Survive Though Injured

Chapter 32 - Azzam Disappears

Two months have passed....

Tria who has no shame ends up looking for the whereabouts of her ex-husband and children.

Almost 15 minutes waiting, Azzam's car slowly came out of his residence. She followed her ex-husband's vehicle.

Tria then contacted the man she had left behind.

Repeatedly contacting Azzam but never digubris, it certainly does not make him discouraged.

Tria followed Azzam's car to the man's office.

Tria came down and set her feet wide, "Mas Azzam!"

Azzam turned his head and acted flat.

"How are you, Mas?"

"Good."

"What about the kids?"

"They're very good after getting away from you" Azzam replied smiling.

"Thank God, I'm glad to hear it."

"I want to work, excuse me!" Azzam left his ex-wife in the parking lot.

Tria wants to talk to Azzam for a long time but time does not allow it, she has to go to the office again.

The hour hand shows at 10 am, Tria exits the office to hold a meeting together with the client.

"Are you married?" ask the 37-year-old man who is Tria's business partner.

"I've separated."

"Oh, sorry."

Tria smiled briefly.

"Do you have a lover?"

Tria shook her head.

"Can I fill your heart?"

"Can you not discuss something that has nothing to do with our business?"

"Ups, sorry."

"I want to find a wife, do you...."

Tria looked at the watch in her hand, "I have to go back to the office. Thanks for the time, excuse me!" it then passed.

Tria drove her vehicle at moderate speed, because she was not focused she hit a red car in front of her. "Damn!" frangipani.

Tria got out of the car and so did the driver of the car.

"I accidentally hit your car, here's my business card. You can just come to the office," Tria took out a card from her bag.

The dashing man wearing sunglasses opened it, "Tria!"

Tria scrunched her forehead.

"How are you?" The man smiled warmly.

"You who?"

"You don't know me?"

"No."

"I'm Arsen, Mr. Ivan's assistant."

Tria started to think, "Geez, I just remembered!" patting jidatnya.

"How are you?"

"I'm good, how are you?"

"I'm good."

"What about the car?"

"No need to replace, just a slight scratch."

"Is this really okay?"

"Yes," Arsen smiled.

"Then thank you so much, I hurriedly have to go back to the office. Next time we talk again. Bye bye!" Tria got into the car and drove to her office.

Arsen looked at the business card he was holding and then chuckled, "Finally we meet again. I really miss you."

This week Tria was so busy that she had not seen her ex-husband and children or just called her.

And this morning he intends to go to the house of his former in-laws.

Arriving there the house looks lonely, no occupants at all. Tria pressed the bell repeatedly, a woman who might be her own age came to her, "Who's looking, Mom?"

"His father Azzam is there?"

"Sir Azzam doesn't live here, he's moved."

"Moved?"

"Where?"

"I don't know, Mom."

"You're the new ART?"

"Then, thank you."

Tria is gone.

On the way to the office, Tria kept asking in her mind. "Why did Mas Azzam move? Is he married again?"

Entering Azzam's office yard, Tria circulated her gaze looking for her husband's car but she did not see it, the more curious she finally asked her secretary.

"Sir Azzam these few days didn't get into the office."

"Are you not sure where he's going?"

"Because it's not our right to know where Mr. Azzam is."

"What kind of employees are you? Boss himself doesn't know where?" his jolt.

"Bu Tria is not his wife anymore, is she? So why ask where he is?" Secretary Azzam replied to his boss's ex-wife.

"I want to meet the kids, he's blocking me!"

"Mom can just ask his parents Mr. Azzam."

"If I could ask her parents, I wouldn't be here!" tria said annoyed, she then passed.

After Tria leaves the office, Azzam's secretary Amar calls his boss. "Assalamualaikum, my dear."

"Waalaikumussalam, Mar."

"Mas Azzam's ex-wife just got here."

"Would he come?"

"He wanted to meet Mas Azzam and of course the reason was the children."

"Don't tell him my new home address if he comes again."

"Ready, Mas."

"Thank you, Mar."

"Assalamualaik."

"Waalaikumussalam," Amar hung up.

Tria was not discouraged, he returned to the home of his parents Azzam in the evening.

A man came up to her who was standing in front of the fence. "What's Miss Tria doing here at night?"

"I want to meet Zania and Zadya."

"They don't live here anymore, ma'am."

"Where are they then?"

"I can't tell him" replied the man who worked as a driver for Harja, Azzam's father.

"You don't want to help me?" persuade Tria.

"Mom can ask directly to Mr. Harja or Bu Lita." The man opened the gate and let him in.

Tria walked into her former in-laws residence.

"What else do you want here?" sergeant Lita.

Tria turned her head and replied, "I want to meet my children. Where are you hiding it?"

"You didn't say wrong about hiding it? Who's driving him away and refusing to take care of him?" lita tangent.

"I was wrong and I want to fix everything."

"Slow!" lita Sentak. "My son his heart has been too sick for your attitude all along!" said firmly.

Tria knelt at Lita's feet, "Ma, please forgive me!"

"Go away, don't disturb and disrupt the lives of my sons and grandchildren!"

"Ma, I'm sorry!" Tria looked sad.

"Do, get him out of this house!" Lita called her driver.

Tria stood up, "Ma, I miss them so much!"

Lita ignored her ex-daughter-in-law and chose to pass.

"Please come out, Mom."

Without rebutting, Tria left the former-in-law's residence.

2 Days later, Tria returned to her ex-husband's office. The struggle succeeded, Azzam wanted to be invited to meet and chat.

At the cafe Azzam said firmly, that he was not interested in referring to Tria.

"I'm so sorry, Mom!"

Azzam reminded his wife of the treatment all along.

Tria showed a face of regret and sadness but did not make Azzam waver and pity.

Azzam chose to leave and left Tria at the cafe.

Tria, who was not out of her mind, told someone to watch and follow Azzam. She wondered where her ex-husband lived.

By nightfall, he got the address of Azzam's new residence. Tria smiles happily because soon she will meet her children of course through her two children she can reclaim the love of her ex-husband.

"I will try to seize and soften your heart, Mas. I want us to go back to how we used to be!" muttered.
