Bound Mumtaz
161. Zayin, the head of the family

Everyone's staring at Zayin, now" Why? Don't you approve of us?" Zahra asked worriedly.

" No, if you want to get married, marry with good intentions and elegance, a respectable older sister doesn't need that ridiculous excuse to tie someone up."

" Even older sisters, which can ask for marriage, om Hito who must propose to Sister properly and appropriately." Zayin's lecture straightforward.

" Zayin, this isn't romantic time." Zahra's Steadfast.

Zayin moved from his seat stepping closer to Zahra with a judging look.

" And this is not the stage of Srimulat, if you want to face Madame Sandra, face it by yourself without the frills of Hartadraja or Arvenio, can't you?"

" Did the youngest genius professor of hospital pride Atma Madina not have the confidence to face mistress Sandra, the designer failed?" Zayin's circus implied scorn.

" If you can't back off, let me deal with it. I'll make sure he's never seen between us again. I Ahmad Muzayyin Hasan abstained from being trampled by any creature and from anywhere on this earth." Zayin's words no one dared to refute including Zahra.

Aura won the battle, and the determination in her eyes should make a sane person never deal with her.

" The choice is, you're alone or not at all." Her index presses Zahra's chest.

Zahra's eyes stared straight at Zayin's chocolate bead, there was no more compromise, Zayin had already decided, and no one could disallow it.

As the eldest son of Zahra is required to be a role model, and an example. Her parents never distinguish gender if it is about self-respect and family, then abstinence for her to let the youngest son keep his family's self-esteem.

The tip of her eyes glanced at the languidly bowed Alfaska.

" I'm being too angry." After considering, his speech asked for an opinion so that it was not him who acted.

" Good, it should be." Answer Zayin.

" I can't guarantee he'll survive." Zahra.

" Don't stop finishing him." Quick reply Zayin.

" He could have been seriously injured, I'm a doctor who knows exactly where to make him permanently paralyzed."

" Let's not forget how much of an insult, his deceit towards Tia, Alfa's tears, my mother's departure. So what part is she pitied." Zayin's provocation. Evil, Zayin is so evil.

" You or me?" Tawar Zayin's.

" He's a girl." Zahra reminded

" And then..." Zayin's eyebrows shot up no matter.

" He's a mother."

" It's not what gave birth to us."

" He's middle-aged."

" He should have repented, not become."

Zahra was silent there was no longer any reason for Zayin not to get out of control.

Alfaska, despite hating his mother, was undeniably worried about Sandra's safety. This is Zayin, not Mumtaz!.

Riak worried that Alfaska could not be separated from Hanna's observation he felt the same thing as Alfaska felt.

" So when will Big Brother act." 

" Faster is better." Zahra.

" I'll be with you." Zayin's Disconnect.

" There's Hito." Rejecting the subtle Zahra, he felt fear for Zayin.

" It's up to you to come along. I'm out of your cab."

" Zayin, uh,..." Zahra licked her lower lip in nervousness.

" He can't get away from me, and I won't let him go unless you can make sure he's out of our sight."

" Allahu Akbar's...Allah Akbar..." Sayup-sayup heard the sound of the dawn Adhan that made them relieved of the tension that occurred.

" We'd better clean ourselves up for prayer." Teddy who is embraced by all.

As soon as the men disband, Hanna immediately pulls Elena, Dewi, Sri and Sherly's mistress to Sandra's house.

" Mom, my sister is indeed outrageous, but rather than him m4ti in their hands we better make him regret and apologize." 

" Come on Hanna they didn't mean to finish Sandra off." Sherly was skeptical.

" I'm not sure they didn't hurt him, you've seen the video. Sheryl." Grumpily Elena.

" And what Mumtaz did to Eric, I'm sure Zayin will be worse." Parau Goddess.

As Sherly's face paled, she was no longer sure of her doubts.

******

At Sandra's house, Hanna's assistant, carrying a large black bag, was waiting for her in the living room.

" Where's your mistress?" Hanna asked the butler.

" He's still sleeping, madam."

Led by Hanna, the mothers walk into Sandra's room.

Byurs....

No hesitation Hanna flushed Sandra who was soundly asleep.

Sandra gasped to her seat, her eyes bulging with large numbers of people in her room.

" What's going on?"

" It's good to sleep after a riot, wake up Lo." Hanna said fiercely.

" I'm awake, what's wrong?"

" Lo spread the video." Angered Hanna as she left her waist.

" How? is he enjoying his fame now?" Syndicated Sandra.

" Because it's only ten minutes."

Sandra puts the shoulder of the bodo period," this is the region of +62, in ten minutes people who are adored like angels will turn out to be hated like set4n."

Hanna shook her head in disbelief Sandra was so b0d0h, "the ten minutes that will put your life in danger, you will m4ti today." 

