Eve for Adam (Arogant CEO's Deposit)
HUA: Rigid
With the care and love of her father and mother, Eve lived a steep life. Lucky during her pregnancy, the child in the womb Eve never had problems, never made it difficult. He did not crave, even he could eat well.
Every night Eve would take her son to talk, she did not know whether the child was a man or a woman who must be on one side in her heart there were times when she was grateful to have the child she was carrying, his love with Adam.
Even if she could not have the man, at least part of Adam was with her and that was enough for Eve to remember the man in her life.
Ms. Marni always painstakingly gives herbal medicine and also healthy food for Eve to consume.
With the money still left in her savings, Hawa developed her mother's shop, equipped with cold drinks and opened a hawker shop in the form of a small minimarket.
The success of the Eve family in terms of economic upswing, made some people jealous of them, began to look for the truth about the situation of Eve.
Eve's stomach is not yet large but it is clear that people can suspect that she is currently pregnant, from the way she walks and also her body shape.
"Sorry Miss Marni, Eve is pregnant?" asked Munaroh who was having breakfast with Maimunah in their shop.
Instantly, the hand of Ms. Marni who was scooping noodles into the plate stopped, shaking and her heart also pounded. He took a breath twice, then exhaled violently, then gave an answer to the two women who were the culprits of the gossip in the village.
"True Ma'am, Eve is pregnant. It's been coming in 4 months" he replied flatly, trying to develop his fake smile.
"So really our guess, but after Eve came home from the city, we never saw a man come to visit her, where is her husband, Mom?" search them.
"His husband was a sailor, Eve also returned to the village because she did not want to live alone in Jakarta. Two days ago her husband came, but only for a short time, only one day to go sailing. Because he comes home twice a year, so he leaves Eve to us" said Ms. Marni as agreed by him and Mr. Tarjo. They had arranged the answer they would give to the villagers who asked about Eve's husband.
Actually Eve did not agree, she did not want to lie about her son. He did not care what the people in the village thought, but thought about the feelings of his parents and also to maintain self-esteem and also the dignity of the family forced Eve to agree.
"Wah, it means daughter-in-law of the great mother dong," asked Munaroh who became his last sentence. He did not get the news that he could develop and share with the people in the village, although in his heart, he still did not believe Bu Marni's answer.
The bigger Eve's belly, the more people know. The young men who usually hang out at her mother's stall first thing Sunday night are now getting less and less because they know that Eve is not alone anymore even now the woman is pregnant.
Once two months, Hawa will be accompanied by her mother to check into the Bu Tini clinic. According to Bu Tini, the baby that Eve conceived was currently male, healthy and also had a perfect physique, nothing to worry about, and two months from the last examination, he said, it is predicted to be the day of the baby's birth.
Towards the time of delivery, Eve's feelings were not good. She misses Adam so much and hopes that the man will be able to accompany her during childbirth later, even though again it is just hope.
The pendant that the man had given when he had just returned from abroad was still hanging on Eve's neck, the only thing he brought from all of Adam's gifts was because that night Adam explained that he chose it specifically for Eve.
Every time he misses the man, he will hold the locket and bring Adam into his dreams and fantasies.
***
While the person missed by Eve is currently spending time with Tiger, sitting in one corner of the bar in Jakarta. The time had already shown at 01:00 am but he was still reluctant to go home. He had just had a fight with his mother who did not accept because Adam was not paying attention to Sarah.
"Seven months you've been married, but until now there's been no sign of pregnancy on Sarah, even I just found out that you didn't touch your wife at all! What's on your mind? You want to humiliate Mahesa's mother and family?" attack Bu Dewi with anger, entered his study and found his son who was struggling with a glass filled with alcoholic beverages.
"Here you are, please, do not interfere in our household affairs. My mother's will has been fulfilled by marrying Sarah, and I have done so, but in order to fulfill my duty, sorry, no one can force me!" he said as he stood up, and left.
Adam's days have always been surrounded by dark clouds since Eve's departure. He considers himself a zombie, living his days without passion, dark and very boring.
Almost every night in the first month of their marriage Sarah questioned her status as a wife whom Adam had not touched.
The following days, not getting an answer from the man, Sarah stopped questioning her meaning and accepted her condition. Sarah will spend time with friends and also visit her parents.
In front of people they deserve a married couple who get along and are also happy. However, in reality while they are inside the room, they are two strangers caught in a bond called marriage.
"Sir, we should go home at dawn" said Tiger who still faithfully accompanied Adam, killing himself with a drink. His life was broken, desperate. He hated Eve for her betrayal and missed her half-dead. The love that was lodged in her heart for Eve never died, even more and more.
Adam even lowered his pride by going to Mita in Leroi, asking the girl where Eve lived so that she could search there. She was sure Eve would return to her village just as the woman had planned when their contract would expire.
But Mita, who knew about Eve's departure, refused to tell her whereabouts of her best friend.
"I don't know sir. I am friends with Eve but I do not know where her hometown is and where her home is" Mita replied firmly. He cursed the man for abandoning him and hurting his best friend's feelings.
