I'M BETWEEN YOU AND HIM

SOMEHOW YOUR VIEW OF ME NOW

My fire alarm went off a few times. The sign is 4:30 in the morning. I woke up from sleep. Surprised to see Vika sleeping under the sofa where I slept. Just a little carpet. He looks so good under his blanket.

I took Vika to her room. Lay it on a foam mattress. Vika looks so slumbering that I didn't realize I was moving her.

I stepped into the bathroom. Wudhu and perform dawn prayers. I have been used since I was a child, until now it has become a routine even though my sleep hours are reduced a lot. My body was a little stiff because I was curled up all night on a small sofa.

Once after the prayer, my hole rang. I'm sure this is Ranti. And sure enough, he called. I changed the call with video call mode. I want him to see me directly.

"Yes, baby! I just finished dawn! I'm sorry I didn't call you last night for fear of interrupting your sleep and orange." I smiled at my wife with her white face. It's so beautiful, it makes me want to kiss her.

"Mas, how's Vika? Why aren't you khan?"

"Vika's still sleeping in her room. I sleep on this couch, which! He was drunk to unconsciousness. I keep bringing him home, not long nyerocos even if he spills the same we especially you!"

"Why order?"

"Because yesterday was his birthday. No one congratulated him, let alone threw a party for him. You said you don't remember his birthday either."

"Astaghfirullaah.. maaas, I forgot! He seemed very sad last night!"

"I know her birthday too! Hence, when I want to go home at 3 pm, he still nangis ngurung himself in the room. I'm so worried that he's doing something dangerous because of the influence of alcohol. So I'm sleeping on the couch waiting for him to sleep."

"Yes, I'm sorry.bikin you're not comfortable either."

"Don't you think anything about me staying at Vika's house?"

"I mean, mas?"

"Yes.... Your view is the same as mine. The man who was carelessly staying at his wife's best friend's house. Somehow your view of me now."

"Maaaa....! I'm just happy, you want to think long for my best friend's safety. That Vika I've considered like my own brother. I don't have bad thoughts about you guys. So I don't have to worry about my views. I believe in mas!"

"Oiya, I'm going straight to the office from here. Sorry, yang?! Abis if you go home first, go far to the office. Chances are I can take Cecil to the office together."

"OK, mom! Ga papa! I'm waiting for you to come home from work!"

"Oiya that.... Before you go to travel that you said yesterday, you should come here. Entertain your friends! I can't entertain him, I don't know what to do either. You fellow women, must understand more how to entertain each other. Yea?"

"Yes, mom! Later after Jingga finished eating and bathing, I went to see Vika. Moga Vika is not angry anymore!"

"You are so beautiful, that! I'm koq kangen ya, want to hug you!" godaku stared at Ranti lekat making Ranti blush.

"Mas, uh... you yaaa! Hehehehe..!"

"Titip sun dear I made an orange, huh? Muacht. Good morning my bidadar! I hung up the phone. Take a shower first!"

"Yes, mom! If you do not take breakfast, then do not forget to eat breakfast at the office?"

"OK baby! Muacht...."

....

I looked up at the closed phone screen. Ranti there had no bad thoughts about our relationship. But why my feelings are getting so bad. My fear kicked my mind. What about Vika? Last night my lips came back to kiss Vika on the forehead. Not to mention Vika's chest continued to stick to me. Warm and full of noise. Also, his fingers are soft, the more often touch my face, my hands, and other parts of my body. What kind of relationship is that. Hhh.... I don't know. We are not friends, let alone brothers. But why does God seem to ease the way for me and Vika to do things that shouldn't be like that. I hugged her. Embracing it. Even carrying his body. The smell of his body was no stranger to my smell. How'this? Why it all seems there is always a way and a way for us to always interact.

"Mass? Want some fried rice breakfast? I made you?" I jumped in shock. Vika surprised me from the daydream. Her plain face without makeup so exuded her natural beauty. I unconsciously looked at her face that was so close to mine.

