Persist

Chapter 63 S 2

I remember if I said I'd resign from Mila's office.

"Is it too personal?"

"No, actually.."

"What actually?" looks like Mila's very curious.

"Actually I'll resign from here." I immediately closed my face.

I slowly opened my fingers and saw Mila looking down. He looks pensive. This time I actually opened the width of my hand that was covering my face.

"You... Why are you?" I asked Mila.

Mila turned her head with teary eyes, "Why do you want to stop? is the salary less? is there anything rude to you?" ask Mila.

I sat closer to Mila, "I'm sorry, I actually chose to stay home. Serving Zefan with what I can, I also plan on having children."

Mila looked in shock at me, "You really want to get pregnant?"

"Not so, I just don't want anyone to talk about us because we don't have kids yet."

Mila stood up and her eyes stared far away, "Definitely because of Yesi right?" Mila clenched her hands. He looks angry.

I held her hand and took her back to sit. Two and a half years is not short. We have done a lot of things together, but for me this is not the end.

"Are you angry with Jesse. I don't think it's Yesi." I changed my seat, "Look, aren't you getting married to Vidi? we can even get closer."

"What you say too."

I'm just smiling. Mila looked at me.

"Alright, I'll approve your resignation letter."

I immediately hugged Mila, "Thank you very much."

Finally I can be free to do anything without being attached to this job. If I'm still working, I have to take responsibility for what I do.

Mila took off my arms forcefully and said, "You look happy."

"Very. From today I can take lunch to Zefan's office." I took my bag and I'm leaving.

"Where are you going?"

"Walking to my husband."

I'm going straight away. Mila was only able to look at me without being able to prevent me from leaving.

The elevator is the thing I like the most. I didn't have to go down the stairs and was tired of keeping my legs from falling.

Ting. The elevator opened but my steps came to a halt, Aqil in front of me stared with a sharp gaze. Beside him was Yesi who was writhing spoiled on Aqil's arm.

"You look happy" Aqil told me.

I smiled, "Good morning sir, Mom. My father's guess is right, I am happy. Excuse me." After saying that I passed Aqil and Yesi just like that.

I'm going to Zefan's office straight away. Today I will accompany her day until she returns to the office. But I got a phone call from Bi Iyah.

"*Hallo Bi.”

"Non, can you go home now*?"

Not usually Bi Iyah call, is there an important guest yes.

"*Why Bi?"

"There's a woman. But he just showed me a bracelet. Do I need to get rid of it."

"Don't Bi, I'll go straight home*."

I turned off the phone and stopped a taxi. I knew Mama Sarah was going to see me, but I didn't expect it to be this fast.

💝💝💝

When I got home I saw Mama Sarah sitting in silence. I know Mama felt so awkward what else Bi Iyah was constantly staring at her.

"Bi, make me two drinks. Please take them to the flower room."

"Good, Non."

I approached and whispered, "Ma, let's go to my room. Mama will be more free there."

Mama Sarah just nodded and followed me into the flower room. Mama Sarah looks really amazed at this room.

"This is my in-laws' room. She's very nice to me."

Mama Sarah sat down though her eyes were still staring at all these flowers.

Tok to tok. I know if it's Bi Iyah. I opened the door and took over the tray.

Bi Iyah smiled, "I know, Non."

I entered with a tray in my hand. I put it on the table, Mama immediately took a glass and drank it.

"What is your husband now good?"

Mama Sarah's question made me realize. If Mama Sarah was always watching me.

"It's definitely better than my old husband."

Mama Sarah laughed.

"Ma, Mama will answer my question yesterday, won't she? about Aqil."

Mama took the biscuits that were on the plate, she looked at me sharply.

"Mama won't discuss that. Mama will only talk about you."

"I mean Mama?"

"Look," Mama confirmed her seat, "You sure don't know how big you are. You know, there are a lot of questions you will ask. Including how I adopted you.”

I'm nodding.

"You were a little girl, about five years old."

\=Sarah Berita\=

I saw a little girl who kept chasing after boys older than her. I saw the two of them were still normal, until I listened to something really terrible from your parents.

"Yes, that boy was weird since childhood" said Alisha's father.

Alisha's mother simply nodded, "She from childhood liked to kill animals, she was also rude to other children."

I was shocked to hear that, I had just been living in the Alisha family neighborhood.

"Then does the boy have parents?" tanyaku later.

Alisha's mother and father compactly shook their heads.

"He's an unwanted child. Since childhood he has only been friends with our son, Alisha." said Alisha's mother.

"Are you not afraid?"

"No" replied Alisha's father quickly, "He never hated Alisha. He hates parents who love their children."

"So, ..."

"Yes, that boy hates us so much. Because we love Alisha so much."

I sighed, however Alisha's parents were good people. They even want to accept the boy I know as Aqil.

After that day I returned the next morning. But what I saw was terrible. I saw that Alisha's parents were covered in blood with many cuts.

I saw Alisha sitting curled up between her parents. I slowly approached and hugged Alisha.

"Alisha what happened to your parents?" askaku.

With tears Alisha replied, "Say Aqil, Mama and Papa were in a car accident."

I was shocked to hear that answer. How could Aqil say if it was a car accident. Without further ado I called the police.

In the end, what I thought was true. Aqil did it. After that incident, I brought Alisha to move in with me. Aqil to the rehabilitation center.

\=Sarah finished story\=

"Al, Mama knows you're hurt. But as bitter as it is, you must accept it."

I looked at Mama Sarah's face, "Then why don't I remember everything. I don't even remember you."

Mama Sarah smiled, "That's what Mama will tell you next time. Your husband is coming home soon. You can tell your husband about me. But only your husband."

"Ma."

Mama Sarah came closer to me, she hugged me tightly.

"Whatever happens, you are still my son. This bracelet becomes our bond." Mama Sarah showed me the same bracelet.

I slowly developed my smile.

"Mama go first. Greetings to your husband."

Mama Sarah left me still riveted. It still feels like what Mama Sarah told me earlier.
