The Tarnished Wife

You miss me too?

This morning Zac and Zoey are getting ready for school. It was the first day they met new friends. They also would not have expected when the one who would become their teacher was a beautiful Miss or was actually the woman who gave birth to the twins.

“Daddy will take us to school right?” ask Zac.

Zayn, Michlell, Zac, and Zoey were sitting at the dinner table for breakfast.

“Iya, Darling. Papa's gonna take you to school, because it's your first day. The next day we'll take Michelle. Okay.” Zayn raised his thumb up.

“OK,” replied Zac in the same style as the father.

“OK, Daddy.” Zoey smiled with her two ponytails as usual.

Zayn smiles and kisses the head of Zoey sitting next to him, while Zac dudu is opposite Zayn next to Michell.

“Oh, yes. When did you start Mich?” ask Zayn to his sister.

“Say Jack awaits the admission of new students. He advised me to take the public college test. He said the distance of the campus is not far from here.”

“Good idea. When is the test?” ask Zayn while feeding food to the mouth.

“Three months left. Jack has prepared a tutor to prepare for the exam.”

“OK. When did you start learning?” ask Zayn again.

“Today. Jack has set all his schedules.”

“Waw.” Zayn nodded. “You should thank him, Mich.”

Michelle nodded. “Ya, yes. I'll thank him if I get accepted into the state college.”

Zayn smiled and nodded. “Serah.”

After breakfast, Zac and Zaoey get into the father's car. Zayn drives the car to the same school as Rara's school. But unfortunately, today Rara is being permission so Rara's class is currently filled by another teacher.

And, Zayn knew that, because last night Reihan told me about his plan that would take Rara to pick up her mother who had just returned to Jakarta. On that basis too, Zayn dared to take his two children directly to this school, because there was no Rara.

“Hei there is a new child,” exclaim the children who are playing in the park.

Zayn comes with Zac and Zoey.

“They're your friends.” Zayn pointed at children the age of Zac and Zoey playing swings, slides and other games provided in the park.

Zac and Zoey's eyes follow the father's index finger.

“Assalamualaikum, Sir. Introduce, I am Zahra the principal of Taman Kanak Yayasan Salahudin Al Ayubi.” The middle-aged woman cupped her hands together on her chest.

Zayn looked up and did the same. “Waalaikumusalam, my Zayn father of Zac and Zoey.”

“Yes, yesterday Mr. Reihan has said that today there will be his friend who sent his son here.”

“Ya, right. This is my son Zac and Zoey,” replied Zayn loudly.

The middle-aged woman immediately lowered her head and extended her hand to the Zayn twins. So did the woman who stood beside Zahra.

Zac and Zoey then go after the two women.

“Wah, adorable, clever,” said Zahra as Zac and Zoey kissed the backs of the two women's hands in turn.

“Oh, yes happened to be a regular today who holds a class of fathers is permission. For today his class will be replaced by Bu Nur.” The headmaster introduced the middle-aged woman who was standing beside him.

“Oh so.” Zayn pretended to have just found out, even though he already knew this information from the owner of the foundation directly.

“For the next class Zac and Zoey will be held by Bu Rara. Maybe if tomorrow Mr. Zayn deliver his son, will meet Ms. Rara.”

Zayn smiled and nodded. “Good, mom. Thank you.”

“Yes, Sir. Equally,” replied Zahra.

“Come, Sir. I delivered to class,” said Bu Nur, the teacher who replaced Rara today.

Zayn nodded and led his two children to follow the steps of the two women.

Pt ... Pt ... Pt ...

The sound of their footsteps walking towards the classroom. The two middle-aged women stopped their steps after being in a room filled with flower decorations and pictures of cute animals.

Zayn stops his steps, making Zac and Zoey confident that their class is being served.

Zayn crouched down in front of his two children. “Daddy stay yes. You guys learned the smart one and Hmm..” Zayn locked his mouth with a motion like he was zipping that lip.

He asked his two children not to say much, because Zayn, Zac and Zoey were chatty children and often he was tired of the thousands of questions thrown at the twins.

Zac and Zoey nodded. Then they brought Bu Nur to go to class and introduce themselves to his friends there.

