Love Because ...

Husband Lover

Rara is busy fiddling with her android in Tia's room, her finger is straightforwardly browsing Whatsapp messages. His thumb slid back and forth, until his finger stopped at one contact, Mr. Rian, quickly sending a WA message.

(Assalamualaikum sir Rian healthy?)

Celkist one, signifying the message has not been received by Mr. Rian.

Suddenly his phone vibrated there was an incoming call, seen a number that he did not know. Rara frowned in wonder.

‘Whose number is’ muttered, silent for a moment, then Rara immediately raised her call.

“Assalamualaikum?”

“Wa’alaikumussalam." female voice sounds familiar.

"Who are you?”

“This is me Ranti."

Rara remained silent, surprised. His heart skipped a beat, his mouth locked he was at a loss for what to say.

“I want to talk to meet me at Mandiri's cafe this afternoon at one.. Tettt.”

Ranti hung up the phone.

(Table 12)

A short message Ranti sent to Rara. Rara searched the twelve tables accompanied by Ayu without Tia's knowledge, seeing a beautiful woman already sitting at the table. Rara told Ayu to wait for her at a different table, she immediately approached Ranti.

“Ranti?” Ranti reached out her right hand trying to be friendly. Rara shook her hand even though she initially hesitated to shake the hand of someone who had been terrorizing her all along.

Ranti invited Rara to sit, Diliatnya Ranti sat up straight and her neck slightly raised upwards, indicating she is not an ordinary woman. Her classy dress up wears a white sleeveless shirt and cream silk brown toad pants. Her hair was heavily unraveled, her beautiful face was decorated with full make-up, next to which was an expensive import bag, depicting her as a socialite woman.

Ranti also saw Rara from top to bottom, inversely proportional to herself Rara whose hair in a simple ponytail only uses a long-sleeved blue shirt and cotton pants plus her flat shoes. Two beautiful women who have different levels of fhasion.

“You order?” tawal Ranti's. Rara shook her head.

“Ok! to the point first of all I apologize for the terror that I have been making, secondly I ask you to leave this city, I know you've been hitching a ride on Sriyantika's mom and working in her son's office. Don't worry, I'll pay for all your life. You want to go where I will facilitate everything you need and I will offer a job with a position much better than this, can?” said arrogant.

Both of his hands were folded across his chest and spoke in a haughty tone.

“No.” reply Rara quickly.

“Loh why? If your money matters don't worry, I will..”.

“One of you apologizes but there is no remorse in you, the second you ask me to leave this city, but you kind of order a burger from a fast food restaurant, sorry my lady Ranti is not your man, excuse me!” Rara stood up she was about to leave, but Ranti quickly grabbed Rara's hand.

“I beg you, sit down for a while I will explain everything.”

His arrogant tone began to fade, his anger also receded, Rara sat back she was getting ready to hear Ranti's explanation.

“I and Bagas have known since childhood, Bagas father is a close friend of mine. He was a laborer in my mustache. Both my parents have a much different nature, should I always see the person from his heart, diligent, or enterprising the person, he does not think too much about the material, while my amak, he said, all he thought about was position, money, possessions and materials. He always told me to find a husband who was equal to our family. Because amak more often dominates me at home, my mindset agrees with amak. Surely surely you already know why our marriage happened?”

Rara nodded slowly.

“At that time there was no love between us. I have my own love as well as Bagas. At the beginning of the marriage Bagas accepted the fate sincerely, but in contrast to me, I always rebelled against this marriage. Let alone me serve him, be polite I never did, abuse and insults I often do to him and his family. After I got married, I got divorced several times, I can't sue him in court because if I give my will I will not be considered a child if I divorce Bagas and all the property I have will be donated. So I tried my hardest to persuade Bagas to want to divorce me, but Bagas did not want, therefore I acted by dating some of my male friends, so that he hated me, so that he hated me, until I realized..” Ranti was silent for a moment while taking a swing.

