I know you're cheating

I know you're cheating

6 Months ago...

Varissa's face beamed as she continued to stare at the birthday cake she had deliberately brought. Tonight is the anniversary night of her husband, Erik Evans. Varissa deliberately came all the way from Jakarta to Bandung to give a surprise to Erik. Although Erik has said that he is busy, but Varissa still desperate to come. He is okay even though he only steals an hour to celebrate the birthday of the husband who he thinks is so special and worth celebrating.

"Erik's been around a long time, isn't he?" muttered Varissa while glancing at the clock on her wrist. It was 12:30 p.m., and her husband's nose was not yet visible.

Varissa rushed into the wardrobe. He would wait for Erik there and come right out giving a surprise once Erik came along.

The sound of the door opening kept Varissa's heart racing. Faintly, from the opening of the slightly open closet door she could see the figure of her husband entering the room with a dim light. Varissa smile. He was just about to get out when a foreign woman suddenly came in and immediately made fun of Erik so affectionately.

Seeing the painful scene before her eyes, Varissa could not help but cry. The figure of the husband who he believed so faithfully for two years was in fact betrayed. Erik had shattered Varissa's trust and love in an instant so all that was left was a wound.

"You're the best, Mauren!" said Erik on the sidelines of his hot romance with a woman of the stature with the big chest.

"Where will it be, my service or your stupid wife's service, huh?" ask the woman called Mauren. His body continued to sway over Erik who could not hide his delicious expression.

"Je..las you are!" erik replied smiling.

Hearing that, Varissa's heart was further broken. However, instead of wanting to get out of the crash, she chose to remain silent to witness all the betrayals committed by the husband. All scenes of Varissa watch without being missed. He wanted to know how far Erik and the woman were able to play with him.

"Mas... When did you divorce Varissa?" ask Mauren after their hot romance is over. Currently he and Erik hug each other under the blanket with the condition of not dressed at all.

"Awhile more. After Varissa signs her transfer of assets in my name, I'll divorce her and marry you!" answer Erik.

"So, that's what you've been after all this time, Mas?" mumbled Mauren with a smile.

"Just a moment!" Mauren's lips are throbbing. His hand hit the spoiled pretentious naked chest Erik. "From a year ago, you also said that. Don't you feel sorry for me? I can only own you completely if we pretend to have a job outside the city like gini. That too, at most it's only a week."

Varissa's heart is breaking. So, Erik's been lying all this time? The reason he had been out of town all this time was only to be alone with his prostitute and not work?

"How much do you do, my mom!" varissa murmured in the heart.

Just when Erik and Mauren were fast asleep, Varissa finally came out quietly from the closet. Not to forget, the cake he had prepared for Erik was also brought back. The woman paused for a moment looking at Erik who looked so soundly asleep beside her affair. Varissa smiled slantedly then cussed at Erik inwardly.

"Your betrayal will I reply more, Mom! I swear!" murmured Varissa before coming out of the apartment room owned by her father who is now occupied by Erik did pervert.

All the way home, Varissa kept crying. The pain of being betrayed made him think of heading to Erik's parents' house. Maybe, by going there, Varissa could get a little justice from Mama Papa Erik. At least, the pair of parents can scold their child and teach him a lesson.

Varissa drove her car at high speed. He can't wait to meet Mama and Papa Erik soon to complain about Erik's actions. However, about two kilometers away from Erik's parents' housing complex, Varissa's car suddenly took off when someone suddenly crossed the street in the morning blind. In order to avoid hitting the man, Varissa slammed the steering wheel to the right and immediately slid uncontrollably into the concrete barrier of the road until it was overturned.

In that instant, Varissa felt like life was about to end. However, he swore he would never be willing to die before taking revenge on Erik. He had to make the man feel the same pain before the moving Varissa left him first.

"I'm not going to die this easy, Mom! Just look!"

*****

One week later, Varissa awakens from a coma. Doctor Imran who handled it looks so happy because Varissa finally woke up.

"You're finally awake, Va! How are you feeling?" ask Dr Imran after checking Varissa's condition as a whole.

"Did Erik know I was conscious?" ask Varissa weakly.

Doctor Imran shook his head. Honestly, because too happy Varissa is awake, he forgot to tell anyone about Varissa's condition.

"Om Imran don't tell anyone that I'm conscious, including Mas Erik."

Varissa shook her head weakly. "Let me tell you the details, Om! But, can Varissa ask you something?"

"Of course!"

"Did Erik and his parents always come to see me here?"

Doctor Imran sighed in concern. Very honestly, the middle-aged man shook his head.

"Both Erik and his parents, they only come the day you crash. After that, they never came here again."

Varissa wiped her tears that suddenly fell. So, she was considered meaningless in her own husband's life?

"So, no one came to see me?" lirih Varissa is sad.

"There," replied Dr. Imran.

"You remember Dikta?" continued.

Varissa nodded weakly. Of course he remembered who that man was. He was an orphan who was financed until graduating from college by his father. A boy who used to always make Varissa jealous because it is much smarter and easier to win the heart of his father than he who incidentally is a biological child. However, since graduating from High School, Dikta finally decided to go to Amsterdam to study and settle there. After that, Varissa never met Dikta even when her father died two months after she and Erik were married.

"Dikta returned to Indonesia 5 days ago. And the boy is always beside you every night without moving until morning. It seems, Dikta still thinks of you as a sister even though you always do evil to her."

"Really, Om? But, she knows where I've been in an accident?" ask Varissa not to believe it.

"Nor do you know!" doctor Imran said as he sniffed his shoulder.

Varissa was stunned for a moment. In his heart, he was curious about the appearance of Dikta now. As far as Varissa could remember, Dikta was a handsome man with a flat look and rarely smiled. His reserved nature and will only speak if there is a need, always makes Varissa upset in the past. Varissa is curious. Is the Dikta still the same or has it changed?

"Can Varissa ask for help?" ask Varissa again.

"Tell me! Don't hesitate!"

"I want Om to keep it a secret that I've been aware of Mas Erik and his parents."

"Well, why Va?" doctor Imran asked, increasingly astonished.

"Varissa will tell the same story Om once Varissa is ready. But, um still want to help Varissa, right?"

Doctor Imran seemed to think for a moment before nodding in agreement.

"Well if it wants you. Om will also talk to all the nurses so they can keep it a secret."

"Thank you, Om!"

Doctor Imran smiled. He rubbed the top of Varissa's head which was still wrapped in a bandage gently.

"Together, Va! You're also Om's son."

Varissa is already preparing to begin her revenge. The first step he would take for now was to look at who the opponent was and who the comrades were all along. By pretending to remain in a coma, Varissa will select anyone who will pass for her to trust. Eric's parents also included. If both of them still love Varissa and attention to Varissa, then Varissa will only make Erik miserable. But, if Erik's parents turned out to support their son, then Varissa would also target them indiscriminately.

"When the real game starts, Mom! Because, I know you're cheating!"
