Rafa and Ara

Episodes. 224

...Happy Reading's....

This morning with Ines, Ara punched the slum location near the railroad tracks in the city of X. The area is one of hundreds of slums in the city.

Ara reviewed the surgical workings of several houses that were already uninhabitable. The work has been going on for two weeks.

This village holds Ara's heart. Because there are many small children and the elderly whose homes are only based on the ground and roofed the sky. Ara had already traced the area first before performing the surgery. It has been repeatedly the slum community sent proposals for decent home assistance. But a few years running and until this moment there has been no response from the government.

As usual, every time he came to check the location, Ara came not empty-handed. He brought hundreds of food boxes and groceries to be distributed to the local poor.

Without disgust Ara mingled with the community and also with the very dirty environment full of garbage and flies that fly carrying diseases. Together with the Azahra team, as well as professional workers and some heavy equipment from her husband's company. The work of surgery began to look 60 %, of the 100 houses that had surgery.

Not from plywood or gypsum. The surgery uses material so that it is not easily damaged and long to live.

Of course this cannot be separated from the intervention and support of her husband, Rafa.

They also do the work together with the community to clean the area from garbage scattered, hoarding and burning it in one separate place.

A very exhausting day. But Ara was very happy to be able to share her happiness with the underprivileged community. Until finally he fell asleep in his lap and the love of the husband who came to pick up in the area by late afternoon.

Cindy walks the street in a shopping mall. Her steps stopped right in front of the baby supply store. He stared at the pair of beautiful little golden-white baby shoes. Cindy raised her left hand slowly touching the pair of baby shoes from the outside glass. He smiled haru. Slowly he touched his stomach. Imagine the baby will wear a pair of beautiful things.

"Can I help you?" the sound of the shopkeeper greeting him.

Cindy's shocked."I just look at it. Sorryexcuse me!" he said immediately while breaking down a smile.

Cindy continued on her way. But just a few steps walk, his legs came back to a halt. In front of her are Dinda, Sophia and her mother Sophia.

"Hay Cind, are you here?" sophia's reprimand as soon as she saw it.

Cindy smiled.

"Who is the same?" ask Sophia.

"I walk alone sophia."

Cindy looked at Dinda. His uncle's wife, Raymond Alkas.

"Tante." call him politely. She also reprimanded her mother Sophia through a smile even though she did not know who the woman was.

"What are you doing here? Shopping?" ask Dinda.

"I'm just walking aunty."

"Who's Jeng?" ask Shopiah's mother.

"He's Cindy, husband's niece, Dion's cousin!" answer Dinda.

"Oh yes Cindy, this is Sophia's mother!" dinda said she reintroduced Sophia's mother.

Cindy immediately greeted Sophia's mother.

Dinda looked at him unmoved.

"Cindy, are you sick?" look at Cindy's changed body. Skinny and pale.

Cindy was shocked and overwhelmed.

"Ah no aunt! I'm fine!"

"But you look like an unhealthy person, you look skinny." Dinda looked at him unblinking. She knows Cindy always takes care of her appearance as well as her body.

"That's because I'm on a aunt's diet. I've been on a diet for two months." Cindy gave me an excuse.

"Why do you diet, your body was ideal and good before. Don't go down anymore. It's not good to see that it's too skinny" Dinda said.

"Yes aunty" Cindy said.

"What do you do in front of a baby shop? We noticed you saw something in there while smiling at your own smile." - Sophia.

Cindy was surprised."So they noticed what I was doing? god, let's hope they don't get suspicious." Her mind was anxious.

"Do you want to buy baby gear?" Sophia suspected.

"Ah no Sophia, I just saw a pair of cute little baby shoes. I'm so upset because it looks funny."

"Oh, I think someone else is pregnant and you want to buy baby supplies." Sophia smiled slanted.

Cindy quickly shook her head.

"No!"

"Cindy, you probably already know Sophia is Dion's fiance!" Dinda interrupted their conversation.

"Yes aunty, Sophia told me!"

"They're getting married next week.

