Happy reading my loved readers🥰
"Morning, dear!"
I immediately turned to the right, when I heard a fairly familiar greeting to me, when I was locking the house before leaving for campus today.
Take it easy, today there is no drama from Bang Samuel anymore. Because I learned from yesterday about taking care of my husband. Until there's no reason for Bang Samuel to scold me.
Now, the man had already left for the office, after finishing my homemade breakfast that he wanted to eat.
"Morning, An," I said cheerfully,
when I saw Ana's whereabouts.
Very kind apartment neighbors.
Ana was a widow, who decided not to remarry after her husband died.
Ana says her love for her husband is eternal, so she can't accept any man anymore.
After all, he is now over 50 years old. She has no desire for a household anymore.
After all, when it comes to biological needs, he can still afford any g*g*l* to satisfy it.
Don't be surprised, this is out of the picture. Of course, ****free is common.
"Are you going to college, my dear?" she asked, after I gave her a warm hug this morning.
If in Indonesia I have Mama Lina as a replacement for my mother who is gone. So here, I have An, who I consider my own mother.
He was baiiikkkk once.
"Yes, An. Today I go to college by noon." I said as usual.
"Oh .. nice. Don't forget to take care of your health, my dear. The weather is starting to be unfriendly" he said kindly.
"I knew. Thanks for reminding me. You also take care of your health, An," I reply, while juxtaposing his steps.
Judging from his clothes, it looks like An is also just about to leave for work.
"Of course, Dear. I always take care of my health, because no one will take care of me if I get sick later. Even if I die suddenly, my body will definitely be found after rotting."
He tried to wander, even though I knew the meaning of his words very deeply.
Although he looks relaxed and indifferent with his single life. But I know for sure, sometimes you feel lonely.
After all, we are social creatures, right? So, of course we certainly need someone else to just accompany.
Same with An. Although he is sometimes independent, even impressed not to need others. But An is still an ordinary man.
"Don't talk like that An, there's still me. You can call me if you need anything," I tried to cheer him up.
"And you're going too, right? After your college is over?"
Right too, anyway?
"Therefore, there is no need to think of me, Dear. I'm used to it myself."
He relaxed his hands. Before stepping into the elevator. I followed him immediately.
I understand what An means. He just doesn't want to rely too much on others, knowing that one day he will be left behind.
Hence, all this time. He always tries to rely on himself, so he does not need to rely on others.
He can live alone.
"Ah, yes. I met your cousin yesterday. He's handsome and nice, huh? I love it" he said suddenly.
No doubt, I also immediately frowned confused. Because ... feeling there hasn't been a single cousin of mine, who visited me this year. They were all busy, and.
So, which cousin did you mean?
"Cousin?" beoku slow.
"Yes, cousin. The handsome brown-skinned, sharp-eyed man and. "
Huh uh?!
Meanin? Don't-don't ....
"If his name is not Samuel!"
Ah, I guessed it! It was Bang Samuel who was called An. But ... Why did An say to my cousin?
"Oh, Bang Samuel," I just pretended to mutter. Because I was confused to explain how to An, about Bang Samuel.
I told you, right? No one knows if I'm married.
"Yes, Samuel. Last night I accidentally ran into him when I came home from work." Unasked, An opened the story.
"Initially, I thought he had the wrong address, because he looked confused on the doorstep of your apartment. When I asked him if he needed help or not, it turns out he was your cousin who was staying over."
"He said that?"
"Yes! Although his face was very stiff and flat. But he's kind enough to help me carry things, when I'm having trouble finding keys in a bag."
"Ah, so, huh?" Back, I only responded at a glance, because .. there was actually something else that bothered my mind.
Cousin? Bang Samuel introduced himself to Ann as a cousin? That means, he did not want anyone else to know about our status.
After that, I could only smile silently. Before saying goodbye to An, because our direction is different.
Cousin, huh?
Alright.
\*\*\*
"Come, Hani. It's been a while, right? We don't hang out together."
"Yess I know. But, I'm really not going anywhere, Jul," I refused firmly, in July my best friend here, when he invited me to go to the Mall after college later.
"But why? Are you that busy, Hani? Until now you don't have time just me?" the demands are getting upset. Because indeed, these few months I have never obeyed his wishes.
It'sit's nothing. I was just deepening my Business, and started coming to the office often to study my father's Business.
