Mahram To Azira
Chapters 20.4

"Azira, please stop. I know you've been finding out about Amara recently. You may be jealous of Amara, but this is not how Azira works. He and I are the past. It has nothing to do with the present." The weak voice of Kenzie's weak plea left Azira in shock.

As if sliced by a knife, Azira's heart ached and tight. Her husband doesn't believe what she's saying. Rather than believing it, Kenzie instead thought that he was intentionally doing this out of jealousy.

Azira is jealous of Amara. She is such an amazing woman that it could affect Kenzie's future, making Kenzie transform into someone else after being abandoned.

Azira jealous. But he did not dare to play to this extent let alone to endanger his life.

"So..." Azira tried to calm her hunting breath.

"...you don't trust me? You also assumed that I intentionally hurt Amara. Mr. Kenzie..." Azira didn't know what else to say.

"Azira, don't be stubborn. Tomorrow we will go to the hospital to apologize to Amara. She is a forgiving woman, if you apologize sincerely and sincerely, she will definitely forgive you." Kenzie lost his soft tone.

Azira is a very stubborn person, perhaps the first most stubborn woman Kenzie has ever met and seen.

"Sorry?" Indeed, even he was asked to apologize for a mistake he never made.

Azira was furious. Oh, maybe she's disappointed in her husband. Disappointed because her husband did not trust her enough and disappointed because her husband did not really know her.

It's very stifling.

"I'm not wrong, ma'am, why should I apologize to him? Rather than me apologizing to him, he better explain to me why he ate the food when he was allergic to shrimp?" Reply Azira cynically.

At any moment he would never apologize. And starting from that incident, he finally knew that no matter how sweet someone's smile does not mean his heart is good. Azira learned it directly from Amara.

He doesn't like Amara.

"Why are you so stubborn? His allergy was acute, shrimp meant poison to him, and eating poison was tantamount to suicide. Why do you think he should kill himself?" Kenzie insists Azira is wrong.

Logically, which normal human would eat poison and endanger his own life?

Azira laughed bitterly.

"According to him, why would he dare to do that? Of course because he wanted to frame me. He wants to vilify my name in front of you, mas!" Fazira stressed once again.

Isn't the goal very predictable?

"Astagfirulah...Oh, my God, Azira... How many times do I have to tell you that he and I are just the past. Now I'm married to you and she has a life of her own. There's no way Amara would do that. It's about human life, Azira." Kenzie's tone of voice was impatient.

Azira did not believe her husband's explanation. Instead she turns suspicious, seeing her husband constantly defending Amara no matter what she says, Azira wonders if Kenzie is still not detached from the past?

"Then what about you, Mom? Do you still miss the past?"

Dugs

Dugs

The sound of Azira's heart thumping loudly inside his chest. She was nervous waiting for her husband's answer.

"Omong empty what are you talking about. Amara is my friend. We're just friends. And I know very well how my friend's character is. Azira, it's not that I don't want to trust you. The problem is I already know how my friend's character. He cannot lie or even set you up. No, Azira. He's not that kind of person." Kenzie replied impatiently.

Precisely because of this impatience made Azira not too sure of the answer.

Azira did not know what else he had to say. He felt it was futile to make a defense. Because Kenzie does not want to hear or believe his explanation. But he didn't lie at all. He's not lying.

Azira took a deep breath. Pushing her husband's hand on the waist. He no longer wants to talk.

"My answer is still the same, ma'am. I refused to go and apologize to him. Kenzie, please let me go. My body is sultry."

Kenzie is very dizzy with Azira's stubborn answer.

"Azira don't-"

"Mas, loose. Umi and Abah are back." Azira said to remind.

Sighing heavily, Kenzie reluctantly releases Azira from his embrace.

As soon as Azira was free, she immediately left without saying a word to her husband. His pale and grim face of still anger instantly evaporated replaced by a smiling face as he welcomed the arrival of his two in-laws home.

"Assalamualaikum Umi and Abah, how was your trip? Is everything smooth that's fun?" Azira hurriedly kissed Umi and Abah's hands, then took over their belongings to the living room.

In the living room Kenzie was already sitting on one of the sofas. Sitting with his legs crossed while his dark attention followed wherever Azira moved.

"The trip was fun. Azira, we go there sometime. The air is still clean and the air is fresh. Very suitable for holidays. Umi hopes you will come with you on another occasion." Umi was very enthusiastic about talking about his relatives' hometown.

He and Abah are completely unaware that there is something wrong with Azira and Kenzie.

Azira smiled amusedly.

"God willing, Umi. I also want to go there because of Umi's story. I hope we have a chance."

Azira is busy. She prepared a warm tea for her in-laws. Busy in the kitchen to cook. Umi could not help due to exhaustion while Sasa still had not returned home from campus.

In the kitchen Kenzie came to help. Azira ignored him. Act as if there is no Kenzie here.

After dinner, Umi hurriedly pulls Azira away. There was something Umi wanted to talk about with Azira.

"Did Umi need anything?" Azira asked politely.

He was so exhausted. His legs were limp and his stomach was uncomfortable. If he could he wanted to immediately lay himself on the bed right now.

