THE WOMAN (END)
•188

Since I found a photo of Rizal mas with Ayu. every time my mind was wracked with various questions that came from nowhere. I became unfocused and often daydreamed of scary things.

It's been two days since that incident, but I dare not ask anything to Sandy mas. let alone Ayu. I let this secret neatly stored. let alone the attitude of Sandy mas still cue me.

Until one day, when I was sitting on the balcony with Andi who was studying.

"Well, are you home yet?" my selorohku shocked

"I went home to get the documents. And another one, later in the afternoon there was Gala dinner" he explained as he gave me an invitation card he held.

I wrote that white paper with gold ribbons,

"Find a nice outfit.at 7 I'll pick it up" he said as he stepped away from me to the bookcase in the room.

"Mas Sandy's going to the office again? did you have lunch at the house,?" much

"No need. I've eaten." he said lightly.

I was fixated long enough. his attitude was getting increasingly uncomfortable.It's been almost 5 days mas Sandy was so cold to me.

"Mom wants to have dinner with papa huh? Andi can come with me?" seloroh Andi's.

"It's a special occasion for adults dear.which children can come along." I explained

Andi scowled for a moment, while sighing in disappointment.

"Well..."

"When we eat out the three of us. Mama will talk to papa!" I tried to give him understanding.

7 O'clock in 15 minutes. I went downstairs wearing the maroon dress that Rahma chose for me.

I repeatedly felt the area of my waist that was very attached to my body.

"Why did Rahma choose gini rich clothes anyway," he sisku hesitated.

"Oh non, I guess who was. rich photo model loh." seloroh Susi.

I grinned in embarrassment, should I be happy for the compliment? but my heart felt uncomfortable.

"That's it, but how do I feel his clothes are narrow ya bi."

"No ah non, great. Fitting in the body. beautiful really. if others see, it would mean that the non has not no tail" his praise ended rarity.

"Auntie can aja,oh yes. said the same bi Atun. nitip Andi yes.fearnya I go home a bit malem.and again, please turn off the TV in Andi's room ya." I asked.

"Every non, I will say." bi susi passed from before me.

I stepped into the living room.it looks like Sandy's car hasn't come yet.

"Bu Ayu," I was stunned by surprise. When I saw him sitting casually on the sofa. I thought that this afternoon Ayu was gone.

"It turns out you went to the show tonight too," he said cynically.

"Yes ma'am, Sandy asked me to accompany her" I replied politely.

"Please don't be a fight later. The Gala dinner was attended by important people who were all top officers of the big companies from all over the city, so you should be able to keep your attitude and speech" he explained.

I nodded obediently.

That's how bad I was in his eyes, until every chance like this he was so concerned with me.

"Sandy should go alone." he sighed slowly.

It is clear that Ms. Ayu has not accepted me as part of this family,....

I Honestly wanted to ask her about the photo I found back then to her, but, what is Ayu ma'am going to tell? or is it certain that he won't lie to me?

"Mom, may I ask you one thing?" I murmured a little doubt.

Ma'am turned her head quickly with suspicious eyes.

BIMMPS!

BIMMPP!

We both stared outwards at the same time.

Mas Sandy who just got out of the car, seemed silent for a moment when she saw me standing in front of the door.

"Why mas? is something wrong?" many wonder.

"No." he said, opening the door for me.

I sat down carefully, I saw that Sandy had also changed her clothes. She must have stopped by the boutique earlier.

"Mas Sandy stopped by the boutique? How's Ema doing? is she okay?"

"Ema is healthy. You don't have to worry." he said.

I nodded slowly, a few days ago I got the news that Ema had been hospitalized because of fainting. Unfortunately I had not had time to visit her at that time.

"You bought your own clothes?" ask Sandy cold.

"No, this dress is Rahma's choice.Why? from earlier mas Sandy seemed to be looking at my clothes continue? the clothes are ugly, aren't they?!" selorohku panic. But Sandy still looks focused driving.

"His head is beautiful" she murmured, throwing her face at the car window.

I put on a smile. What the fuck, if the intention is to praise why not just talk directly.why should go around like a fan. Is it because he's still a prestige? I am clearly his wife.

You're a weird Sandy! my inner.

"Mas, did Nita come too?!" tanyaku later.

"Nita is busy. After all, this event is only attended by important people.most of them are the owners of the company, as well as shareholders.The invited guests are only 50 people" he explained.

"Oh yes,." I understand.

"If you're there, you don't stay away from me!" strict orders.

"Yes mas" I nodded.

Your car is a little choked up because the road is quite crowded with other vehicles that seem to just come out of the office.We even took 20 minutes to arrive at one of the famous hotels.

•••

Being part of a wealthy family, is not an easy thing.we are required to be able to adapt quickly to the environment and people around.

I am still very layman with people and conditions around Sandy, even have to learn quickly.

Even this afternoon, I took the time to study the etiquette of eating, talking and also behaving. Though some time ago, I also had Sandy dinner mas, but still, I was nervous and anxious.

Fear of disappointing your partner, is a feeling that is very difficult to face.doubt and not confident, let alone the attitude of Sandy at this time I think will not help much.

I let out a long sigh, as I set foot into the building, gathering the courage to look forward to those who were clearly not very familiar with me.

Mas Sandy opened her arms, hinting at me so I wouldn't be far from her.

"Calm down" whispered Sandy, as if I knew I was nervous.

Ad a feeling of relief as she spoke to me so, at least she still cared and realized my existence.

Two servants seemed to welcome us both, and upon arrival in the room, several people seemed to have filled their tables. there are Asik chatting there are also busy enjoying the Appetizers that have been held on the table.

I spread my eyes far enough, but of course I won't find anyone I know.

"Eh! doctor Hasan. Is he here too?" pekiku.

Sandy followed my direction.

"Of course he's here, Doctor Hasan is the founder of one of the biggest Cancer foundations in the city. Don't you know about it?"

"Oh, I just found out." I smiled as I waved my hand low.

"Don't be weird. Everyone's watching us!" dream again.

I put my hand down quickly, staring frantically around.

"Sorry," I said

We walked to one of the tables numbered 19. There were 4 chairs there.

I will sit down with a stranger. I let out a lethargic breath.

Fight Eyebrows! inner shouting.
