The Fruit of the Affair
Chapter 19

Nanda woke up as her phone shook. He reached out his hand, picking up the flat object that was on top of the nightstand. The call came from Rudi, her husband.

Nanda sighed. He received the phone, put the phone over his right ear. "Hallo" he said with his eyes closed again. He's still drowsy.

Instantly Nanda's eyes opened violently, then closed more tightly. The woman exhaled a heavy-sounding breath. He also scratched his lower lip. Her husband said hello, only she got another voice, a cheerful-sounding female voice said, 'Honey, I came to bring lunch. Eat, yuk.'

Tut!

Nanda smiled in anguish. Phone disconnected. May she think her husband cut off unilateral communication because of shame to be discovered, but what occurred to her brain was that the man chose to eat with his mistress instead of talking to her on the phone.

Nanda opened her eyes. He wiped away the tears that could not be held back, after which he sighed. Looks like she has to prove the truth about her husband choosing her or choosing her affair. All this for the sake of his determination to take revenge. The woman moved, preparing to go to Rudi's office.

***

The receptionist's greeting did not bother Nanda. She kept walking towards her husband's room. The greeting of the office employee while in the elevator was ignored, she just focused on her husband's room to see what was happening inside there and determine the action.

Nanda sighed before stepping out of the elevator.

"Excuse me, ma'am," the employees say no more Nanda. The company's ceo wife immediately walked away to the destination with a flat face, seriously.

"Bu-"

Nanda raised his hand, stopped the secretary Rudi who wanted to greet him. If there is a chat, it could be that the intention of his arrival failed. She coded with eyes so that the man would sit back and not take care of him, after which the woman walked near the door of her husband's study. Open slowly and peek through that narrow gap.

Nanda's heart thumped as he saw the sweet scene ahead. Rudi and Sisil sat side by side on the sofa, facing each other. Sisil bribed and Rudi accepted the bribe with a calm face.

"I promise to give you a child" said Sisil who immediately made Nanda's eyes feel hot. Jani the woman obviously made Rudi interested. If this is the case, her husband will choose with his affair.

Nanda found Rudi staring intensely at Sisil's eyes. The woman nodded. "My friend you'll have a child, ma'am."

"I'm not sure."

Sisil wiped the edge of Rudi's oily lips. "Surely with me. I'll prove it. Give me a chance. Let's get married."

"Dutch-"

"I'll get his permission. You can also help me ask permission. It's for your descendants. There's no way you can live without a successor, right?"

Rudi silent. Then nodded and Sisil happily hugged the man tightly.

Nanda closed the door slowly. Smothering his mouth so that the sobs of his heartache are not heard. The woman's tears flowed.

"Mom."

Nanda wiped away her tears quickly. He turned around and looked at the secretary Rudi. "Don't tell your boss that I'm coming."

The secretary could only nod obediently.

Nanda walked away with a dead heart. Her husband is no longer hers.

Wh-tok!

Sukma who just came out of the bathroom, immediately approached the door of the room, opened and immediately told Rika to enter. "What's wrong?" tanyakanya.

"Where's the father, ma'am?" rika asked who looked towards the bed, but did not find Jaelani.

"Dad is in the fish pond. Why go see mom?"

Rika sighed. "Like we have to help Sisil get Nanda's blessing. How about tonight we invite Nanda to come to dinner and ask him to give Rudi permission to marry Sisil?"

Rika nodded and smiled sweetly. "If so I call Rudi and tell him to bring his wife here. I'm out first, Mom."

Sukma. He looked at Rika's back that was away. Her smile expanded, she was really impatient to hold the granddaughter of her young son.

Andi stood in front of the cafe. Nanda called and said she wanted to come for lunch together, so she was waiting for him.

The taxi stopped in front of the cafe. Nanda wears sunglasses and comes out after paying. The woman smiled. Then waved at Andi while walking over to the man.

"Have you waited a long time?" ask Nanda. He felt special because he was waiting like this.

"Yet. Are you really taking me to lunch together?"

Nanda nodded. "Sisil is eating with my husband at the office so I have to have lunch with her husband. This is how we get revenge."

Andi nodded. "Let's go in."

Nanda nodded. "We ate in your study, yeah."

Andi nodded again and walked first.

**

Andi and Nanda sat side by side on the sofa of the study, next to the glass window. Nanda sighed several times while bribing Andi. The man accepted the bribe because this is what Rudi got from Sisil and he also had to feel, to be fair.

"Enough, Nda. Do not be forced if not strong," said Andi who saw the eyes of Nanda glazed.

The woman shook her head. "Don't tell me to stop, Mas should encourage me to do this so that we can get used to it and be comfortable with each other, like the two of them."

"When do we get revenge like this?" andi asked, after which the man accepted Nanda's bribe.

"Until they realize we're having an affair. Otherwise, when they get married, we'll get married too."

Andi silence. He did not accept Nanda's bribe and chose to stare at the woman intensely.

"I will serve you well as Sisil did to my husband even if we don't love each other."

"Not that far, Nda. Marriage isn't a toy thing."

Nanda ate his mouthful. He chews slowly. Scooping rice and vegetables again and bribing to Andi. This time the man accepted.

"alright. We have to let them know we cheated before their wedding took place." Nanda had already told her what she had heard in Rudi's office earlier as they waited for the food to come. Even she had to cry in the man's arms so not strong to hold tightness in the chest because of her husband's actions.

Andi nodded in agreement.

"Don't hesitate to call me if Mas finds out about their togetherness or whatever it is about the two of them. We have to do what they do."

Andi nodded. "Nda," call him.

"Hm." Nanda bribed his mouth, then chewed slowly while looking at Andi.

"You ate with my old spoon."

Nanda smiled. "It's just a mouthpiece, we've even exchanged saliva, we've done more than this. Shouldn't be such a small problem that it doesn't need to be in- uh!" Nanda's eyes rounded after noticing her vulgar speech. His cheeks instantly frowned and he stared in the other direction, gnawing a few times. Then bite his lower lip. He shifted slightly away, looked at Andi and smiled awkwardly, after which scratching his non-itchy nape. "Kecelosan, Mommy." The woman looked the other way again.

Andi who saw Nanda wrongly staying and face that expression of embarrassment, smiled knot.
