Zalfa immediately turned his gaze away from Faisal as the man stared at him. Then Zalfa moved his face closer to Arkhan's face. He whispered, “I let go of my past. I've even given it all up for you. I'm only yours. You are free of me. Point. What else is lacking? Does that not prove my sincerity enough? Are you satisfied to have slapped Faisal with a piece of chicken? Your anger is avenged. Congratulations!”
Zalfa stood up leaving his plate still and left the table. He was forced to turn the crossings in order not to pass through Faisal's table even though the distance of the door became further because of it. He was very confused what to say to Faisal over a piece of chicken that flew flying over the man's cheek.so he chose to stay away from Faisal rather than bear the shame.
Zalfa entered the car. Sit on the side of the wheel. Seconds passed and Arkhan had yet to appear. What exactly is Arkhan doing? Could Arkhan continue eating without responding to Zalfa's annoyance at leaving the dinner table before the rest of the food runs out? Or maybe Arkhan even approached Faisal and talked a lot with Faisal. Waduh drugged! What if there is a commotion at the restaurant.
Zalfa held the door handle of the car down and returned to the restaurant, but his movement stopped when he felt the swing of the car and he glanced at Arkhan who was sitting at the steering wheel. The man stomped the door shut it.
Zalfa turned his face out of the window to look away. He was upset with Arkhan because of his stubbornness the man who could not believe his words. How else should he explain? Being accused of playing with another man is very painful. Although Zalfa was aware, Arkhan's attitude was not without reason. Faisal was a past time for Zalfa, and even Arkhan knew very well how Zalfa still loved the man when he was married to Arkhan. Naturally Arkhan behaved like that. Only, Zalfa did not like being accused.
Along the way, the two of them remained silent. Arkhan seemed to focus on driving without saying anything. Zalfa was silent. His neck may be sprained due to constantly turning left, precisely to the outside of the car.
Arkhan just shut up. But he turned his car on the road to Zalfa's cafe.
Arriving at the cafe, Zalfa immediately entered the cafe leaving Arkhan sitting sweetly in the car. He put the bag on the cashier's desk. He sat in a chair and looked around the cafe. It was still a bit early in the morning so the cafe was not as crowded. Only three tables filled with visitors. Zalfa was surprised to see Arkhan entering the cafe, the man sat at one of the tables then stuffed juice at the waiter.
Inner Zalfa smiled to see Arkhan who turned out to be entering the cafe. Arkhan, you know, if he leaves, uh he's waiting at the cafe. If this is the way, Zalfa is getting clumsy to work. Where maybe she was busy working and being indifferent to her husband. It will look bad in the eyes of everyone who sees it.
Zalfa finally chose to enter his study, a small room for himself. Shortly after, the door opened again. Arkhan came in. The man approached Zalfa, slightly bowed his body and placed both of his palms onto the Zalfa side table.
