20 Years Adrift
Chapter 55. Humiliating Yourself


Amanda walked over to Aira. He hoped to provoke her into feeling pity.


Envy had gnawed at his heart and made him feel unwilling if Aira was happy living with Affan


"Aira, would you let this child live without a father. It doesn't matter if Affan doesn't divorce you as long as he can be fair."


All eyes were staring at the two of them. The atmosphere became increasingly tense.


Aira was speechless. His position went wrong. This matter is not easy for him.


Faya let go of her hand that was originally holding Aira's hand. His young soul was stirring at the sight of his mother, intimidated by the circumstances.


"Auntie Amanda, I'm one hundred percent sure that the child doesn't belong to me. A photograph is not enough to be proof of a relationship. Times have changed and technology is very sophisticated, it could be a fake photo and just edit." Faya spoke out loud.


Everyone was shocked to hear his words. They agree with Faya. However, there were also those who sided with Amanda.


Amanda's face looks pias. Although Faya's accusations are reasonable but he doesn't want to lose so soon.


"What are you saying, Faya? Your dad and I have been best friends since High School, we've been through a lot together. Your mother knows about this, too." Amanda was crying.


A female employee from the same division as Amanda comes to him. He shows his concern by accompanying Amanda.


In another corner Affan was sending a message to Bimo to testify on the matter. In addition to his right hand, he was also his closest person who knew for sure how he used his time.


Bimo who was welcoming guests at the entrance immediately ran over to Affan. The message from the boss and his best friend made him not calm. All this time he knew that Amanda was very cunning and several times tried to trap Affan.


"Boss!" bimo exclaimed with his breath burning.


"Amanda accused me of impregnating her."


That short sentence was already clear enough for Bimo. Not wanting to ask any further she lowered her head and picked up the photos spread by Amanda.


His blood was boiling looking at the inappropriate image in his hands. His hand gripped the photo firmly and then released it with an irregular shape.


"Tell me again if it's Mr. Affan's son, Amanda!" peekik Bimo's. His sharp eyes looked so scary.


The room suddenly quiet. They know who Bimo is. Outside of his job he is an honest person and has many relationships with important people in this country.


Amanda lowered. His eyes twitched indicating he was nervous. Fighting Bimo is like digging his own grave.


"I'm pregnant with Affan's child." Retreating will only make him destroyed. Equally devastated he chose to come forward with his entire lie.


"Oh, yes. When did you meet and have a relationship? Twenty-four hours a day Mr. Affan is always haunting me. Even his phone is also often held. And one more thing, he never saved your phone number."


Amanda did not answer.


Aira walked over to Amanda. His little heart felt pity even though he did not like the crimes committed by him.


"Mr Manda, don't embarrass yourself by slandering, Mas Affan. I know the suffering of a woman who is pregnant without a husband, do not add to your suffering with regret after hurting others."


Affan approached Aira and touched her shoulder. Her chest felt tight to see the party that was destroyed because of Amanda.


"Know what you are with suffering. I've been investigating you guys who got married for coercion. At least I'm better than you. You just use Affan to be your source of money. Perhaps you too will never be able to get pregnant for not justifying your body for her." Instead of regretting her actions, Amanda attacked Aira with her hurtful words.


Affan felt very angry. This time he could no longer hold himself back. His pride as a man feels stepped on if he is silent.


"It looks like you're very curious about people's affairs, Amanda. Well, I'm telling you the truth."


Affan looked at Aira as if asking for approval to say the beginning of their marriage.


Aira nodded slowly. He sincerely dark story he experienced known by the world.


Affan told a glimpse of the forced marriage he had experienced. Misunderstandings and fabrications committed by Aira's former fiancee keep them trapped in a loveless marriage.


Over time they accept each other and live life as a real married couple. At the end of the story, Affan gave happy news stating that his little wife was pregnant with her child.


Circumstances turn. Intentions want to make Aira destroyed but what happens Amandalah heart melted. There is no hope of getting Affan because it is certain that his heart will not turn away from Aira.


Deeply embarrassed, Amanda turned around and walked away quickly. Bimo clutched his hand firmly. He couldn't let her go after what she did.


"Let go of me" Amanda said in a rambunctious voice.


"No way!" exclaim Bimo.


"Let him go!" exciting Aira.


The shame Amanda felt was already more than enough punishment. It could be that after this he will experience psychological disorders due to his own actions.
