Best Son-in-law
The Fall of a Heart

Unexpectedly, their conversation had since been heard by Mr. Prayoga. With a calm attitude he approached them and tried to provide a solution.

“Chandra, you must know very well what the duties and obligations of a medical personnel are not? As a medic you must be under oath requiring you to help every human in need regardless of who they are and what their social status is.

“The Wijaya family and the Kertadinata family have been in a good relationship for a long time. In fact, we consider them our own family. If someone else you help, why can't you help your own family?” said Mr. Prayoga calmly.

Hearing the words of her father-in-law, Chandra fell silent and allowed the words of her father-in-law in her heart.

(It's not that they've been considered family by my father-in-law, but I've been under oath as a medic. My life should have been devoted to society indiscriminately), inner Chandra.

Finally, Chandra took out a piece of paper from his pants pocket and took out a ballpoint pen from his shirt pocket. Then he wrote something down and handed the paper to Andre.

“This, take. Take this medicine regularly, if within a week you do not experience any changes immediately meet me. This remedy is also to reduce your anxiety at night.”

With a smile, Andre picked up the piece of paper and said, “Thank you Chandra, I know you must be a good person. Forgive me for what I said. I'm sure Sonya must be very lucky to have a husband like you. This take this painting as my thanks.”

“Remember Andre, there is no disease that cannot be cured as long as we want to try. You can't give up,” Chandra said as she patted Andre's shoulder warmly.

Then he took the painting given by Andre and thanked him.

After the departure of the mother and child, Chandra's heart beat twice as fast. He knew he had made a big mistake. He had insulted the Kertadinata family which was clearly a good friend of his wife's family.

“Daddy-in-law, forgive me for my rude attitude earlier. I should have been more able to hold back my emotions and not get hooked easily,” Chandra said nervously.

Hearing Chandra's apology, Mr. Prayoga smiled warmly.

(I've never misjudged you Chandra. You may be just an ordinary person and without special talent in the eyes of others, but in my eyes you are a great figure and have a high sense of humanity), Mr. Prayoga said inwardly.

“What's wrong Chandra, they should have gotten such treatment. I'm glad you can be tough now. If ants can bite when trampled by elephants, let alone humans who are continuously hurt. So it's only natural that they defend themselves, including you. Come on, it's been a better night for us to come in, sorry Sonya must have been waiting for you inside.”

Mr. Prayoga grabbed Chandra by the shoulder and invited him in.

“Aaarrrggghhh!” The screams of a woman were heard from inside the bathroom. At that time Chandra was just about to change his work clothes with a bathrobe. Chandra rushed straight to the bathroom.

Tok tok tok tok

“Sonya, are you okay inside?” Chandra asked, worried.

“My leg sprained! I can't move it, it hurts so much!”

Chandra could have just walked in and barged into the bathroom, but he knew Sonya would be very angry with him. So he decided to ask again, “Can I go in and check on your condition Sonya?”

A moment of silence from inside, there was no answer. Even Chandra held her breath for fear that her question would make Sonya angry.

“It's okay, you can enter Chandra,” Sonya replied.

Chandra's heart was pounding more and more when he knew he was going inside. Imagining his wife's body using only a towel, or even without a thread makes her body cold hot.

Chandra then took a deep breath before finally opening the bathroom door before her. Just as she expected, Sonya was sitting on the floor while holding onto her sprained ankle. It's just that Sonya doesn't wear a towel or no thread. The woman was wearing a bathrobe. Something more closed yet somehow looks more seductive in Chandra's eyes.

For a moment, Chandra seemed hypnotized to be unable to move due to seeing such a beautiful sight in his eyes. Hearing Sonya who returned complaining of pain, Chandra's consciousness returned.

“Mari, let me see your feet,” said Chandra then crouched down in front of Sonya and held the woman's ankle.

Sonya's ankle looks swollen and blue in an instant, probably because of the effect of Sonya's skin is very white.

The position of their bodies are very close, making Sonya can see clearly the changes that happened to her husband. Chandra's shirt buttons are already several open at the top.

Showing his field chest. The smell of masculine perfume was clearly smelled in Sonya's sense of smell. Even Chandra's hair has its own scent in Sonya's sense of smell, an intoxicating scent.

“Can you stand?” Chandra asked as he looked at his wife's half-dreaming face.

“U... Yes, I don't know..my legs feel very painful,” replied Sonya stammering. Obviously he was very embarrassed to be caught observing the man before him.

“Alright, then let me carry you all the way to the sofa in the room. How, hm?” chandra asked with a warm smile.

Sonya's tongue felt mute, instead of answering she just nodded her head. Then Chandra slipped his hands under the legs of Sonya, and both of Sonya's hands held tightly to Chandra's neck. Their position made Sonya's face flushed red from enduring the embarrassment.

Chandra dropped Sonya down on the long sofa in their room, then she knelt down and started massaging Sonya's legs. While kneeling Sonya's legs, again he accidentally saw the bottom of Sonya's bathrobe that was open.

This time, he could see clearly how smooth and white Sonya's legs were, even Sonya's chest was full despite being hidden under her thick bathrobe.

Many times Chandra tries to distract him. He is a normal adult who has his own needs.

Chandra finally chooses the safe way by having Sonya talk, “How did you fall in the bathroom, Sonya?”

“So I was in a hurry because there was still some work to be done. I... forgot to dry my feet and I half ran,” replied Sonya, embarrassed.

“Other times you should be more careful. This time you're lucky because only your ankle sprained. Do not let any other parts injured or even hit,” said Chandra.

“Try now use your feet to stand,” pinta Chandra.

Sonya followed Chandra's request and stood up. Then his face looked bright, his smile was warm to Chandra.

“Thank you Chandra, my feet are fine. You're so talented to be a physiotherapist.”

Chandra returned Sonya's smile with no less warmth. Her heart was warm to see Sonya's smile on her.

“Alright, then. I think now it's my turn to cleanse the body, you rest. Work can still be delayed until tomorrow.”

Chandra immediately went into the bathroom, leaving Sonya now pensively staring at Chandra's back.

(You really changed Chandra. You're no longer the awkward and weak man you used to be. Even now you are so dazzling in your own way), Sonya said inwardly.

After thirty minutes, Chandra came out of the bathroom. It deliberately linger in there. He can't see Sonya's body anymore without touching it.

Chandra was already wearing her pajamas and preparing to climb onto the bed, as her eyes caught something under their bed. Although the object is hidden, but from its clear shape it is a mat and there are several other sleeping equipment. He only realized now why his body reacted in such a way when he saw Sonya's body only in a bathrobe, it was because they slept separately and never in such a close distance.
