The Heart that Chose

Khalid was about to get out of his seat when he was arrested by someone.
"Hey, why hunt". Someone held his arm.
"Silvana?, I'm done"
"I happened to come here, come on, accompany me for a second.I'm alone". Then Silvana turned to Dendi.
"Mas Dendi, is this really Dendi Kurnia?"
"Yes, Silvana, right? " Dendi pointed towards Silvana.
Silvana nodded with a big smile.
"I didn't expect to meet here" said Silvana, then reached out with his hand to greet Dendi.
"Please sit down silvana" said Dendi.
"You have known me for a long time ? "ask Khalid.
"Hmm, yes since SMU" replied Silvana
"When we graduate SMU we never met, you have a family Sil ? "
"Yet, still looking.What are you? "
"Here, just married two months"
"Oo that, when two months ago I was in this city, but we've never met"
"Where do you work now?"
"The doctor at Fatimah clinik belongs to bang Khalid"
"Oo, really Khal, you never told me"
"Yes, I never told you about the same clinic, because I knew you were busy Den. The clinic is Sherin's business.
Dendi nodded her head in a nod, "this world is narrow, yes, we meet again here"
"Mas Dendi cooperates bang Khalid huh?"
"Yes, I'm Khalid's assistant"
"Oo that,"
A waiter delivered Silvana's order, because before he sat down he had already ordered food first.
"Mas Dendi, bang Khalid let's eat" Silvana bargained. Silvana ordered Seafood fried rice and carrot juice.
"We have eaten Sil" replied Dendi.
"Oo, you're done. Sorry I interrupted your time. Maybe I'll hunt you home".
"No matter what, you finish the meal we wait" said Dendi.
Silvana ate the fried rice voraciously, because she was already very hungry.
Khalid saw the incoming message on his phone.
"Bang, buyin martabak egypt yes in place big brother wholesale food first. Remember right? "
"Loh, he said he didn't like it"
"But now I want a bang"
"Okay, brother buy it. Wait, baby"
"Awaited 😘😘".
Khalid smiled with a smile at the emoji Syafina had sent.
"Daddy Khal smiles, your wife must have told you to go home quickly ".
"Hmm, this is Syafina asked in buyin martabak egypt. yesterday he said he did not like. now even ask for buyin". Khalid smiled slightly thinking about his wife's behavior.
"His name is also pregnant mother Khal, Cintya now even more nausea vomiting. Kasian he wants to eat if I'm the masakin."
"Rasain you know Den, so cook"
"Oh your wives are pregnant, are they telling you to go home? duh sorry yes. I'm really interrupting your time if you want to go home is okay"
"No, please continue eating Silvana" replied Khalid.
"Yes Sil, our wife has a friend at home".
Silvana hurriedly finished her meal, she felt uneasy already bothering these two men.
"I'm done, if you want to go home please. I'm going home too".
Eventually the three of them went home together, while Khalid stopped at the Egyptian martabak seller.
"Mbak, the Egyptian martabak one. In packs"
"This is the father who bought our food the other day, right? ". ask the Egyptian martabak seller.
"Hmm, yes" Khalid nodded and smiled."
"Eh mas's. This is the father I told my mother's merchandise" the man told a man.
The man looked at Khalid, and,
"It's the same"
The man's wife prepared Khalid's order, while the other merchant realized that Khalid, the man who bought their merchandise, was shopping there.
"This is Mr. Khalid, who bought our merchandise at that time?", asked one of them.
"Yes, how is the trade? "
"Alhamdulillah quite sir, but yes there has not been until the banong run out like that time,"
"When will we go again"
"Oh, I don't mean to ask you again"
"No matter what, if I have a celebration I will subscribe here"
"May the sustenance of Mr. Khalid be plentiful, O Allah, aamiin" said the merchant, raising his hands to pray for Khalid.
"Thank you for the prayer".
"This is the order, sir", the woman handed Khalid a parcel. Khalid paid for it.
"Take it back"
"Thank you sir" said the woman.
Then Khalid got into his car, he couldn't wait to see his wife. Khalid was very concerned with the small merchants, because he remembered his former self - all he had now was to start a small business.
"His name is Khalid?", asked the Egyptian martabak merchant's husband to the fry seller.
"Yes, I happen to know his name. He used to pray in the mosque there, he also became a donor of the mosque. That's why the mosque is so grand now.
"Is he Muhammad Khalid the owner of M.K Group? "
"I think yes, his name is Muhammad Khalid."
The Egyptian martabak merchant's husband looked very surprised, his face pale.
"Hey, what's wrong here. pale face" his wife scolded.
"Not what".
"Cambet yes, say mas. from work is not clear. mending mas help mother sales".
"Yes, this has helped my mom for a few days".

While in an apartment, Silvana just finished bathing. Still wearing a towel and then he sat in front of his dressing table, wearing a series of cosmetics that he recommended at Fatimah Glow clinic.
"It's true that Khalid wants a divorce, but last time he mentioned his wife he used to smile instead".
Silvana combed her long, wet hair.
"Maybe they may not be divorced, right before the divorce trial is usually mediation first, who knows they are not divorced." Silvana speaks for herself trying to guess what happened to Khalid's household.
"Eh, is it true that bang Khalid's wife is having an affair with Arsya? ah, I can't think no before I know the truth."
Silvana has known Arsya since college. They studied at the same Faculty of Medicine, Arsya studied one year under him.
"When I meet Arsya I'll ask her if she knows Khalid's wife".

Khalid took Syafina's medicine for dinner tonight, before the nurse returned to explain the schedule for giving Syafina to Khalid. Actually Syafina already understood what drugs she should take tonight, but Khalid wanted to make sure his wife ate the medicine after she finished giving Syafina medicine, Khalid put the medicine back in the medicine box.
"Have you drowsy Fin?, go to sleep"
"Not bang, bang can I ask you a favor? "
"Yes, of course you can, if your brother's wife asks for help"
"Please apply body lotion to my hands and feet bang, I have not used lotion for a long time. My skin feels dry". After her right hand was broken Syafina had difficulty activating using her left hand.
"Where is Fin? "
"That's bang, the lotion's different there's day and night"
Khalid took out his wife's body lotion night, then poured it into his palm. Khalid rubbed the lotion on Syafina's hands and feet until evenly distributed.
"Syafina what the fuck is this, not that I don't want to, but I'm going to be tempted" Khalid grumbled in his heart. But he still did his wife's will.
"Thank you bang"
"Ehmm" khalid nodded, then he approached shafina. Khalid held Syafina's chin close to Syafina's face.
"What do you want? " ask Syafina nervously.
Khalid did not answer, but he immediately kissed his wife's pink lips. Khalid enjoyed the lips long enough, until she took his face away. His breath gasps.
"Have bang, am I sleeping? " Syafina was afraid of her husband's ablaze, while she was not ready.
"He's sleeping" Khalid rattled his wife's hair in a fit of anxiety.
Syafina lay down and closed her eyes, and Khalid covered his wife.
"O Allah, I will never cease to be grateful for your favor to me, O God, you give me a wife who soothes my heart, protect her, O God. While I can't always be with him" Khalid prayed in his heart.
