Trapped in Love Mbak
40. Standby Husband

...Happy Reading's...

...****************...

After returning from the hospital, Kezia daydreamed more. This made Abizar wonder. Was his actions last night so outrageous? Or is Kezia feeling sorry?

"Sir, eat first, yes. That abis took her vitamins!" abizar's decree made the daydreaming Kezia suddenly aghast. "What daydream, anyway?" abizar asked while carrying a tray containing food from outside his room.

"No dreaming, really. I'm just surprised you suddenly entered the room without hitting the door first" Kezia said with a clumsy smile.

Abizar sat down beside Kezia who was sitting leaning on the head of his bed, then scooped the chicken porridge he was carrying and thrust it into Kezia's mouth. Abizar was going to feed his wife.

"Come, open his mouth!" pinta Abizar's.

"I can do it myself, really." Kezia pulled back his head, then attempted to seize the bowl held by Abizar. But quickly the man avoided. Keep the bowl out of Kezia's reach.

"I was the bribe. It's just so hard to stay!" chirps Abizar.

Kezia grunting. Again she could not refuse the command of her coercive husband.

"Sorry, yes, Ma'am. I made you last night. Mommy's stomach is getting cramped." In the first mouthful, Abizar said so.

Kezia was stunned for a while before he chewed on the food that had just entered his mouth. Both of his eyes looked at Abizar's handsome face intently.

"Everything happened. No need to regret," said Kezia later.

"Yes." Yeah." Abizar smiled as he pushed back the second spoon to feed Kezia.

Kezia's heart warmed up instantly. There was a great regret in the eyes of Abizar. That meant, the man was really worried about him. Kezia's heart was slightly filled with her husband's attitude.

"Oh, yes. From now on Mabak should pay more attention to the condition of Mbak and the child in this stomach." Abizar gave a gentle swab on Kezia's stomach, "excuse me papa, yes. During this time papa never follow your development," said Abizar as if to invite his son to talk.

Kezia just kept quiet, feeling a different thump in his heart rate. Abizar's touch seemed to soften the lump of flesh that had frozen inside his chest. Opening the door of Kezia's locked heart to love. Has Kezia accepted Abizar to fill his throne? The question raged in Kezia's mind.

"From now on I'll take care of Mama and our son. I promise," said Abizar looking sincere.

"Don't just say a promise, if you can't keep it."

"When do I keep my promise? As a real man, I never renege on a promise" Abizar said.

"But after I give birth, we'll get divorced. This kid will come with me."

Hearing that Abizar fell silent. He forgot his agreement with Kezia. "Yes ..at least until we get divorced. I will try to take care of you, " Abizar said a little forced. I don't know why his heart hurt so much when he said it. As if not willing if Kezia will go in his life.

Orange-colored sky painted on the western horizon. Dusk looks beautiful with the rest of the sunlight that slowly hides. Kezia was enjoying the view on the balcony of his room facing west. Both of his eyes closed for a moment, feeling a wisp of wind that gently swept across his face. Until someone threw a small pebble at him, leaving Kezia's eyes open for a moment. Kezia's gaze immediately turned towards the bottom. There was a Devan as the culprit.

"Hi, Van. I enjoyed the afternoon breeze. That's a big deal" Kezia replied. His eyes sparkled when he met Devan again. For a few days he had not met the man. Abizar's existence at his side, making Kezia difficult to meet his best friend.

"A afternoon walk, yuk! Good, tuh, for pregnant women," asked Devan.

"Come on! Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes." Without a second thought, Kezia immediately accepted Devan's invitation. With spirit he turned his body. However, his body suddenly petrified when he saw the figure of Abizar already standing while leaning on the balcony door. His hands were folded in front of his chest, with an intimidating look, as if he wanted to judge his wife.

"Where are you going, Ma'am?" ask Abizar.

"Abi ... since when were you there?" Kezia asked back.

"Jawab first question me, Ma'am! Where are you going Bang Devan?" cecar Abizar's.

Kezia swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. My husband heard everything.

"Ehm. Devan makes sure I take an afternoon walk. We haven't done that for a long time. Usually he always nemenin me," explained Kezia a little doubtful. Her husband's gaze really made his tongue stiff.

"From now on the streets are the same as me. I'll accompany you wherever you want. Including morning and afternoon walking, as well as pregnancy exercises that often follow. I will also deliver shopping for our children's needs. As long as you know, I have been searching a lot of things about pregnancy and what kind of birthing process. So, from now on I will be the husband on standby for Mbak, not Bang Devan," Abizar said at length. His tone implied a great jealousy.

Kezia was amazed to hear it. What kind of a demon is her husband?

Abizar really listened to the doctor's words about pregnancy. He suddenly becomes a standby husband who cares so much about the health of Kezia and her son.

"But Devan is waiting for me downstairs" said Kezia.

"Say not be!"

Kezia gave a rough sigh. He also had to obey Abizar's words. He turned to the balcony to talk to Devan, but the man had already left. Looks like Devan's been waiting for Kezia in front of his house. Kezia took the initiative to call him.

"Sorry, yes, Van. Next time, deh, we go together again" Kezia said after hearing Devan's response to his refusal by phone. Although a little disappointed, Devan could not force Kezia. He is aware of his position. Kezia ended the conversation with regret. He felt bad for Devan.

"Udah?" Abizar asked after Kezia finished calling Devan. The woman nodded her head in response, "that's why we're leaving now!" take Abizar with a fluffy smile. His hand hugged Kezia's shoulder from the side, then herded the woman's body out of the room.

However, only a few steps of their feet were walking. The ringing sound of Abizar's cell phone rang in Abizar's pants pocket.

"Just a second!" Abizar immediately let go of his hold on Kezia's shoulder, then reached into his pants pocket to pick up the flat object there. After Abizar saw the screen of his phone, it turned out that it was a video call from Selena, making both of Abizar's eyes widen instantly.

Kezia wondered who called Abizar. He also peeked at the phone screen that was still plastered in front of Abizar. His forehead creased as he looked at the caller with the name 'My Lovely' on the screen. The disappointment was immediately imprinted on Kezia's face. She believes that the one who contacted her husband was Abizar's lover who had been told before by the man.

Kezia was feeling hurt. The feeling was like being tossed high, then thrown again.
