A Sugar Baby

A Sugar Baby
Silent Treatment


Daniel was really angry at Lea. Even when he returned home, he did not touch his wife at all.


He has been humiliated by Lea in front of potential investors. His pride seemed to be trampled on, by the person he even loved so much at this time.


"Feed first." Lea said, sending a short message to Daniel. For he had gone up twice and knocked at the door of Daniel's room. But her husband did not open at all.


"Mas, yes if you don't want me. I eat in the room, you don't eat."


Leah went back downstairs, she took food and ate in the room. When he was done and out to put the dishes, Daniel was not at the dinner table.


Even until the morning, the dishes made by Lea did not touch Daniel in the slightest. Leah was so sad, yet she refrained from crying.


He knew he was wrong, the woman then cleaned the dining table and replaced it with a breakfast menu.


Daniel went down a few minutes later, but his attitude did not change. He was still indifferent to Lea. To make the appetite for Lea's morning meal, suddenly disappeared. He could not be kept quiet like this, better Daniel was angry or even yelled at him.


"Wasn't breakfast?" ask Lea.


Daniel cuek and taking a bottle of cold water in the refrigerator, the man drank it and then he headed for the elevator. Daniel left that morning without greeting Leah. Lea's heart was so hard hit.

"Lagian elo, you should find out the truth first. I'm sure that's what Clarissa did. You see, he's coming with your men out of town.


Lea nodded.


"Beware of emotions, Le. People who want to destroy us, will be very cool if we are the same partner we are noisier. In public, they applaud. Because that's what they want. This is my nyokap word that I often mintain advice."


Leah sighed, she herself had nowhere to ask for advice. Except for Nina who was also both still a boy like her. Want to ask his mother for advice is not possible, because the contents of his mother's head is just money.


"Gue really, really nyesel, Nin. Why am I doing all that, finally my husband is embarrassed in front of the crowd."


"Eat him next time you think about it, Le. Where you're pregnant too."


"Pregnant?"


Suddenly Iqbal appeared followed by Rama, Dani, Adisty and Ariana. Iqbal seemed to be carrying a bouquet of flowers, confusing Lea as well as Nina.


"Lo's pregnant?" Iqbal asked Lea with a surprised and angry face.


"Iqbal?" Leah said as she watched them all.


"Gue just wanted to shoot you, Lea. Who are you pregnant with?" Iqbal said in a half-screaming tone and a hunting breath.


"Ne, shoot me?"


Lea said as she looked at Iqbal, she turned to look at Nina and looked back at the young man.


"Ma, what do you mean Bal?" ask Lea.


"What does it mean, who are you pregnant?"


"Lea is married."


Nina made everyone there surprised.


"Have you got married?" ask Adisty not to believe it.


"All you see is picking me up, he's my husband" Lea said.


"No, no way."


Iqbal dropped the bouquet of flowers he was carrying, then just left. Rama and Dani followed their friend.


"Iqbal."


"Iqbal."


Lea asked Adisty in a nearly crying tone. He was tired of his life problems. Soon Adisty sat down with Ariana near Lea, and the girl began to explain.


"So all this time Iqbal likes me?" lea asked Adisty and Ariana. Nina was watching.


"Yes, Le. Even he asked our opinion many times, how to shoot elo."


Ariana said, Lea was silent. It's only fitting that Iqbal always paid attention to him.


"Emang you guys don't know, Lea was picked up sometimes also delivered with her husband?" ask Nina.


"Where do we know, the Iqbal say it's your father. He made a rumor that your father married young and had children at a young age too."


Lea sighed, honestly this all made her mind more runny.


"I tried to talk to Iqbal" he said later.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, Iqbal drove his car at high speed. He was hit several times by a red light.


This made both of his friends very angry. Rama and Dani follow Iqbal in Rama's car. Then at some point, they could overtake and stop Iqbal.


"Lo what the hell?" tanya Iqbal riled up. He pulled his head out of the car glass.


"Middle of your car and get out."


Rama said in a firm tone, Iqbal finally relented and obeyed the wishes of his two friends. They were now sitting on the quiet side of the road, at first the three of them were silent. Then Rama opened the conversation.


"Lo has to accept the truth, Bal. Lea's a man's wife."


Iqbal was silent, he dropped his gaze into a corner.


"Gue was angry because he kept it from me."


"Have you ever?" This time Dani chimed in.


"No, right?" continued again.


Iqbal fell silent again, all this time even he did not have so much conversation with Lea. He really didn't know that a woman of Leah's age was married. With a man she thinks is better suited to be Lea's father.


Yes, despite the maximum handsome, the aura of maturity Daniel still can not be lied to. He is a typical mature man who should have a partner of a lifetime. Not with a smelly woman like Lea. At least that's what Iqbal had in mind.


He doesn't know that Daniel is a typical dream for girls who love to read novels online. He is the man that almost every woman in the world wants.


"Lo must put an end to your feelings for Lea. She can't cheat on her husband, Bal. Look at her husband's car, I don't know when people like us will be able to buy. It must have been very rich, in terms of looks we lost far." said Rama.


Iqbal did not answer a word, he still threw his gaze into a corner that presented nothingness. He is still in shock with all this. He hoped all this was just a dream.


He had wanted Lea, even from the first day they met. Iqbal had fallen in love several times, but the feeling was unlike anything he had ever felt for Lea.


***


"Le, where are you going this abis?" ask Nina. Adisty and Ariana are back home.


"Gue doesn't know, Nin. It feels like all places are the same, if the mind is again tangled.


"Yes, but maybe you'll come to my house. Because my husband and his family went out of town."


"Ntar deh, tomorrow yes." said Lea.


"Ok." answered Nina.
