Should We Divorce?
28

Early in the morning around fifty o'clock, Ares looks new to his residence. He opened the door very lethargic and very tired. His steps were not as wide as usual. Seen several times he was like holding back pain when climbing stairs.

Arriving in the room, he did not meet Serena there. He guessed Serena was on the walk closet getting ready for the office.

As if completely limp, Ares threw his suit carelessly. He sat on the side of the bed with both hands resting on his heavy head. The man closed his eyes holding back. Her body is not good.

"****. It's so dizzy." Mumbled whispering.

Ares intended to rub his sore nape, but he jumped in shock when another hand touched him first. The man looked up surprised to find Serena, who was ready in her office clothes, standing looking at him in panic.

"Res, your body is hot." Serena is still fumbling around the nape of Ares to the neck.

Ares was silent. He was staring at Serena who looked so beautiful this morning. Just a formal white shirt and a black skirt as knees indeed. But the allure of Serena indeed cannot be underestimated. Nothing should be enough. Moreover, plus office clothes like this, the aura is increasingly undefined. Looks more firm and authoritative but warm.

"You sick?" Serena asked worriedly.

Buyar had thoughts of wandering Ares when Serena asked him. He tried to control his face again that looked stupid. The man wiggled his shoulders to let the touch of Serena on his shoulder slip. "No."

"But your body is hot, you know."

"Not to overdo it, huh."

"You're really hot. I can be rasain, huh." Serena's hand was brushed aside by Ares, not even touching her forehead.

"Don't touch me. Don't look for opportunities."

"I didn't get a chance, Res. Just want proof if your body is hot or not."

Ares clucked. "Whispering. I'm not sick." When he intended to rise, his body was even limp until it almost fell.

Serena caught him. Make their eyes unwilling to look at each other deeply. The distance of the two bodies that are quite close makes their heart beats unnoticed. Again a scene like a soap opera is created between the two. Scenes that usually make viewers scream with anxiety at the soap opera actor.

Some time passed, Serena was the one who first cut her eyes off. The woman cleared her throat by throwing her wrong face.

"You can't believe I said it hurt. Almost fell down, right?" He said while trying to focus on getting Ares to sit back.

The one in the back sat down and looked at Serena as stupid as before. He looked at her as if the figure whose body was half bent in front of him was an angel messenger. He did not blink and would not blink.

While the figure that became the object of Ares's eyeball looked uncomfortable. His left hand was still hooked at Ares' waist. While on his left shoulder, there is Ares' hand that runs at home to make their face very close to the position of Serena's body leaning forward.

Jesus, Re, what position is this?!!!!

The woman tore in the heart as Ares' gaze grew more intense. He was not strong to be looked at so lovingly, even though that was actually the gaze he missed the most. He squeaked carefully; "Res."

"Yes, Sayan----

Serena was stunned to hear that word again. Though it is spoken in the word that is not yet finished, but he knows what Ares will say. Seen from Ares' expression that turned startled, it seemed like the man was speechless.

"T-hands.. You, Res."

Spontaneous Ares turned to see where Serena's glance was. Turns out his fucking hand's still on Serena's shoulder. What a shame dominating him at this moment. It's almost the release of talking to call dear. And now especially? As quickly as possible she pulled her hand made Serena secretly feel relieved and straightened her body again.

"Uhm.. if so. ak-aku."

"Not to."

"Why?"

"Because I don't want you to take care of it. Wanna?"

Serena was stunned for a while with a ditching heart. He then sighed violently while smiling blandly. "okay."

Ares swallowed his own saliva as he watched Serena exit the room just like that. His eyes flickered innocently as there was a hint of guilt appearing in his heart. Is it possible that Serena was offended by her rejection just now?

"So doang persuaded him." He grumbled a little to cover up the discomfort of his heart.

Then a long sigh rang out from Ares' mouth. The man grabbed back his suit and took a tape recorder from Anye last night. He weighed the voice recorder in both hands with a look of despair.

The long night he looked for Anye almost circled all over Jakarta. Run like a lost person and be the center of attention at the airport. Rela left his stomach empty all day, until finally his own body was exhausted and even unable to just step on the pedal of the car. Forced last night his only two hours of sleep occurred in his range rover.

The man threw the original tape recorder and then sighed violently while throwing his body also on the bed. He stared blankly at the ceiling of his room. All he needs now is sleep. And what happened was that his brain would not stop thinking.

