Betrayed My Husband
Bribing Mami

(POV Adam)

I heard that Mami Meri, who is none other than Aqila's biological mother has returned to this country. I have to keep my divorce with Aqila a secret from her. Otherwise, Mami and Leon would be furious. Not to mention Leon who was famous for being so cruel behind his cold and gentle demeanor.

I don't want to get into trouble with my Mami-in-law's boyfriend. Maybe now more precisely my ex-in-law.

This morning I went to Mami's apartment, but there was no answer after I repeatedly rang the bell. Then I decided to call Mami. Maybe, he's out or he's in a hotel with Leon.

After waiting for a while, the phone call from me was picked up by Mami. "Morning, Mommy. How are you this morning? Is it true that Mami has returned to Indonesia?" my question is as friendly and reasonable as my usual attitude.

"Mommy's not feeling well, Dam. But Aqila took Mami for treatment last night. And now Mami lives with her because she asked to take care of Mami" Mami replied in a weak voice, but I can still hear and understand.

"Mommy's at Aqila's?" I just can't believe it.

"Yes, why are you so surprised? Has Aqila not told you about this yet? Sorry, Dam. Mami didn't mean to be a burden to you both" she said without warning.

"No, Mi. Don't say it like that. My mom was never a burden to me. Actually, Aqila and I have been having a cold war for a few days. Biases, Mi. Aqila was extremely possessive and jealous. But I'm happy, it's a sign he still loves me very much. Right, Mi." asked me intentionally, for Mami to be on my side this time.

"really. The house does not always run smoothly. As long as you can solve the problem with a calm heart and a cool head, do not be rash to make a decision. The quarrel was common and natural."

"Yes, Mi. I also did not take Aqila's anger seriously. I always try to give in as much as I can, to make Aqila happy."

"Thank you, Dam. You have been patient with Aqila all this time. Mami and Leon trust you very much to take good care of Aqila."

"Don't talk like that, Mi. It's my duty as her husband."

"Then, you didn't sleep at home?"

My mother's question confused me about what to answer. Then I had a plan in my brain to get back inside the house.

"I was out of town yesterday, Mi. Then, when you go home all the home security systems have been replaced by Aqila. So I can't get in. I stayed at the hotel last night. I thought, Aqila is still angry and reluctant to meet me at this time" I said on the pretext that I deliberately manipulated for Mami to believe me.

"Yes God. It's so sorry my daughter-in-law. Go home, Mommy will open the door for you later. Aqila has already gone to the Boutique. But Mami doesn't know what time she'll be back. Even so, you are calm. She won't be mad if you're back here, because Mami told you to go home."

Of course Mami's words made me excited and smiled brightly. This is what I expected. It was easy to fool Mami.

"Good, Mi. I'm going home now. Later if it's in front of the gate, I'll call Mami" I replied in high spirits.

After I turned off the phone, I immediately prepared to go to Aqila's house. I've been looking for a gap to get into that house. It was very interesting that I broke into the vault in our main room first and took at least one securities that I could make capital for business after I turned the name of course.

"Mas, it's neat this early in the morning where are you going?" astri asked who emerged from the kitchen while I was combing my hair.

"Wish the project this time liquid yes, dear. I want to meet a client from London. He asked to be picked up at the airport. I have to go now." I said again lying to Astri.

I don't know since when, the habit of lying has now been attached to me. Maybe since I lied to Aqila about my marriage to Astri first. It seems true people say. Once you lie, it becomes a habit and it is hard to leave.

"Amen. I'm sure I wish you all the best for your work, ma'am. But don't fuck around out there!"

"Yes, you calm down. There will be you as our prospective child who is waiting for Mas to come home, it is impossible Mas various out there,"

"Yes, I believe the same. So I didn't have breakfast first? Well, the fried noodles are ready for me to make,"

"No chance, honey. Mas rush. You eat by yourself. Uh, both dong same grandpa baby in the belly."

A disappointed look on Astri's face. Since I was pregnant, I had a hard time guessing and understanding Astri's ever-changing mood in a matter of minutes.

I stroked her head gently, then kissed her forehead. Turning to her distended stomach, I also stroked and kissed the stomach gently.

"Honey, keep Mami at home. Accompany Mami for breakfast, because Papi has an important job now. Pinter's son, understands Papi's cooperation. It's for you and Mami too the money" I said to the stomach. It may seem silly to me that is my attitude.

But, I managed to make Astri draw her lip line again forming a smile. I feel so relieved at this moment in time.

"Yes, be careful, yeah. Don't go home at night. If I call, there is no more reason. We have to go home soon!" he said it was full of emphasis on me.

Having no other choice, right now I can only influence the thoughts of my in-laws.

So I paid no heed to the original agreement with Aqila and Astri. I can't forget Aqila even though I've managed to d*sah deliciously on Astri's body or behind her lately.

"Yes-yes. Go on the road first. Don't forget to lock all the doors and don't invite anyone in!" my word is no less firm than Astri's words earlier.

After finishing the drama this morning, I deliberately went to use a car that I have rarely used lately.

When I got to the gate, I called Mami and the fence opened wide. I entered casually and searched for Mami's whereabouts.

Then, I saw Mami in one of the ground floor rooms.

"I'm finally in this house again" I muttered with a happy heart.
