Hate But Love

39 (season 2)

Zara went straight home to the hostel. He came home on foot because the cafe was quite close to the hostel. Arriving at the boarding house, he immediately threw himself in the bed. Zara put her hand on her forehead and closed her eyes.

"What should I do now? Do I have to tell Zidan about Karina's threat?" inner Zara is confused.

Before long, his phone rang. Zara picks up her phone and turns out to be a video call from Zidan. Zara developed her smile. He confirmed his position before raising the video call. Zara immediately shifted the green button to answer the video call from Zidan.

"Hi" said Zara. He smiled faintly at Zidan who was also laying himself on the bed.

"Where from? Why did you pick up the phone?" ask Zidan.

"From the bathroom," Zara answered lying. He did not want to talk about his meeting with Karina.

"But where are you again? How come it's not in your apartment?" ask Zara to investigate. Zidan smiled broadly.

"Again at mommy's house. Why?" ask Zidan back.

"Oh, pantesans. Kirain again where it is" said Zara.

They talked long enough. Over the next week, Zara will be taking her final semester exams. He also had permission for Zidan not to enter work. Although it was hard for Zidan because for one week he did not see Zara, he also did not want to interfere with Zara's study time.

Almost an hour of video calls. A lot of what they talk about includes their relationship going forward. Zidan only wants Zara to be patient in a moment, because there are some things that he must solve so that his relationship with Zara is not interrupted by anyone.

After Zidan asked permission from the caretaker at the time, Zidan also promised himself to make Zara happy and not let anyone hurt Zara. He just needs Zara. The woman he will forever love and marry.

"You're okay. I'll see you later. I always miss you, Zara. If you have time, do not forget to call me. I won't call you first for fear of interfering with your learning" Zidan said before closing the video call.

"Yes. Wait after the exam is over, I'll come back to you, hehe," Zara replied. They both smile. And finally, the video call ended.

Zara stared at the ceiling of her dorm room. He was the same, always missing Zidan every day even though they often met. But there is a sense of sadness and uneasiness when remembering Karina. The woman will do anything if Zara still doesn't leave Zidan.

Elsewhere, Zidan was agitated. He thought about how he planned to get rid of Karina without hurting Zara.

"Darling, mommy can come in for a second?" asked Alina who was already standing outside Zidan's room.

"Just enter Mom, the door is not locked" Zidan replied.

Alina opened the door and she went into Zidan's room. Alina sat on the edge of the bed. His hand rubbed Zidan's hair gently. Zidan turned his head against Alina's lap.

"What's wrong?" ask Alina.

"Zidan is confused Mom," Zidan replied.

Zidan turned to sit and hugged Alina from the side with her head leaning on Alina's shoulder. Every time there is a problem that is difficult to solve, just a whip from his mommy that seems to be a cure for his baldness.

"Mom, man,"

"Yes?"

"Zidan likes someone. We decided to have a more serious relationship. But right now our relationship is in trouble. Zidan confused Mom, Zidan what to do now?" zidan.

Alina took a slow breath. He knew it felt helpless. When he had to fight for the sake of his loved ones but the situation said otherwise.

"He's special Mom. She's like mommy. Well, gentle, loving and she's independent. That's what makes Zidan like him. When Zidan looked at her it felt very shady. Zidan is comfortable" Zidan said.

"Why is Zidan telling me a story now? Who is that girl?" ask Alina curiously.

"His name is Zara, Mom. She's a simple girl that Zidan wants to marry. It's just Mom" Zidan replied. Alina scrunched her forehead.

"Zara?" alina asked to confirm that the name she heard was indeed Zara. Alina was a little surprised.

"Yes, what's wrong Mom?" ask Zidan confused.

"Zara's a friend of Raffa's college? The girl that went to Mommy's house, right? Or is there another Zara?" alina panicked.

"Wait on! Mommy said what? Raffa's friend?" zidan asked in surprise. During this time he did know if Zara attended one campus with Raffa. But he also did not think they would be a class.

"Is this Mom's guy?" ask Zidan. He pulled out his phone and showed a picture of Zara. Alina looked at the photo intently.

"Not wrong anymore. He is Raffa's friend. Mommy told me that time, baby. And you know each other? Zara has been here several times as well" said Alina.

"Zara came here a few times but never told me the same story. Wh why? Is he close to Raffa too? Damnit damnit! Why don't I know about this, "inner Zidan.

Alina looked at Zidan who had now changed his face. Alina is shocked to learn that Zara is the girl Zidan loves. Alina has been trying to get Raffa closer to Zara.

"Zidan?" call Alina softly. Zidan looked at Alina. He smiled thinly.

"For Mom, someone wants Zidan to ask Raffa" Zidan said. He went out of his room. Alina wants to stop Zidan but doesn't have time. Alina was worried that they would fight. Alina followed Zidan to make sure everything.

Zidan's headed to Raffa's room. He just wanted to ask about his relationship with Zara. He knocked on Raffa's door several times. It was seen that he could not wait to see Raffa. Shortly after, Raffa opened the door. He looked at Zidan and smiled faintly.

"Bang Zidan, what's wrong?" ask Raffa.

"Follow brother for a moment" said Zidan. He pulls Raffa's hand and takes her to the backyard. But Alina hurriedly approached the two of them.

"Zidan, don't." said Alina hanging.

"Zidan just wanted to ask Raffa Mom. Mommy doesn't have to worry. Zidan won't fight Raffa" said Zidan, who knows Alina is worried about them both. Alina nodded and left the two of them.

Raffa and Zidan were already sitting on the seats that were in the backyard. Raffa and Zidan were silent to each other. Raffa had no idea what Zidan was going to ask him.

"Raffa knows Zara?" ask Zidan without further ado.

"Yes," Raffa answered briefly. He was not surprised at all by Zidan's question.

"How many times has Zara come home?" ask Zidan again. He stared at the expressionless Raffa.

"Don't know. Raffa only took her once. But it seems like these few days often come because mommy asked for it," replied Raffa honestly.

"Raffa likes Zara?" ask Zidan again.

Raffa did not answer. He was silent for a moment.
