Black Swan's

The Affair (One Hundred Thirty One)

            Sian punched hard at the steering wheel of his car while shouting as loudly as he could with a heartbreaking tone. His heart ached knowing the fact of his wife's pregnancy. Obviously the fetus is not his. They have not touched each other for months to channel their burning desires. Then suddenly Olivia got pregnant like magic. It is impossible for a fairy to come in the middle of the night, as in the fairy tale children to give a baby in the belly of his wife.

            “Aahh yes..” Sian muttered bitterly at the empty air. Olivia just told him she met a guy in Miami. It was clearly the man who had planted the seed in his wife's womb. But who? That question is still disturbing the inner Sian since earlier. He was very sure that Olivia actually knew who the man was. Is someone from the Ford Company? His subordinates? batin Sian bitter. He could not imagine how satisfied the man's face was because all this time managed to fool him easily. The man was playing with his wife behind him. Then they laughed at his stupidity.

            “Sial!” sian was angry. He then immediately came out of the hospital yard and stepped on his powerful gas pedal splitting the deserted streets of Las Vegas. Now he knows where he's going, to see Leticia. Only the woman can calm him down when he is upset with the terrible mess of his household.

            “I'll come.”

            “Wah wah wah... after a long time you ignored me, finally you came to me too.” said the woman was excited. He quickly got up from his sleeping position and applied red lipstick on his pale lips. After that she immediately chose the sexiest evening dress from the old wooden closet in the corner of her room.

            “You ****** goddamn*, prepare brandy for me. I want everything ready when I come.”

            “Aye aye captain. Do you want anything else? Caramel popcorn may be for friends watching adult movies.” bargain Leticia with her teasing accent. He glimpsed a pile of his very messy tapes on his dresser. For a long time he had not touched them because no friends were watching him come to his house.

            “Terlarah. Do whatever you want!”

            And pip, connection disconnected. Sian immediately drove his car swiftly towards Leticia's apartment which he had memorized outside his address head. No one will look for him there. Even Aciel, he won't know where he's going tonight.

-00-

            “Ace, can you stay today?”

            Eden took over the tie that Aciel had just pulled out of his closet drawer, then he wrapped his hand spoiled on Aciel's shoulder.

            “Your birthday is still three weeks away, Ed. Don't use that excuse to keep me at home.”

            Eden pursed her lips pouting in front of Aciel. The release of the two hands that had previously hung around Aciel's neck, then forced the right hand of Aciel and placed the hand on his stomach. “Si twins are fighting inside there, scrambling to get out first from her mother's stomach.

            “I feel nothing.” exclaimed ignorant Aciel, but then he immediately kissed Eden's lips at a glance and gently rubbed his wife's distended stomach. “Is this a sign that you will soon give birth?”

            “Entahlah. It can, it can't. But today I want you home with me. Can you, dear Aciel?” woo Eden with a seductive face. Her flirtatious smile she showed it blatantly to Aciel. And his mischievous hand began to lift to caress the chest of Aciel's field for the man to choose to stay at home with him.

            “Yes, this pregnant woman.” chuckles Aciel Aciel tickled. “The remains of your naughty soul are still in there.” said Aciel while peeping the fingers of Eden alternately. The woman immediately cheered in excitement as her strategy to hold back Aciel was successful. The man immediately threw his original suit on the bed and immediately kissed Eden's lips full of desire.

            “Am I will soon be able to touch you again.”

            “Uhum... After these twins come out of my warm stomach, you will soon be able to have me again.”

            “Please wait a minute, miss Lutherford.”

            “Hmm.. and by the way, I have something I want to tell you.”

            Eden suddenly broke away from Aciel and moved restlessly towards the table. He took out a glass of pregnant milk with a frown, then he immediately turned towards Aciel who was still faithfully standing in his place.

            “You look very worried.”

            “Laila just called me, she said last night Olivia was bleeding.”

            “That pregnancy? Is the fetus safe?”

            “Congratulations. Nathan handled it well when he happened to see Sian running around into the emergency room.”

            “Sure Olivia is very disappointed with it.”

            Eden immediately gave a sharp look towards Aciel and replied to the man with a grin. “ I know what you're thinking, Mr. Lutherford.”

            “What? Isn't that right? It is better for Olivia to let the fetus not survive.”

            “Fortunately Olivia's been talking to me, not you.”

            “What's the reason?” Aciel seemed so relaxed walking towards the sofa and stretching his stiff legs so that he could sit more relaxed.

            “You will definitely advise her to abort her fetus if Olivia talks to you.”

            “Accurate once. Than he had to have trouble bearing his psychic burden.” replied Aciel indifferently. Now his mind was directly on Sian. How does that guy feel? What will he do after this? Can she accept the baby as her own child? Aciel couldn't stop thinking about Sian. He grabbed his phone in his pocket and contacted the man as quickly as he could.

