Not the Idle Wife
Battered

Gavin and Jelita have now arrived at their apartment. The clock on the wall already shows at 23pm West Indonesia time.

Gavin, seen counting down 11 hours from 23 p.m.

"Emm, in Canada it's still 12 noon, which means Denis must be awake. I'd better call him first," Gavin's inner voice as he reached into his cell phone from his pocket.

"Honey you go into the room first yes, I want to contact Denis first. I want to know how far the fight has gone. Whether he has managed to melt Denis heart or not" said Gavin while peeping the top of his wife's head.

"Hmm, but I want to know too, honey," Jelita's face looked clear.

"It's late at night, you look tired. You take it easy, later I'll tell you what we're talking about," Gavin told Jelita, whose spending has recently increased by 99 degrees, than usual. The woman, looks very eager to be close to him continuously. But that certainly does not make Gavin feel uncomfortable, instead he really likes the spoiled attitude of his wife. Even at certain moments, Gavin felt a little troubled by the attitude of his wife.

"Yes, that's it! I'm going in first, honey. Remember when you're done talking to Denis, you're right after me to the room,"

"Yes, Honey!" back Gavin gave a brief peck at the top of his wife's head.

After Jelita entered the room, Gavin immediately made a call with Denis, according to what he said to his wife. Sure enough, just connected for a few seconds, Denis's voice was heard from the other end of the phone.

"How, Den, have you succeeded?" there was a heavy sigh from the other end, and from what he heard, without even saying, Gavin could already guess that Denis was still unsuccessful.

"I don't know anymore, Vin how to melt his heart. I seemed to want to give up, but somehow when I imagined him with another man, I was not willing and my heart ached" Denis said softly.

"That means you already love him," said Gavin, confident as well as relieved. For some reason even though he knows Jelita now loves him, there is still a fear that arises in Gavin's heart, if Denis intends to take Jelita from him.

"Do you think so?" there was doubt from Denis' tone of voice.

"Yes, I'm pretty sure, because I feel the same way. I tried to imagine Maya, I felt that my heart was not shaking anymore. I wish you were, too,"

"You're right, Vin. These two weeks, I never thought of Jelita again, but the face of the woman who always came to my mind was always Bella's face" Denis replied, which made Gavin breathe a sigh of relief.

"So how? are you giving up?" ask Gavin to make sure.

"Of course not! I will continue to fight for his love. But, now that I'm really confused, it's been too long since I left the cafe,"

"You take it easy, the cafe's business is in order. I've sent one of my confidants to manage your Cafe for a while, and the profits remain in your account. The important thing now is that you have to keep the spirit up" Gavin said

"Well, thank you, Vin! you are the best!" said Denis, who immediately felt one of his burdens go away.

"Denis, do you want to hear my advice?" gavin suddenly said.

"What advice? if it's good, why not?"

Gavin finally laid out his plan.

"Well, I think your idea was good. Why am I not thinking?" denis's voice sounded happy from the other end, very inversely proportional to the tone of voice at the beginning of answering the phone.

"OK, you keep fighting, good luck. I closed the phone first, I'm so tired of it," Gavin decided on the call after Denis agreed from the other end.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

Gavin went into the room and saw that his wife was still awake and seemed to be waiting for him.

"Well, baby?" jelita asked as she watched Gavin who was busy removing his tie and watch.

"Wait for you," Jelita replied in a spoiled tone.

"Yes I've been to the bathroom, cleaned for a while and changed clothes first yes," Jelita nodded her head, saying yes.

No need to wait a long time, Gavin came out of the bathroom already changing clothes with his sleeping pajamas. Then the man climbed into the bed and as usual the man immediately hugged Jelita and stroked her back.

Jelita's breathing now sounds regular, a sign that the woman is asleep.

"So soon as he slept," Gavin's mind as he kissed the wife's forehead that was getting here looked very beautiful in his eyes. If you don't know that his wife is tired, it feels like she pounced on his wife.

Gavin looked back at Jelita's face with a sad look. It was as if there was a big mistake that he had made that caused the fear of losing his wife.

"I'm sorry, honey! I hope you will never leave me and not believe anything people say about me, " whispered Gavin even though he knew that Jelita would not hear what she said.

...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...

The sun in Canada has now begun to leave the horizon, and called his companion the moon and stars to immediately replace his duties.

The clock is now waiting at 18:00 Canada time. Bella is confused to see no signs of cooking dinner. He who planned to cook was confused about what to cook, because suddenly the refrigerator was empty, and there was nothing to cook.

"Hmm, I'm hungry already, I seem to have dinner outside. Brother Brian and sister Jessie there is no sign of also coming out of the room, "inner Bella as she glanced towards her cousin's room.

"They why? are they fighting?" Bella is back in the monologue.

"Ah, no way! they were still friendly, "he thought it was back in his heart.

"Ah, I'd better go, '" muttered Bella as she walked back into her room, to pick up her bag. Then the woman went out.

Bella scrunched her forehead, when she saw that there was no car of her cousin's sister who usually at this hour was still parked in the yard.

"Where's the car? did they go to dinner without me? are they starting to feel like I'm a burden to them?" bella with a face that turns sad. For some reason, lately he's been very sensitive.

"I'd better rent an apartment tomorrow. I think they're gonna leave me here tonight on purpose without any food. This must be their way of gently driving me away,"

Bella finally decides to step out of the yard of the house, in search of a taxi.

Just as the woman came out of the yard, the woman was shocked by the gripping sight. He sees Denis the man he misses is being beaten up by some men. I don't know what happened Bella doesn't know.

"Hey, don't hit him! he could die!(in English)" cried Bella while trying to push the bodies of the men to get away from Denis's body that already looked weak helpless.

"What's wrong with him? why are you beating him?" Bella is crying hysterically.

"We suspect that he's willing to do something evil. From then on he paced back and forth and always looked towards the house. He must be a bad guy who wants to steal," replied one of the men.

"Don't just accuse! he's not a bad guy. I-i know him. Now what are you waiting for, please help me get him to the hospital, "The three men are finally apologizing, you know, and took the initiative to intercept the taxi and help Bella to get Denis into the taxi.
