TRAPPED IN A MARRIAGE
NOT WANTING TO LIE ANYWAY

That day was the first dinner for Ninu and Haris that passed with an awkward atmosphere for Haris and tense for Ninu. There was no chatter, let alone laughter. Both of them were both immersed in each other's thoughts, Haris with his awkwardness and Ninu with his fear. Meanwhile, Mr. Otang and Tanti only watched them from the kitchen in case the employer needed something.

After eating Haris immediately passed to his study while gesturing for Mr. Otang to follow him.

“Tell him here” his orders to Mr. Otang after they entered the study, "And bring me fruit"

“Good tuan” pak Otang retreat back to the dining room.

Why didn't he just take her, Mr. Otang.

“Nona, sir is waiting for you in the workspace” said mr. Otang.

Ninu suddenly stood up, haduh.he wanted to let alone from me, nervousness again reached him and it was clearly seen by Mr. Otang and Tanti.

“Your phone need not be afraid. Mr. good person” entertain sir Otang make Ninu slightly singleness smile and then set his breath, “Iya pak” he stepped into the workspace.

Tok tok…

The door of the study room was not tightly closed so Ninu could peek to see Haris sitting on the sofa while reading a book. I don't know what book.

He's very handsome and dashing, baby he's arrogant and scary.

Haris glanced at the door making Ninu choked, by being forced to enter, "Abang called me?” now he can control himself more.

“Sit” his flat voice is back audible.

He was so happy to tell me to sit down.

“I want to talk about something important, so you listen carefully” the sound is not as cold as before.

Ninu nodded his head.

“Answer if I talk!”

“Yes, yes bang” you talk to me but your eyes look at the book, it sucks.

“I may not be able to go home every day because of the many affairs in the pool that I have to work on”

Yup!! Ninu subconsciously smiled.

“Why? You're glad I didn't come home?” apparently Haris noticed a change in expression on Ninu's face.

“Eh.. not bang, not so” his elbow surprised himself.

Huh. apparently he is happy if he does not meet me, inner Haris.

“But if mama or papa asks, just say that I go home every day”

“Means we will lie on and on” Ninu said.

“You mind?”

“I just don't want to constantly lie bang. I fear sin, especially those who are lied to are parents” replied Ninu bowed.

That's what his mother taught him first, it's better to be honest and bitter than sweet but lying, even though now he's stuck in a big lie with Haris, it's just because of his stupidity.

Haris sighed, he was right too. I also refused to lie to my mom and dad, afraid of being discovered.

“So do you have a suggestion, how to do it?” haris asked as he looked at Ninu for the first time since he came home this afternoon.

Ninu was silent. He also doesn't know how to. The beginning of all this is their mistake, especially Haris who tries to trick parents just because they are reluctant to be constantly told to get married.

“You don't have any ideas either, do you?” as if sneering, “Have it, actually I also do not want to lie to mama and papa, but there is no other way. If they don't ask, you don't have to lie, right? And it's also not a big lie” added.

Ninu was silent.

Quiet for a long time.

Since Haris did not speak anymore Ninu intended to leave from there, he stood up while saying, “Bang I want to camp..”.

Ninu was startled, again sitting his half-standing body.

“You haven't answered my question just now, what are you doing as long as I don't go home?”

“Nothing. Just learn to cook with Tanti”

“You're not bored? Aren't you a hard-working girl? Who works every day until night?” asked Haris while looking back at the book she was holding.

Ninu was silent.

“Can I go back to work bang?” tanyanya hesitated.

“Of course not. What would people say if Mr. Haris' wife worked as a waitress in a shoe store. And I'm sure Aunt Sandra won't be accepting you again”

Ninu. So what do you want, sir?

“Already, you are out, I want to work” Haris said as he stood towards his desk.

Hey he wants what the hell, talking about hanging like that, there is no end, Ninu grumbled as he moved out towards the backyard.

He was very happy to sit in the backyard. Although the night but the beauty of the garden there is not reduced even give another sensation when the garden lights illuminate various ornamental plants there. The fish pond that was given a lamp also gave its own sensation to Ninu. It's beautiful for him.

Ninu sat down to imagine what was happening today. What is this like, the wedding he will have with Haris, until when? Did mom and dad die? It's not sure when, it could be long. For a long time I would be old and no man would marry me. Or until Mr Haris finds the woman he loves? But it's also not known when. But I need certainty. I can't live like this for very long. It's a waste of time his name.

Unbeknownst to Ninu there was a pair of eyes watching him, looking at him with pity.

“Hai bang” greet Budi who just walked into the workspace.

“Tap the door first if you enter, do not slonong boy like so” serge Haris who was replied with laughter by Budi.

“Kok alone bang? Not accompanied by his beloved wife apparently” Budi sat on the sofa with a smile staring at Haris who sniffed at him.

“Kasian lho bang, your wife sitting alone in the back, kayak again sad” said Budi.

“What are you doing here?” tanya Haris ignored Budi's words.

He pretended not to care apparently, Budi smiled faintly.

“This is bang, I want to tell you tomorrow there will be a visit from DLLAJ about our new track, so you should not come to the pool tomorrow”

“Emang who said I'm not going to the pool tomorrow? So know you!”

“Yes aja aja brother soybean tonight, his name is also a newlywed, just three days” back Budi laugh.

Haris stands up to him and kicks Budi's leg, “Whisper! Home you!”

“Hei. hey..bang, slow bang no need emotions so” laughter Budi more loudly greeted sour face Haris.

“Back there I want a break!”

“Ya.ya.. I'm home. Excuse me bang, assalamualaikum!” Come out, the laughter is still heard.

Haris snorted to waste his breath. It sucks, he always teases me,

he reached the intercom on his desk, then he pressed the button no 4, "Pak Otang told Tanti to accompany Miss” command.

“Good tuan” voice pack Otang from kitchen replied.
