Thorny Love

*Cap 30

Zia and Rama walked towards the garden. Just then, accidentally, Laila sees Zia and Rama walking together. His heart suddenly felt upset. The feeling of anger could not be held anymore now.

However, he did not want to show his true nature to Rama. He tried to hold back so that his goal could be achieved. Laila chose to follow Rama and Zia secretly. Intentionally, he would eavesdrop on Zia and Rama's conversation.

But unfortunately, he had not been able to do that, his steps were stopped by the call of the bik Imah. Inevitably, Laila had to cancel her intention so as not to be discovered that she had lied ill to everyone.

Laila was forced to return to her room

As for Zia and Rama, they sat in the garden chairs to talk about the important things that Rama meant.

"What's up, ma'am? What do you want to talk about?".

"Zi, I know I was wrong. I want to apologize and ask for your help. I'll do what you want as long as we're willing to help me."

"helpful? What help do you need from me?"

"The company is in big trouble and is on the verge of bankruptcy. I beg for help from you Zia. Because you have a high position in the business world. I'm sure your company can help my company."

"Mas, why do you think I'll help you after what you did to me?"

"I know you won't help me easily. In exchange for that help, you can ask me to do what you want. I'll do what you ask as long as you're willing to save the company that my papa painstakingly built."

"Are you really going to do whatever I ask, Mas Rama?"

"Y-yes. I'll do as long as the request doesn't fuck up. As long as I can, then I'll fulfill."

"Well, that's why I'm asking you to leave your wife. How, can you?" tanya Ziana was just testing.

"What-what? You're asking me to leave Laila? There's no way I'm doing that because I'm ...." Rama hung up his sentence.

'Because I love you so much, Zi. If I leave Laila, then mama will report you on charges of attempted murder. The evidence of the footage you took from the neighboring cctv is very clear. So that I can not dwell to fight against the wishes of mama, ' said Rama in his heart.

'Zia, you should know who you are now. You can't expect too much more. Until when will you hope and continue to seek the crumbs of love from your husband Rama. The best thing is, you're separated. Live each other's lives, ' Zia said in her heart.

"He he he. Already, mas Rama. I was just kidding. I knew that you wouldn't leave your serial wife. Besides, I can't possibly want to be the same old me that someone else has taken."

"I have other conditions for Rama. The real condition. Which must be fulfilled if Rama mas want me to help the company of the deceased papa mas Rama."

"What condition. Tell me, then I'll qualify for it."

"Two conditions that I'm going to apply to you. After these conditions you pass right, then your company will I help."

"Yes, tell me what the conditions are!"

"First, you must divorce me."

"What! Divorce you?" rama asked in shock.

"Why are you surprised? Shouldn't we have won since yesterday?"

"But Zia, are there no other conditions?" asked Rama expectantly. He tried to find the debris of love in the midst of the ruins of Zia's heart.

"Nothing, Mom. I want us to separate because this household is not possible for us to live again. Supposedly, from yesterday we parted ways, because I could never have been in this household a third person present."

"Ba-happily. What's the second condition?" rama asked with sadness.

'I was wrong. Maybe goodbye is the best way to see you happy. I hope that one day you will come back to me. And we will start a new life, Rama said in his heart.

"Get out of this house because I don't want your serial wife to take everything I have. This house was bought in my name with my money, and most importantly, this house grandmother chose it. Therefore, I'm sorry I can't give you this house. Because what I see, your serial wife really likes this house," Zia said in a very honest talk.

"good. I'll take Laila away from here, if that's what makes you feel so happy. You take it easy, I won't let Laila take what you've got anymore."

"good. I hope you hold your word. Don't disappoint me anymore" Zia said as she got up from her seat.

Ziana left Rama who was still silent sitting down while bowed. To be honest, the pain could never be lessened even though he was already trying to avenge what Rama did to him. The pain will always be there because after all he still has a love for Rama.

'Forgive me Rama. I have to do this so that I don't constantly feel hurt when I see you with your wife. I can't see you're more concerned with him than I am. To be honest, I feel really hurt, ' Zia said as she held back tears from falling.

'Zi, I hope this is the only way you can feel happiness. Also the only way that we all do not feel hurt anymore, Rama said in his heart, staring at the departure of Zia who walked away from him.
