Marrying the Paralyzed
Chapter 56

Before dawn, Raka and Melinda woke up.

At that time, Raka asked Melinda to prepare the clothes that Raka would wear while in Malaysia. Of course Melinda was surprised, Melinda did not know that her husband was going to a neighboring country.

“Mas Raka is going to Malaysia? This morning?” ask Melinda to make sure.

“Yes, me and Grandpa. I forgot to tell you earlier,” replied Raka.

Melinda let out a sigh that sounded very disappointed.

“What's up? You certainly can't come. Grandpa and I are not on vacation there. Rather, working to make money,” concluded Raka on Melinda.

“Mas Raka and Grandpa go how long?” ask Melinda curious.

“About one Week,” replied Raka.

“One Week is not a short time. That means I will be alone at home,” Melinda said while tying her long hair so as not to fall apart.

Raka took out a credit card and gave it to Melinda.

“Take this credit card and wear it as you please,” said Raka to reduce the loneliness of Melinda.

Melinda politely declined the credit card and preferred to use cash only.

“Mas Raka, I don't want to use a credit card. Does Mas Raka have cash?” ask Melinda.

“Haaa?” Raka gawked at Melinda's request.

Melinda smiled foolishly looking at the expression on her husband's face.

“Do you know how much money is in my credit card? This money can even buy some cars,” said Raka.

“Although I can buy a car, I still can't drive it. So, just give me the cash 500 thousand only,” explained Melinda who according to her 500 thousand was more than enough.

“Are you kidding? My credit card you exchanged for 500 grand cash? How can you be this stupid,” said Raka bobbing head.

Melinda again only responds to her husband's words with her stupid smile.

“Already, quickly prepare the clothes that I will wear while in Malaysia and do not forget to neatly arrange into the suitcase!” Raka's orders.

“Good, Mas Raka. I will prepare and arrange it very neatly,” reply Melinda.

Raka turned to look at her watch which was right beside her sleeping pillow. Apparently, another 30 minutes will enter the dawn prayer time.

Raka asks Melinda to help her move into a wheelchair to get cleaned up.

Morning time.

Almer, Raka and Melinda are enjoying their breakfast. Almer and Raka repeatedly turned towards Melinda who would soon be living alone in the house, even though there were many servants and bodyguards in the mansion.

“Daughter-in-law, if bored at home just tell the waiter or driver. They will take their daughter-in-law's granddaughter wherever she wants,” Almer told Melinda.

Melinda simply agreed with her sweet smile. Then, again chewed the dish in front of him greedily.

Almer finished with his meal, followed by Raka and Melinda.

It turns out that not only Almer and Raka will travel to Malaysia. Reza also turned out to go because almost all schedules are arranged by Raka's personal assistant.

Reza had been waiting for Almer and Raka in front of the house.

“Daughter-in-law, we're leaving. Remember the message Grandpa had, if there is anything and want something just say to them,” said Almer while touching the left shoulder of the wife of Raka.

“Grandfather, please don't think too much about Melinda here. Melinda here will pray hopefully the journey to Malaysia smoothly jaya,” reply Melinda.

Almer secured the Do'a and got in the car to give his granddaughter and granddaughter-in-law time to talk for a while, before leaving the mansion.

“I'm going and don't ever mess around while I'm in Malaysia. And one more, the cash you want I put on the sofa room,” concluded Melinda.

“Mas Raka need not say that it is. I am Mas Raka's wife and I am a loyal person. May I ask one thing?” ask Melinda.

“What?” asked Raka coldly.

“During Mas Raka in Malaysia, can we exchange news?” ask Melinda shyly.

Almer was in the car so curious about what his granddaughter-in-law had said. Almer could not hear anything in the car.

“Reza, do you know what they're talking about? Look at my grandson-in-law's face, looks very shy,” Almer told his grandson's personal assistant.

“I'm sorry, Big Master. I can not hear the conversation of Young Master and Young Miss,” Reza replied honestly.

Raka and Melinda had finished talking. At that moment, Raka gestured for Reza to help her get into the car immediately.

Melinda smiled sweetly and kissed the back of her husband's hand, before the husband actually got in the car.

Melinda waved her hand while holding back her tears. Until the car left, Melinda shed her tears.

Before, Melinda had never felt this kind of sadness. Even with Royan Melinda did not feel the heartbeat like she felt to her husband, Raka Arafat.

“Young Miss must be very sad because Young Master has to leave,” said one of the maids when she saw her Young Miss crying.

“Iya, Ma'am. I am very sad because Mas Raka, Grandpa and Mas Reza traveled quite far. Please pray for the safety of Mas Raka, Grandpa and Mas Reza yes Mbak!” pinta Melinda's.

The servant agreed and invited the other servants to pray for the safety of the three of them.

Melinda wiped her tears and decided to go inside immediately.

Arriving in the room, Melinda was surprised to see a lot of cash given by her husband.

“Money as much as this, did not I only ask for 500 thousand only,” said Melinda.

Melinda counted the money and it turned out that the total was 20 million. For the first time in her life, Melinda touched so much money.

“Mas Raka is too much, I can spend this much money,” concluded Melinda.

Melinda took 500 grand and the rest she put in her husband's desk drawer.

Raka sat right next to her Grandfather and seemed to be thinking about something quite serious. Almer who was sitting next to his Grandson was eager to ask. However, Almer held him back and asked when he arrived in Malaysia.

Afternoon.

Melinda sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at the screen of her phone and waiting for a reply from her husband.

“Didn't Mas Raka agree to exchange news this morning? It's been this hour and Mas Raka hasn't even replied to my message,” Melinda said and put her phone back on the table. Then, watch television that has been on for approximately 1 hour.

One of the waiters approached Melinda who had been sitting without asking for any snacks or food.

“Young Mona, it's like this. Does anyone want Young Miss to eat?” ask Melinda.

“I don't want to eat anything. If I may, I want avocado juice. Is there?” ask Melinda.

“Of course there is, Young Miss. If there is none, I will try to find him,” he replied.

Melinda laughed at the reply from the waiter which sounded very funny.

Looking at her laughing Young Miss, the maid was very pleased.

“We are very lucky with the presence of Young Miss,” said the female servant.

“Mbak this could have been,” Melinda replied with a wrong attitude.

Excuse the waiter to go to the kitchen to make the avocado juice Melinda wants.

Melinda refocused on the television show in front of her and suddenly her phone rang.

Melinda hastily grabbed her phone and it turns out that the message she sent to her husband was finally answered.

💌 Mas Raka “I'm resting and fine.”

Melinda leaped excitedly reading the contents of the message from her husband.

“Alhamdulillah, finally Mas Raka wants to reply to a message from me. Now, I have to ask what yes?” Melinda thought hard to send a short message to her husband who was in Malaysia at the time.

Melinda became misbehaved as the servants and bodyguards ran over to her.

“Young Miss is fine?” ask one of the bodyguards.

“Ha? Why me?” melinda asked in amazement as well as being misbehaved.

“Young Miss just shouted,” replied bodyguard.

“Really?” ask Melinda to make sure.

The servants and bodyguards compactly agreed to Melinda's question.

Melinda was embarrassed and said she was okay.

Before leaving Melinda who was in the living room, the servants and the bodyguards again asked to make sure that their Young Miss was okay.

Melinda with a sweet smile said that she was fine. Hearing those words, they walked away.

Melinda sighed, not realizing that she was screaming because she was too happy to get a short message from her husband.
