Enmeshed in Love
Chapter 50

Rena glared in disbelief hearing what Arfian was going to say. There was no way that Arfian would actually marry this woman in front of him.

"Arfian are you serious?" Ask Rena.

"yes, remember that you have no right to me anymore. You are neither a wife nor someone important in my life right now, don't interfere in my affairs." Firmly Arfian, stared at Rena sharply.

Rena gulps. In his heart to be honest he still could not forget about Arfian completely. He may be living with Ben now but Arfian remains an important person. Rena realizes that Arfian is better than Ben in any respect.

"ayo Rahel, I'll take you home." Arfian clasped Rachel's hand, taking the woman away.

Didn't mind Rena crying over it.

Arfian is not thinking about Rena. Why the woman can-can't say still love, clearly he was the first to declare if he loved Ben more than he did. Why is that woman so complicated and complicating herself.

Without realizing it he was busy daydreaming his hand was still holding Rachel's hand. Walked to his car.

"sister Ar..." Call Rahel.

"ah.iya.what's up?" Arfian frowned as Rachel suddenly stopped her steps.

His eyes were fixed on the hands of those who held each other. Ardian quickly let go, becoming awkward because of it.

"forgive me Rachel." He said, "come in." Arfian opened the front door for Rachel.

Rachel quickly entered and sat down. His face flushed with embarrassment over what had happened. His heart even beats very fast, Arfian's hand grip is still felt even though it has been released.

Bruck...

Rachel gasped at the sound of the car door closing. Arfian had apparently entered and was now sitting next to him.

The man started the engine of his car and quickly drove it forward.

"Rohar..."

"yes, what's wrong?" Rachel looked at Arfian who was focusing on driving.

Without even glancing at Rachel, Arfian said.

"forgive me that time in the hospital, I was forced to say that I'm an Echa candidate, all because of her, maybe that way my ex-wife won't bother me anymore."

Rachel's face turned grim. He was disappointed to hear Arfian. How could the man lift her up high again knock her down so hard. Rachel was happy just now, but now hearing Arfian's words made her heart ache.

He realized that at any moment there would never be himself in the man's heart.

"yes, understand." Reply Rachel.

Without Arfian knowing if the woman beside him was holding back crying. Rachel was disappointed and hurt.

After the conversation, the situation in the car became quiet. Rachel was silent as was Arfian. The man felt very guilty for saying everything, for some reason he felt that he had said something cruel.

"where's your house?" Arfian asked, trying to revive the atmosphere.

Rachel took a quick look at Arfian and replied.

"i'm just down in front."

"why?"

"my house goes through a narrow alley, Ar's car won't get in." Evidently.

"all right, in that alley?"

"yes."

Arfian stopped the car. He was going down to open the door for Rachel. But the woman was neither Rena nor Hanum, without waiting to be opened she had opened it herself. Arfian shut the door again, put his seatbelt on.

"thank you, Ar." Rachel then closed the door.

Arfian watched Rachel who was walking into the alley. It felt like I was going to drive her home, make sure everything was okay. It's late at night it's not good for a woman to walk alone in a quiet place like this. Prone to crime.

Arfian quickly opened the seatbelt and exited. Chasing Rahel who was already halfway in front of him.

"haha...." Exhaling as soon as it caught up with him.

"why did Ar follow me?"

"i'm just making sure you're okay. I'll take you home."

Hanum slept uneasily, it was hard to close his eyes. He got up and got out of his bed. Walked to Leon's room, saw his son who was now asleep.

"sad, forgive mom." Lirih Hanum, stroking chubby Leon's cheeks.

Hanum wants what's best for his son, trying to do whatever it takes to make Leon happy. But now he is confused. Arfian didn't even look at him anymore. The man was disappointed in him.

All he could do to make his son happy. Hanum climbed into Leon's bed, closed his eyes and tried to sleep.

The next day, he woke up early. Maybe following what Rachel said would be a good thing today. Hanum plans to visit Echa, then apologizes to Arfian. Promised to be a good mother to Echa.

"dad, cold.." Leon complains in Hanum's arms.

The boy had just finished his bath, his fat body was just wrapped in a blanket.

"let's get some clothes on." Hanum dropped Leon off and dressed him immediately.

"mom, where are we going?"

Leon felt confused because he usually never took a shower this early. Hanum smiled, stroking Leon's cheeks gently.

"we look at Echa."

"brother Echa, hooyyeee..." Shouts pleased. Leon doesn't understand the word look.

He thought he was going to play with Echa so he was very happy. The boy jumped up and down in joy.

Arfian had just changed Echa's clothes, then fed her some porridge.

"Arfian, mamah really likes the girl you brought here last night, she's so soft and Echa seems to be comfortable with her." Rada.

Arfian smiled and laughed softly.

"iya mama. But Rachel is just my friend.I know what you want to say, must ask me to make her Echa's mother right?" Kekeh Arfian, well aware of his in-laws' thoughts.

Rada hit Arfian's head slowly. This daughter-in-law could indeed be, very understanding of what she was like.

"Echa also likes Rachel's sister." Echa Timpal.

Arfian raised one eyebrow.

"really? Daddy likes it too. She's a good woman, too." Unknowingly Arfian smiled as he said that.

I don't know why he remembered back in school. Rachel was very active and knew many people because of her intelligence. Tomboy and cheerful. Active in school activities and always follow any events held by the school.

He used to feel used to seeing her but now Arfian just feels that Rachel is amazing. What because he was so blinded by Hanum that he did not glance at Rachel in the slightest.

"Daddy, Echa wants Rachel's sister to be Echa's mommy."

"yes, mommy agrees too."

"hahaha.kalian conspire yes.well, Daddy also likes it but does Brother Rachel like Daddy huh?" Temptation Arfian, actually he is not so serious with his words.

Because you know, there's no way Rachel still loves her like she used to. Moreover, he knew that if he was close to Hanum, he must have done something like that in school. Support Hanum to stay beside him.

Hanum's hand clutched tightly onto the doorknob of Echa's outpatient room. He was about to go inside, but hearing the conversation of the three people inside made him stop to enter.

Leon looked up, staring at Hanum who was silent.

"mom, open the door."

Hanum. He smiled at Leon.

"no Leon, we're not going in." He said, "let's meet Rachel first."

Hanum hurriedly left Echa's room. He couldn't let that happen, how could he have seen Rachel and Arfian together.

Rega and Sena finally arrive at the hospital. They didn't come yesterday because Sena fell asleep on the couch waiting for Rega to get ready.

"is that not the woman with Arfian's sister." Exciting Rega.

Sena looked where Rega was looking. He nodded his head, clearly remembering that the woman walking in front of them was holding Hanum. The woman Arfian will marry.

They don't know if Arfian has canceled his wedding plans. Rega quickly greeted him as they passed by.

"how's it going, you just visited Echa?"

Hanum clenched his grip on Leon's small hand.

"yes." The answer.

"waaah.is he your son? handsome too." Rega.

"yes, I'm sorry I have to leave immediately." Hanum left in a hurry.

"why is he so hasty." Rega.

"maybe it's busy." Sena answered. "let's go, we should also meet Echa soon." Sena dragged Rega.
