"Asyifa, I'm sorry dear. I know, I've made a fatal mistake, but please forgive me and open the door, okay? I promise I won't be like that anymore"
William still continued to persuade Ashifa from behind the door to forgive herself. But Asyifa did not speak anymore.
Curiously, William put his ear there to hear what his wife was doing. But a second later his body was thrown down onto the floor as soon as Asyifa opened the door.
Bruck...
Asyifa who saw William fall in a funny style, immediately laughed out loud. All the anger and resentment that he had only felt for a moment, disappeared.
"It's good to see me fall, just keep laughing! Don't know if laughing at someone's suffering is a sin!"
"Sorry baby, I didn't mean to make you fall. Why do you also have to stick to the door of everything!"
"Well, because you're craving! I shall be compelled to persuade you with all my deathly appeal"
"Oh, so that was all done by you because you had to? Okay then, just sleep in the other room!" angry Asyifa while pushing William out
"Don't do it, baby. That was really the ads, so don't be evil with me. I promise I won't do it again, okay?"
"Whatever!"
Asyifa walked up to the bed and immediately lay down, leaving William. The face of the woman who had conceived it, frowned again like before.
"Darling, don't be angry again. Oh yeah, is everything in the kitchen real? I'm going to be a father, that means now you're pregnant with our child?" ask William with a hopeful face.
"Yes. I also accidentally found out that I was pregnant, so Mira bought me a pregnancy test to prove whether or not I was pregnant. After three tests, it turned out that I was pregnant"
"Geez, thank you. Thank you so much, I'm finally going to be a dad!" william exclaimed as he hugged Ashifa's body tightly.
"Don't be strong, watch our son. Later if you are too strong to hug, afraid he is crowded in there"
"What's right, baby?"
"I don't know, I'm just scared. Better just in case, than there will be a bad incident on him"
"yes too. Forgive me, dear father, you are well there" William said to the stomach of Asyifa which still looks flat.
"How do you feel, are you happy to know the fact that soon, you will be a father?"
"Of course I'm happy, let alone this is my son along with the woman I love the most. We have to take good care of her, so she's always healthy in there"
"Yes, you're right. I will take care of her as best I can, and after she is born I will also take care of her with all my heart"
"But baby, is it not risky if you work in a state of pregnancy like this? Shouldn't you just ask to stop?"
"I've thought about it too, and quitting is the best option. But I can't just stop, because there are many collaborations that have just been accepted by Mr. Zidan. I'll stop after I've done all that work"
"How much longer will you be done taking care of all that cooperation?"
"Once darling. But I promise, when I'm seven months old, I'll stop working right then and there"
"Well, if that's your decision"
William, who had heard Ashifa's reply, seemed a little disappointed. He was very happy Ashifa wanted to stop working for their son, because it meant his wife would not be able to meet his boss.
But maybe have to be a little more patient again, until his desire is achieved. William did not want to impose his wish on Ashifa, fearing that his wife would return to her anger.
"Thank you dear. How about we go eat now? My stomach is so hungry"
"Gosh, why didn't you say that earlier? You should eat often and do not hold back the hunger of Ashifa. Especially now that food will be useful not only for you, but for our children as well"
"I don't want to eat often, William! If I eat too much, what if I get fat?"
"What if you become fat? Not good, it's a sign that everything our child needs is being fulfilled"
"It's not like that either, honey. The full nutritional needs of our children are not seen from fat and not my body!"
"Yes if not. But I still don't care if you get fat, and I'm sure our son won't mind having a fat mother either"
"I'm the problem! Just look at how I look now, with my ideal body I still look ugly because of my face. Imagine if I were fat, what would everyone say? It's ugly, fat again, what can I be proud of!"
"Who says you're ugly, you're beautiful Asyifa. If I'm not beautiful, why would I fall in love and marry you?"
"I don't want to be fat! I'd better get some sleep, I won't eat anymore and I won't be hungry either!"
