The Ugly Wife's
Request assistance

William sat in the living room with a lethargic face. He seemed bored looking at the three women who looked busy, with a stack of papers in front of him.

The three women were Ratih, Kana and also Zenith. They are looking at some examples of wedding concepts that will be used for weddings between William and Zenith.

"Darling, do you think this concept is good? Actually I like the concept of outdoor, but this one is really my style. How do you think?"

"Good" replied William of origin while glancing at the paper that Zenith had shown him.

"Look at the right dong William, don't come off like that! All of this is for the sake of preparing your marriage and also Zenith, so it must be prepared as well as possible" protested Kana's anxiety, seeing the indifference of her sister-in-law.

"What Kana said. This party must be prepared as best as possible, because there will be many important people who come to the wedding of the two of you" added Ratih.

William, who heard the scolding from the two women, could only take an annoyed breath while grabbing the paper from Zenith's hands roughly.

William continued to look at the paper without a word coming from his lips. Until a few minutes passed William still remained silent, making the three impatiently wait.

"Where's darling? How long have you seen it, whether you like it or not?"

"Can you shut up? I'm focused on looking at this paper so that our wedding can be prepared as best it can be. Wait for a few more hours!"

"Forget over. Let mommy, Kana and Zenith decide the concept!" ratih said while reclaiming the paper in William's hand.

Seeing Ratih who looks upset, makes Kana and Zenith immediately look at William angrily. The man was even more stupid.

Suddenly from outside the house appeared the figure of Haykal and also Rizal who had just returned from work.

Ratih who saw the arrival of the husband, immediately greeted him with a friendly embrace.

"Well, it turns out everything is gathering here. What are you guys doing?" tanya Rizal was happy to see the scene in front of him.

"Hi daddy, welcome" said Zenith and Kana kompak.

"Hi is also my beautiful daughter-in-law, and also our happy bride-to-be"

"Daddy, can daddy help Zenith?" asked Zenith with a clear face.

"certain. What should daddy do for you?" asked Rizal while sitting next to his second son-in-law.

"Zenith with mommy and sister Kana, was looking at the concept of marriage for Zenith and William's wedding. Because the three of us were all women, so we needed judgment from a man's point of view, but William couldn't expect any daddy"

"Ah, so you want daddy to be an appraiser from a male point of view?"

"Maam daddy. Please help Zenith"

"alright. Give all the papers that must daddy value, daddy will definitely do it in earnest"

Hearing Rizal's words, Zenith's face seemed to flowery. Without further ado, he immediately took Rizal another stack of papers that he had separated into his choice.

"Ehem, ahem. Did no one see my presence? Does no one want to ask for my judgment as well, I'm very reliable!" Haykal.

"If Haykal also wanted to help, I would definitely be very grateful. Please help, brother"

"Of course he'll be happy to help you, won't he?"

"Of course!"

"Let's sit next to me, and we'll see together" Kana asked as she patted the seat beside her.

Seeing the familiarity that intertwined between his family, instead of feeling happy and happy, William even felt crowded.

Somehow he felt like a helpless puppet, and could only follow where he was led.

From childhood, William hated being forced to do something he did not like. He never denied his parents' orders, but this time he felt they had crossed the line.

They told him to break up with Asyifa, then insisted that he engage with Zenith, the woman he did not love at all.

Even now, they were preparing for the wedding for her, without asking her about her willingness at all.

"Color already has daddy and also Sister Haykal who will help you, means I am no longer needed, right? Then I'll be out for a while" said William, rising from his seat.

"Where are you going? Wouldn't it be better if we chose them together? Anyway, it's for our marriage to William"

"no need. Just choose which one you want, I'll follow your choice, so don't ask for my opinion"

Without waiting for a response from Zenith who seemed to still want to hold it, William immediately walked toward the drawer where his car keys were usually stored.

"Where are my car keys?" william asked annoyed when he found the car keys were not there.

"Are you looking for this?" ask Ratih while swinging a key in his hand.

"That's William mom's car key? Why aren't there hangers, mommy where are the hangers?"

"You mean that ugly teddy bear hanger? If so, mommy told ida to throw it away. Why are you wearing such a cheap keychain?"

