Betrayed My Husband
Big Secret

I try to be calm and not rash. I let Mami neutralize her mood and attitude. I'm sure Mami must be preparing the best answer for me.

Actually, I'm not sure that I have a sister. Because all this time, you never told me anything. And as I recall, Mami left home by herself. Without any other children he brought. Brother or sister who may be one blood with me.

I asked that too, just carelessly. Not very serious. Just because that young girl's name is the same as mine, doesn't mean she's my sister, does it?

"Aqila, what are you asking? How could you have a sister. You're an only child. You never had a sister, son!" mami's answer sounded very stiff and contrived.

Even when I said that, Mami did not dare to look at me. His eyes were busy looking at the screen of his phone and his fingers were seen sliding the screen carelessly as well.

"Mommy... I know, all this time I was the only child of Dad and Mami. How do you know, Mami married again and had a child," I chanted unconsciously.

Back look Mami's face turned red and sweat clearly seen pouring on his forehead. What is it with Mommy? Is it possible that I really have a sister who Mami could have kept her whereabouts a secret?

"Don't just talk to you, Qil! There are no sisters. Already, why do we even discuss this unimportant problem. If it's done, let's go home or go back to the boutique." take Mami while packing her phone and put it in the branded bag that was in her tote.

"It's okay, Mom. I'am just kidding. Enjoyable, okay?" reply to me by occasionally using that foreign language.

"Yes. I'm okay, Baby. Come on, let's go!" mami replied as she stood up from her seat.

I let Mami walk first to the outside of the restaurant. While I called the waiter and paid my order bill. After I finished the payment process, I walked in leisurely steps towards the place where my car was parked.

I vaguely saw Mami talking to someone who was dressed exactly like a delivery courier at this restaurant.

'Who is he? And what is Mami talking about with this courier resto? Do they know each other?' my mind is full of question marks.

I intend to eavesdrop on their conversation. Then walk stealthily to the car next to my car. It just so happened that this car was wearing black glass, so even if I was standing on the right side, it would not be visible to the person on the left side.

"Don't be stubborn anymore, Kay! Follow the words of Mommy. Don't make Mami feel more guilty about you." Mami's voice sounded slow but I could still hear.

"Sorry, Mom. My decision is still the same as before. I can live with my own sweat. I won't use a single dollar of money from you!" answer Mami's interlocutor firmly.

It was clear from her voice that she was a woman. And, it seemed like that voice was very similar to the voice of the girl who was delivering food to my boutique back then.

I brought my body closer to the back of the car. To hear their conversation clearly next.

"Until when, Kayla? How long will you live like this? Far from being decent, even having to quit school. The grandmother who took care of you since your baby died a week ago. Live well, son. Let Mami take care of you from now on. Mommy's gonna tell your sister about this."

"Where might your brother be like that. Mami is sure she will embrace and take good care of you. Aqila is a good person. She had even asked if she had a sister on Mami just now. Have you ever met her?"

"Sir Aqila asked about me? Is that true? What'd he say? L'm... I have met him once. From there I knew he was a really good man."

"Did he see your face?" mami asked with a bit of surprise.

"No. I covered my face with a hat and mask. But I glanced at his face silently. Without another question mark, I knew he was my brother. Our faces are very similar. And I'm sorry. Not because he has a face that looks like him. But because I have a face that's down from your genes" he said in a stressed tone.

It seems that girl hates Mami a lot. Is he really my sister? So really I have a sister? Is our father the same? How many secrets has Mami been hiding from me?

It turned out that this was the captive of my instinct who felt very close to the girl. Yeah, I know she's Kayla Khazanah. The girl who took my order to the boutique back then. Due to the heated debate earlier, Mami mentioned Kayla's name when calling her.

Tears just flow from my eyes. My cheeks were wet and my eyes felt soaked. However, the debate between the two men was not yet over. It was as if Mami had forgotten that I could have come at any time and caught her talking to the girl.

"Sorry, Mba. Here's a tissue, to wipe her tears. And sorry, can you move the crying place? Because I want to go out" said a man in a white suit and a silver pair of glasses perched on his nose.

Suddenly I became embarrassed and clumsy because I was crying and leaning on this stranger's car. My brain works fast and looks for excuses.

"Eh, your car is. Sorry, I thought my car. The type and color are the same!" I answered honestly after noticing that the type and color of this man's car was exactly the same as my car.

"really? What a coincidence." she replied with a faint smile.

Oh God. What a sweet smile this guy. Looks like he's a doctor. It is visible from a white suit and a telescope hanging spoiled around his neck.

I pulled out my car keys and set the alarm. Let this man believe that I'm not lying.

"That's my car next to your car, Doctor" I said with a smile and brandished the car remote I punched.

"Then, please move to your car. Because I have to leave now."

"Well, thank you for the knife and sorry for rendering it on your car."

"No problem, Mba" he answered and got into the car.

The car retreated and immediately drove away from the parking lot. Meanwhile, from where I stood I saw Mami and Kayla looking at me with anxious faces and misbehavior.
