Mahram To Azira
Chapters 25.4

Kenzie snorted not happy to hear it.

"My wife, fix what you're saying. You never ruined my marriage with her, but you saved me from her instead. If it wasn't for an arranged marriage, I wouldn't have intended to marry her. But thank goodness God saved me through you, my real fiancee and now my beloved wife. Then the good news is that in a few months you will have the title of a Mother, is this not a gift from Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala for both of us?"

Kenzie can't explain it, maybe it's all because of God's destiny. When Kenzie meets other women, he feels very conflicted and is not tempted to approach them, however beautiful they may be or as good as their family background. Even once a woman graduated boarding school who no doubt his knowledge came close. But Kenzie never moved his heart to approach the woman. And at that time he always thought that maybe he would never feel love in this world, so resignedly just forced to marry Humairah in the name of matchmaking.

But when she meets Azira for the first time, which is the day Azira is about to be kidnapped, her heart feels a thrill and she has little interest in Azira. And it is not wrong if Kenzie says that Azira is the first woman who is able to move her heart.

If contemplated now, perhaps all Kenzie's rejection of the women was a form of God's help to him. God keeps his heart from being tempted by any woman until finally met with his soul mate, Azira Humaira, wife and future mother of his children.

"This is God's grace, but I prefer to call it the sweet fruit of my patience, mas."

Kenzie smiled broadly. His heart always warms with a sweet taste every time he sees his wife's beautiful smile. Um, no longer called beautiful but rather beautiful. Kenzie prefers to call everything related to his wife a form of beauty.

"Whatever it is, this is God's help for both of us. We should both always be grateful, okay?"

Azira nodded obediently.

"I understand, mas. Can we go in now? I'd like to see if the real-world offices are the same as the ones on TV." Azira was already impatient and wanted to go inside immediately.

Being overzealous he unwittingly forgot about the topic about his father. Ah, or maybe more precisely he doesn't care anymore. After all, she was now living happily with her husband and family, a happiness that was rarely met by people out there, which is why she was so grateful for what she had today.

Kenzie chuckles. His right hand naturally wrapped around his wife's slender waist.

"Okay, let's go. Husband will satisfy his wife's curiosity." Kenzie Goda.

Azira laughs.

"Well.yah... My husband is very obedient."

Then they both walked towards the entrance of the company. Before actually going inside, Kenzie swept his gaze at the tiny Black-and-white company there, then withdrew his gaze without showing any abnormalities.

...*****...

Kenzie takes Azira around several rooms in the company. He did not dare to take her all over the floor because it was so exhausting. So he introduced her to a public place where the employees gathered, then to where the employees worked and rested, then finally took her to the company cafeteria.

During the tour Azira's eyes sparkled brightly staring here and there as if she had discovered a different world. The look is very funny and often makes Kenzie laugh. Ah... Blame his wife who was too cute, Kenzie couldn't wait to pinch her cheek but Azira would be angry if she did that in front of a lot of people. Huh... His wife was too shy.

"Gee... So this is Mr. Kenzie's wife, she's very pretty and has a sweet smile, can I idolize her?" The voices of several employees were discussing behind their backs.

Upon hearing the news of Kenzie's arrival with his wife, all the employees were overcome with tension. Their expectations if Kenzie was flat then his wife might be fierce. But who would have thought that their boss' wife looked so sweet and pure at the same time. Want to not want them to wonder and wonder, how can a wife as sweet as this juxtaposed with a flat man with minimal emotion?

"It's very strange. Look, Mr. Kenzie looks very obedient by his wife's side. And do you realize it, Mr. Kenzie smiled a few times. Why would I feel if Mr. Kenzie was a little silly today?"

"Hus.. Keep talking. If it is heard by Mr. Kenzie, you are finished." Someone reprimanding.

The person who spoke earlier shut his mouth in fear, but a few seconds later he laughed sillyly. Actually he was not afraid because he was sure Kenzie would not do strange things to them because there was Azira here.

"But by the way, I heard that Mr. Kenzie should have married another woman. But because of an accident, he was forced to marry his current wife." Someone started to gossip.

Anybody doubt,"Forced? Did ya? Why do I see that Mr. Kenzie seems to be crazy about his wife?"

"Yes, it's forced. I heard his future wife named-"

"Remoride again?" Someone's voice interrupted their conversation.

When they saw who had spoken earlier, their faces stiffened and did not dare to say a word.

That person glanced at the woman who dared to raise the gossip of the past and watched her with an eye of judgment, "Don't spread any untrue gossip if you still want to work here. Our company does not need unfaithful employees, even to the point of daring to gossip about its own boss, we do not need employees who do not have ethics." Said the man cold.