"Why did mommy throw it away without William's permission? It's William's property, it shouldn't be mommy touching it carelessly!" william looked very angry.

The teddy bear hanger was a gift from Asyifa to William, as a birthday present for the two of them.

William deliberately still wears it, because it is the only item that can remind him of the figure of Asyifa who is still very loved.

While the goods given by Asyifa or the goods he bought along with the girl, have been removed at the insistence of mommy.

"Why are you that angry at mommy, Will? It's as important as what, who gave it to you?"

"Not much to ask. It's none of Haykal's business, so don't interfere!"

"Definitely a gift from Asyifa huh? From the last time we met him, he still seemed to like you a lot. Did he force you to keep it?"

"What did you say, Zenith? Have you ever met Asyifa? Didn't the girl know she was lucky, coming to see you to do something evil to you?" tanya Ratih was surprised.

"Actually, William and Asyifa were meeting together at a cafe mom. Zenith accidentally saw them, so Zenith approached to say hello, because Zenith thought it was William's friend"

"Why did you see that girl again William? You are already engaged to Zenith, it is not appropriate to meet other women without the knowledge of your partner" said Rizal unexpectedly come to express his opinion.

"That was William and Ashifa daddy's last meeting. William just wanted to finish what was unresolved between the two of us"

"Is your relationship really over?"

"Yes mom. So I'm asking, please give me my car keys back. There's an important business that William has to finish tonight regarding the work at the company"

William deliberately did not want to prolong the problem, he suddenly remembered there was something else he had to do tonight.

"But we promised to have dinner together, are you just going to miss it?"

"Already Train, just give me the car keys. Didn't you hear, he said there's work to be done tonight"

"All right"

Ratih handed the car keys to William by force after getting an order from her husband.

"William will eat out, mommy and others please have dinner without William" William said after taking the key given by Ratih. Then walk out of there immediately.

"So what does it mean to have you visit nights like this and interrupt someone else's rest?" ask Zidan to the man in front of him.

Zidan had just wanted to relax on his soft mattress after finishing a stack of work, when the sound of the bell overturned his intention.

He felt increasingly upset when he found the guest figure that interfered with his rest time, it turned out to be the man who was most hated by him.

But because William begged to be allowed to enter in in order to explain the purpose of his arrival, Zidan was finally forced to give up.

"Once again sorry for coming up late nights like this. But I had no other choice, because you were the only one I thought of"

"What max? Try saying it clearly, don't use such evasive words on me!" said Zidan put on a look of disgust.

"Help? What help do you want from me? But don't expect much, because I don't have the slightest intention to help you, whatever the reason!"

"I'm very confident that you'll be willing to help me"

"If you only want to talk about nonsense, you and your confidence should just leave my apartment right now!"

Zidan got up and immediately dragged William's body out of his apartment. William, who could not match Zidan's strength, kicked the man's shins with all his might.

"Damn it! What are you doing, how dare to attack the host you are visiting. I'll report you to the police station, just wait!"

Zidan pulled the phone out of his pants pocket and immediately pressed some numbers to call, but was immediately prevented by William.

He took the phone out of Zidan's hand and threw it on the couch, out of the man's reach.

"I came here because of Asyifa!" william half-cried, when he saw Zidan who was ready with his fists.

"What happened to Ashifa? Did you find Asyifa again along with your pretentious fiancee?"

"Not that. I'll explain, but can we sit down first?"

"If you sit there so quickly, what are you waiting for?"

After sitting quietly, William then took out a map stored in his thick jacket. He then placed it in front of Zidan.

"Map what is this?"

"That's the map Ashifa sent this morning to my family's company. I want you to look and read the contents"

Zidan obeyed William's words and immediately took the given map. For a while, he focused on reading some of the paper in the map.

"Then, what do you mean bring all this to me?"

"As you read, Ashifa has changed the name of the ownership of the apartment where she lives now, to my name. While he is with Angel and Mira, will soon move to another apartment"

"Then, what does this have to do with me? Don't tell me you want me to buy that apartment from you, so Asyifa's willing to stay?"

"I guess if it was yours, Asyifa would definitely want to stay. Don't you also want Asyifa to stay close to you?"

