Maya Adisti
Naught
#POVAKash
I was busy with my laptop when the nurse came in to deliver the food. Maya is still asleep. After a night he complained of soreness because it was difficult to tilt his body.
"Thank you, Sus" I said as the nurse finished her work.
After the nurse left I approached Maya, my mother-in-law had gone home early in the morning because she had to take care of licensing. I looked at Maya for a moment and stroked her head.
"Maya," call me slowly.
I saw the girl's eyelids twitching, Maya slowly opened her eyes. He glared for a moment when he saw me and then snorted. He was upset because I woke him up.
"Still sleepy?" my many.
"Yes, but it's achy. My back is hot" he complained.
I sighed, indeed the fracture Maya suffered was not too severe. Only cracks in the ankles and elbows, but it was very painful Maya. Basically, the girl could not stay still.
"Attent." I pressed one of the buttons under the bed. Maya's upper body was lifted.
The urine bag is almost full. Immediately I took the chamber pot and emptied it.
"Akash what are you doing?" ask Maya. Perhaps he wondered why I suddenly squatted on the edge of the patient's bed.
"You throw this away" I replied accordingly.
"What?"
"Urine."
"Huh!? Where's mom going?" Maya was a little stunned.
Maybe he just realized his mother was gone.
"Mom's home, you need permission first." I stood up and rushed to the bathroom.
Maya's face was flushed when she saw me back with a wet towel in hand. Immediately I wiped Maya's face, neck and a little bit of her hair.
"Can you just ask the nurse for help?" maya protests.
"Why indeed?"
"That's disgusting Akash, you shouldn't have done that."
"Why indeed?" I passed to keep the towel.
"You embarrassed and shy?" get me a glass of water to him. I saw his head nodding slowly.
"I'm your husband Maya, I should've done this. Eat?" I'm bargaining with Maya.
"But this marriage is just a contract."
Maya's answer stopped my movement. Is this girl's heart untouched? I even threw away her urine right in front of her eyes.
I didn't heed Maya's words. My focus shifted to ceramic plates containing a wide variety of foods.
"Akash," said Maya. Instead of opening her mouth she looked at me confused.
"Shut up! Do you want a thesis hearing with this condition?"
Doubtful Maya took my bribe. Ah Maya, if only I knew my heart was turning this fast. I'll never give you that damn contract.
Maya said no more words. He took the bribe for the bribe I gave him. Half of it suddenly opened the door. Anindhita runs after Maya.
"A-Anin." Maya grimaces as her wounds are touched by Anindhita.
"Be careful Anin" Yash reprimanded while keeping Anin away.
"It's okay Yash," she said.
Yash and I let Aninditha accompany Maya. Although not much to say, Anindhita really showed her affection. He just kept looking closely at Maya and wanted to be close. Several times Maya glared for fear Anindhita suddenly hunted him like before.
I turned to Yash, smiling at Anindhita and Maya's interaction.
"Can't you bring Anindhita here after coming home from the office?" ask me with annoyance. I hope Yash understands I don't like to see him staring at Maya like that.
"Anindhita needs her" said Yash.
"Don't act as if maya is the 'nanny'! I don't like Anindhita spending too much on Maya."
Yash looked at me. "You're jealous of a child? What happened with Ruth? Why are you suddenly married with Maya?" said.
"Not that. I mean why did Ruth disappear?" Yash looks very curious.
"I don't know."
"You don't want to look for him?"
That question got me excited. I'd love to find Ruth, but my heart isn't ready for something to happen and make me lose Maya.
"Do you love her?" connect Yash.
"Who?"
"The power of course!" answer Akash.
I choose silence. Hearing the two names called my heart became incompetent. I tried hard to push Ruth's name back into place. Realizing that the woman had hurt me even though I was curious was amazing.
"I love Maya" I said in my heart.
Half an hour later Yash leaves with the drama Anindhita who is unwilling to leave Maya. Lucky Maya always had a way of persuading the little girl.
A few days later Maya was able to return home. I invited my mother-in-law to come live with us until Maya really improved. It was after a long discussion finally Mother was willing to apply for leave.
"Mother and Maya sleep here. Let me sleep in the study room" I said as we arrived at the apartment.
I explained some of the ways to use electronic items to mom especially kitchen utensils. I'm sure the middle-aged woman will definitely not be comfortable if she has to order food at the hotel constantly.
"What do you want to buy? Let me stop by the supermarket tomorrow" I said.
I saw my mother-in-law checking everything in the kitchen.
"May! You never cook?" Mom screamed because Maya was in the room.
"Akash forbid me Mom!"
Damnit damnit! Why is he blaming me! The next second I faithfully listened to mother-in-law's nagging.

I sat on my couch in the office. Reading the pile of documents Reza gave me this morning. I haven't worked in five days, what I have to check is so much.
An hour passed Reza entered with one more map in his hand, and it succeeded in making me sigh long.
"You have no intention of helping me Za?" sindirku.
Without refuting Reza sat not far from me and took the map he had just saved.
"Aren't you going to retract the report?" ask Reza suddenly.
"What report?"
"The perpetrator" replied Reza quickly.
I know what Reza meant was the guy who hit Maya.
"Leave it," I replied.
"But Maya's mother was also wrong" he said.
"I don't care."
Reza and I looked at the door that suddenly opened. Yash walked in and put the documents on the table.
"You yourself? Where's Anindhita?" I said in a mocking tone.
"I told you Anin had a nanny. Have you checked your phone? I sent you some cctv videos," Yash said.
I grabbed my phone, sure enough. I got some chat from Yash.
"There was nothing strange, there was no black car following Maya at the time" Yash said.
I pensively for a moment. There's no way Maya lied to me.
"So? Will the report be revoked?" ask Reza.
"No."
I stay strong on my stand.