“now I have fallen in love with him.” he continued with appreciation.

Hearing the word falling in love there is a stabbing pain in Rara's heart, she does not like the words thrown by Ranti. But what power people in front of him more entitled.

“Rara, I know you are my husband's lover, since a month ago I accidentally saw you the same way Bagas and Mila. I thought maybe Bagas was just revenge on me, until I was shocked when I saw Bagas fitting a wedding dress. I hired someone to look for your background, I know you're amnesiac and you didn't know Bagas was married and had a wife, and I know you were someone Bagas loved in college. One thing that makes me confused why he hid your real name, Febby Febriani became Rara Febriani. Turns out that he used to manipulate whatsapp messages he for me, being him for you, he always called my short name ‘Ra’.  The short message he showed you that contained a video call, it was all for me. Bagas always make video calls to remind me to eat, or pay attention to me, but getting here it is rare, never even done" said Ranti sadly.

Ranti Starts to shed tears, Rara offers her a tissue, Ranti smiles accepting it.

“Rara I know Bagas, he is not a guy who gives up easily. Moreover, he has loved you before. You may one day fall out with him, I am sure Bagas will not stop spelling you unless you leave this city of Rara. So I beg you Rara please save my household, I will facilitate everything Rara, everything you need.”

Ranti changed direction, who had been acting presumptuous now she cried begging Rara.

“Do you want to fix your household?”

Ranti clapped quickly many times the spirit answered Rara.

“We have to make him fall in love with you.” said Rara makes Ranti happy to hear the words of her who wants to work with Ranti. Ranti clasped both hands tightly.

“Rara thanks, thanks, but would you like to leave this city?” wheedled.

Rara nodded.

"In condition.”

“What? anything I'll give you.”

“One of you must fulfill your obligations as a wife, the obligations of birth and mind.”

“Pasti.” said Ranti excited.

“Both of you should serve him as a good wife, every morning provide his favorite breakfast and drinks, home from work you should serve him immediately remove his tie, put his briefcase and cook food for him, he said, the basic things alone at least prepare rice to his plate serve him prepare drinking water for him, can?”

“But can it be done by assistant ra?” he said, it is not accustomed to Ranti doing as a spoiled child.

“Can or not?” Rara did not want to negotiate apparently made Ranti think for a moment.

“Good, then what?”

“Three do good to his rampage Bagas, accept him like his own mother. Then approach Mila, grab her heart. You can take him away once a week, whatever you want to eat together or shopping I think it's not a heavy thing you can do to conquer his heart Mila. Then accompany Amak Bagas to check up once a month, the rest invite him to go for a walk.”

Ranti sighed she felt hard doing all that, but had to agree that Rara would leave this city.

“Continue, there again?”

Rara shook her head. Then Ranti takes out a check, she writes down some money she gave the check to Rara.

“It's for accommodation and money you need."

Rara returned the check.

“I don't need this, I'll watch you through Mila. One day you will be negligent, I will return to this city, and you must allow Mila to stay in your department, not forever just initially to make sure you do what we have agreed.” threatened Rara.

“Ranti we have to talk to amak about this, we have to persuade him that you are serious about changing, arrange our meeting with amak, without Bagas or Mila.”

“When?”

“Secapnya.”

“Kalo so how about tomorrow, tomorrow Monday, Bagas definitely leave for work, and Mila lectures.”

Rara nodded in agreement.

Ranti is shocked by Rara's refusal of her check. Plus he wants to help her fix her house. It is only fitting that Bagas fell in love with her, God blessed her with a heart filled with kindness. From appearances it might be ordinary, but her heart, Ranti might not be able to match him.

Ranti knew Rara must have fallen in love with Bagas so she wanted to marry him. It is not easy for someone to do what Rara did, if only it was not Rara, maybe the woman had taken Bagas from him, Ranti had envied him.
