A Wife's Escape

The Perfect Love

The graduation ceremony has been fully completed by afternoon. Keyran and Nisa have now returned home, but Keyran's behavior is slightly different. He turned into an irritable talk after discovering if his wife had time to shake hands with her ex-lover.

Nisa who had changed clothes and cleaned up all her graduation equipment, now just lay languid in bed. "Humph ... Keyran why?"

He just got back from out of town and went with me to graduation. I know if he's tired, if as always .. he'll always stick to me and ask to be pampered by me. But this time he was different, after coming home he went straight to his study, even reluctant to talk much with me.

Is he jealous and sulking and ignoring me like this? I explained that he just misunderstood. Usually if he is jealous also not up to this.

Nisa suddenly got up from the bed excitedly. "Alright, let's make that obscure jealous liquefier! I'll make him coffee and persuade him!"

Nisa rushes to the kitchen to prepare her homemade coffee that her husband has always liked. Even when he wanted to get into Keyran's office, he also acted more politely. If he usually entered without excuse, now he knocked on the door first.

TOK TOK!

"Darling .. can I come in?"

"Come in!"

Nisa went straight into the room as soon as Keyran invited her. He also walked with a frown and continuously smiled while serving coffee to the table.

"I'll make you coffee, let's drink!"

Keyran was silent, at a glance he glanced at the coffee and then sighed. "You don't have to act like this ...."

"Hm? I'm just doing the usual thing, is making coffee for you special?" Nisa confusion.

"You think I don't know if you have a hidden purpose? Just so you know, I totally understand if you intend to persuade me. You must be dying to come to that party your friend made. Or maybe you even put sleeping pills in this coffee so you can escape!"

"Ah .. about that you misunderstood. Where is there a sleeping pill mixed with coffee that has caffeine? Then ... It is true that if I make coffee for you I intend to persuade you. But not for the sake of going to the party! Rather than your disregard for me, I thought you were lazy to talk to me out of jealousy because I was shaking hands with Ricky."

"That's it, so you're looking at me like I'm jealous?" Keyran chuckles.

"Yes, aren't you jealous?"

"I was jealous, but that was it. After you were too much, I turned away from you for a moment you met another man."

"What happened to your attitude? If you're not jealous why are you ignoring me?" asked Nisa with a sullen look.

"I'm sorry if you feel neglected, I didn't mean it at all. It's just .. I'm thinking something."

"On what? Let me help you think!"

"Haha, there's no way. I just need some time to reflect, that's all. Oh yes, you hurry up and get ready!"

"Prepared for what?" nisa asked with a confused face.

"Didn't you really want to go to your graduation party?"

"You're letting me go?!" Nisa gawked as if in disbelief.

"Yes, but there are conditions. I'll drive you myself, I'll pick you up later. Anyway when I pick you up later, inevitably you have to go home, no matter how festive your party is!"

"Okay, I promise I'll obey! Thank you darling!" Nisa smiled and gave a kiss on her husband's cheek.

After Nisa leaves, Keyran sips the coffee Nisa left for her. With a frown he muttered, "I am still not calm even though Nisa has comforted me."

For the first time I felt this way, only this time I doubted myself. I realized when Nisa met Ricky at college. I also wonder why the two of them can still look each other in the eye and talk. Shouldn't they both hate each other? Or am I the only one who doesn't know Nisa enough?

Ck, when compared based on time ... I'm still far less than Ricky in knowing Nisa. Shit, I'm curious about what they've both been through.

***

The appointed night and hour came. In accordance with what Keyran said earlier, he also drove Nisa to the club. When Nisa was about to get out of the car, Keyran suddenly said, "Wait! Are you seriously going in that outfit?"

"Yes, of course! You don't wonder if I wear casual clothes, my people's parties are different from yours. There are no special rules in my party, I am the rules. If you're curious, you can come!"

"No, thank you. I still have other business. Keep your phone on, I'll call you later! And one more thing, don't drink too much alcohol!"

