🌹HAPPY READING🌹

"You mean, son?" ask Melani.

Zahra turned her eyes to Melani. "Sister Kenzo always carries Zahra, Ma. He replaced Zahra's paralyzed leg with his sling" Zahra replied with her sweet smile turning to look at Kenzo.

Zahra looked into Kenzo's eyes. "Sir Kenzo has sincerity that not many people know about, Ma," Zahra replied with a look that could not be separated from Kenzo.

Kenzo looked back at Zahra. His hands clenched to hear every word spoken from Zahra's mouth.

"Kenzo to the back garden!" kenzo stood up and walked away from them all. The garden behind Kenzo's house has a beautiful view at night. Colorful garden lights, plus flowers that increase in life because of the light of the lamp.

Zahra only looked at Kenzo's departure with an unseen look from Kenzo's missing back. It's okay after this Brother Ken is angry with Ara. But one thing is for sure, Kak Ken knows how Ara is very concerned about the sanctity and the degree of Ara's husband. Inner Zahra.

Anggara who saw Kenzo went along stood up. "Father after Kenzo first, yes," said Anggara.

"Don't forget to come in, Pa. We had dinner together" said Melani.

Anggara nodded and immediately went to the back garden following Kenzo.

"Would you help me make dinner?" haggling Melani to Zahra.

"But Ma-"

"Zahra doesn't bother Mama. Let's help Mama," said Melani quickly cut off Zahra's words. She knew, Zahra must be feeling bad about her condition.

Melani helps Zahra up in a wheelchair that was taken down from Kenzo's car by the housekeeper. After that, they went to the dining table to arrange the food that had been prepared by the waiter.

.....

Anggara arrived at the back garden. Seeing Kenzo who was like a pensive person, Anggara immediately approached him.

"Pa" said Kenzo when he saw his father sitting next to him.

"Is there something you're hiding?" ask Anggara without further ado.

Kenzo shook his head without looking at Anggara.

Anggara laughed softly at Kenzo's reply. "You certainly don't forget who your father is, Kenzo," Anggara said.

Kenzo turned to Anggara. "I mean Papa?" ask Kenzo.

"Only animals treat their wives like pets, Kenzo!" said Anggara slowly but sound firmly in the ears of Kenzo.

"Kenzo didn't understand what Papa was saying" Kenzo said.

"To have your wife drag herself on the floor. Put it in the old warehouse room. Humiliates paralysis. What else are you doing, Kenzo?" anggara said firmly.

Kenzo immediately looked at Anggara with a surprised look. After that he changed his usual attitude and reverted his gaze. Kenzo forgot who this Papa was. Anggara is as powerful as Ibra. He has spies everywhere to monitor the state of his family.

"That's Kenzo's business with Kenzo's wife, Pa," Kenzo replied.

"You've already acknowledged her as your wife as it turns out," ledek Anggara.

Kenzo snorted annoyedly at hearing Anggara's words. This paper really irritated him.

Anggara's face turned serious after laughing at Kenzo. "Remember, Kenzo! Zahra is a good woman. Stop treating it like that or you'll know the consequences!" anggara.

"Kenzo did the right thing for Kinzi, Pa," Kenzo replied.

"Kinzi will be angry to see you like this" Anggara said.

"Papa will never understand. Kinzi is Kenzo's twin, half Kenzo's soul is Kinzi's. And Kinzi's current state is because of Al, Pa!" kenzo.

"Open your mind, Kenzo! Papa accept your opinion if Al is guilty. But why is it Zahra you've made an impingement?" ask Anggara.

"Zahra was the favorite son of the Hebi family. If he gets hurt, then the whole Hebi family will get hurt" Kenzo said.

Turns out you're stupid for not investigating who Zahra really is, Kenzo. You can only wait for your regrets. Anggara's mind heard Kenzo's answer.

"There's still Zahra's sister, isn't there?"

