Best Defense

Its hard

Franda came out of the bathroom after almost an hour of soaking to calm herself down. He saw Nino collecting the broken glass from the table he had smashed earlier. Franda was so cute, she walked out of the room and left her husband there staring sadly at her.

"Sir, I want to eat spaghetti. Can you make it?" said Franda asked for help to Mbak Ika who happened to be in the kitchen when he came down.

"In the meantime, ma'am." replied Ma'am Ika, immediately prepare the spaghetti ingredients that will be cooked.

Franda sat in the family room, turned on the tv and watched as she waited for Ma'am Ika to cook her food. He did not really watch, his mind floated far away even though his eyes looked at the tv that aired a comedy show in front of him. His gaze shifted to the phone ringing beside him.

"Yes?" he said after picking up the phone.

"You okay?" sean asked, it was the man who called.

"Yes, I'm fine. I'm sorry for that, I don't know why he was there" Franda apologized as she recalled Nino coming and messing up their lunch.

"It's okay... You made up with him?" asked Sean curiously.

"No, I'm getting more and more upset with him. How could he want to divorce me on the grounds that he couldn't give me a child, I didn't understand his way of thinking" Franda replied with an annoyed face.

"You have to understand his feelings too, maybe he feels guilty for lying to you all this time" said Sean wise, He really wants to be with Franda but he also does not want to see the woman sad. Sean understands that Franda loves her husband so much.

"Ahh, stop! I get tired of talking about it all the time. What are you doing today? Is there a new case, detective Sean?" franda asked jokingly, He did not know that Sean was not a real detective as he had known all along.

"No, I didn't take any jobs after you asked me to take care of your problems. I had to focus on one thing in order to get it done well." Sean replied lying, the only person he helped was Franda even though the one who did it was his man.

"Well, it looks like I got an exclusive service from you, hm?" franda said while looking at her husband who walked over and muttered something.

"Sean, I'll call you later. There's something I have to do, bye!" Franda continued and hung up the phone.

"You talked to the man at the restaurant? Looks like you guys are very close" said Nino who was already sitting next to Franda.

"It's none of your business!" answer Franda ketus.

"Well, it will be my business when my wife tries to avenge my betrayal" Nino said casually.

"Don't you equate me with you, you think I'd do something as lowly as you? Hah, sleep with your secretary while your wife is waiting for you at home!" Franda stared cynically at Nino.

"Don't talk about it again, I won't forget my mistakes even if you don't remember them." Nino looked down and closed her eyes.

"I won't forget it!" snapped Franda, his voice made Mba Ika who was cooking surprised.

"Sir, can you leave us both?" nino said to the housekeeper, He does not want their quarrel to be seen by anyone.

"But, Sir..." Mbak Ika had not finished his words when Nino returned to voice.

"Leave it, I'll finish it later." the order was firm, and Mbak left immediately. Nino looked at Franda who was not happy with her.

"Darling, I'm tired of having to go on like this. I don't know what to do for you to forgive me, I don't want us to fight every day. What am I supposed to do, honey?" nino's question glazed over, her face showing an extremely depressed expression.

"You think I'm not tired? You think I'm enjoying my heartache for what you're doing? You say it like I'm playing with you." Franda went back to rage.

"I couldn't help it when I saw that disgusting face of yours!" Franda threw an annoyed face when saying that.

Nino was very hurt to hear the words of his wife but he understood her attitude as well because of her. Nino just bowed down and did not say anything.

Franda who realized it glanced at her husband, she began to regret her outrageous words.

"I'm sorry" he said flatly.

"It's okay, I do deserve it." Nino replied still bowed and digested the entire chain of events that led to their own self-inflicted bickering.

Franda felt even more guilty after hearing that. She faced her husband, raised her leg next to the sofa and grabbed Nino's hand.

"I didn't mean it that way, I just couldn't accept any of this yet. During my marriage to you I never imagined this would happen to us, I always believed you would respect me as your wife and you would take care of yourself from any woman, I just didn't expect you'd do it, honey." said Franda, Nino could hear his wife was very sad at the moment.

"I'm sorry, forgive your stupid husband, I'm really sorry, honey." Nino stroked Franda's face with her thumb.

"That's it, I don't want to talk about it right now. Can you prepare my spaghetti? I'm really hungry." said Franda.

"Happy" replied Nino smiling and immediately kedapur finish the cuisine that was left by Mbak Ika.

Franda continued to observe her husband who was focusing on cooking, the sight of it slightly touched her. Mistakes made by Nino seemed to evaporate when he saw how He obeyed his request, however all this time Nino always spoiled Franda, not the slightest change even though He had betrayed behind without being realized by his wife.

Franda is well aware of Nino's true love for her, but she cannot take the betrayal she has taken for granted, but Franda is unable to determine what steps she should take towards their marriage. Surviving or separating would be just as difficult for them, there was no easy choice to make.

Franda took a deep breath, She walked up to her husband and hugged from behind.

"I love it when we're like this, can I hope it'll be like this forever?" said Franda. She leaned on her husband's back, enjoying the always warm body.

"Darling, what are you talking about? Of course we'll continue like this!" nino replied as she continued to focus on cooking, She does not want to ruin the moment by taking her words seriously.

"I can't just trust you, I haven't been able to forgive you and forget everything, but I'm not ready to lose you either, I don't know I'm confused with myself" Franda said softly, followed by another deep breath.

"Dear, don't torture yourself for my mistakes. I'm guilty, I'll follow whatever you say." Nino turned around, her hands cupped the face of her petite-looking wife in her big palm.

"You're still in touch with him? Did he call you?" franda asked hesitantly, He is ready if Nino says something that hurts him.

"No, just one time when I asked him to stop working. He didn't call me after that either. Honey, Jenny really feels guilty, she asked me to meet you with her but I didn't want to" Nino said honestly.

"Why?" Franda.

"I don't want to add to the problem, honey. You will definitely not be comfortable meeting him, and I'm also worried about you just in case you can't help but hit him. I don't want anything to happen to you" Nino explained, but of course Franda won't believe it easily.

"You sure you're worried about me, and not the other way around?" Franda asked revealing her suspicions.

"Dear, trust me! I'm just worried about you, I don't mind if you scold him but it'll be different when you hit him. Jenny could not take it and sue you, and I won't let that happen. So, don't think weird!" nino said as she touched his wife's forehead.

"Aww, sick!" Franda hit her husband back in the chest, slowly but quite noticeably. They both laughed after that.
