Verko and Zulfa's wedding is over. Verko wants to take Zulfa to live with him. They had agreed before they got married. Devon doesn't mind that Zulfa lives with her husband. Although he has offered to Zulfa to stay at home or buy a new house. But it was rejected subtly by Verko, not because he did not want or feel he was capable. It was just that Verko did not want to trouble her in-laws.
Seeing also Elena who from the beginning had insulted him. Makes Verko put a lot of hate on her mother-in-law. He felt humiliated just because he had nothing. The scorn and scorn that he can make his heart ache. It was as if he was a lowly human being. So when Devon offers to buy a house, Verko refuses. Zulfa also demanded nothing. Even his wife chose to stay contracted.
Zulfa had already cleaned up the suitcase he was about to bring. He's put it all in there. This time Devon requested that they be delivered to the driver only, this time they did not refuse. Because Zulfa's stuff is good too. Before leaving, they say goodbye first to Devon and Elena.
"Papa, I'll go first. Take care of your health." said Zulfa while peeling the back of his hand.
"Yes, you take care of your health. Respect your husband, carry out his orders if it goes to good, leave ugliness. The key to a harmonious household is mutual trust. Put it in your household, have to trust each other. And take care of each other." Devon advised Verko and Zulfa.
"Yes pa, we will do that. Thank you pa." replied Zulfa smilingly hugging Devon.
"Yes, papa message you Verko. Take good care of your daughter, don't hurt her. Protect him from anything. Love and love Zulfa with all your heart. Papa now hand him over to you." Devon's words touched Zulfa.
"Yes pa, I promise I will always protect Zulfa and love my whole heart." Verko replied and kissed Devon's back as well.
"Go away and even get stale. When you go there, it's hard. He was poor, had nothing. Make it a shame, anyways if you want a balanced husband. Don't make a man a husband!!." chirped Elena with a sharp look towards Verko and Zulfa.
"What are you talking about. Watch your talk!! Instead of praying for the good even berate me like this." scolded Devon angrily heard the words of his wife.
"What to pray for them. If you are poor, then poor. Which can match people who are higher than them. How low taste!!" hardik Elena shortened her chest while turning her face the other way.
Zulfa does not accept to say his taste is low. He really loved Verko without seeing any treasure. "Mom can't dislike me, don't like seeing me. But never once have I lowered my husband's self-esteem. I accept his flaws and possessions are not everything. Your love does not lie in property." said Zulfa annoyed to hear her husband insulted by his stepmother.
"Emang loh eat with leaves? Sok said treasure is not everything. If you are short of money, borrow here and there. Don't have to doubt. Low appetites, make the family ashamed. Marry the same guy like him. To fulfill his life is difficult, especially plus want to feed the loh!." said Firsi from behind.
He was embarrassed to hear the scorn of people about them. And elbih chose to stay in the room until the event was over.
"I will prove that one day this situation will turn to you. Now I am poor, but that doesn't mean that one day I can change. Do not demean others if mama and Firsi do not know in the future what it looks like. No pa-pa now mama is insulting me. I will prove it someday." said Verko who was furious to hear the ridicule of his mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
"Doubt!! Talk high but the reality is low! If it's kere ya kere just don't need to be pretentious like a big guy. The appearance of the couplet, poor, iuuw trash!!" Firsi's last words ignited Zulfa and Devon's emotions. She did not accept her husband being humiliated like that.
"ENOUGH!! Papa never taught you to insult others Firsi. Watch what you say!! Is it worth you to say that to your sister-in-law?. You're still paying for college, look at Zulfa. He never asked for college. You should be an example of your brother not even insulting that makes his heart hurt." angry Devon to Firsi, look sharp eyes straight facing Firsi.
"Keep papa banding-banding want me to be with him! I was never right in Papa's eyes. It's always wrong, what I do isn't always right."
"The color you do is wrong. If your actions are right, you won't blame you. Is such insulting the right thing to do? Papa asked Firsi not to be silent." said Devon raised his voice.
"Papa is favoritism!." Firsi immediately passed away going to her room feeling irritated, angry, and even more resentful of Zulfa.
"Just because of him you yelled at Firsi. Yes, you are always favoritism, in your eyes only Zulfa is always right. You are too crazy!!." Elena was annoyed to see Devon defending Zulfa more and yelling at Firsi. He left there, intending to approach his daughter in the room.
"Huuf......You just go, don't listen to their words. Papa apologizes for the care of Mama and Firsi who are arbitrarily the same as you" said Devon staring softly at Verko and Zulfa.
"Papa doesn't need to apologize, it's not papa's fault. I'm so glad, we've said it first. Take good care of yourself." Zulfa replied holding his father's hand with a smile.
"You guys be careful on the road."
"Yes pa, we're saying goodbye." Devon nodded.
Verko took Zulfa into the car. The window opened, and Zulfa turned to wave at Devon. "By pa.." he said.
Devon just nodded and smiled looking at the car that was getting away from his yard. Until it is no longer visible. And Devon went inside.
🥀🥀🥀
The car driven by Verko and Zulfa has arrived in front of the rented house. Zulfa went down with Verko. The driver dropped off the Zulfa suitcase. After that Zulfa thanked his father's personal driver, because he had delivered him home.
Then the driver left. Verko takes over Zulfa's suitcase and takes her inside. He took the key and opened the door. Zulfa went inside with a bag in his hand.
"I'm sorry, my little house isn't like yours. Hopefully you can stay here." said Verko put Zulfa's suitcase in the front room.
"No pa-pa mas, I have not lived at home but in a dormitory. So make me a regular, as long as it's the same you." replied Zulfa smiling gently at Verko.
"Please dear." said Verko made Zulfa ashamed of himself called dear. His cheeks blushed like boiled crabs.
"Ahh our front room right?" asked Zulfa nervously covering his attitude earlier. It was fortunate that Verko did not see as Zulfa's cheeks blushed red.
"Yes, I put your suitcase near the closet. Tomorrow it's just being wiped out. Surely you too are tired, mending now you just rest" said Verko.
"I'm not tired mas, mengingan I sekaranh only. Let's relax tomorrow, you want to change?."
"You dong, when I was so late my wife took care of herself. Let me help you put the slide in." Zulfa said not tired, Verko also helped him to clean the suitcase. Open one by one, put clothes on, and other items.
Although simple Zulfa felt very happy to be married to the person he loved. Her husband also behaves as he is. Makes Zulfa amazed to see it. He also gave clothes in a suitcase to put in the closet.
After everything was settled, they rested for a while. Then Zulfa went to the bathroom to clean his body. Then he intended to cook, but since there was no supply of ingredients so he could not cook.
"Mas, in the kitchen there is no food. How will you eat it?." asked Zulfa approaching Verko who was in the guest room.
"Later to buy it, yes, I did not buy food. No one is masakin, if you eat outside the usual." replied Verko.
"There will be me now your wife. Tomorrow come with me shopping, yes, I want to buy groceries so as not to buy continue. The money can make a tube and healthier if you make it yourself. You want me to make coffee?." asked Zulfa who was given a nod by Verko.
Zulfa went to the kitchen to make her husband coffee. After Zulfa died, Verko was agitated. And a few times he breathed rough. It was like thinking about something, I don't know what. Which is clearly disturbing to him. Verko recalled Brima's words the day before her wedding. When Brima came home at midnight.
"You have to be honest and open with Zulfa after marriage. Don't let him be disappointed that you're hiding the truth. If you say it later and he has already accepted you as Verko.
It must be hard for him to accept being the real you. Since his love is not too deep with you, tell the truth after marriage later. So that later the disappointment is not too deep. Don't let you regret it later if you delay."