The woman who spoke earlier was very embarrassed and scared. Because this person is one of Kenzie's beliefs in this company. You could say as an outside secretary. His job is to settle matters outside the company. Because of his position as Kenzie's confidant, the employees were very reluctant to him. He is also unfriendly and does not like to smile as much as Kenzie. So that their impact on this person increases to become an unapproachable person.

"If you're sorry, sir. We don't mean to gossip about Mr. Kenzie's private life." One by one began to apologize to the man.

The guy snorted.

"You need to know that the boss and the mistress have been engaged since they were children, and the previous marriage that you referred to as an accident was indeed an accident, but the truth is the bride who should have married Mr. Kenzie was the mistress and not another woman. You," that person pointed at one of the women who had a good impression of Azira.

"I, sir?"

"If rumors are not clear anymore in the company, your job is to spread what I say. Take it easy, this task also gives you a bonus so work on it carefully. But if until one day I still hear rumors that are unclear, I will look for you to ask for an explanation directly. Understood?" That person suddenly gave a very unreasonable task.

Spreading rumors?

It's very strange in a company. But since this person was his superior and at the same time their boss's confidant, he did not dare to refuse. Even secretly rejoicing because he will have an additional bonus. The salary will be more.

"Understand, I understand sir. You take it easy because I will complete this task cleanly and carefully." Sure the woman promised.

The man nodded his head satisfied. Then glancing at the woman who was spreading bad gossip, her eyes clearly showed a warning.

The woman who was stared at felt very uncomfortable. He squeezed both nervous hands, secretly blaming himself for talking a lot.

"Excuse me." After enough talking the man left.

"Oh God, that was so scary!" They all immediately heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the person's departure.

"Yuni, you are very lucky to have an extra job. Moreover, this job is very light and earned an additional bonus, I am very envious of your luck today." It turned out that the woman who was assigned to spread the rumor was Yuni.

Yuni had since first seen Azira had a very good impression and had said she wanted to idolize him. Perhaps because of this, Kenzie's confidant had a good impression on him.

"I'm also very surprised by this task." Yuni said as she stroked her chest pounding.

"Well, you're very lucky." Said the woman who started the bad gossip earlier.

"Just make this a lesson for you so you don't want to talk again in the future." Yuni said advising with good intentions.

The woman was angrily advised but when recalling the watchful gaze from that person, she immediately swallowed back her anger raw. No longer, he did not want to ruin his career because of the wild gossip he heard from others.

"Thank you for your advice, next time I'll control my mouth so you don't just talk again."

While they were engrossed in speaking, Azira was also immersed in his admiration.

"Hehehe.."

Azira glanced at her husband.

"What's Kenzie laughing at?"

Kenzie smiled deeply.

"It's nothing, my men have worked hard today." Kenzie said faintly.

Azira nodded not asking anymore. The matter of work was not his field so he was not interested in asking further.

"You must have been taught to watch Korean dramas by Mona and Sasa, right?" Kenzie is not happy.

Azira innocently nodded her head. There is nothing wrong with watching Korean dramas, after all, he watches to entertain himself in bored time.

"Yes, mas. Korean dramas are just as good Chinese dramas, quite entertaining." The word Azira adds fuel to Kenzie's heart.

Kenzie took a long breath.

"Mas Kenzie why?"

Kenzie shook his head helplessly.

"I will not ban you from watching Korean or Chinese dramas as long as you do not idolize them. If until one day I know you idolize their male actors, then the three of you will be finished by me." Kenzie said with a smile that was no longer referred to as a smile.

Azira grimaced at the vengeful gaze of her husband.

"It's just for entertainment... Not any more, my mom." Azira promises.

Kenzie smiled, he didn't say anything.

Awkwardly, "You want... Go straight to the office?"

"Are you satisfied looking around here?" Kenzie asked.

Azira was satisfied.

"Here you go, mas."

Kenzie switched to clasping his wife's left hand gently.

"Okay, let's go. In the office I've prepared some delicious meals for you."

...*****...

Standing in front of the mirror, Mona looked at her adorable face from crying too much. He took a deep breath while hypnotizing himself that this day would go better than the previous days.

"Don't be sad, Mona, it's all over. You have to be a strong woman. Be like Azira. He's brave and tireless, you have to be like him. God willing, someday the sun you have been waiting for will come to shine on your days. No matter whether your love claps one hand, the family that cannot understand you yet, and the lonely days that you live, remember that everything will not last. There are times when you will laugh out loud honestly without using a second face to cover up your bad mood. Okay, Mona! Let's spirit!" After hypnotizing herself with positive words, Mona again displayed her cheerful side.

