Chapters. 21 All Pretend

Arsya doesn't understand what's going on. He just wanted to kiss his wife but the reaction given by Alisha seemed so excessive. Even now this woman is not stopping to shed tears.

The woman hid her face between her bent knees. His shoulders shook, seeing how loud his cries were.

Arsya who was astonished to try to calm down at least made his wife stop crying. He touched Alisha's shoulder, which was then brushed by her.

"Sorry" said Arsya. He immediately raised his hand up. As a sign he won't touch Alisha again.

"Wake up, let's sit on the couch" Arsya asked. This time he just looks and waits for Alisha to wake up on her own without her help.

Alisha shrunk her tears, she looked at Arsya still with a surging fear.

"Gue won't touch you." Arsya.

Slowly Alisha began to get up, she walked limply towards the sofa in Arsya's follow behind her. Sometimes I look at them for suspicion.

"Sit down, I'll get you a drink." Arsya came out to get a glass of water for Alisha.

He put it on the table, right in front of Alisha so that his wife could take it herself. Alisha pressed the water in the glass and then lowered her head while holding tightly to the empty glass in her hand.

As Arsya sat beside her, Alisha kept her distance. Seeing Alisha's attitude and reaction, Arsya finally decided to make room for his wife for herself.

"Gue will sleep outside" Arsya said. He stood up and picked up the pillow and blanket he used to sleep on.

"I was the one sleeping in the living room, Mas," said Alisha stopped Arsya's steps.

"Udah, you're in the room, let me sleep outside." Arsya insists. He stayed out with a pillow and a blanket.

Alisha cried again to see the door closed. Until when it will be like this. He put the glass in his hand and threw himself on the sofa.

Since they got married, only this time Arsya did not act cold. Even earlier when the man tried to spice it up, Arsya did it in a subtle way. But why is he still afraid.

Even since they were married, Arsya and herself have never had a husband and wife relationship. For Alisha it is very beneficial for him because he still can not eliminate the fear of Arsya touch.

But is this allowed in religion. Alisha could see the look in her husband's eyes, but she could not fulfill her duties as a wife.

Whether the decision to accept the proposal Arsya used to be too rushed. Alisha could not detect the trauma within herself. So now he just realized that this marriage is not easy for him to live. The beginning without love and full of trauma becomes a burden for himself.

In the depths of trouble that filled her mind Alisha fell into a sense of fatigue. He fell asleep on the couch alone.

In the morning when he came out of the room he had seen Arsya awake. Not as usual. The man was standing by the window calling someone.

Arsya immediately turned off her phone as soon as she saw Alisha.

"Wake up?" greet Arsya.

Which was answered nod by Alisha.

"Is it better?"

Alisha nodded back.

Alisha does not seem to want to interact too much with him, so Arsya chose to let Alisha alone. "Make me coffee" Arsya asked before the man entered the room.

Alisha does her morning chores like the previous routine, cleaning and making breakfast. Not forgetting the coffee that Arsya asked for. As if to avoid Arsya, once her husband was out of the room Alisha changed into the room.

He was ready to work as usual. He did not eat breakfast with Arsya because he had arranged it as a stock.

"For what?"

"I .. I miss them, Mas "

"Every night," answered Arsya with a view that did not switch from the screen of his phone.

"Thank you, Mum." Alisha extended her hand to say goodbye. He's been telling himself since last night that he and Arsya are married. He should not have avoided contact with the man.

Now, it was Arsya who stared doubtfully when Alisha wanted to say goodbye. He gave his hand to kiss Alisha. Before his wife let go of his hand, Arsya grasped tightly and made a slight gesture of pulling Alisha closer.

Alisha immediately tried to defend herself. Seen scared it re-emerged.

"Go" said Arsya who noticed the look in Alisha's eyes and then let go of his wife's hand.

This guy is insensitive. Alisha has struggled desperately to get rid of the fear in her, but Arsya is always looking for a gap to return to make Alisha trapped in fear.

After finishing his breakfast, Arsya goes straight to Jimmy's office.

"Where, Jim?" ask Arsya.

"It seems that the presence of Alisha last night has a positive impact on your career. On social media many support you with Alisha. My message, don't you ruin this already built image. Unless you're out of this entertainment world," replied Jimmy.

The smile of the sumringah is on Arsya's lips. It was unexpected that his plan to present Alisha in the press conference was successful. This is what he wants, public sympathy.

"Gue must admit that you're a real jerk. Your pretense succeeded in making them believe," said Jimmy. I don't know what his intentions are. Because his words are like a compliment but very annoying.

"Wife alone is beneficial, really has no heart, lo!" keep Jimmy.

Arsya was not offended. He laughed at what Jimmy said.

"Nih, an offer for lo and Alisha to appear on a talk show." Jimmy thrust out his phone so that Arsya could see the message sent to his manager.

"There are also photo shoot offers for perfume products. But they want you to be together with Alisha."

Arsya was a little surprised. There was an offer of advertising but for him and Alisha. Is not wrong.

"Lo is not wrong, Alisha is not a model how he got an offer?"

"Yes because they saw your acting last night. The romance you're showing is deceiving them."

Arsya seems to think. A moment later said, "Ok, you take it."

"Lo sure didn't ask Alisha. He wants to, does he agree?"

"That's my business. He's gonna want to."

"Lo's wife is also human, she has the right to refuse if she doesn't want to. Don't be forced!"

"Gue won't make a difference, he's my wife, I have to take it" replied Arsya confidently.

"Crazy, lo!" lips Jimmy.

Arsya doesn't care. This was his chance to make his name go back up. He must not waste an opportunity that did not come twice. Even if it had to involve Alisha, it wasn't about her. For him, his career is worth fighting for.
