"Currently, is he serious?"
Zea keeps wondering to herself about Darren saying he wants to start their relationship. But is that trustworthy? After that, he refused.
"No, I can't believe it. It could be because of Rafka's statement yesterday. Maybe he's just afraid I'm taking this baby away with Rafka" he speculated.
"Well, I'll see as seriously as he is, without having to believe it!"
**
Lunch time has arrived. As agreed, Zea was about to wait for Darren in the parking lot. However, the estimate is wrong. The man was waiting in front of their car. The tumben?
"You ...???" greet Zea as follows in wonder.
"My class ended early" replied Darren who understood the meaning of his wife's greeting. "Let off now?" tanyanya and embraced by Zea.
Both of them rushed into the car, and passed to the destination. The distance is quite close, making them quickly to the destination.
Rafka was sitting in a chair with his older brother, Alzein. Zea let out a slow breath, is everything going to be okay? Will nothing happen to her husband and her best friend? Zea thought to wonder. However, he was sure the two men were old enough to deal with childish things like yesterday.
Grep's!
Zea gasped in shock, as Darren suddenly grabbed her hand and led her closer to the two men. Rafka's face looks unfriendly looking at the coupling. Zea did not have time to tell her if she would bring her husband along. To make Rafka a little shocked.
"I'm sorry, did you guys wait a long time?" zoey wanted to sit down.
However, Darren first pulled out a chair for him before the man sat down. Zea gave a stiff smile getting an impromptu attention from the man that felt strange.
"Not really," Alzein replied smiling.
Rafka was silent, confused about where to start the conversation, as well as Zea. It felt awkward for the woman to talk to Rafka, after yesterday's incident. Sudden silence among the four. Until Rafka started their conversation.
"Sorry! Yesterday was disrespectful" Rafka said. Darren is silent not chiming in, nor is Zea, he does not know what to reply.
"Honestly, I was a little disappointed to hear the facts. It was all completely beyond my expectations. I just don't want my loved ones to get hurt" Rafka explained.
"Do you think I'll make my own wife hurt?" darren Selak.
"Isn't that what you've been doing all this time?" Not answering Rafka again asked in a cynical tone. Until the eyes of the two met and locked each other with hostile gazes.
Of course, it made Alzein and Zea exchange views with feelings of mutual worry. Then, Zea gave an annoyed look at Alzein with a grunt in her heart as she recalled where the situation had started. 'All because, Brother. Why did Brother leak so much that Rafka knew?'
'Sorry Brother, Ze. You can't lie to Rafka!' inner Alzein seemed to answer with a regretful look.
'Brother, I promise to keep a secret between the three of us. Didn't-don't Brother leak the same as the others?' look at Zea in the heart.
As if talking through the eyes. Alzein shook his head, denying Zea's question. 'No, no! I don't talk to anyone else, really. Only Rafka knows. Suers!'
Zea exhaled a rough breath. How did he overcome all of that? He thundered hard to distract them. "Ehem! We better eat first. I'm hungry!" said it.
Darren decided on his gaze and immediately called the waiters to request an order. Stop Rafka also who wants to order.
"I can't eat that much, Der!" zea protests, when Darren orders so much food for him.
"You don't eat by yourself. There are babies who need all those nutrients" Darren said.
"If need be I'll help you spend it!" darren's final is indisputable.
Zea just breathed a sigh. While Alzein looks amazed at Darren who is getting attention to his sister. Unlike Rafka who seems annoyed to look at the position of Darren on his female idol. She knew Zea would never choose her. However, it is not easy to destroy Zea. In fact, it might take a lot of time for that.
"Emm, Ze?!" sapa Rafka was doubtful.
"Hem, huh?"
"You haven't answered my apology. Once again I apologize for making it to the glass at your place!" sorry Rafka is down.
Zea glanced at Darren who was speechless without any expression. Actually, it was Darren, Rafka should have apologized. However, he was not sure whether they could ask for or apologize. Maybe he should give up. After all, he appreciated Rafka's concern. And he also had to be mature among them.
"I'm sorry, I'm so!" said Zea.
All attention leads to him. Darren furrowed his brows as if containing various questions. While Rafka sparkles to find forgiveness from Zea.
"really?" tanya Rafka made sure and was taken confidently by Zea.
"Thank you, Ze!" rafka said with a big smile holding Zea's hand.
That made Darren upset. He was about to shake Rafka's hand. However, Zea unexpectedly kept her hand away from Rafka's. It certainly makes the three people there confused for various reasons.
"On behalf of my husband, I forgive what you did yesterday. And vice versa, sorry he is too, yes!"
Darren and Rafka open their arms to hear Zea's statement. The two men didn't think Zea would say that.
'Home? Zea actually admits she's the husband. And apologize on his behalf?' batin Rafka can't believe it.
'What the fuck? Why should he apologize on my behalf? The man was wrong, not me. Darren's inner self was in disbelief.
"Thus ... I hope that in the future there will be no more misunderstandings between us" continued Zea.
The two men exhaled heavily. While Alzein just folded his lips looking at the expression of the two. Maybe he doesn't need to interfere between the three now. Let them finish it themselves.
They had not been able to return to talk, food orders had come to stop them. One table was almost full of Darren's food ordered for the wife and her future baby.
"It's like gini, I'm full first," Zea's great-granddaughter swallowed her saliva.
"I didn't tell you to make it up" Darren replied.
"But-"
"Yeah!!!" Darren directed the spoon to feed.
Without protest, Zea opened her mouth. Darren pulled one lip, as one mouthful entered the wife's mouth. Of course it makes Rafka exhale heavily. Sick? Don't ask! He really could not see the scene.
Darren smiled with satisfaction at the look on Rafka's face. Of course all that he did on purpose, to tell the man. If Zea was his.
'Isn't it clear? I am the owner!'
