Becoming Like My Mother
CHAPTER 51
Fahmi is glued to see the appearance of Melati and her daughter. Although he uses a robe and hijab syar'i, Melati's beauty is increasingly visible. Well, right now they are getting ready to go to Father Melati's house for Aidan's aqiqah event.
Melati chose to wear a cream-colored robe and a matching hijab. His pinched stomach makes him more comfortable wearing a robe. He also often uses a robe.
Not to forget he also prepared the same clothes for Farah. They really do look like mothers and biological children. Sasa was unable to attend the event because he preferred to work. Indeed, for career affairs, Sasa was completely inviolable.
"Dad, do I look pretty?" Farah asked with a twist of her body.
"Of course it's a pity" Fahmi said by kissing her son many times.
"Dad stop, ticklish..!" Farah held back her laughter.
"Yes, let's go now." Said to stick to both.
"Yes come on."
They all rushed out of the house.

How surprised Melati saw the presence of Azein in her father's house. Indeed Ikhsan deliberately invited the Azein family because he himself with his father Azein was a friend. So naturally, he shared the happiness he was feeling with his best friend.
Azein's heart throbbed in pain watching the hand of the woman he loved intertwine with another man. Moreover, he also found the belly of Melati that looks bloated.
He prefers to turn his face away, while Melati just looks at the sad face of Azein. To be honest, his feelings for Azein were still the same.
Although they have not met for a long time, there is no denying that the hearts of the two are still kept the name of each other.
Manik Melati found the presence of her best friend Aaz beside her brother. He immediately approached Aaz and hugged her. She let go of her husband's hand.
"Az, how are you?,"
"Alhamdulillah good Mel. You how?"
"I'm good too."
Looking at the smile on Melati's face, Azein was able to conclude that it was true that Melati lived just fine after marriage. While he himself can only be pensive and do not know what he wants to do every day. He just feels more claustrophobic.
The expression of Azein's face can be clearly seen by Fahmi. He also had a glance at the man with his wife, indeed when their eyes met he could see the longing gaze between the two.
Fahmi did not feel angry or hate with the man in front of him, only he felt sick when he saw the gaze of his wife. However, he did not want to dispute this right now.
"Lati finally you came too." Said Alif disperse the daydreams of Jasmine.
"Oh yes, brother, sorry I'm late." Said Melati not well.
"It's okay Melati is the most important thing you're here. Let's just go inside."
"I go first, Az" said Melati to her best friend.
"Yes Mel,"
Melati and her husband and son approached Aidan who was cutting his hair. Baby Aidan is so handsome and adorable.
"Son Melati..!" Call Husein from a distance. He looks very enthusiastic approaching Melati.
While stretching his hands, in fact, a few months did not meet with his sister made him miss.
"How are you, Boy?" Ask Melati.
"Of course it's very good. You know, every night I accompany Aidan. I didn't renege on my promise yet Brother."
"Good, my brother was glad to hear it."
"Who's that brother?" Husein pointed towards Farah with the glare of his eyes.
"Ouh her name is Farah. Come on, brother introduce her to you." Melati took Husein's hand to Farah. He aligned his body with Farah.
"Honey this is Husein, Mother's sister. And Husein introduced this Farah the prettiest princess here." Melati introduced both.
Husein smiled at Farah and extended his hand. Farah looked up at Father, her eyes looking as if asking for his approval.
Fahmi smiled and nodded, Farah put on her sweet smile and received a helping hand from Husein.
"Son Fahmi.." Call Mr. Ikhsan to the husband of his daughter.
"Yes Well," Fahmi smiled and immediately walked over to his father-in-law. Don't forget he kissed the back of Mr. Ikhsan's hand.
Ikhsan smiled at Fahmi's behavior. Although at first he hated this man in front of him, but now he can see the soul of responsibility from his son-in-law.
After all, she also never heard bad news from her man who was sent to monitor her daughter and the treatment of her husband. Even he deliberately sent art at his daughter-in-law's house.
"Assalamu'alaikum's chat.." Said Mr. Faris entering his iron residence. Not to forget the wife beside him followed by his son Humaira behind them.
"Wa'alaikumsalam..," Ikhsan immediately smiled and welcomed the friendly arrival of the iron.
Melati also immediately smiled to see the presence of the friend she missed so much. He quickly approached and hugged Maira.
"How are you Mai?" Ask her while releasing her embrace.
"Good thanks Mel, how are you?"
"Thank God, I'm good too Mai."
"Well, I'm going for a minute with my best friend." Pamit Melati to Her Father.
"Yes dear," replied Ikhsan smiling.
Fahmi continued to pay attention to his wife, for some reason feeling of anxiety approached her. He was afraid that his wife would meet the man he had seen. Until the voice of his father-in-law distracts him.
"Oh yes Mai was Aaz too. Let's find him for a second, yeah." Melati said to Maira.
"Yes, uh that's Mel." Maira pointed towards her best friend who was talking to a man. The man who made his heart beat was racing suddenly.
"Eh yes, Aaz." Melati waved her hand, and Aaz noticed her presence.
Aaz threw her sweet smile and walked over to the bumil.
"Eh you're here too it turns out Mai."
"Yes Az," Maira smiled.
They decided to sit down to find a place that was not too crowded. Without Melati noticing, Azein continued to pay attention to her.
"Oh yeah Mel, you haven't heard from me in a long time. What about your life in your husband's house?, how's your honey's treatment going?, I hope you're okay." Aaz said anxiously,
Melati smiled, "I'm fine Mel,"
"Mel, our friendship has been established for so long. Even we already consider each other's brothers." Maira said.
"I'm really fine Mai," said Melati reassured. It's not okay. His madness just silenced him and never acted rude or insulting him. She will be angry if Melati is close to her husband, Melati herself did indeed understand him.
Her daughter also loved her very much, and for Mas Fahmi, she often got the attention of her husband. It's just that, he himself sometimes refused because he was not happy with his honey.
"Yes already then. I'm glad you're okay, too." Aaz's words are sincere.