• • • • •

Ares squirmed slowly his body that felt very sore. The man looked at the clock on the wall in his room. It turns out it's eight in the morning. That means he's been asleep for two more hours - or more precisely asleep.

With his head still heavy, the man straightened his body. Sorting his temples at a glance, then shaking his head shooing away dizzy. He forced himself to get out of bed. Walk a little stagger towards the balcony of his room.

When the balcony door opened, fresh air immediately greeted him. The man closed his eyes for a moment while breathing in the air which made his dizzy slightly subside. Ares looked around his housing complex while holding on to the iron barrier. It felt like he had not felt this calm for a long time.

He reached into his pants pocket and picked up a box of cigarettes. Actually he does not like to smoke, just a few times if you are thinking a lot. And unfortunately, lately he is often faced with problems, so the intensity of smoking is increasing.

Ares slipped a cigarette between his lips and started to ignite the fire as Serena's hand snatched the cigarette from his mouth. Ares looked sharply. And Serena was even blatantly looking at him defiantly.

"What the fuck?"

"You're smoking too" he answered casually, glaring at Ares. Then the woman chuckled small while pulling a chair available on her balcony which is quite spacious. "Handler."

"You are back." Ares reached out to Serena who was busy arranging the bowl and glass on the table.

"What?" Ask without looking.

"What you take."

"You mean it?" Serena looked up plainly which made Ares again round his eyes. "Yes.seinget I am your heart that I have taken."

Ares closed his eyes. "Don't mess around. Give it back."

"Don't want to" he answered short, then continued the activity of arranging tableware. "You alone have not given your heart to me? And now I don't want to go back."

In silence Ares growled. He grabbed Serena's chin and it made Serena look up at him. Again the same thing happened. Something like this morning. Now the difference is Ares whose body is half bent in front of him, while Serena sits stiff.

"smoking. Give me back the cigarette." Ares's whispering rambles, making Serena hold her breath for a moment. Ares' left hand resting on the round table, crept closer to the location of the cigarette box that Serena placed near a glass of water. Serena did not know what she was doing behind her back.

He smirked a little because he managed to fool Serena and caught her cigarette box. As Ares was about to lift the box, Serena's hand rested on top of his. Ares looked up and found Serena smiling triumphantly.

"Sit down." Tell Serena while shaking her chin pointing at the empty seat next to her.

Ares' jaw tightens. The man straightened his body with a red face. "Don't you dare rule me."

"Say she wants her cigarette back, right?" Ares stared at his cigarette box that Serena was brandishing. "Sit or did I throw away the cigarette?"

"Dispose. I can buy the factory." And then while intending to leave.

Just one step away, Serena's hand had already restrained her pace. The woman got up from her seat and placed both her hands on the chest of the black shirt-clad field. Without fear he pushed Ares back slowly until he sat in the chair.

"To be seated is hard." His smile mocked as he stroked Ares' cheek for a moment.

Ares' body completely turned stiff. He could not believe that the figure who had sat back in the chair next to him was Serena. What's wrong with him today? Why is Serena so brave?

"You're sick again, Res. Can't do much smoking. That's why I confiscated the cigarettes."

"I don't like it you set up! Want me to get sick again, want me to

"Sssstttt," Serena placed her index finger on Ares' lips. "This is me making soup. You're sick when you don't like to eat porridge, do you?"

"Oh if diem means I want a bribe."

Ares's hand caught Serena's hand lifting a spoon in front of her lips. "You sick?"

Serena was stunned for a moment, before finally chuckling. "I'm healthy, really. Just because my husband is sick, so I'm in pain too. Maybe that's the same time people say the inner bond of husband and wife."

"I'm serious."

"me too. Who said kidding? You don't know if every wife must feel the same pain if her husband is sick," then Serena rests her chin on the table and brings her face closer to Ares. "I'm the same as you."

Ares was wrong to look at Serena's big smile. The man suddenly could not control himself. Plus Serena was more and more purposefully looking at him seductively.

"Snack." Ketus Ares on Serena. Then to cover up his misdeeds, Ares scavenged a cup of tea on the table.

Byuuuurr!!!

"Don't drink it, Res. The tea is still hot."

The man rounded his eyes shortly after the hot tea water spurted. Goddamnit! Intention to look cool even humiliated like this. He then turned to Serena who just sounded like his teasing rather than worrying about him.

"You know me?" The accusation.

The accused even shook his head while holding a twitch on his lips. "No."

"This is the evidence?"

