Jacob And Alesha: Mafia

The Little Happiness That Means

Inside the meeting room, Alesha and Jacob are sitting with several other SIO agents.

There was Mr. Frank approaches Jacob, and asks why Theora could cry, and Jacob replies that Theora was crying because Jacob had been demanding, and yells at her to tell her where the five SIO professors are.

Actually Mr. Frank hesitates about the answer Jacob gave. According to him, how can a mafia cry just because it is yelled at continuously, yes even though the mafia is a woman, it feels strange, like it makes no sense.

"Jack..." Alesha leaned her body against her husband's chest. I don't know why Alesha is feeling sleepy right now. Maybe because last night she was sleep-deprived because she was worried about her husband, Jacob.

"Hm.. What, honey?" Reply Jacob, gently. He immediately hugged Alesha's body while peeping the top of his wife's head covered by a hijab cloth.

Alesha did not answer, the drowsiness further made her eyes opiate to be closed.

"You're sleepy, huh? Hm.."

Alesha nodded slightly.

"You better get home now, Taylor will take you. Take a break, " Jacob said as he rubbed his wife's cheek.

"I'll go home with you" replied Alesha.

"Don't, Al, I definitely won't be home soon, you better go first. I'll be fine here."

"No way!"

"Pity of Alshiba, Alesha. What if she cries?"

Alesha pensively for a moment. It's true what Jacob said.

"Al, I'll be fine."

"But don't go home all night, I'm waiting for you, and I won't go to sleep until you get home!" Alesha took herself out of her husband's arms.

"Yes, honey. Yasudah, you go home now yes" Jacob stroked Alesha's back.

"Jack!" Suddenly Rendi appears, and approaches Jacob in haste.

"What's up, Ren?" Ask Jacob back.

"Mrs. Frank called you into his room."

"What?" Jacob's forehead was puzzled. "What's wrong?"

"There are things to talk about" replied Rendi.

Jacob immediately glanced at his wife, Alesha.

"You hear? There is an important matter to be discussed by Mr. Frank. You go home now."

Alesha nodded small. She doesn't want to go home right now, she still wants to be with Jacob, but she is also worried about her baby, Alshiba at home. So, yasudah, the important thing is the current condition, and Jacob's state is fine.

"Ren, did you see where Taylor was?" Ask Jacob.

"Taylor?" Rendi's forehead is crimped. "Personal bodyguard Lady Laura?" Ask Rendi. Yes, what Rendi knows is that Taylor is Laura's personal bodyguard, a mistress who is one of the few people who became the largest shareholder in SIO. Rendi knows because he used to love to see Laura who was always accompanied by Taylor when visiting SIO.

"Yes. You seen her?"

"No," Rendi shook her head. "Is he really here?"

"Yourfy.." Well, at least Jacob knows that Rendi didn't see Taylor. "Yes, then thank you. I'll find Taylor first to drive Alesha home."

Then Jacob gets up with Alesha, and leaves Rendi to find Taylor.

...*****...

Turning to Tessa, he is currently in an apartment with his son, Nicholas, and three female servants, not to forget there are some men who SIO sent to be a bodyguard.

In her room, Tessa is lying on her side facing her sleeping prince.

It is said to feel better, no, to feel worse neither does.

Flat.

Maybe that's what Tessa feels. All flat. Unstoppable sadness again turned him into a moody, untouchable. Although there were a few servants talking, Tessa remained mute.

Tessa still does not believe in Levin's sudden departure, Tessa does not believe that if Levin is really dead, Tessa does not believe that she now holds the status of a widow. Tessa doesn't believe, really doesn't. The reality he was facing right now, Tessa preferred not to believe him. Despite being sick, very sick, Tessa could not escape, her solitude now pierced her heart. He needs Levin, he needs a husband who can accompany him. Tessa has pity on her son, Nicholas needs his father to grow up.

Then how's Tessa gonna do? His heart refuses to accept Levin's death, but his mind insists on letting go. Even at the last seconds of Levin's dead body, Tessa could still feel the warmth of her late husband.

Why does Tessa have to go through this? What harm? He just wants to live a happy, quiet life with his little family.

"Levin...." Lirih Tessa's. "Back away..."

Tessa slapped her face on the curve of her son's neck.

"Nick, Momy's sorry... Hiks, Dady's gone, baby..." Tessa started crying. Any more? Yep. Tessa is devastated by the fate she must pass from this moment onwards.

Raising his son alone, should be as firm, and as strong as possible for the sake of a bright future for Nicholas.

Tessa needs someone to be able to hug her right now. He needs Levin, but he's alone, alone.

"Levin, hiks... Levin...."

Lamenting the solitude with a cry, that was all Tessa could do right now. Levin's departure is grief, Nicholas's whereabouts are his strength. But his heart was still too weak to truly shake.

