Zaskia was still speechless, she could not believe all this.


"Let's sit down, you don't have to stand up like that" cried Adnan by sliding the chair for Zaskia.


Slowly Zaskia sat down and she still could not say anything.


"What does all this mean?" ask Zaskia.


"Let me explain everything, now we better eat first."


On the table was already presented a variety of foods, Adnan directly devoured his food casually while Zaskia looked very awkward and wrong.


"Tonight you are beautiful, even after giving birth you are more beautiful" Adnan said.


Uhuk..


Zaskia chokes, and Adnan quickly gives Zaskia a drink.


"Eat it slowly."


Zaskia's face flushed red, it could not be denied that at this time Zaskia was so very embarrassed even to speak it felt very difficult.


During the meal, Zaskia did not say anything different from Adnan who continued to steal glances to Zaskia. A few moments later, they finished eating and Adnan asked the waiter to clean up their food first.


"News, Kia."


"Good."


"How is your child?"


"He's fine."


Zaskia did not dare to look at Adnan, I don't know what is being felt by Zaskia who is clear at this time Zaskia is very embarrassed if you have to look at Adnan.


"Oh, so you want me to go?"


Zaskia fell silent, she really cursed herself not that she was so happy that Adnan was here but why exactly that silly question came out.


"A month ago I decided to leave as I promised, but suddenly Mother called me and told me I didn't leave because you still have a taste for me. But it turns out, Mother's words were wrong and you still want me to go. Well, if that's what you want, I won't push anymore. It's late, do you want to go home? let me take you home."


There is a feeling of disappointment in Adnan's heart, it turns out Zaskia still hates him. Adnan got up from his seat and was about to leave.


"I did want you to go, Adnan, but unfortunately my heart did not say that" exclaimed Zaskia who was still sitting.


Adnan fell silent and looked at Zaskia with a look of disbelief, Zaskia got up and ventured to look into Adnan's eyes.


"You know, I'd love to hate you but I can't. I've tried to forget you, but why are you still in my mind, quickly tell me why you're so hard to forget, Adnan!" zaskia shouted with tears.


Adnan gasped, not expecting that Zaskia still loved him. Slowly Adnan approached Zaskia and rubbed the tears that flowed on her cheek.


"From a long time ago until now I loved you so much Kia, and my love never faded in the slightest. I used to be guilty of hurting you, and it seemed to be a deadly disease to me. Every day the guilt haunts me, I am not comfortable living and doing my activities all this time. I want us to go back with Kia, continue our delayed love story."


Zaskia's tears were getting louder out making Adnan heartless and pulling Zaskia into his arms.


"Don't cry anymore, Kia, I don't like to see you cry the most and unfortunately I made you cry."


Zaskia's crying became more and more so made Adnan again tighten his embrace. They hugged for a long time, until after Zaskia felt calm, Adnan released his embrace and wiped away Zaskia's tears.


"Will you come back with me? we build our happy households and we raise our children together" Adnan said.


Zaskia smiled and nodded her head, so Adnan felt very happy. Adnan hugged Zaskia again even now Adnan's eyes are already glazed.


"Thank you Kia, I promise to make you and our children happy and we will live happily until death separates" Adnan said.


Zaskia nodded her head, she tightened her arms to Adnan and Adnan was so happy that finally the thing he had been waiting for had sweet fruit.
