The Tarnished Wife

"Ah, she must be jealous."

After Zayn spoke at length with Reza in the study. He came out of the room with a breath of relief. It felt like his chest was plong because it had revealed its heart to his brother. Five years, Reza never wanted to talk to him, even for the look of the man was reluctant. Zayn repeatedly apologized to his brother before he left the country. However, Reza never accepted Zayn's apology.

But today, the older brother softened a little. Zayn commented a smile and entered his room. He looked around the room and smiled. Five years, he hasn't stepped in this room, but it's still clean and nothing has moved. Yes, Bi Nani has always cleaned this room.

Rara waits for her husband downstairs, accompanied by Mirna and Kemal.

“Mom, Dad was a long time ago,” Zoey said staring at the mother while struggling on her lap.

“Daddy is still talking to Uncle,” replied Rara.

“I want to catch up with Dad to the top, Mom,” says Zac.

Mirna who heard the whining of her granddaughter also rose from her seat and invited Zac to go upstairs. “Ayo Zac, Oma transfer to top.”

Mirna was also curious about what her two sons were doing there.

“Yeay, Come on, Oma.” Zac got up from his seat and approached Mirna.

“I'm also coming.” Zoey runs towards Mirna and Zac.

Kemal just smiled at the smart and active twins. “They're getting smarter, Ra.”

Rara nodded. “Iya, Pa. Rara is lucky to have them.”

Kemal smiled back. “You didn't come to the top?” tanyakanya.

Rara shakes. “Ngga, Pa.”

Rara does not want to remember about her story with Reza, because in this house they did spend a lot of time together, especially in Reza's room which is currently filled by Manda and Noah.

During his stay at this house, Reza actually more often sleep in the workspace. He himself avoids sleeping in his room, because the room holds a million memories with Rara when the woman was still his wife. The presence of Manda who replaced Rara as well as occupy her bed, did not make Reza's heart move to be able to love the woman. I don't know.

“Daddy,” shouted Zac when he found his father was in a room they were about to go through.

Zayn. “Hei.”

“Whose room, Dad?” ask Zoey.

“this is your Daddy's room,” replied Mirna.

“Oh, yes?” ask Zoey enthusiastically.

“Yes, it used to be a time when little Daddy slept in this room up to big.”

“Wah, Daddy also likes Captain America?” Zac saw the poster behind the open door of his father's closet.

“Yes, because Daddy was also a captain,” Zayn replied while carrying a large box from inside the closet.

The big box he kept was neat before he left this house.

“Daddy a captain?” zoey asked confusedly.

“Yes, Daddy was a basketball captain,” Zayn replied making Zac laugh.

“Captain America with different basketball captains, Daddy.”

“Sama, only. The important thing is both captain.” Zayn rubbed his son's head and carried the big box over the bed.

Zac left his waist and shook his head while laughing. Daddy is weird, obviously different captain America with captain basketball.

Mirna approached her adopted son. “Zayn, have you met Reza?”

Zayn nodded.

“Then, how?” ask Mirna again.

Zayn took a rough breath, then held onto both of Mirna's shoulders. “Quiet, Ma. It's all over. Brother is different. He can already forgive me.”

“Oh, thank goodness.” Mirna immediately wrapped her hands around Zayn's waist and Zayn hugged the fragile shoulder.

“Already, Mama doesn't need much thought. Now we are fine,” said Zayn.

“But Mama still thinks about it, Zayn.”

“Just pray, Ma. May my brother be happy always. Like Mama who always prayed for happiness for me.”

“Always, Sweetheart. Mama always pray for Mama's children to always be happy.”

Zayn kissed his mother.

There, Zac and Zoey have opened a large box that has made them curious to see the contents.

“Dad, this is Mommy?” ask Zoey.

“This is Daddy and Mommy small time?” ask Zac.

Zayn smiled and nodded. “Yes, this has Mommy.”

“No I'll take him.”

Zac and Zoey snatch the big box for them to bring to the mother.

“What is this gift from Daddy for Mommy?” ask Zac.

Zayn nodded back.

“Yeay .. we should give this to Mommy.” right away Zac and Zoey looked cheerful.

They were excited to bring the big box together.

“Zac, Zoey. Don't run!” said Mirna who followed her grandson's footsteps.

Zayn approached his two children when he was on the stairs. Zac and Zoey seemed to have trouble carrying the item when going down the stairs.

“It's done, Daddy brought it. You guys get off first.”

Before Zac and Zoey's feet came down the stairs. The sound of a grown man calling them.

“Zac, Zoey. Not salim with Uncle first?” ask Reza from a distance.

In Reza's room, Manda is asleep with Noah. The woman looks tired born and inner.

Reza approaches Zayn and Rara's two children. Then, Zac and Zoey glanced at the father at a glance to ask for approval.

Zayn nodded his head.

Zac and Zoey kiss Reza on the back of the hand after the man approaches them. Reza smiled and rubbed Zac and Zoey's heads. Reza had sin on these two children, because for five years, he separated these two children from his mother.

Reza crouches in front of Zac and Zoey. “Zac, Zoey. Sorry Uncle yes.”

“Indeed Uncle is wrong what?” tanya Zac is humorous by Zoey.

Reza smiled as she looked at Zoey's face that was so similar to her mother's.

“Uncle Reza apologizes for never seeing us in Paris,” Zayn replied.

“Yes, Uncle has to go to Paris. There we had a nice tree house. Isn't that Zoey?” Zac glanced at his sister.

“Yes. Uh. But we no longer live there, Brother,” Zoey said.

“Oh yes, forgot.” Zac patted his forehead.

“Then, Uncle must come to our home.”

“Ya.”

Reza smiled again looking at the two Zayn children who are smart and compact. “Ya, sometime Uncle will play to your home.”

Zayn and Mirna smiled. Then Reza took Zayn down. Below, Rara had been waiting for her husband from earlier.

“What do you bring, Dad?” ask Rara who saw Zayn carrying a big box.

“Gift to Mommy,” replied Zoey and Zac also nodded.

“Gift?” rara asked confusedly as she glanced towards her husband.

“Let's open it. Come!” Zayn takes Rara's hand to get out of the house to Sanjaya's house.

Zac and Zoey are accompanied by Kemal, Mirna, and Reza to the terrace. Zayn returns to Reza and they embrace. Reza received the hug, making Kemal, Mirna and Rara smile, because the two brothers finally reconciled.

Then, Zayn kissed the back of his parents' hands. Zayn and Kemal embraced.

“Often play here, Zayn,” said Kemal in between their arms.

Zayn nodded. “Iya, Pa.”

Mirna hugged her son. Then, take turns with Rara, Zac and Zoey who also kiss the back of Mirna and Kemal's hands.

Rara hesitated to greet Reza, because they were no longer muhrim. Rara passed Reza and did not shake hands with her ex-husband.

“Ra, you don't greet me?” ask Reza without sin.

Rara turned her head towards Reza, then glanced at Zayn who gave his approval through her eyes.

Rara approached Reza. The man had already extended his hand to Rara and Rara received the helping hand. Then, Reza slightly brought her body closer to Rara. He kissed both of Rara's cheeks in turn.

Rara was silent and glanced at Zayn who was currently turning his face.

“Ah, surely she is jealous,” Inner Rara saw her husband's expression.

Though Reza did that for the last time, as well as the antidote longs and to convince the heart that at this time Rara is just his sister-in-law. That'sthat's all.
