Happiness Does Not Have to be Rich
Mutually believe

At night, Azzam and Zahra went to the Rayyan Apartment to bring food and ask about the problems she was facing. After entering the door code, Azzam invites Zahra to enter.

" Assalamu'alaikum, Bang." said Zahra.

" Wa'alaikumsalam's. You guys come here?" sahut Rayyan's.

" Yes, let's eat first." said Azzam.

" I'll take the plate first" said Rayyan slowly.

" Let Zahra alone, Bang. Just sit with Mas Azzam." said Zahra.

" Thank you, Za."

The three of them ate quickly then moved to the living room to relax after eating. Rayyan still looks moody since earlier making Zahra more curious.

" What brother?"

" Yesterday when I returned to Jakarta, my brother was forced to marry my daughter" Rayyan complained.

" Aren't you going to be betrothed?"

" Of course you don't want to, you don't know!"

" Ta'aruf first, Bang. Who knows, this brother's age is enough to build a household."

" But you don't want to be betrothed, Za. You can find your own wife."

" Prove that you can. Zahra can ask Auntie to postpone the match until the deadline we agreed to."

Azzam just kept quiet not wanting to interfere with this kind of thing. She knew Rayyan was actually very stubborn just like her mother. They will defend what they think is right.

" There is no time limit! Brother does not want to be betrothed to anyone." annoyed Rayyan.

" Oh, Ray... Don't be angry, let's talk about something else?" azzam said diverting the conversation.

" Mas_.." said Zahra.

Azzam embraces his wife's shoulder so as not to continue the conversation about Rayyan's matchmaking with her mother's friend's child.

" ray... Actually I wanted to ask you a favor. But if your condition is like this, I'm not sure I can leave you alone." said Azzam.

" Where are you going?" ask Rayyan.

" Want a honeymoon to Japan."

" Huh...! You're crazy, Zam. Our work is now piling up and must pursue the target. It's as if you want a honeymoon." ketus Rayyan.

" Uyeah, Mas. We can go next year" said Zahra.

" So, sweetheart. Isn't it your dream to see snow in Japan?"

" No problem, there's another day. Don't bother Bang Rayyan often."

" You can go next week. We re-schedule the meeting with the client" Rayyan said flatly.

" No need, Bang. Zahra does not want to trouble Bang Ray continues." said Zahra.

If this continues, the debate will never end. Azzam must be able to mediate between the two who maintain their own ego.

" Stop...! We better rest now. No one disputes this time." stressed Azzam.

" We're going home, Mom?" lirih Zahra's.

" no. They have their own room here. Ray's... Go to your room, talk later if everything is calm." said Azzam.

Zahra followed her husband into a room next to Rayyan's. Looking at Azzam who went straight into the bathroom, Zahra preferred to go up to the bed.

" Dear, wash your face before going to bed." said Azzam.

" A minute, Mas. Zahra wants a little rebound." whine Zahra.

" Deck...!"

" Yes - yes...!"

Zahra immediately got up from her bed with a manyun lip. Not that he doesn't want to, but he's lazy. Azzam sighed softly looking at Zahra's sometimes childish behavior.

After washing his face, Zahra immediately dropped down beside the husband who was lying down while focusing on his cellphone.

" Dad, Zahra sleeps in clothes like this?" zahra Manyun.

" Remove it if you're not comfortable, Deck. Tomorrow morning can be used again."

" What are you wearing now?"

" Not wearing anything, no one will see anything but Mas."

" Well, Azzam...!"

Azzam put his cell phone next to his pillow and tilted his body to face his wife. He pecked long enough his wife's lips then pulled her into the arms.

" Let's help you take off your clothes to make your sleep comfortable."

Azzam hand deftly took off his wife's long clothes and took her t-shirt in the closet.

" Thank you, my husband."

Azzam hugged his wife again after being satisfied to kiss her whole face which looks very adorable.

" Uyeah, Mas. He said he was told to rest?" whining Zahra.

" Some want Mas to talk to Adek, seriously." said Azzam.

" What about?"

" Secret promises not to get angry? Keep listening to Mas's explanation until it's over?"

" Yes, say it quickly."

Azzam further tightened his embrace and kissed his wife's lips gently and demandingly.

" Well...! Don't be weird, he said he wanted to talk."

" Hehee... Sorry, sweetie."

" What the hell is it? From earlier muters - muters continue."

" Look, Deck. Yesterday when Mas went to Singapore, Mas met a college friend first. Turns out she was the daughter of a client who was going to build a hotel in Bandung."

" Is he Mas Azzam's ex-lover?"

" No."

" Friendly friend?"

" Not really."

" Then what? Why are you so worried?"

Azzam looked at the sky-sky room and then exhaled his coarse breath. If he was honest, would his wife be angry?

" He used to chase me shamelessly when I rejected him many times. I thought after a long time of not seeing each other, he had changed. But_..."

" Is that woman still obsessed with you?"

" It seems so. And he will stay in Indonesia until the construction project is completed."

" I'm honest with Zahra. Did you ever get a little back at his feelings?"

" No and forever will never happen. Love is only for you, my dear."

Zahra was satisfied with her husband's answer. She knew her husband was very worried if one day they met and made a misunderstanding.

" That's the only answer Adek needs. As long as we both can keep each other's trust, we can definitely deal with all of this easily."

" Thank you, baby. I just don't want any misunderstanding between us because of his presence."

" As long as Mas is still in love with Adek, then there is no one who can disturb our family."

" My wife is amazing."

" Is he the type to justify all means?"

" I think so, so before that... I want you to be alert before that happens."

" We better get some sleep and think about Bang Rayyan's problem first."

Zahra drowned her face in the chest of her husband's field preparing to sleep. After a few seconds, her husband returned. It looks like tonight would be a long night if Zahra couldn't keep up her defenses.

" Well... Don't be here, it's not good for Bang Rayyan." said Zahra.

" I can't sleep, Yang." Whined Azzam.

" But Zahra won't do it here."

" Yaudah, then can I see Rayyan now? Adek sleep first, Mas want to discuss the work because."

" Don't be long, if Adek kidnapped a ghost how?"

" Geek lebay, ah! Must be Kaivan's crush."

Zahra hugged Azzam tighter and tighter before the man got out of bed. This time she was very happy to flirt with her husband.

" Here, Yang! If you keep flirting, you can get out of control." - shrieked Azzam.

" Who is the seductive? Zahra just hugs can't she?" elak Zahra's.

" Yahiraaa...!"
