Mahram To Azira
Chapters 20.8

In a VIP room, a girl walks back and forth in the room biting her index finger. Sometimes he would stop staring at the door of his room. And once in a while if he heard the sound of footsteps outside, his two feet immediately moved quickly up the bed and waited impatiently while staring at the door of his room.

He has been in the hospital for two days. And it's been two days that Kenzie hasn't come to visit. The last time Kenzie was here was when he drove her to hospital. But after that day Kenzie never came to visit.

"Mara, relax. Let's sit back in your bed." Nabil was tired of seeing his cousin walking back and forth in the room.

He got dizzy seeing it. Not to mention that she did not get enough rest because she watched Amara during her hospital stay.

"Sir Nabil, how can I calm down if Kenzie never comes here to see me!" Angry Amara was upset and sad at the same time.

It's been two days, for two days he's he's been waiting here. He should have been able to return home today but for Kenzie's sake, he was willing to extend his stay. But the one who is expected never comes here. This disappointed Amara. Though he who misses Kenzie very much and hopes to come back close.

"Patience, Amara. You know for yourself that Kenzie is very busy. He works as a doctor at this hospital. And I heard from his colleagues, Kenzie's working hours at the hospital are pretty solid. As you know on the first night you were rushed to the hospital, he could not accompany you because he got a hospital emergency call and the same as last night. I've seen it myself. He was busy taking care of some patients. Amara, I'm sure she actually wanted to come see you. But the situation is not supportive so it can only be postponed." Nabil tried to calm his cousin's sister down to make her calmer.

He wasn't lying, what he said was indeed how it was. Kenzie was always busy in the hospital to the point of not having time to rest for a while. He thinks this is natural. Because Kenzie is one of the main doctors at this hospital. Which name will always be sought for large or important patients.

Hah, Kenzie's growth is too rapid. They are the same age, but why is Kenzie so much more developed than he is?

While he was still struggling to build a small restaurant in some areas, Kenzie already has a big name in one of the famous private companies in the city. Ah, she was jealous of her friend's good fortune.

Amara finally calmed down a lot after hearing her cousin's analysis.

Shame, "I'm not patient because I miss him too much, brother. We haven't seen each other in years so it's only natural that I want to stay close to him." Amara admitted with a timid face.

Sighing deeply, Amara climbed back to her bed and sat down obediently while talking to her cousin. Sometimes his eyeballs would glance towards the door, staring with eyes of anticipation waiting for the tall and handsome figure to enter his gaze.

"I understand your feelings. Believe me, he feels the same way about you. You didn't see how panicked Kenzie was when he found out you fainted. He yelled at his wife and chose to take you to the hospital. While his wife was left alone in the villa. Just think carefully, if you're not important to him, then why would he yell at his wife and prefer you?" Nabil continued to speak, repeating the same story, the story he had told Amara for two days.

Amara was not tired of hearing it. Many times or as much as her cousin told her this little passage, she never got bored and wanted to keep listening to it. He could not imagine how beautiful the scene was!

If only he had not fainted.

"I'm sure too, brother. After years apart I can't believe Kenzie didn't miss me. I'm sure feelings can change as time passes. And this year I came back to Indonesia because I had the confidence that my feelings would no longer clap one hand. Kenzie's gotta like me." He said confidently.

At first it was still pessimistic because when he saw Azira's beautiful face, he hesitated that Kenzie would reciprocate his feelings. But when he heard stories from Nabil and other friends about the incident, his confidence immediately skyrocketed.

Huh, his efforts were not in vain.

"But I'm very upset, brother. From this morning I tried to meet him and even knocked on his door many times, but he was always busy and had no time to meet me. Fortunately after the doctor's examination last afternoon, I immediately rushed to block his new path out of the room of one of the patients. He had a chat with me for a while before he went back to work!" He was angry and happy.

It was fortunate that he managed to intercept Kenzie as he exited the room of one of the patients. He wanted to have lunch with Kenzie and had prepared a lot of lunch for the two of them. But it's a pity that Kenzie doesn't have the time. After exchanging a few words for a while, Kenzie immediately left to continue his work.

"Well... How could he be so busy at rest? He should have rested and had lunch with me!" Fatty muttering.

The food he had prepared had gone to waste. Amara was not lustful and asked someone to throw it away. Ah, how upset he is.

"There's definitely another time, deck. You need to be more patient." Nabil's advice is back to sleep.

He wants to go to sleep again! For two nights in the hospital, he could not sleep comfortably. The first night Amara continued to complain of pain in his body and made Nabil wake up several times. But after a day in the hospital, Amara's condition improved but that does not mean his mood improved. He's so nervous about Kenzie that he's never seen the trunk of his nose. Nabil is like a nanny he made.

Presumably he was upset to also see Amara's attitude that had not changed over the years. Except for the beautiful face, Amara has a very bad impression. No wonder Kenzie refused to accept the love of his cousin's sister.

"Sir Nabil also dong's effort. Call Kenzie here. Just tell him I want to thank him." Amara hurriedly urged her cousin to act.

Amara had no idea that Kenzie had ignored Nabil for a long time.

Nabil's ashamed, "later tonight I'll call him again. I hope he can come here." Nabil's promise is not optimistic.

Amara nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, I hope. If Kenzie keeps busy, I might come to his house." Bisik Amara is determined.

*****

"Son, you're home." Umi was talking to Arumi's aunt in front of the house.

When he saw his son's car enter the courtyard, he immediately stood up and approached Kenzie.

"Yes, Umi." Kenzie smiled gently at Umi while kissing her hand.

But Umi's expression was not correct. Umi grunts, turns her face and walks back to Aunt Arumi. Umi looks angry Kenzie thought. He scratched his head not itching because he was confused about what had made Umi angry. Could it be that he had made a mistake that drew Umi's anger?

