Not the Idle Wife
Disappointment of Gavin

"Where are you from? why just got home? greet Gavin as soon as he sees Jelita.

"Don't I tell them that I bought cake ingredients? they didn't tell you?"

"They tell you the hell, just why did you take so long?"

"So the shop was crowded, Mas." replied Jelita, a little lying.

"So where are the things you bought?" Gavin looked at Jelita's hand which carried nothing at all.

"In a moment, we'll be escorted here, ma'am."

As Jelita finished saying that, a man appeared to descend from the motorbike and bring down Jelita's groceries.

"Please bring in all the goods, Bang!" tell Gavin while spending 5 pieces of money in red as a tip.

"A lot of it, Mas?" jelita whispered right in Gavin's ear.

"It's okay! this once in a while," said Gavin casually.

"But, fearing that every time he delivers goods here, he will expect to get a great tip just as much as you love," jelita's protest was completely lacking in agreement with what Gavin was doing.

"If you mind, every day I give you special money for tips, if you don't want to lose,"

"Ihh, that's not what I meant, Mas." Jelita pursed her lips.

"Here, no need to discuss anymore. Now we go straight home," Gavin looked completely flat, expressionless.

"Wait first! I say goodbye to them first," Jelita went inside and did not have to wait long, Jelita came back out and immediately followed Gavin into the car.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

"You don't have to cook for dinner! let's just order it," said Gavin, when they had just arrived and entered the apartment.

"Why?" Jelita scrunched her forehead.

"You've been tired all day. Now you take a shower, let me order us dinner. What do you want to eat?" Gavin asked as he pulled the phone out of his pocket.

"Whatever, Mas aja. I'm going with it. I'm not picky food," said Jelita who immediately felt relieved, because there was no need to cook anymore.

"Now you take a shower, let me wait for the food" said Gavin as he landed his body sitting leaning over the couch, loosening his tie.

"Emm, okay!" Jelita swung her foot towards her room.

Less than 30 minutes, Jelita looked out of the room, already looking fresh and changed clothes. The woman saw Gavin who was focused on playing the game on his phone.

"The food hasn't come yet, has it?" ask Jelita who made Gavin jerk, shocked.

"Eh, not yet! maybe in a minute. You came why didn't you say anything?" gavin protests while putting his phone back in his pants pocket.

"Silently how? Too focused on the phone,"

At the same time, the bell rang and Gavin stood up, for he was sure that their dinner was coming.

"Let's eat! the food had already come," Gavin stepped onto the dining table and Jelita followed behind.

Gavin placed the food on the table, while Jelita prepared dishes, spoons and water.

Without waiting for long, the sound of spoons and forks clashing against the plates, was heard filling the room. They both ate dinner without a sound.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

The dining table now looks clean, the dishes they used to eat are also lined up neatly on the plate rack that is close to the sink. But Gavin did not seem to have moved from where he was sitting.

"Mas, why are you still here? You don't want to take a shower?" Jelita scrunched her forehead.

"You sit down for a minute, there's something I want to talk to you about."

"Emm, what the hell is going on, Mom? is there something very important?" jelita asked after she sat not too far away from Gavin.

"I didn't take him? what if he refuses?" inner Gavin, dilemma.

"Lho, Mas said he wanted to say something, but why, Mas Gavin just shut up?" Jelita looked towards the bead of the eye, her husband. There was clearly doubt in the brownish-black bead of eyes.

"Jel, this Saturday I have an event with friends, do you want to come with me?" finally, Gavin dared to ask.

Jelita did not answer immediately, not because she did not want to, but because she remembered that she had promised to accompany Denis to her High School reunion.

"Why can it be like this? how'this?" jelita's mind, confused.

"How, Jel? why are you quiet?" Gavin opened the voice resuscitating Jelita from her daydream.

"Emm, look, Mas we will marry her secretly, if I come with you, there will be question marks from friends, Mas. Do you want them to know that I'm your wife. You can be embarrassed later, Mas," Jelita gave an excuse, hoping Gavin could accept the reason he gave.

"If I have dared to take you, it means that I will not be ashamed. Now you just answer, do you want it or not?" as usual, Gavin's annoying attitude reappears.

"Emm, actually I won't refuse, Mas. But the situation is this Saturday I also have to attend the event." Jelita said very slowly.

"What way?" asked Gavin, with a full glance.

"Emm, that .. the thanksgiving event, yes the thanksgiving event. The owner of my subscription cafe, held an event, had dinner with the employees because the cafe is growing rapidly. I had promised to come, so if I didn't, I wouldn't feel good" Jelita said, choosing to lie.

"Oh, like that? yeah, it's okay. Me and Reynaldi will be going together,"

"Mas isn't angry, is he?" ask Jelita to make sure.

"angry? why should I be angry? now I want to go to the room first, I want to take a shower and go to sleep. Good night!" Gavin stood up and immediately stood up leaving Jelita.

Meanwhile, Jelita looked at her husband's departure with a look that felt bad.

Well, how come I'm being so wrong, huh?" jelita's mind while scratching his head that does not itch at all.

Meanwhile, Gavin in the room threw his body on the bed and

take the phone out of my pocket.

He then contacted Reynaldi.

"Yes, Vin?" reynaldi's voice came from the other end.

"Rey, I don't think I'm going to the reunion, you go alone!" gavin sounded uninspired.

"Why? doesn't Jelita want you to take her?" guess Reynaldi.

"Hm. He said he had an event that day" Gavin said softly.

"If he doesn't come, we can go together, Vin. Please, I don't want to, go there alone, too" said Reynaldi, who sounded like he really wanted to attend the event.

"Why do you want to be present so much? is it because you still can't forget him?" guess Gavin didn't get Reynaldi's answer.

"Actually not because you haven't forgotten, but more curious to see what he is now," replied Reynaldi, while remembering the face of the woman who was his first love in High School.

"Yes, for your sake, I'm coming" Gavin concluded.

"That's dong!" reynaldi said, sounding happy. "Oh yeah, Vin did Denis send you a message? he said he had managed to invite the woman to accompany him this Saturday," Reynaldi continued.

"Yes, I know! he also sent me a message" replied Gavin.

"What I don't think about, the extreme way she was, so that the woman felt indebted, and finally wanted to accompany her, she was really desperate, Vin." Reynaldi clucked while shaking his head. Even though Gavin can't see the hood of his best friend.
