Sharing Love: Forced to Marry a Husband's Grandchild

#MENTARI, FATIH, AND ZAHRA (12)

      The sun runs quickly as it descends the stairs. He woke up late, because after the morning prayer he went back to sleep. After a night she was exhausted in serving her husband, and slept less than two hours.

     When he reached the kitchen, Zahra and Fatih were cooking together. They look very harmonious in the eyes of Mentari. Especially when Fatih feeds Zahra to taste the cuisine. It looked very sweet in Mentari's eyes, and he liked to see the sight.

"Sorry, I woke up bad luck." The voice of Mentari made the two of them shocked.

     The mentari approached them both. Seen there is oseng capcay and fried fish that have been cooked on the dining table. So Mentari also prepared plates and glasses for them.

"It's okay" Zahra said with a big smile, clearly seeing that she was happy.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" tanya Mentari while approaching Zahra and Fatih.

"No, it's all done. Because Mas Fatih had also helped me cook," Zahra replied as she glanced at her husband.

"I didn't wake you up on purpose. It seems like you are still sleepy and exhausted," Fatih said with a smile towards Mentari.

"It looks like guava juice hasn't been made? Let me just yeah, who made it!" said Mentari while removing some guava in the refrigerator.

"Thank you," Fatih replied as she looked towards Mentari, and smiled seductively.

      Then Fatih continued to help Zahra, but Zahra teased him instead. As a result, they even tease each other.

    Seeing the familiarity of Zahra and Fatih, Mentari felt very happy. Zahra was no longer sad to think about the disease she was suffering from.

"So, what's up? Is anyone sick?" ask Fatih when the Mentari is silent even though the guava juice is ready, but the blender is still left on.

Mentari quickly turned off the blender, then poured it into a glass lined with three glasses, "So that's okay Mas."

      While they were having breakfast, Zahra's cell phone rang. See the name that made the call listed on the screen. Zahra quickly swallowed her food, then she received a call from her Ummi.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Mother."

"Va'alaikumsalam, Zahra. Sorry to bother you so early in the morning" said Mirna, Zahra's mother.

"What's up, Mom?" zahra asked in an anxious tone, as it was not usual for Mirna to call in the morning.

"Your aunt, her house was a fire last night. So now there's no place to live. For a while can Aunt Widuri and Jihan stay at your house?" Mirna tells Zahra about her uncle's family situation who is traveling to the land of the people.

"Wait for Zahra to talk about this first with Mas Fatih," Zahra replied while looking at Fatih.

"Oh yes, then talk to your husband. Because your aunt doesn't want to live in a boarding house. Though Abah was willing to accommodate both of them," explained Mirna.

"Yes, Mom."  

"Yes, I hung up the phone. Assalamu'alaikum" said Mirna.

"Wa'alaikumsalam." Zahra returned her mother's greeting.

     Zahra sighed violently, as if describing her current mood.

"What's wrong?" mentari asked when he saw Zahra as if he was in trouble.

"Aunti Widuri's house is on fire, and they want to hitch a ride for a while here. What can I do, Mas?" zahra asked while looking at her husband.

"You know, if Mas doesn't like a lot of strangers in the house" Fatih replied, looking back at his first wife with apologetic eyes.

     Fatih actually does not like the nature and behavior of Widuri. He also does not want to have the presence of others in his house will get into trouble.

"Just have them contract the house!" mentari said he gave me an idea.

"If that's what we're gonna rent them a house, as long as it's not here. Let Mas spend the cost of renting his house," said Fatih.

"Alright then, Zahra will say," Zahra said with a smile.

     Fatih and Mentari went to their respective company offices. Fatih asked Mentari if he would pick her up if she went to work. Zahra has stopped being a doctor since she contracted leukemia. Only stay alone, at most there will be a married couple who work to clean the house at eight in the morning, and go home around four in the afternoon.

"Assalamu'alaikum," said Mentari as he opened the door. But Fatih held the door handle. His hand held the hand of Mentari

    Mentari turned his face to Fatih. The distance that was only a short distance between their faces. Makes Mentari shake, because now Fatih's face is getting closer. He felt Fatih's soft lips. "Why things like this still have to be reminded," said Fatih.

"Sorry, Mas. Not used to it yet" Mentari replied as she lowered her face.

"Or you don't like it in ci—" Fatih's words were cut off by Mentari's kiss. Not wasting the opportunity, Fatih returned even more heat.

"Here you go, I want to go to work first. Assalammu'alaikum," said Mentari while bowing his head in embarrassment.

"Wa'alaikumsalam," Fatih replied with a happy smile.

     Fatih did not realize that some of the red lipstick from Mentari's lips had moved to hers. Such is the activity of Fatih and Mentari in the morning. They also always eat lunch together. Sometimes in the Fatih office or in the Mentari office.

     When you get home from work faster than usual, Fatih likes to take Mentari for a walk first. He wanted to be alone, spent with happy memories between them. Fatih wants to have a good memory with Mentari, like she has a good memory with Zahra. When there is only Mentari by his side, Fatih's mind will try to focus on Mentari. So that she also feels like a wife to be cared for by her husband.

      When he came home from work, Fatih saw his car in-laws on the front page of the house.

"Is there a guest?" mentari asked when he saw a white car.

"It looks like it's Zahra's parents' car," Fatih replied as he unfastened his seatbelt.

      Fatih and Mentari went into the house, there were already Widuri, Jihan, and Mirna, and a private driver who always drove the family of Ustadz Ahmad.

"Assalammu'alaikum" greetings Fatih and Mentari together.

"Wa'alaikumsalam" replied everyone there.

"It's been a long time, Mom?" fatih asked while kissing her mother-in-law's hand in a reverent manner. And so did Mentari, kissing Mirna's hand.

"just now. Zahra also made water for us" replied Mirna.

"Mas, Mentari will help Zahra first prepare her drinking water and treats" whispered Mentari, and Fatih nodded her head.

"We came here, to ask Nak Fatih, to give Widuri and Jihan permission to stay here for a while," Mirna said directly at the heart of her arrival.

"Has Zahra not spoken to Mom yet, the decision Fatih made, this morning?" ask Fatih to Mirna.

Everyone there was silent.
