Zara stared gently at her two sons who were sunbathing in the balcony area of her room. The babies look cute and adorable with special glasses perched on their pair of clear eyeballs.
Erich and Ernest grew rapidly, until their small bodies now looked plump, plus a dense mane of jet black that made the face of the little boy was very handsome who dominated the genes of the father.
Zara rubbed the red cheeks of her son who was asleep under the exposure of the sun that felt warm. This kind of activity was a routine agenda for Zara, where she would sunbathe with her two sons just before Arka left for the office.
I didn't think I'd have both of them. Cute babies, caring husbands, all the facilities I need. Everything still feels like a dream.
Breath sounds heard. Although he felt happy, but from a small heart, Zara was not entirely happy.
Surti came with a tray in hand. Bring a cup of warm tea and also a snack.
"Please, miss." Bi Sumi landed the tray on a table. Bending for a moment, and was about to leave the lady.
"Bi, come. Keep me talking and don't go."
Zara's words that sounded serious, made Sumi who was about to walk, turn around.
"What's up, miss?" Surti approached, while his gaze was fixed on Zara sitting between her two babies.
Zara looked at Surti fixedly, and invited him to sit down.
"Bi, honestly. In my life like this, I'm still often overwhelmed with feelings of guilt." Zara bowed, for some reason her heart felt like it was torn to shreds.
Surti himself apparently still does not understand his non-speech.
"I mean miss?"
"I'm still thinking about Anastasya. I shouldn't have replaced her position in this house."
"What do you mean, miss? It's not good to say that." Surti is not accepting. Despite the circumstances, Zara is the girl of the master's choice, and until then no one can change that.
"Auntie," said Zara. "I'm like a woman who doesn't know. Messing things up until Anastasya's sister disappears without a trace."
"Miss, I beg you to stop saying things that could incite your anger if you accidentally hear them. After all, miss Anastasya is also living happily at the moment." But after saying so, Surti quickly pursed his lips. Moreover, both of Zara's netra seemed to narrow, as if harboring suspicion towards her.
"How can aunty know if Anastasya's sister is living well? Did aunt keep anything from me?"
The middle-aged woman started to get nervous and excited. Didn't know he was lost.
"Auntie, let's say." During this one year Anastasya chose to disappear and cut off contact. No one knows where he is today, including Surti. But if you look at Surti's words, it is not impossible if the middle-aged woman keeps something that is not known by Zara and Arka.
"Sorry, miss."
"Sorry for what aunt?"
For a moment Surti was silent. The middle-aged woman did not answer.
"Auntie" said Zara Lirih.
"I used to trade a lot with Miss Anastasya."
Zara was aghast. Why didn't Surti tell her.
"Why didn't aunt tell me? Didn't auntie ever tell you that she didn't have any contact with Anastasya's sister who could be contacted by me?" Zara started shaking both of Surti's shoulders.
Surti. He feels guilty.
"Sorry, miss. I used to still have Miss Anastasya's mobile number to call, but..." Surti hung his words.
"But what's bi?"
The middle-aged woman fell down.
"But the contact number can no longer be reached."
Zara breathed a heavy sigh. Surti starts lying to her.
"Auntie, I just want to know how Anastasya is doing right now. I don't want to ruin his happiness either. Didn't aunt trust me to try to cover up something she knew." Zara wailed pity. At any moment he would still feel guilty for Anastasya. If only Anastasya did not refuse all the facilities provided by Arka, of course, the guilt would not be this big.
"Miss, it's not like that." Surti confuses stringing words. Zara is bowing in.
"Miss Anastasya's contact is completely unreachable, miss. I'm not lying at all. We used to exchange news a lot, but for some reason during these few months, Miss Anastasya no longer gave any news. When I tried to call his phone, it always couldn't connect."
Surti's words, instantly made Zara frown.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Surti spontaneously nodded.
"Right Miss, I swear."
Zara swallowed her saliva heavily. It really shouldn't corner a middle-aged woman who means so much to her husband's life.
