After Misunderstanding - CHAPTER 10

🌹HAPPY READING🌹

"Trust me, Mom. This must be slander. There are people who are trying to destroy our relationship, Mas. Believe me," said Aludra lirih.

"I don't know what to do with you now, Aludra," said Zergan and walked out of his study.

Seeing Zergan leaving, Aludra immediately chased after the man.

Rea who saw that smiled smirked. "Rea was resisted," the woman muttered with a satisfied smile.

*Flashback On*

Rea looked at Aludra and Grace who were going to the room they were using to get a tattoo. Deliberately, the woman followed Grace and Aludra from behind. Rea peeked and heard the conversation of the two people from the door that was not tightly closed.

Rea's face flushed with clenched arms hearing Grace who told Aludra indirectly that she was a bad woman. "You dare with me, Grace," muttered Rea sharply.

"We just use the hena, Aludra," said Grace who was heard by Aludra. Quickly, Rea went to a special booth where she placed various kinds of hena inks and tattoos belonging to Grace's shop.

Rea smiled cunningly. He put the mixture into the Hena ink that Grace would use for Aludra. "In this way, your hen will look like a tattoo, my dear brother-in-law," the woman muttered happily after she was done with her work.

Afraid that Grace would arrive, Rea hid behind the door. His smile grew even more when he saw Grace take the container she had just mixed in.

Not wanting to be caught, Rea immediately walked out of the room and went to her room to paint a tattoo on her body.

*Flashback Off*

Rea is still faithfully standing in Zergan's workspace. The woman was completely satisfied with her actions. "If I can't have Bang Zergan, then no other woman can" he said, grinning wickedly with a sharp look forward.

.....

Aludra chased Zergan to their room. The woman continued to call her husband who had not heard what she said at all.

"Mas, for God's sake. I didn't do anything like you accused me, Mas" Aludra said after the two of them reached the room.

Zergan. "Don't dare bring God, Aludra. At least it won't add to your sin" replied Zergan flatly.

"What's your purpose in wearing such clothes?" zergan looked at Aludra.

"Wrong if I wear this kind of clothes in front of my own husband?" ask Aludra.

Zergan laughed blandly. "You want to show me that beautiful picture, don't you? You want to hurt me even more by making it clear that the woman in the video is you, Aludra," Zergan said.

Aludra nodded slowly. "I'm not that bad, Mom. Believe me, your sister is lying" Aludra assured Zergan.

"Don't you dare accuse others of saving you, Aludra. Don't make yourself look bad" replied Zergan, turning his back on Aludra.

"You trust your sister more than I do, your wife?" ask Aludra.

"It's not me who wants to be like this, Aludra. But you made me this way" replied Zergan.

Aludra walked with trembling legs and stood right in front of Zergan. The two eyes looked at each other.

"He's just your stepbrother, Mas. But I am your wife" said Aludra bravely.

"I know that. But at least he knows how to thank you for not betraying" replied Zergan.

Zergan's mouth was tightly shut hearing Aludra's question. I don't know, his heart was so hard to believe what his wife said. His heart was still overshadowed by the videos.

"I don't care if you want to share my company's data with anyone, Aludra. The company is broken, I can still get up. But if it's my heart, how do I get up if it's the bark you broke, Aludra?" zergan replied gently looking at Aludra with a soft look.

Aludra cried at Zergan's question. The woman raised both her hands and clenched in front of her chest. "I beg you to believe this time, that the woman is not me" said Aludra with a voice trembling with tears. His head lowered hoping for a bit of Zergan's confidence in what he said.

"I'd love to trust you, Aludra. I deliberately went back to playing that barbaric video to look for evidence. I found one suspicion. When I wanted to make sure, you proved first that the woman was indeed you, Aludra," Zergan replied grudgingly looking at Aludra with teary eyes.

Aludra took Zergan's hand and held it gently. "I can prove that this one in my body is hena, Mas, not a tattoo. And I can also prove that I'm not the woman in the video" said Aludra, gently holding back her tears.

"Don't take too long. Don't let my race fade because of your efforts that can't prove everything" replied Zergan slowly.

Aludra stared fixedly at Zergan. "I'm afraid my heart is tired of proving, but you stick with your stand that believes what you see. You know, Mas. Sometimes the eyes can betray the heart to make it hurt" said Aludra.

Aludra kissed the back of Zergan's hand. Zergan just kept quiet and stared at me what Aludra was doing. "I won't be long. If my time is up, I will give you happiness. Although I must give in to the happiness of all of us," continued Aludra softly after tucking the back of Aludra's hand.

After saying that, Aludra came out of the room leaving Zergan alone who was still standing there.

Aludra stopped right behind the closed door. Her tears just dripped with her body shaking. I'm afraid of divorce, my God. It's not that I'm afraid of not being able to live without my husband, but that I don't want him to get regret for the rest of his life. Inner Aludra with eyes closed.

After calming herself down and regulating her roar of breath, Aludra turned to look at Zayn's room. Due to the close proximity of the room, Aludra could hear the happy laughter of Rea and Zayn.

"I follow your play, Rea," muttered Aludra with clenched hands remembering how the look on Rea's face gave a lie with his innocent face.

.....

Zergan sat on his bed with a blank look. The words of Aludra and Rea, who testified to each other, continued to ring in the man's ear.

"Who should I trust? My heart or my mind?" he mumbled asking himself.

Zergan grabbed his own hair to dispel the dizziness that suddenly came over. One side there is a sister that he loves very much, one side there is a woman that he loves very much. I don't know, for sure now, Zergan will wait for the proof that Aludra gives.

.....

The next day, Zergan's attitude was still cold to Aludra. Only in front of Zayn can he be sweet and really play the role of being a very good husband and father. It was as if she and Aludra had not happened. Aludra drove Zergan to the front of the house after she finished breakfast. The woman held back Zergan's hand who was about to board the car to immediately go to the office. "What's wrong?" ask Zergan slowly.

"Is there time this afternoon?" ask Aludra gently.

"Why?"

"Follow me, Mas. I will prove that yesterday was a henna, not a tattoo" replied Aludra.

"I'll be home by lunchtime."
