The Crack of a Glass

The Crack of a Glass
Chapter 54: Brightening ...



After unilaterally disconnecting the phone call and switching it to airplane mode, Azzura put the flat object back in her bag.


"Yoga ... I'm all good-bye," said Zu with a smile.


"Hmm .. let's just go to the parking lot," said Yoga and then link his fingers with Zu.


"Yogaaa .." protested.


Yoga only commented on the smile and did not respond to Azzura's protest. He continued to link his fingers until his second step stopped beside his bike.


Again after removing the finger link, Yoga grabbed the Azzura helmet and put it on the head of the hijab girl.


While staring at Yoga, I don't know why Azzura suddenly felt sad when he imagined he would leave the psychologist.


The man who helped her a lot. His hands slowly raised and then held both his hands with teary eyes.


Just contact him to make Yoga knit his eyebrows.


"What's up, Zu?" ask Yoga.


"It's okay. I just want to thank you for helping me so much. Including being willing to be my fake husband to make mom happy. Even at the last second, I still thought that you were her daughter-in-law" she said, wiping away her tears


Yoga only commented a smile while grasping both hands tightly. He didn't bother because he did it.


"I sincerely do so even very much hoping to be your true life companion" I Yoga as I stared fixedly at Azzura's face.


"Yoga," Zu shrieked and lowered his gaze.


For a moment both of them flinch with their hands clasping each other. I don't know why Azzura feels heavy if he will part with the psychologist.


"Zu, go home and be careful on the road. Do not forget tomorrow you have to consult again," Yoga commands at once disperse the daydream.


Azzura just nodded then took off his hand from Yoga. He smiled before he finally got on his bike.


As soon as the engine was on, he went back and started leaving Yoga in the parking lot. After Azzura died, Yoga leaned back for a moment at the door of his car and looked up at the sky.


"Why do I feel saying that Azzura is going to leave me," she said as she held onto her chest which suddenly felt tight.


Sad ...


Lost ...


Two words that now represent and envelop him.


"Azzura, if that happens, I'll keep looking for you until I find you and I don't let go anymore."


Without feeling her tears immediately dripped from the end of her eyes. Yoga took a deep breath to neutralize his feelings, before finally deciding to go to the hospital.

Three days later at 14:30 pm ...


After pondering and waiting for the right time to speak carefully to momy Lio and daddy Kheil, Azzura asked the parents of her husband to wait for her in the office of daddy Kheil.


After finishing work and exchanging shif, Azzura also said goodbye to go home to his coworkers.


Upon his arrival at the in-law's office, he took a deep breath to neutralize his feelings shortly after being in the elevator.


She dissolves again with her mind imagining her future fate after parting ways with her husband.


Tingg ....


The distinctive sound of the elevator door rippled his daydream. With small steps he stepped in search of daddy Kheil's office.


His steps came to a halt when someone reprimanded him for seeming confusion.


"Sorry .. Can I help you?" ask Jimmy and offer help.


"Yes, can you please show me where Mr. Kheil's workspace is?" suhut Zu with a smile.


Jimmy frowned then looked at Azzura full of probes. All this time he did not know his employer's son-in-law even though Close had asked about the girl's parents.


"What business is it to seek master? Most of his wife is with him in his room right now" Jimmy said in a hostile tone.


Azzura sighed. "I really want to meet with both of them and have made an appointment with him" explained Zu.


Jimmy shook for a moment. But hearing the words of Azzura who had made an appointment with the master, he finally drove him to the room of Mr. Kheil.


"This is your room" said Jimmy.


After that, Jimmy resumed his steps with a mind filled with many questions. While Azzura, after knocking on the door he entered the work room of the in-laws.


"Daddy, Momy," Zu greeted the two who were sitting on the couch.


"Honey, you've come" said momy Lio with a smile.


While daddy Kheil, he can already guess if Azzura to his office there must be something serious that he wants to convey to him. Moreover, he asked the wife was also in his office.


After sitting next to Momy Lio, he clasped his hand before deciding to start the conversation.


"Mom, Daddy, I'm here because there's something important that I want to tell you both" he said.


I've guessed. Mr. Kheil sat in while taking his breath.


"Before, I apologized to Momy and Daddy if what I'm going to talk about is a little sensitive" Zu continued.


Momy Lio looked at the son-in-law's words and felt a little confused.


"It's okay, son. Just say maybe momy and daddy can help you," said momy while stroking her daughter-in-law's hand.


"Momy, Daddy, I've decided to separate from Close. I also filed the divorce papers with the religious court three days ago" Zu explained guiltily.


The words spoken from the lips of the son-in-law instantly made Momy Lio quite surprised. But not for daddy Kheil, because he had predicted this would happen since he was in the hospital at the time.


"I'm sorry, Mom. I am like a son-in-law who does not know himself. After being helped now I even disappoint Momy and Daddy," said Zu while bowed down not daring to look at the in-laws.


"Dear, but why? Aren't you and Close all along okay?" ask momy.


Azzura could only bow and then shake his head. Whether you want to explain or not. But Daddy Kheil's voice made the wife immediately turn her eyes towards him.


"Mom, let me explain all the points. It's not Azzura and Close's fault it's both of us" said daddy.


"We're both wrong?" ask momy with eyebrows that are linked to each other.


Daddy just nodded and began to explain everything he knew to his wife without any of it being covered up.


After hearing all the explanations from the husband about the true state of the Azzura and Close household, Momy Lio immediately hugged Azzura while crying.


He was unable to speak but could only cry while clutching tightly to the son-in-law. He did not expect that the son could do things beyond the limits.


"I'm sorry momy, son. Mommy felt like she ruined your life. Momy did not think that Close could hurt you," said momy in a choked voice.


"Momy, everything has happened and there is no need to regret it. I've forgiven all of Close's actions to me. Just that parting is the best way for us. Allow and let us separate and live our lives. I can only pray that he will become a much better person" Zu concluded, loosening his arms from the in-laws.


Both momy Lio and daddy Kheil both seemed unmoved, but the tears of the two were enough to hint at the deep disappointment of his eldest son.


Inevitably the two can only resign and agree to Azzura's last wish, although both feel heavy-hearted.


"Honey, if you are officially separated, promise momy if you will still maintain our good relationship. You're still momy's son," said momy Lio and wiped her tears.


Azzura only nodded with a feeling of sadness as well as guilt.


"Zu, if you need help from us, don't hesitate to talk to daddy. Daddy and momy will definitely help you" said daddy Kheil and moved to sit next to him.


With a feeling of being moved, Azzura immediately embraced the two. But deep in the corner of his heart he also felt sad but this was the reality of his life and destiny. He is only able to surrender, sincere and rigid.


After about an hour in the room, he finally returned to say goodbye and left the office.


With a shaky step, the empty eyes he stepped slowly until he did not realize hit the back of someone who was walking in front of him.


His steps stopped and then lowered his head while closing his eyes did not dare to look up who he had hit.


Jimmy immediately turned around and looked at him with eyebrows clinging to astonishment.


"Are you okay?" scold Jimmy.


Azzura slowly looked up at once feeling relieved. She thought it was her husband. He was afraid that Close would force him to eat.


"Hm." Azzura answered briefly then continued his steps to the elevator and then followed Jimmy.


"I'm sorry if my words offended you" she said.


Azzura just nodded and stared at the reflection of his shadow and Jimmy in the closed elevator.


Who exactly is this girl? I just saw him come to the office for the first time. Looks like she's a good girl.


Jimmy sat in and occasionally stole a glance at Azzura while making him curious.
