The Waiter's My Husband's Affair
Episode 11 [Visiting Mother-in-law]
Camila rubbed her mouth violently after her nausea slightly subsided. Camila had no idea what had happened to her, she had been feeling unwell since waking up, and was now nauseous and vomiting. After seeing Ariana's strange behavior, now she also has to nausea and vomiting like this. It's so annoying, Camila thought.
After feeling better, Camila now came out of the bathroom, then went to the kitchen to get some drinking water. Camila did not realize that there was Wilda who always paid attention to her movements. Wilda seemed so worried thinking about what might happen in the future if what he had in mind really happened.
"Hopefully I'm wrong" muttered Wilda.
Meanwhile, after finishing enjoying the fresh air and enjoying coffee, Kevin got ready and went to the office. Today, Ariana had a day job, so she had enough time to do something after Kevin left.
Ariana stared at her room, then took off the sheets and pillowcases brutally even filled with anger. Ariana wants to replace everything that has been used as the place of the affair Kevin and Camila, but changing something in a big way will make Kevin suspicious, so he must resist his wishes.
Not only sheets or pillowcases, but Ariana also took out dresses, shoes, and bags called Wilda once worn by Camila. Ariana threw the items into a large cardboard box that was the same as the sheets and pillowcases, then covered them.
Ariana's views now point to a photo of her marriage to Kevin. Her happy look in the photo made Ariana want to tell her in the past that she had married the wrong man. There is no such thing as love forever. It's all just bullshit. It's a waste to try to be a good wife to prove yourself, because in the end Kevin hurt her.
"Mother." Emily's sweet voice breaks Ariana's daydream. Ariana immediately changed her face to be full of smiles, then looked at Emily who came with Yuri.
"You ready? Then let's go to school now" Ariana said.
"Mother, what is this?" Emily pointed at the large cardboard box in her mother's room.
"Junk. I'm gonna take this shit out." Ariana answered without hesitation, then lifted the cardboard with all her strength.
"Let me help." Yuri wants to help, but Ariana dodges.
"I'm not that weak." Ariana also brought the cardboard out without anyone's help. While Yuri had looked at Ariana's room which looked quite messy, but did not dare to say anything about it.
"Please clean up my room." Ariana had said this to one of the waiters while walking carrying a large cardboard in front of her. The waiter offered to help, but Ariana refused. Help out? Ariana will not accept help from people who cannot be trusted.

When the show that Ariana hosted became so liked by many people, then the news about her became often seen. This time, the news about Ariana getting an award from her school used to be a warm news. People admire Ariana, seen from the many positive comments that exist in each article.
Fiona who had seen the news about Ariana seemed to sigh, then placed her iPad on the table with a little rough. Fiona hates to see that, she always branded Ariana will be like her mother, but only good news came from her, then her son brought bad news that made her ashamed. Wilda had even known of the affair long before her. What if Ariana finds out? That would be so embarrassing.
Then, one of the maids came to Fiona and said, "Excuse me, Madam, Miss Ariana came to visit you."
"Ariana's coming? What's for?" fiona murmured, before finally he came out of the room to meet with Ariana who was waiting for him in the living room. Ariana does come to meet him sometimes and Fiona knows it was done because Ariana hopes to establish a good relationship with him. However, now, Fiona is afraid that Ariana's arrival is only to humiliate her.
As soon as she reached the living room, Fiona saw Ariana standing up and smiling at her. Fiona had a glance at the table and saw there was a brown paper bag that seemed to be carried by Ariana, because she never came empty-handed. Fiona doesn't understand why Ariana wasted her time and money to come here and bring something because it won't change anything.
"What are you here for?" Fiona asked in a sombre tone as usual.
"Before, Mom said that Mom was not healthy, so I came to bring some drinks that are good for Mom's health. I'm afraid your health might be deteriorating." Ariana also took a paper bag that she brought and presented to her mother-in-law. As usual, her mother-in-law never took anything she gave, so Ariana put the paper bag back on the table.
"Yes, Kevin has given me so much, so much that I can barely stand it anymore because it weighs me so much. However, I came to my position because of myself and because of my abilities. I'm honored as Kevin's wife and Mom's daughter-in-law, but I'm also honored as myself, as Ariana." Ariana explained this with great emphasis. Ariana wouldn't let anyone else still call her shine because of Kevin because she even hates that phrase now.
Fiona stared fixedly at Ariana who this time gave a different answer, but previously never denied if anyone said that Kevin was the person who had made it shine like now. I don't know what made him talk that way. Fiona was just scared to see Ariana smile at her.
"Now, you're talking more than ever" said Fiona and Ariana, still smiling. The same smile, but Fiona really no longer feels the same way after learning of Kevin and Camila's affair.
"Did my words bother Mom? Or do you want to say something, but get stuck because I'm talking?" ask Ariana.
"I don't have to say anything to you. Go and bring back what you brought."
"I brought it with me sincerely, so please accept. You have to take care of your health because it can happen days that are so heavy. I'm sorry." Ariana left after being satisfied to see the reaction of her mother-in-law. Her mother-in-law's attitude was still haughty, but it was obvious that she was so afraid that someone would destroy her pride. Ariana did not understand, why could her mother-in-law still be so proud of her even after knowing her son's actions?
"Why do I feel like he wants to embarrass me" Fiona muttered.

Because of working with Eric's company, Kevin often met with him during working hours to discuss work. Like today, they decided to have coffee together after finishing a meeting about a project.
Eric actually just avoids to meet the woman who will be his wife, so find an excuse by saying that he still has a job, but just relax with Kevin.
"Do you know Ariana's schoolmate Mark?" ask Eric.
"Mark?" Kevin looked like he was thinking, then remembered that Ariana had told him about Mark when he looked through photos of Ariana's school days.
"Yes, Ariana told me about the man. I also know that they have dated. Why are you suddenly asking about her?" kevin asked Eric.
"It's just worth it they look close. I saw it when Ariana received an award at school. I went there to meet the woman I was betrothed to, then I saw a man who kept taking pictures of Ariana and kept smiling at her. Then, Ariana introduced him as Mark, he said his old friend. After that, I also saw them go together."
"They met, then left together?" Kevin asked to be sure.
"Yes, that's what I saw. Wait, didn't Ariana tell you that?"
"Of course Ariana said it. He said go with his friend and I didn't demand any more answers from him. There's no harm in not going with an ex-girlfriend? It's just a story in the past." Kevin looks calm, but actually he does not like if Ariana is not frank with him. From the story of Eric also he felt that Mark's behavior seemed a bit strange.
Eric silently smiled knowing that Kevin was getting distracted. "Yes, it's just a story of the past. However, you have to be careful because there are a lot of people who want to have Ariana."
"Includes you, right?" Kevin quickly replied to Eric.
Elsewhere, Camila who was staring at the new calendar realized that she was late for the moon, more precisely had passed for two weeks. "I was just planning it, but he has come? I must be pregnant, right?" unlike other women who would panic knowing she was late for the moon, Camila looked happy.
