Heavy rain fell as soon as Arya and Dinda reached her apartment. Dinda was in the bathroom while Arya was busy picking up some cutlery in the kitchen. He hasn't eaten anything after landing.
On the way to the apartment, he bought a burger and cola that became his favorite food at once which he avoided to maintain his posture. But today is an exception.
There was also a small portion for Dinda according to her request. He had eaten a big meal earlier but Dinda knew for sure he would be hungry again once he got to the apartment.
“We eat first, just discussed our problems.”, said Arya.
He did not want to call it a debate, a dispute, let alone a fight. Discussion is a word that is suitable to solve the problem of husband and wife. Food was a great start so they could think of a problem with a cold head.
Dinda who was just standing in front of the bedroom door finally walked over and approached Arya. The man arranged the food they bought at the front living room table of the TV in the middle.
Dinda who was already wearing her evening dress with her hair neatly unravelled sat in front of Arya.
“Eat first.”, said Arya poured water into a glass for Dinda because during pregnancy the girl will not be allowed to drink kola.
Arya starts the first bite for the burger that is already in front of her. He ate so well because he was starving. Dinda saw him as pity. He knew Arya must be very busy and tired of her work.
Dinda also bites her burger after a few minutes of seeing Arya. It didn't take long, all the food on the table managed to brush them both.
“You are still angry?”, Arya started her first sentence with a question after a long time of silence without a word.
“Hm. Mas Arya was so busy that I could count how many hours a day I could see Arya. Even to check the routine mas Arya can not keep the promise. I know Arya's busy. But, am I not included in the priority list of Arya mas?”, said Dinda in a sad tone.
“....”, no reply from Arya.
He knew there was no reason that could satisfy Dinda at this moment.
“Mas Arya has promised to accompany me to check the pregnancy. But Arya did not fulfill that promise. Until Arya mas can fulfill the promise, I better not sleep one bed first with Arya.” mas, said Dinda confidently.
“Eh? What does pregnancy check have to do with one bed? Where do you sleep?”
“Solar to Arya. I can sleep anywhere. In the apartment, we can be free without being caught by papa's mom, so I can sleep in the other room. While at home, if Mas Arya sleeps in a mattress, I will sleep on the sofa.”, replied Dinda.
“But why should sleep apart, we only meet rarely continue now even do not sleep one bed. What's the story, Din?”
“From me keep waiting for Arya mas to come home. I better get used to it without any Aryan mas beside me because after all Arya also married Arya mas job.”
“Hah..”, Arya sighed.
“You're right, Din. And until when will it continue? One day?”, asked Arya.
“No, until Arya mas can accompany me to check the pregnancy. Consider it my wishlist. Until Arya can fulfill it, we sleep apart. Maybe that way Arya mas can rethink which is actually Arya's wife, job or me.”, said Dinda steady.
“Ya already, tomorrow we check. Uh no - no. Now we check, we go to dr's apartment. Rima now. Yuk.”, said Arya panicked.
She was already impatient to go home even willing to pick up Dinda as soon as she arrived. Now you have to sleep separately? What kind of punishment is this, he thought.
“This month I checked a few days ago.”, said Dinda.
“Keep when check again?”
“Front month?”
“Hah? You tell me to wait until Sunday, ah not next month? Hah... now, indeed you can sleep alone without me?”, Arya asked back confidently.
“Can.”, replied Dinda steady.
“Eh? Sure you?”, asked Arya a little surprised by Dinda's answer.
“Can. It's better that way. I always sleep first without Arya mas because Arya mas has not come home. When I woke up, I also slept alone because Arya was awake and ready to go to the office. What is the difference with sleeping alone.”, said Dinda.
“Din, don't do it dong. You.. you have a lot of heart.”, said Arya with a panicked face.
“Mas Arya is also tega. I double-checked the pregnancy myself while the other one brought her husband. Mas Arya certainly does not know how it feels, right?”, said Dinda.
“But, okay. Next month I promise. Meeting or whatever it is I'll cancel. But now we sleep together, yes.”
