The Fake Couple
Socialite groups.

Kinanti glanced at Daffin next to her. And again his heart pounded quickly every time his eyes met face to face with a pair of dark-sweet eyes belonging to Daffin who also glanced at him, then they shared a smile. They had made love many times, but Kinanti still felt awkwardness with Daffin. There was an invisible high wall between them, but Kinanti did not know what it was. Perhaps their different social status turned out to be like heaven and earth. But actually it does not matter because Daffin and Opa Kalandra received it well. Daffin even once intention to upgrade himself to look equal, not only the appearance of upgrades but also taste and knowledge. Daffin also always invited Kinanti to attend elite events, meeting elite people whom I never imagined before. Like today, a charity event enlivened by entrepreneurs and socialites. The face that Kinanti used to see on television or business and fashion magazines, now plastered real in front of him.

Inevitably, Kinanti must be appropriately adapted and blend with the socialites who are friendly to welcome him. Although maybe actually what they welcome is not him, but Kinanti who bears the status of daughter-in-law of Mr. Kalandra, one of the great donors of this charity event. Kinanti covered her awkwardness by smiling and replying to just every friendly nod addressed to her.

Kinanti almost yawned because they were tired of hearing their chatter that was not much different from the chatter of mothers who were gathering at the vegetable maker, gossiping.

"What is your Instagram account?" tanya Nadine, the wife of famous retail entrepreneur Kinanti tells and then they follow each other.

Nadine is a selebgram. Similarly her new socialite friends are mostly influencers.

"How did you and Daffin meet first?" ask Siska, a successful beauty business owner.

"We were friends in High School." Kinanti answered briefly and densely, she was afraid of being wrong because Daffin was not like those who had an elite school background. Kinanti even just found out if Daffin turned out to be that unique, refused to grow in an elite social environment and chose to blend in with the middle social environment only.

Afraid that the questions about her and Daffin were growing, Kinanti changed the topic by asking back.

"How can you be so successful developing a business at such a young age?"

Siska and the other socialites laughed. They can understand the innocence of the Kinanti question. Of course, their business is easily developed rapidly because they are in the right environment, support systems that suit their needs, namely a very large and large business network. Even their faces alone can be the embodiment of the business itself.

"Kinanti, come on. activate your instagram account. With what you have now, it can be a new business for you. We will help you" said Siska, who was adopted by her other friends.

It turns out that the help Siska and her friends meant was to raise the name of Kinanti in a crowd on social media and declare if Kinanti was included in their cyrcle, he said, through their instastory uploads that showed a variety of photos together during the charity event. And in a matter of minutes, the Kinanti account has reaped hundreds of followers. Many netizens were made curious by the beautiful figure of Kinanti who stole the attention with her simple but stunning appearance.

The socialites disperse back into the arms of their respective spouses as the auction event for the charity will begin. Kinanti looked at Daffin's towering body among the crowd, his bright face and stingy smile competing with the good looks of the successful men in this place. Kinanti waved when she realized Daffin was looking for him.

"Stop it," hiss Kinanti was embarrassed because again Daffin did it in front of many people.

Daffin did it deliberately, as a form of announcement to everyone here that this beautiful woman who stole their attention was his wife, his, Mrs Daffin Kalandra. And the man didn't mind at all when the photographer's camera blitz flocked this scene. Compared to the upside with Kinanti who wanted to submerge herself under the blanket of the room that second as well.

Daffin's hands were still coiled around Kinanti's neck, like wanting to protect her from the crowd of people who were enthusiastic about attending this fun charity event.

"I want you, Kinan," he whispered as he kissed the top of Kinanti's head which he now embraced. If you do not remember after this he had to make a speech, it felt like that second Daffin kidnapped Kinanti and took her into the hotel room he had ordered, then made love as much as he could. Oh, my God, Kinanti really drove Daffin crazy. While dating Amber or another woman, Daffin is fine with his libido, but with Kinanti, somehow his libido gets so brash this way, making Daffin hot cold suppress his passion to love him with Kinanti. Daffin also pinched Kinanti's squeezed cheeks that blushed red, making it so beautiful multiple times.

"Married without love, does not mean it will not make us happy, Kinan. Just have fun with me." Daffin recalled whispering the sentence to Kinanti, and having fun he meant was exactly like this. Although without love that binds their hearts, but proven they are comfortable in togetherness wrapped in romance that is always hot intoxicating.

Meanwhile at a VIP special table, Opa Kalandra chuckled and also smiled at the action of Daffin who showed off intimacy there.

"His cup is ready to go public now, no longer cover up the meetings of his original status as the sole heir of Kalandra Group" he murmured to himself. There is relief that now flows through his chest that has been feeling heavy. It's good to see Daffin slowly coming out of his shell.

Daffin, his grandson, had been uncomfortable living in this kind of environment, so choose to escape to the environment of ordinary people. Maybe the trauma that had suffered him as a child, or the influence of Anggraeni, his mother.

Anggraeni, his son-in-law, comes from an ordinary family like Kinanti. Originally Anggraeni was just a lowly office clerk working at the Revelation company, but somehow the woman had made her son fall in love and ended up marrying him. Kalandra is not actually against their marriage, but it seems Anggraeni is too inferior to him and does not have the mentality of a rich man so down himself when entering the world of Revelation which is very much different from his simple world, and over time Anggraeni stressed with unclear turmoil. Such was the conclusion of Kalandra, without knowing what really happened in the household life of the only child who seemed fine in his eyes, until tragedy after tragedy happened.

Elsewhere, Asri cries in her quiet home. Lamenting the paralysis of the effects of a stroke that had attacked him suddenly. Not only that, he also lamented Dion who must be imprisoned for fraud and embezzlement of his client's funds. His eldest son was forced to work hard to support the family's economy, leaving his college dormant. While the youngest so lost his playing time as a teenager because he had to help Asri take care of his large house without a maid.

"Kinanti..," his sigh suddenly missed the figure.
