CHAPTER 24

After the reception, Kendra's parents immediately returned to Yogyakarta, while Kendra took Amanda to her apartment. Never imagined before by Kendra, he had to occupy the dwelling of his dreams with Amanda, even though he always dreamed of occupying it with Fay.

Kendra's hopes were dashed, when this afternoon she read the message sent by Icha, who asked her not to bother her brother anymore. Kendra opened the entrance to her apartment, then gave the access card along with her pin to Amanda. "Hold me, so you can get out," she felt she didn't have to take Amanda around because when she asked Fay to buy the apartment, Amanda went with her.

Kendra walked straight into a room. "The new housekeeping assistant will be there tomorrow afternoon, he will tidy up this apartment, wash clothes and cook for you" Kendra said as she opened the room door. "This is your room, my room I'm next door," he pointed to a room that was right next to the room he had prepared for Amanda.

Amanda furrowed her eyebrows, she was surprised by what Kendra said. "Are we not one room?" ask Amanda.

Kendra just shook her head. "You just knock if there's anything," she goes to her room, but Amanda grabs Kendra's hand, preventing her from leaving. "But we are legal as husband and wife."

Kendra let go of Amanda's hand. "I'm sorry I still need time alone" Kendra said, walking back to her room leaving Amanda still standing in the doorway.

Seeing the door of Kendra's room in the key, Amanda went into her room with a disappointed face, but previously she had imagined would enjoy a beautiful wedding night with Kendra.

As if not broken charcoal, the next morning Amanda woke up early, she prepared breakfast for Kendra and wanted to talk about planning their honeymoon that had not been talked about. "Morning Husband," said Amanda when she saw Kendra coming out of her room, she was a little wondering to see Kendra who looked neat. "Dear breakfast, I made you fried rice."

Kendra walked over to Amanda who was seen busy at the dinner table. "I've started to enter the office" Kendra said as she looked at the food Amanda had prepared at the dinner table. "You don't have to bother preparing food or anything for me, I can take care of myself." he turned around and walked out of his apartment. It still feels too much for Kendra to accept Amanda as her wife.

Not yet Kendra closed the apartment door, Amanda was chasing Kendra. "This is breakfast.." Amanda smiled as she handed a paper bag containing her homemade fried rice and some fresh fruit for her husband.

Kendra was still silent and reluctant to accept Amanda's paper bag, until Amanda grabbed Kendra's left hand to receive her homemade breakfast and then grabbed Kendra's right hand, then kissed her. "Passion yes dear," she gave a sweet kiss on her husband's cheek.

Kendra was still unmoved, then she walked out of her apartment.

Upon arrival at Kendra's office give Amanda's breakfast to Angga. "Make it loe!"

Angga raised his eyebrows, while watching Kendra who was standing before him. "Loe's back in Jakarta?" tanya was surprised, Kendra should be asking for a week off. "Aren't you just getting married? How did you get to work?"

Kendra sighed heavily, she just remembered if she had not revised the leave she proposed. Kendra initially applied for a week's leave, because she wanted to enjoy her honeymoon with Fay, but because of the cancellation of her marriage with Fay, she was not married, Kendra only takes one day off for marriage contracts and simple receptions.

In addition to changing his leave schedule, he also canceled the dinner with his office friends who he had originally specialized to introduce Fay to all his friends and at the same time thanks for his marriage. But now Kendra feels there is nothing she needs to celebrate.

Just by looking at Kendra's gloomy and lackluster face, Angga did not in the morning ask anything about Kendra's marriage, he took a stack of files from his desk drawer. "This is the analysis of this month's report, at 10 you will meet with Mr. William."

Kendra nodded and accepted the pile of files Angga had given her. "Thank you, Ngga" he returned to his room.

That day Kendra worked until late at night, she preferred to linger in her office, rather than having to go home and meet with Amanda. "Just seven months until Amanda gives birth, I can definitely get through this" Kendra murmured, she let out a long sigh, while tidying up her desk, and then she returned home.

At 23:00 Kendra arrived at her apartment, she was greeted by Amanda with a face full of worry. "Where are you from?" tanyakanya. "I've been calling Ken, but I'm not being picked up, I'm afraid of why."

"I'm fine," he answered flatly. "Don't you know if I'm in the office?" Kendra refused as Amanda was about to bring her briefcase, so she continued to walk to her room. "Next time you don't have to wait for me to come home."

Amanda nodded, as she followed Kendra from behind. "Mas, want to eat first or want to take a shower, I'm ready for the warm water."

Kendra turned to Amanda. "I told you you don't have to prepare anything for me, I can take care of myself, you take care of yourself!!" he said firmly.

" But Ken..."

"Amanda, all this time I've been patient enough to obey all your will and your parents. So please, this time really want to be alone." Kendra walked back to her room.

At 01:00 in the morning, Amanda sneaked into Kendra's room, took off all her clothes and lay hugging Kendra. "I'm sure sooner or later you'll be mine" Amanda whispered.

💡Second Info

Imam Shafi’i argues that marriage due to pregnancy outside marriage is legal, marriage can take place when a woman is pregnant. Whether the marriage is done with a man who impregnates him or with a man who does not impregnate him. Imam Syafi’i's argument about the ability of marriage is because the woman is not among the class of women who are illegal to marry. A baby born out of wedlock returns to him.