Usually, every time I go home from college, I will take the time to come to the office. But since there was Bang Samuel, I chose to live in an apartment, and entrusted everything to Bang Samuel.
However, still it was not the reason I could relax anymore, and again spend the day at the Mall like I used to. Because actually, the existence of Bang Samuel made me go nowhere.
He's not that hard to guess. Sometimes it appears without warning and ... there are patterns that make me always have to be vigilant.
Like today, while trying to subtly reject Juli. Suddenly he just came, and took me home in front of my friends. Makes everyone look at me in full view.
"Who is he, Hani? Your boyfriend?" sue July, after scanning Bang Samuel with insolence.
"Well, Hani, you? It turned out to have a lover, secretly" seduced Joseph, as he stroked my arm.
But I just shook my head in response, and glanced at Bang Samuel to introduce himself. Because I don't want to introduce him wrongly.
However, the man just kept quiet, like handing everything to me. He made me sigh slowly, before replying, "Don't gossip. He's just my cousin."
Either true or not. I saw Bang Samuel's gaze instantly sharpen. A second after I said that sentence.
What's wrong? Didn't she herself claim to be my cousin to An?
I just follow the flow. Then why does he seem to dislike it?
"What did you mean?!"
Bang Samuel rebuked me as soon as we got to the apartment.
"I mean? What's?" Not that I don't understand the direction of Bang Samuel's question, only, I want to confirm my guess.
"No need to pretend, Hani. I know you understand what my question means. You're not a fool!" bang Samuel said, still with the same irritated tone.
I finally sighed for a while, before replying, "What do you mean is, I introduced you as my cousin?"
"Of course, what else besides that?!" Quickly answer. Even too fast in my opinion.
"Lho, I guess you really want to be known by such a status here?"
No doubt, I asked back. Confused by his attitude. Why should she be angry, if she herself claims to be my cousin to An.
"I never said that!" emphatically.
"But yesterday you introduced yourself as my cousin to, An?" I tried to defend myself.
"An? Who?" Bang Samuel's question became more confused.
"The neighbors of this apartment." Reply quickly.
He then fell silent, thinking. Maybe he's trying to digest my words.
"You mean that old lady who has that eccentric style?" Samuel tried to confirm.
"Yes, he's An." I said yes
He was seen throwing his face with a gaze that .. I don't know, like clumsy or awkward.
But from the look on his face, I knew his frustration had lessened a bit.
"If it's obviously different." In fact, he did not immediately admit wrong. He's still insistent, as if he doesn't want me to feel guilty .
"How different?" Of course it makes me confused again. As I got here, I felt like Bang Samuel was a chameleon.
"Obviously it's different. That old woman is your neighbor. She would have gossiped if she knew I was your husband, but never seen. I don't want to be a lip. While on campus, your friends. They should know that you are married, so that no one will dare to ask you out. Remember Hani's wife is her husband's outfit."
Sounds selfish, right? What does it mean try? Neighbors should not know I am married, while friends should know.
In fact, my friends actually visit here more often than neighbors. Then, if they ask about the whereabouts of Bang Samuel who has never been seen? What do I have to answer?
"But bang-"
"Easy! I am lazy to talk about this again. You're a wayward, aren't you? I know wrong, I still do. Could it be, the same husband a little? Would you like me to label my ungodly wife?"
Holy hooch!
What am I wrong again? Why does everything I do not seem to be right in the eyes of Bang Samuel.
"You should really learn from Alisia. Because Alisia is not only obedient, but good at making my heart happy. That's why I'm proud to have a wife like her."
Alisia again! Alisia again!
To be honest, I actually never wanted to be jealous, or think that Alisia was my rival all along.
Because what? Because I know myself I'm just a picture here. I'm a bully and just a backup.
I know and try to accept my destiny.
But if Bang Samuel continues to compare us deliberately. I could be upset for a long time too.
Because I'm also an ordinary human being, who can be hurt and have selfish feelings.
It doesn't matter if she doesn't love me, or is forced to be here with me because of Mama Lina's demands. That's why he always sniffles and doesn't look at me. I understand that.
But I am also his wife, right? Can he appreciate me a little?
No need to overdo it. Just take care of my feelings and don't compare me to his wife
the other. Because I can be hurt too. Or ... Better shut up and ignore me. I'd appreciate that more.
"Ck, really suck." Bang Samuel was upset. Before finally leaving me, headed upstairs where the main room was.
Lord ... until when do I have to survive this marriage?
