Married To Chef Jutek

Wrong What?

Melati and Rega stop at a painting shop. They went down in tandem, Rega invited Melati to see something there. They are now waiting for someone. Not long after came a hijab-wearing woman carrying something in her hand, quite large, it seemed to be a wall painting about a meter in size. In Melati's heart wondered, what painting is that?

"Thank you, yes Ma'am." Rega told the woman and gave some money while taking over the painting, after which the woman passed.

"What is this, Doc?" tanya Melati approached the painting that was already in the hands of Doctor Rega, the painting was still covered in white cloth.

Doctor Rega opened the white cloth on the painting slowly and saw the painting Melati with her mother-in-law, Rega and Arjuna.

It was the moment where Melati sat down and kissed her mother-in-law's hand, while Ms. Hertini seemed to kiss the top of her daughter-in-law's head. Melati was amazed by the painting, she was amazed to look and feel it.

"Sorry, Ma'am. I took the picture without excuse. This is my gift to Ma'am as a thank you. Because Ma'am, my Mama's spirit and happiness are back."

"It's great, Doc. MashaAllah ... Thank you very much, yes! It's okay I like to see all of this. I don't have a photo of my mom."

Doctor Rega compared the painting to Melati and the woman happily accepted it.

"If I may, I'd like to invite Madam Melati to eat first. I just drove you home."

Melati who had been watching his painting since then, was now staring at Doctor Rega.

"Eat?"

"Yes, if Madam Melati doesn't mind."

"Hhhh, just a minute, Doc!"

"Yes, we're done eating right home, ma'am."

"All right."

Finally they went to a restaurant.

***

In a restaurant Rega sat opposite Melati. There was so much the young doctor wanted to say to his sister-in-law. Although Melati did not talk much, but Rega was happy to be close to him. The hope of regrouping with Arjuna was so great that it was placed on her shoulders.

Rega ordered food and drinks. While waiting, the man poured his complaints on Melati.

"That day, when Brother Arjuna asked me to choose between him and Mama. I really lost my brother. I can't possibly leave mom alone, while Arjuna's sister is old enough to get through her days. I think as time goes on, over time this relationship can improve by itself, the fact is that until now there has been no progress. The day you married, I was among those paparazzi, Ma'am. I wish you both good wishes and wish you a happy marriage."

"Thank you, Doc." Only that was ejected from the thin lips of the woman before him, after which he again lowered his gaze.

Seeing the attitude of Melati Rega smiled, in the present time there are rarely women who can keep the words and views like the woman in front of him. If he were still alone, if his heart had not been. Of course he can still get one woman like Melati. Unknowingly Rega daydreamed for himself, but soon came to his senses when a man coughed beside their table.

'Astaghfirullah, what am I thinking.' He tried to throw that thought away. Then refocus on the goal.

"I hope big, Mbak Melati can bring back Kak Arjuna with us. Because I know, he loves Ma'am very much, even I often see his attitude change on TV. If he used to be loud, no matter what other people feel, now he can better control his emotions and spicy words. Is Ma'am Melati willing to help us?"

Melati fell silent, in her little heart, she was eager to make her mother-in-law and husband reunite.

"I'll work on it, Doc."

"Thank you, Ma'am." Melati only smiled faintly.

"Excuse me, the order came," said a waiter carrying food and drinks in a tray, then placed them on the table.

"Come, Ma'am. Please eat!" take Dr. Rega.

Without them realizing there was a pair of eyes were paying attention since earlier. Mariska, a friend of Arjuna's profession is gathering with some of his social friends there. He seemed to know Melati, but hesitated to approach her. Finally he just took a picture of the two of them and will ask Arjuna later tonight.

***

Arjuna had just returned from the set. He was tired and wanted to rest.

'Maybe I can call my wife tomorrow. He must be tired today because he has to take care of his inner Revi. Arjuna went straight to the bathroom.

Finish cleaning yourself and pray Isya Arjuna lying in bed. Just now he's about to close the phone's vibrating eyes. A message from Mariska.

[Juna, I'd like to see Melati again eating at the same restaurant I did today, try to check out this photo. I am afraid of being wrong.]

Mariska sent me a photo. Arjuna's face flushed for a moment when he saw the woman he was sitting in, eating together with his own sister in a restaurant.

'Is it possible that Melati has been meeting him behind my back? Wh why? Are they cheating? Is this one of the reasons I won't come with you?'

All sorts of conjectures were lodged in the man's brain. He immediately called someone.

"Hello, I'm Arjuna. Please follow my wife's activities every day. Send the report every day. Wherever he went and met anybody."

"Good, Sir." Phone turned off.

Arjuna could not close his eyes, his heart was hot. Not long after the phone vibrates. It was Melati who called him.

Arjuna was silent, he refused to lift. His mood is not good. He was afraid his anger peaked if he immediately asked the wife he loved so much. Because it never lifted finally Melati just send a message.

[Mas, maybe you're tired today, so don't pick up the phone. Sorry, yes. I shouldn't have barred you from leaving that time and behaving like a child. I realize your work is important, too, Mom. Because behind a successful man there is a great woman beside him. And I want to be that woman, I want to support you from now on. I will be patient waiting here. Do not forget to eat and pray. Carefully working. I know that I watch the show every day on TV. Working spirit. Love you (emot love)]

Arjuna took a deep breath. Close your eyes and try to calm down.

'even now he doesn't mind me leaving. Wh why? Is it because you want to be free to meet Rega there? What's wrong with both of them?'

Arjuna was wrong. He couldn't even close his eyes for a second. He can't wait to get word from the detective he hired. If it is proven that there is something between them Arjuna promises not to forgive his wife.

***

After that day Arjuna never called his wife, while Melati never knew that her husband hired a detective to follow her wherever he went. He still regularly visited his mother Arjuna, sometimes invited Rega. His attitude remained the same, irritated to speak, he only appreciated Rega as his sister-in-law, nothing more.

More and more Arjuna gets photos of his wife and his sister. His heart was burning with jealous flames. Melati's message was only occasionally responded to by it it was only a few words. Melati was confused by her husband's attitude.

That night Melati was just sitting Dreaming on the balcony of the house, she looked at the sky above. His heart was empty, there was no joke, there was no love as usual, it was even more than a week. Where is the lover who has loved him so much. Melati even turns into a spoiled and cheerful woman after finding comfort with Arjuna.

"Mas, what are you doing there?" ask him on thousands of stars that spread wide. "I miss!" his voice began to crackle. He swallowed his saliva several times. His chin was until it furrowed withstanding this sorrow. "Mas, when are you coming home?" ask him on the endless sky.

The shadows of faces, the laughter and their romanticism eroded the deepest recesses of his heart. His face began to heat up, the water in his eyes began to pool. Melati could not bear, her head was bowed suddenly, she sobbed. His longing is so deep for his beloved husband.

"Mas, what's wrong with you? hyks hyks. Are you angry? If you're angry tell me what's wrong, Mas?" Melati was crying inside both of her elbows.

But the truth is far away, jealousy has sealed Arjuna's heart. Every night he only noticed the photos of his wife and his younger brother together. Hate, emotion and disbelief penetrated into the recesses of his soul.

"Wait for me to come home!" he said softly, looking sharply at the photo.
