Love On The Side
'10

"And again, that Rere really likes it when I give you a gift. So, later I'll just ignore him to make the lash go away. You calm down, yeah."

Amira nodded slowly. Physical contact is rare between Rohan and Amira. But not with the words that always make Amira feel, if Rohan will always be his.

"Thank you very much, Mommy. If that's what you're saying, then I can be a little quieter."

"No need to thank you, Mira. This is all nothing with what you've been doing all this time. Forever, you're the best."

...

Rere sat in front of the television after finishing cleaning himself. The first day was very tiring for Rere. Plus, the events he faced in the office made his mind become dizzy.

Intention to be ordinary to Amira and Rohan continues to be unable to do. There, the pain he felt always made him want to be angry at the two humans who were previously the closest to him.

Where there is a person who can be sweet after knowing he was hurt by the person. If there were, it wouldn't be Rere. Because he doesn't have that much patience in him.

When Rere was still busy with his phone, Rohan who had just returned home immediately approached Rere with a big smile. Not to forget, a parcel he had tote in his right hand. While the left hand, was carrying a suit that he had released from his body.

"You've been home a long time, Re?" Rohan spoke as he sat his butt on the sofa beside Rere.

"Udah." Rere replied without looking at it.

Unlike usual days, Rere will give a warm welcome when Rohan returns home after work. With a sweet face, she approached her husband while seizing the bag and the suit that was in Rohan's hands. But this time, Rere did not give the slightest welcome. In fact, when Rohan asked him to speak, he only answered with a short answer without turning his head.

Rohan, who had received unusual treatment earlier this morning, had now begun to make peace with the change. Although it feels very awkward, but Rohan does not want to create a debate again this time. He was trying to ignore the change for the sake of the change Rere was showing him at the moment.

"Mm .. You're busy right now, Re? What the hell is that doing? Not even a little while I talk."

That speech made Rere instantly speechless. But, still, Rere did not turn his head even though Rohan's words had already touched his heart.

"ah! I know you're mad at me. But what I don't know, you're angry about what, Re. As a result, I was confused myself by your much-changed attitude. Without knowing how I could fix the mistake I made before."

Rere immediately turned his head because Rohan had just said. "You sure you want to know why I changed, Rohan?"

"Of course, Re. Of course I want to know. Because this sudden change of you really disturbs my feelings. And also, Amira's feelings. He looks very uncomfortable with you suddenly changing for no reason at all. Therefore, I'm very curious, Rere."

Suddenly, the fragile feeling back Rere felt. He who initially wanted to be honest about what was going on with him, immediately canceled the intention to talk to Rohan.

'Heh ... Amira again Amira again. Is there not even me? The only one Rohan knows is Amira. Everything Amira. As for me, he didn't take it at all.' Rere laughed at himself.

She is sad because of the love she has. I hope to get a reply from that love. But in fact, not the recompense he received, but rather, the betrayal he committed subtly. Her delicate horn, she herself was barely aware of all that.

But, of course Rohan did not let that happen. Because he who had previously hoped to know what Rere was currently hiding, certainly did not want to be disappointed because of these expectations.

He holds Rere's hand so Rere doesn't leave him. "Wait, Re! What the fuck are you playing about to go? Kan, now we're talking, Rere."

"Then what if we're talking, Mom? Can't I do what I want while we're talking?"

"Yes, don't play go that dong, Re. Our conversation is not over. If you want to go, wait for our chat to finish first dong."

Rere laughed lightly.

"God! What if I want to leave before I finish talking to you, Mom? You can also take the name of another woman while we're talking, right?"

"The name of the woman you are guarding her feelings for. Who you always want to be happy about. And, the one you want to give all your life for her."

"Originally you know, a change in my attitude because of him, Mr. Rohan! Because of him!"

"Because I know, you love him, not me. I gave all my life for you. You married me because my family has merit for you, don't you? But if you can just give a little of your heart to me so that you understand, I also need love to maintain our household."

Unfortunately, all those words were just Rere's shadow alone. He did not say those words directly to Rohan. He had not laughed before. All Rere did was stand still while imagining all the words he released in front of Rohan.

"Rere."

Rohan's call made Rere aware of what he was daydreaming about. After waking up from the daydream, Rere immediately released Rohan's hand which was currently clutching his wrist.

"I'm tired, mas. Wanna rest. Don't bother me with a completely unimportant chat. Which we don't need to talk about now."

"not important? For you all this doesn't matter, Rere? You are right. Amira ...."

"Amira again?" Rere spoke while looking hard at Rohan's face. "Is Amira all you can think of right now, Mom? Try to think of me. Can't you, Rohan?"

Instantly, Rohan's face instantly turned nervous. "A--what do you mean, Re? Why are you talking like I'm just looking at Amira?"

"Because I think, the truth is like that, Mas. The proof, since then, all you care about is Amira. There's always Amira in the words you put out. I'm getting confused. Actually, your wife is me or Amira anyway?"

"Re! What the hell are you. Don't talk about the no-no. You are my wife."

'Yes, I'm your wife. But wife on paper only. Not for your heart and soul. Because for the mind as well as the heart, I am sure that there is Amira as the wife you crave.' Rere spoke inwardly while bracing himself.

"If I'm your wife, can you never say Amira's name when you talk to me?"
