A Little Hope For Ashma
58. Asking to wait

Ashma's condition has improved after two weeks of post-human treatment from her coma. She has also been allowed to go home today, Ashma will continue to do regular checks to monitor her health.

“Let me help sus.” Said to the nurse, Lily carrying Ashma's body to sit in a wheelchair, although she was able to walk as usual again, Ashma still had to follow the doctor's advice considering she was pregnant.

Adam came from the doorway, he had already finished his wife's administration. The man did not say much after their quarrel one week ago, Adam chose to stay away temporarily from him because he did not want Ashma to hate him more and feared that his recovery would be hampered because of him.

But Adam never forgot to give little attention to Ashma he was always there for his wife when he needed something even though the response was still cold and taut, Adam still tried.

Before going to the doctor Alicia gives flowers to Ashma as a form of memento to her patients. Not only that some nurses also gave a parting gift to Ashma.

Adam looked at the radiant face of his wife, Adam wanted to see that happy face every day. When she awoke from her sleep, Ashma's face was the first one she saw.

“Sister-in-law are you ready to breathe outside air?” lily asked so enthusiastically, Ashma nodded with a small smile.

Lily pushes Ashma's wheelchair while Adam brings her supplies and needs to the hospital.

They finally arrived in front of the parking area to ride the car, Adam after putting the goods into the trunk immediately helped his wife to get into the car. At first Ashma was reluctant but saw the persistence of the man inevitably Ashma got into the car assisted by him, although in fact he could be alone but Ashma did not want to engage in conversation let alone quarrel with Adam.

Ashma and Lily sit in the back while Adam is driving, the car moves away from the hospital area.

During the journey to the Mansion there was not a word that came out of Adam's mouth, he only heard most of Lily's chatter and occasionally in response by Ashma.

Adam was not worried, he was even happy because he could see Ashma smiling in the middle of a joke in the form of a joke from Lily.

Adam has really moved on with his past, now he wants to look to the future with his wife, Ashma Zehra and their future son.

“What are you imagining, brother?” ask Lily with frills ‘kakak’ on Adam he deliberately because he wants Ashma not to think that Adam still has feelings for him.

Adam is aware of his reverie, “what?” she asked back because she did not hear what Lily said.

“What kind of imaginary sister to smile herself?”

Adam raised his eyebrows strangely, suddenly Lily became polite when calling him, ah Adam realized it might be Lily's effort to not make Ashma think Adam still harbors feelings for his own sister.

“Tourism of the future.” He said as he looked at Ashma behind the windshield. The look they see each other.

“Hah?”

Ashma who understood Adam's words took a quick glance at him and immediately threw her gaze out the window again.

“Hmm like that.” Lily began to understand then she smiled slightly.

After the silence returned to them, Lily was busy with her phone while Ashma preferred to look out the window.

Thinking of herself and her son might live happier than now after her separation, Ashma looked forward to the day.

Adam had no idea what his wife was thinking to the point that the woman was smiling faintly staring out the window, he hoped that it would be something good.

After traveling approximately twenty minutes finally their car arrived at the court of the magnificent Mansion owned by Adam. The man looked back and found his wife asleep, he immediately went down and opened the door for Ashma, Lily was out first while Adam carefully carried the body of his wife ala bridal style, he did not want Ashma disturbed his sleep let alone find the woman was in a cradle by him could-can he rampage.

Adam felt the weight of Ashma's body is getting heavier but he is still able to lift his body, for him Ashma's body is still very light even though she is pregnant and her body weight is increasing more.

“Honey his wife, don't be made to snack!” lily was sitting on the sofa. Adam ignored his words, this was the first time he was so unwilling to respond to Lily's words.

Aunt Marianne went down the stairs one by one, she was so happy that her daughter-in-law and her son were coming home. Marianne's aunt wanted to surprise Ashma but she felt it was unnecessary because her aunt wanted to give Ashma a more meaningful gift.

Seeing her daughter-in-law who fell asleep comfortably in Adam's arms made Aunt Marianee's smile even more.

“Alhamdullilah you have arrived,”

“Iya ma.” Answer lily.

“Ma Adam wants to lay Ashma in her room,” said Adam asked for permission, aunt Marianee of course nodded.

“You should take good care of Adam, don't neglect it anymore!” aunt Marianne said her son's warning.