“Gak. Let's see next month. Yes already. Thanks food. I slept first.”, said Dinda saying goodbye to sleep very politely as a form of protest with Arya.
This time, Dinda did not enter the main room, but to the other room.
“Din, Din, Dinda.. You sleep in the main room. I slept on the sofa.”, Arya said with a heavy heart.
Upon hearing Arya's words, Dinda turned to the main room without even glancing at Arya.
“Sayang.”, call Arya again.
Dinda who had almost reached the door of the room stopped and turned her head.
“You are serious?”, asked Arya.
“Hm.”
“What if you wait next month. Next month, I will not keep my promise. Just this strange punishment you did.”, said Arya.
“Mas Arya already plans to not keep promises again next month?”
“Not so. It's too arrived - arrived. Where can.”
“Then, Arya mas wait and keep the Aryan mas promise next month.”, said Dinda before finally closing the room door.
“Hah.. “, Arya scrambles - random hair.
“This is obviously the punishment of his name.”, said Arya frustrated.
The day before.
“Why are you, Din? Any problem? Yesterday when you took the road I was with mas Reza. So not focused. What's the problem?”, asked Bianca over the phone.
“Engga. Nothing - apa”, replied Dinda briefly.
“What's okay - what. Your voice sounds so lethargic. Do not - do not mas Arya, yes?”, Bianca's guess directly hit the target.
“Today Aryan mas is very busy. When I asked him, he didn't even notice. Now he's on a business trip out of town. I was wrong, yes if for example ask for a little time just the same Arya mas. She couldn't even accompany me to check for pregnancy in the hospital. Don't don't Arya don't want to be with me anymore because I'm pregnant?”, asked Dinda lethargic.
When Bianca called, she had just finished her pregnancy check in the hospital. Her mental condition is very sensitive because she sees everyone accompanied by her husband while she is not.
“Hah? The true you. Heh, Mas Arya. Din, I have an idea. What if you give me punishment only Arya.”
“Punishment? What penalty? Who can give punishment to Arya.”
“You are his wife. The man cold three-door refrigerator cake like Aryan mas it should be taught a lesson. Gini aja, you refuse to sleep one bed with Arya mas. Let's see how it reacts.”, Bianca proposes.
“Hah? Separate the bed do you mean? Ah no - no. Not split the bed only I rarely met him, how about splitting the bed. Later if he turns into cheating how?”, reply Dinda worried.
“Say Arya is not the type of man who cheats. Let's just take a look. I am sure, a day he gamau.”, said Bianca while giggling.
“I'm not that confident, Bi.”
“Shuttt.. trust me. At least until she wants to accompany you to check the pregnancy. You can also check the loyalty of Aryan mas in this way.”
And that's where this idea came from
*******
“Sis, which team has a big project? You please love me the list of projects that are being handled by each team, maximum before lunch.”, said Arya once in the office.
“Hm?”, Siska looks confused.
“Already, do not use confused everything. You just ask each manager, whatever by phone or ask directly. I want the list to be available at my table before lunch.
“Ba-good Mr. Arya.”, Siska replied loudly.
‘Defend.. Why else Mr. Arya.’, thought Siska in heart.
Without thinking long, Siska immediately did the task of Arya, rather than she had to be complicated and dizzy, it was better for her to give what her boss wanted.
It is not wrong Arya chose a secretary because in just 2 hours, Siska managed to collect the list that Arya wanted, complete with projections and timeline.
“Oke, you're scheduled to meet with teams 2 and 3 on Tuesday, have them prepare documents A, B, and C. You scheduled a meeting with teams 9 and 10 on Thursday, I asked for 3 hours of meeting, they also prepared all the necessary documents. For a team of 8 who have clients abroad, I want them to meet with me tomorrow afternoon. The rest, send an email to send their progress project report to me no later than the day.”, as soon as Arya reads the list given by Siska, she immediately arranges the schedule quickly.
