Trouble(Problem)

Samuel rechecked the expense report from the file Bayu sent. There is swelling there, some costs that are not too important to be incurred to make a loss in his Advertising company. Although not much but enough to make Sam growled. "How can you save a gini cake anyway Bay?!" Scattered the table and showed the laptop screen towards Bayu. "Sorry Sam, I don't think if there's a staff in the production field to swell our budget."

"What should I say to mister Jhonattan Bay? you know he's an important client. Advertising her products with poor quality but exorbitant costs? damned!!"

Samuel once again raised his fist on his desk, then again struggled with the keyboard on his thin laptop.

"Yes Sam we use makeshift property, besides clients will not be aware." proposed Bayu.

"Crazy lo Bay, I've never cheated on my job." Quiet for a moment and a little brain-twisting to overcome the chaos in his Advertising company.

"You don't want us to replace all the concepts and production costs" said Sam finally.

"Starting from the beginning?"

Sam nodded in answer to Bayu's question, rubbing his tired face rough.

"Lo is also Sam mostly in the property lo's office. I've focused on this company that has been pioneering from the beginning of your career."

Samuel took a deep breath hearing Bayu's words. Now his mind is back branching, if he focuses while in Advertising, it means Samuel must let Maya back close to Elano. For a while he will not be in the office of Property Wijaya Group.

"Lagian you are the second shareholder, there are still Wijaya families who handle there right." continued Bayu.

Sam closed his mouth, formed a thin line full of annoyance, wiped the coarse hair and now supported the head with both hands, looked up briefly and then took a breath back, "Okey.." said Sam later.

Sam will temporarily refocus on his own company, though he knows the decision will further distance him from Maya.

Sam's phone rang again, it felt like he wanted to ignore the call especially when he knew that Anita was calling. Returning to try to catch his breath and emotions, Sam grabbed his flat phone while getting closer to the ear. "Yes ma?___ I have a ma___ job right now?___ okey-okey Sam's there. Yea..."

"Gue has to go to my parents' house first. Call me if there's anything."

Bayu nodded slowly, giving Samuel a way to get out of his office room.

A maid opened the door for Sam and saluted.

"Where's the mama bik?" sam asked, slightly loosening the circular tie around the neck.

"Den Sam is waiting for the mistress and master in the back room." replied the aunt. Sighing for a while, Samuel stepped his foot into the back room.

Sure enough, Sam saw Anita and Permana the father, sitting side by side with a tense expression. Reconciling her net, she also saw Martha sitting in the corner of the room with a face as pale as snow.

"What is this Ma?" samuel asked with a frown slightly furrowed in wonder. The man sat on one of the golden-brown wooden chairs.

There was no reply from Anita, the graceful woman just exhaled softly, looking at each other towards her husband. "Why is Tha here too? not at home, you give birth again and do not have to walk here and there."

Samuel momentarily looked towards Martha, the girl was still silent, bowing her head deeply.

"Why is everyone quiet? Ma, what's this really about?" Sam asked the question with an annoyed face.

"The mother caught Martha, your wife was at the doctor's house" Anita said. Anita's jutek expression was clearly visible on her clean face, glancing annoyedly at Martha.

"That's Tha?" now Sam drew closer to Martha, standing before the girl, looking intently at Martha's neutrals.

"And my mom saw the doctor kissing and hugging Martha" Anita continued. Sam was shocked to hear his mother's words. Now his emotions were overflowing again, grabbing Martha's two arms and clutching tightly. "What is Tha?" shaking Martha's body with eyes full of anger.

Given Martha's bulging stomach, Sam tries to ease her emotions. Take off her hand and get away from Martha.

"Now you're honest Tha, how long have you had an affair with Harris huh?!" sam asked, raising the intonation of his voice.

Martha flinched in shock, twisting a hint of her trembling shoulders. "See.. see... beeluum.. ki.ta marry Sam." Still with his face down, Martha now ventured to look at Sam's face.

"But it's all your fault Sam, if you're indifferent to me, stupid to me. I'm not gonna do this." Martha tried to defend herself.

"Now you're saying, that kid in your womb, my son or not?"

There was no reply from Martha, making Sam even more furious.

"Java!!" snarl Sam again. Martha was trembling with fear, and now the clear liquid suddenly slid freely on her white cheeks.

"Lo...." Samuel raised his palm, almost flinging it to Martha's cheek. If Sam hadn't remembered Martha's child, he could have done worse to Martha.

Stopping his kite, Sam now clenched his palm tightly, holding back his emotions. "Aarr!!"

"I'm sorry Sam."

Martha cried, trying to grab Sam's arm.

"Don't touch me!!" Dodging a few steps away from Martha, Sam now brushed his curly hair away.

"Why do you do that Tha, why the same with Sam and aunt?"

"That means before you got married, you weren't pregnant? or...."

"Tha is not pregnant yet, Tha lied about the pregnancy" Martha continued.

It made Sam and his parents again surprised, angry and somehow they felt what else they felt at that time.

"Dammit!!! why did you sell it to me? you're sick Tha, really sick!!"

He punched his fist into the wall, venting out all the anger he felt at this moment. Many times Sam shouted loudly, making Anita and Permana look at the nanar towards his only son.

"I love you Sam, but you never think of me."

"Sorry Tha, aunt..."

The girl now headed towards Anita, trying to grab her hand and hug the woman. Anita quickly avoided Martha.

"You've considered like your own son, but you're this bad as Samuel? aunt can't forgive you Tha."

Martha was still weeping, but none of this shook the anger of Anita or Samuel.

"After the child is born, we get divorced. I take care of all that" said Sam.

"Before the child is born, it's up to you to stay at my house or Harris. And before our divorce, I'm going to charge you until the boy is born" Samuel continued.

"Sam.." said Martha.

"Diem!!" sela Samuel fast. With an annoyed face, Sam left the living room located at the end of the mansion. Stepping towards the second floor, wanting to rest her body for a moment in her private room. Maybe for a while, he'll stay at his parents' mansion.

"Sam." Martha screamed again, trying to soften Sam's heart.

"You better go home first, don't bother Sam" Anita said.

"I'm sorry Anita's aunt" she said slowly.

A look of regret was now clearly visible on Martha's face, stepping back from Anita's mansion, then calling her personal driver.

Anita stood sculpting, tightening the deck of Permana, her husband. "What have I done to Sam?" pilu.

"Dear, everything that happens has a silver lining. After all Sam never loved Martha, they were not a match."

Permana stroked both shoulders of Anita, landed a small kiss on her forehead and then re-clutched her body tightly.

"But Sam's status.." - Weak Anita.

"Isn't that just status? don't think about people. Good bad Sam, he's still our son, right," Permana continued, trying to calm his wife.

Anita nodded, increasing her embrace and kissed the tip of the man's lips.

"You rest first, let Samuel go, he also needs time to be alone." Continue Permana again.

Sam did not understand his own feelings at this moment. Problems one by one are suffering from it. Starting from the closeness of Maya and Elano, the problems in his business and also Martha's lies so far. Especially for the latter, did Sam somehow have to act angry? relieved? or feeling very stupid, being simply beguiled by Martha's deception. Many times Sam's fist landed on the concrete wall of his room. He did not care about the pain felt, almost a year of marriage without any love. Sacrificing all Sam's feelings for Maya, Samuel really felt this time to be the stupidest person in the universe. If only there had been a nomination for that category, Samuel might have been the champion.
