CHECKMATE

Pretend Not to Care

After a long silence, Amanda finally started talking. He no longer wanted to talk about their fight. He just focused, on the series of reasons for his departure out of town tomorrow.

"Bas, there's something I want to talk about" Amanda said carefully

The man did not flinch at all, not caring about what his wife was going to say. He continued to focus on enjoying his dinner.

"Bastian, can't you hear me for a second?" amanda half-screamed. She was quite upset with her husband's behavior

It was quite inviting to Bastian's attention, still with an expressionless face, he looked at Amanda

"Heh, who listens to it is the ears, not the eyes or the mouth" he said later

"Can't your mouth just talk. I'm eating, you're just interrupting" he said angrily

She's still mad at me, she's pretty vindictive as it turns out. If it's like this, how do I ask permission, Amanda's inner

Amanda doesn't have much time. Tomorrow he has to get out of town. He finally came to a conclusion, asking permission. Whether or not he doesn't care.

"Bastian, I'm leaving town tomorrow. There's a company meeting that I have to attend" he said

"Eem, it's not just me who's gone. There are other employees as well. Can I go?" ask Amanda

Amanda's getting so bad. Seeing her husband who ignored her, irritated her. What's in this guy's head. And why Amanda looked like a fool nearby. It turned out that his choice to hide his true identity, was the wrong choice. He should not be treated like this by anyone. It should be respected, respected, and appreciated. He seemed insignificant in front of the man.

"Bastian, are you human or not? Please respect me a little. I'm talking to you" Amanda said in anger

"You never appreciated my existence. You now know what it feels like not to be considered by others" he said again.

The sentence just came out, without him digesting it first. It's not his wish, it shouldn't be like this. He regretted his words. He taught Amanda a little lesson. But it seems to have exceeded its limits.

"You always bring up the problems that have passed, Bastian. Who doesn't appreciate you. Yesterday's incident was just a misunderstanding" Amanda said. He can still control himself.

"Again, I've explained everything to you. I apologized too. You're the one who never appreciated me here" Amanda said

He was silent for a moment, and then spoke again.

"I gave up Bastian. I've been trying to apologize. However, if that's not enough for you, whatever. I don't care,"

After saying so, Amanda left her silent husband a thousand languages. I don't know what's in that guy's head, Amanda doesn't know. Amanda doesn't want to take a headache. Regarding his departure out of town, he had already made up his mind. He will leave, even if the man does not give him permission.

***

The next day, Bastian was dressed to leave for the office. The plan this morning, he'll apologize to his wife. It seems like his act of feigning anger, did not have a positive impact on their relationship.

The kitchen looks empty. There's no wife there. There was no food at the dinner table either. Bastian was astonished, not usually his wife like this. Or maybe Amanda's sick? Bastian's mind went everywhere.

Suddenly, Amanda emerges from behind the door of her private room. The woman was not seen wearing office clothes. He appeared to be wearing casual clothes, plus a suitcase that was not too big in his hands. Just contact Bastian's eyeballs perfectly rounded.

What's he doing? She wants to leave the house? Just because of the fight yesterday? Just this is true.
