DREAM OF THE SHADOW
CHAPTER 18
"Finally yes, we can eat together" Adit said as he flipped through the menu book.
"Sir Adit is busy. What's Yun going to eat?" Joshua's reflex question made Adit stare at the handsome man in front of him.
"Call me Adit, when you call my wife by name while I wear frills sir? Ahaha.." Adit laughed stiffly.
"Oh sorry, I'm with Yuna." Shua's sentence was cut off by Adit.
"The school friends. I-i know. Yuna always told me about anything. Oh, that's darling." Adit clasped Yuna's free hand on the table. The scenery is enough to make the look of Shua slightly changed. Yuna simply fell silent and pulled her hand slowly from her husband's strange demeanor.
"So what about the proposal sent by my manager, Dit?" shua asked as she sipped a cold drink in front of her.
"You think we'll sit here to eat if I refuse? Haha...How can I reject the proposal from Global? It was Jo's amazing project. Even our planning director has analyzed it and he is very supportive. I'll send you an official reply to the proposal as soon as possible." Adit poured some wine in Shua and Yuna's glasses.
"To celebrate our cooperation" Adit said as he toasted with them.
"For our success." Joshua replied as he glanced at Yuna who looked charming. Her red lips are very sexy when sipping wine in matching colors. Her black dress slightly exposed her cleavage. Adit slightly realized there was an oddity in Joshua's gaze to his wife. Actually Adit was reluctant to invite Yuna tonight, I don't know she was a little jealous to hear Yuna who once liked her upperclassman. Especially with the dress that Yuna chose, Adit had asked Yuna to replace it earlier. But the Yuna that is now is not the Yuna that was. Adit also knows enough to not act like a husband. And now, Jo's gaze at Yuna pissed her off. But he managed to hold it, for the sake of his company, for the sake of business.
"So how did you get acquainted?" Shua asked them, trying to guess who would answer even though she knew exactly who it was.
"We were originally betrothed. But long ago who wasn't in love with Yuna." Adit looked at Yuna. Yuna replied to that look with a little disgust.
"That's what he saw from a fat woman who was so unattractive at the time." Yuna laughed a little cynically as she raised her wine glass and sipped it again.
"You are indeed interesting even though you used to be a bit." said Shua without continuing. Again Adit did not like the man's gaze.
"Haha...Don't bring Shua's past up." Yuna slightly flicked her unraveling hair.
"really so. You remember when we had training, which we ran with legs tied, I thought you were very attractive with your spirit. It doesn't take sexiness to make a woman look attractive." Joshua explained. Yuna just scrunched her forehead.
"I mean it." Joshua confirmed it again.
"Ok ok.enough with the past. You made me jealous because I wasn't there at the time Jo hahaha... Oh yes Jo, I've been to Surabaya to see the location there. After our MOU was signed, I think we should go to Surabaya again to meet some vendors" said Adit while pouring sauce on his plate.
"Can. I prefer to jump into the field before the job starts. You're going with Yun. Let you predict whether the budget can be in accordance with the proposal estimate."
"Ok, I'm coming." Adit was just about to reject the request, but he lost quickly with Yuna's answer. Joshua smiled at her, and Adit disliked her. Playboy smile. But it's highly unlikely that Joshua Austin William would like a wife like Yuna. Moreover, Adit has investigated it, Joshua was never exposed to have a serious relationship with a woman. He only appeared when a famous artist, Vanya Aprilia, took him to Vanya's birthday party. The media shocked the relationship until Vanya clarified that they were like brother and sister. Joshua certainly never wanted to appear again to the public while holding a woman.
"Siiip.later let my secretary manage everything. Set it when Dit. If it could be a week before, I could empty my schedule. Let's eat.later to the cold." Joshua flashed his sweet smile to the stiff pair in front of him. Yuna replies, but not with Adit pretending to be busy slicing steak in front of her.
They split up in the parking lot. Joshua passed by with his white Range Rover after waving his hand and was replied by Yuna who also just got into Adit's car.
"Well, did he keep smiling at her?" Adit started the engine of his car.
"Well, should I be jutekin?" Yuna put up her seat belt.
"I told you not to wear this dress. See, the chest is too low." Adit confirmed the V neck of the dress that was slanted restrained the seat belt. Yuna was slightly surprised by that somewhat intimate touch. Naturally, because Adit last touched her more than two months ago even though Adit came home every week. Yuna's face looked slightly reddened, her eyes met Adit's eyes which were not up to 30 cm away. Adit brought his face closer to Yuna and landed his lips on Yuna's lips. Yuna was shocked, she tried to return the kiss. As Adit deepens the kiss, Yuna encourages him. Adit was surprised by his wife's refusal.