“Sure Ma.”

Adam climbed the steps one by one very carefully until he finally climbed the last steps, Adam immediately walked to their room.

He put Ashma's body so carefully on the bed, he sat beside Ashma while watching her beautiful face.

Adam stroked that slightly thin cheek, he never got tired of looking at Ashma's face like it had become an opium thing for him.

“Now I understand your feelings at that time Ashma, it turned out to be very painful yes,” murmured Adam with a lethargic tone of voice then he approached his wife's face to kiss Ashma's forehead.

...•••...

Adam sighed in anger at getting the job of his superior to investigate the case of the death of a judge at his service home, considering this case is very important because it is still a liaison with the crime committed by Daxter, who is still involved in the crime, the mafia he's hunting so, Adam still has to carry out his duties.

But on the other hand Adam was very confused because it means he had to leave his wife again let alone the mileage for this task to be in another country. It was likely that he would leave Ashma for one week and it was very hard for his heart to go considering their relationship was now tenuous and not okay.

But Adam still has to be professional so tonight he will go to duty, before that Adam must try to convince Ashma first, Adam needs trust from him.

He went to his wife's room to talk to her, he had prepared himself when Ashma refused him, Adam did not care.

His hands stretched out to grab the door handle and pushed him slowly so as not to disturb his wife inside.

Ashma turned to the door and found Adam standing on the sidewalk with his eyes on him.

He approached Ashma who was sitting on the sofa, Adam was sitting next to him but Ashma pulled over widened their distance.

Adam smiled faintly, he didn't matter if Ashma felt disgusted at him.

"I don't want to fight with you Ashma, so please just listen" she said in a calm manner.

"Tonight I have to go on duty so I beg you will you wait for me?" Adam asked Ashma in a soft voice.

Ashma certainly did not answer Adam because every time he wanted to answer, Ashma always carried emotions.

Adam let out a long sigh, he finally frustratedly faced his silent Ashma.

"When will you inhabit me sweetheart?"

Adam docked his body with Ashma, he immediately wrapped around his waist so that the woman did not go anywhere, Ashma of course revolted.

"Silence sweetie. I miss my son, so you have no right to break away from me!" His words right in Ashma's ear, Adam's voice sweep made him so creepy.

Adam rubbed his stomach gently he also leaned his body to kiss his wife's big belly.

"Look Daddy's calm in your Mommy's stomach yeah, don't moan. We'll meet in a few months, my dear." Adam kissed Ashma again for so long as he would miss his son because of their separation.

"Eh?"

Suddenly Adam felt a movement in his wife's stomach, he put his ears to hear her son's response there. Adam smiled a happy smile because he could hear the noise in his wife's stomach.

"Shhh..." Ashma grimaced slightly, Adam immediately raised his head to look at Ashma who was holding the ring.

"Why baby?" adam's face turned anxious.

"E-no, just surprised because he kicked." his great-grandson replied, Adam smiled faintly at the end his wife responded.

Ashma was actually filled to see the interaction between the father and his future son, however in his stomach there was the blood of Adam's flesh so he would not be cruel it would not give him permission to greet their future baby.

Adam again aligned himself with Ashma without taking off his hand which was still wrapped around his waist.

"As you've always wanted, I'll be home soon after my job is done" Adam looked at Ashma's face, which he'll miss for days to come.

Ashma scrunched her forehead, "that was then, now I don't care if you want to go back with a long period of time or maybe up to months." Ashma still spoke sensi to Adam making the man have to be extra patient to face this creature called 'woman.

"I'll be back as soon as possible."

Adam immediately grabbed his wife's face with his other hand and regardless of Ashma's fierce face he immediately kissed her lips gently.

Ashma tries to push Adam's body but his strength is not enough to make himself move away from the one Adam is even more aggressively passing every inch in his mouth.

However, Adam let go of their pagutan after successfully making Ashma overwhelmed until his breath was wheezing.

Adam smiled complacently, "I have to hold back again dear."

Ashma looked at him sharply and unsheathed and then he moved from his seat after Ashma managed to push Adam's body.

"Malgoshen!"

Ashma leaves her room feeling cocky, so Adam steals the chance to kiss her lips. She thought Ashma would falter with her flirtation, certainly not because Ashma really did not want her attention and love anymore, she could now only hate him.