"Auntie, sorry. I didn't mean to doubt auntie, it's just..."
Surti rubbed Zara's hands gently. The middle-aged woman seemed to understand, with the contents of her nona head.
"But what is bi for?"
"Miss Anastasya's color thought, if his existence remains known, then forever it will continue to depend on Mr. Arka. And Miss Anastasya doesn't want that to happen."
Zara gave a faint chuckle, shaking her head. He never thought about what Anastasya did.
The woman left with lara. She married another girl, just to make her husband happy. But what about his heart?
"Bi, didn't Anastasya have no family in the city until Mr. Arka tried to provide protection and a decent life for Anastasya in the future."
"But Miss Anastasya doesn't want it, miss."
Surti began to tell a long story about the new life lived by his ex-con. Starting from buying a house in a simple complex, to working in a restaurant as a waiter.
Zara felt more guilty until the clear circle dripped from her neutral angle. At the same time, Arka who had just taken a bath with only a towel wrapped around her waist, appeared from the door to surprise the two women who were talking.
Zara quickly wiped away the remaining tears, and Surti spontaneously locked her mouth.
Arka also approached Zara. Surti who understood the situation, instantly disappeared from the balcony area after bowing his head.
"Honey, I want to work" said Arka who had grabbed Zara's body from behind. Kiss the nape of the girl and sprinkle a lot of kisses there.
"Yes dear. Wait a minute, I'll move the twins inside and then prepare all your needs."
Zara took Ernest in a sling, while Arka carried Erich the eldest into the house.
Zara rushed to prepare all the needs of Arka before going to the office. The burly body of the handsome man who was still wrapped in a towel was still standing sculpting. Waiting for the touch of the hand of the wife who takes care of him every day.
The black shirt began to fit on his body. Arka smiled gently looking at Zara's beautiful face. But this morning, the face of the woman he loved was not as happy as usual day. For some reason, it was like there was a thin mist enveloping him.
"Darling, what's wrong?" Arka glanced at the two babies who occasionally blabbed on the bed. The babies looked healthy and well. But why the face of the wife does not reflect if she is okay.
Zara gasps. She tried to focus on handling her husband, and expel all thoughts so that the man did not suspect.
"Hem, there's no. I'm fine" replied Zara.
Zara paired her husband's dark suit as the final touch.
Arka who momentarily knitted the eyebrows, now actually smiled obliquely.
"I know. You're acting like this because you miss me, aren't you? You must want me to always be close to you." Arka laughed loudly, and scooped the wife's body in a sling, which made Zara flutter.
"I realize, baby. Lately my work has been so much that I don't have much time to spend with you." Arka lowered his wife's body slowly onto the bed. Eroding the distance, until the lips of the two clashed for a moment.
Zara breathed a sigh of relief in silence. Apparently, Arka was unable to guess his heart and instead felt guilty about the lack of time he had for his son and his wife.
"Darling, stop. Don't you want to go to work?" Zara covered Arka's lips with her palm. Trying to stop activities that can make it crazy.
The man chuckled.
"What are you thinking." Placed. One jolt landed on his wife's forehead, until the woman spontaneously stirred.
"Oh."
"Do you think we'll do it in front of them?" Arka's gaze was directed at two small boys who still occasionally blabbed on the bed. The man even smiled slantedly with a seductive look.
Zara. His face was red instantly. I don't know why he was so embarrassed.
"Nope-no. Mom-that's not what I mean," elak Zara.
Arka just laughed.
"I know what you mean, baby." Arka started talking seriously. He saw the face of the wife attached, with both hands cupping his wife's cheeks.
"I'll be home early to spend time with you. I promise." One kiss on the lips back at the Arka. The man was really unable to hold it.
"Dress beautiful and wait for me to come home." After saying that, Arka rubbed his wife's lips slightly swollen with her thumb.
Zara could only nod shyly in response.
"Jaga yourself. Going to leave," said Arka before leaving the wife who is still in her place.
I know that you love me so much, our children too. But I will still look for the whereabouts of Anastasya, even by stealth.
Seriate..
