Not the Perfect Wife
315. S2 - Difficult
"Ivan, you see this! Soon I'll be a father, Afrin's pregnant!" khairi exclaimed with teary eyes. This time not for sadness, but for happiness.
"Congratulations, Sir."
The letter was about Afrin's pregnancy. Khairi is very happy, many times he kissed the photo of USG in his hand.
"Sir, can I go?" ask the office boy who was relieved because he did not lose his job.
"Eh, give me your account number. I'll send you a gift, I have no cash" Khairi interrupted as she opened her phone to transfer.
"No need, sir. I just send. I got paid already."
"It's okay. I'm happy now. Don't let me fire you for making me mad."
"Sorry, Sir. It's his number." The office boy had to show his account number. Only a few minutes later he got his notification. The man was surprised to see it so he almost fell. "Sorry, Sir. Didn't you send it wrong? It's very much possible you're wrongly pressing a zero?"
"What is the amount?"
"A hundred million, sir."
"That's right" Khairi said, still paying attention to the results of the USG in his hands.
"You out. It was indeed a gift for you" said Ivan, who was taken by the man.
The office boy came out feeling happy. He can meet all the needs of his son and wife after this. Moreover, yesterday his son asked for toys that he could not afford.
"Sir, I will return to my office" said Ivan who was not responded to by Khairi.
Ivan sighed and just passed by. It's also free to talk to people who are happy. The man sat in the front seat of Khairi's room and immediately opened his phone.
"Hello .. is done, miss. Thank you for making my job easier to deal with frustrated people" Ivan told the person across the phone.
"........."
"Good, Miss."
Ivan closed his phone and sighed. He is dizzy with people who like to punish themselves. The man knows how hard it is for young pregnant people. However, how else, they themselves are looking for disease.
Yasna had offered to cooperate, but Ivan was afraid that Afrin would be angry. Previously he had been threatened with using his wife, so it was better that the man was no longer involved with the affairs of his superior.
*****
While in the room, Khairi continued reading the letter sent by his wife.
Assalamualaikum says.
How are you, Mas? I want to give you happy news. You must have seen the results of the USG. That's our baby candidate.
Sorry, I forgot to tell you that I no longer take the Pill. I drove Nayla over to see how she was pregnant. I was so excited to see her that I decided to stop the Pill.
Yesterday there were so many problems that happened to us, that I forgot to tell you. According to my obstetrician, my age has now turned seven weeks. I hope we can be trustworthy parents.
I heard that you've made other people difficult. To the extent that someone complained to me, if it was all because of me. Doesn't that make me feel so guilty for making others difficult?
So a better human being, yes, Mas. Do not be easily provoked by emotions so that later, we can be more patient with children. It will require even more patience.
That's all I want to say. I will always pray for your good and our home.
Wife—Afrin
Khairi shed tears, she cried after reading the letter from the wife. The man also missed Afrin a lot. Even now Khairi wants to come to his father-in-law's house. However, he knew it was not the right choice.
Afrin wants the man to change for the better, so Khairi will. He also knew that all this time he could not resist emotions, now the man had to start learning. All this is also for the future of his family.
'For you and our children, I will do my best. I will serve your punishment sincerely. I will make sure when we meet later, I have become a better human being, ' Inner Khairi.
As he was thinking, he suddenly remembered something about what Afrin had written, about someone reporting to his wife. That means the woman has a spy in this company, so she can find out what happened, but who? Is it possible one of the people who was in the meeting room earlier or do-don't—
Never mind, Afrin doesn't want to think much more. Even if the woman knew who did it, it couldn't change anything. Right now all the man could do was become a better person. He put a letter from his wife on his desk drawer.
Khairi contacted one of the OB's to buy him a small frame. The man wanted to put a photo of his baby's USG there. Before that he took pictures to make memories and also to tell his mother about this happy news.
Khairi continued his work. This time the man started everything well because he had promised to be even better.
When it was time to get home from work, the man drove his car to the apartment where his mother and Laily lived. The two women already knew what had happened to Khairi's household. Although he had to lie a little so that his mother did not feel guilty.
"Well, really? So you're gonna be called grandma soon?" ask Nur enthusiastically.
"And I'll be called Auntie. I can't wait for his birth" said Laily.
"Yes, my brother is the same."
Khairi watched her mother and sister. He felt that there was something that both of them were hiding. However, when asked, both Bu Nur and Laily said fine.
They also talk about many things. Until it got late, Khairi came home.
"Mom, I'll go home first" said Khairi.
"Yes, shouldn't you just do it? It's late," said Nur.
"No, Mom, thank you. Assalamualaikum." Khairi kissed the back of Nur's hand and left the apartment.
Bu Nur and Laily let out a long sigh. They almost had a heart attack. Pretending is exhausting.
"Huh ... just be troublesome," muttered Laily while wiping his sweat.
"Sorry, yes, Ma'am, Laily" said someone while hugging Bu Nur, who else if not Afrin.
"It seems like for the next week, I have to really prepare my heart to be stronger" Laily said.
Afrin will stay there for a week. Bu Nur and Laily are actually very happy about it, but if Khairi comes, it makes them heart gymnastics like that. Both women knew about Afrin's pregnancy, but had to pretend to be surprised by the news.
"Yes, I'm sorry my dear sister" said Afrin, embracing her sister-in-law.
"But, I'm glad there is, Brother, here. I have a friend of his. It's a pity that you can't go anywhere" said Laily, making Afrin frown.
His sister-in-law told him that he could not go anywhere. The woman was afraid that Khairi would see her. As Ivan said, they love to torture themselves.
