My husband Tajir & Arogan (Season 1)
CHAPTER XI

The ceremony has been completed, the invited guests have left the church Santani. Rafael lives with his wife and parents. Rafael did not ask Jodhi for help to drive them back to the hotel. He prefers to drive his own car to bring his new family.

Arriving at the Aston hotel, Rafael and Delia deliver Derry and Emili to their room. Although previously Delia's parents continued to refuse to be delivered to her room. But the hardness of Rafael's heart is certainly difficult to refute. They all look very tired because of the blessing event earlier.

"Father and mother rest enough, Delia is afraid that you will get sick later," said Delia when they were in front of the room.

"We're fine, son, but look at your own face. You're the one who looks so tired" replied Emili.

"True Delia, it's you who needs rest" said Derry.

Rafael looked at his wife's face, and Delia looked more tired than her parents.

"Ehm... You should all rest, we are all equally tired. Dad, mom... Can I take my bride home now?" ask Rafael.

Delia's face flushed, could Rafael call her my bride in front of her parents. It really makes that woman ashamed.

Emili chuckled amusedly, "of course Rafael... Delia is already yours, so there is no need for permission from us, because our duties as her parents have now been replaced by her husband" Emili replied.

Derry smiled, "Delia is your rightful wife, of course she has to follow wherever her husband is."

"Dad.. mother..why do you say that," said Delia with a reddened face.

Both Delia and Rafael's parents laughed.

"Oh yes... father and mother should not live in Jakarta alone? if you agree, I'll buy you two a house here" Rafael said.

"No need to son. We are happy to live there, our big family is there too," declined Derry, "it is better tomorrow we go back home, which is important Delia we have given you, please take care of Delia and if you miss us, often come back to see us" he added.

"You're going home so soon?" tanya Delia arrived sad.

Seeing the sadness on Delia's face, Rafael could not bear to see it.

"Heeem, baby. I've asked your parents to stay here as you wish, but they refused. Don't blame me, and don't look sad like this, I promise I'll take you home a lot" Rafael said.

Delia was surprised to hear Rafael say, "when I told her to ask my father and mother to stay here, didn't she take the initiative herself? You arrogant man, he doesn't want to be ashamed of being rejected" he thought.

"True Del, don't be sad. Our distance is not too far" said Derry.

"You can get on your husband's plane to visit us quickly" Emili said.

"You take it easy, mine now belongs to Delia. So he is free to use whatever facilities I have" Rafael said.

"His is mine, if only it were real. This marriage is just a temple, not until when he kept me," Delia thought again.

"Dad and mom sure you don't want to live with Delia in Jakarta?" ask Delia.

"Don't love.we stay in Bandar Lampung only and you have to continue your studies, be happy with your husband," said Emili while hugging Delia.

Delia suddenly cried in the arms of her mother, Emili was unable to hold back her tears. Both equally sobbing makes Derry and Rafael actually shake their heads.

"O dear God, I have no intention of separating you, so stop crying," Rafael's tease made Derry chuckle.

Both of them let go of his embrace.

"Tomorrow mom and dad will be home at what time? I'll come straight here, if my job is done," Rafael said.

"Did Rafael not take leave after marriage?" ask Emili.

"There's an urgent job before I leave ma'am" replied Rafael.

"In that case there is no need to pick us up, we can take a bus to the port" said Derry.

Rafael shook his head, "you are now my parents, so I have to take you to the airport and get on my plane. Don't refuse," he said firmly.

"True Rafael yeah, ma'am. You guys go home and wait for Delia to come home from college. Delia was too long absent from college, Delia forgot to ask for college leave" said Delia.

Rafael swerved, he forgot that Delia was still in college. He forgot to ask for a college leave for his wife.

"Well then, we will wait for your arrival" replied Emili and received approval from her husband.

"If you need something just call the hotel, or call Mr. Jodhi," Rafael said, handing over his assistant's business card.

They nodded back. Rafael and Delia say goodbye and leave the two at the Aston hotel.