...*****...

By nightfall, around 19:15 WIB, Jacob arrived at his mansion with his men as well as Bastian, and his four male comrades.

Tired up? Certainly is. Very even. Therefore, Jacob immediately chose to go to his room. However, upon arriving in the room, Jacob did not find the whereabouts of his wife, and son. The room is empty.

"Oncea...." Call Jacob.

"Darling...." Again, and still no one said.

"Lil Ale's...."

"Alesha's in mom's room, Jack," Sharon said.

"In mom's room? Why is it here?" Ask Jacob.

"Let's know, the mother asked for it earlier" Sharon replied as she spread her shoulders.

"Owh, okay...."

Sharon leaves while playing with her phone, while Jacob enters her room. He intends to take a bath, and clean his body first before meeting his two loved ones.

Not long after, maybe only about fifteen minutes, Jacob was already wearing his casual clothes. Knee-length jogger pants, and plain grey t-shirt. Jacob would rather wear such clothes at night than have to wear a nightgown.

After his body was cleared again, and perfumed, Jacob hurried himself to go to the place where Alesha, and Alshiba were, his mother's room.

Chequek.

"Assynolt...." Jacob said as he slowly opened the door of his mother's room.

"Waallaikumussalam's chat... Uh, I'm home" Alesha replied with a bright smile.

Jacob was a little surprised because he found that his wife was wearing a negligee on her arms, neck, and waist there was a rubber wrinkle. Not to mention that his arm was only as wide as Jacob's palm.

Jacob's smirk is instantly formed when strange thoughts begin to spin in his head as a result of seeing his wife's smooth arms and neck.

"Dede, I'm coming home, noh" Alesha asked the baby to talk. Alshiba himself is now in his sling.

"Why are you dressed like that, what if my men see you?" Reproof Jacob.

"No, they'll knock on the door first if they're looking for me, and I've put my jacket, and my veil," Alesha pointed to the side of the mattress where there's a jacket, and a veil.

"Easy way to breastfeed. You see, I deliberately wear the rubber."

"Owh is..." Jacob nodded his head. "Traced who?" Goda.

"Of course Alshiba, who else! Huh!" Alesha grunting.

"Alshiba is all, hmm?" Jacob moved both of his eyebrows with an increasingly seductive gaze.

"Don't think anything, Jack!"

"I'm just asking, baby."

"That's it, you think I don't know what's going on in your mind right now!"

"What indeed?" Jacob advanced his face, eroding the distance with his wife.

"Hey, hey, don't start!"

"You haven't answered my question, baby."

"Jack!"

Cup..

One gentle kiss finally landed on Alesha's lips.

"That's enough!" Alesha rebelled, and forcibly released the kiss her husband gave her.

"Ah, you are! Good thing you're out!" Alesha stared intently at her husband. "Rather than you think about the no-no, while I myself still can not fulfill what you think, mending now you are carrying, and play with Alshiba for a while. I want to go to the kitchen, I'm hungry."

"Tell me if you want to avoid" Jacob replies as he takes over his daughter's body.

"No, I'm hungry. I haven't eaten from lunch."

"Pity. You're there, Alshiba will be here with me."

"All right then, Big Guy," Alesha immediately got off the bed, and immediately put on her jacket and veil. Then he walked out of his mother-in-law's room.

While Jacob, after Alesha's body disappeared from behind the door, he began to talk to Alshiba who continued to pay attention to him.

"Hi, baby."

Jacob gently rubbed the face of his little angel. Together with the calmness of the sense that is whack his heart now, a happy smile was also engraved considering the story of his love with his wife who has now been fruitful.

"Dad loves you, baby," Jacob put a soft kiss on Alshiba's cheek. As a father, Jacob was really happy because his little daughter was still able to survive despite being born prematurely.

Seeing Alshiba is like seeing Khalid. Jacob remembered his now deceased son. Each after performing the obligation to prostrate at the end of the salutation, Jacob prayed, and sent forth the chant of the holy verse he had memorized to his son. Jacob will never forget, never. Khalid was his son, a son whom he loved. But all Jacob could do now was send as many prayers as possible for his son's salvation, and happiness in the barzah realm.

"You have to hold on, baby. I'll do whatever it takes to keep you growing, and be the pride of your father, and your mother."

Jacob raised Alshiba's body to get close to his face, then, Jacob placed his cheek on his baby's cheek. "Beautiful father's little angel. Alshiba Sanum's."

It was so quiet to be so close to Alshiba. Jacob's life felt much more complete, and meaningful.

"Shiba, dear...." Jacob looked back at the baby's face with a smile so sweet.

"Shiba Dedi.... Little angel dad."

It is also fun to have a baby. When tired, Jacob could console himself by seeing the peaceful face of the princess.

