ASA IS FADING
CHAPTERS 17. Finding Out the Facts

"Have you come home?" Naya asked as soon as she came out of the bathroom wearing a towel. Her hands were busy wrapping around a small towel to wrap her wet hair. He saw Sami leaning on the edge of the bed, staring at him without blinking. That look made Naya smile. For a few days she had not seen her husband's face.

"Tumben mas at this hour has come home. From the office?" Ask Naya.

The question made Sami finally make a sound. "Why? You're not happy that I'm home? You don't like it when I come home?"

"What the hell is that talking? Suddenly what a jutek?" Naya frowned in surprise at the husband's answer. Why did Sami suddenly become cold like this? Usually he's never that cute? Naya.

"Where's kiara? I didn't see it at all." Sami asked back while folding his hands on his chest. He was excited enough to go home to see his little angel, but Sami did not see his little girl. Sami's mood dropped dramatically. Plus a phone call from an unknown man who just called his wife. That was quite disturbing to his mind at this moment. There was a big question mark in the man's mind. What is Naya's relationship with the stranger??

"Naya again went to the piano lessons mas sama si mbak. After that they might go play for a while on the playground." Naya answered calmly as she undressed her towel. He changed his clothes with a thin sleeveless dress after applying hand body lotion to the rest of the body. The orchid fragrance from the lotion he was wearing immediately went into the sense of smell. Making Sami look at his wife with a view that is difficult to interpret.

"Why don't you accompany her Nay? You are her mother. Why did you let her go with the baby sitter? Why are you at home? Are you not having any activities?" Sami throws the core question at the wife. He had wanted to question that for a long time but always kept it down. During this time he was too focused on the things that are not important. He was also busy with work in the office. Wanting it to feel like he was spending more time for his daughter but what a power, he was also helpless.

Now is the right time for him to talk about his household problems that are getting complicated. It starts with Kiara's business. The little girl who made Sami's days more pleasant when the child was born but on the other hand made her world turn gray with Naya at the same time. I don't know what happened, actually Sami also still doesn't understand.

"Bag.." Naya sighed softly.

"What are you busy with? Don't you think Kiara needs you as her mother. You're gonna let him stay all day with the nanny." Sami said with a facial mimic that had started flat. Making Naya mengelos.

"I also have activities outside the same mas my friends. What's the harm in him going with the mbak? You also hired the baby sitter itself to help me take care of Kiara from the baby. He also prefers to play with the mbak." Naya gave a rebuttal. He also does not want to be blamed by Sami. How could he be babysitting that kid all day? He also has other activities that are more fun for him to enjoy. What's the point of a baby sitter then??

"So you mean, Kiara would rather spend time with that nanny than with you as her mother, you mean Nay?" Sami makes clear the meaning of Naya's sentence. That's the conclusion he can capture from the statement of the woman who has been his wife for approximately a decade. Why is Naya thinking so much? With her leisure she lets Kiara spend more time with the nanny than with her as the woman who has given birth to the child.

"Mas don't overdo it like dong. Kan Kiara is used to being with the mbak. Why is this sentiment? It's weird." Said Naya with a little bit of heart while applying a little lip balm on her sexy lips. Spraying a small amount of perfume on the elbow wrist and skin on the back of the ear. His half-wet hair he combed with his fingers.

"From now on you reduce activities that are not important you can not? You better take care of Kiara than just a vague blur on the outside." Tukas Sami's. The sentence that had just been thrown away made Naya turn to her husband directly.

"What do you mean? Is it now that I'm starting to limit my activities?" 

"Why not? All this time I've been letting you be free to do anything. I am also rarely home. You are free from Naya. It's time to be a mother to our child. Kiara is more important than all your business outside." Tukas Sami at length. The sentence he finally uttered with a tone that sounded non-playful. The coldness of Sami's face when saying that makes Naya so dejected to return to raise objections. He wanted to express his protest but his lips felt faint. The man's face was now so cold and flat. The eagle's eyes even stared at Naya without blinking. Naya is unable to dive into Sami's current mind base.

"Bag.."

"Where are you going?" Naya tries to intercept Sami's move. She grabbed her husband's arm while trying to get out the door.

"I was coming home to see you with Kiara but none of our children are with you. So what else am I here for?" Tukas Sami's. He tried to remove the wife's hand from her arm.

"Mas.kamu just got home. Wait Kiara. He's also back from the piano lessons."

"Tomorrow. There's other business I have to do tonight." Sami removed the wife's soft hand from her arm. It passed from before Naya who was now staring at her sturdy back with a pushy look. Didn't expect Sami to ignore tonight. He had intended to give a warm hug to the man. I don't know what happened that made the man turn cold today.

Sami closed the car door with mixed feelings. His heart suddenly felt so troubled to recall the incoming phone that he got from the device of the wife. The words of the foreign man continued to ring in his ears. The man's tone kept teasing Sami. Who is that guy? What is his relationship with his wife? Sami was curious. He then pulled out his phone from behind the light blue vest he was wearing. Swiping the thin object's flat screen. He dialed a number he used to call for urgent and emergency matters.

"Yes boss."

"Please find out who owns the number for me as soon as possible, Ki. I just screenshotted your number."

"Is this so urgent, boss?"

"Yes. The details will be explained tomorrow at the office." Tukas Sami to the assistant.

"Okay boss."

The call then ended. Sami breathed a rude sigh staring back at the mobile number of the foreign man he had already held. Soon he will find out who that man is. He'll know what the man has to do with his wife, Naya.

What's gonna happen next. What facts will Sami get??
