LOVE STORY OF AZZAHRA

Guilt

Azzahra prepared sleeping pajamas for her husband as Gavin cleaned himself in the bathroom. Azzahra glanced towards the bathroom door for a moment then she walked out of the room towards the kitchen to prepare food for dinner. She ignored her husband's request asking her to keep company in the room.

Shortly afterwards, Gavin's leg ran down the stairs in a hurry and shouted.

" Honey ...! Honey ...!!" Gavin then entered the dining room still using a bathrobe that wrapped his body.

" What's up, brother? How do you run like that?" Azzahra immediately scrunched his forehead let alone seen by him Gavin had not yet put on the pajamas he had prepared on the bed.

" Honey, why are you here? I said 'You're with me in the room." Gavin protested against Azzahra's unwillingness to comply.

" Instead of nothing I do there, mending I prepare food for us to eat dinner, Brother." Azzahra.

" Gavin, why haven't you changed your clothes? I've prepared a nightgown for Brother Gavin" Azzahra continued.

" I'm looking for you, I'm out the bathroom you're not there making me anxious. Until I don't get to change clothes." Gavin.

" Yes now, Brother Gavin changed his clothes first, I'm warming up the food."

" Honey, leave the food first." Gavin quickly turned off the planting stove in his kitchen set.

" We'll just go to the room." Gavin then pulled Azzahra's hand to amaze the woman with her husband's attitude. But Azzahra followed what her husband wanted.

Arriving at the room, Gavin directs his body and Azzahra sits on the bedroom sofa with his arms around his shoulders.

Azzahra looked at her husband who was now turning his head on the back of the sofa with his eyes closed, and it lasted for several minutes.

" Sister, what's the matter? Brother Gavin is not as he usually is this afternoon. Is there anything that bothers Gavin's mind?" azzahra asked very carefully.

Gavin shook his head, not responding to Azzahra's question at all, making Azzahra's forehead wrinkle.

" Sister, if there is a problem the same story as me. Who knows, I can give you an opinion, don't just keep it to myself." Azzahra played her fingers with the short hairs around her jaw, causing Gavin to open her eyes and look at Azzaha.

As Gavin stared at Azzahra, Jovanka's shadow suddenly flashed through his eyes.

" Br ..." Azzahra again stroked Gavin's firm jaw. Rebutt what Azzahra did made Gavin blink until the shadow of Jovanka who had had a chance to shake was immediately lost.

" Yes, Honey?" This time it was Gavin's left hand that alternately stroked Azzahra's pretty face.

" There's a problem in the office, huh?" Azzahra guessing.

" No, no problem in the office" said Gavin.

" Why then?"

" There's a little problem with my efforts and my colleagues in Germany." Gavin lies by saying that if the company joins him and his friend is in trouble.

" Oh, that's why Steven's brother called Gavin yesterday, huh?" Azzahra recalled that Steven had contacted her husband yesterday.

" I-yes, that's why he came back to Indonesia." Gavin breathed a sigh of relief because the reason for Steven's arrival in the meantime he could make an excuse.

" He also went to the office, he wanted to sell his shares because of this problem." Gavin was honest about Steven's purpose in meeting him. He also believes that Azzahra will not be too familiar with stocks.

" Is that so bad?" ask Azzahra.

" Yes." Yeah." Gavin answered briefly.

" I pray that all the efforts that Brother Gavin is doing either outside or inside the country all go smoothly and hopefully the troubled business can be resolved well." Azzahra gave the best prayer.

" Aamiyen." Gavin. For the time being, Gavin has chosen to hide the issue about Jovanka before she gets any clarity on Steven's story in her office.

***

Gavin heads to his study after waiting for Azzahra to fall asleep. He lit his lamp and stepped onto his desk and sat his body in the chair.

Gavin opens the laptop and then he re-opens the incoming email that he had opened before. The email came in from Steven who sent a photo of Jovanka's son and Jovanka's son. A sense of tightness crept back into Gavin's chest as he stared at the little boy's face.

" Why was I so careless back then?!" muttered Gavin.

Gavin then grabbed his phone. He then contacted someone from his cell phone.

" Hello, Dad. I'm sorry to interrupt." said Gavin as his phone call was picked up by Dad David, the person he was in contact with.

" Gavin? What's the phone like tonight? Is there a problem?" ask Dad David.

" Is Dad going to bed yet?" ask Gavin.

" Dad still has work to do. What's up, son?"

" Dad has to take care of his health, that hour is still busy with work." Gavin tried to remind Dad David.

Dad David who heard his son's advice immediately chuckled.

" Dad just woke up because after this Dad had fallen asleep." Dad Davin explained.

" What's up, son?" ask Dad David to come back.

" Hmmm, Dad. Does Dad have any acquaintances who can be assigned to look for someone?" ask Gavin later.

" Why, son? Are you looking for someone? Who?" Dad David immediately investigated.

" Hmmm ..yes, Dad. I want to find someone."

" Who?" Dad David was curious.

" A more biennial kid whose face looks like mine, Dad." Gavin said honestly to Dad David.

" Working for a child similar to you? What's it for?" look for Dad David back. " What not-don't ... Ah, I hope this is not true." Dad David suspected something.

" Is Dad in front of the laptop?"

" Yes of course."

" I sent the email to Dad." Gavin then sends a photo of Jovanka's son to Dad David.

One minute later ...

" Who is he, Gavin? Who's the little boy? Why does he look like you, son?" Dad David urges Gavin to tell the truth.

Gavin took a deep breath then he said, "He's .. He's the son of my ex-boyfriend, Dad."

" Gavin?"

" I'm not sure yet, Dad."

" Have you ever been in contact with that woman?"

Gavin swallowed his saliva. " Yes, Dad. And the last time we had a relationship was about a week before Agatha and I got married." Gavin then told Dad David about Jovanka with nothing covered.

" Oh my God ..."

" Sorry, Dad." Gavin expressed regret.

" Dad has a big hand to make you like this, Gavin. All this because of Dad's fault. Because Dad can't give Dad's affection as a father to you, until you go the wrong way like that" said Dad David bitterly. Of course Dad David feels guilty. Her divorce with Amanda made her unable to give Gavin any affection, as Amanda then forbade him from seeing Gavin.
