Mother To Anissa

Undecided

Adam rubbed his black hair rough, after Nina's departure handed him a brown envelope containing Anissa's custody lawsuit against him he was very angry, however he had to win the lawsuit. Really Adam was very dizzy made by check Della, I don't know what other game he will plan.

His phone rang to disperse Adam's thoughts, there was the name of the Event on the phone's screen. Immediately he received the call, at least hearing Zara's voice slightly lightened the burden that was in his brain and heart.

"Assalamualaikum, what's up Za?".

"Waalaikumsalam, mas I've been in the office lobby. Are you in the office?".  Answer from across

"Oh, yes I'm in the office". Adam confirmed the seat, "Tumben what's up ?".

Zara chuckled, "Not only do I think we rarely eat together, I bring lunch". Evidently

"Did you miss me?". Adam asked Zara.

"Who said?". Zara snorted in annoyance, "I've hung up on her, I'll be there soon. Assalamualaikum".

"Wa'alaikumsalam, I Love You Za".

"I Love you too". Reply Zara lirih.

"Did I hear you can repeat?". Adam's Temptation

"I've hung up the phone". Zara's cheeks meet red to hear Adam's ignorance.

***

Zara prepared the food she brought on Adam's table, putting her various dishes to taste Adam. But Adam's mind was struggling everywhere, he was not focused today as if all his energy was drained due to a letter filing custody Anissa.

"Dude?!". Call Zara umpteenth time.

Adam awoke from his thoughts, he smiled stiffly at Zara."Yeah what's up Za?".

Zara put down the spoon, then she returned the rough breath of seeing Adam at a glance."You why? Something bothering you?". Ask a probing question

Adam leaned his back against the couch, "There's just something, don't worry". Sneakily.

Zara nodded doubtfully, though she said there was something Adam was hiding from her, "Alright".

He's back to prepare lunch for Adam, "Mas, you were on the phone. For the building and other wedding preparations already 75℅. We take care of our invitations and personal matters".

Adam looked up, yes it is true that the marriage of himself and Zara is less than two months away. Preparations were made by the two great families. Although Zara had requested that the wedding be done simply, but Haydar's extended family was very opposed because that day was the most historic day for their beloved daughter.      

Adam put on a smile, "Maybe I can fit my shirt and take care of the ring on Saturday, you don't mind, do you?".

"Well, if I can't, I can take care of that myself".

Adam put the capcay in his mouth, "No, the one who married us both is why you're the one who bothered to be alone". Adam greedily chewed on the food Zara brought, "What about your boutique?".

"Alhamdulillah, smoothly next month is ready to launch new products". Zara grabbed her phone that was on the table, "Astagfirullah, I forgot to give Mr. Tono a message to pick up Anissa". Soon he sought out Mr. Tono's contact and was about to call him, but Adam's voice stopped Zara's activities.

"Thank God, my heart almost jumped out".

"Za can I ask you?". Adam finished lunch, "Who did this cook for?". While pointing at the food box that is lined up neatly on the table.

"Why?". Zara looked panicked, "Is there anything strange ?". His face grew serious when he asked Adam, "It doesn't feel good?".

"Definitely a habit, if anyone asks it answered do not even turn back the nanya".

Zara said, "I cooked all this, it must not taste good".

"Enak, it's so good I like it. If it were possible every day you would have to convince me". Clearly Adam made Zara blush in embarrassment at hearing that.

"God willing, but later if it's legal every day I will surely masakin". Zara said excitedly, while tidying up the empty lunch box.

Adam smiled happily at Zara's answer, and then he stood up and walked to the bathroom to wash his hands. Zara who saw Adam's happy expression, he was also happy to continue he also tidied Adam's workbench that looked messy with painstakingly he tidied the document on Adam's desk and rearranged it to its original place.

A brown envelope dropped out a piece of paper, but Zara didn't want to know what was written on it. But as soon as Anissa's name was also written, she immediately read the full custody of Anissa from Adam..

Adam walked up to Zara who was sitting on the couch again, "Za, let me take you home today and I'll work at home. Because I think I'm in a bad mood working in the office today".

Zara only looked up for a moment, then she took the lunchbox she had brought. A little disappointed Zara, why did Adam not tell her of her heartbreak?, why did Adam not tell her about the letter?, Why did Adam hide such a big problem from her?. Question after question kept spinning around in his mind, he increasingly felt that he was no one to Adam. One more thing Zara's question that bothers her the most, Is Adam loving her or does he still love you Della?, a successful question makes Zara's heart very slashed, making your heart and mind wobbly and doubtful. 

Along the way to Adam's house, Zara just looked up at the glass looking at the towering skyscrapers. But his mind had gone everywhere, he wanted to be angry, upset, disappointed, to Adam. But Zara's common sense still works she thinks Adam also bears a heavier burden on her shoulders.

"Bag". Call Zara, make Adam nod his head for a while then focus on the highway again."How long do you want to keep it alone?".

Adam looked over for a moment, "Save what Za?". Ask with a face that doesn't understand.

"What do you think I am?". Zara's eyes began to blur with tears, "I think we can share stories, tell each other the heavy burden that is in our hearts". Zara's tears flowed, and she brushed before Adam knew it.

"What do you mean Za, I don't understand".

"It's about Anissa". Answer Zara flat."You shouldn't have hidden such a big thing, do you consider me a stranger?".

Adam just silently heard Zara's words, until he pulled his car over at a gas station. Slightly breathing heavily, Adam arranged his heart clean to tell Zara everything.

"I don't want you to think about Za". Holding Zara's hand, "I'm sorry if my silence makes you look like a stranger. I just don't think there's a good time to tell you what's really going on".

Zara stared at the nanar, what Adam said was true. Zara's tears fell without excuse, "You should have told me, at least you have a place to complain. Maybe I can help".

"Thank you for understanding my position".

Adam smiled, stretched out a hand rubbing Zara's tears."Don't cry because of me".

Zara's sobbing, "Sorry to worry you".
