The Second Angel of My Husband
Chapter 20

After her mother and Tifa left with Alvin, Zella returned home. Seeing her refrigerator full of groceries, Zella could only sigh at the form of her mother's concern for her son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter.

For your dinner and akhsan, you cook yourself.

Zella remembered her mother's message, for a moment she pondered.

Cooking for Akhsan? Foolish thing about him!

Zella took the vegetables and sauteed them for herself. Currently Zella is only interested in vegetables as a friend to enjoy a plate of rice. In the past cooking for Akhsan was a fun thing, before dawn, Zella always struggled in the kitchen for breakfast and supplies Akhsan. When Akhsan was going home, he prepared to make fried food or cake as a snack, continue cooking again for dinner. It feels very beautiful activity, especially if he tries a new menu, it feels dug-dug'an waiting for Akhsan's comment whether the cuisine is good or not. After Akhsan had scratched the wound in her countless heart, in Zella's daily dictionary, she had already crossed out Akhsan's name.

After sauteing, Zella immediately enjoyed the food, then resumed the work that was so boring. Ironing shirt shirts and others, which Akhsan used to work.

"Assalamu'alaikum!" hail Akhsan.

"Wa'alaikum salam" said Zella.

Hearing the voice from the laundry room, Akhsan immediately walked towards that place. "Sleepy kok? Where's Tifa's mom?"

"Mama was picked up by her employer to accompany her while in the village of Arum Baru, her employer had a job there. Tifa was also brought by her, because her employer was ready to take Tifa to school while they were there." Zella's attention remained on the clothes she was ironing.

"Ma ... Abah here, if you talk to him, look at his brother. Is it better looking than an ironing board?"

Zella cares about her hearing, she stays focused on her work.

"Ma ...." Akhsan slowly approached Zella.

"Don't come any closer!" zela said firmly.

"Why?" Akhsan considered Zella's warning a joke.

"I'm a puff, my body stinks. So you better not be close!" said Zella.

"Don't you? Just relax, besides, it's common to smell your body." Akhsan immediately hugged Zella from behind.

"Do I smell?!" Zella let go of Akhsan's embrace violently.

"Mama why the hell? How did things change so much?"

Zella took off her iron plug, then approached Akhsan with her anger. "Can you be clear about what you said just now? You said I'm used to smelling?"

Akhsan just realized Zella was really angry with him, the look in her eyes was as if a blaze in it. "Yes-Yes-Oh really, I used to smell your body." Akhsan. He was very surprised by Zella's reaction, all this time Zella had never behaved like this.

"Owh ... is that so? My body always stinks? So you're a regular? But can you remind me about when I approached you with a situation where I still smelled?"

"Mama .. Don't be so afraid." Akhsan tried to embrace Zella, but failed because Zella threw a hand that wanted to embrace her.

"Ma .. Don't be angry, you're just kidding."

"Berchandyaaaa?" Zella mocked Akhsan with a viral joking tone. "Oh sorry, I can't take this as a joke. Because this is self-worth. Instantly my pride was slammed so hard when my husband said I stink!"

"Are you baperan gini?"

"I'm baperan?!" Zella laughed blandly. "You know my struggle to always smell close to you? I'm willing not to snack to buy perfumes that I buy per milli to always fragrance near you, and I only wear perfume if near you, when you want to work, when you want to work, as much as I can be neat and fragrant, especially when accompanying you in the room, I never get close to you when there is a strange scent on my body, as much as I can approach in the best state as I can!" Zella tried to hold back the angry outburst within her.

"When I stink I'm conscious, and I ask you to keep your distance from me if I don't smell, can you say you're used to smelling my body?"

"I'm sorry, I was really joking, I realized you always smell good near me."

Zella picked up a glass glass that contained a bit of water nearby. Zella throws the glass to the side of the room, immediately making Akhsan aghast.

"I'm sorry? After you give me the pain, sorry, can the pain go away?"

Zella leaned over to the broken glass. "I'm sorry, I was just kidding you," Zella said to the broken glass. Too close to the shards, he accidentally stepped on one of the glass shards, making the floor immediately colored red. Zella did not feel her leg hurt, as there was greater pain making the small wound meaningless.

"Ma, your leg is hurt." Akhsan pulled Zella away from the broken glass.

"It's just a small wound, while I'm hurt by a bigger wound." Zella brushed off Akhsan's hand and immediately left the room.

Akhsan was trying to understand the 'greater wound' that Zella said. But his handphone continued to tremble. Makes Akhsan put that thought aside. He immediately received a phone call from his sister.

"Yes Ran?"

"Don't you read our family group chat?"

"I'm busy Ran, haven't been able to climb chating there."

"Well, read quickly, if you've read it, I think you know what to do!" Ranti immediately disconnected their phone.

Akhsan immediately opened her family chat group. There were so many messages that cornered Zella, even many photos that became the subject of her family because Zella traded by the side of the road with the cart of the countainer.

Since noon they made Zella their ingredient, is this what Zella meant by bigger wounds? Akhsan.

The drettt!

Akhsan's phone received one message.

*You better tell Zella to stop trading, make the family ashamed to know!

Akhsan let out her breath reading Ranti's message. He immediately typed a reply message.

\=Already from yesterday, but Brother was lectured. Slowly, my brother talked to him.

The drettt!

*So bad! Says mom she's a sholehah woman, is this a sholehah woman? Dare to deny her husband's orders? I can't wait for my mom to come home, I want to admit the behavior of her favorite daughter-in-law, eh errat! I mean the golden boy! Ranti's reply message.

Akhsan kept her phone, she immediately looked for Zella. From the sound that was heard, it was clear Zella was in their room. Akhsan approached immediately.

"Sir, I'm sorry."

Zella cared about her sense of hearing, for her there was currently no Akhsan. Zella knew her behavior was wrong. But the pain that ensnared her made her forget the role of wife.

"Jim!" Akhsan was running out of patience to face his wife.

Zella stays in her business, feeling that what she needs is complete, Zella takes everything to Tifa's room.

"Why do you defy like this Zella?! I'm home from work tired! Hungry up! Not eating or preparing to eat for me, you're assuming I'm not there!"

"Not have you ever had dinner at home in the last few months? Is it because of my mother? Don't be afraid, my mama's not home, she's paying as usual."

"But I'm already home Zell, you don't price me!"

Zella slammed the door of Tifa's room, this made Akhsan growled.

"Zella! If you are like this I will stay with you! I'm leaving and I'm not going home!" akhsan.

The door of the room slowly opened, Akhsan smiled with satisfaction, she was sure that Zella was afraid that she would not go home, because Zella could only depend on her.

"Will not go home again?" said Zella lirih.

"What am I gonna do when you act like me."

"Owh .. If you don't want to go home again it's okay, no one starts either, so .. please!" Zella slammed the door again, Akhsan was surprised by Zella's reply and slammed the door.
