Arash opened his eyes. The man felt a little dizzy when he woke up.
"Akkkhh .." Arash grimaced softly, as he sat his body on the bed.
Arash sighed softly, remembering what happened last night. Yes, Arash felt that he was dreaming about the Princess. The princess came and hugged her body all night.
Arash breathed heavily. The man smiled at the thought that everything was a dream.
Wait, if all that was just a dream? But why does it feel so real?
That kiss! The kiss also felt very real. The damp and wet taste of the lips that Arash smelled, it all felt real. The tears on Arash's cheeks as they kissed, also felt very real. Not only that, even the warm embrace that Arash felt all night, also felt very real. Can dreams feel that real?
Tok ... tok …
Arash turned to the door of his room that was knocked, a few seconds later the door of the room was opened and showed Zia entering his room.
"You're awake, Mom?" asked Zia with a smile.
Arash scrunched his forehead. He looked at Zia's face carefully. Seeing if what he felt was not a mistake like that.
"What's up, Mom?" zia asked with her innocent face and walked towards the man.
"There's nothing!" Arash turned to look at the nightstand, the man still saw the medicine Zia gave him last night and he did not drink. That means, if no one goes into his room.
Or does? Did anyone actually enter his room?
"Wasn't taking his medicine?" asked Zia as she put the porridge on the nightstand.
Arash frowned, staring at Zia's face. Didn't that girl really go inside her room last night?
"Emm, can I ask you something?" ask Arash to Zia.
"What do you want to ask, Mom?" Zia was still standing beside Arash's bed.
"Did you come in here last night??" ask Arash to make sure.
"Last night?" Zia scrunched her forehead. The girl as much as possible tried to stay calm. "Yes, I entered your room while giving you porridge and medicine" Zia replied. "Didn't you remember??"
"Not that. But after that. Are you back in my room?" tanya Arash made sure to come back.
"none. Why is it, Mas??" Zia pretended not to know what her husband meant.
Arash shook his head slowly. "Nothing."
"What about your fever, Mom? Is it down?" asked Zia who was about to touch Arash's forehead.
Arash also brushed off the hand of Zia who wanted to touch her forehead. The man felt that Zia did not need to check the condition of his body.
"I'm fine already" replied Arash with a cold and flat face.
Zia could only let out a slow sigh while getting a very unpleasant treatment and making her heart ache. But, yeah, that's it. Just understand. After all, Arash had already said from the beginning of their marriage, if Zia did not need to interfere in Arash's personal affairs, except when it came to Rayyan and Yumna.
"Oh yeah, Mama called this morning. She said Sifa went to the hospital. It is likely that Sifa will give birth today" Zia told reporters.
"Alhamdulillah. Hopefully everything will be launched" said Arash slowly.
"Emm, can I go to the hospital? To visit Sifa Ma'am???" zia permission.
Arash raised his eyebrows next door, the man glanced at Zia while smiling obliquely.
"When do you have to say goodbye to me?" asked Arash cynically. "Don't I say, do what you do. Go where you like. All of that you can do as long as your duty as a mother for Rayyan and Yumna has been done," said Arash firmly.
"Actually I'm not saying goodbye to you, Mom. But, I was just asking, do you want to come with me?" sahut Zia's.
Zia bit her inner lips, restraining the suddenly burning emotions in her heart.
"Well if you don't want to go. I can go by myself" Zia said and turned away from Arash. "Ah yes, if mama asks about you. Then I'll say if you're sick right now."
After saying the thing that made Arash look more and more at Zia sharply, the girl also walked out of the husband's room.
"Basic sucks. Selfish. Be stubborn!" growled Zia with reddened and teary eyes.
Zia walked towards the kitchen, to ask Yuyun to prepare the porridge that she would take to the hospital for Sifa. Zia also glanced at the trash can in the kitchen, where there was still a packet of drugs that Zia threw away last night.
Yes, Arash managed to take his medicine last night said Zia. However, because Zia does not want to be caught by Arash, so the girl puts the new medicine back on the nightstand, replacing the medicine that Arash had taken thanks to Zia's help last night.
"I should've let him be in pain last night."

Zia's arrival at the hospital was warmly welcomed by Mama Kesya and others. They already knew how Arash and Zia were related, for that no one asked Zia about Arash's current whereabouts. Yes, it was deliberately done so that Zia's feelings were not hurt by the questions they gave.
"Thank you for the porridge, Zi," said Mama Kesya as she gently stroked Zia's hair.
"Together, Mother. How's it feel?? Yummy?" ask Zia to make sure.
"Great son. Is this really you cooking?" ask Mama Kesya back.
Zia smiled as she nodded her head. "Yes, Ma. Zia was secretly learning to cook, so that Rayyan and Yumna could enjoy Zia's cooking," Zia said.
"Well, you are indeed an amazing mother, Zi. But baby, the man who married you is really stupid. Really stupid," said Mama Kesya who looks upset with the nature of the son.
Arash had told Mama Kesya and the rest of the family that he married Zia only because of Rayyan and Yumna. The man wanted Rayyan and Yumna to be able to get a mother's affection, and it came from Zia who looked sincerely affectionate towards her two children. After all, Rayyan and Yumna seemed unable to escape from Zia's embrace. That was the reason Arash married Zia, aside from being behind his anger on the day that Arash challenged Zia to be his wife.
Zia just smiled hearing what Mama Kesya had just said. And in reality, Arash is a foolish man who cannot see Zia's true love.
"Mama hopes, if someday Arash's heart door can be knocked by the sincerity you give, Zi," said Mama Kesya while stroking Zia's hair.
Again Zia could only smile, because the girl could not expect more like what Mama Kesya wanted. There seems to be no room for Zia to be in Arash's heart.
"Ma, Sifa seems to have to be operated on," said Anggel who had just approached Mama Kesya and Zia.
"Operation?" Mama Kesya was really surprised. "How come? Shouldn't Sifa be able to give birth normally? What's going on?" ask Mama Kesya to Anggel.
"The condition of the baby that Sifa is currently located breech, Ma. Maybe because the baby in Sifa's stomach was looking for a way out, then the position that was originally normal, became changed. So, because Sifa's body condition had weakened and Abash continued to cry because he could not bear to see Sifa in pain, we decided to perform a caesarean section to Sifa. What do you think, Mama?" ask Anggel while explaining Sifa's current condition.
Mama Kesya also sighed slowly. "Do your best, An. Save Sifa and also your granddaughter."
Zia stared fixedly at Mama Kesya's face as she said that. Very beautiful sounding words entered his ears. Will those words also be able to he listen to someday?
But, it felt like Zia would never hear those words, because it seemed like Arash's and her relationship would never work out.
"Zi, Mama look at Sifa's condition first, huh?" pamit Mama Kesya who is possessed by Zia.
"Yes, Ma."
Zia stared at Mama Kesya's departure with a sad look. The girl really hoped that if she could hear such a melodious sentence like what Mama Kesya said earlier.
"Hi" said a man whose voice Zia memorized.
Zia turned towards the source of the voice. He smiled at the man who currently looked more mature and handsome than six months ago.
"Hi, Bra!"
