Village Girl With a Million Dreams
Chapter 37 (Well to Do)
Malik ignored Adam who just left him and Ayu. Malik sat next to Ayu. He was still worried because Ayu was still sleeping. He remembers that Ayu hasn't eaten anything since last night.
Ayu fell asleep when she reached Malik's place. It was heartless to wake Ayu up and finally Malik let Ayu sleep on an empty stomach. Now Malik regretted, because Ayu became sick and weak.

Sarah sees Adam coming out of Malik's room. His eyes were curious about what was happening inside. Sarah is a very polite person, because Malik did not invite her in. He decided to wait for Adam in the guest room.
“ She's fine. But you know, if he hadn't realized, we wouldn't have left his place” Adam decided to sit next to his wife.
“ Who is it? Is Malik now with someone?” Sarah was getting curious, she was still guessing who Adam meant.
“ Ayuna” Adam pressed his pronunciation, making his wife's eyes round. Sarah closed her mouth with both hands.
“ What happened there?” Sarah did not believe what Adam said. Malik is not the kind of person who does what he wants.
“ Surely Malik has already paid him. He was very weak, Ayu was still very small” Adam shook his head in disbelief.
“ Malik won't do terrible thing dear” Sarah still can't believe. “ Surely you just misjudged him” Sarah tried to convince herself that Malik would not tarnish her little girl.
Malik is an honorable man in Sarah's eyes. Never once did Sarah see Malik doing anything bad.
Dam.....Adam.... Dam... (Sounds Malik screaming)
“ You heard, he must be sorry now for doing such a terrible thing dear” Adam pulled Sarah's hand and took her to Malik's room.
Adam wanted to prove that his words were not fabricated. Sarah clutched tightly into Adam's hand, she was shocked to see Ayu who had just regained consciousness. Still looks pale Ayu's face. Sarah thought a lot of things were happening. He shuddered in horror at what was happening.
“ Ayu already aware, quickly check” Malik pulled Adam to check Ayu immediately. Adam swiftly and professionally examined Ayu as his patient.
“ How does it feel?” Adam pressed Ayu's stomach with his hand. It looks like Ayu grimaced with pain.
“ He just catch a cold. Lack of fluids and need food intake Dear Mr. Malik” Adam put a fierce face in front of Malik. He doesn't like what Malik does.
Malik scrunched his forehead, not usually Adam and Sarah looked at Malik with their cynical gazes. Whatever happens they will always be friendly with Malik.
“ What's up? Why look at me like that?” Malik threw his face away. His two best friends seem to think things are not-no, and Malik has guessed it from their faces.

Mamih walks in a hurry after finding an herbal remedy that she used to use to lower the heat if Malik or his father is sick.
His lips smiled as Malik finally proved to be normal. All this time Mamih was worried that Malik did not like women. Every time Mamih introduces her to a beautiful girl, Malik will reject her for many reasons.
And last time Malik told Mamih that he was not interested in any girls. Mamih shuddered to remember the words of her only child. He is the heir to his family's kingdom. What would happen if Malik to like same-sex.
Sarah and Adam looked at each other, they didn't know what was going to happen. Now things are getting stressful. Adam and Sarah are silent and decide not to interfere with what will happen.
Although not spoken, the two can understand each other's heart with the eyes and face. Love is sometimes beyond common sense.
“Ini” With a breath of decapitation Mamih thrusting herbal medicine on Malik.
“ Loh there are Adam and Sarah also” Mamih sitting resting her legs that hurt because of walking far enough.
Sarah circulated her smile to Malik, Adam and Mamih. He was very relieved because it turned out that what they imagined did not happen.
Sarah hugged Mamih who had just arrived. She crouches down and tries to help Mamih manage her still irregular breathing.
Hah..you must be ashamed because you have thought the no-no. Where could I hurt Ayu, she's worth more than anything (Sound of Heart Malik)
Engraved with a smile on Malik's lips, he was relieved that Ayu was fine. Malik immediately took a bowl of chicken soup complete with rice and water.
Malik slowly and painstakingly fed the rice to Ayu. No rejection, Ayu must appreciate the people who love her very much.
“ You have to change my time and Sarah's doctor that you took” Adam grumbled at Malik and tried to take advantage of the situation so that Malik was kind as usual.
“ Just say if you want to leave” Malik has guessed the contents of Adam's head, he is always looking for profit. His hands were still busy feeding the soup to Ayu.
“ Today me and Sarah are off, and look at Mih. Malik always messed up my plans with Sarah” Adam complaining to Mamih the behavior of his only child.
Mamih only smiled, not once twice did they argue and fight. Mamih has memorized the behavior of these two children. Adam is considered part of the family.
Adam has helped Mamih look after Malik while studying in Germany. Adam was a good and trustworthy boy. That's one of the reasons Malik's father raised Adam as the head of the hospital.
“ Don't sulk. Go, and do what you were thinking. Make your life happy with many children” Malik said without taking his eyes off Ayu.
Sarah's face met red, she was very embarrassed because it turns out Malik knew what was in his brain and Adam's brain.
“ Really? How long?” Adam turned around and hugged Malik from behind. His behavior invites a smile on Ayu's lips.
As Ayu is seen enjoying Adam's silliness, Malik lets Adam hug and does not avoid it. Not as usual, if there's no Ayu. Adam will apes get bogem from Malik's burly hands.
“ Only 5 days, after that work well” Malik still not struggling with Adam who wrestled in his arms.
“ Brother, I'm full” Ayu just spent a little rice and soup that Malik made. Malik immediately finished, he knew it did not taste good if forced to eat even though he felt full.
“ Is it better?” Ayu was embarrassed because all eyes were looking at her.
“ Ayu is fine Kak” Ayu forced a smile, she did not want to make others worry about her condition.
