuasion by the prosecutors made me finally accept cooperation in the fraud. Although my conscience strongly rejects, but my worldly lust goes against everything.

I was forced to break my vows and cheat on the great trust that I have held so high. However, Zahira's presence thwarts our rotten plans. Actually my little heart was very grateful to him at that time, when I finished deciding the trial by giving a verdict in accordance with the applicable article. My heart felt relieved that I could finally escape from that despicable act.

Ah, if only I could repeat the time, then I wouldn't want to try to do the deed. And maybe Zahira will not be like this, she will not lose her future, and in the end she married an irresponsible man and had children in a marriage outside the law.

But all has passed, if all had not happened, of course he would not be mine at this time. This seems to be all part of God's plan.

There's nothing I have to regret anymore, now I have to think about how I can get my wife's heart, and make her happy to live with me. It seems I have to change the attitude that has been fairly stiff and cold.

Long time I kept silent on the balcony staring at the beautiful moonlight, I dissolved in daydream thinking how I could fix my mistake to Zahira.

***

This morning I woke up early, as I usually take care of baby Zafran first, after my baby is comfortable and back to sleep, I want to go out of the room. But my eyes caught the unsettling figure of the man last night asleep on the sofa.

I just realized that she wasn't in bed with me, it was worth it that I slept comfortably. Ah, it's good that he knows himself. I immediately came out to perform my duties as a wife.

"Sir, what does Mas Zico usually have for breakfast?" ask the aunt who has been busy in the kitchen.

"Master is usually just breakfast bread and white milk, Non," replied Bibik.

"Oh, if it's fried rice breakfast, don't like it, Bik?" ask again.

"No, Non, sir doesn't like heavy breakfasts."

"Hmm, okay. Does he like toast?"

"Like, whose name is bread he likes."

I immediately took a few slices of bread and burned them in the toaster, and I brewed a glass of warm milk. After completing my task. Immediately I went back to the room to make sure the judge was awake.

When I came in, it turned out that he was already playing with his son. I don't know since when the baby woke up, but when I left he was sleeping.

"Where?" he immediately sat down from the bar.

"Ah, that, just finished making breakfast. Do you want breakfast now?" aska.

"You made me breakfast?" tanyanya could not believe it.

"Hmm, don't you want me to do my duty as a wife" I replied indifferently as I provided the man with a change of clothes.

"What are you doing?"

"You're providing change of clothes for you."

"Just take it easy. I'm not on duty these few days," he said tofu.

I was confused by the taste of the Man, what kind of casual clothes he liked. Because I saw her clothes pretty much neatly arranged in the closet. I looked at her who was holding Zafran.

"Mas, may I know what kind of casual clothing you mean?" I ask, it doesn't feel wrong, does it, if I ask?

"Whatever you think is suitable, then I won't refuse," he replied making me a little relieved, it turns out he's a not so complicated man.

I immediately chose clothes that felt suitable on his body. Finished taking care of his father, now I turn to take care of his son, which is to bathe the little baby.

"Give it to me, Mas, I'll bathe him," I asked Zafran who was in his arms.

"Let me bathe."

"Don't, you won't be able to" I refused very worriedly. Maybe she could bathe a baby.

"Don't underestimate me, don't bathe Zafran, just bathe Uminya I can," he said so Absurd. My face immediately flushed.

"No need to be weird, Mom. Bring Zafran here, I'll bathe him." I immediately grabbed the baby.

"Aiss... Wait a minute, don't get angry, your face won't be pretty anymore."

I stared lazily, uninterested in his chatter. He immediately undressed the tiny baby so that it was plain.

"Za, do you feel like I and Zafran look alike?"

The uhuukk!

I drooled myself when I heard the right question. I did not dare to look at his face. What would I do if he found out the truth.

"That's just your feeling" I replied trying to stay calm. I immediately took Zafran and brought him into the bathroom.

Finished bathing Zafran, I immediately dried with the towel provided, but he took over my work.

"Let me put her clothes on here."

"But-but..."

"There you take a shower. Get ready, I'll take you and Zafran for a walk to the beach. You've never been around this island of Bengkalis, have you?" he said in a slightly soft tone, I stared in disbelief.

Is this guy really in good faith with me? Or just fiction. O Allah forgive me for always prejudicing him. Why don't I appreciate his good intentions. It is undeniable that I also want to get out of the place that has been imprisoned for several months and Zafran.

I'd better take the offer while the mood's good. I also want to see the free view out there. I just nodded without resisting, and immediately darted into the bathroom.

After the bath, I saw Zafran was neatly made by his father. He gave the little baby to me.

"It's holding, it looks like he's been thirsty from earlier fussy, wants ASI maybe," he handed it to me. After that, she went to the bathroom to clean up.

Seriate....
