The Secret of Zoya's Love

Love of the Past

Early in the morning after the dawn prayer, they went home. Ale who was still asleep was lifted Hans put in the backseat. Even so, in the middle of the journey he woke up as well, as the sun began to show his face and the light penetrated the car window glass making the little girl blink her eyes.

"Mr....! " call Ale to make Zoya look back.

"Ale is awake? We're on our way home" Zoya said. Ale got up and sat leaning back, the puffed-up boy still looked confused.

"Zoy, want some soto breakfast? Here there is a soto that is famous for delicious. "tawning Hans when turning will pass the soto stalls are quite phenomenal in the city.

"Ale, want to eat soto? " Zoya asked his daughter.

"Don't want to, Ale wants to boil chicken made by Mama! " ale replied, Then Zoya looked at her husband and made Hans understand to head straight to the house.

The streets are still quite stretchy, until they quickly reach the complex of his house. Hans frowned, when he saw a sedan parked on the side of the road right in front of his house.

Hans turned his car around curiously, he was already impatient to know who was coming so early in the morning.

"Zoy, I go first, yeah! " Hans got out of the car first because he wanted to see immediately who had come to visit.

His eyes were now fixed on the window glass he passed through, as if he wanted to penetrate the view to find out who his guest was.

"Nolla. "grepty Hans, when he saw Naura sitting restlessly waiting for him.

When she saw Hans standing at the door, Naura rushed straight in front of the man. His clasped hand took Hans's hanging hand.

"Hans, Aksara threatened me, if I still want to get divorced she won't let my life settle down. Today, we're going to do the first mediation, right? " he said in a hoarse voice, his words sounding very frightened. Aksara is the husband of Naura who did not receive divorce from her.

"Calm down, I'm sure that during the divorce proceedings, she won't dare to mess with you" Hans said.

"Sorry, excuse me...! " zoya's voice made the two turn their heads and shifted their position that was originally in front of the door, so that Zoya and Ale could pass.

Zoya just passed by, though her heart was as in a crumb as her eyes stared at the hands of the two people intertwined. Zoya immediately brought Ale into the kitchen.

"Ale, want some milk? " take Zoya when they're in the kitchen.

"Yes Mama. Ma, who's aunt? Why is the cell holding papa's hand? It's just in the hospital, too " asked Ale while tailing behind Zoya. That meant Hans let Ale see their interaction.

"Ale, breakfast potluck, huh? Tomorrow, mama will make delicious chicken porridge for Ale. "persuade Zoya who agreed to Ale.

Zoya prepares Hans's clothes, puts Hans's work shirt on the bed, then invites Ale to take a bath first.

Zoya had indeed deliberately fed Ale first without waiting for Hans because she was afraid Ale would be late. He also didn't know what time Hans would be leaving for the office, until Ale finished his breakfast, but the two of them were still in the living room.

"Honey, don't run! " cried Zoya as she saw Ale running looking for Hans to salim.

Zoya gasped in shock, as did Ale who instantly stopped his steps, upon reaching the living room.

"Don't you, poor Aunt Papa Ale! " ansaid Naura with a smile towards Ale.

"Ale ayok salim with Papa! We can be late." Ale then salutes Hans who Zoya follows. Zoya leaves the house with disappointment, anger and of course, pain in her chest .

Inside the Car, Zoya was silent, not even realizing that Ale had been watching her since. Mr. Dino stopped his car in front of Ale school, They went down, Zoya drove Ale to the front gate.

"Mama .. come here! " tele said with a gesture of her hand for Zoya to bow. Zoya followed what Ale said.

"Mama, I love you! " his whisper then kisses Zoya's cheek. Zoya was shocked, Zoya's eyes were rounded and she could not bear to laugh.

"I love you to, baby! " Zoya kissed Ale on the forehead before the boy ran towards the classroom. Only Ale always made her happy. He turned to the car to return home. It feels very lazy if there is still a woman with her husband.

Since not getting an agreement on the first mediation Hans seemed busy until the second mediation that had just been done was said to fail, because the insistent Aksara did not want a divorce and Naura already wanted a divorce.

"Ehm. um... Someone seems to be very busy with someone. " Ryan cleared his throat at the door of his room.

Hans only glanced at Ryan who walked up to him on the sof. Ryan sat down in front of his best friend. Hans is tired, lately the time is a lot seized with the Naura divorce case. He also could not bear to let Naura be depressed alone with her current condition.

"It looks like your relationship is more than just a lawyer and a client. Yesterday I saw you guys having lunch together at the front cafe." Ryan replied with a heart.

"However we have been friends" Hans replied.

"Even more than friends, right, Hans? " Ryan kept pushing Hans. But, Hans was silent. Ryan just doesn't want Hans stuck on a past love that once dumped him. How the slump of Hans at that time made Ryan not like Naura too much.

Hans only let out a long sigh, his heart back in confusion. His closeness to Naura this late makes Hans recall all of their fond memories. In fact, he spent a lot of time accompanying Naura.

"Hans.... How's Zoya? " ask Ryan softly.

"From the beginning I said. There's no way I'm with Zoya. But we have to hold on until Mama understands. Zoya is too small to live with me. He also understands that we just need time to get this done" Hans said, with a fiery flame. He felt Ryan was too pressing for him to make a choice.

"Does that mean you're going to choose Naura? "

"I didn't think there. My orientation is currently working on Nolla's divorce and making sure Nolla is safe and well" Hans replied.

"I hope you think of Zoya's position! " Ryan felt sorry for the girl. According to him, it shouldn't be a girl like Zoya to be played like this.

"Be quiet! Don't take care of me too much. " That sentence was so cynical toward Ryan.

"All right, I'm out first. Hopefully you can choose something right and not regret later on" said Ryan with disappointment because of Hans' words. But he already memorized how Hans was.
