Forced Marriage (Secret Wife)
3

Hanz took Ara to the room that the girl was going to occupy. Ara's room is right next to her room. Well, he deliberately brought Ara there, there happened to be one empty room left on the top floor. Of course he will not let his wife be one of the residents of the mess the servants behind the house.

"This room is so big, so beautiful. Is it not a matter of the sleep nanny here?"

"You're my wife, so it doesn't matter. You should've been in a comfortable room."

"But they know I'm a babysitter."

Hanz began to wake up, jeez...

He did not think of it, he had already provoked his family's suspicions.***** him.

"Ouch, stop. Everything has already been done, later I will find a reason if they are," said Hanz who currently seems hesitant with his own words.

"Mas, I sleep in the maid's room just don't papa."

"No, you stay here. I don't want to be denied." Ara could only fall silent with her husband's stubborn decision.

"Rest, you must be tired" said Hanz, then out of nowhere he peeked at Ara's soft forehead. The instantaneous thing made the girl speechless shocked by the face that was again blushing. Even when the man went out of his room, he was still perfect.

After cleaning up, Ara came out of her room. He thought it was time to do his job as a nanny. Although he is not painstaking to take care of small children, but he is very fond of children\-kids. They are more like adorable twins.

He went downstairs and looked for\-search for the twins. But he did not find them, only Anisa there who was busy watching television.

"Ara, I want to talk to you for a second."

Ara who was about to leave turned back after hearing Anisa's voice.

"Is she Miss?"

Anisa watched Ara from the bottom to the top. Her brows frowned at the knee-length dress that Ara was wearing. As he remembered this afternoon he saw Ara coming in a slum, wearing a typical village skirt. Why was she wearing such a beautiful house dress this afternoon?

"Well, your dressing sense is excellent. You're so pretty wearing this dress Ara. Your real charm is becoming more visible. If you go to my school, you'll be a prima donna." said Anisa enthusiastically. Well, he felt the twins were right, their nanny this time was very beautiful. Ara's face is not suitable to be a nanny.

"I\-it's not me who chose miss. Ma\-Tuan Hanzen bought it earlier." said Ara awkwardly. He almost slipped to call Hanz with panghilan mas.

"really? Wow, even my sister who was cold to the woman bought a nanny clothes, she herself chose even," said Anisa mangguk\- Nodding with a grin on his face made Ara grimace in his heart because he had misspoken.

"Ara, why don't you go to school?"

"Ah that.., my parents can no longer afford my school miss."

"Don't call me miss, I'm upset by your call, just call me Icha. And you don't have to talk that formal to me."

"It's A\-Anisa."

"Ara, if you want I can tell mommy to be papah so you can go to my school. Mama Sama papah will definitely finance all your school costs." said Anisa made ara surprised. He did not expect Anisa as well as this wanted to offer him an offer that he had hoped for. In the past he really hoped that there was a kind person who could help him realize the dream, he promised that if he succeeded later, he would repay the services of that person. But now, the offer came at an inopportune time. He is married, he can no longer go to school. There's no way Hanz would allow it.

"Thank you Anisa, that's not necessary. Right now I just want to work alone to help my father and mother in the village," he said not entirely a lie. She still intends to help pay off her father and mother's debt with her salary as a nanny. Even though he did not know, Hanz had paid off all his parents' debts at that time.

"Yahh, what a pity. I would love to have a friend like you. Same\-sama went to school, equally\-sama studied. It must be very exciting," said Icha disappointed. Ara was not feeling good to him.

"Aunty.." suddenly the twins shouted. Then run towards Anisa and Ara.

"Aunty Icha hasn't had a bath yet? Smell of asem tau. Mending Reno is just like Ara's aunt," said Reno then hold Ara's hand and invite her to sit on the sofa.

Anisa looked upset at Reno, then she passed from there with her face off. It is certain that he will go to his room and then immediately go to the bathroom to clean himself.

"Rena Sama Reno already fragrant\-wangi. Who takes a shower, baby? How not to call aunty Ara aja let aunty Ara bathe."

