Persist

Chapter 71 S 2

Sunlight came into my room. I woke up and blinked my eyes a few times. A bright morning.

"It turns out it's morning."

I got up and got a towel. Maybe I'll feel fresher after the shower. Zefan was still asleep with a blanket attached to his body.

After finishing the shower. I saw Zefan still sleeping, only his sleeping position changed. I approached Zefan slowly. Cup, a kiss made me surprised.

"You awake?" I asked, "I didn't even notice it."

"That's because you're too happy to look at me."

I was embarrassed to hear what Zefan said. This morning feels different, maybe because I have a new spirit in my life.

"Wait," Zefan held my hand as I was about to walk away from him.

"What's wrong?" my many.

"Give me a morning kiss" Zefan said in a teasing tone.

"Didn't you kiss me."

"It was me who kissed you. Not you."

I don't want to. I opted out of the room, Zefan could always make me smile and excited.

"Bi Iyah's. What's cooking today?" I asked when I entered the kitchen.

Bi Iyah turned her head and showed me a cut squid. I felt sick after seeing that.

"Non is okay?" ask Bi Iyah to me.

I nodded while closing my mouth. Maybe a baby. Just because I saw the squid I felt really bad.

After a little bit of a break. I took a glass to make milk. Bi Iyah looked disinclined by what had happened just now.

"Bi, just make me some toast and bring it to the room."

Bi Iyah put her job, "Sorry Non, I don't know if Non doesn't like squid."

I gave a smile so that Bi Iyah would not be too afraid.

"Bi, maybe this is baby-congratulations. I don't eat squid, but I've never been like this."

"Other times I won't repeat it again, Non."

I nodded, "It's okay, Bi."

I chose to go into the flower room. I have a lot of flowers to change. I picked up the trash bag and started sorting. Because of my thoughts, I forgot to clean this room.

"Darling, are you here?" Zefan tilted his head at the door.

"Yes." Yeah."

"I have an important meeting and I have to leave now."

I saw the wall clock. It was still early morning to go to a meeting. But I can only nod my head.

"Later I'll go out to see Mama Sarah. What can?"

"Of course."

"Thank you."

Zefan approached me. He gave me a kiss on my forehead. After that, I drove him to the front of the house.

"Sorry," I said as Zefan was about to get in the car.

Zefan turned his head with a questioning look, "Sorry for what?"

"Everything I've done is with you."

Zefan didn't get in the car. He turned towards me.

"What are you doing to me. Make me happy, so don't apologize."

"All right."

"Now only one is important. Take care of your health and our baby's future."

"certain."

I feel so guilty about what I did. Zefan believed in me so much, but I kept lying to him.

"I'm leaving first. You better get in" said Zefan.

"Be careful on the road."

I went inside the house. After I think back, I have to be honest with Zefan. He's my husband, whatever I do Zefan should know. If I'm not honest, maybe I'll get in trouble later.

"All right, I'll be honest." I said it out loud.

"What, Non?" ask Bi Iyah to me.

"No, Bi."

I didn't even realize I was walking to the kitchen. My mind was too messed up, I had to calm myself down for a moment.

💝💝💝

Mama Sarah still looks weak. His eyes were still closed, many tools were still attached to his body. It's not like seeing all this.

It seems it's noon. I have to go to the police station, I don't want to waste my time.

"Why so fast. I still want to talk to you" Vidi said.

I chose to sit down for a while, "What are you talking about?" my many.

Vidi, who was cleaning the plants, sat in the living room with me.

"Do you know, Mila invited me to hold an engagement."

"Good no. You can get to know each other's families."

Vidi looks agitated.

"Honest. I'm not ready for all this."

"Then just tell Mila. He'll understand."

This time Vidi clucked in annoyance, "You know Mila. He's even made an invitation without my knowledge."

"What?"

I didn't expect Mila to do this kind of thing. Mila is stubborn, but only this time Mila did it without consideration.

\=*\=

I was standing in front of the police building. Why does my heart feel afraid. I feel like I want to abandon my intentions. However, if I undo this intention. I didn't know what else Aqil would do to my life.

"Are you sure?”

It was like I knew that voice. It turns out Zefan is here. He was with a man who looked older than him.

I chose to hide behind the wall. Several times I stole Zefan's talk. But only a few words I heard.

"Then I'll go. If there's any results, let me know right away" Zefan told the man.

"Ready, sir."

Zefan got in the car and got out of there. I got out of where I was hiding. This morning, Zefan said he was going to meet and now I see him here.

"What's right with Miss Alisha?”

"true."

I shook hands with the person I had contacted earlier. The detective who helped me. This time he will investigate about Aqil.

"I've also given you the report you made" Esa said.

"thank you. I just ask that this case be finished soon. I'm tired."

"Good, Mom."

"alright. I'm gonna go straight away, don't tell anyone I'm here."

"Ready."

I came out carefully. Afraid that Zefan would suddenly come back.

"You're here?"

I was shocked to death when I heard that question.

"I'm sorry if I startle you."

"Mila, are you here? what are?"

I find it strange to see Mila here. He looks ordinary in a gray shirt.

"I just met a friend near here. What are you doing yourself?" ask Mila.

"I just want to take a walk."

"To here?" Mila pointed to the police building.

I'm just smiling. A stupid reason indeed. But that's all I think about.

"Where are you going now?" ask Mila again.

"I want to go home. Soon Zefan will be home, he'll be looking for me."

"I'm inter. Come on."

I nodded happily. At least I have a reason when Zefan asks me later. In Mila's car I feel weird. Unlike usual, there were a lot of clothes in the back.

"Why are there so many clothes in the back?"

"That's a friend's shirt to rent."

I'm nodding.

"It." Mila offered an invitation in front of me.

"What's this?" I pretended not to know.

Mila smiled, "This is my engagement invitation and Vidi. You know, Vidi loves me a lot. He wants this show."

"You must be very happy."

No one knows who is right. Clearly, Mila did all this for her own reasons. Although I've heard other things from Vidi.
