Marrying the Depression Master
CH-147 Guests from Paris Come Again

This morning in the dining room feels a little different, not too quiet because there is a Mrs.Inez in this house. Although Jack kept his distance from his mother, and did not talk much. Ara's trying to make Mrs.Inez comfortable.

“I go first,” said Jack ended his meal, went straight up and kissed his wife's cheek. Even though he had already tasted it, he never got tired of kissing it.

Ara simply smiled at her husband and continued to finish her meal.

“What Mistress now feels better?” ara asked, looking at her mother-in-law.

“Iya,” reply Ny.Inez.

“If I may know why Jack is with Madam?” ask Ara.

Miss Inez looked at Ara. Looks like Jack didn't say anything about last night.

“It just so happens that Jack came home, there was a little quarrel,” replied Ny.Inez, not explaining the truth, because it seems like Jack also did not tell Ara that he was Arum.

Ara nodded, not continuing her question. Distant sounds of cars entering the yard.

“This morning there is a guest,” said Ara, ending her meal.

“Mistress, I want to see first whose guests are coming,” said Ara, while getting up from her seat.

Mrs.Inez just nodded.

Arapun immediately went to the living room. He saw Mr. Sobri open the main door of the house.

“Whose guest is Sir?” ask Ara.

“Cata security guest from Paris,” replied Mr. Sobri.

Ara immediately felt the hang of every name it was called.

Mr. Sobri came out the door, Ara followed him. From the car came down two people in uniform, not two people, there were two more people, more than before. Ara looked at them with a restless feeling.

The four of them saluted him, but Ara just stared at him, looking at them one by one. Why did you see them coming as if they were going to take your husband away from you?

“For Madam! We are from Paris, want to meet General Jack Delmar!” said one of them in English.

Ara nodded then turned to look at Mr. Sobri. The head of household affairs at Jack's house immediately went into the house.

“Please enter!” ara said to them.

The two men entered, but they did not sit, just stood up. Two more people stood on the terrace.

Ara also just stood in the living room, looking at Mr. Sobri who had disappeared behind the wall.

Not long ago, Mr. Sobri came with Jack and Mr. Beni.

The two soldiers saluted Jack, who also paid his respects, then they spoke in French.

Ara just looked at her husband and then at the soldier, she did not want to leave. Just stand up. Even though he didn't understand French but he wanted to just listen and fumble about what they were talking about.

 Jack turned to Beni, who immediately went out of the house.  Jack came in, followed by the two soldiers. The man looked solemn not the least bit looking at his wife who was unwilling to leave the room.

Again Ara just watched them leave. Her heart's getting more agitated, did they come to pick Jack up?

Mrs.Inez came into the room.

“After guest?” ms. Inez asked, but looking at the room there was only Ara and Mr. Sobri who closed the door.

“The camera is with Jack,” replied Ara.

“You why? Who is the guest?” asked Ms.Inez who saw Ara look tense.

“His watch is from Paris, soldier GIGN, where Jack works,” replied Ara, why does his heart feel lethargic.

Miss Inez smiled at Ara, then walked up to her, holding onto Ara's shoulder.

“You don't have to worry, Jack does work in Paris, you can ask to come with him to Paris,” said Mrs.Inez.

“But Jack said, not now taking me to Paris, he only has a job,”.

“No problem, maybe there is an important business, later he will also go home, he also has a lot of work here,” said Ny.Inez, comforting Ara.

“But why does my heart feel uneasy huh?” mummified Ara.

Miss Inez smiled again.

“That's natural, because it's the first time Jack's gone without you right?” tanyakanya.

“Iya,” replied Ara, nodding.

While the two of them were talking, there was a sound of steps into the living room, it was Jack.

“Honey, I want to talk,” said Jack.

Ara looked at her husband and approached him. Jack reached out his hand to hug her waist Ara invited her to their room. Mrs.Inez just stared at their departure.

“What are they here to pick you up?” asked Ara, when they were already in the room.

“Iya,” replied Jack, while inviting Ara to sit on the edge of the bed, he was sitting next to him.

“Honey, I have to come with them now, there is a country assignment,” Jack said.

“How long?” ask Ara.

“Actually I don't know either,” replied Jack.

“Why not know?” ask Ara.

“The task is rather heavy,” replied Jack.

Ara did not want to let go of her gaze on her husband. It was as if she was memorizing her husband's facial lines, as if she was afraid to forget his face.

There was a knock on the door a few times. Jack got up and opened the door. It turned out to be Mr. Beni.

Ara only saw from a distance that Mr. Beni gave something in a clear plastic lid. Is that clothes?

Jack shut the door again, he came back to Ara.

The man stood in front of Ara holding the clothes using his hanger and the pastry cover, shown to Ara.

“This is my official dress. I've asked my aides to take her if they pick me up,” Jack said.

Ara was stunned to see the official clothes in Jack's hands.

“You will want to put on my official clothes,” said Jack again, staring at Ara.

Ara looked at the clothes then at Jack.

“Iya, but...” Ara was silent, looking back at the clothes, why did her heart feel uneasy and her heart was pounding when she saw the clothes?

“You can put it on now,” said Jack, smiling.

Ara was not at all happy with that smile, that smile was like she was comforting him.

“Iya, why use here?” ask Ara.

“So you can put it on,” replied Jack, still standing in front of his wife.

Ara was silent again, that was not the case but she felt her heart was very agitated, her feelings were uneasy when she saw the clothes. Playing it was far from his shadow.

She imagined she would dress him happily and proudly to her husband, but now, her heart felt even more agitated.

“You will wear this shirt now?” ask Ara.

Jack nodded, then gave the clothes to Ara who immediately received them with a grim hand and a heart that felt increasingly anxious.

The clothes felt so heavy because many attributes were attached there. Ara kept it in her lap.

There was another knock on the door, Jack opened the door again. Ara saw Mr. Beni again who came carrying two boxes, Jack accepted it and closed the door.

Jack came back to Ara who was staring at the box. Jack kept the box on the bed, then opened it, it turned out that it contained one hat and one pair of shoes. The shoes that Ara saw when Jack called her in Paris.

Ara looked at the items then looked at Jack.

“Why?” jack asked with a smile, looking at his wife's attitude like that.

“Is there anything you're hiding?” ask Ara, just guess.

“You are why? I asked my aide to bring me these things so you could play them to me,” Jack said.

Ara was still looking at him.

“That's free?” ask Ara.

“Iya,” replied Jack.

“I don't understand why you always keep secrets with me?” ask Ara.

“You are why? I only bring my clothes, don't you want to see me wearing them?” ask Jack.

“I'm your wife, I know you're hiding something,” said Ara, her eyes just blushing.

Jack came up to her and grabbed her hand.

“Yes you're my wife, so I asked the aide to bring the clothes for you to wear to me. I'd love it if you put it on,” Jack's birthday.

Ara lowered her head and the tear drops fell onto the plastic package that wrapped her clothes Jack.

“Are you going long?” ara asked, pulling her hand from Jack's handle.

Jack stared at him. He was also confused to explain.

Ara looked at Jack again with her already watery eyes.

“Where are you going to work?” ask Ara.

“Ke Paris,” replied Jack.

“You're lying, if you go to Paris you'll take me. You said yourself that if you go to Paris, you will take me, now you do not take me, you do not go to Paris,”, said Ara.

Jack was silent and just looked at his wife who now raised her face to look at him. Those pretty eyes were already filled with clear details of tears.
