Not the Perfect Wife
21. Open hearts
"Geez!" emran Gumam.
"What's wrong?" ask Yasna.
"Your drink I finished. I'm sorry, I forgot if I haven't ordered anything yet" Emran said.
"It's okay, I haven't had a drink yet" Yasna said.
"Sorry." Emran felt bad, he was already very thirsty and nervous to the point of unconsciousness.
"It's okay" Yasna once again said.
"I order you again, we order food." Emran called a waiter and said his order which the waiter later wrote.
"What do you think of Afrin's request?" ask Emran.
"Hah." instead of answering Yasna just stupefied.
"I'm not a person who is good at small talk, so I ask the point, just to be direct" Emran said.
Emran is indeed a person who prefers what it is. he does not like convoluted, let alone looking for face just for a compliment
"All right, now we're talking openly. Actually I was quite surprised by Afrin's request. Honestly I was very willing to be his mother, but to remarry, I was a little traumatized by the failure of my first marriage. Moreover, I just got divorced and we also do not know each other" said Yasna.
"But I don't intend to find a foster mother for my daughter" Emran said.
"That's not what I mean, I...
"I see. Since we don't know each other, why don't we start getting to know each other from now on?" ask Emran.
"You mean?" ask Yasna back.
"We don't know each other, do we? Why don't we start getting to know each other and open up to each other? I know you're still hurt by the failure of your household. Don't you want to cure him? Because people once said how to treat heartache because of love just by presenting a new love," said Emran.
Yasna fell silent, did she have to do what Emran said? he was indeed hurt, did he have to treat it with heart as well? Is he ready to open his heart again? If Yasna opens her heart again, it means she has to be ready to get hurt, no one knows what will happen next, right?
"I won't force you, it's up to you. I'm just saying my opinion, as you know that Afrin really wants you to be her mother, when previously there was a woman who was also close to me, but Afrin never said she wanted her mother to be her mother. Different when he told me about you, he was so happy. He never gets bored even though he tells about you over and over again" said Emran.
"I don't know what's going to happen in the future, but I want to try" Yasna said after thinking.
We'll never know what happens later, if we don't try it ourselves, that's what Yasna thought
"meaning? Are you willing to marry me?" ask Emran to make sure.
"Not so, I will try it, about what the end will be like? Let time do the talking" Yasna said.
"I don't understand what you mean" Emran said.
"I want us to get to know each other. Not just us, but our family. As we know, we are both strangers and know each other from Afrin. Therefore, now I want us to try to start a relationship that is open to each other. Whatever we feel and we want all we have to express, so as not to hurt each other in the future," Yasna.
"You mean we're in a relationship, but we're not tied to each other. If someday we match each other we'll get married, if not we end well without hurting each other, right?" ask Emran.
"Right and on that journey, I want us to get to know each other's families as well" Yasna replied.
"I agree and to begin with, I want us to change my word to me. Because I felt like I was leading a meeting" Emran said, making Yasna laugh.
Emran who saw Yasna laughing also smiled.he prayed, whatever the final decision later, he hoped that it was the best.
They eat in silence, occasionally looking at each other and lyrically.
"There's something I want to tell you about my son" Emran said after he finished his meal.
"Tell me, I'll hear it" Yasna said.
"I have a son, his name is Aydin, he's Afrin's brother and he's very ignorant. Every time I get close to a woman, they'll definitely leave after Aydin pranks them." Emran laughed as he said it.
Yasna was surprised by Emran, shouldn't she be angry when her son made his future wife run away? Why is he laughing now?
"Why are you laughing? Is there anything funny?" ask Yasna.
"A lot, but for them it must be annoying" replied Emran.
"Why are you laughing? Shouldn't you be angry, because your future wife was made to leave?" ask Yasna astonished.
"It's okay, it's just funny" replied Emran.
'I can't say if they just want me, without accepting my children. I'm afraid you're like them, so I don't want to tell it and make you more alert, ' inner Emran.

"Mas, why are you still seeing your ex-wife? You're divorced, don't you think what people will say?" ask Avi.
"You should have said that to yourself before agreeing to Mama's crazy idea of getting us married. You never thought what people would say if you married a married man. Why should you bother thinking about others?" cynical Zahran.
"Because I love you" Avi said.
"Love? What kind of love do you mean? We've never even met before. You think I don't know? I know that you agreed to marry me just because you wanted the property I had. yes, right?" ask Zahran.
"No, I sincerely love you" said Avi.
"But unfortunately, I don't see the sincerity that's in you." Zahran passed by regardless of what Avi would say.
"Mas?! Mas!," cried Avi.
"The woman really should be taught a lesson, how dare she disturb my household. I used to be quiet when Zahran loved him more than me, but not this time. Now I am Zahran's wife and no one can doubt me let alone take my place" Avi said in the wind.
Avi plays her phone, looking for the number of someone who can help her.
"Hello" said one person across the phone.
"Do whatever you want, I'll send you a picture. Do it neatly, leaving no trace." Avi immediately disconnected the phone without waiting for a response from the other side.
'Satisfied laugh, because after this you will not be able to laugh, ' Inner Avi smiled cunningly.
