Love In Forced Marriage
Chapter 12//Adherent Memories

It didn't feel like Rania had left this world for forty days. Until now Andreas is still faithful to visit the grave of his late wife. She always carries a bouquet of white and purple flowers, Rania's favorite color. The most important thing he always did, was to pray for Rania.

Andreas usually stays there for more than two hours. Because after she finished praying she always invited Rania to talk as if she was still alive. Today is the same as that. After praying he told Rania a long story.

Zoya saw the sight from behind a tree not far from there. He saw how cheerful Andreas was when he had told him in the tomb of Rania. Andreas was always silent in his house. Since Rania's death, Andreas has spent more time in the office. Even at home, he kept looking at the photos of Rania in his room. Yes, it cannot be denied if Andreas really loves Rania. Because Rania is her first love.

At the residence of the Brahmantya Himawan family, many people were busy preparing for the 40-day study of Rania's death. The show will start soon. Flora and Jemma have just arrived. They are compactly dressed in milky white clothes complete with a scarf covering the head.

To this day Rania's biological father has not been seen. Andreas was really furious at the nature of his father-in-law. It was as if there was no sadness to lose her biological daughter. Rania has a lot of respect for her father. During life also Rania always attach importance to the affairs of his father. Rania became successful as well to make her father happy. But why Candra's father seemed to only half-heartedly love Rania.

Andreas was just silent to see Flora only come with Jemyma. He was tired of asking when his father-in-law would return to visit Rania's grave.

There were also special guests invited by Andreas. These are orphans from orphanages. Andreas felt that Rania would be happy to hear the prayers of the adorable children. Rania used to be very happy to visit the orphanage where the children were. In his heart he wanted to adopt but with his condition seriously ill, he undoes his intentions. Every month he makes donations to the orphanage. The children of the orphanage were very sad when they heard the news of their fairy godmother dying. Yeah, they call Rania the fairy godmother.

The event was started, led by Ustadz Ahmad who had led prayers from the first day of Rania's death. Everyone is sitting in the place that has been provided.

Zoya did not sit down to pray. He was behind helping Cici and the catering team prepare dishes for those present at this event. It just so happens that Zoya is menstruating so she cannot follow the holy verses of the Qur'an.

The event of the chanting of the holy verses of the Qur'an and prayers is almost complete. After that, we will continue with a meal together. Zoya fills the glasses neatly arranged with syrup and milk for the children and guests present there.

Done doing that Zoya intends to return to the kitchen to take the side dish that is still not served. When he turned around, he bumped into Jemma, who was carrying a glass of syrup. The syrup water immediately littered the white clothes Zoya was wearing.

"Upss, Sorry Zoya your clothes are so dirty." Jemyma said as she rubbed Zoya's clothes with her hands. In her true heart she is disgusted at all to hold Zoya who is not at her level.

"It's okay Miss, I just change clothes. Excuse me." Zoya

Jemma smiled at Zoya's departure. But then he followed her. I don't know what he's planning.

Zoya goes into Cici's room because that's where she keeps her things and clothes. He opened the closet, looking for a change of clothes. But it turns out that the remaining Muslim clothes are only black and blue. There was no other white shirt he had brought into the house.

"Oh yeah I came here with just a little shirt. Well, I'm wearing black. Do I wash it and wear this shirt again" said Zoya confused.

Finally he chose to rinse the stain on his face with water. But it still seems to be getting wider. The tone is getting visible.

"Then it's getting more visible. Shame also if you think you wear dirty clothes with people. Hmm, better change it." Zoya said as she walked out of the bathroom.

As he was about to return to the room, Jemma called out to him. Jemyma had a solution to her dirty clothes. Jemyma carried a lilac purple transparent lace-white long dress.

"Zoya you must be confused not to have a change of clothes, right? This is you just wear it. The size should fit you." Said Jemma while holding out the dress she was carrying.

"Whose shirt is Miss's?" Zoya asked doubtfully accepting the dress.

Zoya is silent at the sight of Jemyma's statement about the boutique. It was seen that Jemma did not like the boutique falling into her hands.

"Hurry and change your clothes." Said Jemma who immediately sauntered away.

Zoya was still silent at the spot observing the dress. The dress is still tagged, signifying it's a new dress. He hesitated to wear it.

Arrive at the end of the event to support the orphans. Andreas and his parents lined up to give envelopes and parcels for the children of the orphanage who had attended the event.

Jemmyma was sitting next to her mother. He keeps watching the surroundings. Zoya has not been seen since. Possibly Zoya is busy in the back. Jemymma wondered if Zoya was wearing the clothes she had given her earlier or not.

The shoots at ulam love also arrived, according to the expectations of Jemma. Zoya comes out with a parcel for the kids. Zoya is seen wearing Rania's clothes given by Jemma.

Andreas still hasn't seen it, as he's focused on the orphanage children. Jemma was already impatient to see Andreas' reaction. Because it is a special dress owned by Rania gift from Andreas.

The show is over, all the guests have gone home. Except for Flora and Jemma. They won't be home until they see Andreas' anger on Zoya.

"Mama we must not go home before we see the lackey being maddened by Andreas." Bisik Jemymma to her mother.

Zoya helps clean up the dirty dishes and also the litter. This was the first time Andreas saw himself wearing a Rania dress.

Andreas' eyes instantly rounded perfectly. His jaw hardened as if preparing to attack his prey. Then with a shunt step he pulls Zoya to leave the place. Andreas takes Zoya to the side of the house. Where there's no one traffic there.

Zoya's hand was thrown away by Andreas when she got there. Andreas's hand clutches until it imprints on his wrist. Zoya really doesn't understand what this is. I don't think he made any mistakes.

"Master what's wrong? Why are we here?" Zoya asked trembling without daring to look into Andreas' eyes.

"Who let you wear that shirt?" Andreas asked in a clasped tone. It makes Zoya feel scared.

"Sorry to my Master ..."

"You're married to me, but that doesn't mean you can use Rania's belongings!" Andreas snapped in anger as Zoya did not finish answering her question.

"Sorry sir, I'll change my clothes right now and wash them." Zoya said with a voice holding back tears.

"You should think before you wear it! Washing is also free because you have used it! You don't know the story behind this dress!"

Andreas is really mad at Zoya. Behind the walls Flora and Jemma laughed silently. They are satisfied to see Zoya exposed to the tantrums of Andreas and of course their relationship will not be good. Jemma wishes Andreas Zoya's mentality right now.
