The Roof You Promised
Part 2 - A Slap

“ Did you have an affair with Aurorae? “ . Ask Megumi without saying anything.

Herjuno. He saw the eyes of the woman who had been his wife for the past five years. There was a lot of annoyance and disappointment that he found there. And the remains of the tears she had wiped away.

“ Hem. “ Herjuno nods faintly confirming his wife's question.

Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight, Megumi looked into her husband's eyes. No panic, no attempt to cover up the truth. Herjuno answered his question calmly while continuing to look into his eyes, until finally Megumi who cut their gaze.

He released both of Herjuno's hands that had been holding both sides of his arms.

“ Login. We're talking inside. I don't want others to see us fighting.” Megumi's voice shook as she slowly turned around and her hand opened the car door slowly.

Herjuno stared briefly at his wife's movements. Walk around to the front of the car and enter through the opposite side.

“Why? “ Megumi demands explanation.

“I love him. “ Herjuno again answered him calmly, and looked into his wife's eyes.

“Are you not sane? The one who asked this is your wife if you forgot.” Megumi squealed in annoyance.

Herjuno exhaled slowly. Slowly he looked ahead after just now just staring to the right where his wife was sitting.

“ Me. I don't know where you know about my relationship with Aurorae. I also don't know what the person is saying to you, whether it's completely true or if there's something he's exaggerating or reducing. But it's true that me and Aurorae do have a relationship behind you. “ Herjuno back to his wife.

Megumi blinked her eyes then momentarily opened her mouth faintly, forcefully smiling in disbelief at what she heard.

“ Wah... “ Megumi smiled again out of words

Herjuno was silent. Looking into his wife's eyes, waiting for the reaction he'll get.

“ I'm sorry Me. I know I hurt you. Ii'm sorry. “ Herjuno approaching , his hand wanted to grab Megumi into his arms but was quickly pushed aside by his wife.

“ Don't touch me. Do you know who told me? The woman****** that, Aurorae who told me everything. Unpack your dark relationship. Did you give her room to hurt me more? So that he confidently opens his own disgrace? “ Megumi sighs rough.

Herjuno sighed. It is now mowing its temples slowly.

“ He was also hurt because of me. Please don't call him that. Let's talk about this well.”

“Talk about this well are you not sane? Since the beginning it's not good, if you want to talk well why now? You should speak well when you find a flaw in me, when you want improvement in me. Not even dating that fucking girl. “ Megumi squealing pissed.

“Ah... don't call him ******did you say? Wh why? Did you find him in the pesantren so he was so holy and untouched? Hid. You might have even tasted it. And I don't know how many men before you. “

Plaque.

Herjuno slapped him very hard. Until the reddish marks on his cheeks are clearly visible.

“I will not defend myself. That I'm dating Aurorae. And I love her. That's all I wanted to tell you, after all that's your question from the start. But that doesn't mean I'll just shut up if someone puts it down. Even if it is you. Now go home , I have to work.”

Herjuno just got out of his wife's car. Closing the door was rough. And without looking again he went from there into his office.

Megumi stared at her husband's departure with feelings she herself could not explain. Sad , disappointed , angry , all piled into one. She did not leave her husband's office for long. Still there, with the crying getting worse.

“Aurorae.. I will not let you .”
