Not Ordinary Love

Adopting Plan

"Dear." Ethan then turns Zoya's body to face him, while Zoya's face is very moody. It was in stark contrast to Ethan's smiling expression of joy.

Ethan cupped both sides of Zoya's face.

"We can be childfree." said Ethan which actually makes Zoya frown deeply with eyes that stare at the man.

"Hmm? What if we don't have to have children?" immediately Zoya brushed off Ethan's two hands cupping the side of his face.

"So you mean, you don't want to have a child with me?" Zoya asked with a tinge of emotion.

"It's not like that, honey. We'd be better off living together." Ethan tries to understand.

"There's nothing better than that, Ethan!" Zoya will feel perfect when she has given a child to her husband.

"Aren't you in love with me?" tany Zoya then, stared at Ethan full of intimidation.

"Darling, it's not like that I'm–"

"I love you, of course."

"Yes on?"

"I'm asking you now. Why don't you want to have a child with me?" zoya's tears have fallen, free-falling and chirping on her cheeks.

"Darling, not that I don't want to. I'd love to, but it's hard, isn't it?"

"So we're patient, okay. God has not given."

"Because I failed?" Ethan knows he can't lose control of himself, so what he does next is shut up.

"Why did you say that, anyway!" Zoya grumbling.

"You should give me encouragement. Sick tau no, anyway, Than–" Zoya pointed at his chest. "Sayang–" Zoya immediately brushed aside Ethan's hand, wiping away her tears, taking a few steps away from Ethan.

Ethan massaged the base of his nose. He doesn't know how to explain it to Zoya so she understands that they won't have children.

Never to find a way, Ethan finally just hold on to the balcony divider squeezing the iron as an outlet of his regret, while Zoya continues to sob beside Ethan without Ethan knowing how to calm him down.

In the chaos, Ethan recalls what the Mother said when Zoya had just finished uterus removal surgery.

Ethan was devastated of course, his wish to be able to have a small family intact in the end he had to bury deeply because the woman he loved was unable to give him offspring.

"Mother knows this isn't easy for you as Zoya, Than. But you have to believe in God's destiny, it's not a coincidence. Someone has arranged. So you can only resign." said Freya at that time with a sad look and puddles of water in her eye pelupuk.

" Mother knows you're sad." Freya's hand landed on Ethan's shoulder who just looked down deeply listening to her mother's advice. Freya rubbed her son's shoulders gently, understandingly. If he is able, he will channel a million forces to Ethan so that his son can be strong in dealing with his own reality.

"You need to be stronger than Zoya, honey. So that later we Zoya is also sad, she has you you to lean on."

"If Zoya finds out she can't have children, then her heart and self-esteem will hurt, you'll have to keep her."

Zoya has been very patient waiting for an angel present in her marriage to Ethan, but it does not bear sweet fruit. In the end when he was already happy to take a testpeck, when the tool showed negative results he was actually sad and angry at himself.

Did God stop asking for opportunities because he couldn't be trusted? Zoya realizes her husband has never demanded that they quickly have a child. Zoya can't give anything to Ethan so she wants to get the baby to the man as a form of thanks for whatever

what Ethan gave her all this time.

In the end all Zoya could do was cry. This morning his grief doubled when we Ethan told them not to have children. Zoya is eager to bring something new to her family, she wants to be the perfect wife for Ethan who has given everything but easily the man tells her not to have children while Zoya's wish is so great they quickly had children.

Amidst his sobbing, Zoya feels Ethan's big hand grab his back, then carries Zoya in the man's arms. Ethan did not say a word, nothing came out of his lips even for quite a long time.

"All of this God has arranged. We just have to live it, we have to accept whatever God gives us."

"We're not alone, honey, many couples out there are married ten years, even fifteen years and maybe more, and they don't have children yet."

"Or someone just had a child."

"We must be patient, dear. Don't make me feel like a failure." said Ethan, rubbing Zoya's back. "Don't make me feel like I'm a failure to see your tears."

The morning drama ends with Ethan's tender kiss on Zoya's lips, as Ethan realizes that Zoya is retaliating and dominating. He chuckles softly and makes Zoya stop with a clueless look.

"Morning napsu is very." Ethan's ledge made the woman cluck with reddened cheeks. Why is Ethan so happy to ruin a romantic thing?

Zoya prefers to look back to the front, ignoring Ethan who is still laughing at him until then the man re-clutches his wife's body makes Zoya smile and rests her head on Ethan's chest.

Sensitive things are, but it feels like arguing with Ethan is fun.

"I've got Ethan's permission, but Ethan doesn't give me the movie." Zoya sighed while hugging the sofa cushion.

"Great dearest. Though I like it," he confided to Selin who came to his house that afternoon. Selin who heard that was only able to pat Zoya on the shoulder, even though he knew that Zoya was strong about it. She understood better how her husband was.

"Yes, there is nothing there are still many good films ahead there later." entertain Selin who made Zoya nod her head. But really, Zoya liked the role she would play in the film. But alas, it seems like he had to give the role to someone else because he did not get permission from the husband.

"Oh yes for filming brands from abroad it will be done in three days. Are you ready ?" selin asked as she remembered that. Zoya nodded her head.

"There is also a make up brand that asks you to make it as Brand Ambassador Mbak has signed his contract," he continued, which made Zoya again nod her head, trusting Selin who has arranged all her work.

Elsewhere, Etan is with Randy at a jewelry counter in one of the capital's largest shopping malls.

"Which do you think is good?" ethan asked, showing Randy two necklaces with constellation pendants.

"This is it, sir." said Randy easily while receiving the necklace with the constellation from Ethan's hand. While Ethan looked considerate, looking at another necklace with a crystal stone pendant in his hand

He plans to give a gift to Zoya as his apology for the incident last night and also this morning. Whatever Ethan would do to get his wife's smile back.

After doing a long enough consideration in the end Ethan took both necklaces to give to Zoya.

All the way home, Ethan was left in the back seat with his elbows resting on the windshield, rethinking his argument with Zoya this morning about the child. It looks like it's going to be very long. Because Zoya is so eager to present the figure of the child in their family

If you are asked whether you want to or not, Ethan is the same. He is desperate to have a child with Zoya, but he also knows it is not easy and he does not demand that Zoya be his perfect wife

Ethan looked at Randy who was focusing on driving. "What do you think if Zoya keeps talking about children?" ethan asked, asking the secretary for an opinion.

Randy who was driving had seen the back bench, he was silent for a moment. He knew if the accident Zoya had experienced months ago made it difficult for the woman to get a child from her own womb.

"Did Zoya really want to have children soon?" Rendy asked back. Ethan nodded, while after Randy fell silent again, considering answers and solutions for his boss.

"What if Mr. Ethan and Ms. Zoya adopt a child from an orphanage?" randy's suggestion, even though he hesitated to say it.

After a while, this time it was Ethan's turn that he considered It didn't seem like Randy's proposal was bad.

"I knew it would be different because Zoya did not conceive and give birth. But you will still be called Mother's Father, right?" keep up with Randy while Ethan is still quiet.

Ethan nodded his head, confirming this. She and Zoya can have a child without the woman getting pregnant and giving birth.

"Alright, I'll try to talk to Zoya later on about this." she said with a heart that hopes Zoya will accept the proposal for them to adopt a child.