"What evidence? If I want to know you, I told you to drink from last time. But is this you who drinks alone? So where was my fault?"

Ares's hands clenched in annoyance. This woman is really draining patience.

"Nih drink let her tongue not blister," Ares stared at the glass of water that Serena was proffered to be alert. "Silent. It's not hot, though. I'm sure I won't spray anymore."

Both of Ares' eyebrows raised. "You're cheating on me?"

"Geez my husband, yes" Serena shook her head. "In addition to being fierce and chatty, it turns out the baperan as well. Just have a drink. Safe, really."

Ares had time to ogah-ogahan to take the glass. But his hot, numb tongue could not be ignored. Mr. Risjad with his exorbitant prestige grabbed Serena's sodoran while glancing. Serena did not even bother and just smiled a little.

"Now eat yes. I'm bribe. Aaaa."

"Who said I wanted to eat? You didn't hear me say I didn't want you to run?"

"Keep taking care of who, dong? The doctor? The nurse? Dare to be injected with the same medicine?"

"You tuh---

"Let's eat. If I don't call an ambulance."

Ares's self is inflamed. Heart growls. He was trying to hold back his teeth. But he can't do anything anymore. So, again he lost. He was forced to obey the orders of a Lady Serena Raharja Risjad.

"Enak, right?"

So yummy. "Don't know."

"Squeaky. People you eat, really. Time doesn't know what it's like."

"Forgot my tongue just burned?" Ask Ares nyolot.

Serena shook her shoulders indifferently without saying anything and fed Ares again. I don't know why Ares feels Serena is a little moody. Is this because he doesn't praise his cooking?

"Enak. A little." Praise Ares with lips docked and while chewing. Making his compliment was almost inaudible.

But in fact, Serena's ears are still very normal to catch the voice of Ares' prestige. He also smiled happily.

Drrrrtt. Drrrrrr.

The sound of the vibration of Ares' cell phone made the man immediately reach into his left pocket. It was obvious that he could not wait to find out who had contacted him, and that was enough to catch Serena's attention. On his screen Ares saw the name of the caller he had been waiting for. But before receiving it, he glanced at Serena who was also staring at him. There was a hint of unease from Ares' gaze, but he really couldn't bear to not lift it.

Tell.

The name you mentioned

not listed in

flight to Singapore or

Hong Kong, Sir

That answer was enough to make Ares petrified. Heart ditches. He no longer knew where to find Anye.

No more tasks for

me, Sir?

Yep.

That short answer cut off the phone connection between Ares and his confidant. The man suddenly remained silent. He was desperate and it made Serena not miss to notice him.

"You think there's a problem again." Cetus Serena relaxed as she lowered her head to stir the soup in her hands.

Ares turned his head to look at Serena. Without voice and speech. There was only a flat yet warm gaze.

"Whatever the problem is, don't think too much. You're sick again. Mending focused on recovery and getting plenty of rest" Serena raised her head again with a faint smile. "Eat again. It's over."

"The one."

"Yes already. This Abis you rest. You look tired until your eyes are marsupial. Definitely lack of sleep, huh. Where are you going to not go home and lack of sleep?"

"It's none of your business." Keto.

Serena took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Trying to cover up his sadness, he smiled faintly and got up from his seat. Facing Ares does require a lot of patience. He also cleaned up Ares' cutlery and intended to leave.

"Where?" Ask Ares for wonder. But still implied the tone of his prestige.

Serena looked at me in silence. Not intending to answer with words.

"Riggers? Want to go to work?"

"No. I don't work today."

"Why?"

"It's none of your business," he sat down with Serena, then suddenly yelled ignorant. "Handler." The answer that is able to make Ares's look that had stiffened so slack again.

"You want to answer me?"

Serena nodded casually. "I don't work because I want to take care of my husband who is sick again. Can't I live with my husband alone? No one is running. And again," Serena paused for a bit and looked more serious this time. "Watch this attention my efforts to nyicil all the time I've wasted by ignoring you. I'm gonna pay for it now, Res. I'll try to give you back the five years I spent without seeing how much you love me."

Without warning and without permission, Serena kissed Ares one by one very gently. "Good break, Res."

While down there, in a black CRV car, there was a warm smile staring at the two lovebirds.

"I didn't expect Ares' progress to change again would be so fast, Re. Even though you don't know I'm the mastermind of all this, but I'm glad your happiness is coming back faster. I'm so happy, Serena."