Kenzie is not sure.

"Assalamualaikum, aunt." Kenzie greets Aunt Arumi politely and kisses her hand.

Aunt Arumi smiled broadly.

"Girishalah, Kenzie. Son, the more days auntie notices your face is getting handsome. With a face this handsome, could it be that there has been no home around you recently?" Ask aunt with implied meaning.

Just while chatting with his brother-in-law, he found out about Amara's return. Just like Umi, her reaction was furious. Secretly worried about his nephew's household.

Kenzie smiled foolishly. How could he possibly not be able to read the implied meaning conveyed by Aunt Arumi?

"There's a lot of foxes, auntie. It's okay, it's a trivial matter. How can a fox compare to a lazy cat in my house? Auntie knows the answer." Reply Kenzie with the same implied meaning.

Aunt Arumi laughed out loud at what her niece said. She could not imagine Azira with the lazy cat that Kenzie meant. Ah, but wait a minute, did not his brother-in-law say that some days Azira prefers to fall asleep and start lazy to do activities?

So describing it with a lazy cat does feel fine. Cute and beautiful at the same time, make people feel at home at home.

"You know that the fox is still trivial, be careful the cat is not a generous creature. If you let her down, she could turn to another employer. By the way take good care of your cat, because lately I've seen a widower in our complex often go back and forth in front of this house when your cat is weeding the grass in the yard."

Umi and Kenzie reflexively looked at Aunt Arumi with a questioning look.

"Really?" Ask Kenzie flat.

Aunt Arumi nodded in earnest.

"I'm not lying. If my guess isn't wrong, maybe he's interested in your cat. So beware. You see, this widower is cool too. He was a lecturer at the campus where Sasa and Mona were studying. Not bad according to aunty, even though she is a young widower and has a good career. Rarely is there a widower as good as this." Aunt Arumi was still talking, whether intentional or not, she frightened Kenzie.

Kenzie breathed a cold breath.

"Is my cat... Do you realize that someone is watching you often?"

Aunt Arumi shrugged her shoulders not knowing.

"Why not ask your cat?"

Kenzie smiled wryly. After the mistake made yesterday, he doubted whether Azira would still want to talk to him again.

"Alright aunt, I'll go in first. Thanks for the aunt's information today. If the aunt needs seeds of good fruit plants, the aunt can pick them up in the back garden. Coincidentally there are some seeds that I have not had time to plant because it is too busy in the back garden, fearing that the seedlings will be damaged if left to linger so why did auntie not take some to plant at home?" Kenzie said generously.

Aunt Arumi was thrilled to hear Kenzie's offer. Who wouldn't want the lips of the plant in Kenzie's hands?

Because all the plants that Kenzie grows are imported and high-quality plants. Especially for fruits, the seeds must be very good.

"Ah... It just so happens that your uncle recently wanted to plant something in the front yard. Fortunately you reminded so he wouldn't bother looking for a good seedling outside."

Kenzie nodded in understanding, "guys just pick it up behind. Then I'll go in first."

After making small talk with Arumi's aunt, she went straight into the house.

Umi saw her son's strapping back move away, after disappearing from the sight of her eyes, she immediately asked Aunt Arumi.

"Is what you were talking about right?"

Aunt Arumi nodded seriously, "Sir should see it from the CCTV, the widower seemed interested in Azira."

Umi took a breath,"Huh, let it go. Who told him to make my son-in-law sad." Umi doesn't care.

Meanwhile inside the house Kenzie immediately went to find his wife. His footsteps were in such a hurry to go up the floor to the second floor. She thought her cat was currently lazing on the bed. When he opened the door, he found no one. Kenzie was panicking. He tried to call his girlfriend's name but there was no response. When in the usual time he would not panic. But the problem is that they're in a fight because of Amara. And Kenzie was afraid that his wife would do something harmful to him.

"Azira?" Kenzie.

There was no one in the bathroom. He anxiously walked to the balcony. Looking down his eyes were immediately fixated staring at the skinny body that was asleep while sitting on a park bench.

"You freaked me out.." smiling helplessly, Kenzie hurriedly brought his footsteps out of the room, yet just opening the door, he suddenly turned around to pick up a thin blanket from inside the closet.

Tap

Tap

Tap

His heavy footsteps resounded loudly within the house. It slowly became light as the distance with Azira got closer. When setting foot in the back garden, a gentle and soothing breeze immediately hit his handsome face.

When he finally arrived right in front of his wife, Kenzie lowered his body looking gently at the beautiful figure of his wife who always shadowed his sleepless nights, and being the first woman to make him feel how much pain regret it was.

"Honey," Call Kenzie in such a soft voice.

It almost sounds like a plea.

Azira did not respond at all. His sleep is so good and peaceful here. He showed no signs of discomfort from sleeping in a place like this.

"Darling," Call Kenzie again as he raised his big hand to touch his wife's slightly fleshy pale face than before.

Umi had told him that Azira's appetite had recently diminished. And yesterday he also saw with his own two eyes how Azira was reluctant to eat any delicious food on his plate.

The logic if you do not want to eat Azira must be losing weight and getting thinner. But the fact is that Azira looks more and more.... Fatted?

Her long fingers rubbed gently on Azira's beautiful face, removing some of the naughty hairs that came out of the hijab.

"Murray..." Azira moans uncomfortably in her sleep.

Her eyelids fluttered, staring blankly at the handsome face of her husband who was now looking at her with a very gentle gaze. For a moment Azira forgot how to blink. Ah, or rather he was reluctant to blink his eyes for fear that this handsome face suddenly disappeared from his sight.