Auntie, I hope you can help Sophia and your sister if they need help. Especially to your sister, because she's close and open to you" Dinda said.

Dinda stepped closer to him, brought her mouth closer to Cindy's ear, then whispered something.

"Cindy, we have to make sure that Dion's marriage to Sophia goes well and is done as soon as possible. That way your brother will soon forget about Ara. You understand what aunt means?"

"I_iya aunty!"

"Sophia is your uncle's girl of choice for your sister. She's the only one who deserves to be your sister's wife! For that you have to help your uncle, convince Dion to marry sophia as soon as possible." looked into Cindy's eyes fixed.Cindy again nodded quickly, even though her heart was currently in pain.

"This marriage is not just a union of two hearts and families. But also mergers and acquisitions of two companies." continued dinda Back.

Cindy gulped her saliva, she nodded quickly. Pain in his heart.

"I understand aunt. I will try my best to convince Brother Dion!" he said sad, hoarse voice.

"Good!" said Dinda smiling as she touched her shoulder.

Then she looked at Sophia's mother.

"Let's let's go!" then step immediately.

Sophia's mother followed him immediately.

Sophia stepped closer to him, continuing to bring her face closer to Cindy's face.

"You must want to spend the contents of Dion's credit card, right?" his whispers stared cynically.

"It should be my thin object Cindy because I'm his future wife." he returned with a sharp look. Then immediately followed Dinda and her mother.

Cindy nodded at his words.

He was silent in his place. Sophia stepped up furiously. He did not expect Dion to love his cousin so much that he gave a credit card that was only used by the upper class. Dion should have given him the credit card, because he was Dion's fiance. He sees Dion giving Cindy the credit card and eavesdropping on their conversation while in the kitchen. Seeing them embrace, Dion calms Cindy down in tears.

Dion's treatment, their care and closeness made him unhappy and hurt. He hates Cindy and doesn't like her. And he wants to separate the two. She did not want any other woman close to her fiance, even if it was just Dion's cousin.

Cindy is sad. Keep staring at Sophia's departure until the girl's body disappears from her sight.

His phone suddenly rang.

Cind immediately picked up from his bag and saw who was calling.

"Sir Dion?" he said after seeing who called. He just stared at the call not lifting.

Cindy recalled the words Dinda just now.

Dion and Sophia got married.

And she must help convince her brother to accept Sophia and get married as soon as possible.

Sadness returned to his heart. His chest tight rumbles strongly resisting the crying. Pain felt. A tear fell on the corner of his eye.

Cindy stroked her stomach gently.

"Please don't call me again brother!" his murmur was softly staring at the screen of the phone that was still on.nBecause being close to Dion would only further add to his pain and heartache. Although admitted he really wants to be close to the father of his son. Being near Dion will make his heart and soul calm and excited. Probably because of her pregnancy.

He should have left this city and stayed away from his cousin's brother, before his belly grew and was known by many, especially his parents and extended family..He will also not be strong to face the scorn of people, even anger from parents and family if he knows he is pregnant. Because she knew that an extramarital pregnancy without a husband would be embarrassing, gossipy and disgraceful for her and her entire extended family.

He also did not want his son to be born considered an illegitimate child, and not accepted in a social environment. He wanted to move to a new place where no one knew him.

But he was worried that Dion would look for him in his apartment that he had rented to someone else. Dion will be angry and look for him.

The phone stopped by itself.

A minute later, a message was sent.

"Cind, buy some groceries.

I'll have dinner at the apartment. Please cook something like the few days you made it. I really want to eat your cooking!" the message Dion wrote.

Cindy breathed heavily after reading it. He didn't reply.

At a time when he hated food,

Dion is growing his appetite. The portion of food is increasing. Dion felt the pregnancy.

Cindy stepped back while daydreaming.

While agitatedly fighting with his heart and mind about Dion, a pat on the shoulder shook him.

Cindy turned around.

"Huh? You guys?" he was very surprised but also happy to see two smiling faces staring at him.

"Ara__Ine?!!!

Seriate.
