Replying to the Betrayal of my Husband
Corruptions

18

Being at Dimas' house even just for one night makes me awkward. After a short chat last night I didn't ask much about Dimas' life. The opposite is true with Dimas. The man immediately told me to rest after we had dinner together.

I don't know what Dimas' life was like. All I know is that everyone has their own business. And right now my life's affairs are very complicated and almost destroyed.

This morning I was excited to get up. Receiving office facilities became the first thing I chose. Lucky Dimas let me not enter the office today so I could freely have time to review the house and take care of Susan's school transfer.

"The car's ready, ma'am. My mother's bag was also taken to the car."

The words of the housekeeper managed to confuse me. I had just finished my breakfast and intended to leave. But, I didn't realize that my bag had moved.

"What's the car for?"

"Mr says, mom's bike is still in the workshop. So, my father told me and the driver between the mother of the house who wanted to stay. Later let me take care of the house and some mother's clothes are still wet."

"Not bother. Let me find a taxi." I'm not happy to accept it.

"It's okay, Mom. This is my job. I focus on school, adek. If you bother to let Adek at home with me."

I breathed not knowing what to do now. What he said was true too. I know Susan's confused right now and I can't possibly take her to and fro.

"Mother... Dad's got a call, right?" Susan asked suddenly. His face looked very lethargic.

"Nothing, dear." I answered softly while enduring the pain. In fact, after this betrayal Susan still wishes her father had called.

"Let's go, Mom. Susan wants to see a new home and school." Susan moved from her seat. "Mom can't be sad, yeah."

I don't know why this kid is so mature in his thinking, even so I know his heart is very broken now. Warm and mutually reinforcing hugs that can make us feel better.

***

I didn't know what Dimas thought of me until the man gave us a home. The one-story house with 3 bedrooms inside became my new residence with Susan. Susan's school files have also begun to be taken care of. And Susan doesn't mind if she has to change schools.

"Dayu, can I ask 'no?"

Dayu stopped her job drying clothes and asked, "What is that, Mom?"

"I think I should buy some new office clothes. Tapui, Susan's sleeping. If I could take Susan for a second, yeah."

"Ah, what's wrong. It's safe, Mom. I've been told here I was told by Mr. Dimas to help the mother take care of the Adek."

I'm glad to hear that. Finally I say goodbye and again forced to be delivered a driver.

The mall became my destination this afternoon. Forced to use Susan's savings to buy some of my and Susan's needs. A moment to forget my husband's betrayal by shopping and indulging.

"Hair is trimmed a little so it looks fresh, Ma'am. Ma'am pretty loh but if his hair is really long and not diligently taken care of so it looks older his face," said salon employees who I asked for an opinion.

"How good is it that is important I can be comfortable if I work later" I replied while looking at my face in the mirror.

"Cus we start. I'm guaranteed not to be disappointed."

I resigned when the sharp scissors began to work. It is not just the hair that is targeted. My hands and feet now look shiny.

"Well, it's fresher. His face is also, yes, Ma'am. Luckily, the skin is not recalcitrant, so that rarely to the salon but the skin is still smooth. We make thin makeup, let's be beautiful."

I nodded in agreement. And a few moments later my appearance was different from before. The hair that was straight now dicurly hangs on the shoulder. My face also looks brighter with thin red lips.

Have the driver take you to X custody immediately. There's something you have to do and I'm waiting for you here.

Dimas???

Why did Dimas ask me to the company? Isn't that the office where bang Rama works? If I go there it means that I will meet with the traitors and actors who become managers there. I have to mentally prepare myself to face them.

With just jeans and a pink shirt I'm leaving. I don't want Dimas to wait too long to change his clothes again.

After traveling less than thirty minutes I arrived at the building where my husband had been making his living. The husband will soon be the ex-husband. Huh, I feel like I want to avoid any intrusion with him, but who would have thought the job requires me to be here. I hope I don't see those two faces.

"Mother Rima from the central company, right?" The receptionist's question made me dumbfounded to hear it. "Let me drive back, Mr. Dimas is waiting in his room."

"The room of Mr Dimas?" I wanted to make sure that my guess was wrong. Is Dimas my husband's boss, too?

"Didn't you know that this office is a subsidiary of Mr. Dimas' company?"

I'm clinging to disbelief. I was half-dead. It means that bang Rama and Citra's subordinates Dimas are also the same as me now.

"I'm still new."

"Oh, my pantesan has never seen Ma'am" he replied as he led the way.

Obviously no one recognized me. Because, all this time bang Rama never took me to the office event.

"This is Mr Dimas' room?" I asked after being right in one of the rooms whose doors were still closed and until now I did not see the Rama and Citra bang.

"Yes, I think Mr. Dimas' mood is not okay. From earlier the inn wants to rampage. So, I hope you don't make mistakes either."

I gulped to moisten my suddenly dry throat. I've never seen Dimas angry, even so good to me and Susan. I suddenly wondered what made Dimas so angry.

The door opened from the inside before we knocked. "Why just stand here?" ask the man who is standing in front of me. His face looked crumpled and red. Right, he's in motion.

"Sorry, Sir...." I answered while bowing my head, so I was afraid to see Dimas's face.

"Come in" said Dimas, shifting until I could freely pass him. However, my steps came to a halt when I saw two people already in Dimas' room.

"Why Rima? Do you know them?"

Dimas' question made the two men realize my existence.

Rama and Citra looked surprised to see me. Likewise with me who was fixated on seeing the husband and the actor.

"I asked you to come over to check the finances. I'm guessing someone misused their position to dare to corrupt my company." Dimas said furiously while looking at Citra and bang Rama who had lowered his head did not dare to look at me like before.
