The Promise You Make
16. The seven-month plan

"It still needs me, it hurts me. Let's see what will happen to your lives after all this I dismantle. Are you still able to boast of yourself like before" Adisti muttered as he stared at his dead phone.

The woman also cleaned herself in the bathroom. After this she had to go meet with the owner of the company where her husband and Arsyilla worked. Fortunately he was a friend of his late father so, it is not difficult to make an appointment. Adisti could have come there directly, after all he also has a stake there, but does not want everything to be uncovered now. It takes a while to do a lot of things.

An email goes to Adisti's phone. When he saw it he smiled happily because what was expected was now in sight. Now just wait for the day to come.

"Tumben you want to meet Om? There must be something going on. Do you want a position in the company?" ask Gunawan the owner of the company where Bryan and Arsylla work.

"No, Om knows for himself that I don't like business the way Om does. I also have a lot of work" Adisti said with a smile.

"Then why are you making an appointment with Om?" gunawan asked with a confused face.

"I want Om to fire two people I once recommended to Om."

Gunawan frowned while looking at Adisti's face. Firing someone is not difficult for him, but that does not mean he can fire people at will. There are some company rules that must be implemented. After all he was a superior who should set a good example for his other men.

"Who's the guy? Let Om's men find out later, it's not easy to just fire people."

"Yes, Om. I know, I set myself how to fire them. I don't want them to be able to work there again, after what they did to me."

"May you know what the reason is that makes you want them dismissed? Though you yourself recommended them so vigorously."

"They don't know thank you. I've been very kind to them, but they just want to betray me."

Gunawan paused for a moment, digesting what Adisti said. "Isn't he your husband? Does that mean he has another woman?"

"It's more precisely another wife because she's remarried."

"Then don't look for excuses anymore. In Om's company there is also a rule if a man should not have more than one wife, unless he is married with the consent of his wife. In your case because your husband married secretly, it's easy to fire him. Later I ask the HRD first, if there is a letter from Bryan that says your willingness to be combined. If true, it could also add to the trouble point of having already entered a fake letter."

"No need to be confused. If you need help, go to the company or go home. Your aunt would be so happy to see you. Regarding your friend later, let Om find the reason. Om also less so know about their work."

Adisti nodded, and they began to enjoy the food that had been served at the table. The woman was very lucky because her late father's best friend wanted to help. Though his relationship was also not so close to the middle-aged man.

"Ouch! How'this? The show's tomorrow! I have to pay for everything, what? Bryan could not be contacted again. Where the hell is that kid!" grumbled Susi while playing her phone.

The woman continued to try to contact her son, but was not also picked up. Finally he can only send a message, hopefully later in the afternoon Bryan can be contacted and can give him money. Lusi did not want the neighbors to make fun of him because the middle-aged woman was already proud, that would hold a large-scale event. Regarding Bryan's second marriage, the neighbors also already know because at that time the marriage contract was held there.

Adisti also agreed to the marriage. Even they were amazed at the woman who was willing in honey when she was a beautiful woman. Bryan and his family say that Adisti willingly mixed because he was not able to give children. Especially with the signature Adisti given Bryan when holding a marriage contract event, making everyone believe just like that. It was just a fake signature.

"Ma, aren't we overdoing it by having an event for that woman?" asked Erick who from the beginning did not like if his brother married again. Especially with women who are not at all commensurate with Adisti.

"What is excessive? Bryan's got a lot of money, we should've had a party like this. Especially this is for the first grandson of Mama, Mama wants to make a big event to be memorable." Lusi smiled at the thought of how excited the party would be.

"Impressive of what, if you spend money. Why not just have a simple party? Moreover, you have also cheated Brother Adisti raw for your desire. Somehow later if Adisti Brother finds out, I might not be able to continue my studies" said Erick cynically.

"Adisty won't know if you don't tell her so, you better shut up. Mama knows that all this time you don't like your sister's second wife, but you also have to hide it. Mama doesn't want your future to stop here, it all depends on you. If you still want to go to college, I hope you keep it a secret. You know, if you were just a high school graduate, you wouldn't be able to work in an office like you wanted to for a long time. Mama just wants you to shut up."

It was always his mother's reason for Erick to keep the young man quiet to see the injustice that befell his sister-in-law. He wanted to tell the woman, but did not have the courage. His future is still long, Erick still wants to go to college and achieve his goals and that can only be granted by the existence of Adisti.

Eric was ashamed of his family's behavior. Though all this time Adisti has been very good at them, meeting all the needs from small to large. The life of his mama who likes to spend time is always filled by Adisti without asking much. To the woman, the in-laws were her mother so, she never questioned anything Lusi did. Moreover, both of Adisti's parents have also died.

Without saying much, Erik left the house. He better go to a friend's house and just stay there. The man also did not want to be present at the woman's seven-monthly event. Erick never considered Sahna as a sister-in-law because for him only Adisti became his sister-in-law.

If one day his brother-in-law finds out and asks to separate from Bryan, Erick will not break the bond of this brother because Adisti has helped a lot huh so far. He doesn't care about his college anymore either.
