Love On The Side
'11

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

Rohan's eyes immediately rounded perfectly because of Rere's words just now. "Re, you ... why the hell? Amira's your closest friend, isn't she? He's also your brother, Rere."

"Sister stepbrother."

Rere stared in dislike towards Rohan. Being looked at instead of feeling, is becoming more and more.

"Why if he's your half-brother, Re? Clearly, he is also your brother, right? Who lived together from childhood to adulthood."

"That's what I regret now, Mom. Why do I have a half-brother like him. It sucks."

"Rere!"

"What!"

"You want to know Amira again? Keep going until I know what your relationship with Amira really is."

Instantly, the words made Rohan freeze. Slowly, he realized what kind of trouble they were currently experiencing. Therefore, Rohan suddenly dizzy now.

While Rere who did not want to talk to Rohan anymore, immediately left Rohan alone without a word.

....

"Hello, mum. Tumben you called me at this hour. Where are you now?"

"I'm at the cafe, Mi."

"That cafe near your house?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Oh. Mm ... How do you plan on doing baikin Rere? Did it work, Mas?"

"No, Mira."

The answer in a limp tone made Amira very curious. "No? How could it be?"

"Mm .. but you know what he's hiding from us right now?"

"I mean, what made him turn out to be weird like that."

"I think I know what's causing it, Mi."

"You know what, Mas? What cause?" The curious tone sounded very clear now. Amira seems to have been very curious as to what caused Rere to change.

"It seems, Rere knows the relationship between me and you, Mi. Because earlier, when he talked to her, he asked me not to mention your name. Apparently, he was furious when I took your name when we talked."

Amira remained silent. A feeling of shock just came to his heart. He was also afraid of something.

'No. Rere can't know about my relationship with Rohan. I can't let any of this happen.' Amira spoke in her heart while tightly grasping her own hand.

The call from the end of the device that is still ongoing makes Amira aware of what previously filled the mind. He also tried to calm his heart as quickly as possible.

"What the hell are you, Mir? Why silent? What were you thinking just now, hm?" Rohan's question came with a lot because before, after he said about the cause of Rere's changing attitude, Amira immediately fell silent.

In a very sad tone and also sad, Amira said. Of course the words directly touched Rohan's heart. How not? The woman he loved so much begged him deeply. So, there was no reason for Rohan to reject the plea even though it was very hard for him to do so.

"All right, my Amira. You take it easy, I'll do everything I can to get Rere better. You know, right? Rere loves me so much. As for me, I love you so much. So, everything's gonna be fine."

After the chat ended, Amira was immediately startled with a voice that immediately entered her room. With a very panicked face, Amira tried to stay calm by greeting the person with a big smile.

"Ma-- mommy. When's Mama here, Ma?"

Mama, she is Rere's mother whom Amira calls by the same name. The woman who had taken care of Amira to grow up as she is today. Because of the woman, Amira is willing to give Rohan to Rere who since childhood grew up with him.

"Newly, Mi. Who did you talk to? How serious does that sound?"

Instantly, the question made Amira's panicked face relapse again. Even so, Amira still tried to calm down so that her stepmother did not put on suspicious feelings even though she was very nervous right now.

"That's .. a friend from college, Ma. I want to ask her for help to buy me a ticket to enter the amusement park this weekend, ", said Amira with an awkward smile.

"Oh."

"Why not take Rere to the amusement park, Mi? He will also be happy later if he can play to the amusement park. After all, you guys haven't been together in a long time, have you?"

"It ... anu .. mm .. not good as Rohan, Ma. They want to spend time together as a couple."

Mama Rere nodded slowly.

"You're right too. They also need more time together, right? Her marriage was almost two years old, but she still had no children. They need a vacation like that."

Suddenly, Amira immediately rounded her eyes looking at her stepmom. "Li--- vacation, ma?"

"Yes. Vacation to a romantic place to make a grandchild for mama." Mama Rere said with a big smile.

While Amira who listened to it could only hold back. Holding back from showing his jealousy to Rere.

'Relax, Mira. Until now, Rere will never be able to have a child from Rohan. Because all this time, Rohan has never had a serious relationship. Because in Rohan's heart there is only one. The woman he loves the most.'

'Huf .... If you could be a little powerful in this family, then I wouldn't have to behave like the weak Cinderella I am today. Who accepted all the decisions just because I was powerless to resist.'

'Or .. if Rohan is not an ordinary man. Born into the simplest family. I can be happy with him. Because she can give me a decent life as a wife.'

'Well but the truth is, he's just a man who relies on his wife's family alone. Without the help of his wife's family, then he will also live destitute like a lowly man who can not do anything. What a naive and horrible life. Ah .... '

After being satisfied to talk to herself in the heart, Amira even immediately threw a big breath without realizing that her stepmother was still in the room. Of course, what Amira had just done made a strange look instantly appear from the stepmom's eyes.

"Why are you, Mira? After a long moment of silence, it suddenly snorted like just now. What the hell is on your mind now?"

"Eh! Ma-mama. No, Ma. Just a little tired. Office work piled up today. So, tired."

Amira reasoned while pursing her lips. And, that reason mama Rere received by directly leaving Amira's room.

"Well if that's the case, mama's gone now. You can rest now."

"Y-yes, Ma. Sorry yeah. I can't talk to my mom for long."
