My House At the Edge of the Cliff

Chapter 35 The Haunting Feelings

Anisa is a big stepping stone for Ayu to get Pras' life, now after she managed to reach out to Anisa's heart one Pras family also opened the door of their hearts wide.

Even Dian and Nisa often spend time with him, despite just chatting and drinking tea. The closeness made Dian and Nisa poured various praise for Ayu to Pras, including, "She is beautiful and good, although not married but she can take care of Anisa well."

Pras who heard all the compliments just smiled, quite surprised because the way his family responded to Ayu was different from Zahira.

Sometimes Dian's mother talks bad about Zahira, whether it's her potent nature or her filler. Comparing with Ayu who is painstaking and always looks beautiful.

"Try if you meet him first with Ayu, mamah would have told you to marry him. Same with Zahira, look! now you're left to take care of your own child. Though it is the duty of the wife!," said Dian still comparing.

"Yes Zahira also went to find money," said Pras slowly.

"But now you have your own business, even you are now the boss! have a house, have a car, Zahira should go home to take care of you!," said Dian again.

"Zahira already wants to go home, next year when Anisa is five years old she just came home."

"Because! why don't you go home now?" tanya Dian with a jutek face.

"Yes can not dong mah, the employment contract is indeed five years," said Pras.

"God. alesan!" tukas Dian who then left while grumbling himself.

Pras just shook his head, not knowing what else to say to give his mother understanding that Zahira is not too bad.

He admitted Ayu is superior to Zahira, Ayu is more beautiful, more caring, more tenacious. But only Zahira makes him want to always spoil her, when Zahira is sick or whining that's when her side of the dressing room appears as a man who wants to protect. Moreover, although Zahira complained a lot about her but she never made out to others about the ugliness of her husband.

"Mas!," cried Ayu for the last time because Pras was busy daydreaming.

"Ah sorry, what did you say?" pras felt guilty.

"What do you think? ko from earlier daydreaming, look! you did not eat my cooking," said Ayu while pointing at the plate in front of Pras.

"Oh yes, sorry. I just think about my job again," Pras said.

Of course Ayu did not believe in bergitu, but he did not ask again and shifted the subject.

"Where is mas? good?," he asked enthusiastically.

"Mmm, delicious! besides being beautiful, it turns out that the boyfriend of this mas is good at cooking as well," praises Pras who makes Ayu's cheeks blush.

"Why mas? how do you laugh?" ask Ayu astonished.

"Eh, no. I just want something funny" said Pras nervously.

"Oh," Ayu replied as she nodded.

The night was getting late, Pras had left Anisa to Dian for a few days because he had to go out of town for work. But that was only an excuse so that he could vent his longing to Zahira through Ayu, all afternoon they had combed the beach to enjoy the swirling waves that brought a romantic atmosphere.

For the sake of satisfying Pras even Ayu asked permission to the hotel so that he could cook for Pras himself, at first glance people would see a young couple who were drunk in love.

At least it was true for Ayu's side, but it was not right for Pras because strangely Zahira was so hanging in front of his eyes. Not letting him have fun freely, continue to fly even when he releases his passion with Ayu.

Whatever Ayu did he saw him as Zahira, in a long time he was finally upset to leave. Ayu who was shocked because suddenly left alone can only be confused for a while.

"What's up? why are you so nervous like this?" ask Ayu confused.

"It's okay" Pras lied.

Seeing the look on Pras' face so hard Ayu knew he had to give time to Pras, so he did not ask anymore and let Pras himself calm down.

While Pras was increasingly agitated, in his mind he wondered why he was thinking so much about Zahira. After a long dark relationship with Ayu this time he felt so haunted by guilt, as if Zahira was beside him with eyes full of accusations and suffering.

Because of the increasingly disturbing feelings Pras finally decided to change plans, they should go again to one of the tourist attractions and enjoy a romantic evening together. But Pras changed it by going home early, of course Ayu was sad because of the change of plan.

He slightly expressed his frustration by sulking, even almost Ayu continued their vacation alone. But as a man Pras managed to persuade him until finally Ayu was destroyed.

"Lho Pras's? is your work done?" asked Dian when Pras came to bring Anisa home.

"It's a darn, the job's done faster than expected."

"Then you should use that free time to relax, Anisa there is a guarding mom."

"It's okay, besides Pras already miss Anisa."

"Yes already then, let mamah settle Anisa's belongings first," said Dian who immediately left.

After a few minutes Dian returned with a bag containing a favorite toy Anisa, Pras was said to go home shortly afterwards.