"Yes-yes .. I know," Nisa shifted closer and kissed Keyran's cheek. "Hehe, kiss before I stink of alcohol. See you later darling~"

Nisa then got out of the car, Keyran just run the car so sure if his wife has entered the club.

"I have to finish it tonight! Valen sent Ricky the address, hopefully he'll be at his house."

Keyran adds to the speed of his car to arrive at Ricky's apartment. About 15 minutes later he arrived at the scene, but he still seemed hesitant when he wanted to press the bell button.

"Damn it, having arrived here should not hesitate anymore!" muttered Keyran trying to establish himself.

Keyran finally pressed the doorbell, not long after Ricky opened the door.

"Say to come here tomorrow-" As soon as Ricky gawks, he can't believe who's visiting his apartment. "You?!"

"Yes, it's me" replied Keyran flatly.

"Wait a minute, how do you know my address?"

"I'm looking for my own. Of course anyone close to my wife will I thoroughly investigate her background."

"Ohh ... Then what business are you here for?"

"I want to discuss something important with you."

"I don't have time, please go!" Ricky was about to close the door but was arrested by Keyran.

"It's about Nisa!"

Just as Ricky's expression changed, he also opened the door wide for Keyran. "Come in!"

"..."

Damn it, you said there was no time, but when I told you about Nisa you changed. If it's not important, I won't visit.

Despite his annoyance, Keyran ends up staying in Ricky's apartment. He also noticed every corner of the apartment at his every step. As Keyran sat on the sofa, Ricky also served him a drink.

However, Keyran only looked and did not touch the drink in the form of water. Ricky who realized it immediately said, "Drink, water is the healthiest drink."

Keyran fell silent, and then he said, "Your apartment is nice, but with you now why not just move to a much more spacious and luxurious penthouse?"

"I'm capable now, but I don't want to. Although not so broad and simple, but this place holds a lot of memories."

Keyran stared cynically. "You mean the memories with Nisa?"

"I don't think I need to answer anymore" Ricky replied with a faint smile.

Chaotic, the conversation between the two men who were both cold was now chaotic. Instead of discussing things that need to be discussed, they actually satirize each other.

Until a few minutes later Ricky also said, "So you said you want to discuss important things about Nisa, why is it silent now?"

Keyran sighed. "That's it. . I don't know where to start. I have so much to ask. I don't know why but today I feel so weird. I feel like I don't know Nisa enough. Then I thought to you, you knew Nisa better than I did. So I wanted to ask you about Nisa."

"Are you unable to ask Nisa yourself directly? You two are one house." Ricky looked in wonder.

"How can I ask you something if Nisa never mentioned anything?"

"Truely, Nisa is indeed closed. We'll only know what happens if he wants to talk or slip. Tell you what, you want to know Nisa more deeply, right? What if we start with something simple?"

"Alright, if from the simple I already know about what he likes. Chocolate, vanilla, strawberry. Nisa likes chocolate the most, she also always wears vanilla fragrance perfume, the fruit she likes the most is strawberries. And the one thing he likes the most is wine."

"Haha ..." Ricky laughed while shaking his head.

"What's so funny?"

"Nisa doesn't like mangoes, she also hates dogs, and she ... Wait a minute, it's not things like this that I want to talk about!"

"Then about what? Quickly tell me, it's late and tomorrow I have to attend the seminar!" chirped Ricky impatiently.

"I'm surprised by you, your relationship with Nisa is over. But you two can still talk to each other, shouldn't you hate each other? Why is it that you can still be friends?"

"Real about it ..." Ricky sighed then turned his body to the sofa. "Friendships can be maintained when the interests of each other are aligned. The only unconditional relationship is love."

"You mean?" keyran asked with a confused face.

"I mean you don't have to think too much, between me and Nisa. If the two of us met, of course because there was an interest or other business. Unlike you, wanting to talk to Nisa doesn't need to require any special reason."