" Huh, how can it be?" 

" Do you think Zayin or Zahra will just shut up?"

Sandra smiled smirk disparagingly," indeed what they could do to the person who gave birth to Alfaska whom they considered family."

The smile Hanna replied did not lose a smirk." Heh, Lo is too confident, even Alfaska himself is raging and does not hesitate to give you punishment, let alone those who are not Lo's biological children."

Sandra's wide-eyed in disbelief," but she's not here..."

" It was because Mumtaz prevented it, but another story if this involved Zayin, he had not been reluctant to oppose Lo, so he would not hesitate to hurt Lo."

" Let him come." Challenge Sandra.

" Lo is..." Hanna's been grumbling to Sandra.

" It's Hanna, what do you care about her for, maybe it's good that she doesn't last long in this world." Sri Sarkas is irritated.

" Sir..."

" So this is what you're planning, Sandra. Embarrassing. Shaming Mumtaz means you're humiliating your son."

" Why are you guys getting hitched."

Already unable to stand Sandra's arrogance, Sri hit Sandra using a small pillow in front of her, Sandra could only accept the attack in surprise.

" You know Zahra's my man-to-be granddaughter, and you dare insult her, you don't know she can do anything that would put your life at risk, for her you're just a lump of dead anchovy." Sri said annoyed.

" If Zayin wants to give him a reply, I support him." Elena Timpal.

Hanna turned around confused by the change in attitude of the mothers, "why did you guys turn angry?"

" We haven't changed, you don't ask our opinion, just pull it here." Answer Goddess.

" Wi, this is your colleague."

" That should not hurt our family, and you're Sandra, this is the first and last warning, if in the future you dare insult Zahra or others you're dealing with me." Firm Goddess.

All who were there were silent with the anger of Dewi Hartadraja, middle-aged woman who was auspicious and quiet at this time was seen riding apitam.

" And watch your mouth, you're old don't deserve a julid, let alone being a young man, huh." Immediately after saying that Dewi invited Sri out of the room.

" You know, Dressazaga, Mumtaz is our dream ghost candidate, you better keep your mouth shut. Only the b0d0h do business with Navarro." Cela Elena follows the Goddess.

 " So Sandra, you've been abandoned by them, you're exhausted now, the name Atma Madina is no longer a scary name, all because of you, sickening, disillusioned with you." Tukas Sheryl.

******

Zayin folded the prayer rugs after observing the Qur'an, this room was quiet after Zayin forced them all to perform congregational prayers in the mosque and rest.

" Eugh..." The moaning sound of the latter drew him to approach the gurney.

" A is awake."

Mumtaz watched the room, then turned to Zayin who was standing next to him.

" It's..."

" Aa fainted." Zayin pulled up the chair and sat down across it staring intensely at Mumtaz who gave an ordinary look like there was no problem.

" Abn..."

" All right, everything's fine, Aa's lying on the bed." Zayin Sarcas.

" Aiin, uh,..."

" Hmm?"

" You saw what happened that day?" Ask Mumtaz carefully

Zayin looked at him sharply before answering." Not the whole, just the mother's part stabbed, and the other." His words were relaxed.

" Why didn't you say."

" Did Aa say what Aa knew and felt?" zayin's backlash was piqued.

Mumtaz, who understood his sister was offended, inched to correct his sleeping position in order to see Zayin.

" Yin,..."

" Ayin thought, we have no secrets, but Aa still considers Ayin an unreliable little boy." He said full of disappointment.

" It's not so, it's,..."

" A, we don't have parents anymore, if we don't take care of each other, who else. How can Ayin protect Aa if Ayin herself doesn't know Aa's problem." Sela Zayin's.

" But no problem, Ayin will prove that Ayin is now the man who can be the head of the family, as long as he is lying here, take your time off, let Ayin handle everything."

Mumtaz shook his head," Ayin, you said it was just a big brother problem with Aunt Sandra, why graze on the others?"

" What?"

" Stop thinking of others, now think of yourself, you're not an angel who won't get sick. It's decided, don't make Ayin recklessly do something you'll regret." Remembering Zayin, Mumtaz nodded.

Zayin stood up" Ayin would call the doctor and call them if Aa was conscious, it was their trust, Aa would know from them." Zayin pressed the button, then exited the room to call.

At the cafe Solumate, two groups of adult and younger men clustered in two separate tables still looking at their phones each commenting on the video they were watching.

" I can't imagine how much Zahra could get into the lake." Renung Heru rubbed his face rough.

" Don't be angry, To. but we have to thank the Gurman duo, otherwise they could be another story. I mean Lo and Zahra won't get any better." Ocean Error.

" The Si4l, my rivals are getting more and more." It's Dominiaz's curse that got a splash on his back from the Ocean.

