Lany sat pensively on one of the sofas located in the corner of Loby. It has become a habit, he likes to mojok in certain places especially when he feels he has a severe problem.
Like at this moment exactly, where his mind was unceasingly thinking about what Andra was discussing with the woman who appeared at the beginning with that fiery anger. Makes Lany wonder who she really is.
It feels like Lany wants to cry, somehow knowing a lot about Andra does not make it as calm as the beginning of the marriage first. The more he knew who Andra was, the greater the fear perched in his heart. Worry is real and very self-controlled. Even so, Lany still prayed the best for their relationship in the future.
“Hai..,"
Someone's words made him look at the source of the voice. A formal-looking man, standing in front of him, held out a bottle of mineral water.
Lany long enough to look at the figure of the man. As if they had met before.
“You don't remember who I am?"
The man's question made Lany aware if she was opening the mask that she should wear according to Andra's orders. Obviously the man could recognize his face, because indeed they had met before.
“Don't really remember?" He sat down next to Lany. The man's actions suddenly made Lany immediately move to another sofa and shook her head afterwards in response, making the man smile knot .
"Jeez, you're young but you're senile."
Lany just screeched her words. Very familiar and close! that's what came to Lany's head about how she described this man's attitude.
"hey, I'm the one who nawarin you food in the ballroom of the Rich Caltonz hotel, fitting new year's night!”
Lany who heard that instantly blew her punch. Hmmnt, it seems like this is Lany's habit. He chuckled as he remembered who this man was, he was not being pretentious and close-knit. But they had met before. It's just Lany forgot. Yes, he was the one who had offered him food on the eve of the new year.
“Where? you remember that, right?" The man smiled clumsily while holding his arm which was painful due to Lany's punch.
“Hehe yes, I remember. Sorry, I forgot."
“Ngapain is here?" Ask the man, trying to get the chat.
The confused Lany had to answer what, silent for a moment. It's impossible if he's telling the truth, this guy obviously knows who Andra is, they work in the same building. It is impossible not to know.
“E,eemmin"
“You came with Andra again?"
“Uhuk, uhuk.” The man's question made Lany cough. When Lany was about to make a refusal, not to justify her words. Again the unknown man broke what he wanted to say.
“I saw you coming with.”
Lany who does not know what to answer just scratched his neck, do not want to look stupid and misbehaved, Lany tried to melt the atmosphere by trying to ask.
“You yourself why are you here?" Lany cursed her stupidity, she obviously knew it was certain that the man was working here, but she asked this ridiculous question instead.
“I, work here.”
Answers that should be predictable.
“Oh yes, whose name are you?" the man stretched out his hand, but Lany did not reply at all. He prefers to allow the mask. The memory of her andra's wife made her to be cautious, afraid that one day everyone would know that she was the wife of an Andra had been so close to another man in her husband's own company. What people say later, of course Lany should be able to maintain the image.
The man pulled back his hand when Lany did not respond at all to "My name is Rival Megantara, can be called Rival or Val.”
“Melany, Lany..” he said indifferently.
“I'm adek of that guy."
“Hah?" Lany was in disbelief. Trying to digest what is meant. Who's the sister of him? Whose man is meant here? Lany has never met anyone other than Andra. Does that mean he's Andra's sister.
What is the ****?? If that's true, is he talking to his sister-in-law. It's hard to understand how it could all be a coincidence.
“But your names are not the same?” Yes, Lany asked that.if indeed the brothers should both have the same last name, right?
Rival was astonished, “you know Andra, you know her last name?” ask Rival full of questions.
Lany cursed her stupidity that had just been aiming for the very core thing.
“Eh,” Lany slah manner, while trying to find the right answer, "Sure. anyone who does not know Andra, diakan famous businessman.” said Lany looking for an excuse, almost he leaked everything. As per the agreement, all will only know who Lany is only when Andra introduces. She must not be rash not to know that she introduced herself as the wife of Andra. Of course, he will immediately be suspected of halu or maybe mental illness.
“Ah yes also.” Rival nodded making Lany sigh in relief could make Rival believe in the reason.
“So me and Andra brother one Father, different mother.” Lany was again surprised to hear it, all this time Andra had not told if she had a sister, but Rival's confession made her stunned. How could a new person openly say such a personal thing to her. And what was that just now, they were different mothers? Does that mean Andra's father has two wives.
“Papi said my last name is different because Mami Inka does not want her son to have the same name as me, Mami changed the last name of Kak Andra and Adara, our sister uses Ervano. First name Papi. Understand my mama's just Siri's wife!" Rival chuckles amusedly.
