Forced Marriage as Love
The Part 81
In the morning, Raka was ready to go to the office. Jiana is still asleep in her sleep. Raka was reflecting while fixing her tie. Sometimes he glanced at his wife who looked exhausted due to his actions. Raka smiled faintly and refocused on her mirror.
"Mas, are you leaving already?" jiana asked while changing her position to lean on. Raka nodded thinly while her gaze was still focused on the mirror.
"If you are still tired, just rest, dear" said Raka. He went to bed and sat there. Jiana just smiled thinly.
"I prepare breakfast for a while, mas," said Jiana. He wants to get out of his bed. However, Raka held Jiana by holding her hand.
"No need, bi Lastri has prepared it," replied Raka.
"I'm leaving first. Later let me tell bi Lastri to bring your breakfast here," said Raka. He kissed Jiana softly.
Jiana just stared at her husband who came out of the room while carrying his briefcase. This morning he was really tired and wanted to rest for a while. Fortunately, her husband was so understanding to her.
"Bi, later please bring breakfast to Jiana's room, yes" said Raka after finishing breakfast. Bi Lastri answered him with a nod. Then, Raka decided to work.

In the office, Niha was waiting for Raka's arrival. Today the company he works for has a meeting with Raka. Niha deliberately waits for Raka in her office hoping she can meet him personally. He was currently in the lobby staring at the entrance.
"Farrel, for today's meeting already prepared?" asked Raka while walking towards her room.
"All is ready sir, we just have to wait for them to come to our office" replied Farrel. Raka nodded in understanding.
Seeing Raka's arrival, Niha immediately rushed up to him. With a sweet smile that adorned his face, hoping that the man would meet him.
"Raka," Niha said.
"You're this early to my office what's the business? Don't you have to work too?" asked Raka while frowning her forehead.
"mmm... Can we talk for a second?" ask Niha. Raka was silent for a moment before nodding to confirm it. And finally the three of them stepped towards Raka's room.
Arriving at the room, Niha simply fell silent as she glanced towards Farrel. Hope Farrel leaves them both. While Raka is only indifferent and instead focus on the laptop in front of him. For a long time they were both silent.
"If nothing matters, you can get out! I still have to work" Raka said as she looked at Niha.
"Sorry, can this assistant of yours come out for a moment?" Niha.
Niha walked over to Raka. He stood beside Raka while looking at her. Farrell was not far from them.
"How's Jiana doing?" ask Niha.
"Well," Raka replied without looking at Niha. Then Niha smiled faintly.
"I heard she had a miscarriage. Surely you guys are very sad huh," Niha said carefully. Raka let out her breath for a moment. Niha's presence made her uncomfortable.
"Niha, you know there will be an important meeting soon. So, I beg you not to bother me just yet. I think you understand this," said Raka a little annoyed.
"Raka, do you realize I'm trying to get close to you? Why are you being like this? We used to be best friends, right?" said Niha who did not accept Raka's treatment to him. Raka closed her eyes for a moment so that she would not get carried away in the atmosphere.
"Miss forgive me, you have to leave now" said Farrel as he knew Raka was already uncomfortable with the woman's whereabouts. Raka just fell silent and acted cold to him.
Without a second thought, Niha walked towards the door. But before he actually came out of the room, he looked back at Raka.
"I'll go back and try to get your love Raka" Niha murmured. Then he came out without saying anything else.
Raka resumed her work and prepared for the meeting later.

Elsewhere, Jiana was enjoying her breakfast. This time, he ate in his room. After eating, he headed to the kitchen with his dirty dishes.
"Let aunty alone, madam please rest," said bi Lastri while taking over the tray that Jiana had brought. Jiana only smiled faintly and handed the tray over.
"Does mom bother you, baby?" mama Mira said suddenly which shocked Jiana. Jiana turned around and looked at her mother-in-law who was already standing behind her.
"Mama" said Jiana. He hugged his mother-in-law who was warmly welcomed by him.
"Sorry Ma, Jiana rarely goes to my mother's house" said Jiana.
"Mama knows what, baby. Oh yes, this is Mama bringing dates for you. Mama's friend said this is good for women who are pregnant," said Mama Mira while handing over a bag containing dates.
"Thank you very much Ma" said Jiana. He put the date to the table and then let Mama Mira to the middle room. They chatted casually and exchanged stories.
