Alex lowered his emotions. The soft voice of the owner of the emerald eyes again cooled his heart. He sat back with Sophia.
"Sophia must be scolding you, right?" ask Alex.
"Not really, I forgot my birthday today, so I bought my mom a necklace and a bag" Sophia replied.
Alex kissed Sophia's forehead. She did not expect Sophia to think that far. He's the one whose only son never remembers his mother's birthday. Alex and her mother are not that close. They tend to live on their own paths. There is no closeness between mother and child. Just money and money.
"It's just that I'm not mad, you give her something she likes, I'm sorry Sophia" Alex said.
"Why apologize, your mother, my mother too, so did your family, my family too" Sophia said.
Alex's eyes are glazed. The woman in front of him was indeed an angel heart. He never paid back his family's bad deeds but instead sowed kindness.
"I'm lucky to have you Sophia, thank you for coming into my life" Alex said.
"Mas, Sophia will be here, a wife and a place where you share everything" Sophia said, touching Alex's chest.
Alex is suddenly devastated. It was great to be with Sophia. No noble-hearted woman accepts it as it is. Giving shade and conditioning his soul.
"That's why you want to return the 2 Trillion?" ask Alex.
"Yes, after all yesterday Mas also paid the land money to Luis' account, I feel this is to maintain your relationship with your father and mother" Sophia said.
"The 5 Trillion land money is purely from my personal account, so don't think about returning it, I want to play your husband Sophia" Alex said.
"Yes my husband" praised Sophia spoiledly.
Cup
Alex kissed the pomegranate's red lips for a moment when Sophia praised him. It was rare for Sophia to be so spoiled. Makes him anxious.
"Sexy" praised Alex.
Sophia smiling. Embarrassedly. But so happy when her husband said that to her.
"For 2 Trillion dollars, you don't have to give it back, let's just say I bought a diamond necklace for mom, and I've never bought anything for her, ever since" Alex said.
"Alright, so all clear yes, no problem anymore" Sophia said.
"There's another problem" Alex said.
"What Mas?" ask Sophia astonished. The problem with his mother was solved.
Alex approaches Sophia's pretty face. Code with his eyes. So did Sophia who only replied with a nod. Alex is hunting Sophia. Although it is still afternoon, as long as there is time there is no harm in combining love. They are halal.
Alex raced with burning lust over the love that filled his heart. Pouring it in a beautiful touch in every taste that makes Sophia fall in comfort like no other. They enjoy it second by second. Every tiredness and ambition become one. They both got drunk on romance. Floating is like being in a beautiful place. The melodious sounds kept coming from the mouths of the two filled the room that only the two could hear.
Two hours of running. The voice of Adhan stopped the activities of two people who were drunk with love. Alex and Sophia lay down for a moment gathering energy and regulating the breath.
"Sholat magrib congregate dearly," said Alex.
Sophia nodded.
"It looks like in the living room, let's be with grandfather," said Alex..
"Byeah" sahut Sophia.
"Sholat congregate," said Grandpa David.
"Yes Kek" said Alex and Sophia.
"Then you must be Alex's priest" Grandpa David proposes.
"Ready," said Alex.
They stood at their respective shafs. Preparing for magrib prayer. Suddenly Claudya approached them. He was wearing a shirt too.
"You want to join Claudya's prayer?" ask Grandpa David..
"Yes, congregational prayers seem more exciting" Claudya said.
Grandpa David smiled. Claudya had never prayed, but now she saw that her granddaughter was neatly wearing a mukena. The house that was once only David's grandfather who prayed, since the arrival of Sophia, became the light in the house.
"Come on, get in line," Grandpa David asked.
"Ready Cake" Claudya said. He stood beside Sophia. Follow the prayer together. The sight was so pleasing to the eye. Four people pray together. The house that used to be quiet like no occupants is now filled already. The arrival of Sophia slowly changed the contents inside, giving warmth and bright light.
After the prayer, Alex and Sophia return to their rooms. Grandpa David sat down next to Claudya. He wondered what made his grandson change.
"Grandfather lately you've been more calm, started praying again, why?" ask Grandpa David. He wanted to know the reason Claudya could change. Usually he is rarely at home, urakan and never pray.
"I saw Brother Alex, he now looks happy. But the key is simple" said Claudya.
"What?" ask Grandpa David.
"Faith" replied Claudya.
"Why Faith?" ask Grandpa David.
"Sister Alex who used to live a life full of sin, but I don't see him happy, but now that faith is in his heart, Brother Alex is much happier, I want it that way too," answer Claudya.
"You are right my grandson, if you have faith in your heart, no matter how small you have, will satisfy your happiness" said Grandpa David.
"Sophia has carried that faith in the heart of Brother Alex, she is like a light in the life of Brother Alex, I want it to be like that, be a light for others," said Claudya.
Grandpa David smiled. He embraced his youngest grandson. Very rarely can they chat from heart to heart.
"You will be the light in your father-in-law's house, be a sholeha wife and daughter-in-law who brings the light in the house, like Sophia," said Grandpa David.
"Amin, thank you, dear" said Claudya.
Grandpa David nodded. He was happy to see that both of his grandchildren were on the right track. Until the other son, daughter-in-law and grandchild. Grandpa David hoped that the house would be crowded during congregational prayers and heard the chanting of holy verses of the Qur'an. Like his wife's hope.
After the prayer Sophia went out of her room. He wanted to help Bi Inem and Bi Siti prepare a barbeque event for her mother-in-law's birthday celebration. Sophia walked to the stairs, but accidentally heard Mr. Ferdi's voice talking on the phone with someone in a relaxing room. There's a name Alex mentioned in that conversation. Sophia approaching. Stand next to the door of the room.
"Alex is not my son" said Mr. Ferdi.
"I want to teach him a little lesson" said Mr. Ferdi to the person he was calling.
Sophia was shocked when she heard that word. Eyes glazed. I have no power to hear that reality. He doesn't know that Alex isn't Mr. Ferdi's son. Sophia covered her mouth with her hands.
"Did Alex know about this?" inner Sophia. He didn't expect to hear this. Sophia left the place. Walk slowly. His body feels weak. He still holds his heart. Don't know what to do after hearing the truth.
