BEING THE CEO'S MISTRESS

Shelter House

This Saturday afternoon Kayra and Erlangga plan to visit the Nugraha house to meet the invitation of Arina and her husband. Due to the insistence of his wife, Erlangga finally complied with the wishes of Kayra who wanted to come to visit and stay one night at the Nugraha house.

" Mom, Kayra and Mas Erlangga said yes?! Mommy is it okay we stay? Or do you want to come with us to Mama's house?" asked Kayra who could not bear to leave her mother.

Actually from the beginning Kayra had asked Ibu Sari to visit Arina's house, but Ibu Sari who felt self-conscious about her position refused Kayra's request. Ibu Sari also wanted to make room for Arina to get closer to Kayra.

" Mom's okay, son. Mom's not alone here, is she? There is Atik, there is Diah, there is Siti, Bi Jumi and Bi Onah. How could you feel lonely?" Sari's mother smiled as she rubbed the back of Kayra who was embracing her.

" You have fun there. Greetings to Ms. Arina and family .." continued Ms. Sari.

" Yes, Mom. Kayra will convey .." said Kayra

" We're leaving now, honey?" Erlangga approached his wife and mother-in-law who were still embracing.

" Yes, Mas." Kayra took off her arms from Sari's mother and kissed Sari's hand. " Kayra's leaving first huh, Mom. Assalamualaikum .." pamit Kayra.

" Waalaikumsalam, take care of the car, Mr. Koko." Ibu Sari answered while telling Koko who just finished putting the suitcase into the trunk.

" Ready, Mom!" koko Tehim.

" We're leaving first, Mom. Ariston ..." Now it was Erlangga's turn to say goodbye and kiss her mother-in-law's hand.

" Waalaikumsalam, be careful, son. Titip Kayra's." Sari's mother also told her daughter-in-law.

" Ready, Mom. I will always protect this beautiful Mother's child." Erlangga wrapped her hand on Kayra's shoulder while chuckling. Then they both walked towards the car that was parked in front of the terrace of the house.

Currently Kayra and Erlangga are already on their way to Bandung with Koko driving her car.

" Don't you remember the first time we went to Bandung?" kayra asked who since getting into the car holding hands with her husband.

" Hmmm, when? Have we been to Bandung before?" Erlangga just do not remember if they had gone both to Bandung.

" Iiiih, I can't remember, anyway!?" Kayra poked her lips. Because for him every moment with Erlangga was always recorded in his memory.

" I forgot if we'd been to Bandung together? What after marriage? Or on a job visit, honey?" Erlangga who is always preoccupied with office activities is indeed forgotten about that moment.

" Pak Koko, Pak Koko remember not if we had been to Bandung together?" kayra asked trying to test the memory of his personal driver, because when he left at that time, Koko also drove them.

" I remember, Madam. When the Madam attended the wedding invitation of the Madam's friend, right?" Koko remembers better, because Koko was more focused on watching Kayra at that time.

" Tuh, Mr. Koko just remember, Mas own time forgot, anyway? Is my husband or isn't he?" Kayra suddenly sulked.

" Of course your husband is me, Mr. Koko's time!?" Erlangga immediately protested, but seeing his wife flicking his lips, he immediately hugged his wife.

" I'm sorry, honey. I forgot about that. Yes, I remember now. Don't be angry!?" Erlangga kissed Kayra's cheek to persuade her not to continue sulking.

" You have to understand that your husband has too much to think about especially when it comes to work. So you hope to understand? But you don't worry, I remember our wedding date, I remember your birthday date, I remember when we went on our honeymoon, I also remember your HPL schedule, really" Erlangga mentioned what he remembered so that his wife would not be angry with him anymore.

While Koko who glanced from the rearview mirror held her smile to see the attitude of her boss who seemed to be subdued and lost his duty if he had faced his wife.

" Mother's birthday, did Mas know?" Now Kayra asked him what he was sure Erlangga didn't know.

" I forgot, all this time you didn't mention and celebrate Mom's birthday, so I don't know." Erlangga grinned.

" Tuh, right! Not everything I remember."

" Yes, yeah, sorry, honey. When is Mother's birthday, later I record it on my phone so as not to forget. Mr. Koko, Mr. Koko will also record the date of birth of my mother-in-law. Same is Arina's birthday too!" Erlangga even told Koko to record important dates for Kayra.

" Okay, Mister." Koko replied still holding back her smile seeing Erlangga who was wrong to face his wife.

" Mother's date of birth is three weeks after my date of birth, Mas. If Mama ..." Kayra frowned, as she herself did not have time to ask Arina's date of birth.

" I forgot to ask Mama her date of birth, you know. Later Mas remind me to ask the date of birth of Mama and Papa Nugraha yes, Mas!?" It seems angry Kayra has receded at this time just because Kayra forgot to ask her birth mother's birthday date.

" Mr. Koko, take note! Don't forget to remind me to ask for the date of birth of Ms. Arina and Mr. Nugraha!" Erlangga again told Koko to remind him.

" Okay, sir." said Koko back.

" Oh yeah, Mas. Before we go to Mama's house, stop by Mom's house for a minute, huh, Mas!? I want to see his condition now. Hmmm, I can use the monthly money that Mas gave for the renovation of the house Mom no, Mas?" Kayra asked her husband's permission to use the monthly money Erlangga had given her to repair her parents' house that had been burning.

