The Broken Ring's
I Love You, Zayn

Larisa and Zayn returned home in silence. During the journey, none of them made a sound. Both are immersed in their own thoughts. If Zayn was driving while looking straight at the road. Larisa herself looked out the window. I don't know what's going on in the couple's mind.

Seruni welcomed the arrival of her son and daughter-in-law with a worried face. She is afraid that Larisa and Zayn's secret will be revealed before her husband. If that happens, then everything will definitely not be okay.

"Where's Zidan, Ma?" asked Zayn when he found that Seruni was not holding his son.

"Zidan fell asleep after he was full. Mama put him to bed in your room" said Seruni.

Zayn nodded in response.

"How was that?" ask Seruni later.

"I've cleared everything up. Mama don't worry. After this, Papa or the others will not ask anything about Zidan, nor will they demand Risa to get pregnant" Zayn replied.

Although what Zayn said was a relief, but still Seruni showed a face that did not understand. She knows exactly what her husband is like. How could Zayn convince Zamir that easily.

"Ma, thank you for looking after Zayn. I went into the room first" Larisa told Seruni.

"Ah, yes." Seruni nodded in agreement.

Larisa leaves Seruni and Zayn. Makes Seruni even more wondering.

"What happened in our house, Zayn? Why is Risa like that? Everything's fine, right?" Cecar Seruni to Zayn.

"Nothing happened, Ma. Risa may still feel shocked and depressed after dealing with Papa earlier. Mama knows for herself how Papa is, right? But everything is fine" said Zayn.

"How can your father just let this matter go" said Seruni did not understand.

Zayn sighed for a moment. After that, he also told her what he did to make Zamir not question about Zidan anymore, nor will he demand Risa to get pregnant.

Seruni who was listening looked dumbstruck, before finally nodding her head slowly.

"Do you mind the way I do it?" zayn asked as he looked at Seruni's expression.

Seruni shook her head, "no. Mama just didn't expect you to do that."

"Is that bad?" ask Zayn again.

Once again Seruni shook her head, then smiled faintly.

"That's not bad at all, son. Mama didn't say if the lie was justified. But a husband who willingly bears the lack of a wife as his lack of self, Mama no longer knows a better husband than that. Mama is very proud that you can protect your wife well. All you can do is pray that everything will be fine. And you are always given happiness." Seruni said sincerely.

Zayn stared at Seruni for a moment, then clasped his mother's hands together.

"Thank you, Ma. Thank you for supporting me and Risa," Zayn said, kissing the backs of Seruni's hands in turn.

Seruni gently rubbed the cheek of her youngest son.

"That's it. Take your wife there. Mama go home first. Papa will definitely ask questions if Mama is too long here," said Seruni.

Zayn nodded, "want me to take you?

"No. Mama can take a taxi. You said Risa was still in shock. Quickly calm him."

Zayn nodded. Despite having a very hard papa and does not understand him. She is grateful to have at least one mother who has always supported her.

Seruni finally returned home by taxi. Zayn took the mother to the yard. After which, he re-entered and followed Larisa into their room.

In the room, Larisa appears to have taken a shower and changed clothes. He sat on the edge of the bed while looking gently at Zidan. I don't know what he's thinking right now.

"Risa," call Zayn.

Larisa.

"No. Mama's home" said Zayn.

"Don't you take it?"

"Mama said you'd take a cab."

"Oh, yeah." That was Larisa's response.

Zayn watched his wife for a moment. Obviously, there are those who are disturbing the woman's mind even though the problem with Zamir can be said to be finished.

"What are you thinking, Risa?" ask Zayn.

Larisa.

"Bring first let it be fresh" Larisa said as she opened the wardrobe and picked up a change of clothes for Zayn.

Zayn stepped closer to Larisa who was behind him, then hugged her from behind.

Larisa froze for a moment. But despite his surprise, he had no intention of letting go.

"Everything's sorted out. What else are you worried about, hm?" ask Zayn gently. The man placed his chin on Larisa's head.

Larisa is still silent. She doesn't know what Zayn really feels like to her, but the man's treatment of her makes her feel so loved.

"Why did you do that?" larisa asked then after being silent for quite a while.

"Do what?"

"Acknowledge to Papa and others that you are barren. Should it go that far?" Larisa.

Zayn tightened his arms and kissed Larisa's head at a glance, making Larisa's feelings even more erratic.

"Of course I have to." Zayn answered steadily.

"But .. you're dropping your own pride ...." Larisa turned her body and looked up at Zayn.

"The dignity of the husband is in the honor of his wife. What I did earlier did not hurt my pride at all because I did it to protect your honor. If you get insulted, even by my own family, that's exactly what makes my pride fall." Zayn muttered as he stared fixedly at Larisa.

Larisa can't say anything anymore. Indeed, previously did not expect too high on his marriage with Zayn. For him, it is enough with Zayn to accept his shortcomings and his dark past. No need to treat it this well.

"That's it. Take a shower there." Larisa breaks away from Zayn's embrace.

Zayn smiled. He knew that his wife was wrong at the moment.

"Alright," Zayn said then as he passed towards the bathroom.

After Zayn left, Larisa again sat on the edge of the bed with her chest pounding. His hand until it was engraved involuntarily held onto his chest.

Shortly after, Zayn came out of the bathroom with a fresher body. The man appeared to be wearing a bathrobe, leaving his wet hair a little water droplets.

Larisa looked at her husband for a moment, then threw away her face with a heated face. She doesn't understand why she's like a teenage girl in love with a man.

Zayn wore a change of clothes that Larisa prepared, then dried his hair using a towel. Larisa secretly steals a look and notices what her husband is doing. I don't know, all of a sudden Larisa's feelings become full and warm. This man is the best gift God has given him.

Zayn was busy drying his hair. Larisa slowly stood up and approached her husband. A moment later, Zayn was stunned when he felt a pair of hands coiling around his stomach. Larisa held him from behind while leaning her head on his shoulder.

"I love you, Zayn," whispered Larisa with hara.
