Married by Promise

Let's get some sleep

While at school, Mila was completely unable to focus on what she was doing, her mind still drifted away at Arya, the man who had been spinning in her mind since noon yesterday.

Even the name Arnes felt empty when he tried to remember their meeting yesterday.

Mila opens her phone and looking for Arya's number, she expends her courage to call Arya and apologizes for her mistake,

‘ya, I have to apologize, I have to fix this all immediately, the problem bang Arnes, later I will think of a way out, the important thing is he goes home first and grandfather does not know this problem’ inner Mila,

He searches for Arya's number in his contacts, when he finds it, he returns to take a deep breath in annoyance,

‘the phone is destroyed, the simcard is also not taken’ because it is Mila who cleans the Arya phone shards and stores Arya's simcard, too,

Mila then takes out her wallet and picks up the Aryan simcard she kept there,

Mila then inserts Arya's simcard into her phone, maybe she can find Tomy's contact, or someone else she might be able to ask about Arya's whereabouts.

When opening a contact on Arya's simcard, he only found 7 numbers stored there, he said,

'why is this, does he have no acquaintances or friends at all, why only keep 7 numbers only, or maybe other contacts stored on his phone?'

Mila then read the contact's name one by one, the numbers stored in contact with Arya namely Arbi, Ari, Aunt, Uncle, Rita, and Tomy, respectively, and one more name that makes his chest feel tight and a drop of tears fell there, my beloved wife, that's the name stored in the Aryan simcard, Arya,

When Mila saw her number and she realized, it was her own mobile number, her chest was getting claustrophobic, not believing Arya to call her his beloved wife, even though since marriage, she was still married, his attitude was never at all good to Arya.

“why Mil?” syifa's voice surprised Mila, Syifa saw a sad looking Mila then approached her,

“nothing kak“ elak Mila,

“if there is a problem, just a story, sometimes if we tell a story, the problem will feel lighter”

Mila then seemed worried, and with all the courage she had, she then opened her voice to Syifa.

“kak, can I ask?” said Mila who then answered Syifa with a nod of the head,

“kakak never said, if brother and sister husband only know 2 weeks before deciding to get married, do you love each other within 2 weeks?”

“what do you think a woman can fall in love within 2 weeks Mil, what else is her man is just an ordinary person who is not handsome, not rich, and also not much to say, do you think I can love her in 2 weeks?”

“last?”

“it took me 6 months to receive it Mil, what else back then I was really heartbroken with my ex, we were dating 5 years, and it turns out she just wanted my body, she said, I finally found out he was cheating, and we had a big fight, we broke up and luckily for me, I didn't give my honor to that jerk, in those circumstances my husband came, she said, I accepted it because it was with that quiet attitude that he became stiff in front of me, and of course his attitude was so funny that I was a little comforted in the middle of my broken heart, but who would have thought, he said, behind his rigid and quiet attitude, he dared to meet my parents when we had only known each other for 2 weeks, and I accepted it forcedly because my parents considered himself a good person, and we were married, and I accepted, I learned to open my heart to her, and you know how I fell in love with her?”

“how are you?”

“he said Mil, he rarely said love for me, but his kind attitude made me the most special woman in the world, his attitude really made me like the luckiest woman to have him, she said, and that love comes into its own”

Mila smiled at Syifa's story,

“do you have any doubts about your girlfriend Mil?, or are you being asked to marry someone you don't love, so you ask me like this?” ask Syifa, please,

“no, where maybe I doubt my girlfriend, I love her and she loves me, and I also don't want to marry the person I don't love” Mila replied steadily without any hesitation there, saying,

‘astaga, why can I lie so well like this’

“really?, if your girlfriend asks you for anything, leave it alone, such a man is just curious about your body and after getting your body, he will definitely dump you”

deg, Mila's heart beats a little faster, his mind drifts during his courtship with Arnes in college, Arnes often asks him to do the things a married couple should do,

‘no, that was it, now bang Arnes never asked for it again, he was a good man, and his inner good priest candidate’ tried to dodge what had happened before between him and Arnes, and,

Mila is busy looking at her phone, she is sitting on the porch beside the house, her eyes look far into the yard and the streets, there is a hope in her heart for Arya will soon return to the house.

However, the longer he waited, the more his chest tightened, the guilt re-emerged, the fear of loss re-emerged, Arya's unwillingness left him.

Mila then opened her phone and looked back at the contact on Arya's simcard, her heart beating fast again when she saw the writing of her beloved wife there,

‘does he really love me?'

His eyes returned to another name that made him feel strange, there was the name Rita in the simcard Arya, another woman's name that made him feel a little strange, ‘he only keeps 7 numbers here, <TAG1>, this must be everyone important to him, then who is this Rita?, his sister? her brother? her boyfriend? his fiancee?, his affair?, his future wife?, no-no way, obviously here he made my name with his beloved wife’ his inner wrestle is not careless.

Mila then saved Tomy's number to her phone, and then she immediately met Tomy,

‘assaamualaikum Tom, it's Mila, his wife Arya’ Mila,

Long enough Mila waiting for a reply from Tomy,

‘walaikumussalam Mil, what is it? who did you get my contact from? Arya?’ Tomy,

‘Tom, do you know where Arya is now?’ Mila, please,

Tomy who was sleeping in her bed snorted annoyedly reading Mila's chat for not answering her question.

‘no, where is he?’ Tomy,

‘Arya didn't come home from last night, I'm afraid’ Mila,

Tomy's face turned happy, ‘did she start liking you Arya?’ insinuatingly

‘maybe he is now again in the office, phone aja’ Tomy,

Mila read Tomy's chat with half a shock,

'office?, where does he work? not that he's unemployed, all this time he just said odd jobs, or he just received work?’

Mila was really confused at that time, 3 months of marriage he went through without knowing Arya in the slightest, he did not even know who Arya's friends were, he did not even know who Arya was, the Aryan family and also what Arya did when she got out of the house.

‘dia work office Tom?’ write Mila, but she quickly deletes the message,

'no, if I ask like that, it's the same way I show Tomy I'm a bad wife because I don't know my husband's job,

‘his phone at Tom's stay, I don't know who to contact Mila’,

‘not usually he leaves his phone, if you are not busy, just check to his office, maybe he again has a work deadline, so do not go home last night’ Tomy, he said,

‘that's Tom, may I ask for his office address, Arya has never told me where his office’ Mila, please,

Some time later Tomy gave Arya an office address, and Mila replied with a thank you.

Mila then looked at the street again, there was a feeling of doubt in her, she said,

‘do I have to go to his office, or do I just wait for him to come back here, but what if he plays with another woman?, no, no, no, no, my God, Mila, what the hell are you doing?, let alone in with other women, you can be free with bang Arnes.’

Mila's heart was completely muddled by her current state, she rubbed her face with both palms confused by her own heart condition.

Vanessa who saw Mila's strange behavior behind the glass door of the side porch scrunched her forehead.he then approached Mila.

"why are you Mil?"
