The Goodness of a Marriage
Chapter 7. Don't Torture Yourself

Time seems to pass so quickly. Somehow when he was outside the house, he felt every second of time so quickly passed. After putting all her personal belongings into the bag, Kia stepped out of the room. A warm greeting from his co-workers, he replied with a smile. He did establish a good relationship with fellow co-workers, although there are some people who are a little dislike of his existence there. Moreover, Kia is the daughter-in-law of the high officials of this country, most people are disappointed with the government, so Kia was dragged into the disappointment. However, for Kia it is not something that must be exaggerated. The problems of his household life, more energy needed, for that he no longer wanted to waste his energy for such things. After all, as he explained, absolutely will not change the view of people towards this country.

Aryan's luxury car after their wedding, still parked neatly in the office courtyard. Kia does not have close friends, to be invited to hang out or other things. Although he made good friends with all employees, no one can enter his life. Kia is closed about personal matters. Although not only once Aryan revolted as he asked permission to spend a little time with his co-workers in the office.

"You coming home, Kia?" Ask Dimas.

Kia undoes her intention to open the car door. Look at the origin of the voice and then smile at his assistant boss. Kia had known Dimas for a long time, and several other colleagues in this office. Because before Alfan founded the company under his father's auspices, they were already in a community of game lovers.

"Yes, Dimas." Answer Kia briefly. Kia glanced at the man who seemed to look cold indifferent beside Dimas, then said goodbye to his superior.

Not getting a response, it had become commonplace for Kia. He understood the position between him and Alfan was no longer like when they were a team in a community. Now they are limited with superiors and subordinates in the company, for that he does not expect Alfan to reply his friendly greeting.

Moments later, Kia's car started to slowly leave the office. Alfan was silent, while continuing to follow the luxury car with his gaze, until it disappeared and mingled with other cars in the middle of Jakarta traffic.

"Don't be too cold, Fan. Sorry you later." Said Dimas ketus. The man who was no less handsome than Alfan, then stepped into the car of the boss and his best friend.

"Fan, Fin, Fan. I'm your boss, yes!" Alfan was upset. He also entered and sat on the steering wheel to his apartment which is currently occupied Dimas.

"You really don't want to live in an apartment anymore?" Dimas asked as his best friend's car started to drive and left the office.

"My room at Mami's is much more comfortable." Answer Alfan ketus.

"If Kia will live again in her apartment, you will move again?" Tanya Dimas tried to find out how deep her best friend felt.

"Do not carry the name of the wife of a man!" Alfan replied annoyed.

"Don't torture yourself for a girl you can't have. Better just let go, keep looking for another woman. Try starting a relationship with a woman who is introduced to Aunt Danira, who knows as time goes by you can forget the man's wife, and start opening your heart to other women." Said Dimas giving advice, however, immediately got a tabokan from Alfan.

"Sokot know." His annoyance. "down there. Buy a car dong, dikirain people you have no salary, until buy a car can not afford. Staying free, commuting free. The most pay." Omel Alfan again before Dimas gets out of his car.

"I'm investing again, Fan. Buy a lot of sawa in the village, make a house there too, let me go home later bring my wife directly stay at home." Answer Dimas.

"Whatever is fine." Annoyed Alfan. Always, that reason will be stated Dimas, when he asked his best friend to buy a car.

"Ah base." Annoyed Alfan when remembering how cowardly he used to be. If only he had been more daring to express his feelings for Kia, when the girl was still a student at one of the universities, maybe at this time, he was on Kia's side, Aryan said.

Since there was nothing else he could do outside, Alfan chose to go home and meet his family. Enjoying dinner together, as well as joking with his favorite woman at home.

****

The same thing with Alfan, the car driven by Kia immediately drove towards the luxurious house owned by his in-laws. After the luxury car was parked neatly in front of the house, Kia immediately came out and stepped towards the door of the house.

"Assalamu'alaikum." Say it slowly.

Kia paused for a moment, looked at the people sitting in the living room, then nodded respectfully and walked into the house.

No one returned the greeting, either in his heart he did not know. However, once Kia tried to no longer care about such things. After all, almost every day he found this kind of treatment.

"Darling.." Call Aryan.

Kia who was about to climb the stairs towards her bedroom, paused for a moment. Staring warmly at the husband, accompanied by a sweet smile that always makes Aryan smile warmly at him. Not to forget also, he kissed the back of the hand of a man who loves, also loved by him with full reverence.

"There's an important guest, huh? I don't want to go straight to my room. My body's not good, ask to be cleaned." Kia laughed.

Aryan rubbed overtime the top of his wife's head. The sweet kiss did not forget it landed on Kia's head.

"All right." Reply Aryan.

"What's up, Mom?" Kia asked in astonishment as Aryan held back his hand.

"We continue the delayed ones last night." Aryan said, making Kia meet.

Kia then nodded. Whatever happens in the household, the obligation is still an obligation that must be fulfilled. As long as Aryan still loves her, and she is the only woman in this man's life, then there is no reason for her not to do that duty.
