The Bitter Three's
Again a Cunning Plan

"Can I follow you?" his Alwa hesitated.

"You're David's wife, aren't you? Or just resign there!"

"That's not how it is Sister Susaaaaaan, but I feel I know any reality that will not bring benefits, even make dizzy later,"

"What if you're tired of grooming, you're still being questioned?"

"Eh, hemm... Even more fortunate, he admitted," Alwa scratched his non-itchy head, he was once again confused.

"Sit down Alwa, it's interesting" Susan said.

Alwa, according to reluctant. He sat back.

"First question for Abi David Yudha" Susan said.

All tense is like following a life-betting quiz.

"Who was the first to take your virginity?"

"Huh?" grunts David.

The faces of Alwa and Hanifah were instantly red. It's embarrassing, but they want to know too.

"I know from a little investigation that your life in America is pretty wild, David. Until your Papa insists on pulling you back to Indonesia and has Suleyman persuade you,"

"Who is spreading this" grumbled David.

"Yes Papa you told my father who else!" Susan chuckles. "I heard again, what makes you unbothered is that they don't dare offend you, because you're the biggest donor to their charity. If you withdraw the donation, what will they want to feed the people?"

"Geez, you secretly stalker me yes" murmured David.

He does not like when his alms activities are known to others. And yes it is, he is the biggest supporter in his Papa charity foundation, also the main promoter of Suleyman's preaching activities.

"Therefore I immediately nicknamed you Mr. Sultan. So David, who took your virginity?" Susan repeated the question.

"You go first" David said to Susan.

"Why am I?!" Susan Protests.

"For me to be more comfortable opening up,"

"Hem," The woman sneered. But because his curiosity was so great, he gave up. "I lost my virginity when I was 16" Susan opened her secret.

All quiet. Susan's age at that time was the age when Alwa and Hanifah were forced. Automatic Alwa and Hanifah immediately remembered their past.

"At that time I was in High School, open BO to rich men is booming. I got 2 billion for my virginity. I bought you a gold bar, I still keep it today" Susan said.

David sneered, "You're really bad," he muttered unhappily.

"Varice is not important to me" Susan said.

"What's important to you?"

"It's important to me right now? FREEDOM," murmured Susan.

"Congratulations, you are dreaming. I'm not going to let you go, as badly as you are" David said.

"So, who took your virginity?"

"You,"

All quiet.

"What?" Hiss Susan.

"You took my virginity" said David.

All quiet again, trying flashback who knows someone missed. Niente.

"WHEN DAVID?!" exclaim Susan. "We haven't even made love that's really in, unless your pe**s went into my mouth last night!"

Alwa immediately dhikr.

Hanifah dizzy.

David chuckled, "Your mouth is guarded by dong, beautiful looks but the speech of the village," Susan grumbled

"Hooo is the real you, huh? This bike is your style of speech, huh? Hem! Just continue, big master, when have we met?!"

"Where do you remember? There are hundreds of men in your life. I'm not even sure you were conscious that night. I should have just put it inside so you're pregnant, '" murmured David.

Susan tilted her head while trying to remember. Again, there was no information about it in his brain. If he met a man as handsome as David, he would definitely remember, except ...

"I was drunk that night. Las Vegas's. About 2 years ago," It was as if Susan had gained enlightenment. "I was invited by one of my girlfriends to travel and visit our branch office for our wine production in Los Angeles. Then I got separated from him, my head was dizzy. Next thing I remember I was in a hotel room, at the Bellagio."

"Hem," David sneered. "When I get back to the room, you're gone,"

"I can't imagine me making love to a stranger! I tried to forget my carelessness! I don't even want to drink anymore because I get drunk easily! And again, what are you doing at the Bellagio?!"

"Business," David frowned. "And don't tell my father, don't tell anyone I've been to that area so often. Watch you!"

"Oh! I'm threatened!" susan couldn't believe it.

"Alwa and Hanifa, also do not spread the disgrace of your own husband" David said.

"Eeh-eh-eh-iya Abiii, uhuk!" Alwa fears namin quipped. Hanifah just bit her lips in worry. It's just the beginning, there's a lot left unanswered.

"When I saw you there, I was actually trying to remember where I had seen you before. Then I remembered that you were Mr. William's daughter. Actually I just came over to say hello. But it turns out you attacked me,"

"I attacked you?! What nonsense is this!" squeal Susan.

"The conclusion is so," David nodded confidently, but his eyes were full of ignorant impressions. "Since then I can't forget you. I tried to contact your Papa to approach you. Even though I was married to Alwa and Hanifa, I was still a virgin because .. I always avoided the first night,"

"It's crazy!"

"My feeling wasn't good about going to do it with a woman I didn't know, so after marrying Alwa and Hanifah, I ran away to Las Vegas on business grounds,"

"Abi's been there for two weeks, so Abi, that's cheating, you know," Alwa said.

