Betrayal on the First Night

Gap Separator

“What's up, Dew, Aby.”

The friendly greeting roused Aby from shock. He reached out to shake the new boss in public. What Aby discovered today was truly an unexpected surprise. How could he not know that Doctor Allan is the owner of the place where he works.

“So Om owner May-Day?” Unknowingly the question was thrown from the lips of Dew.

Doctor Allan only commented on the friendly smile. His attitude has not changed at all, either in a formal atmosphere like now or at home.

“Sorry, Om. Uh, Sir. I just found out today who owns May-Day,”, said Aby sungkan. Makes Doctor Allan chuckle.

“Do not bother like this. Call Om as usual. Aren't you, Dew?”

“Iya, Om.” Dew lowered head. I don't know why he suddenly became awkward. Before, they were very close. Even Doctor Allan and Mother Giany have been considered Dew like their own parents, and vice versa.

Doctor Allan patted Aby on the shoulder. “Pak Desta often told me, that your performance is very good and deserves to get promotion up the post. And I agree with the opinion of Mr. Desta.”

“Thank you, Om,” replied Aby.

“Then you enjoy the party, yes. I still have something to talk about with Mr. Desta,” he said very friendly. “Oh yes, Dew. Ahead of the birth of a lot of light exercise, yes,” he added.

“Iya, Om. Thank you.”

The evening event continued on with great fanfare. Doctor Allan appeared and surprised many people. He also introduced the God who was his youngest child.

Everyone was made even more surprised, because in the company only a few people who know the status of God who is a subsidiary of the company owner.

The god worked in the company without using the father's big name. In fact, he had to compete healthily with some people to get a position now.

"Hi, Dew." The cheerful greeting managed to distract Dewun. He looked at the source of the voice. Vania seemed to be walking towards him by holding the arms of the Gods.

"Vania." Dew smiled happily, then greeted Vania with a hug. Finally he met someone he knew. Because since then I feel uncomfortable with some other staff who sometimes set their eyes on him.

Aby and the God chose to chat together. So too with Vania and Dewun. Both chose to go to another corner of the table, where there were various fruits and drinks.

"You just came, huh?" ask Dew, while pouring sausage over pieces of fruit.

"Udah from earlier. But I'm meeting Maysha's sister Giany's mother behind."

Dew glanced towards the corner that Vania pointed at. There looked Mother Giany and was sitting with her eldest daughter.

"You'll be born soon, huh?"

"Congratulations, yes. Hope the delivery is good."

Dew also agreed to the speech of Vania.

"You are the same God? I see progress."

Vania smiled shyly.

"The Lord's brother is still stiff. Sometimes the bummer," said Vania, made Dew laugh.

Emvun is also happy to see Vania who is increasingly showing progress. Vania, who used to love being alone and angry, is now transformed into a jolly girl.

Arriving at home ....

“Darling, may I ask you something?” aby asked, looking at Dew who was sitting at the dressing table while cleaning up the rest of the makeup stuck on her face.

“You ask what, Mas?”

“You are long neighbors with Om Doctor, indeed you do not know that Om Doctor owner May-Day?”

“I don't know. That's why I asked you.”

Aby still looked at his wife in a bit of wonder. “How can you not know, even though you are neighbors with them since childhood. Same kids Om Doctor you are also near.”

“Near does not mean you have to know everything, right. After all you are also close to Kak Dewa but do not know that Kak Dewa is the owner of the company where you work.”

“Yes too, sih.”

Aby rests her back on the bed. Then looked at the wife who was busy combing her hair. Ever since knowing the fact that Doctor Allan is the owner of the company where he works, insecurity slowly seeps into the heart.

For some reason Aby suddenly compared herself to a God. Thinking that Dewun had not married her back then, perhaps she was now married to a God and living a happier life than he was. Moreover, Aby had betrayed Dewun on their first day.

Little does Aby know that the Gods once harbored a taste for Dew. Even the Gods once blatantly waved war flags if Aby continued to hurt his wife.

Although Dewun once said that he never had more feelings for God, still the strange taste appeared.

“I feel very guilty about Dew because it has become a gap between him and Dewa.”
