Selfish Husband

The Parade Play 2

"What's the matter this time?" ask Yudha again.

"He found a photo of Divya."

"So she's angry?"

"Hmm .. she wasn't angry .. but I was rude to her. "

Kevin laughed cunningly at Zeyn's confession which he thought was a loser. "Stupid why are you in the temple anyway?" asked Kevin Still grinning. "Why keep a picture of your ex when you're married? didn't Divya leave you? That means Divya has released you and your job is to find a replacement. So, Divya is no longer a barrier for you to open a new life with Vania."

"Look on the bright side, Vania is a good woman, beautiful and obeys all your words. She was even willing to stay home alone and lonely whereas her husband only knew to have fun. Do not let the word regret stab you later," said Aryan patted Zeyn softly on the shoulder next to him.

"You have to learn to throw away the bad things that can make you emotional, especially your marriage. Maybe he also does not want this marriage to happen" Yudha concluded.

"I can't help it! just seeing it makes me mad."

"Do you want me to protect her?" asked Dery who made Zeyn back to glancing at him.

"You better throw your intentions away Ry, maybe I don't have feelings for her but still she's my wife, she's mine and I won't let Vania turn away!" peeked Zeyn for being so angry.

"Zeck, I know your wife Vania. Have you ever treated her like a wife? Vania is also human and you shouldn't be selfish and think of her as your own" Aryan still had time to say casually.

"You cheat, because you only care about your circumstances," again Dery gave a striking assumption.

"because I know you so well, Dery."

"Delay him and I will be good friends to him" continued Dery ignoring Zeyn's remarks.

"Then make her smile, Vania is very beautiful when she smiles. It was clearly printed on her face if Vania was missing something. Something I believe you can't give her and maybe I can. He will be happy with me, I promise to always make him happy" Dery concluded at the end of his speech.

"Once again I emphasize, do not dare to approach him," threatened Zeyn and responded to laughter by Dery.

"It's been months but you still don't know much about it, do you?" Zeyn nodded, saying Yudha might have a point. "try to get to know her, she may not be as bad as you think." continued Yudha.

"Or maybe you can do what Dery says. Try your best if it doesn't work, there's no choice but to get divorced" Kevin said.

Nine o'clock in the morning and Vania just woke up, the first thing she did was to go to the bathroom, check out Zeyn's room, have breakfast in front of the TV, he said, going to the market and sitting in the park watching a happy couple became his routine these days before returning home, getting better and preparing dinner.

Spending most of her time with simple activities already makes Vania happy. Vania glanced at the wall clock which still showed at two in the afternoon. Vania sighed,

"Some snacks may be able to accompany this solitude while watching a movie."

Vania decided to shop for some snacks, soft drinks, chocolate and two cups of mint chocolate flavored ice cream. Vania stepped out of the store with a smile, just watching a romantic comedy film is her choice at this time, because her life is already miserable enough to watch a sad genre movie aka melow.

In the middle of the road, Vania was a bit irritated to find her shopping items scattered on the street. One of the bags he was carrying must have been torn, maybe because the bag was thin or the shopping was too heavy.

"It." Vania heard a man's voice.

Vania looked up and glared at the sunlight. Vania looked for hints to sharpen her sense of sight because she could not see her face clearly.

His eyes sparkled as he saw the man's face smiling, slightly rivaling the sunlight, his aura looking like an angel. Vania turns to look at her hand and receives the falling chocolate.

"Thank you" said Vania stammered in embarrassment, then stood up and smiled awkwardly.

The man was still standing at his place taking things out of his shopping bag. "Here, take my thief" he said and gave Vania her bag.

But Vania's words were useless as the man took over the pouch that Vania was holding and put it in the bag. When he finished he thrust it into Vania.

Her smile shattered Vania's heart and mind. Vania still has not regained her consciousness she is still faithful looking at the adorable handsome face in front of her now.

"May I help you take him?" tanyakanya.

"N-not necessary. You have helped me a lot. Thank you." Thank you."

"How can I see you in distress? you don't remember me?"

As he said that and Vania looked at him once more, her face really did look familiar in Vania's eyes.

"I came to your wedding. I'm Yudha, Zeck's friend." Vania's forehead wrinkled.

"Ahh, I mean Zeyn," he continued with a smile.

***

Vania is happy to know that Zeyn has a kind hearted friend.

'But why are they friends? I mean, they're very different. Yudha seems like a nice guy while Zeyn is a jerk, grumpy, jutek has no heart.' Vania lamented inwardly.

Vania arrives home and doesn't have much time to prepare dinner, but her attention is distracted by the house phone ringing. At first Vania was not sure to accept it because during her stay with Zeyn, she had never heard the phone ring. 'Should I lift it?' ask in the heart.

"Hello?"

"We're going to visit my parents." Vania heard Zeyn's voice. "So get ready because we'll leave as soon as I get back home" he said, hanging up.

***

Zeyn returned on time as promised and now they are on their way to Zeyn's parents' house. Vania felt strange because this was the first time she had visited her in-laws' house.

They stood in the doorway after Zeyn knocked on the whitewashed door, Vania felt something touch the surface of her skin. Vania gasped, her eyes widened and looked down. Their hands are really tied to each other. Vania's heart was pounding.

'Has he thought about his actions and made our relationship better?' he said in his heart.

The two Zeyn parents welcomed their arrival with smiles and invited Zeyn and Vania to sit on the sofa.

Which makes Vania surprised when Zeyn sits right next to Vania and a very close distance because the surface of her skin is in direct contact with Vania's skin. Vania blushed, her blood rustling.

"Is your relationship okay?" ask Zeyn's dad

"As you can see," Zeyn tried to convince her father. Zeyn pulls and grabs Vania's hand. Looking at Vania while smiling. Vania poked her lips helplessly holding the strange sensation in her stomach. "Dad don't have to worry" Zeyn continued.

Both of Zeyn's parents smiled, This is the first time Vania has seen a smile imprinted on that handsome face and there is no evil sneer. Vania is sure of that. Even the big smile that Yudha gave was unable to warm Vania's heart. Different from Zeyn's smile.

The most beautiful smile that made Zeyn even more handsome and charismatic. Zeyn's grasp tightened, sending a warm sensation throughout Vania's body. Vania is still not used to the warm touch of Zeyn's skin.

Vania is stunned to find Zeyn's parents looking at her, possibly expecting Vania to come along to say something. He nodded his head. "We're fine Dad," replied Vania as if.

"You sure? Zeyn treated you well?"

Vania swallowed the clump around her neck, thinking about how Zeyn had behaved towards her all this time.What should I say? should I be honest how her son looked down on me to the point of crying to sleep? call me ******? Zeyn doesn't care about me? even he hit me?' his eyes were unfocused because his heart was turbulent to tell all the truth.
