The Imperfect Story
Chapter 17

Once my love was as hard as rain water, I danced cheerfully under his speck. Until I forget as hard as it rains, there will be a time to stop.

Likewise with people I trust so much, so sincere that there is nothing I cover. Until I forget as sincerely as he is, there will be a time to betray.

The night at the Wati residence felt so crowded. How not, Wati and Bella as usual will interrupt the unclear until there is a little commotion.

Wati's chest rumbled a little when Bella told him about Zaskia who had set foot into their house and had raged on Ismail because she thought Bella was Ismail's second wife. At that moment Ismail had just returned from nowhere.

"Where have you been all day at home?" reprimand Wati when Ismail passes through the middle room.

"From the outside, Mom. I want to go to the room first, tired." said Ismail lazily want to leave them.

"Ishmail! Here you are!" gertak Wati's. Ishmael turned around,

"What the hell is it, Mom?" tanya Ismail put on a puffed-up face.

"When is your divorce done? I don't want that woman to disturb the calmness in this house anymore." cried Wati.

"While I take care of. Be patient." reply Ismail.

"Patience, patience and patience. For seven years I was told to be patient. But look, you're still like this, aren't you?" ledek Wati with breastplate.

"Should I report to the police for his actions that disturbs the peace of others, thus making the evidence for your divorce easier?" gertak Wati's.

"It's just a trivial matter, ma'am. No need to call the police all." said Ismail did not like.

"But the woman seemed to be going crazy. You're not afraid, he can do anything to bother us." said Wati.

"Then, what do you want me to do?" Ishmael sighed increasingly lazily answering.

"You even asked back? Is it hard to speed up your divorce? Oh, yeah, one more thing, get that woman out of her house, 'cause I want her to feel what your wife is feeling." snapped Wati.

"Basic sintingg!" gerutu Ismail slowly while leaving Wati who was still nagging.

"Remember, I'm charging you what you promised me!" wati shouted at Ismail who was already invisible from his sight.

After breakfast, Zaskia drove her car to a shopping center through a rat lane to avoid traffic jams, because this morning there is an important client who will meet her.

Arriving there, they immediately talked and discussed some proposals. The meeting went smoothly, and the client was willing to cooperate with his company.

When he was about to get out of the place, there was someone who called Kia. Until Kia's steps stopped and turned to the source of the voice.

"Hey, Zaskia. Long time no see." said the man said hello.

"Sorry, who are you?" reply Kia with a smile.

"Have you forgotten me?" tanyanya and Kia just shook their heads while raising their shoulders.

"Look carefully at my face." she said then Kia looked at the face carefully.

"Yes, no problem. I'll never remember, because you used to mock me and didn't deserve to be in this world" Judge told Kia.

"I'm sorry, I used to be too unstable to insult you like that" Kia said regretfully.

"No problem, Kia. How is Ismail?" ask the Judge.

"We're getting a divorce." said Kia flatly.

"Really's? Haha, if I were Ishmael, I would do the same. In fact, there is no slit after her for you to live quietly." the circus judge, then left just like that leaving Kia who felt pierced because of the sentence that came out of the man's mouth.

Zaskia immediately threw away the bad thoughts that were inciting her that Ishmael would do something that made her life miserable. Kia also immediately spurred his car to split the highway that is quite dense vehicles to the company.

Arriving there, Kia immediately stepped foot into the room that read the CEO on her glass door. The strange gazes of the servants made him feel astonished. Not usually they stared so intensely, as if he had made a mistake. However, Kia continued to think positively.

"Risc!" call Kia before actually entering her room.

"Yes, Kia's mother. What's up?" ask Riska by walking towards Kia.

"I want to have a meeting with all of you. Because I want to discuss important things about the company." Kia explained.

"Oh, huh? Equally, I will also discuss important things about the position in this company." said Ismail loudly, from outside approaching Kia.

Kia and all the employees who heard were surprised at the arrival of Ismail with a man behind him, who was none other than the Judge.

"There is no need to hold a meeting, we will discuss it directly." Ismail said in a voice that boomed throughout the company.

"From today, Zaskia's CEO will be removed!" Cetus Ismail made everyone in the room whisper and argue.

"As the largest shareholder in the company. I want Zaskia to quit this company" he added, while Zaskia shook her head in disbelief.

"What do you mean, Ishmael! You have no right to fire me. Here I am holding the biggest stake, not you!" kia's scream with her chest rising and falling as emotions began to rumble.

"Hahaha, that was then, Kia. Judge, please explain to him." Ishmael laughed triumphantly before allowing the Judge to speak.

"Look, Zaskia's mother. All you need to know is that Ms. Zaskia is no longer the largest shareholder here because Mr. Ismail has bought all your shares" he explained, handing her a chocolate map.

Zaskia immediately grabbed and opened the map, she read everything written on the white sheet. Sometimes Kia shakes her head in disbelief and does not accept what she reads.

"This is impossible! I never even signed this!"

"But it's really your signature, isn't it?" ask Ishmael casually.

"But- "

"In that case, it's time to appoint a new CEO. As the largest shareholder, I appoint myself as the new CEO. And my previous COO position that has been vacant, I will transfer it to my second wife, Devita." explained Ismail loudly without any hesitation, and mentioned Devita's name when the woman had just arrived in the room.

Everyone was astonished, they did not believe that Ishmael had two wives. And the most horrendous thing was that Devita was Zaskia's best friend.

Don't ask how shocked Zaskia is, so she has to hold on to the table in front of her, when her legs feel weak suddenly because of the shock given from Her Ex-Husband Candidate.
