The Heart that Chose

Chapter 67

In the middle of the busy party Khalid felt not at home because he had not attended a party like this for a long time. The atmosphere of the party made him feel worried. After the opening ceremony of Fatimah Glow Clinic was finished, Angel had a party. Khalid thought it was just a dinner together but it turned out to be a sparkling party that was accompanied by music like at the club. While Fatimah's mother was invited by Mr. Yos and Bu Wilona berilaturrahmi to his house. The party was held at a hotel owned by Mr. Yos himself.

Angel in her tight black dress with a hemisphere showing her thighs. The woman approached Khalid to ask him to dance while Khalid was sitting on the bench alone.

Angela pulled Khalid's hand, and asked Khalid to stand up.

"Come on Khal, enjoy tonight"

"Sorry Angel, I'm here" Khalid refused.

"Come on" Angel tightened her hand grip on Khalid's arm.

"I'm not used to parties like this Angel" Khalid pulled his hand from Angela's grasp. But he spoke quite slowly because he did not want to be rude.

A waiter walks past them carrying a tray filled with drinks, Angela picks up the two drinks. It means for himself and Khalid.

"Khalid if you don't want to dance, at least accompany me to drink" Angel handed Khalid a glass of water.

"Come on, this isn't booze. There's no booze at this party". Angel thrusts the drink closer to Khalid. Khalid finally accepted it. Then Angel sat on the sofa that was nearby.

"Sit here with me, you have no friends either. Sherin's over there dancing with her friend"

Finally Khalid sat down beside Angela, and he sat at a distance with Angel.

"Your mom is probably nostalgic for my mom and dad, you're here first" Angel said.

"Maybe in an hour I'll take my mom home" Khalid said.

"Hey, just let your mom talk to my mom and dad, and you see Sherina looks so happy, I rarely see her that way." Sherina is seen dancing with her female friends, occasionally looking in the direction where Khalid and Angel are sitting.

"Okay, but I really can't stay here long, I feel a little dizzy and hot in here".

"You can rest, I can take you" Angela offered.

Khalid shook his head, he finished the drink in the glass he was holding. Khalid leaned his slightly dizzy head against the back of the sofa. He closed his eyes. Sherina who from afar saw Khalid who didn't seem to feel well.

"I went there" Sherina said to her friend. Sherina then approached Khalid and Angel who were chatting.

"What a bang, you don't seem to be feeling well"

"Yes Sher, I just want to take a break"

"Let me drive, there are plenty of rooms. Later you can occupy one of them" Angela offered herself.

Angela and Sherina looked at each other for a moment.

"I want to rest in my restaurant" said Khalid, feeling very sleepy.

"But bang Khalid, here closer. You can rest faster" Angela still insisted. But Khalid hurried to walk away from the place.

When he got to the ground floor, Khalid fell in front of the reception desk. Sherina who followed him from behind immediately caught him.

"Bang, it's dangerous if you drive alone. Let me take you" Sherin offered.

A receptionist saw them.

"Sir let us be delivered with the mother, it seems like the father is not healthy" said the receptionist.

"Come on, where's your car key? " Sherina pulled Khalid's hand.

Khalid hands the car keys to Sherina, Sherina guiding Khalid on the walk.

Angela who just got downstairs saw from a distance Khalid and Sherina had gotten into the car, she felt very upset because she could not be alone with Khalid.

Sherina who was driving the car, she glanced at Khalid who looked sweaty.

"You're overheated, huh,? "

Khalid nodded, he was overheated. Sherina didn't turn on the AC.

Sherina then took the mineral water from her bag, and gave it to Khalid.

"Drink this, is there anyone who mixes medicine into your drink? " ask Sherina.

"Okay, maybe. Hurry up Sher I want a break"

Sherina accelerates the speed of her car, Khalid's breath is seen panting he gets hotter. Finally they arrived at Mother's restaurant owned by Khalid who was in City C.