After delivering Zac and Zoey, Zayn bought chicken porridge which he said was quite good in front of a minimarket not far from the twin schools. He smiled as he carried chicken porridge and grocery bags at the minimarket that bought fruit, eggs and ice cream. He remembers that Rara loves ice cream, because until college, Rara still likes ice cream and that makes Zayn anxious, she said, Rara still ate the ice cream messily to all her lips.

It took only fifteen minutes, Zayn was already in the elevator to the room of Rara's apartment unit as sent Jack. He also visited this place at once to pick up Jack and leave for the office together.

Tong Ting

Zayn pressed the bell. Inside there, Rara was still with her tangtop and shorts.

“Ih, who the hell?” rara grumbled because she was still dressed sexy.

Tong Ting

The bell rang again, while Rara changed clothes with long-sleeved pajamas and long pants patterned in black and white polka-dot.

“Iya, briefly.” Rara uses a black headscarf that is not so long but still covers a little of her chest.

Chequelek

Rara opened the door and raised her head. “You.”

Rara quickly closed the door, but Zayn's feet quickly blocked the door that was about to close.

“She has forgiven me,” Zayn said.

“Yes I told you. I have forgiven you but don't expect our relationship to be the same as it used to be,” Rara replied by folding both her hands on her chest and leaving the door open.

Srek

Zayn opened the door wide and entered, then closed the door again. “Pardon that unconditionally, Ra. If you still use the condition means you have not forgiven me.”

“Who told me to come in? Out ngga!” pinta Rara was full of threats but her tone still did not indicate that she was threatening her interlocutor.

"No." Zayn smiled and shook his head.

“Ish, you yes. Basic wall face.”

Suddenly Zayn leaned his face against a wall close to himself. “Means my face is the same as this wall!”

Rara turned to look at Zayn's face which was made innocent. “Ngga funny.”

“Biarina. If it's funny, I'm a clown rather than a photographer.”

Then, Rara pursed her lips.

“Oh, yes. I brought food for you. Breakfast yes.”

Zayn placed the chicken porridge on the mini bar table and put the food he bought at the minimarket into Rara's refrigerator. Then, Zayn led Rara to sit down. “Come sit! Don't hesitate to consider this your apartment.”

Zayn shifted the chair and sat the rara there, he also opened the package of chicken porridge complete with his cutlery.

“Surely you just woke up. I know, you'd love to sleep again when it's dawn. So surely you haven't made hot chocolate.” Zayn walked into the kitchen set. “I made ya.”

Rara just propped up her chin while looking at Zayn's agility in the kitchen. Since long ago, if Rara was upset, Zayn was always behaving like this.The man would do anything to melt Rara's heart so that her mood returned to normal.

After stirring the brown powder that had already dissolved warm water in the glass, Zayn handed it to Rara. Then, he sat down in front of Rara who was feeding the chicken porridge.

“You don't eat?” ask Rara who saw Zayn just sipping coffee.

“I've had breakfast.”

“Ck, buy people food but themselves do not eat.”

“Liat you are already full,” replied Zayn smiling.

“Ish what the hell? Uncertain.”

Zayn laughs. Then his eyes wandered all over the room. And ... Yep. He caught something. Among the lines of photos that Rara posted there, it turns out there is a photo of her. Zayn got up from his seat and approached the photo.

“You still save this photo.”

Rara got up from her seat and tried to block the photo. “Ish, don't look around Zayn.”

“Wait, I want to see that photo.”

“Ngga.” Rara tries to push Zayn's body away from the table.

The photo was of Rara together with Zayn as a teenager. Not knowing why, he wanted to take the picture. The photo was in her room long ago, but when she married Reza, it was not allowed to be in her room anymore.

“So all this time you missed me too?” zayn asked with both eyes of Rara.

Rara was unable to answer Zayn's question. He could only look at those two eyeballs as well. He wanted to drive Zayn out of here, but somehow he chose silence.

A split second they looked at each other, until Rara decided that view and switched to her chair and continued her breakfast. Actually Rara was still angry at Zayn, but did not know why he could not be fierce to the man who had snatched away his honor.