" Temen Lo's getting tangled up, should you say that?" Heru Seru.

" Where do you know they're with Zahra?"

" I know, anyway." Dominiaz replied reluctantly explaining further that he often saw Rodrigo and Raul staring at Zahra with a warm gaze.

" Keep what'll you do, To? This rumor can not be left alone, Zahra's image will be damaged considering Gonzalez is still warm to talk." Ask Heru.

Hito nibbled his temples riled." I'll ask them what happened that day." 

On another table the higher-ups of RaHasiYa stared in the Gods, Dimas.

" I was going to tell you, if the problem of Ayu vs. bang Ibnu was covered with the problem of bang Mumtaz vs. Madam Sandra, their problem was covered with news Zahra and om Raul, ' he said ,but you guys don't give me time to talk."

" And you're not doing anything about this?"

" I've been watching through the local camera, their gesture leads to the opinion of people who are only suspicious of them being involved in romantic relationships, and this is best as a diversion of issues." Bright God.

" Seeing from the comments of netizens, they responded well to the romantic story" said Dimas.

" The development of our opinion poll is monitored through comments, if it is felt to begin to unsettle new actions, so far only this we can use."

" I agree, Ayu at school was under intense pressure and ridicule, under the leadership of Andromeda Genk BIBA can overcome the spread of the news following unclear ingredients directly acted on either from BIBA school or outside school." Nando.

Ibnu restored his hair with a huff," why so big like this, I just anter he came home, that's also he who asked."

" Your news was close when High School used to be spread, and Lo turned back the same time he coincided Ayu self-proclaimed over Lo, if Lo forgot, bang." Cynical Nando.

" Btw, why is Lo still here, you have to pick up Ayu, right before you go to school?" Daniel asked Nando.

" Said bang Zayin he who nganter pick up Ayu, I was just told to monitor Ayu during the school doang."

" Zayin?" RaHasiYa's higher-ups looked at each other, then breathed a little relief.

" Why do I feel relieved zayin who accompanied Ayu rather than Nando ya." Mumbled Daniel.

" What drama will Zayin play in school." Renung Alfaskan.

Derr...

Nando answered the incoming call on his phone." Sorry bang, I should go. Bang Zayin called me." Nando moved towards the door.

His steps stopped right he opened the door of the cafe when he remembered a message from Zayin.

" Said bang Zayin, bang Mumtaz is conscious." They were stunned, a second later scrambling out of the cafe where the next table was empty.

In the canteen of Zahra's hospital were interrogated by Eidelweis, Julia, and Nadya. They already knew about the video on the lake.

" So that's the story." Tukas Zahra ended the story that happened in the lake.

" Ra, if you have a problem coming to mbak, or Edel. Don't think for yourself let alone run away like this." Julia.

" Mas Heru even forbid Hito's brother to bring a car afraid of accidents again, considering the glass my brother had." Eidelweis.

" At Grandma's house, all the items near her were thrown until the Damar bang hit her just stopped smacking." Nadya.

Zahra let out a heavy sigh, "I still had something to worry about, so I didn't dare come straight to Hito's sister." Said slowly.

" Yeah...." Eidelweis closed his mouth in surprise when he realized something.

" Why the Lo Del, the habit of his own excitement." Omelette Julia.

Eidelweis pointed to the clothes that Zahra was wearing." That's Hito's shirt isn't it, mbak?" 

" Where do you know, mbak not so unfortunately the same as he to watch his clothes."

Eidelweis snickered, "Ra?"

Zahra nodded." This is Hito's shirt, I'm a minjem."

" So you guys are better?" Search Nadya.

" It's been."

" What problem did you say you talked about?" Ask Eidelweis.

" All is clear."

" Thankfully. Ra, your relationship with Hito is not a relationship without a direction to the level of marriage, indeed love is a strong foundation in building a household, but communication and trust are strong pillars in maintaining that household. If there's something that gets stuck, talk about it, don't save yourself that ends up being an atomic bomb in your relationship." Julia's Advice.

" Yes, madam. I'll remember his advice." 

" Sir, Mas Heru sent a message that Mumtaz was conscious." Eidelweis showed me his cell phone.

Zahra immediately ran towards the elevator without waiting for her brother-in-law.

They shook their heads, "luckily, dear, if not fired even though the new candidate-in-law." Julia muttered.

***

Brakes....

Everyone entered the room breathlessly, staring at Mumtaz sitting down chewing on an apple that Aryan had peeled off.

" Yes, um,..." Lirih Ibn immediately walked to the gurney and hugged Mumtaz who was immediately replied by him.

" I'm sorry, I promise I won't try to remember what I've forgotten, if it's for you to suffer."

" It's okay, but don't push yourself until you get sick like yesterday."

