One Night With Your Wife
Lost in silence

When Zavian says he's giving up, then that means there's nothing to fix anymore. As strongly as Mama Widya pleads, Zavian will never be willing to restore the situation as before.

“ Never take a grudge against Fabian,” said Mama Widya after the two debates ended in painful silence.

“ I never took revenge on him,” said Zavian with quivering lips.

Correct . She never held the slightest grudge against Fabian even though her brother had repeatedly hurt her heart. Perhaps because since childhood Zavian has been indoctrinated by both parents to be a good and supportive sister figure . So whatever the form of his wound, he will heal alone. She was injured, crying and then smiling again after getting rid of her pain . The more he grows up, the more he knows how to give up. 

“ I'm just disappointed with the attitude of Mama who never considered my feelings,” continued Zavian later.

“ Mama didn't mean that, Za. Mama just can't accept seeing your attitude pulling all the shares in our company just because Fabian joined there. Can't you believe that your brother has now changed ?” Mama Widya is still trying to find justification for all her attitudes. 

“ Trust is thin and fragile once, Ma. Once destroyed then do not expect everything will return to how it was,” said Zavian. 

“ Fabian has promised to change, he will not make another plague,” said Mama Widya.

“ Try to occasionally see from my side,” Og Zavian. His voice and gaze implied a great disappointment.” Or maybe it's too hard for Mama to do?”

Mama Widya wet her suddenly dry lips. There was a pain that made him unable to look at Zavian in a straight glance. Even their conversation ended there. 

Zavian chooses to ignore everything that demands his attention. His assistant called many times to tell him about the return in the sale of all his shares. Yudha also reported other news regarding the dealing of the cooperation they had just agreed to. And all of that didn't manage to steal Zavian's attention in the slightest. 

Zavian's only wish is to go home and see his wife. The rest, he didn't want to think about anything. Maybe because the contents of his head are too boisterous by all the problems that exist to make him like a confused person.

On returning home, Zavian finds Nayara playing with their son in the back garden. There was a smile rising on his lips when he saw how the scene managed to warm the corner of his heart. 

“ Daddy is home,” exclaimed Nayara while helping her son wave at Zavian. He walked up to Zavian while holding Zean.” Tumben home fast.” 

Zean moves into his father's lap and Zavian walks into the living room .

" My head hurts.”

“ I got medicine yes.”

“ Don't need , Darling . You know what is the most appropriate medicine for me.”

There was a brief ruckus from Nayara followed by Zavian. He kissed his son's face before being handed over to Nayara and eventually handed Zean over to the mother-in-law. After that, the two walked into the room. 

Nayara helps Zavian remove the buttons of his shirt until it is all open. After that Zavian lay down on the bed and Nayara lay down beside him. Zavian really likes how the smell of his wife's body can make his mind airy and the appearance of Nayara's fingers between his hair feels good. 

There was no conversation between them and Zavian was grateful for all Nayara's understanding towards him. 

For the past few months Zavian has always tried to forgive the wounds that are in him. Too bad, his entire business was destroyed just because of Mama Widya's attitude. The pain she was trying to heal was again dripping with wounds. Eventually Zavian decided to withdraw and surrender . He was no longer able to deal with all this.

Even so, when part of his life was shattered but on the other hand he also felt strong and fine. Among all the chaos in his life, Zavian has found a partner who complements himself perfectly. 

“ You mind if we go from here ?” ask Zavian then. 

“ I will come wherever you go,” said Nayara confidently.

Zavian nodded with a relieved smile. He realized that he was not walking alone at the moment. There's Nayara and Zeano hanging lives on him. He will always appear to be a great man in the eyes of his wife and son. Therefore, Zavian did not allow himself to drag on in grief. 

He got up to grab a cell phone and contacted his assistant as well as Yudha. The plan must go ahead and his efforts this time must not fail. Once again, Zavian assured himself that he had completely given up. 

As promised, Om Farhan announced his resignation as CEO of Raya Corp after Fabian joined there. The man seemed relaxed, he showed no sense of loss when he left the company that his late father-in-law had built. Likewise with Aunt Tania who deliberately picked up her husband on the last day of work. His usually ambitious face was now flat.

“ After this what will Om do ?” asked Fabian curiously. 

Fabian said nothing more. He felt that a heavy burden had now been resting on his shoulders alone. The only thing Fabian did was to exasperate. 

“ Fucking ! I should not have agreed to Mama's request to return here,” Fabian muttered .

He regretted it, but it was too late and everything was messed up. Zavian withdrew his entire stake and now Om Farhan is leaving the company. While Fabian is not that great to carry all this burden alone. 

Elsewhere, Zavian was conversing with Yudha in serious fashion . A lot of things they discussed about the future of the company and also the surprising steps taken by Zavian. Today will probably be their last meeting before Zavian actually leaves. 

“ So after a long time acting like a clown finally you give up too, yes .” Yudha said while chuckling. 

Zavian laughed as he stacked his hands on the table. His coffee was gone and he had no intention of smoking. 

“ I just ask you to keep this company well,” Zavian message. 

“ Sure,” answer Yudha .” I will definitely take good care of all this as it is a testament to the hard work of both of us.”

Zavian nodded small . He believed in Yudha because he had seen how her friend had worked all this time. After all, Zavian did not just leave everything to Yudha, there were still important things that he held even though he had withdrawn from the company.

“ How are they all ? Have you done it ?” ask Yudha again.

“ Already,” replied Zavian.

“ So, good luck . Hopefully this is the right decision and you can be happy living it,” Yudha said while patting slowly Zavian.” shoulder We have farewell . Lo have to say goodbye to our co-workers.”

Yudha reached out and invited Zavian into the meeting room. The spacious room had been filled by the higher-ups of their company who were looking forward to Zavian's arrival. There are snacks as well as canned drinks at each table. 

Farewell show is simple, but looks memorable because the faces there seem not willing to be Zavian's decision. Some even blatantly said that they shouldn't have to do this and Zavian shouldn't have left. Unfortunately, Zavian will not change his decision again. 

“ Thank you for your cooperation so far,” said Zavian closed his farewell speech which was greeted with sighs of disappointment by the audience. 

They then greeted Zavian in turn and Om Farhan became the last person to shake his hand. 

“ Welcome to join here, Om. Sorry if I have to go,” reply Zavian. 

“ May this be the best for you,” said Om Farhan with a sad look. “ Your appointment will definitely be sad if you know you are doing this.”

“ Keep all this a secret from our family, including Aunt Tania and also Mama.” pinta Zavian.

Om Farhan nodded quickly and responded to Zavian's request. After that Zavian walked out of the room and his assistant came to see him while handing him a map. In it there are passports belonging to Nayara and Zeano, there is also a visa legalization file that has been approved. 

After making sure everything was done, Zavian then went home. He saw his driver lift the suitcases into the car and Nayara had prepared while holding Zean.

“ We go directly now,” said Zavian. He did not need to change clothes because he had been wearing neat clothes despite coming home from the office. 

Nayara got into the car with Zean, followed by Zavian. The workers in their homes waved their hands full, some even shed tears.

Along the way, Zavian was convinced that this was the best decision for him. No more doubts infiltrated in his heart .The warm grasp of his wife's hand and also the babbling voice of the son had given him complete confidence. 

An hour later, Zavian and Nayara walked through the gate of an international flight to a country of their choice. Zavian turned off the phone before the plane took off and took it flying away from any frenetic frenzy that gave him a cut. There are no farewells from Mama Widya or Fabian. 

Zavian decided to move away and disappeared in silent steps.
