The Wife You Divorced

The Wife You Divorced
Admire each other


Tonight, Mila is still on the front porch of the Holy Mother's house. He was still staring up at the sky.


Seen in the sky, the full moon was already emitting its radiance. The wind blew hard against Mila's veil.


Mila was still thinking about the words of Holy Mother when she was in the hospital some time ago.


The Holy Mother asked him to be her daughter-in-law. But there has been no response from Zaki to date.


Even so, he did not want to expect anything impossible to happen.


For Mila, having a well-established, handsome, and wealthy husband like Zaki is just a dream.


According to Mila, Zaki is too perfect for Mila. He feels unworthy to be Zaki's wife. Because Mila is already a widow of one child. While Zaki, he's still a bachelor.


Zaki can still get a better girl than Mila, because he's a handsome guy and very perfect.


Why the hell, Holy Mother at that time told me and Mas Zaki to get married. We are not in love with each other. I am also self-aware that I do not deserve to be Mas Zaki's wife. So until now, I don't want to baper with Mas Zaki, even though Mas Zaki is kind and considerate of me. I don't want to put any sense in a man who's not at my level at all, because I don't want to bear the pain of love clapping one hand, ' she said,


inner Mila.


"Mas Zaki, where the hell would a woman like me. There are still many women out there who are more beautiful, better, richer, and more everything than me. Holy Ma'am yes, I want to be with Mas Zaki. But how could Mas Zaki want to have a wife like me. He's the big boss of the company" Mila said.


On the sidelines of Mila daydreaming, Mila was startled by a car horn from outside the gate of the House of Holy Mother.


Mila looked towards the car. Zaki gets out of the car and opens the gate.


Mila did not remain silent. He hurriedly approached Zaki to help him.


"Mila, you haven't slept?" ask Zaki.


"Yet Mas. I'm not sleepy yet" replied Mila.


"Please close the gate later. I'm gonna get in my car."


"Yes, it's."


Zaki reenters the car, while Mila closes the gate again. Afterwards, Mila follows Zaki to the garage.


"Mas, I brought the bag, yes" said Mila.


"Yes Mil."


Milla enters the house with Zaki's briefcase. Meanwhile Zaki stopped his steps after he reached the middle room. He then threw out his body and sat down on the sofa of the living room.


"Mas Zaki, Mas Zaki is sitting here. Mas Zaki does not want to immediately rest in the room?" ask Mila while approaching Zaki.


"Sit down Mil. There is something I want to talk to you about, " said Zaki.


"Yes, it's."


Mila then sat down near Zaki sitting down.


"What's up, Mom? What's Zaki gonna say?" ask Mila curious.


"I want to talk about Mama's wishes Mil."


Mila knitted her brows.


"Holy Mother's Desire? what wish?"


"When I was in the hospital, Mama would have told me that she told us to get married. How do you think Mil?"


Mila was shocked when she heard Zaki's question.


"I guess?"


"Yes. I mean, do you want to marry me Mil?"


Mila was shocked when she heard Zaki say. He had been silent since, unable to answer directly the question from Zaki.


"Mila, why are you quiet?"


"Keep I have to tell you what Mas?"


"Yes, you just answer me whether or not to marry me."


"Mas Zaki is serious about Mas Zaki?" ask Mila.


"Yes, I'm serious about what I said. If you want to marry me, I'm ready Mil. I'm ready to support your inner birth."


"Mas Zaki is convinced by Mas Zaki's words? Mas Zaki wouldn't have gotten away with Mas Zaki choosing me to be Mas Zaki's wife?"


"Not Mil, why am I guilty."


"Mas Zaki think again about this. Married that only once in my lifetime. Don't let Mas Zaki retire because he has chosen me, a mediocre woman. I don't have any privileges. I'm just a village woman, there's nothing special about me Mas" Mila said.


"Out there, there are still many better and more deserving women to be Mas Zaki's wife. I am a widow of one child. While Mas Zaki is still a bachelor. I'm as poor as Mas Zaki is rich. I'm just a country lady..."


Mila is shocked when Zaki suddenly silences her by sticking her index finger to Mila's lips.


"I don't need an opinion from you Mil. I just need one answer from you. Do you want to marry me? you just answer yes or no very hard." Zaki seemed annoyed by Mila's long-winded speech.


Zaki is not the type of man who likes to beat around the bush when giving answers. He is a strict man and does not like complicated.


"I'm..." Mila stopped her words.


"Let's say yes or no. I've given you a month to think about this. The thing is, it's Mama's wish. And I've never disputed what my mama said."


"But we don't love each other. Can we marry without love?"


Zaki smiled.


"You're so innocent Mil. Love can come at any time. Love can come with time. We can try to love each other after we get married. Do you understand what I mean Mil?"


"Yes Mas. I understand. And my answer is..."


"What's your answer?"


"I'd like to marry you on the condition "


"There's condition? what condition?" ask Zaki curiously.


"You want to accept me for who I am. You must also accept my son. Because one day Aluna could ask to come live with me again."


"Yes. That's definitely Mil. I will try to make you happy, Aluna and Mama. Because from now on, you are the most meaningful women in my life."


"Thank you, Mom. It's like a dream for me."


"This isn't Mil's dream. I'm steadfast in my decision, because I've known you for a long time. I already know your nature. You are a good woman and a different woman from other women. Actually I have also started to ignore you for a long time," said Zaki at length.


"Then it's the same. I have also long been ignoring you. But I'm self-aware that I don't deserve you. That's why I tried to shake off the taste in my heart. Because I'm afraid my love is clapping one hand."


"And now, learn to love me. Forget all your past with your ex-husband Adnan. You forget all your memories with him. We can start opening up a new life sheet from scratch."


"God willing. If we are fooled, God will unite us. Moreover, we've already got mother's blessing."


"Yes, you rest. Let's not have bad luck tomorrow. Tomorrow, I'm leaving in the morning. Do not forget, tomorrow wake me up, prepare me to eat, prepare me clothes, because from now on you must learn to serve your future husband well."


Mil smiled. "Yes, it's."


Mila got up from her seat. And so is Zaki. He also stood up. After that Zaki and Mila go to their respective rooms.
