Not an Ordinary Widower
Chapter 42 The Hatred of Kenzo

As the days went by, Kenzo was less and less in his home. He was avoiding Levia. He rarely went home and stayed overnight in his office.

That's what makes Kenzo's parents wonder about Kenzo's madness at work. They always nagged Kenzo to get home on time and not leave his wife at home alone.

"Ken, why are you suddenly out of work like this?" ask Venita and Antonio when it comes to visiting Kenzo's office.

"There's a lot of work Ken has to do" Ken replied without taking his eyes off the files he was working on.

"But you should pay attention to your wife Ken. Levia you live alone at home. Don't you want to be with him? Aren't you tired of just meeting these papers?" Venita nags Kenzo in the typical style of mothers nagging their children.

Kenzo didn't answer, he was focused on his work. And that made Venita grow furious.

"How can you give us grandchildren if you are more concerned about your work?" ask Venita back by covering the file Kenzo read using the map on the table.

Kenzo turned his attention away from the papers and looked at the face of his mother who was really angry with him.

"Calm down Ma. Mama will hear some amazing news. But... Ah come on, let me work now Ma. Mama and Papa just have to wait for news from Mama's daughter-in-law later," said Kenzo with a slanted smile at Venita and Antonio.

"What do you mean Ken? Is Levia pregnant?" asked Venita enthusiastically.

Kenzo returns to show his smirk. He couldn't say anything to his parents. Right now he felt very foolish to be in this state.

"Mama and Papa should wait for the news at home until it comes from the mouth of the daughter-in-law. And please Ma, Pa, we're all grown up and married. Please don't take care of our household. And don't forbid Ken to keep working hard with Ken's work" Ken said by looking alternately at the faces of his mom and dad.

"Ken, we're just advising you. Mama you always protest if Papa is late to go home. So Papa wants you not to work too hard and go home on time for-"

"Is Papa afraid that Ken's company is superior to Papa's?" kenzo asked with a smile to interrupt his father's words.

"You're Ken, you know Papa's even being ridiculed. Never mind Ma, let's leave the child who won't budge" said Antonio, holding onto Venita's shoulders to help her stand up from her seat.

"We go home to Ken. And remember your wife, don't just remember your job. Don't forget to give us a cu-"

"Will Ken remember Ma" Kenzo said to interrupt his mother's words about grandchildren.

After both of his parents came out of the room, Kenzo gripped the paper he was holding and threw it in any direction. His heart was furious again hearing the name Levia that entered the senses of his listeners.

He never hated people like that. The wound given by Levia was not just a mere scratch, it seemed as if it was deeply penetrating Kenzo's heart and mind.

The busyness that Kenzo has been applying in his daily life aims to forget his problems at home by focusing on his work.

However, now the reality was again presented by his mother and father in front of him, so Kenzo again remembered the bitterness of his household.

Drrr.t...

Kenzo's mobile vibration distracts him from what he's working on.

The lift of his phone is listed by the name of Bik Narmi on the screen of his phone.

Sir, Madam has a fever, I am worried about her content, said Bik Narmi from across the street.

"I'm busy Bik. It's better that Bibik takes care of it as usual" Kenzo said in annoyance.

But sir, I'm worried

"Already Bik, don't take my time with such insignificant affairs. Just take him to the hospital or something, whatever. Just bother."

Kenzo interrupts Narmi's speech and immediately turns off his phone when the words are finished.

Kenzo is upset again, he can't focus on his work. He immediately walked to the room in his room. He stayed there again tonight. And that night also bik Narmi had to take care of Levia who was having a fever at home.

Both of Kenzo's and Levia's parents really never met Levia. Kenzo never forbade Levia from meeting them. It was just that Levia herself chose not to meet him.

Levia had always shied away if they wanted to meet her. There was only a reason he gave when they wanted to meet him. And if they come to see him at Kenzo's house, Levia always hides in her room. Bik Narmi was the one who always helped her so they wouldn't find her.

Levia was not ready to meet them. She didn't want them to know she was pregnant. He didn't want to if they thought the boy was Kenzo's son. Because it was certain that Kenzo would be very angry with him if they thought the boy was Kenzo's son.

"Sir, thank you for your help all this time. I don't know what my fate would be if no aunt helped me. Again, thank you Bik." said Levia, smiling at Narmi's bik and rubbing her stomach.

Bik Narmi smiled, then he rubbed Levia's enlarged stomach and just waited for her birth.

"Sir, I know there are actually a lot of questions that Bibik wants to ask. Surely Bibik did not dare to ask us," said Levia with a sincere smile at bik Narmi.

Bik Narmi just looked at Levia with a look of sadness. He was unable to question all the questions he wanted to know all along.

"Bik, actually this kid is not Kenzo's kid. And we'll get divorced after this child is born" Levia said, holding Narmi's arms.

Of course, Narmi was very surprised. He widened his eyes in shock at Levia's words. What he had expected all along was true. He is very concerned about Kenzo, but he cannot blame Levia who he thinks is also a good woman as long as he knows her.

Bik Narmi was silent, he was waiting for Levia to speak to him again. Levia tells her everything that happened, starting from her pregnancy, her marriage and the end of her agreement with Kenzo.

Levia's tears accompany her story on Narmi's bik. With her smile it was able to cover up her sadness, only her tears were already unable to hide.

"Then, what is the girlfriend of the Madam...I mean the father of this child knows if the Madam is pregnant with her child?" ask Bik Narmi curiously.

"He knows Bik. He will marry me when this child is born and I am divorced from Kenzo" Levia replied smilingly imagining herself, her son and the father of the baby together.

Bik Narmi smiled looking at Levia who was smiling happily saying so. He rubbed Levia's stomach gently.

"Darkl. aaaah... Bik, it seems..it seems...."

Levia holds her stomach while moaning in pain makes Narmi's sister who did not come home that night because she accompanied Levia in her house to panic.