*****

Throughout Delia's journey continues to be moody, the woman's attitude makes Rafael confused. Several times Rafael cleared his throat but Delia remained unmoved.

"I'm really a wife, but this is just a dream. I'm just waiting for my wake-up time until my dreams are gone" Delia thought.

The woman kept turning her face out the window of her car.

Again Delia flinched.

"Come, baby..want until when do you keep ignoring me like this?" ask Rafael.

Delia turned her head, then looked at Rafael sharply.

"I thought you had solved your problem with your fiancee, it turns out that I was humiliated earlier, even though our marriage was just a charade, but you should have solved it anyway" said Delia.

"Sorry Delia, yesterday I was really busy taking care of important company documents, before Firdaus handled it. I don't want the company that I built so hard, to be ruined in the hands of a useless person. And you should know, our marriage is not a charade. How many times have I told you, I want you, I want this marriage" replied Rafael.

"Ciii... It turns out that the company is more important than me" Delia murmured.

Rafael let out a long sigh, "first, I am indeed guilty of the matter of Katrina. Second, my company is our future. Thirdly, this had nothing to do with which was more important Delia. I did it for us" Rafael said, holding back his emotions.

"So you'd rather have your wife humiliated like that" Delia said resentfully.

Suddenly Rafael stepped on the brakes. Fortunately, there was no other vehicle behind them.

"What did you say?" ask Rafael.

Delia was terrified, she thought it had provoked Rafael's anger.

"A..a...WHAT...?" delia asked nervously.

But Rafael suddenly smiled widely making Delia frown. His anger vanished when he heard Delia say the word "your wife".

"I was happy to hear your confession just now" replied Rafael.

"Confession?" ask Delia.

As Delia widened her eyes, she involuntarily said she was Rafael's wife. Seeing Delia's facial expression, Rafael finally laughed.

"You stopped suddenly just because of that? You crazy man," Delia grumbled.

Rafael laughed again, because the sound of the car horn was heard in the back, Rafael stepped back on the accelerator and continued his journey.

"I don't like anyone insulting you, humiliating you or bothering you. You take it easy, baby, I'm going to destroy the people who did it" Rafael said.

Rafael's words really calm him, but as their journey to the big house Widjaja getting closer. The calm was again destroyed, Delia's face began to turn pale for fear of having to face the Widjaja family, especially her father-in-law.

*****

Rafael's phone is ringing. He immediately saw the screen of his phone. It turned out that the detective he hired contacted him that quickly. Rafael smiled as he picked up his phone.

"Go to the point" said Rafael.

"Young master, I've already discovered the existence of the middle-aged woman, and found out who is the mastermind of all these matters," the detective replied.

Rafael looked towards Delia. He didn't want the woman to know what he was doing.

"Tomorrow we meet in the usual place" Rafael said, hanging up.

Delia wondered who had contacted Rafael, but she did not want to ask.

Arriving at Widjaja's mansion. The two got out of his car, Rafael immediately pulled Delia's hand and grasped it gently.

"Stay with me no matter what happens, do not be afraid. I'll protect you, baby" said Rafael.

Delia nodded her head. Rafael's hand he did not let go because he was really afraid at this time. Rafael clasped his wife's hand tighter, knowing that Delia was terrified of the coldness of her hand. With a certain step, Rafael brought Delia back into his house.

Praaaannggg...

The sound of throwing goods was very loud towards them, fortunately Rafael immediately dodged and protected Delia. Hartanto Widjaja was already waiting for their arrival with his fierce face.

"Fuckin' son really won't listen to me" cried Hartanto wrathfully.

Rafael gnashed his teeth, "if my wife gets hurt, I won't let you" he shouted.

"I'm your father, you're more defending that cheap woman."

"Bringing a new wife, a week after losing my mother, can I still think of you as a father" Rafael snapped.

"You...!" hartanto shouted while holding his chest that began to clench.

Rafael clenched his hands, he let Helena take care of her father. After seeing the man unable to argue with him anymore, Rafael did not care anymore. He pulled Delia's hand towards their room.
