The Crack of a Glass

Chapter 61: Frustration ...?

Two weeks later ...

After getting a suitable rented house for him, Azzura then checked out of the hotel and started occupying the house he had contracted for the next year.

He also included his job application letter in several hotels and cafes in accordance with his college majors.

After being in the city for two weeks, Azzura felt a little calm. But still the trauma that still imprints in his memory due to physical violence that is often done by Close to him, still haunts him when night falls.

Not infrequently he often squatted while crying in the corner of his room while hugging his legs and then buried his face on his knees with a body trembling in fear.

But when remembering the figure of Yoga and mother Fahira, slowly the fear gradually disappeared.

**********

Coinciding with this day precisely on Sunday, the afternoon Azzura seemed to be in one of the cafes enjoying his own lunch.

Sometimes he looks like he's tugging at his laptop. A faint smile seemed to grace the corners of her lips after daddy Kheil sent her an email.

Without feeling her tears back down after seeing the official letter of her divorce on her laptop screen.

"Thank you, daddy," said Zu and wiped his tears. He replied to Dad Kheil to thank him.

Now she has truly held the status of a widow without ever being touched by her husband. After replying to an email from dady Kheil, he went back to check the other email.

Shortly afterwards his fingers suddenly touched someone. Just surprised him and then looked.

When he found out who did it, he turned to the left and to the right and even to the back and looked back at the boy who made his heart slightly entertained.

"Darling, who are you here with?" ask Zu. "You're just like a aunt here until your nanny comes," Zu said again with anxiety and then closed his laptop.

Ayya just smiled while shaking her legs and did not take off her hand from Azzura.

Seeing the attitude of the beautiful boy, he felt anxious then again invited him to chat and joke.

Soon someone rebuked the two and joined in.

"It looks really good," the middle-aged woman scolded and sat down on the empty chair.

"Omaaa," said Ayya.

While Azzura reviewed the smile of looking at the woman kindly.

"I'm sorry, if my granddaughter interrupted your lunch" the middle-aged woman said.

"No, Mom. I am even entertained," said Zu as he stroked Ayya's head.

"I'm Nadirah, I'm Nadirah" said Nadirah.

"I'm Azzura, Mom. Just call Zu or Zura," Zu replied with a smile.

"Are you a student?" ask Nadirah.

Azzura reviewed the smile while shaking his head.

"No, Ma. I went to this city to find a job. I've been living in this city for a week and have submitted application letters to several hotels and cafes. Just waiting for the call" explained Zu.

Madam Nadirah nodded her head and looked at her.

"In Kindergarten where my grandchildren go to school, again need teaching staff. If you want, you can go to school tomorrow. I'll give you the address" Nadirah said.

"May, Mum. It's just that my diploma is far from that major," I'm Zu. "But there's no harm in trying, anyways I really like kids."

"It's okay," said Nadirah's mother then gave the address of Ayya's school. "Tomorrow I all wait at Ayya school, yes" continued Miss Nadirah with a smile.

"Yes, Mom," said Zu then looked at Ayya who had been staring at him. "Darling what's wrong? Why look at auntie like that?" asked Zu while stroking the little boy's hair affectionately.

"Ayya is happy if Aunty teaches at Ayya's school later," he replied.

Azzura just nodded then reviewed the smile, while Nadirah only noticed the two.

Deep in the corner of his heart was amazed by the figure of Azzura who looked so compassionate even impressed polite when speaking.

Kheil Family Mansion ...

After Azzura's departure, Close continued to confine himself in the room. It even looks frustrated.

He still can not accept the fact that he and Azzura are now officially divorced. As a result of his own actions and actions, finally his desire paid off with divorce.

There was no day without tears of regret lamenting Azzura's departure. Even the girl's number has not been active since the last time she contacted him.

She grew increasingly frustrated when daddy Kheil showed her the official divorce papers from a religious court three days ago.

Seeing Close constantly locked away and reluctant to meet anyone, made Momy Lio feel very worried about her situation.

Tok ... tok ...

"Close, open the door," she asked, knocking on her door.

Tok ... tok ...

Momy Lio again knocked on the door while twirling the door handle. Calling him out of worry.

But the door was not opened. While the one called just sat pensively while continuing to stare at the photo of his bride with Azzura.

Seemed to be so careless unkempt. The shadow of the physical violence and swear words that he often uttered and he did to Azzura continued to fill his mind.

The feeling of guilt now continues to shadow and haunt him to make him feel nervous extraordinary even can not sleep calm.

Momy Lio's voice that had been calling out to her since seemed as if she had not listened.

"Mom" said Gisel. "It's a spare key." Gisel put the key in and turned it around until the door opened.

"Close!!" cry momy while approaching her.

But Close remained unmoved while staring at the photo.

"Sister?!" reprimanding Gisel but remaining the same, Close remained unmoved and still stared at the photo of his bride with Azzura.

Unbearable, momy Lio hugged him while crying. I don't know what to do now.

"Close .. listen to momy. Forget everything that happened, let Azzura live his life now. She deserves to be happy" said Momy.

Close remained unmoved with blank eyes. Gisel who had been watching the older brother seemed to frown.

"Mom .. It looks like we should take Brother to a psychologist. If this brother continues he can be depressed because he is haunted by feelings of guilt," explained Gisel as well as staring pity at the brother.

"If left like this continues, you may have to be admitted to a mental hospital" said Gisel.

"What?!" Momy Lio was surprised to hear Gisel's explanation.

A second later the sound of Close's cry was heard again while continuing to mention the name Azzura asked for it back.

"Momy, please bring Azzura back. I beg Mom. I promise to change and I will correct all my mistakes with him. I beg you to return Azzura to me" she asked, crying hysterically.

Frustrating ....

Maybe that's the word that now describes the situation Close. It does not rule out the possibility if he will be treated temporarily in a mental hospital.
