HIDDEN WIFE
A betrayal!!

That night it rained heavily with a storm. A flash of light from the sky struck accompanied by the thunderous roar of lightning that shook the Earth.

Lula stared at the situation outside through the window glass, since he wanted to go home, but was undone given the bad weather. Suddenly the lights went out followed by the sound of thunder. 

“Aaaa!” lula screeches to cover both ears with the palm of the hand. He crouched down on the side of a storefront closet crying. The girl was very afraid of the dark.  

“Why you?” The figure of a hand patted Lula's shoulder which made the girl shorten. He reflexively closes his nose with a finger when the smell of alcohol strikes. 

“Ba-Father drunk huh?” lula asked realizing Dirga's heavy voice. 

“No, I only drink a little.” Dirga massaged his temple which felt pulsating. This is the first time he touched the illicit drink to forget his household problems.

He tried to stand up, but almost fell down. Lucky Lula held his hand.

“You can help me inside. My head is dizzy.” 

“Ba-good, Sir.” 

Lula finally helps Dirga back into Alika's private room. A room that is deliberately made to rest when feeling tired. During work, Lula first set foot in the room. Because Alika does not allow just anyone to enter her private room.

"Sit there, sir!" Lula helps Dirga sit on the edge of the bed. He was about to leave her and come out, but Dirga pulled her hand down into his lap. 

The deg! 

Lula's heart felt like it was going to come out of her chest cavity when their gazes met each other. Dirga's eyes seemed to hypnotize him.

The man's hand stretched out stroked Lula's face and that second also buried a kiss on her lips. Lula's eyes widened in surprise. 

“Ja-don't, Sir!” peekik Lula tried to take off the link. But Dirga did not care. He hugged Lula tightly, then threw her into bed. 

"You're outrageous, Alika!" dirga's murmur made Lula's eyes bulge. He crawled over the little girl's body.

“Do not, Sir! Please no! I'm not Miss Alika, Sir!” Lula tried to rebel, but his strength lost far from Dirga even though the man was drunk. 

The rush of rain and lightning strikes as a witness to the fateful night.

Slowly the rain began to subside leaving drizzle. But it cannot remove the gripping silence. The cold weather also crept.

Inside a room, there were only heartbreaking sobs that filled every corner of the room. 

Lula Mariana, a 22-year-old orphan girl, never thought the night would be upon her. Since her mother died a few months ago, she has been living alone renting a room.  Maybe Lula is regretting what happened tonight. Dirga who was drunk had unknowingly taken away her chastity.

“I'm sorry, I didn't accidentally,” said Dirga full of regrets with drunken remains. He condemns his depraved deeds in the heart. “I'll compensate you whatever it is.” 

Lula wiped away the tears with a white blanket wrapped around her body. Glanced at their clothes that were still lying on the floor.

Dirga massaged his pulsating head. “Then what kind of liability do you want from me? Other than money, what can I give you? I can't marry you because I'm married. I love Alika very much. I can't possibly betray her by remarrying.” 

Lula's feelings are getting crushed. If he was innocent and ensnared by the law, he would have killed Dirga by then. 

“Lula ... I know that no matter how much money I make will be unable to restore your sanctity. For that I apologize. But that's all I can give you.” 

“I don't need money Mr.”

With tears in her eyes, Lula rolled up the blanket to the neckline, then got out of bed. Grab the clothes that are lying on the floor, then go into the bathroom. Dirga was drowning in a sea of guilt. 

"How's this. If Alika finds out, she'll be disappointed and won't forgive me?" dirga Mummings.

"I'm sorry, Alika."

The fiery dim atmosphere behind the silence of the night, promises false illusions for its connoisseurs. His reflection whispered a slip of sin in the aura and aroma of alcohol. From a chair look some beautiful women in skimpy clothes, presenting an open chest and a seductive fluffy pa*ha. Not infrequently they throw away their shame for a cheap heavenly desire.

"You're getting drunk, Al!" said a woman who tried to warn her friend, unaware that she was half drunk.

"What if I'm drunk, Yeni? Here we are free!" return it while pouring the drink into a glass.

Alika arrived in Bali a few hours ago. He was immediately greeted by his friends, a group of high-class women who like to party and waste money and leave for a nightclub.

"Anyways, what are you doing to escape?"

"I said I wanted to attend the Wedding Expo and she believed it" Alika replied casually.

"If your husband knows, you are not going to Bali to attend the Wedding Expo and even clubbing here, you can be hanged."

"Haha, that won't happen, because Dirga loves me too much. More precisely ... stupid!" Crisp laughter echoes mixed with DJ music. Alika was so enjoying that sparkling world.

"Actually I'm curious, you love not the same husband? He's handsome and rich. If you weren't my friend, maybe I would've been an actor."

Alika laughed again while drinking. "I just love Mahendra's money. About Dirga I don't care."

"So all this time your husband is not aware that you are only using him to live a luxurious life?" ask Yeni.

"He didn't even suspect that the Wedding Expo was just an excuse. I went to Bali just for fun."

"Are you not afraid that you will later cheat or fall in love with other women because you live often?"

Instantly the smile that adorned Alika's beautiful face dimmed. Turned into a look of doubt. He still remembers a few hours before his departure to the airport, he had a big fight with Dirga.

"Don't blame me for cheating!" the speech kept ringing. However, his high self-confidence had catapulted him.

"He will never be able to turn away from me. Because he loves me too much" he said with confidence.
