"About what, sir?" ask Kayla curious. Eyes squinted while paying attention to Husni's movements that seemed increasingly agitated. Many times, the man rubbed the profuse sweat flooding his forehead using a handkerchief from inside his pants pocket.
Breathe deeply and breathe slowly. Eyes closed while convincing themselves that everything will be okay.
After feeling quite calm, Husni again said, "Begini, Miss Kayla. Earlier I would like to apologize if it interrupts your rest time. I came here not to talk about Mas Alvin but about the plan to ask Bu Kayla to be my wife."
"What's? Luring?" Kayla repeated Husni's words in a surprised tone. The woman opened her perfect eyes. So surprised as if a pair of round eyeballs fell and rolled down the legs. "Sure, you're kidding me, right?"
Husni shook his head quickly. "No, Ma. I sincerely wish to ask Bu Kayla to be a wife and mother to Adinda."
Kayla smiled wryly as she threw a glance in the other direction. The heart feels like it was stabbed by a knife, sick but not bleeding. "It seems that Mr. Husni was struggling to unwittingly walk into my house."
"You mean Miss Kayla?" Husni's forehead frowned while staring intently at Kayla.
"How could you have proposed to me if you weren't asleep" Kayla replied. "Sir Husni, I am a former actor who justified all kinds of ways to seize the rights of others. I took my husband from my best friend. Everyone knows my dark past. Are you ashamed to marry a woman like me? What would people say if they knew the head of RT was married to an actor. Your reputation and family's gonna be ruined."
"Thy? What is shame for? Not every human being has a past. So, why should I be ashamed to ask Miss Kayla to be my wife" replied Husni. "Mom, nothing in this world is perfect except the Creator. So, I don't feel humble when I say I want to arrest Miss Kayla."
"For the issue of reputation that will be destroyed by marrying Mom, I personally do not think too much about it. If it is destroyed, it is okay as long as it can have Bu Kayla, I want it," continued Husni. Although impressed with the dreadlocks but the sentence was sincerely coming from inside his deepest heart.
Kayla's brows furrowed after hearing Husni's reply. He thought, why is Husni so keukeh want to propose himself while out there there are still many single women who can be edited by the man. Is it possible that the man's brain shifted a few centi from his place to make the one-breeding widower insist on making it as a bride-to-be? I don't know, only God knows.
Breathe deeply while closing your eyes for a moment. After that, Kayla reopened her eyelids slowly. "Sir Husni may not care about the reputation destroyed by marrying a former actor, but what about family? Do they want to accept it? What about Fatimah? He must have been an easy target for the residents because he had a daughter-in-law of an actor and also barren."
Husni sighed harshly. Apparently to get Kayla is not easy, it takes an extra struggle to melt the woman's heart.
"Bu Kayla is calm, she and my extended family do not care about your past. They are willing to accept you for who you are. Moreover, at this time I have repented and promised not to repeat it again is more than enough to prove that you have changed. So, there's no reason for me not to ask Ms. Kayla to be Adinda's wife and mother."
Kayla glanced, her brown eyes staring question marklessly at Husni. "How could your family accept me. Did you threaten them so that they currently have 100% support from the closest family."
I don't know what else Kayla wants to say, the woman's tongue suddenly confused and the brain can't think clearly. I didn't expect that someone would accept him for who he was.
Kayla sighed violently, releasing the burden of life that felt like her chest was tight. "Before it's too late, have you thought carefully about the consequences that will be accepted if we get married?"
"Already! I've thought about it many times. My heart is getting more steady choosing Bu Kayla to be a companion to life," Husni replied as she stared at Kayla's brown iris.
"Do you not regret if later on I do not also give offspring to Mr Husni?"
"What is sorry for. If Ms. Kayla can't get pregnant because of an accident some time ago, we still have Adinda. My mom and I can raise her together. If Adinda is a teenager and Ms. Kayla wants to have another child, we can adopt in an orphanage." Husni pushed his body forward and said, "Whether or not a child, I still love Bu Kayla for who she is. So, please give me a chance to be Bu Kayla's life partner."
There was silence for a moment. Kayla seemed to be considering what answer to give Husni, while the tall man was trying to control himself not to look nervous in front of the idol.
Kayla took a deep breath again, then looked at Husni's face closely. The man's face can be said to be quite handsome, no less handsome than Mahesa. Age is quite mature, so it is able to protect himself who is often unstable in attitude. So what else is lacking? Isn't this a chance for her to forget about Mahesa and move on from her ex-husband?
After all, Kayla's hopes of reuniting with Mahesa have been dashed so why she continues to expect something uncertain. Although the love has not grown, but over time the flowers of love will bloom and thrive in the chest.
"If you really intend to interfere with me then .. I am willing to accept your good intentions," said Kayla Lirih. "Please teach me how to love Mr. Husni and guide me to continue in His way."
Husni smiled widely to show a row of white and clean teeth. "of course. I'll teach Ms. Kayla how to love me and forget your ex-husband."
