Marrying the Paralyzed
Chapter 87

After breaking the fast, Raka and Melinda performed Maghrib prayers in their bedroom. While others, pray together with Almer in the prayer room.

“Mas Raka today did not experience anything strange or anything like that?” melinda asked to make sure that her premonition was wrong regarding the bad premonition she had this morning.

Raka was surprised by Melinda's question. How could Melinda ask such a thing.

Did Melinda know about this morning? However, Melinda was with me from now on and did not talk to Reza. (Inner of Raka)

Raka was astonished and confused to have to answer his wife's question how.

“Mas Raka, is everything okay?” ask Melinda to make sure she gets back.

“Of course, everything is fine,” replied Raka.

“Thank God,” said Melinda who finally could breathe a sigh of relief and considered the bad feeling she had this morning was just her hallucination.

A few hours later.

Raka gets a call from her personal assistant and informs her that there are several articles about Raka Arafat's relationship with Luna. Raka is shocked and starts to see news on the internet about her and Luna.

“Sial.” Raka cursed annoyed and heard directly by Melinda who happened to be lying right next to Raka.

Melinda turned to her husband and thought he was angry with her.

“Mas Raka why? Did I do anything wrong?” asked Melinda who looked very surprised because of her husband's annoyance.

“Sorry, I suddenly said just like that. You do not need to fear or feel guilty, I am upset because of office problems that never finish,”, said Raka lying to Melinda.

Raka just does not want if Melinda saw the article and prejudiced against him. Raka does not want to be stamped as a husband who likes to cheat, especially cheating with ex-lovers.

“Mas Raka want me to make coffee? Or Mas Raka wants me to massage to be more relaxed?” asked Melinda who was trying to reduce the burden on her husband's mind.

“No need. You should sleep,” said Raka so that his wife sleeps soon.

“It's still 9 and I'm not sleepy either, Mas Raka,” said Melinda who was not sleepy at all, plus her husband at the time was having problems and it was impossible for her to sleep just like that.

Melinda got out of bed and when she wanted to reach for her phone, suddenly her phone rang.

“Who?” raka asked when he found out someone was trying to contact his wife.

“My best friend, Mas Raka,” replied Melinda and showed her phone screen towards Raka.

Raka gave a small nod and at that moment Melinda rushed out of the room to receive her husband's phone so as not to disturb her husband who was in the room.

“Assalamu'alaikum, Melinda!”

“Wa’alaikumsalam, what is Ratna contacting at night time like this?” melinda asked thinking that Ratna needed something so called herself at curfew like that.

“Melinda, have you seen the news on the internet?” ask Ratna to make sure.

“No. What news is there on the internet?” melinda asked in amazement because it turned out Ratna only contacted herself to ask about it.

Melinda turned her head left and right to make sure that no servants or bodyguards around would hear her talking to Ratna over the phone.

“Ratna, what do you mean? Speak clearly,” said Melinda who did not understand what her best friend said.

“It seems you don't know about your husband's relationship and that beautiful model. You should just look on the internet, I hope you can calm down after seeing the article,” concluded Ratna.

Ratna cut off her phone and Melinda started looking for news about her husband and the beautiful model her best friend Ratna was referring to.

Melinda's phone slipped out of her hand when she saw a photo showing how her husband and the beautiful model were embracing.

Melinda picked up her phone that had fallen on the floor with tears in her eyes.

Looks like the beautiful woman in the photo is Mas Raka's ex-lover. Well then, I'm nothing compared to a woman named Luna. (Inner Melinda)

Melinda feels very broken, has not had time to express her love. Apparently, the husband still has a relationship with a woman named Luna.

Raka continued to look at the door that was still tightly closed. The man was waiting for Melinda to enter, but half an hour later Melinda did not enter the room.

Where's Melinda? Does he still get calls from his best friend? (Inner of Raka)

Melinda went into the room with her head bowed. She got into bed and laid her body back to her husband.

“You want to sleep?” asked Raka when she saw Melinda who had covered her entire body with a blanket.

Melinda did not answer and just nodded from under the blanket she was wearing.

Melinda was crying under the covers, her chest was tight and the jealousy she was feeling was huge.

Not to mention when looking at reading an article a few years ago that the contents are a special relationship husband and also the beautiful and sexy model, Luna.

Raka was not suspicious at all, because Raka was busy sending messages to his subordinates to immediately remove the article that was not important.

I need to deal with this immediately. That woman really pisses me off. (Inner of Raka)

About 1 hour later, Raka finally fell asleep and at the same time Melinda came down from the bed to wash her face that felt sticky because of the many tears that continued to flow because of the article read by Melinda.

Long enough Melinda in the bathroom, of course Melinda deliberately linger in the room for trying to arrange her heart. The young woman was eager to give up on her feelings. But she could not because she loved her husband so much.

After putting enough of her heart together, Melinda came back out of the bathroom and rushed up to the bed.

O Allah, give the servant the strength to face all this. (Inner Melinda)

“Melinda, do you want to go back to sleep?” asked Raka when she accidentally woke up from her sleep and saw Melinda who had laid her body with her back to herself.

“Iya, Mas Raka. I want to go back to sleep. In a few hours we will say,” Melinda replied without wanting to turn to her husband.

Melinda did not want her husband to know that she had been crying and had her eyes swollen with too many tears.

“I also want to go back to sleep,” said Raka who felt a little strange with Melinda's attitude that was not as usual.