Sherina rushes out of the car and approaches the two waiters inside the restaurant to ask the waiter to help lift the half-asleep Khalid.

Half-asleep Khalid was still able to think.

"What medicine has Angel mixed into my drink, O Allah protect your servant"

"Why Mr Khalid ? "

"She seems to be heavily intoxicated, please lift her up to her dugout"

The two servants lifted up Khalid's body, while Khalid was asleep. Actually she heard the maid's voice but she just let the waiter lift her up while Sherina followed behind.

Syafina was in her room alone, sitting on the sofa. She thought of some quarrels between her and her husband this late. All of this happened because of misunderstanding.

She had met Viana. He hopes Viana can make Arsya fall in love and forget about him. There will be less misunderstanding between her and her husband.

Syafina stared at her wedding photo with Khalid on the wall above their bed. Seen in the photo Syafina like forcing a smile while Khalid looks smiling very sweet.

"Sorry Fina bang, for a month I did not give you your rights, and until now I was still a wife who was brought for you".

Syafina felt guilty for two weeks that Khalid had not earned his rights as a husband, initially because Syafina was sick but after that she felt very upset because there was only a woman who sought the attention of her husband. Angelo. Now her husband must be with Angel, thought Syafina.

"Let's just say mom can block Angel from approaching my husband" murmured Syafina. Then he went to the bathroom for ablution because the time of Isha prayer had arrived.

at 20:00 After the completion of the prayer Isha Shafina prayed "O Allah Protect my husband, make his affairs easy, strengthen his faith and take care of him for me and my son, O God. Take care of our household. Aamiin's"

Fatimah who had long talked about many things with Wilona felt it was time to return to town B to their home. The clock has shown that at 10pm Khalid and Sherina have not given it.

"What's Fat, nervous? " ask Miss Wilona.

"My son hasn't ngabarin Wil"

"At least, the party was cool, the party was until midnight. The beginning also finished magrib earlier."

"But we're from far away Wil, I think it's time we went home. I'll just call Khalid"

Fatimah took the cell phone from her handbag, then looked for Khalid's contact.

A long, continuous tone was heard but not picked up by Khalid.

"Of course, it's fun again. Naturally if his wife is jealous she likes to forget herself if the same friend of his"

Then Fatimah tried to call Sherina's number.

"Not active" muttered Fatimah.

"Wil, can I have Angel's phone number, Sherina's number is off and Khalid's not picking up the phone from me"

"Yes, it's Fat" Wilona showed Angel's phone number.

Fatimah called Angel, before long the voice of Angel across there

"Hallo with whom is this? "

"Sorry Angel, this is Khalid's aunt, where is Khalid? "

"Oh aunt, Khalid went with Sherina Tan, didn't they come? "

"No, what time did they leave? "

"It's been a long time tan, around 7:30"

"Oo, it's been a while. Where do they tell you? "

"Hemm, it looks like it's going to bang Khalid tan's restaurant."

"Thank you, Angel, yes"

"Yes aunt, same thing"

Fatimah wondered why Khalid and Sherina had not told them where they were going.

"Well, why don't they tell me they're going to a restaurant?" fatimah in the Heart. Actually Fatimah also wanted to visit the restaurant owned by her son.

Syafina goes down to the kitchen to make pregnant milk, usually Khalid who makes it. But tonight her husband hasn't come home.

"Tumben brother is not nervous, usually in the office or wherever he goes must be ngabari," Syafina said in her heart.

Syafina sat down on Fina's table chair and drank all the vanilla-flavored milk she made, then she took the phone out of her pajama pocket and called her husband.

"Kok is not lifted, what's on the way?, but it can use a headset"

"God may not have happened to my husband" Syafina felt bad.

Syafina went back to her room, near the stairs she was in bed with bi Lastri.

"Bi later if bang Khalid and mom open the door yes, maybe soon they arrive."

"Well miss" bi Lastri nodded.
