Zidan and Zerin return to dorm. Zerin immediately sat up to the bed while playing his fingers because he was nervous.
"Everyone knows..." Zerin finally could not help but cry.
"I'll take care of it!" exclaim Zidan. He hurried to contact Wira. But his father called first. Without a second thought, Zidan raised the call.
"We need to talk!" said Wira from across the phone. He seems to have heard about Zerin.
"I know," Zidan replied.
"Meet me at the company!" heroes Command. It sounds so serious. Turn off the phone first.
"Darling, you better get back to the apartment. Come on, let me drop you off" Zidan asked.
Zerin nodded. He and Zidan went to the apartment. Zidan did not forget to have Amira come to accompany Zerin. Next, Zidan meets Wira.
Now Zidan is in Wira's office. Both of them showed serious expressions.
"Have you known about this before" said Wira. Start the conversation first.
"I knew it when I first met him" Zidan replied.
The eyes of Wira glared sharply. He immediately pulled Zidan's collar.
"Why? Why are you just saying it now?!" timpal.
"Because I'm trying to protect the people I love!" sahut Zidan's. He removed the hand of the Hero from the collar of his shirt.
"You should have told me everything! Now--"
"What, Pah?! Now what?!" sergeant Zidan. He dared to retaliate against Wira's plot.
"Well you know why I didn't tell you in the first place?! That's because I know you definitely won't accept Zerin!"
"Keep what you want?! Can you handle all this?! Try telling me!"
The door suddenly opened. Arni came with a sullen look on her face. The emergence of success stopped the debate that occurred between Zidan and Wira.
"There's no point in arguing now! We have to stop everything before it's too late!" cetus Arni.
"But, Mah--"
"We have to take care of the media first. At the same time, we should silence the mouths of all who know. Pah, we'll both take care of everything for Zerin's sake! He's part of the Aerospace family now! The child he will be born will be the successor to Zidan," explained Arni at length. He managed to make the hero quiet.
Arni immediately approached Zidan. "Zidan, your job is-"
"I know, Mah. You don't have to explain. I'll see him right now!" said Zidan. Intentionally cut off Arni's words. He quickly passed through his parents.
"Based on the boy! So smart!" wira's comments cynical.
"He's exactly like you!" arni. Wira then can only rotate the eyeball puffed.
At the same time, Amira had just come to Zerin. He immediately hugged his brother. Amira was crying. He could feel the sadness of his brother.
"I'm sorry, Mir... You must bear shame because of me." isak Zerin. Tears kept flooding his face.
"Already, Brother. What happened already happened. I'm here with you." Amira tried to calm down.
"Did you know?" ask Zerin.
"It's been... He is now on his way here" replied Amira.
Outside Zerin's apartment building, Zidan accidentally crosses paths with Lia. He immediately approached Zerin's birth mother.
Lia looked down her head. His face was visible in the clear fluid flow from the eyes. Obviously she was crying.
Lia held onto Zidan's arm. "I'm sorry, Zidan... You must bear the shame of Zerin's behavior." she said as she broke the cry.
Zidan smiled faintly. He held gently onto Lia's shoulder. "I already know everything about Zerin. Even before marrying her. In the long run I was ready to take the risk as it is now. Mother, don't worry. Me and my family will still love Zerin" he said.
"Really?" Lia was in disbelief. He was full and immediately thanked me.
"Thank you... Zerin is really very lucky to have a husband like you" said Lia. He was more and more amazed at the kindness of Zidan and his family.
After talking to each other, Zidan and Lia immediately came to Zerin. The appearance of the two made Zerin stand up immediately. The woman ran and prostrated herself to Lia's feet.
"I'm sorry, Mom... Hiks.." whine Zerin. He doesn't know what else to do. Given her lies to Lia already so much.
"Why would you do that, Rin? Why?.." lia said. He let Zerin wrestle under his feet.
"I did it because I didn't want to trouble you... I've had a lot of hardship because of debt." explained Zerin.
"So that's why you want to do the dirty work?!"
"I'm sorry, Mom... I was wrong..."
"If you know it's wrong, then why do it?! If you've been caught like this, you'll have to take the risk yourself!" nagel Lia's.
"Already, Mom." Amira hurried to calm down. He held gently onto Lia's shoulder.
"You should-"
"Mom, sorry to interrupt. But I don't think now is the right time to scold Zerin." Zidan immediately raised his voice. He could not bear to watch his wife continue to get angry.
Lia mute. He let Zidan take Zerin away from the apartment.
Zerin just come along. His mind is really running right now.
Zidan and Zerin were in the car. The two haven't spoken since the car started.
"Well, can you take care of my cut with Zerin? We're going on honeymoon for a few days." Zidan spoke to Wira over the phone. His talk made Zerin's eyes break. A honeymoon? How could Zidan think about that while in such a mess?
"Honeymoon? Now then? Where'd you go?" just like Zerin, Wira was also astonished.
Zidan did not answer. He turned off the phone. That was when Zerin raised his voice.
"We're going on a honeymoon?" ask Zerin.
"Yes. We're going to America!" sahut Zidan with his leisure.
"What?!" zerin's cries instantly came to a halt. "But now is not the right time to go!" he added.
"It is the right time now. I will make you happy and confident again. When we get back here, I guarantee that no one will dare insult you" Zidan said. He was sure Wira and Arni were able to cope with everything. Given that both his parents had extensive connections with officials as well as important people.
Zidan's car stopped at the airport. While waiting for the plane to leave, Zidan invites Zerin to buy clothes.
Zidan gave a rude snort when he saw Zerin continue to bow down softly. Unlike usual, the woman seemed lazy to buy clothes. The spirit within him seemed to have disappeared.
From a distance Zidan continued to watch Zerin. He tried to figure out a way to make Zerin cheerful again.
"We can do anything in America" Zidan added. Trying to cheer up Zerin.
"You always say that" Zerin responded.
"of course. There no one knows us" Zidan said, embracing Zerin.
"I'm not sure I can have fun so easily" said Zerin, who was still reluctant to smile.
