WRONG MARRIAGE

124.

“There's more you want to talk about?” arkhan asked flatly, expressionless.

“One thing only,” Faisal replied with a pushy look. His emotions are swallowed.

“Say! I don't have much time for this.”

“You married Zalfa just for the reason of covering up a mistake right? Now let go of Zalfa. I've been there for him.” Faisal spoke in a hoarse voice.

“Why don't you just tell that to Zalfa?”

“He held firm to his beliefs, and it would be difficult for him to break the laws he already knew. The only way is for you to divorce her,” Faisal said.

“No will.” Arkhan is much more assertive.

Hearing Arkhan's assertiveness, Faisal's emotions ignited. Both of his hands grabbed Arkhan's shirt collar and gripped him tightly. Seirng with Faisal's encouragement, Arkhan's body retreated stomping the body of the car. Arkhan deliberately didn't fight. He just let Faisal vent his anger. Perhaps by shedding emotions towards him, Faisal would feel more understanding of the situation.

“What do you want from Zalfa, huh?” gertak Faisal's.

“That question should be directed at you.”

“You will only make Zalfa suffer, you cannot make him happy,” exclaimed Faisal. “Zalfa's happiness is me. Where is your humanity? What good are you keeping him, huh?”

“Just ask Zalfa, she is happy or not.” Arkhan still looks calm.

Faisal's eyes twitched as if beginning to worry. “Zalfa only loves me, and you tied him up with a fake wedding.”

“False marriages are marriages that are lived without the presence of husband and wife interaction, but we are not. All worship in the husband and wife relationship we always welcome. Is this what you consider a fake marriage? Think of it!”

“What do you mean?” Faisal was worried.

“If Zalfa does not feel happy, he will not be willing to live a real household. But the truth is that she still does her duty as a wife, you know what I mean, right?” Arkhan looked at Faisal's watery eyes. He then removed Faisal's arm from his shirt collar. Then he got into the car leaving Faisal who was screaming loudly to let go of the disappointment.

Zalfa stared at the wall clock in the cafe. It's late and the employees have all gone home. He grabbed a cell phone to ask Arkhan to pick up. But somehow she still felt reluctant to interact with her husband. Zalfa smiled faintly given Arkhan's tenderness each time he approached her. Zalfa did not think out, Arkhan figure who seemed fierce and firm, was always gentle with women.

Zalfa pulled her lips when she realized she had been smiling herself ever since. He then pressed Arkhan's name on his cell phone contact after accumulating guts.

Shortly thereafter Arkhan replied across the. “Halo!”

“Fetch me,” Og Zalfa.

“OK,” replied Arkhan.

Connection disconnected.

Zalfa rushed out of the cafe and locked the door. He hoped that Arkhan would not have to wait for him to pack when the ria came later.

“Hah?” Zalfa was shocked as he turned around and saw Arkhan already standing before him. “You're here?”

“Hm. I was not far from here when you called me,” Arkhan replied.

“Ooh..”.

“Come!” Arkhan stepped towards his parked car on the side of the road and Zalfa followed.

“What do you do these nights around here?” ask Zalfa when he's sitting in the car.

Arkhan drives a car. “Continue passing.”
