“Hayuk down.”, Arya said to Dinda as she opened the car door for him.
“Why did Arya bring me here? We better just go home.”, replied Dinda.
“We talk inside.”, Arya orders.
“...”, Dinda still hasn't budged from her seat.
“You heard my orders, right? We talk in.”, said Arya.
Dinda looked towards Arya for a bit and shuddered in horror. He finally got out of the car and followed the man.
They were already in the parking lot of Arya's apartment, the place Dinda visited the other day.
If it counts - count, he's been to this apartment twice. First, just in the parking lot before marriage. And secondly when Mr. Cecep took the box that had no idea what it was.
Once on the apartment floor, Arya pulls Dinda in because the girl is still hesitant. Dinda is lazy to enter this apartment because there are certainly a lot of items - items that remind Dinda of the woman again. Sarah, Aryan's ex-wife.
“What does Mr Arya mean to bring me here?”, Dinda took off Arya's hand. He still doesn't want to come in.
“We talk inside.”, Arya's response is firm.
“What's the difference between talking here and inside?”, Dinda still denies.
“You want someone to report a commotion here? You want to be embarrassed? That's why we talk inside. I don't want this problem to drag on.”, Arya replied.
“That problem is from Mr. Arya, not me. Mr Arya want me to end this marriage by entering this apartment? Seeing the photo of ex-wife Arya mas still neatly displayed in the room?”, Dinda half yelled.
Arya did not answer and pulled Dinda's arm in. Dinda tried to take it off, but Arya's power was definitely more domineering.
Once inside, Dinda forcibly releases Arya's hand. Arya also let it go because they were already inside.
“Sign in.”, Aryan orders.
Dinda was a little surprised because the look of the apartment was different from the last time she was here. Previously, this apartment was brown with a wooden theme and dominated by brown and black. But now, the color white already dominates this apartment.
Not only the color, design and layout and even the items inside are also a lot of changes. Dinda no longer sees any couple stuff in this house. The smell is different too.
Previously, Dinda smelled a mixture of rose and mint in this apartment. But now, the predominance of fruit scents and a hint of sweet fragrance that Dinda did not recognize filled this room. Dinda went into the same apartment, but she seemed to be in a different dimension.
“Sini.”, Arya asks Dinda to sit on the living room sofa.
Dinda who is still surprised to see the apartment changes just follow Arya's orders.
“Now story, why this week you are being cold to me.”, Arya does not want to spin. He's straight to the point.
Dinda did not want to sit next to Arya. He chose to sit on the other sofa that was beside him.
“When did Mr Arya renovate this apartment?”, Instead of answering Arya's question, Dinda instead asked something else.
“We are on honeymoon. Now story. Why?”, said Arya.
“I saw Mr. Arya.”, said Dinda.
“Shortly, instead I've asked you to call me mas. Do I need to unbox you in this apartment?”
Dinda looked at Arya sharply. The look is not happy.
“Oke, it's up to you. Tonight you can call me anything.”
“Where was Pak Arya when I was on vacation with my friends?”, asked Dinda still with her sharp gaze.
“Outside. Didn't you whatsapp me then? Looks like I already reply.”, replied Arya.
“Where?”, Arya found it strange to be interrogated by Dinda who was much younger than her.
“You mean?”
“Jawab only my question, Mr Arya where was that night?”
“Iya, sir Arya where and why that night.”, Dinda's tears dripped and suddenly made Arya shocked.
“You cry?”, Arya moved from the sofa she was sitting on to the sofa that Dinda was sitting on. Arya will just hold Dinda's shoulder, but Arya brushes over.
“Jawab only my question. Where was Arya sir and what?”
“I…. I. um.. I was out hanging out for a while at cafe mall.”, Arya thought hard would answer what before getting out her sentence.
“If Mr. Arya still chooses to lie. I better go home.”, Dinda went from her seat to the apartment door.
“Din... I was out hanging out, indeed why? Lie, what?”
“If Mr. Arya wants to come back with that woman, please. Divorce me.”, said Dinda again brushed off the hand of Arya who was holding her arm.
“Din! You mean what the hell? You talked about ‘Cerai’? You?”, Arya lost her words and ruffled her hair.
“Pak Arya does not want to be honest with me. Before marriage and even after marriage, Mr. Arya wants me to break our strange relationship, right? Okay, I'm stupid to think that this is my way of returning my favor to mama Inggit. But I was wrong. I will actually destroy the feelings of Mr. Arya's family more deeply by accepting this matchmaking.”, said Dinda can no longer hold back her tears.
“You why the hell? I don't understand. Who asked you to get a divorce from me?”, asked Arya confused.
“That's what Mr. Arya wants. Mr. Arya no longer needs to hide - hide to meet the woman and sleep with her. After we get divorced, Mr. Arya can be as happy as sleeping with him.”, Kirana's voice shakes violently.
“Dinda, keep talking to you. I am your husband. What the hell are you talking about?”
“I was there when Mr. Arya came into the woman's room. Mr. Arya spent the night with him, right?”, Dinda can no longer stem his cries.
“Oh God's.. ”, Arya massages her forehead and shuffles - random her hair.
“You sit down first. I can explain.”, Arya was finally able to capture the big picture of Dinda's confession just now.
“You clear what? Want to explain if Mr Arya has slept with him and apologized? No need.”, Dinda intends to open the apartment door and get out. However, Arya had already withdrawn her hand.
“Sick...”, said Dinda whimpering.
Arya's hand pull was so strong that it made Dinda moan in pain.
Arya pulled Dinda back in her chair.
“I didn't sleep with him. There were not only me and my ex-wife, but also her date. So, everything on your mind is not true.”, Arya said firmly.
Arya forced Dinda to sit back on the sofa. Arya tiptoed under him to hold the girl.
“If it is true that way. Why would Arya lie? I asked Mr. Arya many times where it was, but Mr. Arya lied.”
“I'm afraid you misunderstood.”
“What's the difference?”
“Din, while in the Maldives, when we agreed to give each other time, I was sincere with that. I give time to you and you also give time to me to solve my problems with my ex-wife.”
“With how to sleep with him in the hotel?”
“Din. I don't sleep with him. How many times do I have to tell you. I didn't sleep with him. I don't sleep with anyone but my legal wife. After I got divorced from Sarah, I never slept with any woman. And when I married you also so.”, said Arya half yelling.
She was frustrated because Dinda kept accusing her of sleeping with Sarah.
Arya knew that whoever saw and heard this must have thought she was sleeping with Sarah. But, that's not how it happened and Arya is confused about how to explain it to Dinda.
Arya and Dinda were silent for a moment. They are drowning with their minds.
“It looks like we can't continue this conversation. Tomorrow we talk again. You must be tired. Rest first.”, Arya went to the door and locked it.
Then he went to the main room and intended to clean himself up and go to sleep.
Dinda was silent on the sofa crying. For her, this kind of matter was too complicated for her who was only 23 years old. Suddenly he missed home. She misses her mother and Arga, her younger brother.
She wanted to disappear from this place and cry all over - in her arms. He can't even tell his friend this. He didn't want to tell Inggit either.