Hearing William's words, Zidan seemed to think for a while and then nodded to agree.

"But I have one condition that you must fulfill. If you don't fulfill it, I won't want to follow your plan!"

"What are your terms?"

"The terms are very easy. That is, never appear again in front of Asyifa or her two friends!"

"If it's for that, you calm down. I won't be able to do it either, despite being eager to meet him. You also saw it no, how angry and disappointed Asyifa was with me"

"It's good that you know yourself! And may your relationship with your fiancee, always run smoothly"

Hearing Zidan's words, William could only smile wryly. He took out another map from behind his jacket to give it to William.

"It seems we've agreed. I've prepared the paperwork, so you just sign it"

"Give me your account, I'll send you the money right now"

"Save your money, I don't need it. I just need your signature as the apartment owner in my place"

"Then don't dream of getting my signature before you give me what I ask for!"

"You don't seem to want to have something for free?"

"No, thank you. I also have a lot of money, so I can buy it for real"

William showed Zidan the account number on his phone screen. Quickly, Zidan immediately sent some money there.

After that, he took out a pen from inside the drawer, and signed the document. In addition to the documents signed by him, the others he handed back all of them to William.

"Thank you for the help and the time. Because there's nothing more to talk about, I'll excuse you first"

"Thank you also for coming to ask for help from me" said Zidan who was replied with a smile by William.

When he was outside Zidan's apartment, William looked at the door next to Zidan's tightly closed apartment with a sad look.

"Sorry Asyifa. This is all I can do for you, as atonement for all the pain I've given you in your life" William said in his heart, before actually leaving.

*****

Ding... Dong..

Hearing the doorbell ringing, making the focus of the three girls who were engrossed in watching a movie on the television screen, slightly disturbed.

"I am open" said Asyifa, rising from her seat and walking towards the door.

"Who the hell else, night-time visits to people's apartments? I think there is no other work" muttered Mira annoyed.

"Sir Zidan? What's up here, it's really late" said Asyifa to tighten the volume of his voice.

Hearing that Zidan was the one who came to see you, Angel and Mira immediately tidied up all the items scattered under the floor and on the front desk of the tv.

"This is Asyifa, there is actually something important that I want to talk about with you and your two best friends"

"What do you want to talk about, can't you talk about tomorrow, sir?"

"Can I come in?" ask Zidan.

"Of course, please enter Mr. Zidan" said Angel hurriedly told Zidan to enter before the man was expelled by Ashifa.

After sitting face to face with the three girls, Zidan handed him a piece of paper to read.

After reading the contents of the paper, the faces of the three of them turned to be extremely shocked and also astonished.

"Now, the owner of the apartment that the three of us are living in right now is Mr Zidan? How can it be, not William the owner?" mira asked in surprise.

"Don't tell me you deliberately bought this apartment from William, because you heard we're moving out of here soon?"

"What am I doing it for? I just accidentally saw that the owner of the building was selling the units you're occupying, so I bought them"

"Did you come here to tell us to get out of this apartment quickly sir?" ask Angel plain.

"Calm down sir, we'll move out of here as soon as we can. Tomorrow, we'll sign the apartment contract that the three of us chose"

"Don't move and don't sign any contracts with any apartment owner, Ashifa! You guys should stay here"

Hearing Zidan's words made the three become even more confused.

"Indeed why we have to stay here, this apartment belongs to Mr. Zidan" asked Asyifa curiously.

"Well, to make money! I bought this apartment, to make money, and therefore I need people who want to rent this place"

"Mr wants the three of us to be his tenants? Can't sir! We've already seen the original rental price of this apartment, and it's very expensive. We better rent another apartment that's cheaper but nice, don't you guys?"

"What Angel said sir!" mira and Asyifa said together.

"You can pay the rent according to the new apartment you will occupy. I'm lazy to have to find a tenant, it's so troublesome!"

"But it's the same father who will lose. You know business, right?" asyifa Protest.

"There's not much protest, you just have to stay in this apartment. Beware if you dare to move, I fire all of you! It's been a break there, I'm going back to my apartment. Good night"

Asyifa and her two best friends, could only silently look at Zidan's departure with astonished gazes.
