The In-Law Choices

Chapter 2

At eight in the morning, Rehan was already in the Director's room in one of the well-known company branches located in the city of Makassar.

Every day he was always busy with piles of documents available on his desk every morning. But this morning he was wondering where all the documents went.

He then enjoyed his free time by surfing social media listening to the latest news on a favorite youtube channel.

"Until this moment, the company's top official Purbalingga Jayangkara, which is the number one company in Indonesia, is still investigating the existence of the sole heir of all assets of his wealth. Home and abroad have moved hundreds of investigators and IT experts to find the whereabouts of a baby believed to have been kidnapped by one of Purbalingga Jayangkara's great competitors 23 years ago". Said the readers on a YouTube channel specifically to update the latest news about the noble family of the company Purbalingga Jayangkara.

"It's been missing for twenty-three years, still in search!". Rehan murmured annoyed at what he heard from the newsreader on his phone.

If given the chance, he'd like to try taking a DNA test, "Now I'm the missing kid". Biologicals.

Reham imagined himself to be the sole heir to so many wealth assets that he could not spend up to seven offspring though.

Rehan's daydreams were caved in when he heard a knock from outside. He also improved his sitting position because he knew who would come to see him now.

"Come in".

The door opened, revealing a beautiful woman with a polish on her face that looked natural, wearing a mini-suit that was so tempting to the faith, his level legs are wrapped in thin black socks and look up to the thighs, the highheels he wears add to his elegance.

Huffs

Rehan sighed, he always reprimanded his secretary for using a more polite and closed shirt, but his words were never done by his secretary.

"Excuse me sir! The client you are waiting for is already heading to the meeting room now, hope you are ready and come with me now!". Imbuh Anita, Rehan's secretary.

Rehan immediately stood up and walked in front of Anita towards the meeting room.

As Rehan walked towards his chair, his eyes caught the figure of the woman he had longed for. Rehan's eyes could not be separated from looking at the woman, his heart was beating very fast pumping blood.

But quickly Rehan brushed it off, the fond memories of her being buried long after she was married to Rehan.

The feeling of Rehan when in the marriage residence was so bad and sad, there was no spirit to continue living again. He also had a financial crisis because his father's company was suddenly out of business, a week later his father died of a heart attack, increasingly making him demoralized, to the presence of Aisyah as an encouragement for his life.

During the two years he established a friendship with Aisyah, Rehan managed to establish his own company which was pioneered from scratch with Aisyah as his secretary as well as his personal assistant. Aisyah is a contributor to the biggest and bright ideas in raising her business.

Although Aisyah never occupied the school, but Rehan could not deny the intelligence of the woman. Aisha has potential as an entrepreneur.

Being indebted to Aisyah, Rehan decided to question Aisha as his wife, although in fact he never put his feelings on Aisha and got about an from her mother.

Aisyah's face was suddenly present in Rehan's mind, memories after memories were re-spinning in his memories. Confused with his own feelings.

The pat on Rehan's shoulder resuscitated him from his daydream.

"Sir Rehan why bengong aja anyway? Tuh look! You're being a spectacle now!". Anita's whisper is right in Rehan's ear.

In front of Rehan sat a charismatic man named Thomas Anggara who was none other than the Manager of the Director of the company who would do a cooperation contract with Rehan's company.

Next to Mr. Thomas, sat a woman named Desi Mulan Sari who was putting on a face not like the closeness of Rehan and Anita. He is a former Rehan who can cut his heart until it is no longer shaped.

Rehan turned his gaze away from seeing Desi, feeling longing and hurt mixed into one. I want him to cancel the contract of cooperation, but he has to prepare professionally, he does not have to throw in the affairs of heart and business.

Rehan became not concentrated on listening to the presentation of Mr. Thomas' subordinates until it was finished.

After signing the cooperation contract, Rehan tells Anita to go home early because she feels unwell, the turmoil in her heart that has disturbed her sense after meeting her most beautiful ex-lover earlier.