"Yes, sorry," murmured David.

"I have been in many women without clothes, there is nothing I take. Because it feels weird to do it with strangers. Ohya, when I was desperate and started to forget about you, also because I felt guilty for betraying Alwa and Hanifah, uh even Papa you who approached. And here you are now" David grinned. "Indeed, if you're married, you're not going anywhere,"

Susan throws a cigarette butt from the ashtray at David in annoyance. The man dodged with a happy cry, looking at Susan's turmoil.

"Yes already! I really didn't think! Next question!!" susan was angry.

"Yes, yes" murmured David.

"But not for you" Susan continued.

Everyone raise their eyebrows.

"For Alwa and Hanifa. One by one, tell me honestly, do you love David as much as you love Suleyman,"

"That's an unfair question!" sahut Hanifah protest.

"I also want to hear" David said in support of Susan.

"Loh, we're all a little bit, know David's feelings" Susan said. "But I was curious about the true feelings of the two of you. You are like a heartless puppet, living day by day in monotony, serving the Abi with all your heart without asking questions, You are a wife or a servant of danger?"

David propped up his chin and nodded in agreement with Susan. They are waiting for the wives to answer.

It was unexpected that Hanifah and Alwa did not answer directly. They were also silent as if this tongue was so faint as to speak.

Bad omen.

Then Alwa's phone rang.

From Raka.

Alwa immediately picked him up, not even asking David's permission first.

"Mas Raka! Assalamu'alaikum Warahmatullahi Westarakatuh!" he looks cheerful, even his greeting is so complete as the greeting on the Eid al-Fitr card. "Oh yes Mas Raka is almost there? Oh my God it's still half seven Mas, the clinic hasn't opened yet Mas! Uh, going to Ancol first?! A lot of walking. There? Asikk Mau's! Want to! Oh, the clinic is near Ancol, huh? Okeee! I wait!!"

David snorted not happy to see it. "You've been dating Raka, torn all my good names in front of millions of people!" satire David.

"Huh?" Alwa immediately realized her mistake. "Eh a-anu Abi, if Abi is not pleased, I will immediately cancel,"

"I didn't tell you to keep your honor? But it looks like you've been planning to tarnish yourself huh? I can't ... "

"It's David, '" Cut Susan. "Whoever took Alwa for a walk. He could not even take the elevator by himself. He's been in a cage all this time,"

"Susan, it's none of your business. I'm her husband,"

Then David realized. "Aaah, I can already smell your plans, you sly woman. You mean to be evil, yes!"

"It's for my pride" Susan cuefully flicked her hair back.

"It doesn't work!"

"God has succeeded,"

"At this moment you call the name of the Almighty" David quipped.

"Rather than never mentioning?"

Alwa and Hanifah listened to the chatter as they turned their heads left and right like watching a badminton match.

"Anuuu, so can I go?" ask Alwa carefully, then.

"May go after the answer!" susan and David almost went together. Alwa jiper and immediately sat down again. Seemed scolded at once by their mother and father.

But why did the atmosphere become so familiar? Thought Alwa. He then glanced at his cousin, Hanifah, who still had her pouting face. It is dark and hateful. But that was the way Hanifa was before. When diomeli late Abah and his mother, the face of his lash feels burning.

Uh! Alwa misses the past. Miss Mom and Abah, miss Father and Mother Hanifah too. Alwa automatically read Al-Fatihah in the heart for those who go home first.

"I'm not going to answer that kind of question, it's just a trap. Sister Susan just wants to control Abi alone," Hanifah said.

David and Susan automatically glanced at each other. Then snort while smiling cynically.

"ah! That's how you feel. It's been answered, thank you," sizzled Susan.

David just sighed.

"I didn't answer anything" Hanifah was confused.

"Pah, if the game turns the word back, manipulates the intent and purpose, we are both heroes. We're business people, our work seduces and strategic consultants" Susan said.

"Then explain it in a language I understand" Hanifah said

Susan snorted, "If you really love David, you will definitely answer right away, Hanifah. Not that it's a trick question, anyway,"

Hanifah was silent while still pouting.

Everyone was silent waiting for Hanifah to continue her argument.

Replace now David who breathed a long sigh.

"If you were Alwa? How do you feel about me?"

"Eeemm, but a promise not to offend, huh Abi? Then don't be my bitch, either,"

"I promised I'd take responsibility for your lives, something like this wouldn't change that" David said.

"Yes, now I'm dragged into the responsibility, what bad are you?!" nagging Susan while muttering.

"And you're my wife" David smiled cunningly. Susan looked at him lazily.

In fact, here, the broadest heart is Susan. Let him help David bear Alwa and Hanifah, when normally they should not get along. On the lips say hate to David, but the one who gives the most attention is Susan.

