The Fruit of the Affair
Chapter 18

Nanda, Andi and Sindi had breakfast together at Andi's house. The three of them ate with fried rice made by Andi.

As per the agreement, they would be what Sisil and Rudi did. The two people had breakfast together, Nanda and Andi also did it, the difference is that the three of them, but Sisil with Jaelani's extended family.

Andi smiled sweetly as she saw Nanda bribing Sindi painstakingly. Things that his wife hadn't done for a long time. Since Sindi can eat alone, at that time her son was independent. Andi had actually banned Nanda, but the woman asked permission to feel like a mother.

"You eat too, Nda," Andi said.

Nanda nodded. However, not according to, he was still busy bribing Sindi while looking at the adorable little girl who worried about it. "I was wrong, Mas, until I had this sad fate. If I wasn't barren, I would be bribing my son."

Andi swallowed the chew. The man drank and looked at Nanda in silence. He didn't know what to say to the woman.

Nanda looked over, looking at Andi. The woman smiled with teary eyes. "Don't look at me like that. I'm not papa, I'm." The woman's tears flowed and she was immediately wiped away. "I was sad because I was barren. My world completely collapsed when I was being cheated on for not being able to conceive, but after cheating on you I feel good about being a mother."

Andi nodded.

Nanda looked back at Sindi and returned to bribing. "Eat a lot, make it big fast."

The innocent Sindi nodded. He accepted Nanda's bribe until the contents of the plate were exhausted, nothing was left.

"Who?" ask Nanda.

"Yes, Ante."

Nanda smiled. He rubbed the top of Nanda's head, helped drink, then took a tissue to wipe the child's mouth. Nanda sighed. He's peeping the cheeks of Sindi's kingpin. Then smile wide. "I want a child, O God," he said softly.

Andi was silent, but her heart felt very pity. "As long as you are with me, Sindi is your son too. You can treat him as your real son."

Nanda. "I'll do that. Thank you for the limit of this opportunity."

Andi nodded.

Nanda suddenly frowned. "I told you not to fuck with me. The Christmas is ordinary, don't be like that. I don't want to be pitied."

The man shook his head. "I'm not like you."

Nanda nodded. "Good."

"Now you eat. I'll get the briefcase in the room first."

Nanda nodded. This time the woman obeyed and started her breakfast. When eating fried rice, the taste is good because of the right spice, making him put Andi's cooking is the number one priority of his favorite dishes.

"Papa Sindi pinter cook. Sindi will have to kayak papa, yes," said Nanda.

Sindi who was playing the Barbie doll nodded without looking at Nanda.

Andi's back. He sat down again in Nanda's front seat. "Well, you want to go home?" tanyakanya.

"likely. Where do you work, how do you keep Sindi?" Nanda asked as he stabbed the fried shrimp with a fork and directly devoured it. In addition to fried rice, there is fried chicken, fried shrimp and cucumber vegetables.

"Because we both work, Sindi I leave it with my mother. The house is not far from here."

Nanda nodded. "What work?"

"Manager cafe's. Sisil opened a beauty salon business."

"Enak ya Sisil, can work. I-i didn't. Rudi is not a permit. He said I was home, afraid I was glimpsed by another man, uh he knew he was glancing at another woman." Nanda again poked the fried shrimp and ate it.

"So, what's your plan?" ask Andi.

"We have to make them realize we're cheating. I mean, Rudi started to suspect I was cheating and Sisil suspected Mas Andi of cheating."

"Means we have to suck."

"Nanda nodded. Keep playing the phone" he suggested.

"Do their own thing, be independent without their help."

"If in that way they haven't been suspicious?" ask Andi.

"We make it look as if we're getting snooped. He heard us call, or pergokin we go on the street or eat together, or the lipstick on your shirt, that's what I found in Rudi's mas shirt, Sisil's lipstick."

Andi silence. His chest tightened when he thought of his wife. Hurt another woman's heart and made her fast for two months only and chose to serve her affair. How outrageous.

"Mas," call Nanda.

"Yes." Yeah." Andi.

"I finished breakfast. Go on, come on."

Andi nodded.

The existence of Sisil at the breakfast moment Jaelani family, making Danu and Radit choose breakfast in the office cafeteria. So, only Jaelani, Sukma, Rika, Sani, Sisil and Rudi remained. Sani and Rika's children are taken care of by baby sisters.

"Eat a lot, Sil. You have to be strong to maintain a relationship with Rudi until you get married" said Rika who saw Sisil take rice.

"Yes, Mommy." Sisil's cheeks were blushing with his heart pounding, feeling happy for the support. That's what he wants, too.

"Rud, when are you going to marry Sisil?" ask Sukma. "Children don't hang for long. Cassian. I've wanted a grandchild from you, you know," she continued.

Rudi stopped eating. The man looked at Sukma, after which the other members. Then looked at Sisil who was smiling sweetly returning her gaze.

"Mas Rudi said that as long as Nanda allows it, she will marry me." The woman said with pride. Her smile was beautiful, after which she looked at Rudi again and blinked one eye.

"Is that so, Rud?" ask Rika with sparkling eyes. Raut happy it was shown Sukma and Sani, while Jaelani only as a loyal listener. Keep eating while sharpening the ears.

Rudi sighed. It was heavy to nod, but he did because he was tempted by Sisil's offer that would make him have children.

"Well, this is good news" Rika said.

"Are you sure, Rud?"

Jaelani's question attracted the attention of everyone including Rudi.

The old man sighed. "Are you sure you're going to have two wives? Sure it's fair? Sure this one's gonna have kids?"

Rudi's initial two questions were reassured, but that last question left him in a dilemma. Are you able to have children if you play with other women? Instantly, Sisil's reassuring remarks made him even more in a dilemma. 

***

Nanda went home, went straight to the room and lay down on the bed. She felt a sad loneliness differently when she was with Andi and Sindi. If he is not barren, surely the fate of his household will not be like this. He and Rudi will be happy with their children. She will not cheat and play with other men, and her husband's family will obviously love her.

The tring!

Nanda took his phone in a sling bag. Saw the chat that turned out from Rudi.

[Darling, are you home?]

[Yes]

Nanda deliberately replied. I want to know her husband's reaction.

[Sorry, I went to work quickly. Must prepare a meeting.]

Nanda smiled bitterly. Once in love with her affair, her husband lied to her.

[Welcome to work, Mom. May all his business be launched.] Reply, after that the phone is placed on the nightstand. He closed his eyes while biting his lower lip. His heart hurts so much.
