A Thousand Flowers
Chaptre 66. Undecided

Standing by the side of the medics dugout door, Shin Seo Hyun looked uneasily glancing at the clock on her wrist repeatedly. A sigh of disappointment slid from his lips whenever the person who came out of that space was not Izzah.

Since the last ten minutes, no one has left that space. Shin Seo Hyun's forehead was also wrinkled.

“What is the girl directly overtime on her first day of work after sick leave?” his inner.

He hesitated, near the door and laid his head. Blank. There's no one there. Making Shin Seo Hyun's forehead more tangled.

“Who to look for, Director Shin?” asked a man dressed as a doctor, startling Shin Seo Hyun.

“Oh ... it ... Doctor Izzah is still busy huh?” shin Seo Hyun said a little nervous. Feeling ashamed of being caught by one of his employees.

“Doctor Izzah has come home from earlier, Sir,” replied the doctor, further making Shin Seo Hyun shocked. But, trying to hide it.

“Really?” shin Seo Hyun said in disbelief.

“Iya, Sir. He said his head was a little dizzy,” said the doctor, explaining the reason for Izzah's return earlier than scheduled.

“Oh ... Is that so? Alright. Thank ye. Excuse me!” shin Seo Hyun said as she left the place in a hurry.

The doctor tilted his head and looked suspiciously at Shin Seo Hyun's hasty departure, then put his shoulders down and passed down the hospital hallway. Don't care about any of it.

In the parking lot, Shin Seo Hyun opened the door of his car quickly and slammed the briefcase into the seat beside the driver's seat, then ripped his butt behind the wheel. A second later, he left the parking lot and drove his car at high speed.

Upon arriving home, Shin Seo Hyun rushed out of the car, ran into the house and directly climbed the stairs to Izzah's room. His anxiety about Izzah's condition has made him forget the fatigue that afflicted him after a tired day of work.

As soon as Izzah got to the front of the room, Shin Seo Hyun immediately grabbed the door handle and pushed it hard. He almost fell. Ducking down with his right hand held on to the door handle and his left hand propped up on his knees, Shin Seo Hyun adjusted his wheezing breath. His eyes stared at the bed without blinking. Then, he sat down leaning against the door leaf when he could not find Izzah there.

A moment later, he gasped up and ran into the library. Again he swallowed a bitter pill because there was no Izzah there.

With breath still hunting and sweat pouring down his clothes, Shin Seo Hyun came back down and stood by as he drove his car towards Izzah's house.

Arriving there, Shin Seo Hyun stood glued to the lip of the stairs as she watched the girl who had made him run up in the fog sit on her knees with a blank look.

On the large table on the porch of his house, Izzah sat pensively without passion. Unheeded gust of wind that ravages the order of her hijab. Unhurried the increasingly cold weather pierced all his joints. Only his mother's words kept ringing in his ears.

That day, Izzah was thrilled to receive a phone call from his mother at lunchtime. However, after pleasantries and asking for news, Izzah's world seemed to be turned upside down. His mother's words were like thunderbolts in broad daylight.

“Zah, your age is now over twenty-one years old. It means that they are old enough to build a home. And Mommy is already worthy enough to pet a grandson ..” Rahmi said across the phone directly to the subject.

“Means, Mother?” Izzah asked, pretending not to understand.

“I mean, Mommy .. It's time for you to get married,” replied Rahmi gently, but firmly.

“Married, Mother? But ...” Izzah's speech came to a halt, cut off his bundle from across.

“Mother already received someone's proposal, son. He is a good and responsible man. Your brother also agrees,” Rahmi continued.

The sky in Izzah's originally blue heart suddenly turned gray. Izzah just kept quiet.

Izzah sighed fretfully. On the one hand, she does not want to disappoint her mother because she believes a mother must always want the best for her children.  After all, isn't heaven under your feet? But on the other hand, his soul is really not ready to undergo a marriage.

After a long period of silence, Izzah finally reopened his voice.

“Give Izzah two weeks to think, Mother!” sahut Izzah lethargic.

“Two weeks is too long, son. Mother had asked for a month before deciding to accept the man's proposal. Now there are only three days left,” replied Rahmi, making Izzah sigh disappointed.

“Hah? Three days?” izzah's heart screamed.

“Alright, Mother. Izzah will follow the will, Mother,” said Izzah resigned. He could still hear the echoes of gratitude echoing just before the phone closed.

Meanwhile, at Izzah's house, Fadhil floated a happy smile to his mother. Then, he turned off his phone that was located on the table. The phone had become a liaison medium between the groom's family and Izzah when the loudspeaker of his mother's phone was activated.

At the same time, in a luxurious house, a couple and an old woman breathed a sigh of relief at Izzah's reply.

Izzah sighed furiously, then hid his face behind his knees. Many times Izzah thought hard, trying to find a way to cancel the match. However, the shadow of a smile on his mother's face, made Izzah not bear. He does not want to be a bad boy. The child who came to the heart humiliates the noble woman

she has fought hard to give birth and raise her alone without her husband.

Huuuuh .. haaaaah .…

Izzah took a deep, deep breath. Then, he threw himself on the table. At the same time, Shin Seo Hyun who had started to calm down knew that she was sitting next to Izzah. Makes the girl aghast.

“Stay lying down if it makes you calm!” prevent Shin Seo Hyun from seeing that Izzah is about to get up.

“Since when was Mr Shin here?” izzah asked as she walked towards the guardrail regardless of what Shin Seo Hyun said. I don't know why he suddenly felt sultry near Shin Seo Hyun.

Shin Seo Hyun got off the table and opened her suit. He put the suit on Izzah's shoulder. A moment later, he stood beside Izzah. Staring at the starless dark night.

“It looks like you're in trouble,” Shin Seo Hyun said after a moment of silence.

“I'm just a little dizzy. Sorry if I came home early without telling you,” said Izzah felt guilty. His eyes did not even slightly shift from staring at the street lights below him.

“Then, why don't you rest in your room, but instead come here?” chase after Shin Seo Hyun, trying to provoke Izzah's openness.

Izzah didn't say. He doesn't know what to say.

DEG! DEG!

His chest suddenly rumbled as he glanced at Shin Seo Hyun and the man was stunned to look at him with one-handed support on the fence, while his left hand hid in his pants pocket.

Izzah quickly turned his face away. Upturned. Stare at one or two stars who begin to peek shyly from behind the mega.