"Me" Alwa seemed to be trying to pick out the words in the dictionary in her brain. While Hanifah stared intently at Alwa as if warning him not to talk carelessly.

"Sorry Brother Hani, I have to speak the truth. This kind of household is already unhealthy" Alwa said.

"Dad!" Hanifah tried to prevent.

"Abi," Alwa did not heed Hanifa. "I love Abi and Abi Suleyman. To me you two are my life saviors. I didn't have any feelings for Abi Suleyman. But that love comes over time, through his attention, through his affection, through his seduction, through his embrace. Abi Suleyman tried every day to melt my heart" said Alwa.

"However, sorry Abi. With Abi it is more respect. Not love. Sometimes, I'm afraid to talk to Abi. So afraid that he did not dare to protest. I was tired of that style" said Alwa.

Susan grinned amusedly.

David scrambled his black hair while smiling wryly.

"I understand Abi tried his hardest to be a husband according to religious rules, including not rejecting the invitation of the wife because the reward for us is very large and the legal obligation for the husband not to refuse when we ask. But Abi, how did Abi feel then? We don't want to ruin the mood. Because we need Abi. Not love, but need" said Alwa.

Hanifah immediately stood up, and walked into her room while crying.

But no one prevented it.

-----***-----

David grips the collar of Raka's shirt while dragging her into the back garden, when Raka has just arrived at David's house.

"Listen to the rascal," David sighed in a low voice. "Behold you hold Alwa. My mahram, but for Susan's sake, I allow you to walk alone, "groaned David.

Raka gulped.

"Good Sir. Promise," hissed Raka on guard.

"You touch him, you die. I'm serious" David said again.

"Eh, i-iya sir," muttered Raka. It feels like asking permission from the prospective in-laws to bring their children on a date.

While David is busy with Raka and Alwa, Susan knocks on Hanifah's room.

"You what?" muttered Hanifah with a face.

"You talk" Susan said with a smile.

"I have nothing to talk about" Hanifa said.

"You need to talk to someone who can come up with a solution. All this time your friends confided in you only Alwa. And I'm not your enemy,"

"Is right? I feel intimidated,"

"You know, I don't accept rejection. I'll keep pestering until you say 'yes', '" Susan said.

Hanifah sighed. That's true. He really needs to talk to someone.

So Hanifa let Susan into her simple room.

It was so simple that Susan suspected that Hanifa was not interested in anything. But he soon remembered that cooking was Hanifah's favorite. It is impossible to keep a collection of pans in the room.

"Speak, I'll hide what needs to be hidden from David" Susan said.

"Sir," Hanifah began to speak. "I need Abi to cover the sins I've committed in the world. It's not a matter of treasure. I also know that treasures can be sought. What Susan Ma'am felt was absurd, the problem of a wife's sin. If I am not married, the one who will bear my sins is the Father who died. He died when he had to be sinned? It's not fair, ma'am. So right, I need Abi. More precisely, I need a husband" Hanifah said.

Susan was silent. He had promised to listen to Hanifah and not cut off her words.

"The fact that Abi is so different from Abi Suleyman I can still stand it. I'm still patient. And very conscious since she interfered with Susan, Abi had a different eye twinkle from when she looked at us. But still Ma'am, I don't want to lose Abi. Although it must be tormented with a spicy mouth Sister Susan!"

And Hanifah threw away her face like a crumbling teenager.

Susan smile.

"In that case, we will be one-sided in competing. You're not my match,"

"Whatever!" grouse Hanifah.

"Do I teach you how to be balanced?"

Hanifa's eyes grew. "What else does Susan think?"

"For me, it's not exciting if I win a landslide. Match must be with a balanced opponent dong!"

"Then?"

"David likes smart, versatile, smart women and connects when spoken to about business because she's workaholic" Susan said.

"Yes, I know that too. But I'm just a junior high school graduate, where can I be accepted for a job?!"

"I have a job vacancy that requires your cooking skills, and you can also learn business by managing the business" Susan said.

"If Sister Susan is going to give me business capital, I'm sorry I can't. I haven't learned about trading and accounting. And I doubt yes, there are restaurants that want to accept Junior High graduates like me,"

"No, I won't give you capital. You will have a boss who will teach you accounting, trading, doing business, meeting relationships, and also cooking. The food is even better than you. No offense, your cooking is good, the quality of the restaurant. But a family restaurant. If the person I want to introduce is of Michelin quality. You know that predicate, right?"

Hanifah fell silent, she was immediately interested in listening.

"Please continue, Mother,"

"This person, has a coffee shop in Tebet area, all this time he runs his business while working in my company as well. You know it, too" said Susan.

And once again,

Susan seduced while sneaky grin.
