Ziena woke up from smelling the scent of someone she had missed for three weeks. When she opened her eyes the first sight she saw was the burly body of her husband lying beside her. Ziena could not believe that the figure beside her was her husband.
She thought it was just her hallucination, but when she looked closely at her husband's face and heard the roar of breath coming out of her husband's nasal cavity she just believed that it was reality not her hallucination alone. "finally you come home also mas" Ziena's inner smile happily looked at her husband
"meaning last night I wasn't dreaming" she continued, recalling last night she had a dream of seeing a shadow of her husband that was so real she said
Then Ziena came down slowly from the bed so as not to wake her husband. She immediately rushed to take a bath and went downstairs to make a meal for her husband. "good morning miss" said Ms. Inah
"morning is also Mom" Ziena replied with a happy smile that Ms. Inah first saw after three weeks of living here
Ziena walked over to Bu Inah who was preparing the ingredients for cooking. "My mother wants to cook today" Ziena said
"but miss said the lady master should not do homework" Ms. Inah replied while reminding Dylan's orders to Ziena
"then I'll help Mom just cook"
Bu Inah finally nodded because after all doing something to please a husband is happiness for a wife.
Bu Inah and Ziena split the tasks but Bu Inah did not charge much for her employer because if Dylan knew for sure Bu Inah would get angry as well as Ziena, he did not help Mama Inah too much in cooking. He only helps cut and stir the vegetables the rest is done by Bu Inah. "miss everything is mature now my job to serve at the dinner table" said Bu Inah
Ziena nodded then she went to the room intending to wake Dylan up to take him to breakfast together. "mas Dylan woke up we had breakfast together yuk" said Ziena
Dylan who felt someone calling him then opened his eyes while neutralizing his gaze. "we have breakfast yuk mas"
Dylan nodded and was about to walk to the bathroom, "i'll get your clothes ready, yes" Ziena said
"no need, you just wait below" Dylan replied as he passed into the bathroom
It hurt to hear her husband say that but Ziena still nodded in understanding. He then went to wait below but when he opened the door he passed by Bu Inah who was about to knock on the door. "Mom Inah"
"sorry miss are you awake?" ask Ms. Inah
"already"
Ziena was silent for a moment before she finally invited Bu Inah to enter. "just enter Mom" Ziena said as she passed away
Then Mrs Inah came in. He immediately prepared all the needs of his master even though he honestly felt bad for Ziena as the rightful wife of his master. He knew very well that Ziena's feelings now were disappointed. Disappointed because her husband chose everything his needs were prepared by the worker rather than his own wife.
It was very desirable that Ms. Inah refused her master's orders but again she was helpless because here she was just a worker paid by Dylan. After finishing preparing clothes for his master Bu Inah immediately left.
One question that came to mind Bu Inah and still did not get the answer. He wondered why Mr Dylan treated his wife like that? all he knew was that Ziena was a good and obedient wife but why did Dylan willingly treat Ziena like everyone else.
Yang Bu Inah knew their marriage happened because of the matchmaking but Bu Inah did not know how the details explained because it was not his business. But Bu Inah has his own arguments, he has the opinion that his master's attitude is like that to his wife because it is based on an arranged marriage that Dylan might not want, so he treats Ziena so cold and rude.
When she came down, Bu Inah saw Ziena sitting waiting for her husband. Seeing Ziena's expression that did not show sadness made Bu Inah even more guilty. She knew very well that Ziena was hiding her disappointment. "forgive me my lady feels so guilty" said Ms. Inah as she walked closer to Ziena
Ziena who heard the sound of footsteps approaching turned her head. She thought it was her husband. "Boo, I thought it was Dylan"
Ms. Inah smiled. "sir may be getting ready, miss" Ms. Inah replied
A few minutes after Bu Inah replied to Ziena, Dylan appeared to descend from the stairs. He immediately sat down and Ms. Inah was ready to serve Dylan the food as instructed.
Ziena seemed to be silently indifferent to that as Dylan had already said that since three weeks ago before he secretly left for Moscow without informing Ziena.
After Ms. Inah finished helping prepare the food for Dylan, then Ms. Inah left the two of them to enjoy her breakfast. They both ate in silence and no one greeted or opened their voices until after breakfast.
Dylan, who had finished eating, left Ziena alone without saying a word. Ziena immediately followed Dylan into the room. "dylan's mom came home and didn't tell me?" ask Ziena
"what's it for to tell you?" ask Dylan back
Ziena was silent for a moment feeling the pain in her chest as Dylan said that. Ziena knew once her position here, there would be no way she would be in Dylan's heart but to tell him what was not to be. Right now what everyone knows is that she is his wife Dylan and what Ziena expects even though she cannot be loved by her husband at least treat her as well as a wife.
With a smile Ziena replied to Dylan's scathing remark gently. "not for anything, only that I'm here waiting for you too and the news from you means a lot to me" Ziena replied
Hearing Ziena's reply made Dylan feel guilty but this he did so that Ziena would not go deeper in wishing him. "sorry na but all that doesn't matter to me because in my heart there's only one woman and that's not you" she said as she passed leaving Ziena in the room alone
