“La, accompany me to lunch and meet someone coming home from college, huh?” pinta Maya with a face. Kailla's best friend on campus who was a few years behind her.
“Where to?” Kailla hesitates. His eyeballs were spinning, considering Maya's request.
“Free lunch at the mall, afterwards go home. Chat for a minute, haha hihi only, La.” Maya clutches Kailla's arm tightly, like a little sister pleading with her brother.
“Ya?” todong Maya again, persuading Kailla.
“But .. I can't stay long. Just lunch, then go home. The twins and their father could destroy the whole house if I came home late.” Kailla.
“Ok, Say.” A smile etched on Maya's pretty face, the two deep indentations at the corners of the lips further made the girl look sweet.

Kailla circulates the view, looking for the whereabouts of the Mini Cooper Maya. He had arrived at the mall, just got off the car parked in the mall.
“May, have you arrived? I'm in the basement parking lot. Where are you?” Kailla talks to her best friend on her mobile phone.
“I'm already inside, La. Just come in, I'm at Zenbu, La. Waiting,” breaks up Maya, turns off her phone connection.
“Huh! I was left,” grumbled Kailla, clenched her feet, upset with her best friend.
“Sam, come in, yes. I have to milk ASI for the twins. Later, you please take it home.” Kailla.
Stepping into the mall with an unfriendly face, Kailla tried to smile when she found her best friend sitting while flipping through the menu book. The atmosphere of the lunch restaurant was not too crowded, there were only a few visitors were enjoying lunch.
“May!” kailla exclaimed, patting Maya on the back. Putting her handbag on the table, Kailla dropped her butt right next to Maya.
“Your friend is not here yet?” kailla asked, frowning. As she remembered, Maya asked him to accompany her to meet someone.
“Not yet, it looks like it's stuck in traffic.” Maya is still serious about the menu book. “You order what, La?” ask Maya again.
“I'll come, May.” Kailla spread her eyes around the restaurant. The atmosphere of the restaurant was low with rows of empty tables and benches.
Deg — Kailla was stunned, as her eyes caught the movement of someone from a distance that she was very familiar with. A young man, showed off a smile and walked towards them.
“Pak Adrian.” Accidentally, Kailla pronounces the man's name.
“Hah! Adrian sir has arrived?” asked Maya, raising her gaze. Since it was glued to the menu book, Maya was just disturbed when the name Adrian called.
“Pak!” Maya waved her hand while standing up in welcome. The girl's smile looked loose, in contrast to Kailla who suddenly felt unwell.
Adrian is a figure that Pram envied lately. Kaila promised her husband not to see her again outside of college. And now, Kailla accidentally broke her own promise. He felt guilty, whatever the reason he had denied what he had agreed with Pram.
“You've been a long time?” adrian asked, showing off a smile at Maya and Kailla alternately.
“Not yet, Sir. Just now,” says Maya with her centilnya. The girl's aura suddenly changed. From the usually cold, in a blink of an eye became warm and friendly. Even with his powerful voice, he allowed Adrian to occupy an empty bench in front of them.
“Please, Sir,” said he, spread the charm. Since the beginning of college, Maya does have feelings for the young and handsome lecturer. Not just Maya, there are many college students who have the same feelings as Maya. Evident every step, the lecturer is always surrounded by young girls.
Kaila chose to sit down and did not say much. He only speaks when someone asks him to talk. Being in the middle of Adrian and Maya, Kailla feels neglected. Although repeatedly the young lecturer in front of him invited to talk, still Kailla felt like a bully.
“Know this, I just refuse. When I met Pram Adrian, my nights would turn dark, Kailla's” swelled.
Almost fifteen minutes Maya and Adrian chatting, Kailla who is not feeling well chose to say goodbye to milking ASI. Maybe this is better than forcing to be in the middle of the two.
“May, excuse me. Regular ...” Kaila gave the code and Maya was very understanding. Among the college friends, only Maya is clear about Kailla's status as a wife and mother of two twins.
