Mr. Slovenly And Mrs. Perfectionist.
Chapters. 40. Still Same.
That morning Hazal lounged, as if there were no signs of life. The spirit of the woman seemed to be buried with the stealthy departure of Harfei.
And the silence of Harfei affected the construction of a restaurant branch in the city of C. Hazal could not think quietly, all the brains of the woman were controlled by her husband Harfei.
If Hazal usually works professionally, but this time only daydreams become his best friend. Luckily Mr. Alexander who is Hazal's business partner can understand the woman.

Hazal returns home and prepares Harfei's favorite dinner, but the man chooses to eat out with someone Hazal doesn't know about. Of course it makes the heart of the woman sick and disappointed at the same time. But he did not give up.
Still trying, Hazal tries to get Harfei to talk, but the handsome guy still dodges, and it's been a week. Still remains the same. The silence of Harfei makes Hazal even more vulnerable to anxiety and fear of loss.
Once Hazal told the process of building a branch of his restaurant in the city of C. Even the woman also asked Harfei for his opinion, he deliberately did so that he could open communication with Harfei. At least it was a good start, but instead of getting an answer or a predicate of praise, the man dodged while saying,
"Do whatever you want to do".
That was the last sentence Hazal heard until a week passed. Hazal thought things had improved after he let Harfei silence himself, but unfortunately it was only the woman's wishful thinking. Everything still remains the same.
"Ruler".
"Sonia. You just surprised me". Sonia suddenly appears at Hazal's restaurant. The woman looked hurried as if she had just witnessed something.
"What's wrong?". Ask Hazal later.
"Do you know, I saw Helena and David in front of this restaurant". Sonia is enthusiastic.
"Then?". Ask Hazal casually. It's not that she didn't ask to know about Helena and David's relationship, it's just that she hasn't been able to share her thoughts. Harfei is now the center of the woman's thinking.
"Hazal, don't you want to know their plan?. Are you going to keep quiet?. Come on Hazal, are you just gonna give up?". Ask Sonia in a row. Hazal kneels her temple and then turns to look at Sonia.
"Sonia, I just want to give up". Sonia's forehead frowned almost together, feeling astonished by the friend she thought was strong now looked weak as powerless.
"Hazal, did something happen that I didn't know about?". Ask Sonia full of questions.
Hazal exhaled heavily, then turned to sit on the sofa chair in the corner of his room.
"Mas Harfei has changed, Sonia". He said after a moment of silence.
"What do you mean?".
"For a week Harfei kept me quiet. I don't know why he ignored me. At first I thought he was just tired because Dad gave him a lot of work. Moreover, the project with Mr. Pratama has been fruitful and began many business people who glanced at Mas Harfei, even offering to cooperate". Hazal searched his sentence.
"But I was wrong, Sonia. The more days Harfei changed drastically. I barely knew him". Hazal stared blankly ahead. She imagined sweet things with her husband when she was together. Sharing joy and sorrow, laughing together, even bathing together was remembered by the brown-eyed woman. Hazal really misses her husband, Harfei Iskandar.
"Is it possible for Harfei to have another woman?".
DEG...
One simple sentence was successful in making Hazal jerked in shock, anger, heartache, and fear at the same time. It's impossible for her husband to cheat, what else to have another woman out there and forget about her, impossible!. Think Hazal.
"No. That's not possible!".
"Ruler".
"Sonia, mas Harfei could not have done such a shameful thing. I know how Harfei is". Then after a while of silence.
Sonia seems to want to calm her best friend, she holds Hazal's hand trying to strengthen the woman who is her little friend.
"Psaltery. Ii'm sorry. I don't mean to add to your burden. I just don't want my best friend to feel disappointment and heartache". Sonia said as she wiped away the tears that began to drip on Hazal's cheeks.
"I'm afraid of Sonia. What if it really happened?. I'm not ready for Sonia. We even plan to have many children and take care of them together until old age. Hix... Hicks...".
Seeing Hazal begin to sob, Sonia's heart felt pity, she pulled Hazal's body and buried the woman in her arms. Perhaps what Hazal needs right now is a warm hug from a friend.
"Sssst, relax. Nothing's gonna happen. Everything will be fine, trust me". Sonia stroked Hazal's hair gently, hoping that her best friend would calm down.
And sure enough, Hazal slowly began to shrink. It was only the silence that wrapped the two different women of that character.
****
At the office, Harfei opened his desk drawer and looked at all the photos of Hazal he got from some packages without the sender's name.
Harfei looked at the photo with an indecipherable look on his face. Then Harfei grabbed his cell phone that was on the table and contacted someone. I don't know who the man was calling, only he and God knew.
"I'm counting on you".
****
At exactly 01:00 in the morning Harfei returned home. He saw Hazal had fallen asleep. He then sat down on the edge of the bed and touched the head of the woman who had been in her silence for a week. There was a sizzling longing in there. Undeniably, Harfei's heart misses Hazal, longing for the caress of the woman he married. But given the barrage of images of Hazal with several different men made the man's heart throb again, it hurt.
He pulled his hand and then went into the bathroom.
Hazal opened her eyes. It turned out that the woman was just pretending to be asleep. He noticed Harfei's presence when the man opened the door of their room.
Hazal's tears that had been held up finally bathed his face that looked pale without being able to be weathered again.
Shortly after, the sound of the bathroom door opened and Harfei came out. Hazal closed her eyes as if pretending to be asleep. The man went up to the bed where Hazal was. The woman's forehead is wrinkled. He wanted to wake up and hug the husband he missed, but as much as possible Hazal held him back.
And all of a sudden,
CUPS.
Harfei hugged and kissed Hazal on the top of his head and buried her body in his arms.
