The Heart that Chose

Chapter 77

Khalid and Syafina had arrived home, as they walked through the living room Sherina and Fatimah were talking together. Khalid and Shafina passed by them without reprimanding him, instead Khalid refused to rebuke his mother but he refused to see Sherina. Seeing Khalid just passing them both Fatimah rebuked Khalid.

"Khalid, you'll be back here by Khal"

Khalid looked back, "yes ma'am". Khalid then put his groceries in the kitchen, there was the lastri bi.

"Bi please save this groceries" Khalid ordered.

"Yes sir" bi Lastri nodded then immediately took the groceries from his master's hand.

Khalid then took Syafina up the stairs to his room. Sherina tried to hold back her dislike of seeing Khalid and Syafina alone because she was talking to Fatimah. He did not want Fatimah to see his face that did not like to look at Syafina.

In his room Khalid and Syafina sat on the sofa to unwind for a moment.

"What did you tell me to see him? "

"Just meet first let me know what you want to say"

"It's certain to talk about it, I'm lazy there is Sherin" Khalid rubbed his face up to his hair.

"Don't run from the problem, you better face it".

"Again dizzy thinking about it Fina, brother was afraid that something bad was happening with our household," Khalid said as he lost his spirit. His eyes straight ahead.

"Here" Syafina pulled her husband's shoulder to lie on his lap. Syafina rubbed her husband's hair gently. At least this way might be able to calm her husband.

"Our household is being tested, I promise I will always support my husband. Come on, Muhammad Khalid, we're dealing with this the same"

"Do you really believe your husband is innocent? " Khalid looked up at his wife.

"If not me then who else should trust my husband" Syafina gave her smile to calm her husband down. And that smile could strengthen Khalid.

"Promise yes we are always the same"

"Promise" Then Shafina kissed her husband's forehead, feeling like a force for Khalid in the face of the problems that befell him.

Tok tok sounds room door on tap. Khalid then got up and opened the door.

"Sorry Mr. Khalid Madam Fatimah asked me to call my father"

"Yes I was there" Khalid turned to his wife as if asking for permission.

"Get me mom"

Khalid nodded, then he walked down the stairs to meet his mother. Arriving in the family room Khalid sat opposite his mother, next to his mother was Sherin.

"What's wrong mom? "

"Khal, I want to talk about the problem of your actions. This is a very embarrassing act let alone someone else knowing it. We can't guarantee they won't tell anyone else."

"Yes I know it's probably ma'am, we can't guarantee Anton and the receptionist didn't tell anyone else. "

"Well, like I said yesterday. You better get married wait for Sherin and Robi to get divorced. Robi just filed for divorce with a religious court".

"Mom, if there's no other way out, I don't have to marry Sherina. How does Syafina feel?"

"You're the head of the household, speak well with your wife. I'm sure Syafina will understand. Later the mother will also invite Syafina to speak. "

"Well, Syafina has said that if she doesn't want to share, it means that if I marry Sherina she will go" Khalid said.

"Why keep quiet Khal, you have to take responsibility for what you've done"

"But mom I doubt if I'm right"

"Khalid, what do you mean?, you think Sherina is lying. You yourself have seen the results of the doctor's examination. I don't want to have a son who runs away from responsibility"

"Well, what you think I engineered all this, do you think the doctor lied. My brother chose his doctor"

"Yes, I'm sorry I didn't mean to say you lied to Sher. But I still can't believe I'm doing something like that"

"Bang, I've loved you for a long time. I want to be your wife but not in the wrong way. Maybe this is our destiny, united in this way"

Khalid kept quiet to hear Sherina's words. He could not think of that day when he had to marry Sherina and that day Shafina would leave.

Khalid kept silent and did not respond to his mother's long words.

"Khalid, did you hear what Mom just said? "

"Ohmm ma'am, I heard"

"Okey, now you rest first,"

Khalid had returned to his room, where he found Shafina reading the Aquran. Seeing her husband come Syafina finished her sentence.

"What did mom say bang? "

"Later you talk, we pray first. After that we had lunch outside"

This afternoon Arsya made a deal with Reyhan, they're going to find the man they saw on the cctv tape.

To make it easier they use Reyhan motorcycles. It was indeed a rare sight to see these two handsome men getting along. It's all for the woman they love.

Reyhan had previously asked the painter to paint the face of the man in the cctv, so they could ask anyone if anyone knew him. They deliberately did not spread the photo in a certain place, or spread it on social media. For fear that the man knows that he is being sought.

Reyhan and Arsya had asked everyone they met, but no one knew him yet.

"Hhh, how big the city is looking for this one man is very difficult" grumbled Arsya.

He looks hot in the hot sun. Yes, he was almost never hot and out of the house on a motorcycle. Not to mention the many eyes that looked at him with strange gazes. Maybe because he was so handsome and white, and only once was that seen.

A group of women who were sitting drinking in a city park were seen looking at and talking about Arsya. Arsya realized it made him grow sultry.

"You why Shay?" ask Reyhan.

"It's okay"

"Are you ashamed to see that girl maybe they want to get to know you" Reyhan teased.

"Ckk, not my type"

"Hey, Syafina was a student as well"

"Where is possible"

"Originally you know that Syafina used to see that I was playing sports in college, she first invited me to acquaintances. It's the same with them".

In the past Syafina and Reyhan one campus, when Reyhan studied Ners profession at that time Syafina attended the nursing academy level one. At that time they only knew between sister and sister level, when the cooperation in the hospital they began to approach. But there's Arsya and Marsella among them.

"Obviously I know Syafina she's been a near-perfect woman, meeting my criteria"

"If it's not afternoon yet, we go back there" Reyhan asked.

"I told you to call the police" Arsya said.

"After this, if we have not met again, we report. The two men continued their search.

Syafina and Khalid were having lunch, this time at Bella's cafe. Khalid had not been there for a long time, this time Khalid ordered the same meal as the one Syafina ordered. They ate their lunch greedily for a moment forgetting the events of these few days.

After she finished eating, Syafina asked her husband what he was talking about with his mother.

"Abang, what did you say? "

"Mom said I should take responsibility for what I did by marrying Sherina. He doesn't want to have a boy who runs away from responsibility"

Hearing that Syafina was struck by lightning, it turns out that her in-laws did not play with her words that night. Syafina was already hard to hold back her tears even dripped.

"Fina, are we going to the car. You can cry there"

Syafina nodded, then they both stood up and Khalid paid the cashier.