            “Already expected.” muttered Aciel while looking at his phone screen.

            “What's up?”

            “Sian could not be reached.” replied Aciel while waving her phone towards Eden.

            “He betrayed.”

            “But Olivia framed.”

            “That's no excuse, Ed. Sian feels betrayed by Olivia. Moreover, the condition of the man was unstable. He was depressed with his sickly state.”

            “Does Sian have any other illness besides the one you told me about?” ask Eden full of search. He would really explode if it were true, but he was never told at all about it.

            “For a man, losing his manhood is something very fatal. Sian must have lived a very miserable life for months. Feelings of inferiority, and also angry at not being able to become a real man in the presence of his wife.”

            “I don't think so.”

             “But most men think like that. I would choose to be alone or away from this house if it happened to me. Too embarrassing.”

            “Why men can think so shallowly.” said Eden did not understand. She did not even think she would be angry with her husband if he was sick and not manly. She will take care of her husband as best she can. Not just to avoid it like a plague.

            “Men have high self-esteem, Ed.”

            “Yeah, sky-high self-esteem. Okay, we continue the conversation about Olivia and Sian.” said Eden tried to restore the direction of their conversation that became chaotic just because of a strange topic about male virility. “They had a great fight last night.”.

            “That's for sure.” cut Aciel suddenly that managed to make Eden melt sharply. “Good, young lady. Continue your story.” said Aciel laughingly.

            “Short story, they were shouting at each other inside the emergency room. Then Sian left Olivia with an overflowing room and did not return home. When Olivia checked into the house this morning by calling Justice's nanny, she got a report that Sian hadn't been home since last night. Where do you think Sian went?”

            “Let's guess, where Sian is currently in a state of chaos?”

            “Ace, you scare me.” grumbled Eden who immediately walked with a short breath towards Aciel to sit next to the man. “You wouldn't say if he went to the club and slept with another woman as an impingement right?”

            “That's right! You're smart, my wife dear.” Aciel snapped his finger excitedly in front of his wife's face and laughed out loud at Eden's ridiculous facial expression.

            “You think this is a joke? Your best friend's household is on the verge of collapse, Ace!” shouted Eden annoyed. It could be that the man still considers it funny the quarrel that occurred between Olivia and Sian.

            “I know, Ed. But what should I do under these circumstances?”

            “Certainly search for Sian.”

            “He is an adult. Sian is not a child to be reminded of right and wrong.”

            “But he was looking for you when you left home.” exclaimed Eden longing. At least now Eden wants Aciel to do the same to make Olivia more calm in the hospital.

            “That's why I know how it feels.”

            “What feeling?”

            “I feel uncomfortable because your privacy is disturbed by others. Listen to me.” Aciel pulled Eden's hand slowly for the woman to lean against her chest. “Since the beginning I have warned this will happen. Sian's anger was just a time bomb. When the time comes, he will explode and hurt those around him with the annoying attitude of being betrayed. We better let Sian think clearly until he decides to go back to Olivia.”

            “Until when?”

            “I don't know. If I go to drag Sian home, we'll just hurt each other.”

            “You used to also hit Sian?”

            “Almost. But luckily I only managed to suck it.” said Aciel chuckled. Sometimes it's funny to imagine the times he was childish, even though his age was far from the word children. He is a mature man, a mature man who should be able to think clearly to solve his problems. But when all those storms came, his brain was like a sudden cripple. The only thing in his heart was anger and the feeling of wanting to hurt others because of his anger.

            “Then where is Sian now you think?”

            “Can be anywhere. Can also be at Leticia.”'s house

            “Who is Leticia? My God Ace, don't scare me like this. Will Sian be that easy to turn away from Olivia?”

            “Maybe.” replied the mysterious Aciel. Actually he has not really searched for the whereabouts of Sian now. That's all still his guess. At times like this Sian must have chosen to hide in places that the man thought was not sniffed by him. But it would be foolish for Sian to doubt the ingenuity of his brain. He couldn't possibly not keep an eye on Sian all this time. Long before he put his trust in Sian, he had already investigated the ins and outs of the man.

            “You just calm down. Sian won't be that easy to turn away from Olivia. He just needs entertainment now.” said Aciel casually. He said there was nothing to worry about about Leticia. Sian would obviously be immune to the woman's temptation. Only, the woman might be able to fumble around Sian a little as long as the man was with her.

            “I hope your words aren't just a joke. Ouch..” Eden suddenly complained and held onto her stomach which started to feel contractions. He reflexively gripped Aciel's arm as a pedestal for the pain he was currently feeling.

            “You should be three weeks away. Are the twins impatient to see his handsome daddy?”

            “It looks like so. Take me to the hospital now!” eden's orders were cramped as he began to feel his fluidity seeping from the dress he was wearing. Oh well, it looks like she did have to give birth while Olivia's family was grieving over their troubles.