Angrily Ashifa turned her back to William and pulled the blanket to cover her entire body.
William, who was looking at Asyifa's unstable emotional behavior, could only sigh slowly. Now he understands why the father, does not want the mother pregnant again. Having a pregnant woman is much harder than doing any other job.
"It seems my days ahead will be harder than usual"
"WILLIAM!"
"Dear I_yes, what's wrong?"
"Why do you just shut up to see me being upset? You should take the initiative to persuade me dong!"
"Yes, this just wanted to be persuaded, baby. Let's eat yah? You can't possibly let the little one in your stomach starve"
"I want to eat, but I want Korean food, no other. Would you buy it for me?"
"Korean food? Didn't you prepare dinner for us? Who will eat all that food?"
"There's you, baby"
"I can spend it all myself, baby. Tell you what, tonight we eat first that you have cooked, tomorrow I just buy Korean food for you"
"I'm craving, William!"
Asyifa looked at William with an annoyed look and almost wanted to cry. How not, he also very much wants to eat his own cooking but the baby in his stomach wants to eat another. The food had to be bought by his father.
"All right, I'll do it. But I order it online only well, let it be delivered directly to our home. I cape once if I have to go out and buy it"
"It is up to you" replied Asyifa resignedly, could not ask for more for hearing William's words.

"Hows it? Did you get any information about where that woman is now? Hurry up a little, don't make all the money I gave you free!" angry Kana, who is seen talking to someone through her phone.
Not far from there, seen Ratih who was sitting in an agitated motion, on one of the sofas in the living room of his house.
The expression on the woman's face looked the same as that shown by the daughter-in-law. Both of them seemed to be overwhelmed by anxiety about something.
"Hows it? What's he saying, Kana?" rati asked when she saw Kana had finished talking on the phone.
"They haven't managed to find the girl, mommy"
"What did they do, how come it was that long? It's been over a month that we've been paying your man, when there's not a single piece of information they've been getting?"
"I suspect this is all Haykal mommy. Looks like he deliberately kept the woman away, so that it wouldn't be found by my man"
"What do you mean, Kana? There's no way Haykal would do all that, he'd be on both of us's side"
"No, he was now on William and Asyifa's side. It's not that mommy's also aware of that, so mommy asked me to find someone else to look for that woman?"
"I didn't know where the woman was at the beginning. But after my man came to that place, he and his family were gone"
"To_family? You mean, she's married to another man?" asked Ratih who looked so surprised.
"Mommy bethel. She also has a baby boy"
"If he already has a family, should we not involve him and just stop this plan? Let's just find another way to keep Asyifa and William away, how?"
After hearing more information from Kana, for some reason, Ratih's conscience seemed to feel like it could not bear to do everything they had planned.
Ratih was afraid that the plan would hurt the woman's family, especially her baby son. After all, she is also a mother.
"What mommy said, of course we can't cancel it. Does mommy want William to live forever with Asyifa?"
"Of course not. But we can't possibly separate the woman from her family, much less her infant son Kana. That's inhumane"
"Then, which is more human, helping other people's children or helping mommy's own children? Besides, wouldn't it be nice if the woman was already married?"
"Better, you mean?"
"Yes better, that means he can't be with William either. Once we remove Asyifa from William's life, we will immediately return the woman to her husband. What about mommy?"
"Mommy's still not sure it's a good plan, Kana"
"Why is that? What after undergoing treatment for mental disorders, make mommy also begin to receive Asyifa? Well then, Kana won't help mommy anymore!"
It is true, it has been two weeks that Ratih followed the treatment that her husband had registered, to heal him.
After following the treatment, Kana felt that her in-laws had changed slightly from what they used to be. Ratih becomes more emotionally controlled, even though there are workers who make big mistakes.
Ratih also becomes a more friendly and not arrogant person. Actually it made Kana a little happy, but if hearing her in-laws hesitated now, she felt displeased at all.
"Did I just influence mommy to stop picking up all those fucking drugs?" kana thinks evil.