Exiting with a cooler bag, Kailla handed the bag to Sam who was waiting outside the room. “Sam, deliver to home.” Kailla rules while stepping foot into Maya and Adrian's place. It was like coming with Sam back home, but he couldn't just disappear. He felt bad for Maya who brought him here.

Kailla's eyes widened after making sure the chair that had been occupied by Maya was suddenly empty. Only left Adrian was enjoying the food presented on the table.
“Pak, Maya to where?” Kailla hurriedly asked.
“Sorry, La. Maya let me go home first. Mama suddenly short of breath, ask to be delivered to the hospital.” Adrian smiled, replied casually. The young man's hand never stopped putting food in his mouth.
“That's your food, La. Maya ordered it for you. Accompany me to eat first, just come home,” pinta Adrian.
“But ...” Kaila's body is squeezed, she regrets sending Sam home a few minutes ago. He should have come home together without worrying about Maya.
“Already, sit only.” Adrian pulls out Kailla's wrist to be willing to sit down and accompany her to lunch.
“But ... Sir.”
“Just spend your lunch, La. After that just came home.” Adrian said while looking at the pretty face of Kailla. The smile on the lips of the handsome man was flashing.
Kailla was forced to comply, there was a sense of hesitation when she refused the request of her lecturer.
“Eat and go home! The faster the better.” Kailla.
Just as Kailla put a spoonful of food into her mouth, suddenly her gaze was fixed on someone she knew very well.
Deg—
“Mama.” Kailla said spontaneously. His face dimmed, his heart racing as his gaze clashed with the twilight woman sitting with the young woman and a baby not far from his place. Kailla recognized the three. Her mother-in-law, Kinar and her daughter were curled up in a sling.
“KAILLA!” Ibu Citra shouted after making sure her view was not wrong. He deliberately walked up to Kailla and proved himself that his daughter-in-law was currently alone with another man, enjoying lunch together. The old woman's emotions were provoked when she found out her conjecture was not wrong.
“YOUR DISAPPOINTMENT, KAI. IT IS WORTHY OF YOU REFUSING TO ACCOMPANY MAMA, IT TURNS OUT YOU ALREADY HAVE AN APPOINTMENT WITH YOUR CHEATING!” Ibu Citra pulled the hand of Kailla who was sitting. On the other hand, Adrian stood up and explained.
Kailla bowed in embarrassment, Mother Citra's voice was so jarring. Everyone could hear her mother-in-law's embarrassing screams and accusations. I want to drown myself in the deepest sea. I was no longer able to bear the shame. Shame on Adrian, shame on the other visitors who stare towards them.
“Ma, don't be like this. This is my lecturer, his name is Mr. Adrian. I have nothing to do with him. Yes ‘kan, Sir?” kailla is seeking a defense.
“Mama doesn't care. Dosan Lecturer Dosan Lecturer! You can't change, Kai. It was so long ago. I can't wait for what else Pram. Already allowed to go to college, you're cheating. Your mama's blood is dropping on you. Pram really wrong choose wife!” accuse Mother of Citra.
“Bu, it looks like I misunderstood. Lala and I have nothing to do.” Adrian explained.
“No, you don't have to interfere. This is our family business. I know my daughter-in-law well. He's proven to be his football!” omel Ibu Citra, pointed her index finger at Kailla. The look on Mother Citra's face was so terrifying, the look on her eyes flashed sharply. The breath of the seven-headed woman was up and down.
Kinar who began to understand the situation, was seen trying to calm his mother, while holding Diadra, he pulled Mom Citra's hand to sit back.
“Ma, it's been. Don't do this. Malu ...” refer Kinar, code Kailla.
“Cannot. Pram should know his wife's behavior in the back. I told the boy a long time ago that his wife couldn't be trusted. It's a good thing to see me, otherwise he'll hide this carcass for years. Embarrassment!” Ibu Citra reached into her handbag and contacted Pram.
It didn't take long, there was the fiery voice of Mother Citra, complaining to her son. “MEET MAMA AT THE MALL, YOUR WIFE IS HAVING AN AFFAIR! I'M CATCHING YOUR WET KAILLA EATING ALONE WITH A GUY AT THE RESTAURANT. JUST TWO!”
