Help out! I Want Skinny

Part 8's. The Hoax

At night after work, Arjun finally opens a conversation with Marisa. Yeah, it's been four days since that fight they kept quiet.

"Sir, there's something you want to say" said Arjun hesitantly.

'He must be apologizing. It's good that he finally realized his mistake, ' said Marisa arrogantly inwardly.

Instead of answering her husband, Marisa shrugged both shoulders. Act no matter.

Seeing that his wife was silent, Arjun chose to continue his words. If not because there is an important right he was reluctant to say hello first. "Tomorrow morning my brother went out of town for three months. He was assigned to assist while operating a new branch of the company that was newly opened in Jambi. So Brother asked for help to pack the needs while there. Brother's plane leaves at ten."

Although the news was shocking, Marisa tried to show an ordinary attitude. "Oh, okay," he answered briefly without taking his eyes off the culinary show that was being aired on TV.

Seeing that, Arjun frowned inwardly. 'Style just want a diet, but the spectacle of culinary tourism only. This is called deliberately trying and teasing yourself. The ends of watching so drooling, continue eating again for sure. Your remission when Marisa. I really hope you will soon be converted and return to the skinny road.'

In the following minutes, the two creatures were busy with their respective affairs.

The curious soul of Marisa thrashed to ask this and that to her husband, but the sense of prestige dominates more so prefer not to ask a lot of questions.

The morning sun peeked timidly from behind the clouds. Like a husband and wife - Arjun and Marisa, who are timid to say goodbye. As many as three of their children were just happy to see their father out of town. How not to be happy, because every time their father came home from out of town, there must always be cool gifts and souvenirs that father brought for the three boys. It was Arjun's habit.

Marisa is actually upset with Arjun's departure, but when she remembers her husband's affair, her heart becomes irritated again.

'Don't stay out of town the Arjun even more freely related to the woman.' That's how negative thoughts cross Marisa's mind.

'Just look at it later. I'm not gonna lose. Just wait for the Bang Arjun play date. Once you get home, this Upik Abu has become Cinderella. If it's Cinderella, then only a prince deserves to come next to me .... Hahaha ..., ' said Marisa in heart.

As a mentor, Samuel was very attentive to the Marisa diet program. Make sure he has a protein breakfast, drinks plenty of water, and eats a low-carb meal.

Passing snack time at ten in the morning and four in the afternoon becomes the most excruciating activity. Hunger gnawed, but he remembered Samuel's message. 'Sometimes if you've eaten and a while later feel hungry, make sure if it's fake hunger or not. Drink water three glasses, and if still hungry can eat a snack as long as it is low in carbohydrates and does not contain sugar.'

That afternoon the test for her diet came again, and Marisa was indeed hungry. Bang Nando passed in front of the house as usual while peddling meatballs. The meat is famous for having a taste of delicious matchless. Three children Marisa immediately rolled in line in front of the wagon Bang Nando and other neighbors. Previously he had given a message to Angga, "Let's tell Abang Bakso to wait for a moment, Mamita's meatball money paid."

Not without reason Marisa told me so. He did not want to queue in front of Bang Nando's meatball cart while being the bully of the neighbors.

After seeing no more buyers, Marisa rushed out. "Sorry, Bang, so wait. I bought the meat, but I didn't use it. I'm just the same meatballs that contain eggs, Bang," said Marisa while handing over a bowl and meatball payment money.

"It's okay, Ma'am. Like Ma'am Marisa deliberately waiting for the buyer to leave, yes, just showed up?" bang Nando asked with a smile and prepared Marisa's order.

"Yes Bang Nando. Know donk if the neighbor is anything discussed. Than I'm not comfortable mending me dodge."

"Know not, Bang. That's Bang, the diet I'm on now prohibits eating noodles including tofu. Oya, just one spoon. Without the sauce, Bang," replied Marisa.

"Can't that diet not eat meat?"

"This time is different, Bang. Animal protein is free of consumption at any time, as long as it is not mixed with flour and sugar" Marisa explained.

"This is my meatballs with the flour" said Bang Nando astonished.

"It's okay, Bang. I just took the boiled eggs that were in the meatball. I'll pass it to the kids later."

"Oh, so. If you want, I have a chicken claw. What to add? Or abstinence too?" bang Nando's

"Can, can. Very conceivable. I want the plug."

Bang Nando put four pieces of chicken claw into Marisa's bowl and said, "Marisa's mother seems very serious about this diet. Earlier, mothers here had told me that Marisa's mother now eats vegetables. Continued because of the fat Mpa, Bang Arjun ran away from home. Bring all the suitcases and don't go home. Listen to divorce and get married again. Sorry, ma'am, no offense. Coincidentally I heard someone say that. So I want to ask you, what is it right?"

Marisa's forehead immediately wrinkled at the spice-filled news. "Humans are a lot less work now, Bang. Finally busy taking care of other people's lives. Want my cheeks chubby, want my stomach like a pregnant person, want me to eat a lot, anyway not harming others. I like to confuse people who often comment negatively to me. It's their lives less picnic or less happy, what how? Sometimes I feel stupid is very much the same what people say, but sometimes we can no longer think positively or again there is a problem, then the strange talk makes insecure you know, Bang. I really want to be skinny, to be healthier and choose clothes is also easy. About the husband, oh ... Bang Arjun was indeed again able to take office duties out of town. It's not true that the story is that he ran away from home" Marisa explained.

"Oh my goodness, I'm sorry Mbak joined the hoax. That's how the story from mouth to mouth without finding out the truth first. The story here is rice, until someone else has become a vegetable pontoon," said Bang Nando

"The thing is not wrong. Fortunately, I confirmed it directly to me. Otherwise, how would I know the story circulating around here. Precisely there is the beauty of gossip and gibbah, Bang. Just like eating meat just boiled the same salt doank where delicious. Hence added this spice it. Be the one who gets addicted. Information that is not special is not available. Plus seasoning hallucinations and expert-style analysis is just exciting," said Marisa.

"Lots of patience, Ma'am," said Bang Nando.

"Yes, Bang. Even if it's bad, I have a mental artist. Same slanted gossip."

"Marisa's sister is too low. From her beautiful son. Not wrong Mbak is now an artist even though it is still among the RT one environment," praise Bang Nando sincerely.

"Eh, the brother was too complimentary. Enough of my big body, do not let the head come big," said Marisa blushed embarrassed.

"I praise rarely, Ma'am. However, once praised must be true."

"Hahaha ..The brother could have, but I thank you. Oh yeah, I'm going in first, Bang. Want to enjoy this delicious meatballs, and go cold" said Marisa smiling broadly while saying back home.