"Sorry, I can't. Take me home, Dit." Adit did not answer. He began to run his car passed from the parking lot that began to desolate.
Arriving in front of the house, Adit parked his car and came down. Yuna turned her body in wonder.
"Well, why are you coming down?" ask Yuna.
"It's still my house." replied Adit. Yuna rolled her eyeballs and acted nonchalantly. He went in and went up to his room.
Yuna knew Adit was following her behind and it made her mind go awry. Adit closed their bedroom door. Yuna deliberately chose pajamas for her sleep, she did not want to wear the thin dress she used to wear to attract the attention of Adit. Not for tonight. Yuna changed her clothes in the bathroom. He came out and found Adit changing his clothes, exposing his burly body.
"You're still here? Come out, I'm going to sleep." Yuna said as she cleaned her makeup in front of the dresser.
"Where to go? This is my room." Adit sat leaning against the couch while sending a message to someone there. 'Honey, I'm not going there tonight. Kiss your baby and baby.' Adit then turned off his phone. She felt a little guilty about Becca because she was a little sensitive because of her pregnancy. But Becca is well enough now, Adit has hired a driver for Becca.
"So you want to sleep here tonight?" Yuna stood next to the bed while crossing her arms in front of her.
"Yes, I miss you Yun." Adit looked at him softly.
"I don't want to be the place where your kangen is only once a month Dit. It's a shame for me and it's an insult for me. I slept next door." Yuna took out her beloved bolster and intended to get out before she felt the two arms hugging her from behind.
"I'm sorry Yun. I've let you down. But I really find it hard to take you off." Adit kissed her neck. Yuna closed her eyes. Should he leave it or should he refuse it? However Adit was still her husband, Yuna had to accept it if she wanted to maintain her household. Yuna resigned as Adit threw the bolster pillow that Yuna hugged and turned her body. Adit kisses his lips softly, he knows how he should treat Yuna very differently to Becca.
Yuna felt Adit's hand exploring her innocent body, somehow the defense of her pajamas buttons had no effect in the slightest.
"R..." Yuna felt her body twitch even though her brain rejected all the treatment.
"Shhh..Enjoy it, baby." whispered Adit.
Yuna closed her eyes, trying to enjoy all of Adit's play on her. Suppose Adit's treatment was like this before Yuna found out about her affair with Becca, her best friend. Suppose his relationship with Adit is firmly bound by love and untarnished by betrayal. Suppose... Yuna could not enjoy it as all those thoughts came filling her brain without permission. Until Adit finally releases the peak of his desire in Yuna's body.
"Thank you dear..You're amazing." Adit kissed his wife's forehead. Yuna just looked silent, there was not the slightest smile on her face.
"Didn't you like it?" ask Adit again.
"Like you or your game?" Yuna asked back while looking into the eyes of her husband who was still above her body. Adit did not reply, he still saw disappointment in the woman's eyes. Yuna pushed him slowly, he left Adit and went into the bathroom to clean himself up. As she came out, Yuna saw Adit was already wearing his clothes back and was waiting for her.
"here.." Adit patted the empty bed next to him. Yuna obeyed.
"I'm going to sleep." Yuna slept on Adit's back and hugged his pillow. Adit kissed the side of her free cheek and hugged her from behind. Whispering a 'beautiful dream' in his ear. Of course Yuna took a long time to really fall asleep, but she didn't care. Silence is sometimes the most effective remedy to reduce pain, but not cure it.
*****
'Honey, I'm not going there tonight. Kiss your baby and baby.' Becca throws her phone over her bed. It's only tonight that Adit hasn't been home for a week. Becca knew that was more than enough. But her obsession soul was too high, let alone she was pregnant. Yes, this pregnancy is very much he is looking forward to taking Adit completely. Becca thought about telling Yuna about her pregnancy, which is already entering its fourth month. Their relationship will be over soon. But Becca locked him up, Adit would have been furious if he told Yuna. Adit had reminded him many times that he would explain it to Yuna. Becca tries to call Adit, she misses him by the voice of the man who made her go crazy. For five hours he had not heard Adit's voice.
Tuut.tuut...
"Suckers! How not to answer anyway??!! What else is he doing?!" Becca tried again but still no answer. He was worried that Adit would leave him and return with Yuna. After all Yuna was no longer the same as Yuna was. It has turned into a very beautiful swan. Becca must be careful, she will find the most surefire way to defeat Yuna completely.
