Thirty-three: Awkward

Ali pov's.
I kept staring at Rendy and Prilly laughing together. They look very happy. I never saw Prilly laugh after that as long as she was my wife... I've also never seen Rendy laugh after that ...
They look like they love each other, I'm even pretty sure that Rendy didn't play with Prilly. I know Rendy, and I'm sure Rendy really loves Prilly and there's no intention of playing Prilly like she ever told me.
I took a deep breath and walked over to my Father and Mother-in-law to say goodbye. Although I honestly wanted to take Prilly home with me, but I didn't have the heart.
I can't bear to ruin their happiness. Should I sacrifice my love for their happiness?
I love Rendy just as much as I love my two sisters, after all she is also my sister. Yes, even though he would never consider me a sister.
After I got home I threw myself into the bed and stared at the sky in my room, my mind drifting back a few years.
I grimaced in my heart feeling the pain in my chest as my memory returned to that time, the most difficult time for all of us.
Huh! Thinking about it made me feel like the worst person in the world.
I also decided to sleep, relieving the pain in my chest that felt tight.

Prilly circulates her eyes, trying to find where Ali is but finds her husband nowhere.
'Are Ali home' Prilly's inner self asked.
"What's wrong?" ask Rendy because she saw Prilly sitting on her nerves.
Prilly looked at Rendy then shook her head slowly. "It's okay." said Prilly.
Rendy knows Prilly is lying but she doesn't want to ask any further because Rendy knows what makes Prilly nervous. "You going home now?" ask Rendy.
Prilly just nodded and got up from her seat. They also walked up to Papa Prilly to say goodbye first.
"Pa... Ma.." call Prilly when she's near them.
Haidar looked at his daughter and raised one eyebrow. "What's wrong?" tanyakanya.
"It's okay if we go home first?" ask Prilly.
"It's okay... After all, soon the show is also over, we know you must be tired." replied Prilly's stepmother, Alika while smiling sincerely at Prilly.
Julian who was not far from them snorted. "Sapek what? It should be Mama and Papa! It's not you just sitting on the couch courting." Julian said sarcastically.
"Julian!" exclaims Alika furious because the child is always talking as it is. Hidhi.
"What's? It's true, even she ignored her husband" Julian said staring at Rendy dislike. I don't know from the first time Julian saw Rendy he was not like, he himself did not know why.
"There is no need to discuss this" said Haidar.
Rendy stared cynically at Julian, and vice versa. Julian was no less cynical looking at Rendy.
While Prilly was just grimacing, inwardly he justified all Julian's utterances. Because everything Julian said was true, he ignored Ali and chose to be with Rendy throughout the wedding reception of his Papa and his new Mama (left).

This morning I prepared breakfast as usual. As a good wife, huh am I worthy to call myself a good wife while I am wishing my husband?
Like her I deserve to be called a wife of a traitor! Not a good wife.
Lord.... I'm sorry, I don't know what to do. I've loved Rendy ever since I first saw her in our campus cafeteria.
But five months I lived with a man who was my husband, and I also started to feel for him. Even though I don't know what I think I have of him.
The breakfast this morning was very quiet. Yes, although it is usually quiet, but I am not this stupid.
"Hmm." Rasya cleared his throat at a glance, we all looked at him.
"Where were you brother why wasn't there last night?" rasha asked Ali.
Ali looked back at his breakfast and replied briefly. "Go home" he said casually.
"Why? You humiliated us at the wedding ceremony Papa kak Prilly continued to go home just like that at the reception" said Dahlia at length.
"I've been saying goodbye to Papa and Mama" he replied still relaxed.
Rasya and Dahlia both snorted in annoyance. "At least you tell us if you want to go home, we're looking for you" Rasya said.
"Ck, I don't think it's necessary" Ali replied with a grouch.
I just quietly listened to the light debate of the brothers. So yesterday Ali came home first, I deserve to find his whereabouts not exist.
"It's very necessary brother! Yesterday brother Prilly found you to know." said Dahlia.
My eyes were wide, staring at Dahlia in disbelief, how would she know if I was looking for Ali yesterday? Yesterday I was looking for Ali, right?
"really?" ask Ali.
"What?" I asked back stupidly.
"No."
"Today Gwen has to go to the hospital, which she does every month, and I can't deliver Prilly so you can take Prilly and Gwen to the hospital?" rasha asked at length while diverting our conversation.
I just silently looked at Ali from the tail of my eyes because Ali just silently did not answer Rasya's words.
"Sister!"
"I had an important meeting today" Ali said at last.
There was disappointment in my heart when Ali said that, because it was the same if his work was more important than ours. Me and Gwen.
"Is your work more important than your wife and your son?" dahlia asked not to like it.
"Yes." Ali replied briefly densely and clearly.
"It's okay Rasya, I can ask Mang Udin to take me later" I said when I saw Rasya about to talk. Mang Udin is the driver in this house who doubles as a security guard. Because in this house there is rarely anyone who uses the services of a driver if it is not as tight as it is today.
After that, the atmosphere was quiet again until breakfast was over. Dahlia and Rasya left first, there was only Ali left at the dining table at the moment. I don't know why he's still faithfully sitting in his chair, usually he'll go ahead of Rasya and Dahlia.
I saw Ali breathing a long breath because I was watching Ali.
"I'll pick you up later" he said arriving.
"No need if I have to." I reply.
Ali got up from his chair and smiled at me. "Sorry.." he said.
I looked at him confused, why would he apologize to me?
"I'll be gone for a while, ten o'clock I'll be back to take you guys" Ali said. He walked over to me pecking my forehead long enough and then went out of the house.
I was still quietly peeking at my seat, still clueless as to what was really going on.