He patted her face to get more excited.

"Today I have only one course, which is cultural anthropology. After that, I did not have any activities on campus. Um, I'm going to the bookstore home from college. Oh.tasks.tasks.." Mona searches for the papers she made yesterday on top of a pile of documents on unfinished tasks.

Today he will be collecting the task of cultural anthropology. The task is not too difficult because it relates to the culture around him.

"Well... Finally met." The paper then he put it in the map.

After securing the task, he picked up his sling bag on the table. Once again stand in front of a mirror to observe his appearance. There is nothing wrong with his appearance. Everything seemed okay, but somehow he always felt that something was lacking.

"Wear shoes already, socks already, a wide robe already, hijab also already. What is less? Tasks, new tasks I just go to the map. Ah... Astagfirullah. I forgot to wear a mask!" He said while patting his head.

He took the mask from inside the drawer. The usual mask with cream color, not too flashy nor too tacky, Mona felt that this mask fit. After getting the mask he put it in a bag. At times when needed he does not need to buy out.

"Okay, now go!"

Cclack

Incidentally when she opened the door of the room, Yana also just came out of her room with a clean and beautiful appearance. Mona just glanced at him briefly unwilling to say anything. The reason is that he is still angry with Yana and Tio, because because because of the two of them he quarreled with his parents.

Mona is disappointed in her parents but at the same time she blames herself for having a rather bad attitude towards both parents.

"At first, Mona." Who is Yana with a sweet smile on her face.

Mona nodded briefly. He immediately left after closing the door without making small talk to Yana.

Yana saw her sister's departure. He pouted, thinking up to when Mona would have this attitude to him. Is he tired of being criticized by others?

"Until when will Mona Gini's brother continue to be with me? Doesn't Mona have pity on mom and dad? They were tired of dealing with this kind of big sister." Yana shook her head not knowing what to say seeing Mona's stubbornness.

Though she took nothing from Mona's life, but why did Mona hate her so much?

Sighing helplessly, he then caught Mona down.

Where it's down. Under Mama has prepared breakfast. Mona doesn't want to eat breakfast at first, but she's hungry because last night she ate little and on the other hand she doesn't want a cold war with her parents, Mona feels guilty.

"Assalamualaikum, ma." Greetings Mona awkward.

He entered the dining room. Mom and Dad were waiting at the table to start breakfast.

Hearing his greetings, mama only glanced briefly before busily rearranging the food that was on the table. While the father from the beginning to the end was busy reading the newspaper. Mana does not know whether the father deliberately ignored him or because it was too drowning while reading the newspaper.

"Vaalaikumsalam. Where's your sister, Mona?"

Where had just sat in her chair, Mama had already inquired about Yana.

Mona lowered her head, hiding the jealousy that was implied in her eyes.

"So soon he's down." Answer Mona kalem.

Soon, Yana finally entered the dining room and greeted everyone with a sweet greeting. Her manners combined with her beautiful and innocent face made people feel comfortable nearby. Maybe this is the aura of people who have studied in boarding schools. They are filled with coolness and peace so that people find it difficult to turn away from them.

"Assalamualaikum, everyone!" Saying greetings, she came to my mother to kiss the back of her hand.

"Getishalight." Mama and dad answered.

Ever since Yana came to the dining room, Mona noticed that she immediately put away the newspaper in front of her and waited for Yana to come to her.

"Good morning, dear? How is your stomach better?" Ask Mama gently while rubbing the top of Yana's head.

Last night Yana's stomach suddenly hurt after coming home from Abah's house. After checking it turns out he was on the moon and happened to be the first day, that was the reason why his stomach mules.

"Morning, ma. Alhamdulillah Yana's stomach is better. The turmeric water that you made me last night is powerful, ma. After drinking I was immediately sleepy and could sleep well. Thank you, ma." Yana's story while flattering mom.

It is a fact that after drinking turmeric water made by my mother, her stomach pain began to decrease until she finally fell asleep. If you do not drink turmeric water, Yana does not know whether last night can sleep or not, so she is very grateful to her mother.

Mom was so glad to hear it.

"Alhamdulillah, you know that you are not relieved to hear it. After breakfast you drink turmeric water again, huh? Let the moon come smoothly." Coincidentally there's still water left over last night.

Mama deliberately kept it in the refrigerator in case if the stomach pain Yana did not go better.
