Married Without Love
More Perfect

"Why should we come with you to the city?" Ben asked, two days after their detention at the local police station.

"We will process your crimes at the headquarters. All files have been submitted to it" replied Ed.

"Ben..." Zaki said in panic. Hearing Zaki's headquarters feeling spooky. It was as if their crimes had to be paid with severe punishment.

"We want the case settled here" Ben refused.

"The victim, Faya Ayunda Carter, must undergo an examination immediately. You know, you're endangering the contents" Desis Ed.

"We didn't know she was pregnant" tweeted Zaki.

"Therefore do not argue" Ed said sharply.

"Ed, all ready!" Tria said from her phone.

"We're leaving now"

"What's? Now?" Zaki shouted in panic. Ben could only be quiet.

When they got out of the police station. Three cars are waiting. Not a police car. But a CRV car that looks so fancy in Zaki's eyes. I don't know why Ben isn't. It was as if he was used to the sight.

A moment later Ben was stunned to see Aya who was walking beside Annelka. Wearing a blue knee-length loose dress. Makes Aya look so pretty.

"I hope you don't act during the journey" Annelka said. He almost hit Ben. Hugged the man. But he has to hold back. Until the DNA test is completed. Because as they suspected. Ben doesn't remember his past.

"I'm the one in charge. I was caught, which means that the time has come for me to take responsibility for all my actions" Ben replied.

"Good then"

"Until you meet at home, Brother" Aya said ambiguously. Ben and Zaki look at each other. When Ben and Zaki will get in the car. Seeing that, Santi who came approached Aya.

"Santi...." Whisper Ben. Just for a moment Santi spoke to Aya and left. When Santi was about to leave, he was surprised to see Ben in the car. For a moment the two eyes met with a look. I don't know what the two people felt. But Aya had seen that moment.

The car started to run. Santi and Ben had to cut off their eye contact.

"Why do you call him, brother?" Annelka protest.

"And he's your brother"

"Not necessarily"

"You said it yourself, if no one else would wear the same necklace as you but your brother"

"But everything has to be proven first. He'll be ge er again" Grutu Annelka.

"Ay, you understand me?" Ask Ed from the driver's seat.

"What?"

"He's jealous of his own brother" Seloroh Tria

"Gosh..that's right Ann?" Ask Aya. But Annelka refused to answer. Choose to look at the view outside the window.

"I suggest you don't have a home with him. Otherwise, you'll be dizzy with his jealousy"

"He has his own house"

"That's if it proves he's your brother. If not, while waiting for the results of DNA out. He'll stay at your house"

"You're kidding, aren't you, Ed?" Ask Annelka.

"No. I seriously. The status is no longer suspect. Aya refused to report it. So he'll stay at your house, while the process goes on"

"Alamak" Annelka said unconsciously.

"He's your brother"

"If it's true. But beyond that he remains a man" protested Annelka.

"Then?"

"Tell them to stay at Farris' house. Tell momong the twins"

"Just boy. The twins' brains will be criminalized as a danger"

"Just like Ann, don't you miss her for 10 years and now there's hope that she's your sister. It's a gift" Tria said.

Annelka was silent at the words of her best friend.

"I wonder why your mother gave you a necklace like this" Aya showed a necklace around Annelka's neck.

"That's a women's necklace"

"My mom's upset at Papa could just print us out. Boy. He protested, because there was nothing to be invited to shopping and other feminine activities. That's why he made us this necklace. Aaron and I almost threw it away. If Mama doesn't whine asking us to wear it. He said that apart from our wives, no one knew that we were wearing this necklace. And Aaron was very obedient. She wears this necklace everywhere" Annelka recalls.

"Then I'm the one wearing it. It's a women's necklace" Aya asked.

"Oh, yes, you're wearing it" Annelka took off her necklace and put it on Aya's neck. Who immediately sumringah when he saw the band.

"Beauty, wash my clothes" Guman Aya was happy.

"Then about the crime that Ben committed first how's the story going?"

"We'll see later. You see Ben and his cs are just robbing without hurting. And their loot was a million at most" replied Ed.

"But they took Cartier with my Philippe Patex" complained Aya.

"Yes yes, twice as much. Ahh, I want a Rolex that's Day White"

"That's a little for him. Just don't ask me.I'm not strong..." Ed Guman.

"Your Ed" Maki Annelka.

"I miss you guys" Tria joked.

"It's only been a week" Aya replied casually.

"Kayak aja couple. A week of no revenge" Tria said.

"That's worth a try. And you're Ann, you have to fast first" Ledek Ed. Makes Annelka snort annoyed.

They laughed out loud. Really this week they are like people who have heart spots. Fear if news surprises them. Or nothing happens to the two people who are now sitting leaning tired in the back seat.

A moment of silence covered the car.

"What's he sleeping? How lonely" asked Ed who was focused on his drive.

"Sleep. Exhausted perhaps" Annelka answered kissing the top of Aya's sleeping head leaning against her chest.

The man was so grateful, to be able to find Aya. I could hang out with the woman he loved so much. Plus their child.

It was almost noon, when the three cars entered the parking lot of the hospital owned by Farris. And Aya really did not expect that Farris and the others were already waiting for them in front of the lobby.

As soon as the woman stepped down. Eva hugged her best friend tightly. With tears flowing non-stop.

"I'm fine, Va" replied Aya hugging Eva back.

"I'm really worried about you. I couldn't sleep well this week" Eva said.

"That's because Tria doesn't fuck you" Ed chirps who was immediately hit by Eva's jewel.

"Bas based on a wicked son-in-law!"

"Aduuhhhh, forgive mother-in-law" replied Ed spontaneously. Ed's answer made Eva strengthen her jewelry even more.

"Ahh yes wrong, brother-in-law" Ed corrected his call. Everyone heard Ed's call on Eva. Eva immediately let go of her jewel to Ed as soon as the man changed his call.

"Busyet has a history in my life. I lost to two women. One of his own. The one's brother-in-law" Gerutu Ed. There was laughter in front of the lobby. Ben and Zaki look at each other when they find out they were taken to the hospital.

"Why go to the hospital?" Whisper Zaki.

"Faya wants to check the contents" Reply Ben.

"That's him. What are we doing?" Zaki asked back.

A nurse approached them.

"Please come with me, Mr. Ben and Mr. Zaki"

"For what?"

"You're gonna do a blood test. Before returning. Meet me Farris" Farris introduced himself.

"It's just for formality. Don't worry" Tria added.

In the end, the two men could only leave. When a nurse takes a sample of their blood.

"Is that enough?" Annelka asked Farris who was carrying a sample of Ben's blood.

"Very enough. Well let's see, is he Aaron or just similar to you" Farris replied.

"Take this to Prof Martini. Say a special case from doctor Farris Anderson" Farris orders a nurse to pass right in front of Farris.

"How long?"

"Fast week"

"Aiishhh, you want to kill me with curiosity huh"

"Well, how else? You won't die if you just wait a week. Ten years you've been through so easily"

"Easy saying? Let me show you my version of the word easy" Annelka curled Farris' neck until the man felt tight.

"How does it feel?"

"Tomorrow, Ann"

"That's what I feel. And you said it was easy. I almost died, as long as you know" cried Annelka.

Farris breathed a lot.

"But you came back to life when you met Aya" said Farris. Annelka was silent for a moment.

"Yes, you're right. That's why I came back to life"

"And now we just have to wait for the results of the DNA test, and your life will at least be more perfect"

"You're right. More perfect"
