FAKE WIFE

Season 3 chapter 4

Before Magrib Aka arrived at the residence of his parents. Lately he has been going home more often in the afternoon or evening. Aka never again spirit if the work time is over. He prefers to keep busy in the office until his body feels very tired then he went home.

"Where is it, Mah?" tanya Aka kissed the back of Alia's hand.

"There was a meeting with Adnan in his office. Maybe until night," replied Alia carrying the son towards the living room.

"Would you like magrib, can I take a bath here, right?" tanya Aka took off the suit.

"Yes, this is also your home. Clean up first in the room. We pray together, yes. Mama's waiting at the mushola," said Alia as she passed away leaving Aka.

Since the fake Alodie goes Aka sometimes often stay at the house of the mother or just spend the night before returning home. Lazy feeling always mastered it when you want to set foot in his home. I don't know why Aka felt there was no more happiness and joy in there. It feels like life is losing its way not knowing what to do and why if it gets there.

After performing the magrib prayer, Aka and Alia moved to the dining table. All the dishes served on the table are the results of Alia cuisine specifically for the son only wayang.

"Old time I didn't eat home cooking," said Aka bribing rice into the mouth.

"Emang Alodie isn't cooking anymore?"

Aka pretended not to listen to the question posed by the mother. He seemed to be focused on finishing his meal.

"Ka, Mama went to your house."

"Hhhmm what do you keep doing? Meet Alodie?"

"Mama miss Alodie's cooking so Mama went there asking in masakin."

"Continue?"

"Say she's not feeling well anymore so cook her sometime. After that, my mother was left to the room" explained Alia casually.

"Yes, maybe Alodie is sick or has a fever, so she's gonna take a break."

"Mom can you say something?"

"By the way Mah, why permission first," Aka replied looking at the mother.

"Mom felt that Alodie was changing. What else these three months Mama often see you do not get along, unlike usual who are friendly, cheerful and loving. What the hell is it? You guys got a problem?"

Aka breathing heavily. Think of a good reason as the answer to your question. "Alodie is not amnesiac anymore, Mah" replied Aka. As if this was the best answer.

Alia's face instantly turned disappointed. "So that's what made him change like the old Alodie?"

Aka just nodded her head.

Alia just smiled faintly. "Out of the food, after this you want to return it?"

"Yes, I have a lot of work now. Maybe it will be overtime at home," replied Aka grasping the fingers of the Mama as if giving strength to not grieve.

He can't lie to Alia. However, want more, Aka even more unable to convey a big lie that might later even make his mother hurt. It was better like this at least Alia was just a little disappointed.

Aka immediately resigned.

"Sorry, yes, Mah I can't wait for you to come home."

"Your father is on the road, soon to arrive" said Alia taking the son to his car.

"I'm home, tomorrow afternoon I'm here again, yeah."

"Want to eat your mama's cooking again?"

Aka nodded. "If you're not tired."

Alia smiled happily. "Mama will cook for you."

"Assalamualaikum," said Aka kissed the hand of the mother who seemed to have begun to wrinkle.

"Bik, where's Alodie?" aka asked when she arrived at her house.

"Sir Alodie went with her friends. He said he had the same permission as Mas Aka," replied Bi Runi.

Aka looked confused while nodding her head leaving bi Runi who was cleaning the kitchen. He thought there were no messages or calls coming in from Alodie. Even when he sent a message saying he would stop by for a while to the house of the mother was not read by the wife.

Aka tried to call Alodie's phone number. Active and connected but not answered at all. Three times Aka decided not to contact his wife. He better focus on his work.

Because the focus is on the computer screen and cool to dance fingers on the keyboard, Aka to forget that the time has shown twelve o'clock at night. His eyes are sore, his back is also stiff due to sitting too long. He finished his work, went to the room to go to sleep.

I also remember that his wife had not returned. He called Alodie's number. It is no longer active. He could only sigh deeply and then exit the room up the second floor.

Aka did sleep more often in her old room while holding a light blue dress belonging to Fatia first.

Aka woke up when the dawn of Azan reverberated he went down one by one stairs to his room. Turns out Alodie didn't come home last night. Already thought Aka he chose to immediately perform the dawn prayer.

"Bi, later if Alodie comes home my phone," Aka messages bi Runi before leaving the dinner table.

"Ready, Mas!"

He moved his feet from the dining table to the front door of the house. At the doorway his feet stopped. A memory flashed through his mind. Usually when he will go to the office is always delivered by his wife. Off with a hug and a wave of hands accompanied the speed of his car leaving the house.

And the saying "Hurry home, yes!" looking forward to his presence at home as soon as possible. However, now all is just a shadow that he always hoped for and waited for.

Aka's back to banish it all. He got into the car and pushed her. Tucked a little sad and disappointed in the chest but ignored her.

"Lo again there's a problem, Ka?" ask Beno.

He was worried about the change in the nature of his cousin lately. Aka is more busy working and rarely tells her again. Even Aka is not as happy as before, he looks moody and sometimes his emotions are explosive.

"No longer do I think of cooperation," replied Aka deliberately lying.

"You don't have to look for the same reason. I've known you from childhood, so I know you're inside out" Beno said.

Aka doesn't care. He ignored Beno and chose to focus on the document he was reading.

"My same story," asked Beno to pat Aka on the shoulder.

"Nothing I need to tell you. What's Biya's condition?" tanya Aka switched the conversation.

"Lo deliberately diverted the conversation."

"Not diverting the conversation, Ben. Now I try to solve my own problems first. Later if I need help and advice, I must tell you the same story."

Beno nodded his head.

"Where is Biya's condition?" ask Aka again.

"Well, but that's how early in the morning the same nausea often vomiting sometimes also dizzy," explained Beno relaxed while crossing one leg sitting on the sofa.

"That's why, pregnant people in the first trimester experience morning sickness."

"Eat him now I'm asking for leave. Don't work until you give birth."

"Never leave forever, right?" ask Aka.

"If that's her choice. Want to work again after having children or focus on taking care of my child with Biya," explained Beno.

"It's a shame that Biya stopped being a doctor. He's one of the best doctors in our hospital, many more patients."

"You know, that's why I let him decide later. But if he has to rest now. I'll watch him vomit. Sometimes all that is eaten out," said Beno bobbing head.

"Udah control?"

"Udah, but yes it remains. Even though I've been taking nausea medication."

"Lo as a husband must always be there and accompany," Aka advised.

"Surely!" answer Beno jumawa.

"Here you go home" Aka kicked out.

"Lo didn't come home?"

"In a moment, the responsibility is to stay."

"Ok I'll go home first. You don't go overtime in the office of Kasian Alodie waiting," Beno's message and then out of the workspace Aka.

I just smiled fake. No more Alodie waiting for his return. No more Alodie to welcome his arrival. So why does he rush home if it will only disappoint the heart.

He heard his cell phone ringing on the table. Aka lift up immediately.

📱hallo Bik

📱Mas, Ma'am Alodie just got home.

📱Hah, just got home? This afternoon?

📱Ia, Mas. I think he was cleaning up in the room.

📱Still yes, Bik. I'm going home now. Later if he wants to go again hold it first.

Aka disconnect the phone. Tidied up his desk and rushed down from his office building.

There are a lot of things she wants to ask Alodie. Makes Aka impatient to get home soon. He even forgot Alia's promise that he would have dinner together.