"If there's a document that needs to be signed today, I'll ask Lucas to take it to your house!". Said Anita releasing Rehan's return that looks lethargic.

Rehan opened the car door and was shocked to hear the sound of his son crying loudly inside. With a quick step, Rehan opened the door of the house and looked for the whereabouts of the crying sound.

His heart was so furious to hear his son cry without anyone to ease his cry.

"Where is Aisha? The child is allowed to cry alone in the room!". Rehan muttered furiously to Aisha.

Arriving in the room, Rehan was shocked by the situation of Albar who was sobbing as if he had cried long enough in this room. She took her son and hugged him warmly.

Rehan patted his son's back slowly and sang a song to comfort him to stop crying.

Rehan searches for Aisha's whereabouts while putting Albar to sleep. He went downstairs looking in every corner of the room, but nil, he couldn't find Aisyah.

When entering one of the guest rooms downstairs, Rehan became increasingly blood-ridden to see his mother was sleeping soundly there, even though Albar had been crying since. And his mother did not come to comfort his grandson.

But she couldn't blame her mother for knowing that her mother, when she was asleep, was like a dead man, if it wasn't her own desire to wake up or the smell of the food she liked that woke her up, even if the earthquake hit her mother would never wake up.

Rehan heard the footsteps that were about to enter his house, he knew it must be his wife, he would interrogate Aisyah right now.

When she was at the door, Aisya happened to open the door and showed Aisyah looking at some plastic groceries.

"Assynoga". Aisha gave her regards.

"Eh, bang Rehan is home". Aisyah looked surprised to see Rehan had come home and was carrying their child.

Aisha approached Rehan and greeted her husband politely. She didn't know that her husband was like a bomb ready to explode at any moment. But Rehan had to be patient and bear because his son was asleep in his cradle.

After putting her shopping items in the kitchen, Aisyah went back to Rehan to check on her son's condition.

"Albar sleep, baby! Here bang! I put her in the room to make her more comfortable". Imbuh Aisha took Albar from Rehan. Aisyah brought Albar into the room and returned to the cooking kitchen for her in-laws and husband.

Rehan who saw Aisha was already in the kitchen, he approached Aisyah and began to interrogate her.

"Where are you from, huh?". Ask Rehan ketus.

"I'm from a bang market, buying a chicken mom and and some other stuff for me to cook". Aisyah honestly did not look at Rehan and remained focused on cutting vegetables.

Rehan was provoked with emotion by seeing Aisyah's non-serious attitude answering her question.

"May not if you talk see your interlocutor". Rehan said in a high tone.

Aisyah was surprised because this was the first time Rehan said in a high voice. Aisyah turned her head towards Rehan, she saw her husband's face was already visibly holding back emotions towards her. Aisyah suddenly realized that she had made a mistake and immediately apologized before her husband's anger grew.

"Sorry bang! I'm just in a hurry to prepare food for you and mom". Aisyah.

"Why don't you just cook the stock in the fridge? You can leave Albar alone!".

"There was mom! Mom asked me to go get some chicken because she was so hungry and just wanted to eat chicken, so I had to leave Albar with her for a while". Answer Aisha honestly.

"You know when I came home, Albar cried long enough to sob and know? Why not ask a neighbor to go buy it or order it in the gijek application? Why can't you think that? Don't make your mother the reason for your stupidity!". Read Rehan with the emotions that rule him.

Aisyah was unable to reply to her husband's words, she did not think of it as what Rehan said, she was downcast and only able to shed tears seeing her husband so angry at her.

"Mom gave me an idea like that! But it's your wife who never listens to your mother's opinion". Wahida came to them suddenly and petrified the fire of his son so that he would become more angry with his son-in-law who thought he was stupid.

Rehan stared madly at his wife, he swallowed his mother's speech round and round without thinking first as before.