For a moment Keyran was stunned, then said, "I know if nothing happens between you, I believe in Nisa. But why do you have such a deep feeling? What exactly is going on between you?"

Ricky grinned. "Heh, you really want to know?"

"of course! The way I had a relationship with Nisa was arguably not purely on our own wishes, we were betrothed and then hated each other and gradually became in love with each other. But what about you? How can you conquer such a wild Nisa?"

Ricky smiled coldly, his eyes also glancing in another direction. "How yes ... The beginning of my relationship with Nisa is quite complicated, even I was made almost dead by his colleagues. And actually I was the one who first approached him for wanting to take advantage of him."

"What?! So you intend to use Nisa?! But for what?!"

"Wait a minute, I'll get you something to make you understand." Ricky got off the couch and went into his room, before long he came back with a document that looked quite thick.

Before Ricky handed Keyran the document, he said, "Survive me that you won't spread the contents of this document!"

"Would you swear everything?" keyran asked with a nervous expression.

"You want to know Nisa completely or not?!"

"Well, I swear I won't spread the contents of that document!"

Ricky also handed over the document, but Keyran immediately gawked as soon as he saw the outer cover writing of the document. "Sense research report ...?!"

"Read the next part then you'll understand" Ricky said in a resigned tone.

Keyran opened the first sheet, read the names of anyone involved and what the report was about. "Is this one of your scientific projects?"

"True, it was also my only project that failed. But I'm grateful it failed" Ricky said with a bitter smile.

"But here is also written the name of Prof. Dr. Arman Haydan, M.Psi., M. M. According to his degree he's a graduate in psychology, while you're a surgeon. Isn't this a little unrelated?"

"You're right, that scientific project was the last project before I got medical certification. Being a doctor if you want to get a good placement also requires a relationship, therefore I accept the offer of professor Arman who is a psychiatrist who has enough influence in the world of medicine. He's also my friend's father, Aslan."

"That's so ..." Keyran then continued reading, his eyes widened when he saw a familiar name. "Trouble Lady, she's the subject of this research! But isn't the Trouble Lady nicknamed Nisa on campus because it often causes trouble? So that means Nisa's the guinea pig of your project?!"

Ricky lowered his head. "Right, it was actually the Trouble Lady's nickname that I was the one who made it as a pseudonym for Nisa. Now you're Nisa's husband, so I think you deserve to know about this dark past ...."

"Hey, then what is the purpose of research that is not in accordance with your field?!" ask Keyran with a sharp tone.

"I understand why if you don't feel welcome, but please calm down. I'll explain everything in detail."

"Well, quickly explain!" Keyran crossed his arms and looked at Ricky with a cynical look.

"As I said earlier, I did it because of the influence that professor Arman had. He chose me to do this research with Nisa as his subject. At first I refused after knowing the real purpose of professor Arman, but for the world of science .. that goal raises the pros and cons."

"What is the purpose?!" keyran asked impatiently.

"Delivering human feelings!"

"What?! If a heartless human could be called a human again?! What kind of crazy idea is that?!"

"Yes .. is crazy. But did you know that all the inventors were originally considered insane? Man has no wings but wants to fly, eventually he created a plane that is beneficial to human civilization. Think about it, with feelings, people can feel sad, depressed, angry and afraid. Humans who have such fragile feelings can already create advanced technologies like today."

"But just imagine if people have no feelings! He will focus on science and create a new breakthrough for the world! That's what professor Arman said that hypnotized me. The feeling of being lost is that civilization is advancing, but on the other hand humans are losing their empathy and human rights. Because that raises the pros."

"Sad, you're really heartless for doing that project!" Keyran grumbled in annoyance.

"Haha .. is indeed miris. The old me was only after what I thought made sense. Just imagine if the project succeeds, then my name will be engraved in the great history of the early progress of human evolution."

"Well, how did Nisa get involved? I'm sure Nisa wasn't that stupid until she wanted to be a guinea pig, you must have tricked her!"

