Asa (Paying Wife Only)

Eps 5's

This morning was the first morning Via became the wife of the Askara Star.

Via will carry out his duties as a wife. Even though the stars won't care. She was determined to be a good wife to her husband.

It started this morning. Via immediately rushed towards the kitchen early in the morning. She wants to prepare breakfast for her husband.

"Good morning. Can I help you?" ask her when she sets foot in the kitchen.

The servants were surprised to see the presence of Via in the kitchen. It's still five in the morning.

"Miss, why are you here? You better go back to the room, Miss." The waiter did not want to get angry from his master when he found out that Via was wandering in the kitchen.

"I want to help you. Just after the dawn prayer I was confused as to what to do. So I decided to help you guys cook. And just so you know. My cooking is champion. There were already many who liked my cooking," always Via made the servants throw one another a glance and smile.

"Alright if Miss forces. Then Miss can help us" said one of the servants.

Via was so happy to be able to help the waiters in the kitchen. Because previously Via was used to doing the same thing when with his mother at home.

And before long breakfast was ripe and ready to serve. I cooked breakfast this morning.

Via hopes the Bintang will love his cooking.

Via rushed to take a shower after serving breakfast at the dinner table.

The stars are sitting at the dining table. Via was there too. But since then the stars did not greet even staring at Via.

Via understood with the attitude of the stars. Because Via knows that the Star may never have thought it existed. Surely Bintang only thinks of him as a stranger he paid to help him.

But Via doesn't mind all that. He will continue to do his duty as a good wife.

Via took the plate and filled it with food to give to her husband. This is the first time that Via has brought food to a man. And that man is her husband. The man who first took his heart.

Via put a plate containing the food in front of the star. With a happy smile Via hopes the Stars will love his cooking.

But without Via guessing, the Star did not heed the food in front of him. Even the Stars took a plate and filled it with food.

"Get rid of your plate! It prevents me from eating!" the stars are so cold.

The smile that had been engraved on Via's lips faded. It turned out that her husband did not receive the food he had taken with great difficulty.

Via finally took the plate containing the food and brought it to his front.

She looked at her husband who said nothing more. The star now began to eat his breakfast which he took himself.

Via was very disappointed with the attitude of the Stars. Her husband did not consider her to exist. But it was okay, at least Via saw her husband eating his breakfast voraciously. And that was the cooking he had cooked.

Via finally ate the food she had brought for her husband earlier.

The star stood up after finishing breakfast. While Via is still not finished eating the food on his plate.

Seeing the star that seemed to be about to leave, Via called him.

"Bi-stars... Can I work like I did before." Via asked courageously. Although actually he was so hesitant because the face of the Star now looks scary to him.

Only that word emerged from the mouth of the Star. Then he rushed away without looking back at Via who was staring at his back who was starting to move away.

Via felt like a worthless being in front of her husband. It can even be seen from the Star's gaze which implies that her husband is so sick of seeing her.

Via just sighed for a moment. He knows who he is. Via is indeed the wife of the Star, but that is just status only. Because the stars never thought they existed. He's just a paid wife.

Via doesn't want to think about it anymore. Though in fact his heart ached so much with the attitude of the Stars towards him.

Via finally decided to do the activity that he always did as usual, which was working in a restaurant owned by his schoolmates first.

Via rushed to head to his workplace restaurant. He did not want to think too much about the life he was living right now.

"Vi, can you deliver this food to table number five" said Roni manager of the restaurant where she works.

"Alright sir," said Via smiling wily.

They are like brothers and sisters. Some people even mistakenly think they are lovers. But that was never the Via. Via already considers Roni as his own brother.

Via swiftly brought the order to table number five.

Seen from the side of the pair of lovers who look so friendly talking to each other at the table.

While Via just shook his head.

"Your Order Sir, Miss. Enjoy," said Via without staring at the couple who became visitors to the restaurant.

Via was about to step back into his place. But the voice of someone called out to him and made him stop.

"Via, so you work here?" said someone who sounded from table number five.

Via frowned. Then he looked towards the visitor who ordered the food.

Really Via did not think that it turned out that the lovers were her husband and step-sister.

Via was stunned for a moment. Then try to smile and talk as quietly as possible. They are visitors to the restaurant where they work.

"Yes, I do work here Miss. So enjoy the meal at our restaurant, excuse me Miss, sir," said Via forcing a smile. Then he immediately rushed away from there.

Via immediately ran towards the toilet. He held his own chest.

"Why does it feel so painful. I realized I'm nobody. But it's wrong that I have feelings of love towards my own husband. Is it wrong to love a man who loves another? I am a new person in his life. But I sincerely love him God. Why are you bringing this feeling to me?!" Via crying. It felt like her chest was so claustrophobic considering how affectionate her husband and step-sister were.

I have never felt what it feels like to fall in love. And now he feels he has fallen in love with the wrong man. A man who has had his heart by another woman.

And Via hated herself for not being able to prevent her heart from loving the Star, her husband.

"No Via, you can't cry. You must accept the consequences if you love a man whose heart has been filled by another woman. You're nothing but worthless ashes. Be aware Via, be aware!" Via tries to remind himself.

He cannot be weak in facing his life.
