Patience of the Second Wife
Resignedly

Wanting to get Alan's love is like reaching for the sun that according to Dinda, the woman now threw away her desire to be able to win the heart of her husband, maybe yesterday was the last she expected a wish from Alan, Alan, and promised not to repeat it again, because he did not want to be disappointed for the last few times.

A little late, that's Dinda this morning because last night was busy opening gifts from her in-laws and brother and sister-in-law.

''On the morning of her brother, Ma'am, '' pulled up the chair and took the plate, Dinda tried to forget the bitter incident yesterday and showed her a smile that showed off her shag teeth and dimples.

Staring at Dinda Bi Romlah distress just ran to help her take the side dish.

''Ma kasih Bi, '' smiled again, while Syntia and Alan just glanced at it without saying a word.

Why do I feel guilty about Dinda, Alan's inner self.

The man chewed his food slowly while looking at Dinda who ate with her voraciously, ignoring the Syntia who had been watching him.

''Is there something strange about me?'' dinda said without stopping her eating.

Alan didn't answer just to cleared his throat, I don't know what it means that Dinda doesn't want to care too much about her husband.

''Mas, I go first yes,'' kiss Alan's cheek and pass, now Alan and Dinda who are at the dinner table, silent, both of them do not talk to each other, they are not talking to each other, only the thump of spoons and plates sounded.

''You why?'' alan asked without looking.

Dinda put her spoon and fork slowly.

''Why do you have to ask, I do not why napa, I am just happy to get a special gift from mama, papa, Bang Faisal and also mbak Amel, bi Romlah and others,'' said Dinda with ease.

Alan who heard feeling insinuated because among the people closest to Dinda only himself who did not give anything on his wife's birthday even Alan canceled a request so simple from Dinda.

''I left,'' without looking at him again Alan stepped foot towards the main door.

''You know, until when our relationship is like this, sister, I also want to be like other women in love if her husband wants to work, and welcome when you come home, but what, what, all this time I was just a statue in this house.''

''Bi,'' call Dinda again when all is gone, and now it's just him and his housekeeper.

''Yes non, need something more?''

''No, I just want to have my aunt accompany me in the room, I want to finish the stitching of the clothes that I have already cut, '' he said grabbing Bi Romlah's hand.

''Well non, with pleasure, will help Aunt, if Non needs aunt to buy something Aunt is also ready, ''' Bi Romlah deliberately offered pity see Dinda who never found her happiness.

After the two in the room, Dinda re-unpacked the semi-finished clothes from her crackle bag, while Bi Romlah looking for the rest of the bead that will be on the pair.

''Non, how come nothing is the same huh, stick the buttons and the cloth?''

''Yesterday I did not buy Bi, because Mbak Amel hunted, can aunty buy it now?'' taking the wallet in the drawer, the rest of the money is still there, so Dinda does not have to bother taking at the ATM.

''Can non, which gi?'' ask Bi Romlah seriously, afraid of being wrong.

Dinda stared at the screen of her phone and thrust towards Bi Romlah.

''Not long ago, Bibi will be back soon.'' received money from Dinda.

As soon as Bi Romlah, Dinda called bang Faisal telling him that he took money from him.

Although Faisal repeatedly said it was okay, in fact Dinda also felt bad, because at this time he was no longer the responsibility of Faisal, but fully the responsibility of Alan.

Upon arrival at the office Alan was a little dazed by what Dinda said earlier, true what the woman said, she said, at the age of marriage that almost five months Alan never gave anything to Dinda, and the words of the wife this morning made him realize, if he had ignored the woman.

''Al,'' Faisal's voice from behind shocked Alan who was wandering with his brain.

''You, no matter who, ''' with a nervous tone Alan replied.

Faisal frowned, ''You are why, sick?'' put the back of his hand on Alan's forehead.

''No, just tired,'' stroking the nape of his neck.

Hearing Alan's explanation, Faisal laughed out loud.

''Yes, Dinda also said that, tired he said, the way to anywhere, Dinda must trouble you, he was spoiled, but I salute, it turns out that behind his innocence he was so mature, he was so old, even she can also be your wife well said Faisal who is now sitting in front of Alan.

What Faisal meant, did he not know that yesterday I was the same Dinda did not become the way, do not Dinda who said and covered everything.

Alan who smiled clumsyly was confused to answer what, because all day he did not leave the room, what else went out of the house and Alan did not see the counting rod Dinda at that time.

''Muter just muttered on the highway,''' finally the answer that slid, enough to fool his sister-in-law.

''That's what he likes, the road, if in the village he sees the sunset on the hill, a day just do not see, I must be the victim of his rampage.'' Now Faisal even remembered that time, a time where his sister was very cheerful, no problems hit, and no sadness struck.

But now it is different, since marriage the girl is always bathed in tears that none of her family knows.

I want to see when I hide all this, what if Faisal knows, if yesterday I did not walk and just wait for Syntia at home.

More dizzy Alan, but still, the man looked ordinary in front of Faisal.

''Here I bring the report yesterday when you do not enter, there is a shipment of materials from abroad, and later there will be a cloth deposit to the company Aunt Yanti.'' Pointing out some of the maps from earlier filled his hand.

Not wanting to waste time, Alan immediately checked the documents from his brother-in-law once gus his secretary.

''Alright, if it's the afternoon of the meeting agenda, we will hook the company mama to be our support, now you come out I want to be alone,''' move from his chair to his private room.

While the unsuspecting Faisal went straight out into his room.

Alan threw his body on the soft mattress, his brain chaotic between regret and feeling guilty to Dinda.

''What I've been doing all this time is outrageous, what he's suffered so much with my treatment, but no, he's just a third person who dares to go into my life and Syntia, and that's what he has to bear.''

Not wanting to dissolve in his brain to and fro, Alan woke up again to focus on work.
