Actually, I'm His Wife
Chapter 31 is not mine.

This afternoon Farraz and Elsa sat on the sidelines of Santolo beach while waiting for the sun to set. Elsa resuscitates her head on Farraz's boat, and Farraz's hand tightly covers Elsa's shoulder. Occasionally Farraz kissed the top of his lover's head.

"Darling, there's actually something important I want to tell you." Her speech.

"Tell me, Raz. I'm ready to listen." The answer.

Farraz changed his sitting position. He invited Elsa to sit facing each other. He held both hands tightly, and stared at them in a bluish eyeball belonging to Elsa.

"I'll tell you the truth about one thing. And I hope, after knowing that, you have no intention of leaving me." Farraz.

Elsa's heart trembled violently upon hearing that sentence from Farraz. It seemed, he would not be able to hear Farraz's honesty about something he could not even imagine.

"Say, Raz. I don't want to promise not to leave you. But, I promise to listen to you as a good listener and not to interrupt your words. Then, after I know everything, I'll decide to stay by your side or I'll have to really leave." He tries to look calm.

"I'm sorry for disappearing that night. Because actually, that night Mama put sleeping pills into my drink and also Ayana. Mama set me up, baby." He began to tell stories.

Elsa was still silent, as she promised not to interrupt her in the least before Farraz finished telling her story. Although his heart actually began to feel sore and sick. He seemed to have guessed what the end of the story Farraz would tell him.

"That night Ayana and I woke up in my room. Ayana is no longer wearing her hijab, while I am also a mess. Back then, I cursed and bullied Ayana the seductress widow and conspired with mama to frame me. He did not accept the accusation, and instead reversed the accusation to me. That night I hated him so much and it felt like I wanted to throw him out of my life. But, that's when Mama and papa came..." Stop for a moment to look at Elsa's sad face.

"Trust me dear. That night nothing happened between me and Ayana. We just fell asleep in the same bed in my room. That'sallthatis. I didn't even touch it even if it was just the tip of a fingernail." Explain that Elsa will not accuse him.

"Mama and papa caught us like they didn't know about it. My mom asked me to marry Ayana. I rejected their wishes. But, as I looked at Ayana, I saw that she was very confused and frightened. I feel sorry for her, baby. I finally agreed to the marriage."

Elsa was still as silent as before. However, his heart felt broken to pieces. But, he tried to keep looking calm listening to Farraz's story.

"Trust me, baby. Marriage is only because of force. I don't want that wedding. And I told Ayana that I'm only going to marry you."

"You guys live in a house?" Ask Elsa curiously.

Farraz hesitated. "But we're not exactly right like our husband. Ayana and I slept in separate rooms. The marriage was known only to the nuclear family. I asked that this marriage be kept a secret."

"You love Ayana?" Ask Elsa again.

"Not at all, honey. I just feel sorry for him." Farraz said he hoped Elsa would believe him.

"Funny yeah. I guess I'm the one in the side. It turns out I'm the actor." Elsa's heavy speech held a tickling feeling in her heart.

"No, hon. I was wrong. I beg you to forgive me. And please believe me, I'll marry you soon." Trying to convince Elsa.

Elsa let out a breath that made her feel very tight and sultry also hurt.

"Married me soon. I'll give you two weeks. If you don't marry me, then I'm leaving your life, Raz." Elsa threatened.

Farraz smiled with relief at the threat from his lover. "Elsa, will you be my woman forever. To age me together. And will you accept me for what I am with all my bad past?"

Farraz said that while looking seriously at both of Elsa's eyeballs. Her hands tightly clasped Elsa's hands.

"Are you sure you want to live with me?" Ask Elsa.

"I'm sure. And I just want to marry you, my dear." Take out a small heart-shaped red box.

The little box was handed to Elsa. "Wear this ring if you're really ready to live with me?"

"What about Ayana?" Elsa asked before answering Farraz's proposal.