" You also don't think you're responsible for the deaths of father and mother, I know it's not you that I don't know how they died yet."

" Nu, um,..." Rintih Mumtaz is back.

Ibn broke his embrace, looking at Mumtaz who looked pitiful." Muys... Even if you are responsible, there must be a reason. And I'm just gonna explain it all." 

Mumtaz shook his head slowly, "you shouldn't forgive me."

" Muy, me and your sister Dafi, right?"

Mumtaz's eyes circled the room looking at his companions one by one, ending up focused on Gaddafi who was already crying in Daniel's embrace.

" Do you still want to consider me your family even though I'm a murderer?" His eyes were already teary-eyed worried about the rejection of his companions.

Without the words Alfaska, Daniel, and Bara even Rizal and Ubay simultaneously hugged Mumtaz. The young men were crying.

The fathers who watched unabashedly also shed their tears.

Even with Zahra who saw it from the doorway.

Hito approached him, then clasped his hand.

" Are you now aware that you have us to share the distress?" Whisper, Zahra nodded her head. 

Zayin, who had just come out of the bathroom, looked at them in confusion, then approached and embraced Gaddafi, who stood alone in the middle of the room.

" Have you guys turned into teletubies?" Amusedly.

They took off the hug, and immediately gave a resentful delicacy to Zayin who ruined the haru moment between them.

" Where are you going? It's neat." wondered Zahra who was sitting on the side chair of the gurney drove away Daniel who was originally sitting there.

Observing Zayin who was dressed in a black green flannel shirt lining a black t-shirt with jeans.

" Want to Teddy's father's house, pick up the remaining angel-fucked by his bluff for preferring the ugly look of the cungkring." The point is to Ibn.

" You are insinuating Ibn?" Ask Zahra frankly.

 Zayin put his shoulders back and forth, "is there anything more b0d0h than him here?" Cynical Zayin.

" What about Aunt Sandra's house?

Zayin laughed a sardonic smirk as he walked over to the fathers sitting on the sofa.

" Did you see the mothers are here? They left who most likely was hiding him."

" Behold, no matter how close our relationship is, these conglomerates choose to secure their fellow communities no matter how evil the person is." Press it.

" In the end we are only outsiders who can at times become strangers if they don't need us anymore." Sarcasnya skeptical, then laugh containing irony.

" Mommy, don't draw your own conclusions." Tegur Aryan did not like the words of Zayin.

" That's what Ayin understands, Papi. Either way, 99% percent edge Ayin believes the mother is hiding Madina Atma's mistress, like it could work." He doubted Hanna's efforts.

" Zayin.." reprimanded Daniel.

" That's it, if you don't accept that statement doesn't matter. We are marginalized people who you do not usually hear."

There was a door opened that showed Sri's grandmother, Dewi, and Elena looking at Zayin with a sad look, when they were about to open the door they heard Zayin's words. Zayin was stunned to find them here.

Sri approached Zayin, then patted her cheek gently with affection." You, and your family must be very disappointed in us, can you forgive us?"

Zayin stood misbehaving, he was uncomfortable when someone older apologized to him.

" Don't think about it, madam. We understand why you're being so offensive to us" he said with a wound.

" Mrs." Sri smiled miris. " Can't you call me Nebuy, like Adgar."

" It's too early, ma'am. Sandra used to apologize as if she deeply regretted what she did, but look what she's doing now, she's hurt my three brothers so easily." Zayin.

" Even so, I appreciate the change in your attitude towards my sister." Zayin kissed the back of Sri's hand with ta'dzim.

" Aaa.why are you so sweet, Zayin. If Lia hadn't been so cute with your sister, Auntie would have happily chosen you to be your dream ghost candidate." Elena Elu.

" No, no, Tan. Zayin's my future ghost." Sewot.

" Cih, a young child like a seed of an ijo bean has been betrothed." snorted Elena.

Zayin chuckles amusedly." Sorry Auntie, Aunt's daughter is beautiful, but her behavior is not much different from the other three leaks make me ilfil to her, so I refuse."

" Hahahaha, look, Zayin prefers my small, cute, and playful Adel." Eidelweis laughed with satisfaction.

" Sister, don't slander." Zayin's assertion was to silence Eidelweis' mouth.

" Oh yes Aunt Julia, if today there are some drama scenes at school, please ignore. Because today I want to make sure their mouths are tight as well as taped with wood glue."

" I'm coming with you." Adgar moved closer to Zayin.

" All right, we'll excuse us for picking up my future mother-to-be." His eyes glanced defiantly at Ibnu whose face was already murky.

" Julia, papa thinks you should go to school today, one Zayin alone can certainly be horrendous, this with Adgar. make sure there are no legal prosecutions either to the school or them." Aznan said...
