I Turned Out I Had Khodam
Chapter 79

Meka looks nervous because this new first introduced the same parents Zain. He stood beside Zain while putting on his smiling face.

Her mother Zain looked at Meka's appearance, she smiled as she looked at Meka who was scared but trying to calm down.

"Welcome to Zain's family, dear," greeted Mama Zain by embracing Meka.

"I.iya Aunty, thank you for accepting my entry into the Zain family."

His father Zain spoke a thousand languages because his wife accepted the woman of his choice. He did not want to show acceptance or rejection. There was no smile engraved on his face, flat expressionless. It made Meka a little scared.

"Ma, Pa, someone wants Zain to tell you both. It's about Zain's relationship with Meka."

"Come here Zain, Meka is sitting here. It is not good to talk while standing," said his mother.

"Pa.., do you want to stand there watching us?" chirp his wife but still look gently at her husband.

Then Zain's father sat down with them. He was beside his wife in front of Zain and Meka.

"What would you say Zain! You know how Papa's friends' children complained to their parents, and they were very angry with us. You really missed Zain! Do you realize what her parents are going to do to us?" Her face stood up with an unbearable emotion again while pointing with its index finger at Zain's face.

"Sorry Pa, but it's not Zain's fault! Zain just wanted to pick Zain's choice. And Zain's choice was Meka! Papa has to understand that."

"You're the one who should understand us Zain!"

"Pa, don't be angry. Your heart will hurt. Stop and sit here. We're talking nicely" her mother stood up and held her husband's arm to remind him not to get too angry.

Her husband turned to his wife and sighed.

"How can Papa not be angry Ma! She just acts as she pleases," her husband said.

"Pa, let Zain explain it to us. He is already big and can determine the course of his life. We should not be selfish not to listen to his confirmation. He is our son, we have to trust him more" said his mother wisely.

Meka looked at Mama Zain's face, looking firm but there was still a softness in her words.

"Pa, Ma, Zain didn't mean to get you in trouble. But Zain please, let Zain make Zain's choice. And Zain was not interested in that woman. Yesterday he came to Apartment Zain and hugged Zain like a cheap woman who was used to acting like that. She shamelessly hugged and tried to kiss Zain. Is that Papa's woman of choice?" ask Zain who acts emotionally.

"She's a good woman and from a good family too. You don't judge her ugly just for coming to see you and whining and whatever, you call her a cheap woman. What is he then!?" point Papa Zain at Meka's face.

Meka of course gasped when her name was called and treated that way by her Papa Zain.

Zain looked up at his father and he stood up and said something that surprised them.

"She's my wife! Never insult him! She was better than that cheap woman and I did not accept women who easily embraced other men without any ties. How can he be a good wife and mother who will give me good offspring if he easily gives up his body to embrace a man who has no strings attached, disgusting," zain's circus with overflowing emotions.

His mother Zain could not believe the news coming out of his son's mouth.

"Zain, is it true what you said son?" ask her mother with an incredulous face.

"Yes Ma, she's my wife. And we're officially married."

Then, his mother looked at Meka. And he's closing in on Meka. Then he suddenly slapped Meka with a gaze full of anger.

Meka was surprised to get a slap on her cheek, then she held her throbbing cheek. He stood up and looked at Mama Zain.

Zain looked confusedly at his mother. He had no idea he would see that scene.

"What did Mom do!" said Zain who still said softly to his mother.

"What did Mama say. Of course she is a good woman and from a good family," Zain replied no less fiercely.

Meka tried to hold her tears clear so as not to plunge free from her eyes. He kept smiling while holding the pain in his cheek.

"He's given you something bad, Zain. You should be aware of that! Papa doesn't approve of your relationship. And Papa never considered your marriage!" snapped his papa too.

"Whatever your decisions and desires, I will remain by his side. It's up to you to say I'm a bad boy. But I can't leave him because Zain loves him. Only he can make Zain better" Zain said.

"Let's love, let's get out of here" Zain invites Meka to leave Zain's parents' house. Meka held him.

"Mas, however, we are guilty of not telling this to people who know you. It can't be like that."

"Tante, Om, I know that in the eyes of Aunt and Om I am a bad woman because she married without permission from Mas Zain's parents. But I love him very much. And do not intend to make Mas Zain to be disobedient with Om and Aunty. And one thing Aunty and Om have to know, I'm a nice woman who never came into contact with another man except Mas Zain. And my family is a good family and full of manners. I'm sorry if I was rude and disrespectful for having to say it. Thanks for the slap Aunty gave me without Aunt knowing the truth, I'm sorry," Meka left the room and walked away from Zain.

"Sorry Ma, Pa, Zain chose to stay with Zain's wife. Sorry to disappoint the two of you, Zain said Ma, Pa, Assalamu'alaikum," Zain hurried after Meka who had come out of his house.

"Darling wait!" Zain sped his way so as not to lose Meka.

Zain saw Meka crying beside the car door and waited for Zain to approach her.

Zain came and hugged him. Meka's body shook withstanding the unexpressed emotions.

"I'm sorry, I made you like this. I shouldn't have brought you here. Forgive me," said Zain full of regrets.

Meka was in her husband's arms sobbing. He shook his head and said,

"No, you're not wrong. And your parents are not wrong, either" Meka said in a sad voice.

Meka is not a hypocrite. He didn't want to lose Zain. They are legal as husband and wife. Despite having to defy the will of Zain's parents, he does not want to let go of Zain. Selfish let it be said to be selfish. Zain wanted it too.

"Let's go back to the apartment, baby" Zain asked Meka to return to their apartment.

He tense up and he gets into the car. Same with Zain. Finally they left Zain's parents' house with a sad feeling.

While in the house of Zain's parents, his mother was sitting limp to see the departure of his only son. He did not expect to face such a situation. He feels inferior to Zain's escort woman, Meka.

"Pa, how is this? Zain we're leaving me! Huhuhuhu," his wife was sobbing on the sofa.

Then his father Zain sat down beside his wife and calmed her down.

"Already Ma, don't think children don't know themselves! He prefers that woman to his parents. Why do you still care about him, huh!" the jolt of her husband who still could not dampen her anger.

"He's the kid I gave birth to! You know what it feels like when I have it! I can't lose Zain! Huhuhuhu,"

Zain's father was dizzy thinking about this situation. On the one hand he hated his son's decision and on the other he had to give in to his wife.

"So what do you want now?"

"Pa, we'll take that woman. We give them a chance to show that he deserves our son Zain. Papa used to keep Mama from Papa's parents, so give them the opportunity, so they don't experience what we feel Pa," whined his wife who begged him.

Zain's father was silent and could not make up his mind. He was still confused as to what to do.
