Actually, I'm His Wife
Chapter 10 Is that what you hate?

Ayana was still sitting relaxed by dangling her feet into the pool. He was so excited to read his favorite novel, that he did not hear any footsteps leading towards it. Even the sound of footsteps was getting closer.

Bbuuurr...

Ayana slumped into the pool. He was shocked to lose control and forgot how to swim. Slowly Ayana was drowning. Only occasionally did his head lift out of the water. He slipped into the swimming pool which had a depth of approximately two meters.

The culprit who pushed her was her own husband, Farraz Ehsan. She was laughing gleefully at this moment, as she felt that she had managed to take revenge for her fear and shock at Ayana a few minutes ago and also because, Ayana caused her to be the second one to both her parents. Ayana had no idea about all that. After all, Ayana is happy to spend all her time near the water, such as rainwater, beach water, rivers, lakes and also swimming pool water.

"Haha, rasain. Not taking a shower, right? Nice dong shower in the morning." Farraz shouted as he continued to laugh at Ayana who was about to drown.

"Master, pity mistress. Looks like madam can't swim." Pekik Hadijah was worried.

Hearing Hadijah's cry and Farraz's laughter, Mamat immediately ran towards the pool.

"Yes Allah. That Madam almost drowned, sir." Pekik.

"Mat, you help Madam, speed!" Shouted Hadijah suggested.

"I can't swim, Jah." Said Worried.

"Master, it seems like Madam can't swim." Mamat and Hadijah were almost together.

"He was just pretending. Just so you know, your mistress is a swimming athlete." Said explained.

"But sir, it seems that Madam is not pretending." Hadijah was really worried.

Farraz's happy face instantly turned red and his laughter also slowed down. He starts to worry, but still does not believe that Ayana will drown.

Mamat and Hadijah do not know how to save Ayana. So that all they do is pacing back and forth to see Ayana who really will drown.

"Sir…"

When Mamat and Hadijah were worried and confused, Farraz immediately plunged into the pool. He swam quickly to catch up to Ayana's already sinking body.

"Mat, please pull Madam's body." Hadijah.

They waited for Farraz by the poolside and were ready to pull Ayana's body out of the pool.

Farraz swam to the edge of the pool while pulling Ayana's body. His hands were tightly coiled around Ayana's waist. And when pulling Ayana's body, her wrists can feel the softness of Ayana's stomach. Apparently his hands are circular behind the mucus that protects the skin of Ayana's body. However, because in the water his face was raised until Farraz's hand touched Ayana's skin directly.

"Mdak please!" Farraz's Exhortation to Hadijah.

Mamat was also about to help to pull out Ayana's body, but her hand was directly brimmed by Farraz.

"Let Mbak be colonized only. You go get a thick blanket, or a towel to cover the Madam's body." His orders to Mamat.

"Good sir." Mamat rushed to find a towel and a blanket.

While Hadijah tried to press softly Ayana's chest so that the swallowed water can be removed.

"Let me do that." Farraz asks Hadijah to stay away from Ayana's body.

He took a deep breath, and his hand helped open Ayana's mouth. Then, he brought his mouth closer to give an artificial breath. But, before that happened, Ayana had already spewed water from her mouth.

"Mrs..." Hadijah heaved a sigh of relief because Ayana was still breathing.

While Farraz, still glued staring at the pale face of Ayana. Farraz didn't twitch, until Ayana opened her eyes.

Plaakkkp…

Ayana's palm landed on Farraz's cheek. It didn't hurt, because Ayana's punch was very weak. But it felt like Farraz's heart was hurting for no reason at the time.

"Is that how you believe in me, Mr Farraz Ehsan?" Ayana asked while gritting her teeth.

"Did I approve of this marriage, huh?" Ayana started screaming.

Farraz was silent. He felt guilty and was too much. But, her mouth was too heavy to say sorry to Ayana.

"If you don't want me to be here, please just kick me out. Please, don't torture me like this. It hurts." Said Ayana who started sobbing.

Hadijah. He doesn't know what to do. Fortunately, Mamat came with a thick towel. Soon Hadijah took over the towel from Mamat's hand and immediately wrapped it in Ayana's body.

"Good mistress."

Hadijah helped Ayana step towards her room upstairs.

"Sir, here's the towel." Doubtfully, Mamat gave Farraz the other towel.

"Go meet mbak Dijah. Ask Mrs Ayana. If necessary, take it to the hospital."

Farraz said that as he stepped towards the guest room that was downstairs. He also took a shower there.

While Ayana, upon arrival in the room directly to the bathroom. He also took a shower and changed his clothes.

"Mrs, do we need to go to the hospital?" Ask Hadijah who had been waiting outside her room.

"Not necessary, ma'am. I'm fine." Ayana from the room.

He looked at his face in the mirror. Then, Ayana drew and exhaled slowly three times. He always does it to stabilize the pain, emotions, sadness and anger that overflows in him.

"Calm Ayana. This is just the beginning. It's just the first day. Patience, it's the key to survival." Say it to himself.

Then, he immediately put on his work clothes. He's ready to go back to the office. He worked as a secretary for Farraz Ehsan.

"In the office, he's the boss. Act as usual, as a good secretary." Monologue before leaving for work.

Meanwhile, Farraz had just arrived upstairs, after finishing his bath.

"Is Lady Ayana okay?" Farraz asked Hadijah who was still standing in front of Ayana's bedroom door.

"Looks like Madam's fine, sir." Sahut Hadija's.

"Stay watch over Madam. If he's sick, take him to the hospital." His order.

At that very instant, Ayana opened the door of her room. Farraz was silent to see the appearance of Ayana who was ready to leave for the office.

"I'm sorry, I have to ask." Ayana's eyes looked at Farraz's confused face.

"Do I need to say goodbye to you as a husband? Or is it not necessary, because you hate this marriage so much?" Continue Ayana.

He said all that right in front of Hadijah. He also asked in a firm voice and continued to stare at Farraz's face which was also staring at him.

A few seconds, Ayana waited for an answer. But, there is no answer at all. So Ayana made her own decision.

"Well, if you can't answer, then I'll decide for myself." Stepping closer to Farraz.

"This old woman is doing her job first, husband sir." Ayana said firmly. Then, he grabbed Farraz's hand and kissed the back of it.

Hadijah smiled at the husband and wife scene. On one side of the scene was sad, but on the other side somehow the scene felt romantic and funny in his opinion.

And Farraz was silent and seemed to hold his breath. He forgot how to breathe.

"Mbak, I'm saying goodbye. Assalamualaikum." Said Ayana who finally stepped down the stairs.

"Heart of the Madam!" Sejah waved his hand in Ayana's footsteps after answering his greetings.

Farraz remained silent. She did not expect, Ayana could be that cute and pretended to forget the incident that a moment ago made her face pale.

"Sir..." Hadijah touched Farraz's shoulder.

Farraz. But still holding his breath until his face looks red.

"Breathe." Hadijah helped remind her to breathe again.

Without protest, Farraz followed Hadijah's advice.

Seeing that, Hadijah smiled happily. Then, at a quick pace he left Farraz.

Realizing he was being ruled by his maid, Farraz grunted angrily. But, what can be done, hadijah is no longer nearby.