"I told Ayana about us and also my desire to marry you. And Ayana said, she'll take care of everything so that nothing else can stop us from getting married." Farraz explained.

"really?" Elsa's question was less convinced by Farraz's explanation.

"Yes, honey. You can just ask Ayana about that."

He looked lovingly at his lover. She hoped, Elsa believed him and was willing to accept his proposal.

Elsa smiled happily as she extended her ring finger at Farraz. And happily, without waiting for long, Farraz immediately paired the ring in Elsa's sweet finger.

"I love you, Raz." Said Elsa with glassy eyes.

Farraz pulls Elsa's body into his arms. She also gives a sweet kiss on Elsa's lips.

The happiness of two people was witnessed by the beach wind, waves and also the sunlight that was disappearing in the western horizon.

...🍀🍀🍀...

After the Magrib prayer, Ayana immediately put her hijab back on neatly. He will soon be doing his first job tonight in Singapore. He will meet directly with the client who entrusted Farezz Crupt with the project.

Driittt…

There's an incoming call for Ayana.

"Definitely Handi." Guess while reaching for the phone on the bed.

His eyes were fixed on his phone screen. There's the name Farraz. Lazily Ayana was forced to answer the call.

"Assalamualaik." Ayana said lazily.

"I just wanted to tell you that I proposed to Elsa and she accepted my proposal. I told Elsa the truth about us, too. He doesn't mind at all. But, like I said, he doesn't want polygamy. So, I hope you finish your task as soon as possible. We're getting married in two weeks." Farraz told me at length.

"At least answer my greetings, Mr. Farraz Ehsan. But it's okay. I understand how happy you are that you will soon marry the woman you love so much." Ayana said annoyed, but still sounded calm.

"I am currently working Abroad to honor the name of the company. But, if you want me to go back to Jakarta to settle our divorce, then I would be very grateful, Mr. Farraz Ehsan." Rigorously.

"Are you angry with me?" Ask Farraz.

"Hhaahhaa. You think I am who to be mad at you lord Farraz. I just remind you that I have a lot of work thanks to your kindness. But, if you want me to come back and take care of more important things than this project, then I will be more grateful to you." Ayana answered with a smile and laughs amusedly with Farraz's treatment of her.

"Alright, just do the project first. I'll explain to Elsa, so she can be patient waiting until you get back to Jakarta." Her speech.

"Where!" Shouted Sandy from outside the room.

Handi's voice was clearly heard by Farraz. And Ayana knew that, so she tried to take revenge for Farraz's treatment of her.

"Yes, Han. Wait daftar. I'm dancing again." His screams deliberately brought his mouth closer to the phone screen to be heard by Farraz.

"No need to dress up, you're beautiful and always beautiful in my eyes, Yana." Said Handi from behind the door of Ayana's room that was still closed.

Meanwhile, Ayana immediately approached the door so that she could hear Handi's voice to Farraz.

"Mr Farraz, it looks like I've been waiting. So I have to leave immediately. Bye." End the conversation immediately.

Then, Ayana immediately rushed to meet Handi. With a state of heart that feels uncertain, again and again Ayana still smiles to hide all her heart problems from Handi and Clients.

That night the meeting with the Client went well as planned. And they also really like the way Ayana expressed her ideas for this project and also the way Handi works which looks very calm and sure.

"Thank you Ms. Ayana, thank you Mr. Gandhi. See you tomorrow." Speak to the Client when the meeting ends.

Ayana and Handi smiled and nodded happily in response to their client's remark. Then, they also waved their hands to accompany the departure of the client using his luxury car.

"Well, we made it early. Passion for the next stage." Said Handi feeling pleased.

"Semangaatttt!" Shouted Ayana while smiling.

Sandy screamed with him. They didn't even care about the person who was staring in wonder at them.

'Relax, heart. Farraz is not yours. Let her go with her lover.' Thought Ayana with lips that did not stop displaying her sweet smile.
