The Heart that Chose
Chapter 113 Back together



Zulkarnain finally opened his voice after a long silence.


"Sorry papa Marsha, papa can't keep up with your wishes" Zulkarnain grabs his son's hand to apologize.


"Pa, please. Didn't bang Khalid agree. Can a man have two wives ? "


Zulkarnain shook his head, though,


"No, papa won't allow your son to be a second wife. Let Khalid go home with his wife"


Marsha cried sobbing sobbing hearing her papa's words. In a few minutes she will be Khalid's legal wife, but this will all fail.


"Bring your husband home, forgive me son" Zulkarnain approached Syafina he extended his hand.


Syafina seemed hesitant to accept Zulkarnain's hand, she turned to Dendi beside him. Dendi nodded too.


"I'm sorry" said Zulkarnain again, Syafina received a helping hand.


"Bring your husband home, I shouldn't have taken away your happiness"


"What about Marsha sir? "


"He'll take me far away from here"


Syafina nodded, Then she approached her husband. Syafina hugged her husband and cried tears of longing.


Khalid could not yet remember who Shafina was, but in his heart there was a strong bond between him and the woman who embraced him. Khalid returned Syafina's embrace, feeling very comfortable and warm being embraced by the crying woman.


"Not cry, I will go home with you. Do we really have children ? ".


Syafina took off her embrace, she nodded.


"Yes bang, our son is called Syakha Anugerah Putra. The brother who gave his name".


Khalid wiped the tears on Syafina's cheek with his fingers. And he cupped his hands together in Syafina's cheeks.


"I don't remember who you are, but I'm sure you're my place to go." Syafina and Khalid embraced again.


Marsha's heart was hot to see that friendly scene, she was eager to beat up Syafina.


Zulkarnain took Marsha's hand to take her away from the place, but Marsha brushed him off and ran to Syafina and Khalid. Marsha pushed Syafina strong enough to almost fall, Khalid quickly grabbed Syafina's body. Jhoni hurried to withdraw his nephew's hand so as not to attack Syafina again.


Marsha screams for release but Jhoni holds her hand.


"Lepasin, telain oom. Let me beat up that woman.. !" Marsha jerked Jhoni's hand which continued to hold her hand firmly.


"Let's get Jhoni Marsha out of here, everybody let's leave this place. Wedding canceled"


"Tidaaak, aaaa" Marsha cried loudly and cried.


Jhoni dragged Marsha out of the house. Penghulu also left that place because he had no need there anymore.


Before leaving the place Zulkarnain again apologized to Syafina and Khalid.


"I'm sorry.. Shaphina, Khalid. I am really ashamed because I almost won your happiness".


"It's okay sir, I've forgiven" Syafina replied.


"Before I leave this place I have a request to all of you. Please keep the events of today a secret. I promise Marsha won't disturb your household anymore" Zulkarnain appeared to be earnest with his promise.


All those who were there nodded, they agreed to keep the incident secret today for the good name of Zulkarnain, a mayor in town B.


"We promise we won't tell anyone else, just get here sir". Syafina spoke for everything. The others agreed.


Then Zulkarnain saluted Shafina and Khalid and experienced all that was there, and he left the house.

All breathing a sigh of relief, Lulu and Zein tell how they met Khalid, how they took Khalid from Zulkarnain's house, and how Zulkarnain easily found them.


"Thank you guys, I'm so grateful to you both. Brother Lulu and doctor Zein, thank you".


Zein and Lulu nodded. Syafina was so grateful her husband was rediscovered, she clasped her husband's hand as if afraid of him leaving. Khalid let Syafina do that.


"Something makes me wonder, why bang Khalid could be the same Marsha. Didn't Tio take care of him in the city hospital D ?"


"Somehow, it seems like Tio has betrayed Sherina" Dendi tried to guess.