‘Hah. I can - I'm crazy. I'm sure, two or three days, Dinda will change her mind. I also have to be able to optimize the work to be completed on-time.’, Arya said in her heart.
Meanwhile in another room of the DD division, Dika was sitting while looking towards the outside window. He was thinking about what he saw yesterday.
In the office parking lot after the meal - the meal is finished.
“Why is Mr Dika, something to look for?”, asked Erick when he saw Dika was busy looking for something.
“Oh.. pouch I usually carry - bring none. Inside are several important cards and keys. What's left in the restaurant, huh? It seems like I brought it, but I am also not sure.”, said Dika.
“You want me to accompany you to check into the restaurant, Sir?”, said Erick offers.
“No need, you go on. I can go back there myself. From there, straight home. Yes already, thanks for today, yes.”
“Oh, okay good sir. Hopefully it is true in the restaurant, yes Mr.”, said Erick.
Dika got back in the car and drove him out of the parking lot. The goal was the restaurant. Luckily the red light and traffic jams sided with him so that it didn't take long, he could get to the restaurant.
The restaurant is a little bit inward. Dika was hunting so he chose to park his car across from the restaurant. Next, he walked. When he was at the gate, he saw the figure of a man he knew.
‘Arya? Why is he here? Isn't he out of town. Is he home?’, asked Dika.
Just as Dika was about to step forward to just greet Arya, she saw Dinda coming down from the stairs of the restaurant and walking towards Arya. Then, Arya naturally grabbed Dinda by the waist and gave her a kiss on her neck.
Dinda did not refuse. Their interactions look very natural like people who have been in a long relationship.
‘Oh? Did I not see wrong?’, Dika again blinked his eyes to check what he saw in front.
It was like they were talking about something. Not infrequently Dika saw Arya put her hands on the shoulders, cheeks, and waist of the girl. Dinda was also not awkward to accept the treatment. Even he also looks not hesitant to put his hand on Arya's chest.
He sees Dinda hitting Arya slowly, the interaction of the two is very close. Later, Arya embraces Dinda's waist towards the car park. As the second car came out of the parking lot, Dika hid himself near the security guard post.
“Oh? Didn't Dinda say she was waiting for an online motorcycle? Why would he go home with Arya? On this late night? Wait a minute, didn't Sarah Arya say she was married again? Ah.. What time did Sarah say her name was Dinda? Because drunk I don't remember it too much.”, Dika keeps asking questions while staring blankly at the streets.
He looked up someone's number on his phone and contacted him immediately.
“Halo, Sarah?”, Dika said as soon as the person she called picked her up.
“Halo. Wh why? You already miss me after leaving me at the restaurant?”, asked Sarah immediately. He was still angry that Dika had left him just like that.
“Arya, you once mentioned the name of his new wife. What's his name?”, asked Dika.
“Hm? Why did you suddenly ask about Arya?”, asked Sarah in wonder.
“No. Just curious. What's his name?”, asked Dika again.
“Dinda. You why the hell arrived - suddenly asked random things like this.”, replied Sarah.
“Hm.. it's okay - what. Yes, when - when I treat you pointblank.”, said Dika.
Not only in hotels, sometimes they also often do activities such as sports and indoor games together to relieve stress.
“Heh. tennis only. I haven't played tennis in a long time.” Sarah replied.
“Alright then.”, Dika said before hanging up the phone.
“Heh.. It turns out that his wife is in the same company and an intern? Lucky for Arya. Apart from Sarah, she gets a young and innocent girl like Dinda. What did he do in his previous life until he was able to get such an innocent and kind girl. Deserve Sarah uring - uringan.”, said Dika in her room.
“Attractive ex-husband, Sarah. Not only his career and personality, his married life also runs very impressive. Basic, lucky man.”, continued Dika when comparing his life with Arya.
“Sarah doesn't want Arya back. He just can't accept that Arya is living a good life - it's fine even better without her. Fucking women! He really didn't want a bag. But once there was another woman who wanted to buy the bag, she instantly like a madman wanted to have it.”
“It tastes better when It’s taken.”, continued Dika.
