I'm (Not) a Cheap Woman

Stupid Facts

Tomorrow day's.

Arka picks up Nisa in a new house. “How are you doing sweetheart?” ask with a big smile.

“My body is sick all because of you,” replied Nisa with a flat mimic and also a flat voice.

“Sorry if I was too rude to do it. Next time, I'll slow down.”

“There won't be another time. I don't want to serve you.”

“There will always be. If I ask for it and you don't want love, yes I will touch you by force. If not you, who else will serve me?”

“Today you've always been with Dara, sure she never served you?”

“You're the only one who knows what it's like.” Arka pointed at hers while staring pervertedly at Nisa. “You are the only one who can hit him with a spatula,” he added.

Arka then turned the steering wheel towards the office. “Don't get used to hitting my bird. You will have trouble planting later.”

Nisa mute.

Arriving at the office.

“Why shut up? Come log in!”

“Try first! I'm lazy to go with you,” reply Nisa. Exactly like Arka used to do to him.

Hot, Arka is actually burning with anger. But in order to keep herself from hurting Nisa again, she went to the elevator first.

A long time later, Nisa gets into the elevator and

stop on the fifth floor. In the special room for her division, Nisa returned to her routine. He does his work on a laptop.

Two hours passed.

“Nisa, we are called Arka sir to his room now.”

Nisa scrunched her forehead. “You're not kidding right Ra?”

“No, Sa. Where dare I joke problem sir Arka.”

“If you can know, what are we called for?” asked Nisa who refused to stand up from her seat.

“I don't know either, Sa. Suddenly Mr. Arka sent a chat to me. Tell her to go up to her room with you.”

“But this is not finished Ra,” reply Nisa with the gaze fixed to the laptop.

“Let's go on! We need to see Mr. Arka now! Don't let us be given a red card.”

“Good, Ra.” Nisa pressed the shut down button and stood up.

While the other colleagues were busy doing their duties, they both stopped with the activity because of Arka's call.

They walked to the elevator. The moving room took them to the tenth floor. The two of them came out and stepped into the boss's room.

“Why is it here?” inner Thira. It's getting weird.

“I give you a chance to confess now. Just chill! You guys I wouldn't fire if I told you the truth. It's also free for you to lie if you've been caught red-handed like this,” said Arka.

“How many times do I have to tell you to believe? I'm not the culprit. I never had any intention at all to trap you,” replied Nisa softly.

Arka approached, making Nisa retreat because she was afraid to see her husband's gaze. Already often he saw the face of Arka unpleasant, but only this time Arka's face was as scary as that.

“See Sir! All because of you. Innocent people like Nisa have to endure my torment for months because of you,” Arka said as she pulled the monkey in Udin's clothes tightly.

“I don't know anything Sir.” Pak Udin's face reddened because his neck was strangled by the monkey clothes that were pulled Arka.

“Man has no heart. Already guilty do not want to confess anyway.” Arka also hit hard face Mr. Udin.

“Do not!” Dara, Thira, and Nisa attempt to break Arka.

“Get all of you aside, because of this guy all my plans are falling apart.” Arka continues to float a raw bogem into the face of Mr. Udin.

“Ampun, Sir. Forgive me... I plead guilty. I set up Mr and Nisa that night,” tidied Mr. Udin whose face had turned blue due to a blow to Arka.

“Say who you do it with!” yell Arka.

“Dia,” responded in a very slow voice and with the index finger pointing to Thira.

Nisa gawking in disbelief. “Thira? You set me up? Why are you doing this to me Thira? I never had a problem with you.” A speck fell on Nisa's face.

“Because I know, since SMA you used to like the same Mr. Arka. I purposely set you up with him so that you could be together. So that Brother Maher can't have you too, Sa.” Tears of honesty flooded Thira's face.

“Why should be jealous Ra? I have no feelings for Maher.”

“Yes, you do not have any feelings for Brother Maher. But Maher's brother love died with you. Every time I see him, he keeps talking about you. I'm jealous of Sa.” Thira's cries broke.

“Your jealousy is unfounded Ra,” reply Nisa again.

“Unbased on your word? Try to remember all our trips since High School was Sa. At that time, we both entered the physical test room.

All the new students, including me, were told to creep under the table. But you didn't, because Maher fell in love at first sight to you. You were just told to throw a basketball a few times.”

Nisa froze, she seemed numb to hear it.

“Try to remember the warmest time on the beach. I'm the only one who asked for a photo, but Maher also wants a photo of you. You are so lazy to take pictures with him. Everything is less clear to show

if brother Maher love you.”

“You misunderstood Ra. Maher's sister was not so because she fell in love at first sight to me. But because he was my senior when I was Junior High. That's why he was kind to me,” replied Nisa who misinterpreted Maher's kindness to him.

“Okay, if that's your reason. Let me break it with facts. You said he was good because of senior right? As long as you know Nisa, before you worked here, Maher was so indifferent to me. But since you became a staff, he's turned out to be very friendly. He who used to love nothing, so often buy food.”

Thira wiped her tears for a moment.

“Means I'm looking for a way to trap you. And that night, it just so happened that you were sentenced to overtime. Exactly when Miss Dara did not go overtime with Pak Arka. In the hope that you are happy with Mr. Arka and I am happy with Brother Maher. But until now, Maher still glanced at you. Though you have become his wife Arka.” Thira was crying.

“As you know also Thira, I am not happy at all so his wife Sis Arka. Every day must resist jealousy to see him affectionate with sister Dara. Every day I am also cheap. Every time I was yelled at,” Nisa replied after Thira had finished talking.

“I'm sorry Nisa. I didn't mean that. I thought you'd be happy.”