"It can be" added Ridho. "Tio knew Sherina would be arrested, so he handed Khalid to Marsha"


"Oh yes, brother Lulu why are you here? "


"Ehm, I've resigned from the general hospital after you took care of Fin, trying to find a job here, you're real here"


"Oo that"


"Ehm, Khalid still needs treatment. He'd better get checked out before he goes home to B, if you're allowed to go home then you take him home." Dr. Zein explained.


"True, we take it now" said Dendi.


Khalid was rushed to the best hospital in E. Khalid underwent a series of examinations and actions, his condition weakened further due to exhaustion. The doctor makes a letter to the doctor at the city B public hospital, so that treatment is continued there, due to family requests.


Dendi and Ridho have taken care of everything for Khalid, Khalid being flown to B tonight on an ambulance jet.


"Unfortunately all of Khalid's property is given to Sherin, otherwise he could save for a private jet" Dendi fantasized.


"You think my husband is Ardie Bakrie? I don't want my husband to be that rich" Syafina pouted.


"Hehe, yes. Not as rich as Ardie Bakrie alone has been pursued by many women. If only Ardie was more sadistic than Sherina and Marsha donk..!" Dendi shuddered in horror.


At 21:00 the ambulance jet had landed, Khalid was immediately rushed to the hospital to continue treatment.


At the ER Fatimah and Reyhan were waiting, because Dendi did tell Reyhan to take Fatimah to the ER to meet Khalid. Fatimah's health condition has indeed improved from yesterday.


Fatimah hugged Khalid tightly while crying, Khalid who lay weakly let Fatimah do that even though he did not remember who Fatimah was. Her little heart said that she was an important part of her life. Moments later he closed his eyes unconscious.


"I'm sorry mommy son, it's all mom's fault. If I didn't ask you to visit mom, it wouldn't be like this". Fatimah wept tears at the frail body of her son.


Doctors and nurses deftly serving Khalid, he was taken to the intensive care room.


***


Khalid's body was fitted with several medical devices, Syafina waiting for her husband. He could read the device, he knew Khalid's vital signs were abnormal. His blood pressure was too low, but his breathing and pulse were normal. Her mouth prayed for her husband to be healthy again. The doctor said Khalid was just exhausted.


Shafina came out of the room, because she wanted Fatimah to see Khalid. Fatimah would also like to see her son.


"Mom, comein. I have to breastfeed Syakha"


"Syakha?, is that mother's grandchild's name? "


"Yes ma'am"


"Mom would love to see it, granddaughter healthy mom, wouldn't Fin? "


"Iya bu Syakha is fine, tomorrow morning you can visit Syakha. Now I'm waiting for Khalid bang. If you're tired, you just rest, the nurse here will monitor Khalid's bang"


Fatimah nodded, crying again.


"Fina I'm sorryin mom, I was so stupid to trust Sherina. It's clear he framed Khalid, but I'm still defending him."


"That's it, ma'am, it's all happened. Most importantly, if Khalid survives, he must recover. Mother don't cry anymore ma'am" Syafina hugged Fatimah, and rubbed Fatimah's back to calm her mother-in-law who kept crying regretting her attitude all this time.


I breastfeed Syakha ya ma'am" Syafina took off her embrace. Fatimah nodded.


Syakha suckled so strongly, she had just woken up from her sleep when Syafina came there. Arsya waited for him, Arsya immediately went home for a break after Syafina got there.


"Fin, Mr. Arsya is amazing. Today he rested for a little while. He looks after Syakha like he takes care of his own son" Melli said.


"I didn't think Arsya was so in love with Syakha, was it because of my son Syakha? "


"Of course it's because of your son Syakha, after all, he's very gentle with all the babies here."


Syakha took off her suction she was already full. Then Syafina invited her son to chat.


"Syakha, doain dad to get well quickly son. I'd love to see you with Syakha"


The baby let out a small groaning sound, as if answering his mother's words.


"Fin, you must be tired. Let me take care of Syakha. Syakha was full too. "


Syafina nodded, Then she rested in Arsya's room. The room that Arsya gave to where Syafina rested.
