MARRIED

S2 - Copy Paste

Happy reading 😊

***

That's how gossip spreads so quickly especially if the news is related to a scandal. Maybe now everyone in Rayyan's company is talking about her and Zahra. Rayyan did not know who was the first person in her office to spread the rumor. But he believes that Nadine is the main source.

Rayyan was so sure to suspect Nadine because she was the only one who came to Bali and caught her coming out of Zahra's room. Although Nadine does not work in her office, but Rayyan believes Nadine has her own intentions. It could be because of feeling angry at him after their quarrel at the project site, or because of his dislike of Zahra.

The office hours passed a few minutes ago. But Zahra and Rayyan are still busy with their work that was delayed due to Zahra's crying drama.

"You want to go overtime, Zah?" ask Ms. Meta while tidying up her bag.

"No, ma. It's done, ma'am Meta wants to go back now?"

"I'll wait until Rayyan comes out of the room."

Zahra nodded her head with a smile, then turned off her laptop and started packing.

"Let's go home now, Zah" said Rayyan who had just walked out of her room.

The man held up his briefcase with a big smile as he walked towards the Meta and Zahra desk.

"Mother Meta with us, Meta's house is in the same direction as Zahra right?" continued Rayyan.

"That's okay, sir. My husband picked me up, it's in the front."

"How come we're going down with ya ma'am?" Zahra said while holding the hand of Meta.

Ms. Meta smiled, then rubbed the back of Zahra's hand gently. "Udah I said if you do not need to be afraid, there is also a Rayyan sir who is ready to protect you." Bu Meta glanced at Rayyan with a smile.

"So you're more fond of Meta's hand than mine?" Rayyan looked at her right hand with a look of disbelief.

Zahra blurted her lips, Rayyan was always jealous at the wrong time.

"Come down, the husband of Meta will wait at last below." added Rayyan as he grabbed Zahra's hand and held her.

The three come down together, although Meta bu itself feels awkward because it must be in the middle of two people who are kasmaran this but try hard to hide it in front of the public.

Zahra was visibly riled up as the elevator was about to reach the lobby. He knows for sure he will be more crowded discussed, especially with the current condition where Rayyan's hand grips his hand tightly.

The sound of the elevator sounded. Rayyan stepped out in Zahra's arms, followed by Meta's mom behind them. This is the first time Rayyan has shown her connection to Zahra while in the office. And of course this attracts employees who are in the lobby, even some of them deliberately photograph and video the moment. Of course for the next gossip material hehehehe....

After dinner, Adit asks Rayyan to meet him in his study. Rayyan already knew what the reason his papa asked him to meet it, surely his papa had heard rumors that circulated in his office all day.

Tok...

"Sit. Do you know why you told me to come here?" Adit spoke in a serious tone. His gaze looked like a tiger that had been ready to pounce on its prey.

Rayyan nodded, then sat down on the single sofa opposite her papa.

"Can you explain the real thing, Rayyan?" the angry tone began to come out, but Adit still held him back. He must know the truth from his son.

"Tell the truth. Don't lie to Papa, and there's nothing you cover up to protect yourself or Zahra, Rayyan. In this case it is not only your name that is being discussed, but also the company. If this news gets outside and the investors hear the grapevine of this news, they'll definitely underestimate you."

Rayyan nodded, then inhaled oxygen to calm herself down and began to explain the true events to her papa. The incident where he whined to sleep in Zahra's room while in Bali even though Zahra refused, even Rayyan also explained what happened when he and Zahra were together.

Amidst Rayyan's explanation, Salma entered the workspace to participate in listening to her son's explanation. She was so shocked when her husband came home from work with such a sloping news.

"We don't sleep together in that sense, Pa... Ma's.... We're just sleeping next door, yaaaa... Rayyan hugged Zahra anyway." Rayyan scratched her head as she began to tell him something that should have been her secret with Zahra.

"Same.. kissing doang. It's really just that, Pa... Ma's.... There is nothing else, especially regarding intimate relationships and the like." continued Rayyan.

"Do you want to sleep with Zahra? You can marry her, Rayyan. You don't have to do something like this! What if at that time there was a Satpol PP operation?" adit said with a fury.

"Try you tell Papa Mama if you want to get married with Zahra, we must allow it, Rayyan. Not until you do something like this. How will you explain this to the Zahra family? They will hate you because you are just like their daughter." Adit added.

"Sorry Pa... Ma..." Rayyan replied with a bow. He regretted not thinking that far. He probably wouldn't care about the gossip spread in his office, but he forgot not to think about the Zahra family.

"Run serious relationship with Zahra. Don't just take good care and use Zahra. You can also end up in Eowyn's hands." Adit warns and is answered with a nod of the head by Rayyan.

"Rest, Papa know today you're tired."

Shortly after his papa speech, Rayyan left his papa's study. Adit was still trying to contain his anger, then turned to look at his wife who was sitting next to him. Salma even seemed to hold back a laugh at him.

"Why laugh?" ask Adit to be confused.

"You don't know why?" Salma asked back, and shook her head.

"Rayyan is your real copy paste. Twenty years ago, if the late papa knew his son liked to bring his girlfriend to date in his apartment, papa would have been angry like gini. I'm really, right?"

Salma's explanation just made Adit flutter. Salma was right, she used to do the same thing as Rayyan. Luckily no one knew about it, so he was safe from his father.

Adit sighed, then pulled Salma's body in his arms.

"I forgot that the fruit fell not far from the tree." said Adit softly while landing a kiss on Salma's forehead.
