Lies
The Woman I Want to Marry

Raya doesn't know what happened to her, but throughout the dinner she keeps her eyes on Karan. The way Karan treated Sekar and how Sekar responded to the treatment. Sekar seems to love Karan. His face was cheerful every time he got the gentle treatment of the man. In fact, he is not shy to kiss Karan's cheeks on the sidelines of a meal.

From Raya's view, Karan looks like a loving man. It is a little possessive because his hands are always actively touching the hand of Sekar to show that the woman is his. And Sekar did not mind accepting both of Karan's attitudes. It even looks like it's enjoying it.

“How? Do you like food here?” Karan opened his voice after they finished eating. It is important for Karan to know Varen and Raya's opinion given that he is the one who recommended the restaurant.

Varen wiped the corner of his lips and smiled. “Excellent, I enjoy it,” praise the man. Then, he turned towards Raya. “How about you, Honey?”

Raya could have lied by saying the food was delicious if the plate was not full of food. Actually Raya can not enjoy anything that goes into her mouth. His mind was suddenly in chaos. His heart is not calm. Maybe because his relationship with Varen is still awkward after their quarrel. Or because Raya saw Karan bring another woman in front of her. I don't know.

“I'm not feeling well,” said Raya in the end.

Varen could only sigh, not knowing what he should do to Raya. Until Karan gives her a sign. The friend winked, as if asking him to leave the place for a while. Yeah, it's time. Karan wants to talk to Raya about their problem.

“I have to call the client first,” Varen said as he left his desk.

Shortly after, Sekar also asked for permission to go to the toilet after Karan touched his shoulder. Previously Karan had said that he would code for Sekar to understand.

“They all go,” Tukas Raya while laughing sadly.

Karan sipped his drink up to the toilet before replying, “What's the matter?”

“Ya?” Raya looks confused to hear Karan's words. “What do you mean?”

“Your food is not depleted and your face looks pale. Obviously you don't look okay.” Karan folded his hands on his chest while leaning into his stool. “What's up?”

Despite being cornered like that, Raya still did not want to show her weakness to Karan. He shook his head. “Not a big problem. Only a couple's quarrel will be resolved quickly. How about you?”

“I? Why?”

“Are you happy with Sekar?”

Karan smiled when he heard the bitter tone in Raya's question. This is according to his plan. Karan deliberately showed affection in front of Raya, in a public place. It's just a heartless act. Because Karan still really wants Raya. Even now, just by colliding gazes with Raya had already made Karan's heart race. If only there were no Varen and Sekar, maybe Karan had kissed Raya's lips.

For Raya to know she only wants Raya, showing how much she loves her eyes or body. Not to the artist Karan brought, not to the woman pretending to be his lover, but to Raya. Karan felt hot and sultry even though the air conditioner was still functioning normally. Maybe Karan's body is already abnormal.

“Yes, as you can see,” Karan said as he loosened his tie.

“You're going to marry him?” connect Raya by displaying eyelights full of questions.

Karan nodded his head. “Maybe.”

Seeing that, Karan immediately sped up. He stood up and prevented Raya from touching the glass debris. “Please clean this glass yes,” the man said to a waiter who approached them. “Come, we have to move places for a while.”

Karan clasped Raya's hand and took the woman to the table that was behind their table earlier. “Do you feel uncomfortable? Sorry.” Karan took off Raya's hand after they got to the seat.

“Sit down,” said the man again.

Although it was calm, but when he saw Karan's face, Raya was restless. His mind danced, remembering Karan's words just now. Speech about the marriage of men with Sekar. I don't know why Raya was angry. It was as if he did not want the man to be with another woman.

“What is your type like Sekar?” Again Raya opened the conversation by asking about Karan's lover.

“Ya,” reply Karan. “I like beautiful women, and a little submissive. Might as well be famous because I need popularity.” Karan does not explain about Sekar but about Raya. The man's eyes looked at the super model wildly even though the woman could not see him because he was looking down sad.

“Should it be like that?” She flinched at her own question. In a hurry he corrected it. “I mean, does it have to be an artist?”

“Not really. I have no problem with his job. You know ‘kan my money is more than enough to meet the needs of my wife later. Artists, politicians, entrepreneurs. I have no problem with all that.”

A thin smile rose on Raya's lips. The woman seemed relieved to hear Karan's words. “Oh so,” he said while nodding his head understood.

Karan chuckled a little. The plan worked very well. Plans to make Raya feel jealous. From the beginning the purpose of this meal together was made Karan not to improve the relationship of Raya and Varen like Karan promised his friend. Karan only wanted to introduce Sekar to see the reaction of Raya. And the woman looked jealous. Karan was very satisfied with that.

“How about you? Can you tell me your mood is not good today?” ask Karan.

Raya squeezed her hands into each other while looking at Karan's face with worry. “I don't know. Eum, I mean, I have a little doubt about my marriage.”

Karan's heart cheered happily. Raya hesitates and Karan is happy to hear it. Despite that, Karan tried to show his calm face. “Ha? Why is that all of a sudden? Your marriage is in about a week, Raya. How could you doubt?”

“Iya, I know it.” Gulp down his salivary. A rough gust of breath came out from his lips. “That's what I meant. Our wedding is a week away, but I can't feel calm.”

“What happened?” karan. Her brown Netra continued to look at Raya confidently, as if to say that she was the right person for Raya to tell a story. “Oh, come on Raya! If I didn't know your problem, how could I possibly know what made you doubt your marriage? I just want to help you. Varen is my best friend. It means you are my friend.”

I don't know if what he's doing is right or not. However, Raya had no friends to express her feelings. Only Karanlah is the closest person to Raya now. And as the man said just now, he was Varen's best friend. Maybe Karan can find a way out of their problems.

“I don't think Varen is seriously marrying me. I know this is ridiculous, but I feel jealous. Varen has a girlfriend who is close to him. Varen introduced him to me. They have been on good terms since college. I know that fact too. It's just me—”

“Jealous?” timpal Karan's. Her lips were hot after blasting the word. Karan hopes Raya doesn't agree. She should have denied what Karan said.

It seems that Karan's wish did not materialize because Raya nodded her head. “Yes, I'm jealous,” I'm that woman.