Ranti kissed my cheek. Swiping it slowly while smiling. He got up and walked into the kitchen without saying any more. I heard a beautiful humming from her lips. I still stared at him until he disappeared behind the kitchen door.

I took a breath and remembered my intention to go to the bathroom.

Near the bathroom door was a small table. On top of it is available a new towel blue sky folded neatly. There's a new toothbrush and the paste too. I smile. Looks like Vika has prepared it earlier. Maybe he woke up earlier. And maybe Vika also heard me video call-an with Ranti. Hhh.... Whatever!

I tidied up my clothes. Still clothes last night. Vika suddenly stood in front of me making me uncomfortable. There's something in his hand.

"Mas, put this on. This new. I intentionally bought it for you! I want to give you but I'm ashamed, afraid I'm angry too. Try it first! That dress looks crumpled. Less appropriate considering the position of mas in the office that must guard the image is also authoritative." I silently looked at the clothes Vika was carrying. Slashing myself in the mirror. Indeed, the clothes I wear look tangled because all night I wear sleep too. But if I wear it, I'm a little uncomfortable to explain it later to Ranti. But Vika's words also had a point. My office in the office is no ordinary employee. In addition to being viewed by subordinates, my superiors must have been able to judge my appearance.

Vika unbuttoned my shirt one by one. I was pounding until it was almost difficult to breathe because Vika's face was too close to mine. Why is he so brave. Touching me without a doubt when I'm not who. And I didn't do anything because my brain was frozen.

He also opened my shirt and replaced it with a new shirt. Again he buttoned it without awkwardness.

"Do I need the pants to help you change, ma'am?" the question surprised me and jumped in shock. Vika laughed satisfied. Looking at my red face like boiled shrimp.

"Why is Dika so cute? I'm getting excited about your innocence, mas!"

I rushed into the bathroom. Replace the pants I wear with new ones.

Like a boy I came out shy. Showed Vika the new clothes I was wearing. And Vika looked at me whole with a face of sumringah.

"Suit size! I'm getting hotter and cooler!" he said he made me smile and passed towards the living room. Honestly, I also like this dress that Vika gave me. The color and the model also make me look better.

Two dishes of fried rice served in the living room table. The smell makes me hungry. Vika presented it in front of me. Give me a glass of warm water before I eat. I don't know where he knows my habits. You should drink a glass of warm water before breakfast. Maybe he asked Ranti, I thought. I read prayer in my heart. Eating a spoonful for a spoonful of fried rice in front of me enthusiastically. It looks like regular fried rice. But it tastes so delicious in my tongue. I like everything Vika cooks like her. And Vika looks smiling satisfied to see my response to her cooking.

I went to work for Vika. Like a wife, Vika accompanied me to the front of my car. Tidying up the folds of my shirt and smiling sweetly took my hand. I brushed aside finely because there were a few people passing by on the street.

I took a hape out of my pants pocket. Find Cecil's number and call him.

"Little? Are you still at home?" I asked without further ado as soon as Cecillia lifted her hape at the end there.

"Okay, don't get in the vehicle. I'm around the Griya housing estate. Just wait there, I'll be here for a minute!" I turned off my phone and got in the car.

Vika pouted looking at me. I smiled at her who was so blatantly jealous of Cecillia.

"Sorry Vika, I have to go. Cecil is at the front of the housing. There's no time to assuage your jealousy. Go have fun again! Scatter your money, find a date if you need to! And I won't want to help you again until you're like last night!" I said firmly making the look on his face turn worried.

"Ga is maaas! I don't want to find a date! Why too!" he said he was trying to defend himself.

"Oiya, noon if there is time we have to go to the bank to create a new account!"

"Maaa! Let you hold it!"

"According to my orders, okay?" I threatened to make Vika sing her lips. I smile. Waving my hand and driving my vehicle. While Vika was still looking at me with a sad look.

Hhh.... Vika! How should I do to you. You're such a mess in my heart right now. And I can't let go of your nets because you're always near me and Ranti.
