Gita stirred the chocolate milkshake in front of her with no taste. His mind was full of burdens and unbecoming feelings. Thinking of how she should take a step forward about her frightening marriage, Gita becomes dizzy and has a headache.
The thing that holds him back now remains in the marriage is not money, but the existence of his in-laws who briefly so imprint in his heart. But Gita is so scared of Arki, she doesn't want to see him again and experiences something like last night.
Gita still shuddered to remember what she did. Strange feelings and sensations in his body while releasing pleasures that he had never felt. Gita must have been insane at that time to feel that. This is not normal!
Not to mention if you have to think about how to escape the lie about her pregnancy to Arki. Gita is getting pushed and cornered. He was not honest with her. All of this is a complete mess that Gita cannot control.
“Udah I said dozens of times same lo, Git. But still ngeyel want to cheat Arki with the same marriage he. Not until waiting a year already hit by the stone is lo,” said Mia upset because Gita continues to carry out his false plan.
“Yes back then, I thought that was the only way to get out of my debt problem, Mi. I also did not think that the situation even became chaotic and not according to plan.”
“Yes definitely will not go according to your plan! Lo expects Arki will be diem, all right and accept all your crazy ideas, to not connect with husband and wife, fret about your choice of doctor, not against lo work, not against your husband, believe the same plan of miscarriage lo and want to be invited to divorce? No way!” spray Mia as if slapping Gita.
It's not like Gita didn't know something like this would happen. He also had time to think about the failures of his plan. But Gita was desperate at that time to pay off her debt and in spite of the financial burden that squeezed her. He thought he could control it, but it turned out to be wrong.
“Lo thinks, Git. He used to be your boss, more pinter than you. There is no way that kayak people can control like a horse race again. If suddenly he wants to take care of him or suddenly he wants to live your life. Yes reasonable. From his view, he deserves to do it the same lo, because he's a lo.” husband
“If you know you will anger me, not so I met lo!” gita said annoyed with Mia's talk. The Gita just didn't want to hear the truth back then, it just needed a tranquilizer and a person who could listen to it neutrally.
“Soalya you've been lost far away, Git. Playing marriage only for money and profits for a moment is really a perverse way. That's why I'm angry, let me realize! Begajulan gini also I know religion yes, Git!”
Gita swerved. His decision to deceive Arki through a marriage was indeed an unforgivable heresy. Maybe God also directly punishes the Gita right now, by sending a husband as terrible as Arki.
“Yes already if so I, want to file for divorce and tell him that my pregnancy is just pretending. Surely he will also not forgive me, even so hate to me, will continue to agree about divorce.”
Gita had thought about this before. If Arki finds out about his lies, he will definitely hate him. His idea of divorce will be done soon. He didn't lose anything with it. His debt was paid off and he already had a new job. Perhaps the only thing that made him doubt was the feeling of guilt for injuring his in-laws.
“Lo thought it would be that easy? You've been deceiving him, Git. At least he reported lo and entered you to prison.”
“Ya keep I should how, Mi?” gita is frustrated.
“Don't know, I don't have any suggestions.”
The two of them were silent no longer talking, only listening to the music of the cafe playing in the background and paying attention to the activities of the people in the place.
Gita's reimagining her plan in her brain. She will remain separated from Arki, continuing her lies about her pregnancy and her miscarriage plans after registering a divorce. All of that to avoid getting Arki not to report him to the police for fraud. His lies must remain tightly closed. This time Gita can do well.
Gita's phone that was on the table suddenly shook. On the screen of the phone is written the name Arki clearly. Without interest, Gita immediately turned off the call. But Arki called him back. Several times they kept insisting on calling and closing calls in turn.
“Luck you anyway, Git!” mia was upset to see it.
“Do not want! I don't want to hear her voice!”
“Ya keep you want her? At home you will also meet him and chat, right?”
“Gue won't be coming home! Don't want to see him!”
“Ck ... really sprained I saw it!” mia exclaimed, pressed the button to receive a call on Gita's phone and then lifted it in front of her best friend's face.
