The Suffering of the Raised Child
Chapter 39. Temptation Riki

Before reaching Devano's apartment, Mahalini asked her husband to stop at the market near the restaurant. But Devano did not comment on Mahalini's remarks, Devano instead brought Mahalini to a Mall to shop for her apartment needs.

''It's cleaner here, '' cried Devano when the car has arrived at the Mall parking lot. Mahalini just kept silent did not answer Devano's words.

''Come down,'' invite Devano who is still seen just silent, while Mahalini himself slightly held his stomach a little sore.

Mahalini just follows from behind, occasionally Mahalini holds her stomach that feels increasingly painful, probably due to the effect of her monthly guests yes times.

''Are you not ashamed to shop with me in this Mall,'' asked Mahalini suddenly, while behaving normally without showing the pain he felt at this time.

''Why be ashamed, Devano replied flatly and without looking back, where Mahalini was.

Soon Mahalini shopping took the ingredients needed only, because his stomach is getting sicker.

''Yakin, just want to do this shopping, '' asked Devano quickly, staring at the trolley that only contains some shopping.

''Tomorrow the line is shopping alone, sir, if possible? Lini also wants to quickly go home, pinta Mahalini makes Devano frown because Mahalini is not as old as he imagined before.

''Yes already, we take it to the cashier shopping'annya,'' said Devano who was embraced by Mahalini.

''I'm sorry, you go to the cashier, there are still items I will buy elsewhere, said Mahalini who walked quickly without waiting for Devano's answer.

Mahalini walked towards the shelf where the sanitary napkin is, because she remembers not having stock in her house. Devano raised only one eyebrow looking at Mahalini to the unsalted loaf of bread.

Devano, who is done with paying for his groceries, waits for Mahalini outside. Mahalini carried a pouch containing her pack of pads inside her.

''Already,'' asked Devano coldly.

Mahalini nodded and offered the Lord a cold drink, hoping that his Master would not scold him. Mahalini was holding a bottle of drink that Devano had never seen before.

Yeah, well, where has Devano ever had a drink like that? it's just a drink for women to come months alone️.

...****************...

Almira and Mama Agnes are now on the verge of turmoil, because Almira has been rejected raw by the Young Master who is handsome and also rich, he said, while Mama Agnes has never been contacted by her husband, and for several months the husband has never returned to his home, just to look at the princess and her son as well.

But unbeknownst to Mama Agnes, Papa Setiawan only visited Farel the prince who was living separately by Mama and also her brother.

''Brother does not feel that the end of Papa you never come home, is he busy it in his company'an yes, '' asked Mama Agnes to Almira who was playing her phone.

''I don't know Ma, the important thing is that Almira still gets a transfer from Papa is enough, Papa's problem is not coming home do not worry anymore dech, besides who likes the same old Papa, '' he said without thinking that his speech is heading towards the child who is disobeying his father.

''But Mama is worried, Papa you have an affair there Brother, is Papa not as handsome as before? but he has a lot of money now, and if all that happens can get our monthly money cut off, because Papa you have an affair out there,'' reply Mama Agnes who made Almira think quite hard, after hearing what was said by her Mama.

''Which is said Mama is right, but cook yes Papa is still so doyan sich, is it Ma? do not make me add puyeng with the affairs of Mama and Papa, I want to sleep sleep sleep sleepy, ''' he concluded and left the Mama who was still silent on the sofa of his family room.

On the other hand Mahalini was curled up in her mattress, after she cleaned her groceries into the refrigerator, Mahalini did not say that she was holding pain in her stomach. ''I must recover quickly, so that tomorrow can work again, '' his murmur while pressing on his sick stomach.

''Boss, you're not coming home?'' riki asked while still seeing Devano in his room.

''I have to finish this first, '' he replied quickly and looked back at the laptop screen that was still on.

''I'm with Dech, I'm afraid this newlywed is until late at night here said Riki who immediately got a pencil throw from Devano.

''If you want to go home, go home. I just want to finish this first, Devano replied as he typed the keyboard on his laptop.

Riki really helps Devano's work, so that his best friend can quickly go home and get together with his wife.

A few hours have passed and now all the work'an Devano has finished all, just clean up the rest of the mess that was made by himself.

''Finally finished too, ''' said Riki by stretching his hands to the left and right.

''Let's go home now, ''' take Devano as she moves from her seat and takes the suit she brought to the back of her chair.

''How is Mahalini now, '' asked Riki who has a stale taste to his best friend, as well as the boss where he works.

''So it's okay, I don't know now, but I hope he's okay in the apartment,''

''I hope you look after Mahalini very well Van, I'm worried that Mama and her foster sister are doing the same,'' Riki remembers his best friend so that he is more vigilant in looking after his wife.

Riki doesn't know the truth about Devano and Mahalini. All Riki knows is a quick marriage and without love, but behind all that there is a contract marriage agreement that is not known by everyone, including his own friends.

''Slowly take the car, and I hope you can love Mahalini and also love her, and suppose you are bored with her? I can still accept Mahalini to be my wife later, said Riki teasing the friend.

''Breng**sek you know,'' Devano threw a suit at Riki who had run away because of his words that intend to tease his best friend.

Devano was upset by the remark of the assistant who said he would accept his wife when Devano was bored.

''Shiitt,'' Devano punched his rudder remembering his best friend's remark earlier.

Devano did not accept the words made by his best friend, but Devano himself could not do anything with all that, because he was bound by his marriage contract with Mahalini.

In the letter there are several points that do not allow to take care of their respective affairs, both Devano and Mahalini should not interfere.

At first Devano was normal to Mahalini, but the more here Devano felt very dependent on Mahalini, yes even though they were only yesterday married, but the more here they were, but actually Devano was happy when Mahalini lived in the apartment with her.

Mahalini's shadow flashed through Devano's mind, making Devano drive his car at high speed, so that he quickly met a beautiful woman who was already his wife.

Peejalan from the company'an only in the course of 20 minutes, Devano pressed the pin code at the entrance, quiet and also dark, when Devano was already in his apartment.

''Where he was, Devano murmured, turning on the lights inside, Devano walked towards Mahalini's room which was also in a pitch-black state, because the lights in Mahalini's room were not on either

''Did he sleep at this hour yes,'' he said and walked towards his room, but Devano paused when he heard Mahalini's moaning from inside, Devano undoes his intentions and walks into the very room of his wife, not forgetting Devano turns on the lights in Mahalini's room.
