Look at Me, My Husband
S1. Chapter 22
“Mas, stop. Don't fight with Stevi anymore. Hasn't your relationship been fine all this time,” said Naina, trying to calm her husband.
Wira was still standing beside the window, pensively staring at the view of the skyscrapers from where he stood.
“Mas, don't be like this. What's the matter with you and Stevi?” ask Naina. Suddenly she hugged her husband from the front. Circling his hands, locking the waist of the Hero.
The man with his right hand tucked in the pocket of the pants lowered his gaze. Naina, who is only limited to her chin, makes the hero freely kiss the head of his wife with a position like this.
“Mas and Stevi's relationship is fine,” said Wira smiling. Down sight. With his left hand wrapped around Naina's waist so that his wife's body remained attached to her.
“Then why did you guys fight, Mas?” naina asked, looking up at Wira.
A smile had to be carved into his lips. The man clutched his wife again. “Because we are good friends, so always fight every time different opinions.”
Sighing heavily, another kiss was sprinkled on Naina's head. Funneling such a heavy burden of life, which he had borne for these two years. If he could choose, he would not hide anything from Naina. His life was not calm, pursued with fear at all times.
His wife is different from other wives. The principle of Naina's life, she knew clearly what it was like. Choosing a hunchback was the best for now, at least he could still enjoy this pseudo happiness for longer with Naina. When all was revealed, he already had no chance. The judge's hammer must have hit the table without her being prevented.
Naina is too hard to persuade. A gentle woman with strong principles, a kind woman with unlimited trust in her. All this time he had been trying to maintain that belief well, until God made another scenario in the path of his life. To be right or wrong, to be conscious or unconscious while doing so, there is no justification. Naina won't forgive him, especially Nola.
“Do not get angry at Stevi. You guys were good friends a long time ago. Nai knows how much Stevi means to your life, Mas. Nai even knows how much Mas loves Stevi.”
“Really? Mas so fond of Stevi in your eyes?” asked Wira smiling wryly.
Naina nodded.
“Nai understands how important your relationship is and Stevi's. Remember, we were dating early. Nai is convinced that Stevi did not nod when Mas presented Nai's photo, Mas hesitated to continue our relationship to a more serious stage. Didn't Mas tell me, if Stevi was the first person Mas asked his opinion about Nai,” Naina reminded.
“Not asking for opinions, Honey. Just share happiness with him.” Hero's errata.
“Dan Stevi was the first person Mas introduced when Nai was the wife of Mas Wira,”, Naina said.
“You remember everything, Nai. Even Mas has forgotten about it.”
The woman in the pink dress nodded. Squeeze his embrace. “Don't be angry with her again, maybe she's having trouble with her family. So get carried away to your work and relationships,” whispered Naina slowly.
The hero nodded, bowing his head pecking at his wife's lips at a glance. “We had lunch? What did Nai bring for Mas?” ask Wira.
“Mas favorite meal,” Naina said, enticing her husband to sit down and enjoy the lunch he brought.
“Eat now, Mas. After that, Nai had to return to the boutique again. There's still work that Nai has to do, Mas.” Naina gave the order while taking her husband to sit down.
His hands nimblely spread the box of supplies filled the table. Her smile bloomed when she saw Wira grabbing a piece of shrimp tub and stuffing it into her mouth.
“Your shrimp master is always delicious and second to none, Nai,” said Wira, pulling the stock box Naina had prepared in front of him.
“In a few days we will fly, Nai. Tidy up all your work,” pinta Wira, feed the rice and side dishes into his mouth.
“Ya, Mas.” The woman seemed to be busy with her phone. Reply to incoming messages from boutique employees.
“Nai ..” The hero began to protest. As usual, the man did not want to be cheated when Naina was with him.
Naina smiled, hurriedly kept her phone and devoted her full attention to her husband. “Sorry Mas, boutique masterpiece,” clear Naina.
“Nai, no eating?” ask Wira, frowning her forehead. Surprised to see his wife just staring at the food lying on the table.
“A minute. Nai wants to talk to Stevi. Can?” ask Naina.
Naina shakes. “For a long time no casual chat with him.”
“Ten minutes, after that quickly back. Mas misses you,” Wira said, grabbing the phone on the table and typing the threatening sentence he sent to Stevi.
“Yes, Nai is just a moment,” said goodbye to Naina, hurrying out to see her husband's secretary.
As Naina exited the room, Stevi was looking at her phone, hurriedly walking towards the elevator. The woman looked sullen, the remnants of her quarrel with Wira still look real on her face.
“Stev, wait. Where are you going?” naina asked, trying to catch up.
“I'm going to the cafeteria, Mistress. Lunch,” Stevi said, standing waiting for the elevator door to open.
“I'm coming. There's something I want to talk about,” explained Naina.
Stevi nodded in a sign of understanding. Not only this time they talked. His relationship with Wira, making his relationship with Naina also run well. Although sometimes Stevi still feel awkward, considering Naina is the wife of his superior.

“What's up, Mistress?” stevi asked, as soon as he sat facing Naina.
Today's company canteen is not too crowded visitors. Unlike usual, full of boisterous lowly employees chatting to spend his lunch time.
“Call me, Nai only. I don't want to discuss anything serious, Stev.” Naina opened her voice, while sipping the orange juice she ordered.
“What's Nai? What's the problem?” stevi asked trying to be ordinary.
“Why fight with Mas Wira. You know Stev, Mas Wira was pensive after a fight with you. I know, he didn't want this fight either. Weren't you good friends all this time.” Naina says.
“Yes, Nai. I'm guilty too. I'm having trouble at home. My son is sick,” Stevi explained.
“Oh yes, Nola hurts what?” ask Naina, be concerned.
“Why not ask permission Mas Wira only. Poor your son, Stev.”
Stevi.
“Im sorry Mas Wira, maybe he is having a lot of trouble at his job. I beg you to understand Stev, don't put it in your heart. The words of Mas Wira just now, just a momentary emotion. He didn't mean to hurt you.”
“Mas Wira loves you very much. As a friend, Mas Wira really cares about you. Your relationship isn't two months, you've been together a long time. Even we can sit together this close also because of your relationship and Mas Wira,” said Naina.
“Do not think, I will persuade Mas Wira not to get angry again. You are like family. Even the two parents of Mas Wira already consider you their daughter.”
“Yes, Nai.” Stevie doesn't talk much. Just nodding and assenting since.
“I remember when I married Mas Wira, my mom told me a lot about you. Mama's worried I'll suspect your relationship with Mas Wira.”
Stevi nodded back, his tongue shriveled. Given how close his relationship with Wira and his family used to be, but everything changes. When her status became the wife of Wira, not just Wira, the Wira family began to move away from her.
“Well Stev, I have to go back. Can't take too long. Mas Wira only gave me ten minutes to talk to you,” said Naina.
Just as she stood up and turned around, Naina bumped into someone. The tray containing the food in the hands of the man he hit was spilled, messy on the floor.
“Angie ...” said the man when he recognized Naina.