"Son, are you having a fight with Kenzie?" Ask Umi.

"Umi, nothing happened to us. It's just a small quarrel a trivial matter. We'll talk again soon." Azira generously admitted but did not say honestly that her quarrel with Kenzie was quite fatal in Azira's heart.

Umi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good, if this is a trivial matter. Conflict in the household is natural. No household is exempt from this test. The existence of a fight can actually encourage you to better understand each other. This is a test, you have to be patient. Live patiently, God willing, sooner or later this problem must pass. Understood?" Umi gave Azira a short advice.

Azira smiled shyly. Repeatedly nodding his head in understanding.

"Yes, go back to your room. If you need questions, do not hesitate to come to Umi. Umi and Abah had eaten a lot of salt until it was at this point. So it is not excessive if Umi says Umi has many solutions to every problem. Okay?"

Azira's heart warms.

"Okay, Umi."

After chatting for a while with Umi, she immediately went up to her room. At first he hesitated to go back to the room. It felt a bit awkward living in the same place as the person Azira was trying to avoid.

"I don't have a way out." With doubt he entered the room.

In her husband's room was waiting. Sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for Azira's arrival. Seeing Azira enter the room, the dark eyes immediately moved actively to follow wherever Azira stepped. If it used to be, Azira would probably blush in embarrassment. But tonight his heart is grieving.

"Azzira..." Call Kenzie.

Azira pouted, "Whatever Kenzie mas said, I will never apologize to her." before her husband said anything Azira first confirmed his decision.

Whatever Kenzie would say, Azira would never obey him. Here he was the victim, and it should have been Amara and the woman who came to take the initiative to apologize. Because of them, Kenzie misunderstood him. Assume that Azira has a short axis and recklessly harms people's lives.

Kenzie is very depressed.

"No. That's not what I mean."

Azira snorted, "Keep what?"

"I think... You'll avoid me again." Kenzie said as he stood up.

Azira was dumbfounded, then lowered her head hiding the longing within her eyes. Blame her for loving this man too much.

"It's night, mas. Let's sleep. Tomorrow Kenzie's gonna have to go to work." Azira said indifferently.

Taking a towel in the closet and a nightgown, she then went inside the bathroom to clean herself. 15 minutes later, she came out with a very refreshing appearance.

"Why not sleep?" Azira saw her husband still sitting on the spot.

"Waiting for you." Kenzie.

It would be a lie if Azira did not feel her heart soften. This man was both the source of his weakness as well as his strength. For this man he easily thinks positive or negative, easily cries and laughs, easily sad and even happy, he is the source for all feelings. So how could he possibly feel at home being cold to her?

Azira misses him so much and wants to be embraced by him again.

"Then let's go to sleep."

"Gum."

They both just got on the bed. Kenzie's phone suddenly rang. Kenzie immediately replied after seeing the caller id. His movements were much faster than Azira expected.

And last night when he called Kenzie many times, no one responded. The SMS he sent was like a stone thrown into the sea. Lost in the waves and never appeared again. Ah, considering her struggle last night to contact Kenzie, Azira's heart immediately felt crowded.

"Who's calling?" Azira asked indifferently.

Kenzie.

"This is my assistant. There's a precarious patient in the hospital who desperately needs a quick treatment from me. So I have to leave now." He said as he got off the bed and hurriedly picked up the coat on the hanger.

It turns out there is a patient, Azira feels relieved.

"Does Kenzie have to go?" It's late at night.

"It must be an emergency order. I'm leaving now and maybe coming back tomorrow morning. If Umi and Abah are looking, let's just say I left because of the emergency call from the hospital." Kenzie said in a hurry.

But Azira is still skeptical. Amara is also in the hospital and suddenly there is an emergency call from the hospital, could this really be an emergency call or does it have something to do with Amara?

"If Kenzie goes to see Amara, then I hope you don't go." Azira said bravely.

If her husband goes to Amara's place, Azira will be very disappointed in her husband.

"What the hell are you talking about? Why do I have to go to Amara's place these nights? We're not mahram, remember?" Kenzie's depressed.

On one hand he was happy to see his wife's jealousy but on the other he was disturbed. Because Azira if jealous must be reckless to do dangerous things. Hum, reckless?

Azira lowered her head in relief.

"It's good that Kenzie's still thinking clearly." Azira muttered indifferently yet could still be heard by her husband.

Kenzie is helpless. After yesterday's incident he promised not to be close to Amara again so that his wife did not misunderstand.

"All right, I'm leaving. Call me if anything happens. Assalamualaikum, dear." Kenzie kisses the top of Azira's head before running quickly out of the room.

"Hum, watch out if you're lying." Azira's whisper sulked.

But to be honest she was very happy to receive the attention of her husband. Although it was only a short kiss, Azira really enjoyed and thanked him.

God, may this test come to an end. I don't want my house to be destroyed like Mom's. O God, I ask that my husband's heart be always in Your protection. Set my husband's heart to me alone and remain unshakable even if third-party trials come through. O Allah, the All-Resistant, I leave all my household affairs to You to be ever in Your protection, O Allah. Aamiin aamiin Allahumma aamiin O Allah. Azira's mind chanted a prayer.
