For Your Mother's sake, You Betrayed Me
Early Happiness


"Congratulations, your baby was born female" the doctor said.


Zahra gave thanks for giving birth to her baby. He could breathe a sigh of relief now. Bi Ani was also happy to see the hue of happiness on Zahra's face.


"Congratulations Neng Zahra, Neng finally has a daughter now" said Bi Ani.


Zahra nodded with a smile. He gave thanks in his heart. "Thank God, thank God. You have given strength to your servant" Zahra said in his heart.


The crying of the baby continues to fill that delivery room. Outside, Reza also kept pacing back and forth waiting for the doctor who came out of the room.


"Why hasn't anyone come out yet? How is Zahra? I hope everything is fine" Reza said in his heart.


Half an hour waiting finally there was one of the sisters who came out of the room. Reza immediately approached the nurse. "Sus, how is the patient inside. The labor process is smooth, right?" ask Reza.


"The delivery process is smooth, sir. Then, the sex of the baby is female" the nurse replied.


"Alhamdulillah, when can I visit Sus?"


"In the near future, the patient has been moved to the treatment room. Then excuse me, sir!"


Reza nodded and said, "Thank you for the information."


A sense of relief permeated the depths of Reza's heart. He was happy with the news. It felt like he was already impatient to go inside and meet Zahra.


Half an hour waiting, Zahra had already moved in the treatment room. Reza went in to see him. "Assalamualaikum" said Reza with a smile.


"Goodoo, Mas!" answer Zahra.


Reza approached where Zahra was lying. "How are you doing? I'm so happy that you can give birth normally without a hitch, Zahra," Reza said.


"Alhamdulillah Mas, I can give birth and my baby is born normal. I'm so afraid that she's premature, "reply Zahra. "Mas, will you do something for me?" ask Zahra expectantly.


"Whatever I'll do for you, Zahra" Reza said.


"I want you to treat my baby Mas. Then, give him a good name."


Reza was silent for a moment and smiled."All right, then I'll give you the name 'Sazhia'. What say?" ask Reza.


"Sazhia, nice name Mas. Sazhija ...." Zahra seemed pleased with the name given by Reza.


Reza also persecuted Sazhia with seriousness. Zahra's tears trickled down looking at the moment. "Mas Rizal, may you see from there. I'll take care of our baby until it grows up. I will educate him to be a devoted and Sholihah child" Zahra said in her heart.


A few minutes later, Reza had finished prosecuting Sazhia. He carried his nephew beside Zahra. "Look, his face looks like yours. Very pretty and gentle. His lips look like Rizal, if he saw it must be very happy," Reza told Zahra.


"Mas, thank you for giving me support and encouragement all this time. Thank you for being my source of strength. Mas, I want to talk to you about something. Maybe it's the right time. I want to marry you. I want to be your wife, and I also you to be the father of my two children. Sazhia and Keynara" said Zahra, filled with tears.


Reza smiled, she was very happy to hear Zahra's words. The words he had been waiting for all this time had already been spoken from those lips. Reza stroked Zahra's head. "I can't believe you're saying this, Zahra. I have been waiting for these words for a long time. On this day you give me the answer to how I feel about you. Thank you for the reply of my love for you. Wait for you I'll propose to you and we'll get married officially" Reza replied. He looks so happy.


"Yes Mas I will maintain health to recover quickly. One thing I doubt, my. I'm afraid that if you change someday because of the flaws I have. If that happens, maybe I can't live if I have to be hurt a second time" Zahra replied.


"What do you doubt, Zahra. You tell me now so I can fix it."


"Mas, you know my very weak womb is very difficult to get pregnant. After we get married, of course, you'll want to be descended from me. I'm afraid I can't make that happen, Mom. I was worried that you left me just because ...."


"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I don't wanna hear that. Don't doubt me just because it's Zahra. I accept you for who you are with all your shortcomings. Don't punish yourself because we don't know what God's destiny is? If you can't give me offspring it's okay because I already consider Keynara and Sazhia as my own children. I will give them my heartfelt affection like my real son. Trust me, because I want you to be happy to build a household with me. I love you Zahra, more than anything in the world."


Zahra nodded happily, her tears did not stop flowing. "Thank God. So I'm not worried about this second marriage, if you can accept me sincerely. I believe you," Zahra replied.


"Either. No need to worry and think. Now happy you are because I will realize whatever you want. I will also find a nanny for Sazhia. So you can handle everything without the need for soy sauce. No protests and no rejects, I have to because I want what's best for you" Reza said, kissing Sazhia's cheek.


Zahra chuckles. "I haven't talked yet, Mom! Why should two nannies already have Lilis? For Sazhia I want to get closer to her. So that I can be a perfect mother."


"You can still be the perfect mother. I mean, you're part of giving love to Sazhia and also Keynara. If it's about help or when you watch the night let the babysitter replace him. You can rest well."


"OK okay I accept this kindness, and I can only say thank you" Zahra replied.


"I'm not asking anything from you, Zahra. I just need love and care when we get married. How's it?"


"Yes, I understand now. Then I will be a good wife for you after marriage later, because you have not become your wife, you always try your best for me, Mas. So I have to pay him in return, which is worth it" said Zahra.


"Don't it have to be?"


Zahra nodded and smiled. A complete happiness was seen from his smile.


"Thank you Zahra. That smile is what I have missed all along. The smile that I saw first when you visited in front of Papa and Mama. A smile that makes me unable to forget you. I can finally see him back. May this happiness be established until old age. Amiijin!" reza said in his heart.
