Sensational Husband
One Hundred and Thirty
Along the way to the Mekka house, Azlan thought about Alexa. He remembers all sorts of bad things that happened to his wife, even long before his marriage to Alexa, the woman had been invaded with various dangers so that Mr. Joan had to hire a bodyguard to maintain the safety of his daughter. Not only that, even Mr. Joan was also attacked by robbers. About Mr. Joan who once pulled cash and got robbed. About Alexa who was once chased by an unknown man at the club. About Alexa who almost robbed when coming home from the office at night. About the robbery of two masked men in Alexa's house. About a foreign man who follows Alexa on a deserted street. Azlan thought, are the events that happened to Alexa related?
Soon the car arrived in front of the rented house. He rushed down from the car and entered the house while greeting. The greeting sounds soft from inside the house.
Azlan frowned astonished to see Mecca was not alone, there were many people sitting with him. None other than Mother Dinda, Aunt Veti, and Om Anjas. Azlan knew what had happened when he found unfriendly faces around Mecca.
Om Anjas who was originally friendly and friendly, now looks unsightly. His gaze was sharp, his jaw stiffened, the veins on his face were sticking out. Same is the case with Aunt Veti whose expression now looks tense and her facial skin reddened. And Mother Dinda, the woman who always smiles at every moment, now her smile is not seen anymore.
“Mother!” Azlan approached his mother, knelt down, took Dinda's hand and cheered her on and kissed her on the back for a long time.
Silent.
Even the clanging sound of the clockwork of the wall was heard so loud due to the silence created.
“Do you remember everything? Do you remember your past?” asked Mother Dinda with a full highlight of supervision.
“Iya, Mother. I remember everything from the time of the few days up to Jakarta.”
“My wife.”
“Mother disappointed in you, Azlan!” said Mother Dinda without looking at her son. He turned his face towards the wall as he could not see the face of his eldest son.
“Mother still trusts me, doesn't she? Please listen to me first before Mother draws her conclusion.” Azlan raised his face, looking at his mother's face intensely.
“Why did you marry a woman other than Mekka when you agreed to marry Mekka?” Mother Dinda still turned her face.
“Mother, there are many things I cannot control. And I admit that I am weak, I am not as good as you think. My faith is not even as strong as Mother imagined. I'm bound and can't get out of Alexa's living space, the situation and the time keep me with Alexa. Until finally the condition forced me to marry the woman who was also my boss. When I wanted to cancel my marriage to Mecca, God actually made me in an accident condition to make me forget the previous incident. I admit to being a hypocrite because I have to deny my own words. I admit that I am a man who is weak in faith, I am just dirty and black mud. I don't even have the power to change the situation. I'm sorry, Mother.”
“Azlan, you have thrown away Mother's trust. Yes, Mother's trust in you has been eroded. Is this your reply to your bundle?”
