Daniel immediately got out of the car and ran into the mansion. He quickly ran to the room and sure enough there was his Umi there and also Zahra who seemed to be lying on the bed.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Umi. What's up?" ask Daniel while breathing.
"Wa'alaikumusalam warohmatulli wabarakatuh. Your wife is just exhausted. A little dehydrated and also a little less rest." Daniel nodded in understanding listening to the explanation from his Umi. He went up to the bed to sit next to Zahra who was still lying down.
"When will he wake up?" daniel looked at Zahra's pale face.
"Maybe in a moment, the doctor has given her vitamins. Umi went to the kitchen to ask the waiters to make some soup. You stay here well, accompany your wife." Aisyah stood up and left Daniel who was still focused on looking at Zahra's face.
He laid his body around his wife.
"I'm sorry."
"You must think I'm staying away from you because I don't like you. I like you, you're sweet and adorable and that's why I don't want to hurt you until I hurt you. I'm sorry."
Daniel stared at the ceiling of the room sighing heavily. He got up from his bed and went to the bathroom. He needed something to refresh his brain.
A few minutes later.
Daniel's out of the bathroom. He went straight into the dressing room and put on his clothes. After she finished getting dressed, she looked at the bed. His wife looked squirming while muttering indistinctly.
"Sweetie, are you awake?" daniel asked, helping Zahra to sit down.
"Drink this" said Daniel, giving Zahra a glass of water. The girl just silently received the water and gulped it down.
"You okay, sweetie?" daniel asked while tidying up Zahra's messy hair.
"Yes, I'm fine."
Daniel sighed heavily, his wife's tone of voice was so cold. "Well, if you're okay, I'll call Mr. Lim to bring you some food. The doctor said you needed intake."
Zahra simply nodded with no intention of answering or opening her voice.
"I'm sorry" said Daniel, holding Zahra's hand. The girl looked at her husband who was suddenly apologetic.
"What mistake did Hubby make to apologize?" ask Zahra. It is easy to say sorry, but before that it is better to ask the person what his mistake was until he apologized. Do not let the person say an apology but do not know what his mistake is until in the future the same mistake will be repeated again.
"I'm guilty. I'm staying away from you. You must be thinking hard why I'm staying away from you, so you're sick."
"I don't expect you to come near me or away from me. I just feel like you hate me because you suddenly changed, Hubby. Didn't you promise to change for the better with me. Didn't we promise to live it together, but why are you now moving away? Do you hate me?" lirih Zahra's. Daniel's gentle treatment made him feel a sense of protection from those closest to him. So when Daniel walked away from him he felt empty.
"Not so, sweetie. I don't hate you, I don't hate you at all. I just don't want to hurt you. Every time I try to touch you those memories of the past will haunt me and at that moment I want to kill you."
Deg
"You hear me, I want to kill you! That's why I stayed away."
Zahra froze at Daniel's explanation. So, all this time the man stayed away from her because he wanted to protect her.
"Don't stay away from me! If you want to change, don't stay away from me! We pass together. You chose me as your wife then you should also be able to refrain from the whispers of the shaitan."
"But what if I suddenly hurt you?" daniel's question made Zahra fall silent again.
Wounded me? What am I supposed to do? On one hand I feel sorry for him who looks tormented but on the other hand I don't want to get hurt either. Dear God, give the best path for both of us.
"I'll stop you. I won't let you hurt me, I'll stop you if you dare to hurt me." Daniel looked into his wife's eyes. What did the girl think to challenge death.
"But I can't."
"You should be able to! I can!" press Zahra to convince Daniel. If there is a desire to eat everything will go properly.
"I'll help you. I promise."
"Thank you." Daniel hugged Zahra tightly, a warm feeling that once again enveloped his soul. Comfort and also calm.
*******
The day had changed at exactly 12 p.m. Zahra had fallen asleep, but at her side there was no Daniel lying down. Where is that man?
Zahra squirms, she sits down from her bed because she suddenly wants to pee. Zahra went straight to the bathroom to urinate.
From the bathroom, Zahra walked back to the bed. His eyes were looking for Daniel. The man was not in the room.
Zahra thought it was possible that Daniel had another job. The sleepiness was too heavy for him to choose to sleep again.
Next day.
Zahra had finished her morning prayers and was in the kitchen cooking breakfast while Daniel still had not returned from the mosque.
When Zahra opened her eyes, Daniel was by her side. Out of nowhere the man was, he slept with irregular breaths. Like fatigue.
"Akhhhhh!!!"
The sound of screaming coming from behind the mansion made Zahra curious. The servants flocked running to the back of the house as well as Aisyah.
"What's wrong?" ask Aisyah.
"A-there's bodies! There's a body hanging in the tree!" the waiter shouted in a trembling tone making Zahra surprised and scared.
A body? Daniel disappeared last night. What possible?
"What's up, Umi?" malik asked who had just returned from the mosque with Daniel and Mr Lim.
Zahra glanced at her husband who looked mediocre.
"There's a body" Zahra said, making Daniel turn to him.
"Corpse?" ask Malik.
Malik also walked closer to the tree whose leaves were lush and sure enough. There was a female corpse with a terrible condition and a position hanging on the tree. From a distance can not be seen but if it is close we will be surprised.
Zahra kept looking at Daniel for the wound on the man's arm.
Like a scratch.
Did Daniel do it?
"How, Bi?" ask Daniel.
"really. There's a body here. Mr Lim ordered all the servants to gather in my study and the guards!" malik's Edit.
"Good sir."
"Daniel take your wife upstairs. Let Abi take care of this."
"Good."
Daniel glanced back at his wife who looked pale, he clasped Zahra's hand making the girl jump in shock.
"Let's go upstairs."
Zahra just nodded then walked after Daniel to go to the room.