Ricky took a deep breath and said, "You're right, I tricked him. Because it raises the pros and cons, there are still some acquaintances of professor Arman who are willing to become sponsors. I got a lot of support and facilities so I could fake my identity to get close to Nisa."

"My initial goal was to get close to earning Nisa's trust and then leading her to the professor as the final line. But the more I noticed Nisa .. I started to realize that I had feelings for her. In this stage I went through a lot of things I never imagined in my entire life, which was dealing with gangsters."

"I finally know why the professor didn't point to his son but me, it's because the subject of the study itself is very dangerous. Wrong in the slightest, it was likely that I would vanish without a trace. When I realized this I wanted to stop, but instead Nisa looked for me and said she was interested in me."

"Finally because of my selfishness in wanting to continue with Nisa, I continued with the project. And as Nisa became more open to me, she wanted to tell me about her childhood, even asking me to guide her to be a good girl."

"Of course I agree, when else do I get a chance to make a gangster repent. But this was known to Nisa's colleagues so much that they hated me, even I had attempted murder several times."

"I was desperate to give up, but once again my feelings for Nisa were able to hold me back. Even now I still imagine her happy smile when I first gave her a teddy bear. He said it was the first time he had gotten something comfortable hugged. I can't figure out how hard her parents are at educating her."

"Is this story real?" keyran asked in disbelief.

"Of course it's real, why do you think I could love Nisa until now?! It's all because I think about what I've been through with him."

"Ohh ... Then how can the project fail?"

"Because of my carelessness and selfishness, I can't continue to use Nisa. I ended up being honest with her, and unexpectedly Nisa was interested instead. But that was precisely as the starting point of his revenge."

"Revenge?" ask Keyran curious.

"Yes, Nisa's smart enough to want to use me back to meet professor Arman, the mastermind behind all this. Then when they meet, Nisa instead craze and attack the professor until her hand is seriously injured. Then without me thinking, Nisa's father also knew the professor and took revenge for her daughter."

"Then how's the professor doing?"

"He resigned from the position of professor on campus, his professor's degree was revoked. And the scar on his hand couldn't go away. The problem does not get bigger because of an agreement between his father Nisa and the professor. I don't know what it is, but thank God it doesn't involve me at all."

"Emc ... Wait a minute, why did that crazy psychiatrist choose Nisa as the subject?" Keyran.

"This one was also beyond my expectations. The first reason, because Nisa had once consulted with him so she had Nisa's medical records. Then another reason, professor Arman is the ex-lover of his mother Nisa. He's planning on getting revenge through Nisa."

Keyran jerks. "W-what?! There was that kind of thing too?!"

"Maybe it's one of the consequences if a relationship doesn't end in a good way. The hatred that continues. Oh right, before you go it's good if you read the report in its entirety. Everything I know about Nisa's behavior and emotions is written on it."

"I don't want to" Keyran said, handing over the report to Ricky.

"Why? You said you wanted to know Nisa better?"

"Huh, I can already guess the contents are not far from your love story. Reading it will only make my eyes sting!"

"Haha, I think you can go. I don't think there's anything you need to worry about, not knowing Nisa it's just your feelings. As long as Nisa's love for you is perfect, you don't have to doubt her."

"The perfect love?" ask Keyran.

Ricky turned his face. "Don't ask me about it, my answer would be embarrassing!"

"Just answer me, I'm not leaving until you answer this one!" Keyran insisted.

"Alright, but first I'll explain if everyone has a different view of love. Perfect love .. to me it is like faith. Faith is when we believe it from the heart, speak it verbally and show it by works."

"It's good if it is! I'm sure if in Nisa's heart there is only me, everything she does also proves her love. And he also said ..." Suddenly Keyran stopped talking, looking like a daze.

Wait a minute, when did Nisa ever tell you she loved me? Why can't I remember it? Shit, I just realized that Nisa has never said she loves me.
