CHEATING

President Director

Auntie Tuti sat in her room. The night was late, but he could not close his eyes. He sat by the window staring at the back yard.

What a lack of Tia. He always obeyed. When you want to have another child, when you tell him to stay home because you are jealous. She is beautiful, educated, and has a good career. All she left for her marriage, her husband, her children. Even I myself lose my ability to cook with him. What is it, sir.what does that woman have but not my Tia? What possible... Tia can't keep you company because it's busy with kids? If that's your problem, I'll give him some free time with you... I'll take over all his work when you get home. That's the only thing I can do, to save this marriage...

Both eyes Bi Tuti glass. He now settles down and tries to sleep.

A busy morning. I took a morning shower with the baby. Zaky is having breakfast with the kids. Bi Tuti to see Mr. Pandi. They were talking near the gate.

" Anyway if your car has been seen from far away, tell me yes Mr Pandi!"

" Good bi, I don't want them to be separated either. We're like family."

" All right, I'm going in first. Sir wants to go to the office. I'll get the little guy to play."

" Yes bi."

Zaky arrived at the office, some of the female employees whispered. They were so jealous because Lila had a new car. Must be from Mr. Zaki they said.

If I was a mistress from a long time ago I could also tease her. I thought he wasn't that kind of guy.

Yes, he is perfect. But since he's so stiff I think he probably won't be tempted.

That's what they say behind their boss.

Zaky came into the Secretary's office. There's only Lila there.

" Have you come? Don't bother me, yeah, I'm busy filing important meetings for you. Robi's permission, pre-wedding guidance she said."

" Come, you're so arrogant." He said while shuffling Lila's hair.

" Hey, it took a long time to set it up to be neat like this?"

" Yasuda. Meet me at lunchtime."

" Good."

---

" tia..."

" Yes my dear aunt, you finally called my name."

" May I say something?"

" Just say bi."

"Will you promise, from today on, every time your husband comes home you'll welcome him, and accompany him to a meal. "

" Aunty, we've been flexible about it. If there's time I'll do it. At least I always prepare her clothes and food, I also accompany her to sleep right? uhhhaha..."

" no. If you think of me as your mother, then obey my request."

" Aunty why? Yes well, I will obey."

What's up with aunt Tumben once, anyway I've tried.

On the eve of lunch, Zaky prepared to eat out with Lila. Suddenly the door opened. Arya came to visit him.

" ye! You came here?"

" Gosh, are you that busy? forgot to call me? I had to rearrange my schedule to meet you."

" Hahaha, forgive me, sit down."

Arya then sits on the sofa in Zaky's office. Zaky sits on the sofa opposite Arya.

" I'm so proud that the mayor visited me, hahaha" Zaky said.

" Then you have to buy me lunch."

" Good good good."

I heard knocking on the door. Lila's in. Zaky's expression immediately changed.

" Oh hemm.. Miss Lila it's lunchtime. If there's a need, you can meet me after lunch."

Lila who had just realized there was someone else there immediately took a few steps back.

" Oh yes sir, fine. Excuse me."

Lila is out. Zaky was silent for a moment. Arya looked at Zaky with a smile.

" It's you!" Aryan

" What?"

" Me or did you say it?"

" What? I don't understand what you mean!" Zaky changed his sitting position and leaned back and folded his arms around his chest.

" Look, you're feeling tense right now! hahaa."

" No, I'm normal."

"Hey! Don't want to confess, you're cheating, right?"

" What do you mean? You're this!"

"Hey!"

" The woman, right? He's your affair, isn't he?"

Zaky did not answer. Just tilted her lips while looking at Arya. Like being caught red-handed.

" Hahaha.my guess is correct.."

" That's it.. "

" What has it been? When I went to your house and your wife said you went to play futsal with Arya, I was suspicious. And when I called you and he said you were out of town with Arya Others, I was more and more convinced you were having an affair. Don't you have another name for lying?"

Zaky laughed raw.

" ye? What's less than your wife, huh?"

Arya squeezed the paper and threw it on her friend's shoulder.

" Why throw me?" Zaky threw the paper back into Arya's head.

" What are you looking for, huh? Momentary enjoyment?"

" ye! Am I that kind of guy?!"

" That's it, what else do you want?"

" I don't know..." Zaky held both hands. His body bent, his elbows resting on his knees.

" Answer!" Arya leaned her body forward.

" I don't have a talking partner.." Zaky glanced at Arya once, then looked down again. Arya just shut up. Waiting.

" My wife.he's busy taking care of the kids."

" Take care of whose child?"

" My boy! you're this!"

" So what?"

"What?"

" Didn't you look at what you said?"

Zaky was silent for a moment, thinking, but did not know what Arya meant.

"He can't accompany you because of your son, and you're having an affair, look at how selfish you are!"

The deg!

" Are you competing with your son? Are you still a child so expect your wife to pay more attention to you? You're a prosecutor once, apparently."

Zaky jerks.

" Your son is four, and you only have 1 assistant, Look at him get tired He takes care of them, not to mention taking care of your food, your clothes, even taking care of your desires, sometimes he's tired, sometimes he's tired, but I don't know where to tell stories. Tell you you take complaints. If he's still sane believe me, it's a blessing for you!"

Suddenly Zaky's chest became sore. He took a deep breath.

" And you? You're not the listener you want to hear? Look how selfish you are. Andwhat? Now you're having an affair! Do you understand your mistake?"

Zaky can't answer what. Because what Arya said is true.

"Hey! You're the head of the family. Your job is to give a lot, not just to receive. After all, he never ignored you in terms of the main thing, right? He even cooked himself food for you.Thank God!"

" I'm a selfish person."

" Because it stops! Before your wife finds out and leaves you.

Whahuh? I don't want him to leave me.

" Why are your prayers so ugly."

" You don't think he'll leave you if he finds out?"

" I don't want him to know..."

" So stop this! Not all women are like my wife."

" What do you mean?"

Arya smile. Zaky thought hard. Then cut something out.

" ye! Are you cheating! basic!"

" yes. I cheated. But first. You think how I deal with that woman, who always talks with seductive words, and I'm grateful my wife forgave me. But Zaky, not all women are like my wife."

" Are you sorry?"

" Of course. I hate myself so much. How could I treat my wife that way after everything she gave me."

" You're right."

Long Zaky was silent. I think how far he has played. Arya drinks mineral water even though it has not been offered.

" Yesudah, come have lunch, I'll kidnap you from your affair."

They laughed and went to lunch.

I've been overdue.
