Sorry your Husband I Borrowed
Distrusting

Lately, I like to be lazy to enter the office. Forced permission again same boss. Fortunately he was kind and understanding of my problem.

''Can we meet?''

Confused what I would answer. Because I really don't want to meet people anymore. Wanna be alone.

''Please just give me a minute. I have something to say, important!'' boss Robert said.

I finally accepted her request. In fact, I have permission not to enter the office, uh so I have to go to the office, today.

Halfway through, he chatted me again. He asked to meet at one of the seafood restaurants. He said he hasn't had lunch.

"Thank God, don't go to the office. Very lazy, if asked to accompany a meal. No appetite anymore, though. But, it's okay, rather than being accused of being against the boss, I was forced to obey what the boss wants one.

''I'm on the way to the Kaliandra restaurant. Ten more minutes, until.''

I just read the chat without me retaliating. But he was angry if I didn't reply. Even if it is one letter, it must be answered. If not reciprocated, it can rampage along the memory lane. Ahahaha!

Bener right! Unrequited, he immediately rampaged. He called me!

''Dear Mr. Robert, I have read the message, now I am also on the way, '' I replied, and he did not speak behind his phone.

I wasn't done talking, he hung up. You weird boss!

***

In less than 15 minutes, I got there. I looked for him to sit where. Hm. Good riddance!.

''I was lazy to eat, I said to him.

''Cannot do. He had to eat, he said forcing me.

Before long, a servant came towards us. He handed me his food menu book, then recorded some orders of me and boss Robert.

''I want to eat lightly, '' I said.

''Give him krupuk, Dik!'' chirps boss Robert.

''Ahahahahahahah. What the hell!'' call me sewot.

''Yes, it is light!'' said joking.

I chose empek-empek because in the menu book there is a padek-empek food.

''I drank some ice tea, yes, I said to the servant boy.

''Same with the menu!'' call boss Robert.

''What. The menu is the same as me!'' my protest.

''Can't. There is a ban, if the menu is the same!'' call him replace sewot.

A few minutes later, our order arrived. I still haven't touched it. He just looked at me too.

''So, we are silent?'' said.

''Ya already. Come maem. I am, actually, lazy to eat. Because I want to dream again.'' I said.

''Fantasize? Imagining what? Married me?'' ask him to tease me.

''Ahaha. Just delicious. GR really is the boss of this one.''

''I want to go on holiday to Bali, '' I said.

''Hm. How much does it cost to go there, '' he asked as if he would give money to me. Turns out he was just asking.

''Patience yes. Wait for my 13th salary out.''

''Ahahahahahah. Kirain wants to be given money now. This is waiting for the 13th salary. If you are waiting for the 13th salary, why. Mending used his own money.'' My protest again.

''Yes, patient, dear. I'm trying. My salary, my allowance, is already in the hands of my house, '' said boss Robert seriously.

''Ih...what the hell!'' call me.

''Patience yes. Later I will try, if there is liquid project money, I love you.'' he assured me and I just kept quiet.

***

Yeah, at Gadjah's cafe. Robert's boss' favorite place to be alone.

''This is where I meditate. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!'' jest.

''Ahaha. The semedi?'' I said laugh it off.

''Really ''Yes. If I have a job headache, I will definitely go to this cafe. This cafe is in the middle of the forest, and rarely affordable by most people. There are villas. You can spend the afternoon here, if you want. Just say the same to me, I take you here, '' he said at length.

''Hmmm. Keep going, while I sleep, raided your wife, Mas. Uh, Bang aja!'' call kidding.

''No. ''No. My wife, I never brought her here, said Boss Robert assured me.

For a time, I believed his confession. Maybe, there is a point, his wife does not know where he ran if again dizzy at work.

''Next week, may I come here.'' I said ask permission.

''Can, darling. When do you want, I'll take you.''

''Seriously yes.'' I'm excited.

''Yes. What the hell is not for you, the beautiful love of my heart, he said adoring me.

''Now answer my question honestly!'' he said he suddenly switched the conversation.

''What. Ask what. I must have answered honestly?'' I said challenge him.

''First, what's wrong with your husband!'' tanyanya wants to know.

''No need to talk about my husband.'' I said evasively.

''Please be honest with me. Honestly I'm sad to see you like now!'' said.

''No. ''No. I'm fine actually. Yesterday, it was just a misunderstanding. Rather than emotions, I better run, I explained to him.

''Don't lie. I know you have a problem with your husband. I'm sorry I interfered too much with your personal affairs.'' he said.

Yep....God, I have to tell you the truth. Because I am not strong enough to keep it to myself.

''My husband...'' said I started the story.

''But, promise yes do not let this story know with others.'' I said asking for certainty to him.

''Yes. I promise.'' said he.

But, before I could go any further on my husband, I could not continue.

''No. ''No. Winona. Don't tell me your husband's disgrace!'' his word forbids.

For a moment I was silent, then I couldn't hold back my tears.

''Already, if you don't want a story now, that's fine, baby, '' he said as he clasped my hand tightly.

''I'm sorry I made you sad.'' he admitted.

Honestly, I actually wanted to tell a story. But I can't tell you more.

***

All day, I was with him. He gave me comfort. I don't think I know that he actually has someone else.

''Bang ''Bang. Sorry, I took your time today. Thank you, for today, I said as she drove me in front of the house.

Arriving home, Mas Arga did not care about me at all. In fact, he didn't ask, who was I being driven home with, why did I make it to night?

''Ah ''Ah. Let alone. Whether he cares or not is his business. I'm the one who likes lebai, ask to be noticed. I am no longer needed, just like him, I thought, with a sore heart.

I went straight into the room, changed into one-stringed nightgown. He also did not look at me at all. I see, my daughter has fallen asleep in her room.

''I'm sorry mom, son, I said as I stroked her hair, teary-eyed.

''O God, give me the strength to raise my son. My husband doesn't care about me anymore, God. Give me the strength to live my life now, '' muttered me silently crying as much as I could.(***)
