Ballad First Wife
Raul Bet

"Bang, I remind you once again. Don't fuck around!" anita sternly while looking at Raul.

Raul only flashed a mysterious smile. His gaze remained straight to the path that was in front of him.

"Why are you good friends with the person who caused your suffering?" raul asked without seeing Anita.

"Sister Fira?"

Raul answered with a smirk of tips on the tip of his lips.

"Originally Bang Raul knew yes, Brother Fira was a good man. I am grateful to know him. Besides, it's not her fault that Alan loves her. They've been friends for a long time." Anita explained briefly.

"Cih, okay. If she's a good woman, she won't take people's husbands." - cynical Raul.

Bugs.

Anita hits Raul's arm. "If Bang Raul doesn't know the story, don't accuse anything!"

"You are blinded by his false kindness, Nit." - Raul said.

"Bang Raul is blinded by hatred. Bang Raul hates Brother Alan. So finally Bang Raul followed to hate Kak Fira also because according to Bang Raul all of Kak Alan's attitude was caused by Kak Fira."

"The truth is that, right?" Raul remains stupefied by his judgment of Fira.

Anita took a deep and deep breath. He looked at Raul who was focusing on driving.

"Bang, my brother's judgment is wrong. So wrong. I'm sure that if Bang Raul knew Kak Fira, Bang Raul wouldn't have acted like me. Bang Raul knows I don't, I love Brother Fira very much."

"So you think if I knew that woman, I would love her too. Nonsense." Raul's lips turned on an understatement smile.

"Eh.be careful with your mouth. Can't talk to yourself just find out." Nita pointed her index finger.

"Sad. Don't call me Raul if you bend your knees to that woman." Raul was still being arrogant and dismissive.

"Ck. Snippy. I swear to God I just found out the taste."

Raul did not respond to Anita's comments

They were silent for a while until Anita's soft laughter broke the silence.

Raul glanced at Anita, "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing. I was just thinking of a name that would fit Bang Raul." Anita laughed again after she finished talking.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean? Wasn't Bang Raul saying, if Bang Raul bends his knees with Kak Fira, then I can't call my brother by the name of Raul. So I started looking for a name that would fit my brother." Anita giggles amusedly.

"Dream it." snorted Raul who was greeted by Anita's crisp laughter.

"Laughter just keep on." Raul is upset that Anita is singing to him.

"Raulian. Ruli.ayo bang choose the one you like."

"Shut up!" snapped Raul

Anita is silent. It even hardened his laugh.

"good. We bet. You may call me as you please if I bend my knees or charm the woman." challenge Raul who is upset at feeling underestimated by Anita.

"He's got a bang, his name's Fira."

"It doesn't matter."

"Yet. Not no." seduced Anita.

"Shut your mouth!"

Raul's getting pissed. His hatred and curiosity for Fira grew.

...****************...

"Drink mas!" Fira offered a glass of water to Salman who was busy in his study.

"Thank you dear." Salman received it and with three gulps he drained the water.

"Not really. Just some files. Why?" Salman looked at Fira.

Fira. "It's nothing." she replied softly.

"Hey, why is your face blushing ha? What was? Just say!" Salman stroked Fira's cheek.

Fira held Salman's hand.

"It's nothing. Just finish the job first. I'll accompany you here."

"There really is nothing?"

Fira nodded.

Salman stroked Fira's head gently and continued his work.

Fira looked at her husband's admiration.

Salman is very charming if you are focused like this. I am lucky as his wife.

Ten minutes had passed, but there was no sign Salman would end his work.

"Mas, is it still a long time?" ask Fira.

"Hm..a little while longer." replied Salman short

Fira hush. He looked at Salman. The longer she felt her husband was getting more seductive.

Fira started to get nervous. He was not calm in his sitting. Many times Fira changed her sitting position.

Salman is unaware of Fira's unease at being too focused on her work.

"Mas!" call Fira at last.

"Hm."

"Mas, why work so hard anyway?"

Fira shifted her seat. He sat at the table near Salman's laptop.

Salman smiled at his wife's question.

"Darling, I did it for us. Soon there will be a new member in our little family. So I'm preparing everything from now on." Salman explained as his hand stroked Fira's distended stomach.

Fira held Salman's hand as Salman was about to withdraw it.

"But the one inside doesn't need that yet." murmured Fira softly. His hand squeezed gently into Salman's hand.

Salman looked at Fira waiting for what else Fira would say.

Fira also looked at Salman with warm and friendly eyes.

"Then what does he need now" whispered the friendly Salman.

Fira pursed her lips spoiled.She did not answer Salman's question. Fira was upset that Salman was insensitive to the signals he gave.

"Know ah." Fira releases Salman's hand. He moved from his seat. Just a few steps away, Salman stopped Fira's steps by hugging her from behind.

"I'm sorry! Don't be so upset! Sorry if you feel neglected because of my work." Says Salman while holding his head on Fira's shoulder.

"I'm not upset nor do I feel ignored. It's just that right now I.mm.our child is missing you." said Fira softly and doubtfully. Face reddened.

Salman smiled faintly.

Hup

Salman lifts Fira's body into his trunk.

"Then let's eliminate our child's longing."

Fira smiled shyly. He hid his face into Salman's chest.
