When Love Is Afflicting
Is that wrong

"Suami Inara went to jail for being caught consuming prohibited goods. I just pity to see Inara go through her pregnancy alone. I was just helping him a little bit" Shaka replied.

Salwa grunts.

"Then let go of Annisa. Because no woman is able to see her husband's attention to other women" Salwa said again, speaking softly to Shaka.

"No way" Shaka insisted.

"I don't understand your way of thinking, Shaka. Then Annisa's gone, do you think Mr Boy will give you permission to see Annisa?. Don't expect."

Shaka was silent for a while then sighed harshly. True what Salwa said, he won't be easy to see Annisa again.

"Annisa is my wife, I have more right to her than anyone" Shaka said, sounding doubtful. Shaka is hesitant about his ability to confront Mr. Boy. Rich men, who have a business empire outside and inside the country. Almost all businessmen respected the mature man.

"You have hurt him" Salwa said.

"What happened?, why could Annisa leave?." Drabia's mother came into the room. Making Shaka and the others speechless and the same looking at the middle-aged woman who still looks beautiful.

On the way home from the airport, Salwa told her that Annisa had left Shaka. So that the woman who was at home was forced to step foot into the company.

"Shaka often finds Inara silent, Ma. Inara was pregnant again, and her husband was out of nowhere" Salwa replied.

Drabia's mother fell silent for a moment and turned her gaze toward Shaka.

"Geek!" call Bu Drabia demanding an explanation.

"Ma, Inara's in trouble. I was just helping her" Shaka explained, looking at her.

"What I want you to ask is why Annisa left, baby." Drabia's mother took a breath to keep her emotions in check.

Shaka bowed, unable to answer Mama's question.

Bukh!

"Awu!"

Shaka instantly grimaced in pain as he felt something hard land on his stomach.

"Mama doesn't want to know, you have to succeed in bringing Annisa back. Otherwise, Mama will break your leg until you can't walk" Ms Drabia said, speaking with her jaw hardened and straight out of the room.

"That child is no different from his father. My God, why are men more selfish and have no feelings" Mother Drabia grumbled as she entered the company's elevator.

The middle-aged woman will go to Annisa's parents' house to apologize for Shaka's mistake. After that, he will meet Inara, the daughter of his best friend, Lea.

Shaka stepped foot into his house and Annisa. The house was very quiet when only last night Annisa left the house.

Arriving inside the room, Shaka immediately packed some of her clothes into a bag. Shaka will follow Annisa to the Outer Negri. Begging Mr. Boy to have Annisa returned to him. After finishing packing, Shaka immediately walked out from inside the house.

"Assalamu aleikum."

Shaka's gaze was immediately directed towards the man standing at the door as Shaka closed the door of his house again.

"Greetings Walaikum, Father" replied Shaka bowing his gaze from Ustadz Bilal who noticed him.

"Dad believe, son. You're not gonna betray Dad's daughter." Ustadz Bilal held up one hand to pat Shaka on the shoulder.

"Shaka apologise, Dad. Shaka admitted wrong" shaka said.

"You don't have to pick her up. That'll be free. Because you won't be able to meet Boy there."

Shaka immediately raised his face towards Ustadz Bilal." Then what am I supposed to do, Dad?. And I can't stay long away from Annisa."

"You're sure, right, that Annisa loves you?" ask Ustadz Bilal.

Shaka nodded his head.

Ustadz Bilal reviewed his slight smile and patted Shaka's shoulder softly again."Give Annisa some time to think, son."

"But, Dad" Shaka involuntarily shed her tears.

Shaka froze and slowly took off the bag in his hand and let it fall to the floor of the porch after hearing the speech of Ustadz Bilal just now who rejected it subtly. That means Shaka can't see Annisa again for an indefinite period of time.

"Dad, I beg you" said Shaka.

"You've ruined Annisa's feelings, Shaka!. I believe you, but what are you doing?."

Shaka and Ustadz Bilal turned to Ferel who had just arrived with Calix, Dafi and Dzaki.

"I'm just helping a little bit of my childhood friend, is that wrong?" ask Shaka. It seems like all parties have blamed him. Yes, he is in the wrong position right now. But Shaka had reason to do that.

Ferel screeched," You helped your friend in silence. You used to meet him at that woman's rented house. And even you accompanied her shopping. Do you think, Annisa isn't that valuable to you? So you don't have to think about his feelings. Annisa also has her childhood friend, bro!."

"Ferel, it's Nak" Ustadz Bilal rubbed Ferel's shoulder that looked emotionally at Shaka. Because I don't want to cause a scene in that place.

"Don't expect you to see Annisa again. And just look, I'm gonna crush you like you've ruined Annisa's feelings" Ferel threatened to walk away from the place. Follow Calix, Dafi and Dzaki from behind.

"Do you see that, son?. His cousins are more emotional than Dad. They won't listen to me anymore. They will be compact if one of them is hurt. And they are very numerous. You have to really melt their hearts" said Ustadz Bilal.

"Dad I'm sorry. Please help me to see Annisa, Dad" please Shaka.

Shaka helps Inara, not because Inara is her only little friend. But Shaka always remembers how meritorious Inara's parents were in the past to both parents. So Shaka felt the need to help Inara who was in distress. But because of his status, what he did was a mistake.

Elsewhere, Annisa continued to shout out in her subconscious. His face looks wet in the shade of sweat grains. His body was hot, while his face was pale.

"I don't want Mom to get divorced!. I beg Dad! don't let Mama go!. I don't want to be away from Mama. I don't want to be away from you either!."

"Dad, stop Mama from leaving!. Why do you have to get divorced?. Don't you think about my feelings?. I need you both. Why don't you guys understand?" yell Annisa again.

"Miss, realize. You're dreaming" one of the nurses who was guarding Annisa, shook Annisa's arm. But Annisa has not returned from her subconscious.

"Are we just giving him a sedative" the nurse's friend said.

"We have to wait for the doctor who handles it. We must not carelessly give him medicine" the nurse replied.

"But from that moment he kept delirious."

"It looks like Doctor William is coming soon. We better just wait and try to resuscitate her."

Chequek!

The treatment room was open from outside. The two nurses in the room turned their heads. There was a tall, straight man coming in.

"Where is he?" ask the blaster-faced Indonesian man with a heavy voice.

"From that moment Miss kept shouting, Mr" the nurse replied.

Mr. Boy sighed then approached Annisa who was lying on top of the gurney. Mr. Boy sat his body on the edge of the gurney facing Annisa after the two nurses moved away.

"Annisa" called Mr. Boy gently, then wiped the sweat off Annisa's forehead with her handkerchief.

Annisa who was called did not hear it. The teenage girl was busy with her cries.

"You go out" Mr. Boy ordered the two female nurses.

"Well, Mr" obeyed the two nurses.

After the door of the room was closed, it was closed again. Mr. Boy immediately gulped down the drinking water that was on the nightstand, then gushed it into Annisa's face.

Annisa woke up and opened her eyes. The teenage girl instantly hardened her jaw seeing Mr. Boy's face smiling towards her.

"What dream are you? Hm!" Mr. Boy reappeared Annisa's face wet from the spray.

"Abang Boy is very annoying" Annisa's wrath then took his cousin's hand and immediately bit him.

"Let's!" Mr. Boy screamed in pain.
