My employer, my husband
Like Clowns

"Let Aunt clean it up, Non" said the waiter who wanted to help Arumi clean the dinner table.

"It's not necessary, Bi. Let Arumi clean up later. Aunty just go back to the room," Arumi refused with a warm smile to Auntie.

"Alright then, Non. Auntie said goodbye,"

The waiter leaves Arumi alone in the dining room. After the waiter died, Arumi again grieved when he saw a row of food that was still a lot on his desk.

His feelings mixed into one, sad, angry, upset and also disappointed. However, he did not know where to vent everything.

Arumi's body slowly slumped to the floor. He was lying there with tears that kept coming from both of his eyes. Until finally, he fell asleep.

. . .

Time shows at 02:00 in the morning,

Adnan woke up from his sleep because he suddenly felt thirsty. Andan looked to the side, apparently he did not meet Arumi there.

"Where is that woman? He must have gone home to his mother and whined again there. Heh, habit! Didn't he promise to change, but what's the evidence? I'm sorry I married her!"  Annoyed Adnan while rubbing his face violently.

Yes, that's Adnan's view of Arumi. A spoiled girl who likes to whine at her mother. And it was one of the things he disliked most about Arumi.

Adnan got up from his bed and stepped into the kitchen. And when Adnan arrived there, he was surprised because the lights in the dining room were still on. Slowly Adnan entered the room and watched the amount of food arranged on the table.

"What's this?" muttered Adnan while linking his two eyebrows. He continued to step up to the dining table and accidentally stepped on the dress that was being worn by Arumi.

Adnan gasped in shock as he watched the woman lying on the floor without any pedestal. Adnan squatted down and tried to wake Arumi up.

"Navy ... Arumi, what are you doing here?" Adnan shook Arumi's body and he felt Arumi's body so cold.

Slowly the woman opened her eyes. He was shocked when he saw Adnan in front of him. "Mas," said Arumi while putting on a smile as sweet as possible.

Adnan noticed Arumi's appearance at the time. The make up that adorns Arumi's face is messy. Similarly, his hair that was originally neatly arranged, is now disheveled. Adnan chuckled softly while shaking his head.

"Why are you dressing up like this, Arumi? Naila never used Make Up too much like you, but she still looks beautiful. You should clean your face, your appearance even looks like a clown at this time," said Adnan.

Elan ...

Arumi is like a lightning shot when Adnan compares himself to Naila. Without any guilt at all, the man left her alone in the room.

"I'm like a clown?" Arumi's cries broke again.

Arumi. While running small, he headed for the bathroom in his room. Arumi locked the door and a mirror was placed on the bathroom wall.

"Yes, Mom! I'm not as pretty as Naila. But is it wrong, if I try to look attractive in your eyes? Make up is just a mask, Mas! So that you don't see what I'm hiding behind it!" lirih Arumi while wiping her tears.

Meanwhile, Adnan was back in bed and ready to resume his sleep. While Arumi, after finishing cleaning her face, Arumi also changed her dress with a nightgown. He approached the bed and lay down beside Adnan.

Even to this day, Adnan has never touched it. The man kept his back when he slept.

"I saw the food lined up on the dining table, what exactly are you doing, Arumi? Do you know, out there there are still many who can not eat, while you are wasting food!" said Adnan,

Arumi turned towards Adnan who was still lying down while turning his back. Arumi tilted her body and was now right behind her husband.

"Today, as Arumi's apology to Mas Adnan, Arumi learned to cook to welcome Mas's arrival. However, Mas did not want to when Arumi took her to the dining room. The food was lying there and now it does not look attractive anymore" said Arumi.

Adnan turned around then looked at Arumi's pale face. "Free, Arumi! You've forgotten our agreement before marriage. Didn't you promise me that you would change your bad attitude? You said you wouldn't be possessive anymore and wouldn't be a spoiled kid who likes to whine at your mom! But what is the evidence? Just a little bit of trouble, you ran to your mom and you swung there like a baby?!" hardik Adnan, slow but firm.

"I married you out of pity for your mother who whines to me every time so I can accept you again. And I also hope that by marrying you, I can remove Naila from my heart and mind. But I was wrong! You will never be able to take Naila's place from my heart if you stay like this, which is me getting illfil!" ssmbung Adnan is upset.

The man turned back and turned his back.

"Mas, just give me a little attention, so that later if God has picked me up, I can go home with a smile," said Arumi as she shed her tears.

Adnan did not respond at all, The man tightly closed his eyes and ears. It was as if he already did not want to hear and see anything that Arumi did.

"Good night, Mas Adnan. Have a good dream."

Arumi turned her back and tried to close her eyes until she fell asleep.

. . .

Early in the morning, Arumi was awake. He rushed to shower and dress up. His face was still pale, just like yesterday and he did not want Adnan to see it with such a face.

She also prepared Adnan's clothes and everything her husband needed. When he finished, he immediately headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

"Let me do it, Miss. You just rest, I don't want you to be exhausted" said the waiter with an anxious face watching Arumi who was ready to wrestle with her cooking tools.

Arumi smiled as she looked at her Servant. "It's okay, Bi. I'm still wondering how Mas Adnan reacted when tasting my cooking because last night I failed" said Arumi.

Not long after, finally breakfast style Arumi was arranged on the table. Just waiting for the Executive Chef to come down from his room and taste the cuisine.

With his heart pounding, Arumi waited in the dining room and he hoped Adnan would like his cooking.
