LOVE STORY OF AZZAHRA

Hopefully Worried

The arrival of Gavin and Azzahra was of course welcomed with pleasure by Abi and Umi Rara. Especially Umi Rara who always wanted to know how her child's current household relationship. And because this is the weekend, surely Abi Rara was at home.

After lunch, Umi Rara immediately pulled Azzahra to her room, while Gavin himself talked with Abi Rara on the back porch of Azzahra's parents' house.

" Geulis, what now? Any sign yet?" asked Umi Rara after they reached Umi Rara's room.

Azzahra smiled at Uminya's questions that she always heard every time she visited her parents' house.

" No, Umi." Azzahra.

" You should try harder, Ra. Umi can't wait to get grandchildren from you. Must be a funny kid. If women are beautiful and similar to you. That men must be handsome and look like Gavin. Gavin's father would also be happy if you had children. It will definitely be the first grandson of Mr. David, Mr. David will certainly be a pity at all his first grandson."

Deg

Azzahra's heart felt like it was squeezed to hear Uminya who mentioned about the grandson of Dad David. Azzahra was only able to swallow the saliva while lowering his head. He again thought, if Uminya will be as excited when he found out that Gavin had a child from another woman.

" Neng, how come you daydream? Kunaon atuh?" Umi Rara who saw her son even seemed sad immediately asked Azzahra.

" Kunaon, Neng? You guys aren't fighting, are you? Umi sees no signs if you are struggling. You're not having a show of pretending to get along in front of us when you're not greeting each other, are you?" Umi Rara immediately made some allegations.

Azzahra raised his gaze now towards Uminya.

" No, Umi. Rara and Gavin are not fighting." Azzahra quickly dismissed Uminya's allegations.

" Why do you look sad?" ask Umi Rara.

" Rara just felt like Umi. It feels like Rara wants to be able to continue this way with Umi." Azzahra then embraces Umi Rara's shoulder and rests her head on Uminya's shoulder.

" Geulis, can't be so bad, Neng. Neng Rara is married, she has a husband. It is the responsibility of the husband and must follow the husband as well. Umi's job to take care of you is done, only now you take care of your husband and your future children later."

" Therefore you are fast who are active to make his child so that you have busyness and do not feel lonely. And it's not always the same with Umi. Uh, but that doesn't mean you forgot about Umi huh, Neng!"

" Athaghfirullahal adzim, it is impossible for Rara to forget Umi. Rara wants to be a bad boy?!" Azzahra denied the words of Umi Rara.

" And Umi also does not want to curse you to stone. Beautiful like this, hard-earned to hold her, raise her. Time to be cursed to be a stone?" Umi Rara joked to make Azzahra a little smile to see Uminya who indeed has a different nature from her. If she tends to be quiet, Umi Rara is more chatty.

***

While in the backyard Gavin was talking to Abi Rara about the usual thing between the son-in-law and the male in-law.

" How's your father, Gavin? Is Mr David healthy?" abi Rara asked, watching the birds.

" Thank God, Dad David is fine, Abi." Gavin.

" Thank God then. Two days ago Abi went to Jakarta with Papihnya Yoga. It just so happened that we needed to meet business relations at the hotel where Mr. David was. Abi was about to stop by your Papa, but it turns out that Mr. David is in Singapore. Your father's spirit in business deserves a thumbs up." Abi brandished his thumb feeling amazed at his business ability.

Gavin swallows his saliva when Abi Rara asks Dad David's destination to go to Singapore. Because he knows exactly the purpose of Dad David there is to take care of the delivery of the apartment to Jovanka and meet with William.

" If indeed Mr. David plans to make a hotel there, you must be proud and have a lot to learn from your father, Gavin." continued Abi Rara again.

" Ah, no, Abi. Dad David's visit there is only because there is business to be resolved there. Dad David has to meet his business partner there." Gavin is still covering up, because he can't say right away that Dad David was meeting with Jovanka and William. Because Abi Rara doesn't know about the cetita yet.

" Oh, Abi thought he had a project to build a hotel there."

" Yes, Abi." Gavin glanced at Abi Rara who still looked busy with her pet.

" Hmmm, Abi ..." Gavin paused his sentence slowly. He took a breath back to continue the words he wanted to say.

" There's something I want to talk to Abi about. Does Abi have time?" With a thumping heart Gavin delivered that sentence.

" Speak what? Just talk please. Wasn't that where we were talking?" Abi Rara responded casually to Gavin's words. Abi Rara did not realize that her daughter-in-law was already hot before she told her about the problems she faced.

" Hmmm, I want to talk to the four of you with Abi, Umi also Rara." With a heavy tone Gavin stringed those words into a sentence.

Abi Rara squinted her eyes staring intently at her daughter-in-law.

" What's up? Is this about your household? Did something happen to your household? Is your household okay?" ask Dad David to look around.

" Hmmm, I-yes, Abi. Me and Rara are fine, but ...."

" But what? What is this thing you want to say that hurt Rara? Does this make Rara sad?" Dad David's question was intimidating to Gavin. Not everything Abi Rara's reaction was like that, especially if Abi Rara knew the reality. Instantly, Gavin's tongue felt faint, the voice that wanted to be spoken on his lips also felt stuck in the throat.

" Sister, How?" Azzahra ran over to Gavin when her husband opened the door and entered her room.

" Abi you said, we're talking after the Ashar prayer." Gavin answered Azzahra's question

Azzahra glanced at the wall clock that already showed at two in the afternoon. There is still about an hour ahead, her parents will know how her husband's past. Azzahra then wrapped her hands around Gavin's waist while laying her head against her husband's chest. Not much different from Gavin, he also felt anxious and heart pounding also anxious waiting for what will happen in the next hour, when his parents find out about the existence of Gavin's extramarital son with his ex-girlfriend, Jovanka.
