Chapter 33
At twelve o'clock the night passed by a few minutes, Zara exited the Fasad apartment unit she was currently using to settle down.
Although the crying was almost exploded, Zara tried to refrain from looking okay so as not to seize the attention of people who were still assigned to guard. But once inside his car, the girl was immediately stunned. His crying sounded very slicing. The pain of losing a good name is nothing compared to losing a good friend. Lost all his hopes and aspirations.
“Entah time to how much I experienced something like this...”.
Zara had a chance to think whether he could still stand upright after he lost half his pole.
Zara grabbed the tissue to wipe her wet eyes. For a few seconds, both of those sad eyeballs can dry out. But when he recalled the words of Fasad talak to him a moment ago, Zara again cried bitterly. His face was wet again and his body was shaken.
“Yes, Lord ...” he can no longer complain but shed his pain with tears.

A few tens of minutes passed. After Zara regained control, she continued on her way home. That night, he could not close his eyes for a second because he was thinking too much about what had just happened. Until the next day, he could not hide his crooked eyes to Miranda who deliberately came to bring him breakfast.
“Yeah, why are your eyes swollen like this, honey?” Miranda touched the swollen part. Without responding to anything, Zara threw herself into the arms of her mother and went back to crying there. Miranda understands that her daughter is in trouble. “What problem is there? Same story Mami ...”
“He divorced me, Mam,” Zara replied resignedly. He tried to be willing even though he initially hated Miranda— because this person had the biggest role in the destruction of his household. The facade is inferior and inferior because of this woman's speech. Either because of the Facade condition that is easily carried away by feeling because ‘saknya’ or indeed Miranda's speech that is too piercing? He doesn't know for sure. But clearly, when viewed from a different perspective, the separation would never have happened if the two were destined to be together. Marriage is about two people fighting each other, not just one of them.
Miranda tightened her arms to add strength to her daughter. As a form of consolation, that day Mike also slept at Zara's house and spoiled her like a princess so that she would not feel alone.
Unable to live alone anymore, Zara officially moved into her parents' house a few days after the incident.

“What does Mami think if I want to freeze eggs?” said Zara made Miranda and two other people who were doing breakfast suddenly widen their eyes. Still early in the morning like this, already invited to discuss the issue of laying.
“Why? Rotten fear? Mami's refrigerator feeling is still okay, make the vegetable beak is also still durable,” Miranda said like that because it does not know where this story began.
“Not chicken eggs, Mam. My egg cell,” Zara clarifies.
“Uhuk!” instantly Miranda who was drinking directly choked, “lah, why would you want to be frozen?”
“Zara ...” but Zara's speech was truncated before she explained it further.
“Come, we're talking inside.” The middle-aged woman invites Zara away from the breakfast table because she does not want Michael to hear their conversation that leads to sensitive things. Because the boy's curiosity is still very big and Miranda doesn't want this child to ask a lot of questions. Can make dizzy.
“Ayoloh ... Mommy and sister want to talk about what? Use the secrets of everything,” said Mike who was immediately interrupted by his papi, Ruben.
“Sst! Don't listen if you're not allowed to hear their conversation. Quickly finish your breakfast, we're off!”
“Papi, what are they talking about, anyway?” can't do. Michael was curious.
“Don't kepo, it's women's business.”
“Task there with Mami,” replied Ruben did not want to take a headache. Throwing answers is the most appropriate solution, so that he does not dizzy seven roving into a google machine for his son.
Elsewhere, Miranda again made clear what her first child had just said. “Well, now we're safe. What's the reason you want to freeze eggs, honey?”
“Sorry, Mom... Zara thought Zara's age was enough. Fear, if the marriage is still a long time, later the egg produced is not good anymore. Zara is worried about not being able to give offspring to Zara's husband later. So that's the reason.”
“It's far away apparently your thinking, son..”.
“This is the natural instinct of a woman, Mam. Just in case of fear of the feared happening.”
“Mami only then can still get pregnant at the age of 45 years, really. As long as we want to keep a healthy lifestyle, you can too. After all you are still 30 years old .. change, at least age 35 to his doctor. But Mami guess, anyway, you marry her will not be that old,” she said have a different opinion, “or want Mami to help find a husband again? Through line taaruf.”
“But Zara is not getting married yet, Mam. In addition to still undergoing the Idah period, Zara also wants to learn religion first. Want to be a better person so you can have a good partner too.”
Miranda smiled and rubbed her child's cheeks slowly, “Mami support whatever your decision, dear. Later if you are ready, tell Mami, yes?”
Zara nodded. Promise to God and yourself to no longer do things that are not commendable like yesterday. Yes, the hope is so.