"Lena in bathin same mother aunt. If Leno takes a bath sendili." said Rena.

"Reno does not want aunty in the shower with the mother, Reno is already big, Reno is embarrassed."

"Next time aunty Ara who bathe well baby, do not mother again. That's aunt Ara's job. Reno will also be bathed in the same about Ara well."

"Ihh, Reno doesn't want Aunt Ara. Reno shy at seeing aunt Ara. Teacher Reno said, we can't be naked in front of our girl, it's a sin."

"Ihh Leno, Aunt Ala is not your girl. Aunty Ala's the girl's uncle. Leno's a kid, can't make it. Bleee.." ledek Rena on Reno who is now pouting.

While Ara had just laughed just to see the funny behavior of these two twin boys.

"Tante Ala, I was going to tell my mother that Lena wants to be treated with Aunt Ala, but my mother said Aunt Ala again lamaat. Said Aunty Ala cape."

"Tante Ara is not tired, now aunt Ara wants to maen you guys."

"Why? Okay deh aunt, aunt Ala come to kamal Lena aja yu, Lena show Lena's doll is big\-besal."

"No, Aunt Ara's coming to Reno's room. More advanced Reno toys\-sophisticated."

"If so we go to Rena's room just used to be the same\-sama. Then we went to Reno's room. How's it?" asked Ara softly made the two children scream hurrah then kissed her cheeks one\-one.

Ara was very happy, Rena and Reno loved it. And they are also good and manageable children.

Dinner came, all the families gathered at the dinner table. Ara ushered Rena and Reno in their seats after the two children played with her, showing each other the contents of their rooms.

"Ara, you just sit here and eat with us" said Anisa while pointing at the seat to her left and coincided to the right of Hanz.

Both men are wrong. Hanz who had been busy watching Ara who turned out to be so beautiful when she was wearing decent clothes. He was fascinated, either reached from earlier he could not take his eyes away from Ara.

"But... "

"Here you sit down. No need to be awkward." now the big master spoke up to make him want to not even sit there awkwardly.

"Horee, Aunt Ara sat down to eat as well," Reno shouted as she clapped her two tiny hands.

"She, Lena is also happy aunt Ala ate here with us," now the lisp Rena is talking. Everyone looked at the twins with a smile.

After dinner, we walked in silence. There was no sound other than the sound of spoons and forks clashing with plates. That was already the rule in the Zeino family. And the twins have been taught the little things so they also eat quietly and peacefully. Afraid her opa firm will be angry.

Well, in that house everyone was afraid of Mutual, no one dared to break the man's orders. His decisiveness and compassion set many good examples for his family. Including Hanz himself who admired and idolized his papa.

Soon after, dinner was over. And as usual, all the families will gather to talk for a while.  Except for the twins who had gone into their rooms to sleep.

That's all the rules set by Mutsa so that his family who are equally busy with their activities throughout the day can spend time with the family.

Anisa pulling Ara's hand made the girl surprised and feel bad. Anisa brings him along to join their family.

"Let's come along, someone will tell you the same papah."

Ara was confused, her heart was pounding incoherently. What will the great master tell him?

"Ara come here, sit here."

Hanz was actually wondering why his papa invited Ara to join them as well. They knew Ara was a nanny. If he ate earlier he could understand because Rena and Reno would love it, so his family allowed Ara to join. But it's a family event, it's not natural that Ara who they know as a nanny comes along.

But even so, he remained silent because he was also happy for Ara to join his family. Ara was his wife, though he could not admit it now.

"Ara, earlier Icha asked us to send you to school as well.." instantly all eyes widened surprised to hear the words of Reksa, in addition to Anisa and Samira of course.

Hanz was similarly surprised, but he tried to calm down even more.

"But you refused, why did you reject Ara's good intentions? If you want, we'll pay for all your tuition. You don't have to be afraid."

Ara was silent, at a glance she looked at Hanz like she wanted to ask how this is?

Hanz understood the meaning of Ara's gaze, he knew Ara must be a dilemma. And he knew that Ara actually wanted to go to school again, but because of their marriage, Ara might take it hard.