“Mia!” gita Bentak.
“Gita,” said Arki on phone.
Mia and Gita looked at each other, glaring at each other. Mia kept holding up the phone in front of Gita's face and told her to speak through the glare of her eyes which warned fiercely. Finally Gita gave up and received the phone.
“Ya?” answer Gita lazy, stick the phone in her ear.
“I'll see Mia again at the cafe?”
“Kok you didn't say first if you want to go out?”
“Arki, you again come out also ngaterin mother, anyways I plan meeting impromptu.” said Gita trying to be patient.
“Ya send a cake message, Git. Why didn't you ever give me permission?”
“Arch! Why the heck of a trivial problem gini doang made ribet?” snapped Gita pissed.
“You need to tell me first. Don't be so reckless as gini. Go home now or am I there?!”
Mia just stared at the pouting and frowning Gita in her seat. His best friend was stubborn. Especially about romance. If Gita says she doesn't like it, she won't change her heart for anything.
In fact, if her best friend opened up a little of her feelings to her husband, her life would be better. As well as communicating about his lies, because Mia believes Arki is not as bad as Gita thought.
The man, who apologized immediately for abusing the Gita, offered her compensation and was immediately responsible when the Gita said she was pregnant for her actions. Such men are rare and difficult to find. Although Mia had doubted the man because he had been immoral towards Gita. But Mia had run out of words to lecture her friend.
“Git, I go home first,” said Mia when she saw the figure of Arki who appeared in the cafe and approached them.
Mia immediately said goodbye to the man who looked very upset. Looks like her best friend will have a bad day after this because of her husband's anger.
Arki sat down where Mia had originally sat. Facing each other with Gita, who turns her face away from her husband. His gaze was busy watching the barista who was concocting the ordered coffee skillfully. Arki continued to stare at him, resentment and anger gathering full in his head.
“Gita,” growled Arki tried to control his frustration.
His wife did not respond, her eyes were still staring at the barista. Arki grabs Gita's shoulder and stomps her until the girl sees her. Gita was shocked by the rude behavior. He saw that the man was staring fiercely. He recalled the last time they had a fight when they first got to work.
Arki sighed, easing his anger. “Can not once you do not like gini?”
“It wasn't me who should have said it was you? Stop doing the same with me! Even though you promised not to touch me and you have no regrets about kayaking last night, right?” Tears shed as they were annoyed by Arki's behavior.
“Ngga. I have no regrets. What I did last night was not forbidden. I'm your husband,” said Arki emphasizing his last sentence.
Gita really hates the word Husband. As if he had the authority to shackle his life and obey all the annoying behavior of Arki. Now Gita's desire to get away from this man is overflowing with great.
“Come home!” said Arki again. Not to persuade her, but to order Gita to follow her up and get out of the cafe.
Gita flinching. Just staring at the towering figure before him. Can't wait for Gita's behavior to challenge her. Arki immediately grabbed Gita's arm to stand up from her seat.
“Go home now! Or I call Mr. Usman, your boss let you get fired,” whispered Arki warned.
Rounded Gita's eyeballs. Bummer. “Why ... you know ... Mr Usman?” Gita is flabbergasted to hear Arki mention the name of his superior.
“He's my brother in college. You think I don't know senior accountants at other companies? You want to keep working, right? Go home! Otherwise, you will lose your job.” Arki warned again.
Cold sweat flooded the nape of Gita out of fear. He doesn't think that his boss knows Arki. Is Arki also watching him at work through his superiors? Why does he have so many connections to everyone?
Gita remembers how Arki immediately found her a temporary boarding house when Gita needed a place to live through his acquaintance, how Arki arranged their marriage which only needed a short preparation through his acquaintance as well, and how Arki found out about his debt then paid it off.
Gita thinks, does Arki really know about her feigned pregnancy? With its influence and extensive connections, it is not impossible for Arki to know about it.
Gita feels trapped in her own trap.
