The Time Limit (42)

The two enter the room, with Sakha's help, Adel lays his body on the bed. Until his gaze leads to something on the nightstand. Like a photo, Adel did not know it.

Out of curiosity, he grabbed it with great difficulty and...

The deg!

💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞

It turns out that it was really a photo. A picture of her husband and Alifa in a pretty intimate pose.

Adel still looked at the photo until the husband arrived with a drink.

" I can explain", Sakha was shocked and rushed to keep the glass on the nightstand until there was water spilled.

" It's not what you think it is" Sakha tried to explain.

" What do I imagine?", asked Adel curiously.

" You must think I'm the same as Alifa.", Sakha is confused as to what it looks like.

" You are the same Alifa why?", asked Adel to hold back his smile. Seeing Sakha's expression like that just looks funny.

" Yes, it's not like what you'd imagine" Sakha scratched her non-itchy nape.

" Well, what am I imagining?"

" You must think I'm doing a no-no right?", Sakha asked back.

" What's the no-no like?", asked Adel teasingly.

" that... ", sakha was suddenly silent. He just realized something. " You're testing me?", just probing.

" Testing the point?",

" Ah done. Honey, you're scaring me" Sakha flung her body beside Adel and hugged Adel's waist from the side.

Adel just smiled. Seeing Sakha who is worried and trying to explain everything for fear of her misunderstanding with Sakha makes her realize one thing. Sakha's heart he's got. Sakha is afraid of losing her.

Can Adel be confident in his conclusions?

" Why is Mas that scared when I look at your photos?", Adel gently rubbed Sakha's head.

" Of course. You're gonna misunderstand me. Everyone who caught a glimpse of the photo would definitely misunderstand,"

" I therefore continued to observe the photo and did not catch a glimpse of it "

Sakha changed her position. He sat down next to Adel. " So you know the photo was just an edit?", asked Sakha curiously.

" As I said, if you look at a glance you will definitely misunderstand. Therefore, I observed him. Apparently, it doesn't make me misunderstand at all" Adel explained calmly.

" But you were ...",

" That was first', Adel cut Sakha's words.

" A right, time makes you change. My wife wasn't my old best friend".

" The man is not a machine that will run according to the commands designed for him at any time. Humans will always change either in a better direction or vice versa. Depends on how he accepts his fate ".

Sakha agrees. Many people turn 360 degrees because of one incident.

" But, weren't you jealous in the slightest when you saw that photo? Or do you just have no feelings until you don't react at all because you don't care?". In retrospect, Sakha had never seen Adel jealous since they were married.

He remembered when he often asked about Lisa but was always responded to by Adel. When he saw Sakha with Lisa even though Amel chose to go on appeal showed his jealousy.

" How could you think that?", Adel shook his head in disbelief at what her husband said.

" Don't you think I've ever been jealous of Lisa?", asked Adel to look at her husband.

Sakha hush.

" Which wife is not jealous if her husband thinks of another woman. Then can I show that I'm jealous while from the beginning I'll widow if I manage to find Lisa?", Adel inhaled a breath for a moment.

" I'm not jealous. I just don't feel entitled to jealousy. Remember what our marriage was like ".

Sakha felt guilty. He shouldn't have asked.

" Then about Alifa, if I'm not jealous I'll let her get close to you" Adel explained.

" I'm sorry", Sakha kissed Adel's hand.

" That's it, why even talk about this",

" But, as much as I know you're jealous and have feelings for me" Sakha just smiled.

" Rest first, you must be tired", Sakha helped Adel to relax his body.

" Mas also rest, it must be tiring to keep me in the hospital" Sakha said. He admitted that during Adel's time in the hospital he really could not rest his body. The fear of losing Adel made him unable to sleep well.

He knows death can happen to anyone. Sick people don't necessarily die earlier than healthy people. However, sick people seem closer to death than healthy people.

Sakha hugged the bolster of her life while keeping it from hitting Adel's leg. Inhaling the fragrance of the wife's body makes her sleep easily. Besides his body needs rest.

Adel is like that too. He closed his eyes and began to fall asleep.

Satria and Tari return together to the city of J. Dari invites Satria to come home together because their goals are the same. After all Satria can take turns with him to drive a car.

That was the original plan. However, in fact Satria was driving from the beginning of the journey until finally reaching the city of J. They arrived when the day was already late at night.

" Sat, go to your house first. Later I can go home driving my own car", suggested Tari.

" It's okay, I'll take you home. Later I can go home by taxi", replied Satria. "It's almost night, anyway'.

Dari did ask Satria not to be too formal to be more comfortable. Therefore, Satria did as Tadi asked.

Dari finally resigned to let Satria drive him home to the apartment. Because Satria is in control right now. In fact, not too late according to Dance. Moreover, he had gotten used to going home by himself even more tonight than this.

" As for Sakha, thank you for being reminded. It doesn't feel right that I'm interfering with Sakha and her wife's relationship ", Dance sincerely thanked me.

" All together. I'm sorry if you're so presumptuous to interfere in your personal affairs. It's just a pity if you have to be a p3lakor" said Satria while still focusing on looking towards the road.

" No problem. After thinking about it, I will look b0d0h if I continue my intention. At first I thought Sakha was still Lisa. That's why I have an intention to take it from Lisa".

" You're competing for Sakha's sister?" Satria guess.

" I just feel like Lisa doesn't deserve Sakha who I think is too good for her. I know what Lisa looks like, even told Sakha . But, she refused to believe me and trusted Lisa more. That really pisses me off", honestly, Dance.

" That means you don't like or love. Rather just obsessing over being able to get Sakha's sister"

" Maybe also ", I just realized that. Maybe the envy of Lisa made her want to have what Lisa had.

" You have a boyfriend yet?" asked the curious Dance.

Satria did not answer. He parked his car first. They had indeed arrived at the apartment owned by Tari.

While Dance he was made curious because he had to wait for Satria's answer.