" Why are you using that money, honey? For the renovation of Mother's house, let me take care of it later. The monthly money I love, let you keep it for your needs, Kayra." Erlangga certainly did not agree Kayra used the money she gave to Kayra as 'fuck money' Kayra during her wife who was rationed one hundred million rupiahs every month.

" Don't want to trouble you." Kayra did not feel well her husband who had to bear the cost of renovating the family home of her mother and foster father

" Dear, I'm your husband. Your problem, my problem too. What do you say you want to renovate? Later I told Mr. Bondan to arrange to find someone to renovate the house.

" I want the house to be our halfway house if we vacation to Bandung with our children later, Mas." Kayra mentioned her hopes for the home of the parents who nurtured her since infancy.

" Why not stay at your Mama's house, honey?" Erlangga tidied his wife's hair. He was surprised at his wife's wishes.

" It's not good, Mom. Mama is my biological mother, but Papa Nugraha is Papa Stepdaughter, Mas. And there were other Mama and Papa's children in that house. Not good if you have to stay there if you play to Bandung. We better have our own house, right?" Kayra explained why she chose to have her own place for her and her family in Bandung. Perhaps the situation would be different if Nugraha was his real father as well. Kayra was not negative-minded, just feeling bad about the Nugraha family and the other Nugraha children.

" I'm like you too, honey. Especially if there's Rivaldi there." Of course Erlangga agreed with his wife's perspective.

***

Around eleven o'clock in the afternoon Kayra had arrived in Bandung. And in accordance with her request to the husband, they arrived first to the old house of Ibu Sari, until the car driven by Koko arrived in front of the house building whose rear was burned.

Erlangga helped his wife get out of the car, and embrace Kayra who now stands staring at the house owned by parents who he thought was his biological parents.

Although the land area of the house was not too broad, but in the house since childhood Kayra got warmth as a child from Ariyanto's father and Sari's mother.

Kayra felt that what her father-in-law said was right. Although Ariyanto's father and Sari's mother are foster parents, they love her like their own child.

" Your father?"

Kayra turned her head when she heard someone call her name.

" It's a work isn't it?" The woman seemed hesitant to greet Kayra while looking at Kayra from head to toe, especially in the protruding belly of Kayra.

" Mr Wati?" Kayra recognized the woman who greeted her.

" Are you right, Kayra? Geez, are you pregnant, Kayra? You're married? Why not invite us here?" Wati approached Kayra then held onto Kayra's arm.

" Yes, Ma'am. We did not have a party, just an ordinary qobul ijab," said Kayra turned to her husband.

Wati follows Kayra's line of sight until she finds a handsome man she suspects is Kayra's husband. Wati frowned as if he had seen Erlangga's handsome face.

" Kayra, is this your husband?" his curious question looked at Erlangga. If seen from the appearance of Erlangga as well as the car he uses, it can be concluded if Erlangga must be a rich man.

" Yes, Ma'am. This is my husband. Erlangga ..." Kayra introduced Erlangga to Wati.

" Erlang." Erlangga extended her hand towards Wati making Wati stunned. Because people like Erlangga would shake hands with him.

" Sati." Doubtfully Wati shook Erlangga's hand until she felt Erlangga's hand was smoother than hers.

" She's the one who told me when this house was on fire, Mas. Ms. Wati and some of the residents here who helped bring Mom to the hospital." Kayra explained how the role of Wati and some residents in the village who played a big role in petrifying her mother when she was hit by a disaster.

" Thank you for your help with my wife's parents." Erlangga then expressed his gratitude to Wati.

" The Same, Sir. Fellow citizens here, we are obliged to help each other" said Wati.

" Oh yeah, how's your mom, Kayra? Sari's mother is healthy?" Wati then asked about Ms. Sari.

" Thank God be healthy, Ma'am." replied Kayra.

" Do you want to renovate this house, Kayra?" tanya Wati because of Kayra's current arrival.

" The plan is so, Ma'am. Let us go back to Bandung to stay here." Kayra explained.

" Hmmm ..." Wati approached Kayra and whispered, "Kayra, your husband is not your boss you ever show the picture to Ma'am huh?" tanya Wati was curious because she had started to remember Erlangga's face.

" Yes, Ma'am." Kayra blushed in shame.

" So you married your boss? Then it's true that Ma'am's guess that your boss is concerned about you there must be something about you, Kayra." Wati felt that what he said was true became reality.

" Yes, Ma'am." Kayra said back.

" But, didn't you say that your boss was married, Kayra?" Wati asked in a whisper because it was not good to be heard by Erlangga.

" They've split, Mother." Kayra did not want to talk at length about her initial relationship with Erlangga.

" What about your husband's family, Kayra? Can they accept you well?" Wati was curious, because he thought it was not easy for ordinary people like Kayra to be the wife of a boss, despite having a beautiful face.

" Thank God they are good, ma'am. Especially now that I'm pregnant with their first grandchild." Kayra smiled indicating that she was happy with her marriage to Erlangga.

" Thank God if that's the case, I'm glad to hear it, Kayra." Wati rubbed Kayra's arm.

" Dear, are we going to Mama Arina's house now?" Seeing his wife continue to chat, Erlangga invited his wife to immediately go to Nugraha's house.

" A minute, Mas. I want to meet Mr. RT and Ms. RT first." Kayra asked her husband's permission to meet with the RT chief there.

While around them have begun many residents around who gathered because they saw luxury cars enter the street in their housing while wondering whose car was parked in front of the house Ibu Sari, especially when they saw Wati was seen chatting with a pregnant woman who was standing near the car next to a handsome man like a prince who came down from heaven.
