8 To 4: The Mayor's Contract Wife

Just an Ajeng

After exiting the depot, Ajeng and Wira walk back home. The hero then took out a box from his pocket and gave it to Ajeng. “This gift for you.”

“What is this, Mas?” ask Ajeng while opening the box containing a brooch in the form of gold-plated flowers and decorated with sea pearls that he had seen with Yuni.

“This is the work of Mr. Jamil, the best jeweler of the city and this is the only one."

“Wait! Isn't this made the same traders who sell in the square?”

"Kok know?"

"I've seen this while walking with Yuni in the square. He said it's a special order."

Hero nodded. "I ordered this specially for you."

"So what my beloved wife forced me?" Temptation again

And Wira quickened her steps before Ajeng because she could not stand constantly hearing the plagues of Ajeng that made her ashamed. As if he did not want to let go of his prey just like that, Ajeng immediately caught up with Wira and held his hands tightly.

"If you think about it, since marriage we have never walked while holding hands rich gini well?"

Wira looked at Ajeng with a smile and tightened his hand.

"Eh, Mr Wali?" Greet one of the residents who passed them on the street.

"Yes Mom. Where's mom from?" Reply Friendly heroes.

"This is why kids buy books. Is this Wali Ma'am?"

Wira put out his hand and hugged Ajeng in front of the people. "Yes, this is Ajeng, my wife."

"Yes ampum, very beautiful Ms. Wali. You guys are the most compatible couple in the whole of Carang Sewu."

"Thank you, Mom."

"I'll excuse you, Mr. Wali." Pamit the mother before leaving.

"Are we a good couple?" Ask them when they walk home.

"Neither emang? I'm a guy, you're a girl. I'm handsome, you're beautiful."

Ajeng laughed at the silly reply of Wira. The hero then tightened his embrace and continued their journey.

"We stopped by the square, baby? I'd like to say thank you to the same father who made this brooch."

wira's ears turned red hearing Ajeng kembalo call it dear. "But he doesn't sell there anymore.

"Huh?! Why?"

"Udah moved."

"Where?"

“Ke capital.”

“Hah?!”

“Pak Jamil reportedly got the trust to make jewelry belonging to a conglomerate family in the capital. He was picked up directly a few days ago.”

Wira then paused for a moment and put the brooch on Ajeng's shirt. “Cantics.”

“Brosnya?”

“You.”

Ajeng's face met red instantly. "Mas Wira can...."

Wira again walked ahead of Ajeng and this time Ajeng immediately jumped up to the back of Wira asking to be carried.

“Mas can I ask you something?”

Hero nodded.

“Do you really marry me because of Mr.Suzuki and Monica?”

The question that always tries to avoid it finally came out of Ajeng's lips. After what they had been through all this time, Wira felt she could no longer continue to lie to Ajeng. So he shook his head.

“You must be laughing if you know the reason.”

Ajeng pointed both his index and middle fingers into the air. “Promise not to laugh.”

“There used to be an ala-ala fortune teller who was invited to his company papa's birthday event. At that time I was a child and the astrologer said that I would meet my soul mate in a high place. And the first time I saw you that day, I immediately remembered the prophecy and was sure that we were a match.” Clearly Wira with a blush.

“So Mas Wira actually believes the same speech of the fortune teller?” Ajeng started laughing out loud.

"That right?! I promise not to laugh."

“Wait! So it's love at the first sight?”

“Ngga can be said to be first sight as well anyway... Do you remember our first meeting?”

“Aaargh!” Ajeng hid his reddened face from embarrassment on the shoulders of Wira. “Ngga, ngga. Mas Wira can't nginget it. I'm so embarrassed..”

The first time he saw Ajeng eating greedily, Wira immediately lost his appetite. Plus, the scene of Ajeng vomiting in the presence of Wira makes Wira feel more and more ilfil with the girl.

They arrive at the square and Wira lowers Ajeng and helps him sit on a park chair.

“But that morning, you were different. Beautiful, confident, graceful and makes me feel that I should protect you.” Imbuh Wira's.

Ajeng's heart was racing as Wira suddenly crouched down before him while clasping her hands. “Sorry because I didn't treat you properly all this time. If only I knew you –“

Ajeng had already closed the lips of Wira with his lips. He did not want to listen to the continuation of the Wira story. He just wanted to show that he also loved the man very much, no matter who he was and whatever his background.

The hero soon realizes his irreverence and begins to withdraw from Ajeng. Ajeng immediately restrained Wira to stay in his position. “Today I'm just an Ajeng, the woman you married on a –“ basis

This time Wira who had already kissed Ajeng's lips so that he could no longer continue his sentence. He did not want the word 'contract' to continue to haunt their marriage.

The hero released his lips. “And the woman I love the most.”

Counterattacks are no longer inevitable. Both of them enjoy the beautiful touch of lips which is a major violation in their marriage contract.
