Happiness Does Not Have to be Rich
Miss my wife

" kai... Our client's a girl?" azzam asked in shock.

" Yes, Mas. Why...?" Kaivan asked back.

" His name is not foreign."

" Who, Zam?" ask Rayyan.

" Merry Davidson's... Was he on campus with us?" Azzam.

" Merry's... Merry's always chasing you?"

" Easy - I hope it's not him."

After lunch together, they broke up to go home. Azzam was still silent thinking about the woman who would be his work partner.

" Why, Mas? Is our client your ex-lover?" ask Kaivan.

The brothers are now in the car to return home. Kaivan felt that there was something his brother was thinking about.

" No, Kai. He was just a classmate on campus. I wish it was just the same name."

" Is your relationship bad?"

" I don't know, I don't think I ever responded to that woman. Don't tell Zahra anything, afraid she'll misunderstand."

" If according to Kai, Brother Zahra will not misunderstand but execution directly. I wonder what kind of nature Tiger White's agents are?"

" But Zahra is different, Kai."

" Basic bucin!"

Azzam stabbed Kaivan in the head violently for mocking him. He did not accept being said that way even though the truth was true.

Arriving at the courtyard of the house, Rama had run to Azzam and Kaivan who just got out of the car.

" Assalamu'alaikum, Daddy's darling." Azzam spread out his arms to greet his son.

" Wa'alaikumsalam." Zahra replied.

" Have you eaten, Deck?" Azzam embraces his wife's waist.

" Already, let's go in."

" Sister-in-law...! Why was Kai left behind?" grouse Kaivan.

" I'm sorry, Young Master Kaivan... I forget that my employer is still behind." seduced Zahra.

" Not good, ah!"

Kaivan snatched Rama's small body from Azzam's sling and led him a little run towards his room upstairs.

" Is she always spoiled like that with you?" Azzam stared intently at his wife.

" Kaivan just needs a friend, Mas. Since childhood, his life has been too hard. Let alone seeing how his father was killed before him."

" I know, so I can still accept him even if his mother is very bad."

" My husband is kind."

Azzam took his wife to his room to rest. But arriving at the room, Azzam did not allow Zahra to rest. He used to spend time alone while his son was with Kaivan.

The next day, Azzam went to Singapore with Deni for work. Last night he persuaded his wife to come but failed. Zahra prefers to stay home with her in-laws.

" Dan, what do we think is the same?"

" Maybe. Looks like Merry knows you're the top boss in the company."

" Huh... You know for yourself I'm the laziest at dealing with a girl like her."

" Not to think about it, Boss. You better take a break. Today's agenda is meeting at lunchtime and then we have dinner together."

" Why should we have dinner too?"

" It's just plain suave, Mr. Davidson inviting in person."

Azzam tried to close his eyes to rest for a moment. It was supposed to be a Kaivan deal, but the client insisted on meeting Azzam in person.

Azzam and Deni arrived at Singapore International Airport. The two rushed to find a taxi to find the nearest hotel from the meeting place.

" One room only, Den. We're only here for a day" Azzam said as they were about to book a room.

" Sure, Boss?"

" Don't waste money on trivia."

" Do not accuse without evidence. My wife is not like that."

After getting the keys to his room, Deni and Azzam immediately entered the elevator. They dress casually like no businessman. With t-shirt top coated dark color jacket and matching color material pants. Do not forget the backpack on their backs that the effect shows like a student.

" Is there anything strange about our appearance, Boss? Why are they staring at us like that?" whisky Deni.

" Just ignore it! Maybe you look handsome today." ledek Azzam.

" The charm of Deni never fade." said Deni Jumawa.

" The immortality of singles...!" azzam laughs softly.

Entering the room, Azzam glanced at his watch and heaved a sigh of relief. At least he still has two hours to rest before meeting with clients.

Seeing Deni who had fallen asleep quickly, Azzam arrived - suddenly missed his wife when only a few hours they had separated.

" Lost my wife." sighed Azzam softly while wiping the screen of his cellphone which contained photos of himself and his wife and child.

Right at lunchtime, Azzam and Deni came out of the hotel room after praying. Their appearance has now changed 180°. Azzam with a black shirt combined with the color of similar material pants and a luxurious white coat makes anyone who sees it must be fascinated. Deni who is always beside him also looks the same, just different colors. Deni prefers navy colors for his suit.

It only took fifteen minutes, Azzam and Deni had arrived at the luxurious hotel restaurant where they met with clients.

" Good day, Mr. Davidson." said Azzam.

" Mister Azzam, nice too meet you. Welcome to my country." replied Mr. Davidson kindly.

They shook hands and Mr. Davidson invited them to sit down. At the same time, a beautiful girl in super sexy clothes approached.

" Azzam...!" exclaim that girl.

Azzam only glanced at a glance while nodding his head without welcoming the girl who stretched out both hands to hug.

" You know me, Miss?" ask Azzam flat.

" Wait...! You don't know me? I'm Merry, college buddy first."

Yep... The girl is Merry Davidson, the woman who from yesterday was the subject of Azzam and Deni. Azzam regretted coming to Singapore because it turned out that his guess was right.

" Sorry, please sit down. I have a lot of friends, so I can't remember one by one" Azzam said.

" Thank you... And you're... Deni, right? Wah... You guys never get away from each other."

" Hey... Merry, I think your face is still a little recorded in my memory" Deni said with a smile that was difficult to interpret.

" It turns out you know my daughter, it'll be easier for our cooperation" Mr Davidson said.

They began to discuss cooperation for the construction of hotels in the Bandung area. But of the four people, only Merry was not focused on the meeting. He preferred to stare at the handsome face of Azzam that he could never forget for so many years.

" Merry, are you okay?" suddenly, Mr. Davidson patted his daughter's shoulder slowly.

" Oh... Yes, Daddy. I'm fine." Merry replied in shock.

" Focus, Miss. We're working, not playing." Deni said.

" Of course. I'll work well, Mr. Deni." said Merry.

" Good, girl." Deni said.

After signing the contract, they had lunch together. Merry tries to chat with Azzam, but the man is indifferent and does not respond to his chatter.

" Azzam, I'll take you around the city. You want to, right?" Merry held Azzam's arm spoiled.

Azzam sighed softly. He still respects Mr Davidson as his business partner. If not, maybe he'll smash Merry's hand violently.

" Sorry, I have to go back to the hotel immediately. Later in the afternoon I will return to Indonesia." said Azzam while slowly pulling Merry's hand from his arm.

" But, Mister... Aren't we scheduled for dinner?" said Mr. Davidson.

" I'm sorry about that, sir. I suddenly miss my wife. Excuse me, I have important business after this."

Azzam immediately shook Mr. Davidson's hand without even glancing at Merry who was looking at him in disappointment.
