My Choice of Woman

Episode 46's

“Why are you following me? Can't you wait at that front stop?” asked Farah who was a little upset that Ray was following her.

“I just run my job, which is to make sure you are safe until home,” replied Ray smiling.

Farah walked back. He is tired of having to drive Ray away all the time, but Ray still follows him, even Ray is willing to wait when Farah leaves and wait when Farah comes home. And that's been done for a few days.

At first Farah was afraid to meet with Ray, but this time Farah felt like Ray now was not the Ray he used to be. Ray who used to like to exchange anything for money, now turns into Ray who is a little simpler.

Farah let Ray follow her. He walked very fast, he felt this drizzle dropping his hydrometeor particles with more intensity often. Farah had to take shelter immediately, she didn't bring an umbrella today.

True to Farah's guess, it rained heavily. He was forced to take shelter at a stop opposite the gate of his housing.

I am a little more heading home. Why didn't I bring an umbrella!

Farah in his heart.

Farah was sitting in the chair of the stop, she was still holding the flower pot given by Ray.

Ray was deliberately sheltered at the stop with Farah. He likes to see the look on Farah's face that is a little upset. On the way he did not talk to Farah, he only saw Farah's back walking in front of him. Ray enjoyed this precious time.

Farah snorted in annoyance, why did Ray also follow her up to this stop.he was already prepared with his pepper spray if Ray dared to mess around. But Farah only saw Ray silent and a hint of a smile formed from his arch. Farah hopes Ray doesn't do things he doesn't want to do.

Farah stood up, she walked towards the edge of the stop. He stretched out his hand, raising his hand. Catching the rain falling. Farah closed her eyes feeling the raindrops rippling between her hands. He likes the rain. And he smiled.

Ray was stunned by the woman standing on the edge of the stop. He loved to see Farah smile. He hoped that time would stop, so that he could see the smile for longer. Even Ray had no idea why this simple woman could so captivate his heart.

I hope, I hope he's tied to my shoulder blade.

Ray prayed in his heart.

Suddenly lightning struck, its light made a state of light for a second. Then a rumbling sound boomed loudly, deafening the ears. It seems like the Universe is wrathful with the prayer that has just been offered.

Farah screaming. The lost smile he had carved earlier swapped with a look of fear. Ray saw it all, he just begged the owner of the universe. Why did that smile fade again. Ray lost a precious moment that shouldn't have belonged to him.

Farah took the flower pot that Ray had given her earlier. He wants to go home soon. Farah was already standing at the edge of the stop, she was about to step in the rain.

Ray finds out Farah is leaving, he knows Farah can be desperate to get soaked. He gave her the umbrella he kept behind his jacket. Ray opened the umbrella and gave it to Farah.

“I know, you want to go home soon. Take this umbrella, so you don't get wet with the rain. I don't want you to get sick,” Ray said as he gave the umbrella to Farah.

Farah looked at Ray.

How're you?

Ray smiled. “No need to worry about me, bring this umbrella.”

Farah took it, and immediately walked in the rain that fell. He looked at Ray.

Ray just smiled and waved his hand, looking at Farah who was walking away from his sight. Today Ray feels happy as well as feeling sad. He loved the sweet arches Farah carved in the look on his face. But Ray was sad because the beauty disappeared so quickly when it had not been fully binding.

Farah walked in the rain, lucky to have a good man give her an umbrella. He can't wait to get home soon. She hoped her husband would come home. Right in front of the house, Ilham's car does not exist. Farah was disappointed, she was crying. Farah really hopes her husband comes home today.

Farah went into the house and placed a flower pot that Ray had given her in her room right by the window. Farah looked at the flower pot that had such a unique motif. Farah feels Ray has a lot of love and love that may be promising. But Farah who has a husband who is now out of nowhere. Farah felt like she had fallen into a bottomless ocean. She was crying again.

Farah picked up her phone, tapping the screen looking for the name Ilham. He tried to contact her again. Still no answer. Farah cried hard enough that her chest felt full of disappointment.

Then Farah's cry stopped. He stared with a sharp look. He wiped his wet cheeks from his tears.

“I'm not a weak woman!” said Farah to himself.

“Shouldn't I cry like this.” Farah wiped her still watery eyes. “Will I prove that I am able to counteract this taste!”

Ray came home with a grim look like a moon covered in pitch-black clouds. He settles down on a sofa that is soft like velvet. He looked up at his head in the sky. Ray breathed a long breath.

The servants who saw Ray immediately brought a change of clothes. They saw his young master coming home in soaked clothes again. Ray changed his clothes. He asked Mr. Sudiro to call a cook who taught him to make chocolate sandwiches.

The day was about to change, Ray with a flat gaze waiting for someone in the kitchen. Not long after the cook who taught him to make chocolate sandwiches came with Mr. Sudiro.

“Sorry Mr Ray, what's calling me?” ask the cook.

Ray approaches. The cook was scared and looked down.

“Teach me cooking tonight,” said Ray.

The cook raised his head, still unable to believe the request from his master.

“Good Sir,” said the cook.

Ray asked to be taught to make spaghetti bolognese. The cook nodded, he began to pick up the ingredients from the storage.

Ray watched and listened intently to what the cook was saying. He also helped stir the paste, and now he is able to slice the onion. It is also deft to use piasau, spatula and other cooking utensils.

The night was late, Ilham returned to the hotel where he was staying. He felt tired for a few days he was looking for the whereabouts of Anneline. He sometimes gets upset at her why Anneline doesn't tell him about the reason why she just left.

Inspiration has sacrificed anything to find Anneline. He even dared to cut off contact with anyone including Farah his wife. He even left his shop unattended. Inspiration just wants to find Anneline. The time in Zen City is four days away.
