“Why is your face that red, Honey?” asked Zain ignorant then distanced their faces, a smile bursting from the cold man's face.
Zahra immediately turned her face away, her heart still not used to being close to her husband. Their marriage was over six months old.
“Barra!” call Zain.
“Ya, Young Master!” barra replied in a loud voice in surprise and managed to shock Hani who was asleep on her shoulder.
“Why are your name and face not aligned? Your name leads to an Arabic name whereas you have a face like a Korean?”
“Eh-sorry, Mister?” barra asked confusedly, instead of her young lady asking her master, why was she even being pelted with the question.
“Jawab only my question!” zain.
“Eh, sorry Sir. Actually my face is not Korean, but I have a Chinese face because one of my parents is Chinese and I inherited the gene. As for the name, my father was a Muslim, so he gave a name that reflected if I was a Muslim. Barra which means steadfast, my father wants me to be someone who has determination in running his life,” explained Barra.
“If my face looks like an Arab it will be a big problem for the harmony of my family, Sir. Because my family does not have the genes of Arab descent,” Barra said making laughter out of the mouths of the people in the car.
“What is wrong if people who have faces of Chinese descent have an Islamic name, Barra?”
“Eh, ti-no Sir. Even many Indonesians do not have faces like Arabs but they have Arabic names. And not necessarily Arabs have Arabic names, there are also among those who have westernized names, because not all Arabs are Muslims.”
“You heard it yourself, Zahra. So, if your husband has an Arab face while my parents' families have no Arab ancestry, isn't that funny?” ask Zain more precisely as a statement.
“Iya, Darling.”
“And what do you think of this talk, Mr. Ma?” zain asked the man behind the wheel.
“Sorry, Sir. There is nothing wrong with the name and face they have, in China there are also many Muslims with Chinese faces who have Muslim names. As Uthman Imam Yang Xing Ben example, he was an Imam from Taian, Shandong province, East China. Since 1993 he came to Hong Kong and dedicated his life to preaching and becoming an imam at Ammar Mosque and Osman Ramju Sadick Islamic Centre,” explained Ma Tianyu, he is fluent in Indonesian because he had lived in Indonesia for 5 years because his parents worked for Zain's father's family and participated in living in Indonesia before the bad incident happened to his employer's family.
The explanation spoken by Ma Tianyu became the cover in their conversation, the atmosphere inside the car was again filled with silence.
As the car drove over the long bridge, Zahra chose to see the view from behind the windshield. As far as the eye can see, there is a large expanse of sea water and several small ships floating on it. Far across there, stood tall buildings that could still be clearly seen by his eyes.
“Do you like the sea, Honey?” ask Zain who found his wife fascinated by the beauty of nature out there.
“Hmm,” replied Zahra briefly without taking her eyes off.
“Let me take you for a walk over the sea.”
Zahra turned her body to face her husband. “Hah! Can you walk over the sea?”
Zain who was feeling anxious saw his wife's expression couldn't help but cling his hand to his wife's forehead.
Placed.
“Akh! Pain know!” zahra exclaimed her lips and felt her forehead throbbing with pain from her husband's ignorant hands.
“We boarded the Boat, Honey. But later after we finish our quarantine period for 3 days,” explained Zain.
“Hmm, that's the procedure, Honey. I have not visited this country for almost 3 years.”
“Honey, why mommy refuses to come with us?” ask Zahra, because she does not know the story about her husband's family.
“Honey, why are you so chatty!” zain complained because his wife had not stopped asking about many things.
“Sorry, if you do not want to answer also no problem.” Zahra turned her back to her husband.
“Huft!” Zain let out a rough sigh and then pulled his wife's body back to face him.
“There are many wounds and memories of mommy with daddy here, mommy never again visit this country because it will remind mommy of the betrayal done by daddy. Even mommy doesn't want to meet daddy's family here. Mommy also does not want to visit China because the daddy family is there. Maybe if it wasn't for Dr. Agam, mommy will never want to see Barra's face, because Barra's mother is still a distant cousin with daddy,” explained Zain.
“So you guys still have a sibling bond? Not just a bond between the boss and his assistant?” zahra asked increasingly curious about the relationship between the two.
“Hmm, don't discuss this issue anymore. There will come a time when you know everything, now go to sleep! There's still 30 minutes before we get to the hotel.”
“But I'm not sleepy, dear.” Zahra refused her husband's orders because she really did not feel drowsiness.
“Whatever you are, but don't be too pussy, Honey!”
“Hmm, but I don't promise ..” shimmies Zahra then stares back at the scenery out there.
Their car drove at medium speed without any obstacles, to get into a very long tunnel but looks very beautiful.
“Why this tunnel is so long, dear.”
“Honey!” zain's Perspiration.
“Hehe.” Zahra grimaced showing her slender teeth feeling innocent.
“This tunnel divides the ocean, so it is long,” replied Zain who felt he could not bear to ignore his wife's question.
“Wow!” Not only was Zahra amazed, Hani also felt the same way as her young lady. Both of them feel the long journey by plane, even directly abroad.
30 Minutes later, Zain's entourage arrived in front of the lobby of the Four Seassons Hotel Hong Kong and was greeted by the hotel's owner Hu Yitian, who invited Zain to the country.
“Halo, welcome, Brothers!” greet the Chinese-faced man who stood firm in his luxurious suit, on his left right side lined up several men in black suits who welcomed the arrival of Zain and his entourage.
Yitian walked over to Zain and wanted to hug the cold man but was immediately pushed aside by Zain.
“Dragon your manners!” said Zain coldly.