Kenzo laughed heartily. "Kenzo couldn't have hurt the man Kenzo loved. Kenzo shut up and let Kina marry Aska, because Aska was a good person. Kenzo will be happy if Kina is happy" Kenzo said.

"Papa doesn't need to interfere in Kenzo's household affairs. What Kenzo did, it's all for Kinzi!"

"Papa was silent, because Papa saw the great sincerity and sincerity of Zahra. Papa just doesn't want his struggle to go to waste to open your heart" Anggara replied.

"Zahra could have brought all your actions to Ibra and Al. But he didn't do that because he kept your good name, Kenzo!" Anggara.

"Then why didn't Papa tell Al everything? Papa knows everything" said Kenzo

"If I can do it, then I've been doing it since yesterday."

"Remember, Kenzo! If Zahra leaves you later, never regret and ask Papa for help!" anggara stood up and left Kenzo.

"Zahra," said Anggara, surprised to see a smiling Zahra in his wheelchair. Kenzo who heard that turned his body around.

"The food's ready, Pa. Mama is waiting for us inside" said Zahra.

Anggara sighed softly and nodded. He's approaching Zahra. "You go to the dinner table with Papa" said Anggara.

Zahra nodded. After that Anggara and Zahra left Kenzo who stared at them with an unreadable look.

*Flashback On*

That afternoon, Anggara came to Kenzo and Zahra's house alone. The point of his arrival was to ascertain the information he had heard from his men. Anggara knows, Kenzo would not be home if it was daytime, therefore he came to monitor it.

Anggara enters Kenzo's house. Anggara's eyes rounded to see Zahra who dragged his own body with a mop in his hand.

"ZAHRA!" shouted Anggara immediately snatched the pellet from the hands of Zahra.

"Pa-Papa," said Zahra in shock.

"What the fuck is this, son? So the news I heard is true?" anggara asked looking at Zahra sharply.

Zahra looked down afraid to see Anggara. His hands seemed to tremble at the emotion of Anggara.

Aggara who understood Zahra's fear took a deep breath and threw it away slowly. "Papa was not angry with Zahra. Papa was just embarrassed by what Kenzo did," said the gentle Anggara.

Zahra raised her head to look at Zahra. "Kak Ken's wish is an order for Zahra, Pa" Zahra said.

"But you're not a maid, son," Anggara replied.

"This can't be allowed. Kenzo has to get firmness in this, ", Anggara said.

"Pa, No. Zahra please," Zahra pleaded. He was afraid that if Kenzo was punished, Kenzo's revenge would affect the Al and Kina households. And Zahra didn't want that until it happened. Now it's time for him to sacrifice for his brother and sister.

"But Zahra"

"Pa, let Zahra make Kenzo's sister aware of everything. Let Zahra fight to open Kenzo's heart" Zahra pleaded.

"But this is a delay, Zahra!"

"It's not a delay, Pa. Zahra was sincere about all this. If Zahra was sincere, why didn't Papa? Zahra lived it. If Zahra is not strong, Zahra will go and give up, Pa" Zahra said, cupping both hands in front of her chest.

"Son, don't act stupid just because of Kenzo, son," Anggara stared at Zahra.

Zahra shook her head while smilingly looking at Anggara. "Other people may think Zahra to be stupid, but to Zahra, this is Zahra's patient and sincere form, Pa. If you are stupid, Zahra complained to Abi and Zahra's father from the beginning" Zahra replied calmly.

"Sir-s"

"Pa, Zahra please," said Zahra.

Anggara tried to dampen his emotions. "Alright, Papa will support what you do. But Papa please, if you can't stand it and Kenzo has gone too far, please don't go anywhere else. Go to Papa and Mama, son. Papa will help you leave. Mom and Dad need a kid like you. Your sincerity and patience are very influential for Kenzo's regrets later," said Anggara.

Zahra smile. She was happy, even though her husband did not love her, but the good in-laws Zahra had gotten. "Papa as Abi and Dad. You are the great men in Zahra's life" said Zahra.