Since three weeks ago Alshiba was born, joy, and sadness churned into one. Whether you have to be happy or grieving, which is certainly the most regretful, because his presence can not give spirit to the wife.

"Sorry dad, baby. Dad was always angry mother, father was too busy with the work of father. I thought you were okay, I didn't know that you were too weak to hold you both. Mother also never said that he was weak. But I should have understood, that afternoon, the day before you were born, you called me, but I was indifferent. I thought you were okay, even I snapped at the time," Jemari Jacob stroked Alshiba's face gently, who seemed to be sleeping. "Dad knows your mother's physical condition is not strong to accommodate both of you, but I think you are really strong because you rarely see your mother complain about her pregnancy."

Jacob kissed the baby's forehead. "Sorry father yes, dear, you should now be the same brother you are still in the mother's womb, and born normally. I'm sorry, honey."

After a while, Alesha returned with her mother-in-law, Laura.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't kiss your granddaughter for too long, Jack!" Reproof Laura.

Alesha only smiled when she heard her mother-in-law's words.

"Alshiba hasn't slept, has he?" A familiar voice suddenly sounded. Sharon, Jacob's younger sister, sneaked into her mother's room and walked over to Jacob. "Yes, Alshiba hasn't slept. Jack, come on, put him in bed."

"What do you want to do?" Jacob looked at his sister's face.

"I'm just going to ask him to play or talk. It's okay, Alesha?" Sharon looked towards Alesha.

"Yes," Alesha nodded with a smile.

"Look? Quickly put him on the bed!" Sharon's Word.

"All right!" Jacob rolled his eyes with a puff. Finally, he obeyed his brother's orders.

"Haiy, Mona....." Sharon was so excited. He made a video call with his brother, Mona at this time.

"Hey, Haris, Look! You got a friend to play with later."

"Geez, where do I want to see my niece." Mona said enthusiastically. Not to forget also the little man Jacob's nephew, and Sharon who is now in the lap of his mother, namely Haris.

"Ah, funny thing, my goodness!! "Mona Girang. "Let's try to have time to visit. I want to come hang out with you guys."

"Pity.. Ahhaha..." Jacob Ledek.

"Review you, Jack! If you had replaced me to become the CEO of the company, I would have gathered! "Sebony Mona. "Mother, can't I take a few days off? Mom's company is doing well. Textile factories, and energy drinks are already conducive, resorts in the Southeast Asian region have no problems, oil mining also has no constraints. The CEOs, bosses, and the board of the subsidiaries can get their allotment off, why can't I? " Mona sulking. "Even Wiliam also who served as the head director in the company his parents could take a vacation. I want a vacation too."

Laura chuckled as she heard the child sulking like a child.

"It's okay if you want to take a vacation, but someone has to take your place, Mona." Laura Canda.

"There's Jacob! Just tell him, let him know how dizzy it is to take care of the parent company! "

"No! I've taken my ration off, I told my assistant to take my place for a while! " Remember Jacob quickly.

"Ish you are! " Mona glared his eyes at Jacob.

"What's? You gonna fire me? " Reply Jacob who did not want to lose.

"Mom, come on, I want to come get together. Will you have fun and get together without me, William, and this handsome Haris? " Mona is still sulking.

"Haris, and only William was brought here, he's sure to like Alshiba, and you're taking care of the company. " It looks like Jacob is indeed happy to tease his brother.

"No! Mother, I beg you..."

Laura was silent for a moment with an expression of a small smile that had yet to fade from her face. Laura is considering Mona's decision to seek permission to take a leave of absence. Actually it could be if Mona wants to leave for a few days, but Laura also needs to make sure if her companies will continue to run stable even though the main CEO, Mona is on vacation.

"Well you can take a vacation. Tell Irene to make you beautiful for a while." Laura said.

"really? Aaaaaa, thank you, mother." Mona shouted in excitement. Finally, he could also take a vacation, and slightly release his burden as the main leader of a parent company owned by his mother. "Luckily there's Irene, the secretary who's always reliable, so I can take a vacation, hehehehe."

When the husband, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, was so cool to invite Alshiba to talk, and play, Alesha even fell silent with a sincere smile that carved on her face.

Blissfully.

That was what Alesha felt at this moment.

*Who are the blessings of your Lord that you deny?*

The quotation from the verse in Ar-Rahman's letter made Alesha conscious. His life was so beautiful, despite many trials, and tribulations, but it was all a blessing that God gave to his servant in order to be more aware. The grace that is always bestowed even in bad circumstances is a favor that should be grateful.

Alesha was very grateful. His life could be much better, and he will also continue to strive to be a servant who is sholihah, mother, and wife in accordance with the advice of Islam as well as the guidance that has been taught by Nabinya. The hope now is that he can follow in the footsteps of His Majesty's wife SAW.