"Of course not! Mommy still really wants William to be able to escape from Asyifa, please help mommy Kana. Now only you can believe me"
"Then, mommy must be willing to continue to carry out the initial plan that we have prepared well all this time"
"alright. Mommy's gonna keep doing it like our original plan"
"But there is one more thing you have to do so that our plan can work perfectly"
"What's that?"
"Mommy should stop following all the mental treatments that daddy has prepared for mommy"
"Ber_stop? Ta_but why?"
"Karna Kana felt the treatment was not good for mommy. The treatment turns mommy into someone else, becoming the person that daddy wants her to be. But Kana knows exactly, that mommy really doesn't want to be like that!"
"Can't! Mommy can't do it Kana, your daddy's gonna find out. Daddy himself used to take mommy and make sure to the doctor that mommy undergo all the treatment given"
"Mommy take it easy. Let Kana take care of that, Kana already has her own plan for it" Kana said with a sly smile.
*****
Asyifa is almost too late to come to work because it has to experience the usual morning routine experienced by a pregnant woman, namely nausea in the morning.
The woman further accelerated her footsteps, as she saw that the elevator door in front of her was almost closed.
"Wait for me!" asyifa shouted at someone who was inside the elevator, who turned out to be her own boss.
Zidan, who saw Asyifa running towards him, pressed a button to hold the elevator, so that she could join him.
"Don't run Ashifa, you can fall! Just walk as usual" pinta Zidan worried.
"Finally, thank you Zidan. And I'm sorry that I'm almost late, sir, but today my morning is not as good as the morning before"
"It's okay. But why did you have to run earlier, aren't you afraid of falling? It can harm the child in your womb"
"Sir Zidan knows I'm pregnant? Did your mother tell you?"
"Yes. Last night my mother told me about it, and asked me not to give you too much work, for fear that you would be exhausted"
"Gosh, you're so nice. Oh right, is Mr Zidan not intending to stop being a mother child? If anything, tell me well, I'll gladly accept you as my mother"
"Just boy. Would you take the mother who is the only precious person in my life?"
"Didn't you give me a mother who can't relate well to my parents?"
"Well, then mother be both of us!"
"Okay, deal!"
Asyifa and Zidan suddenly acted like children, shaking hands as a sign of agreeing with the decision made by Zidan.
"But Ashifa, shouldn't you just stop working?"
"Does Mr. Zidan want to fire me?" asyifa asked in shock at Zidan's question, as the two were walking out of the elevator.
"It's not. I've only been thinking about your pregnancy from last night, it would be hard to continue working with such a condition"
"Does Mr. Zidan not matter if I stop working? Isn't it just that our company has received some important cooperation with clients?"
"Of course I'll be in trouble. But there's no way I'm forcing my young pregnant employees to keep working. And for the cooperation I will still take care of myself, and if the clients are not satisfied with the results given, maybe I will let it be canceled only"
"Don't do it, sir! The father is willing to cancel it just like that, you have worked hard to get all that"
"Keep me what? There's no way I can find a replacement secretary in no time"
"Mr doesn't need to find a replacement secretary any time soon, because I'm going to keep working as usual"
"But your pregnancy?"
"I'll only work until I'm six or seven months pregnant. Don't you mind if it's like that?"
"Of course not! I would be very grateful, but would your husband agree with your decision?"
"William agreed. So Mr. Zidan doesn't have to worry"
"Goodoo. Thank you very much Ashifa"
"Sama-sama sir. Then, excuse me for going into my room first"
Zidan looked at Ashifa back with a sad and grateful look. Zidan actually felt very sad when he knew of Ashifa's pregnancy from the mother, because it meant there would be no hope at all for him to be with Asyifa.
It was also possible that the woman would soon stop working, which made Zidan unable to see her face anymore.
But apparently God still gave it six months, so that it could carve the face of Asyifa clearly in his memory.
"At least I still have six months to be able to dispel these feelings for you, and really let you go of my life"
