Thorny Love

*Bab 74

After Zia's parents finished giving the blessing to Zein and Zia as brides today, it is now the turn of mama and papa Zein who will give the blessing to Zein and Zia.

"Dear Zia, mama put Zein on you, son. Please take care of her just like my mom took care of her. Prepare all the needs he needs at home. Become a confiding friend if he is feeling upset. Be a booster if he is tired. Mama trusted you with all that, Zia. I'm sure you can replace your job to be next to Zein forever" mama Zein told Zia.

"I can't promise to fulfill everything you say. But, I will try to do all that with all my heart, as hard as I can, and as much as I can."

"Mama's convinced that you can do your job better than you did for Zein. Mama believes in the ability you have, son," said mama Zein as she gently held Zia's cheek, then pulled Zia into her arms.

"Mama's job has now been mama's move into your hands Zia. Be the best wife for your child" said mama Zein again as she continued to hug Zia with a cry that she could not bear.

"Zein, you're papa's proud son. Now you are a husband. Your job is to take good care of your wife and always make your wife happy. Be your family as well as possible. The best prayer is always for both of you" said Papa Zein, patting his son's shoulders gently.

"Thank you very much, Pa for everything. Zein will always remember papa's message," Zein said as she burst into his arms.

After the event was over, for the first time, Zein entered Zia's room. The bridal room belonged to both of them.

There was no one else in the room but the two of them. Zia looked timidly as Zein followed her into the room a moment ago.

Although before, he had already gone through this with Rama when they first got married. However, still, Zia felt embarrassed when she was with Zein.

"Zi-Zia .. This is your room, I mean, our room?" zein asked with a very nervous feeling.

"Yes. This is our room."

"Good room," said Zein just warm the atmosphere that felt so cold.

"Yes .. It's me who set it up." Zia said honestly.

"Wuah, it deserves this room to look very beautiful. It turns out you're the one who's decorating it."

"Bec .... " Zia had not yet finished her words, the sound of the incoming call distracted the two of them.

Zia instantly looked at her phone screen. There is the name of Restu who is calling through WA. Vidio call that immediately Zia lift.

"Resident." Zia immediately called Restu after he answered the vidio call via WA.

"Mbak Zia's. Very pretty today. Honey, I can't see Zia's mother directly," said Restu speaking in a sad tone as he looked at Zia's face on his phone screen.

"I'm sorry, ma'am. I wasn't next to Zia when Zia went through this happy day" Restu said.

"Restu, I should be the one apologizing to you. Because of the task that you can give, you can not be present on his happy day mbak," said Zia with regret.

"It's all because of Zein," Zia said again.

"Yes because you want to get married quickly, so I can not pull my words to Restu. The task I gave her, I couldn't pull back because she couldn't possibly leave it," Zia said instead arguing with Zein.

"It's not my fault dong."

"Then, whose fault is it?"

"It was wrong Restu. Why is he so obedient to what you command. If I were Restu, I would have gone home without having to finish all my work you assigned."

"Oh my God .. Why am I even blamed Mr Zein?" tanya Restu did not accept. Because since then, he had only been silent while smiling while listening to Zein and Zia's warm debate.

"Yes .. I can't possibly blame the queen's kanjeng. You have to understand well," Zein said half-whispering to Zein who was in the distance.

"OK-okay, okay. I understand Mr. Zein. I'll try to understand it even if it's really hard."

"Yes .."." said Zia while pulling Zein so as not to block her view.

"Hm ... Restu, when are you coming home?" tanya Zia changed the conversation.

"Maybe the day after. What was? Zia miss me huh?" restu said trying to provoke Zein's jealousy.

"Restu, I'm sure you forgot that her husband was here. You seem to be very happy abroad. I will make sure, you will forever not return to the homeland if you like to fish for fire with dry leaves," said Zein feigned annoyance.

"I was just kidding, Mr. Zein. Don't take it for granted" said Restu, smiling amusedly.

"Rest! Restu! Are you in Restu!"

It was heard very clearly the voice of a girl who was outside the hotel room of Restu. Quickly, Restu answered the call.

"Yes Sintya. Wait a minute" said Restu while getting up from his seat. He left his laptop there. Without saying goodbye to Zia and Zein.

Looking at Restu who seemed to put a lot of emphasis on the woman who called him just now, Zein and Zia looked at each other. Then they both smiled.

Zein and Zia had to guess what Restu felt for the girl who called him just now. There are flower tamams in bloom now. Zein and Zia were very sure of that. Plus the chatter between Restu and the girl could Zein and Zia hear very clearly. That further corroborated their guess of who the girl was to Restu.

After a few minutes of chatting, Restu only remembered that he had left Zia without saying goodbye first.

"Oh my God .. I forgot about Zia" said Restu as he patted her on the forehead slowly.

"What ... What do you mean?" the voice sounded different than before.