Actually he was also happy if Ara went to school again, somehow and since when it was clear he became strange with himself who felt like seeing Ara happy. And he knows, school is one of Ara's wishes and dreams, surely the girl will be very happy.

"I can't sir. I have to work to pay off my father's debt to my mother in the village. I'm also here to babysit Rena with Reno. If I go to school, who will take care of them?"

Hanz grimaced inwardly upon hearing Ara's reply. He forgot to tell her that he had paid off all of Ara's parents' debts before they came here. In fact, he has given money for business capital to his two in-laws.

"If you don't have to worry, we can find a new nanny for them. And as for your parents' debt problems, you take it easy, we'll pay everything to the full extent..."

"No need for reward." Hanz quickly cut off the words of his papa. He was very surprised when his papah said he would pay the debt. If the papa intervened to pay the debt, then it could be ascertained that the history was finished. Because after all, the secret of their marriage will definitely be revealed later. He really isn't ready.

All eyes are looking at him questioningly.

"That ahh.., yesterday I-I already paid for everything before we came here" he said honestly making everyone gawk in disbelief staring at him.

Ara is not much different from the others. He was also very surprised to learn that Hanz had already paid his parents' debts before they left. He didn't expect Hanz to be that good and the man was so responsible. I don't know why his heart warmed up, like something was creeping and making his skin rustle.

"Why are you paying off all of Ara's parents' debts?" gery asked the suspicious sister-in-law.

"That's it.., I just want to help. I saw them in distress so I felt that while I could, I had to help." instead, everyone just nodded and pretended to understand, even though they were in their hearts full of questions.

"Then how is Ara? Do you want to go to school with Icha?" tanya Reksa again makes Ara clumsy not know what other reason to refuse. There was no way he would have said that he was married.

The tail of his eyes was pointed at Hanz as if asking for the man's opinion. And how amazed she was when she saw her husband's head nodding like saying allow it.

Finally, with a smile and happy, he nodded his head. He wanted to go to school, this was a golden opportunity for him.

"Sir, I will." she replied making everyone breathe a sigh of relief. Well, everyone does feel sorry for Ara, a girl as good as Ara had to drop out of school just to help finance her parents' debt, a very kind girl.

"Ara, can I ask you something?" now Alea is speaking.

"What mistress?"

"Oh no, don't call madam, just call brother okay?"

"Ah well, Brother Alea." said Ara awkwardly

"Ara, do you have an older sister?" Ara frowned in wonder. Why did Alea ask that?

"No, I'm the only child."

"Owhhhh." he said nodding to himself making others look at him in wonder.

"What's Alea?" ask the oma.

"No, Alea thought Ara had an older sister so Hanz was willing to pay Ara's parents' debt. Who knows Hanz likes his brother Ara so he changed that." at once Hanz also choked on his own saliva to hear his brother's original lewd mouth.

"Why Hanz? How shocked is that? Is it not the one you love Ara?" Alea unceasingly spoke nonsense making Hanz look at him sharply.

"Sir Alea don't like the origin of the talk well," Hanz annoyed to make the others laugh with satisfaction. Teasing Hanz is fun.

"Then when are you going to marry Hanz? You're 27 years old, it's time for a household. Find another woman, don't keep closing yourself. Sahara will never come back again until anytime." said Reksa made everything instantly silent.

If it comes to the Sahara, then Hanz will behave another way again. The man chose silence and then left from there, he would never make peace with the situation if he remembered about the Sahara. He will hate every circumstance and blame the circumstances that once set him and the Sahara apart in such a cruel and tragic way.

Everyone stared at Hanz's back, which was moving towards his room above. No exception Ara who is now left with extraordinary curiosity.

Who's Sahara? Is Sahara the woman Hanz loves? He recalled that night also during a heavy rain, vaguely Hanz mentioned the name. He wanted to ask them, but he was afraid it would invite suspicion. There was nothing he could do but look down miserably, it turned out that Hanz loved someone. I don't know why his heart is broken and sick. Has he fallen in love?