Now that Lany was starting to understand, it was appropriate that Rival explained this much detail. This is the answer to the question that asks why their names are different. It turned out that the reason behind it was all quite stressful. From here Lany knows a little about the Andra family.
It was fitting that Andra once said the story of our parents is almost the same, it turns out this is the reason. Lirih Lany while remembering their chat while on the motorbike on the way from the village to Lany's house in the city at that time.
Although deep in his heart, he was astonished to see Rival who seemed to open family disgrace to new people like himself.
“And my mother has died since I was a child.. I was only raised by Papi, Mami Inca as well. She hates me but has been taking care of me ever since Mama died.”

“Who did I meet?" Lany asked enthusiastically as they had just arrived at the apartment, having just finished dinner.
“I know." Andra looked at Lany who was walking behind her.
"You see?" Ask Lany wonder.
“Other times don't get close to Rival!” andra's sweat while laying her body on the sofa.
“Why? She was good.” asked Lany wonder, why her husband forbade her to be close to his own sister-in-law. Shouldn't that be a good thing.
“Ck, just met you already said he was good!" Andra ruffled the hair of Lany sitting next to her, “While I have been almost two months your husband, never heard you praise me.” Andra flicked Lany's forehead, making her grimace.
Yes, you are good too! Praise Lany in his heart . only he was ashamed to admit it, moreover he was once so rejected the existence of Andra. Despite being honest with each other about her feelings, Lany still has the prestige to directly praise her directly.
“We can not immediately say the person is good or not if you do not know more deeply, do not value from the view! It could be that what you think is good is bad and what you think is bad is good.so, don't judge a book by its cover!” once again andra flicked Lany's forehead, then moved.
“Aww..” strangled Lany, but he did not mind at all, because more curious about the words andra “What do you mean?”
“That is not easy to judge something from the outside! for example me, you once rated me bad when I was the best!” tease andra as she passes towards the room.
“His toBut bang, bang!” yelled Lany but soon followed Andra.
Lanypun told everything Rival said earlier without exception.
“Just don't whip around with him again yeah, neng!” Said Andra gently as she rubbed the cheek of Lany sitting beside her, "I'm her brother, and you're my wife. I can ban you from hanging out with other guys!"
Andra's words made Lany even more clueless, but she kept quiet hearing what her husband said.
“Actually the story can be two versions” Andra justifies his sitting position, put a pillow behind his back and then lean on the bed. “You want my version, don't you?"
Lany nodded, “I also want to know who the girl was!”
Andra smiled as she pulled Lany closer to her side. He will tell what Lany wants to know, both about Rival and about who Riana is. However, only Andra brought Lany into her embrace, a long ringtone delayed their event for a moment.
“I pick up the phone first.” After Lany agreed, Andra just went and picked up the phone.
“Assalamualaikum, Mi." Answer Andra
“Andra, you're home now! Mami wait at home, otherwise Mami will come there!" The voice across there made Andra sigh. Mami just called him for it and turned it off right away. Andra clearly knew what made Mami so angry, surely Riana had complained about the incident earlier this afternoon.
“Wait for me yes, Lan. I have to go home first!" Andra pulled Lany's nape and landed a kiss there, “I promise I'll take you there, once this is done!"
••••
Mami Inka, she has no power to hear Riri's complaint after dinner last night. Her son-in-law's candidate sobbed after complaining about Andra's actions, he brought a woman to the office.
“My heart hurts, Auntie! Andra can't help this as our marriage draws near.” Mami was powerless to see the sobbing Riri needed.
“I waited for three months, he had no news, never intended to find me first or even apologized for his behavior, but Andra even admitted this. He hurt me!" As soon as the complaint that Riri said earlier, only the two of them, in the special room belonging to Mami.
“Quiet yes, Ri. Aunty promised to make Andra regret her mistake and apologize to you!"
Mami Inka was grateful, Riana did not directly tell her parents about this problem. If not, maybe a big mess will occur between the parties. Mami was happy, Riri immediately complained this to her. Until after Riana came home, Mami directly contacted Andra. Ask him to come without a word of rebuttal.
Now Mami is waiting for the arrival of her eldest son who has changed a lot. Mami awaits the arrival of Andra on the terrace, accompanied by her personal assistant. As soon as Andra's car emerges from behind the fence. Mom immediately stepped closer.
“You must clear everything!"
Andra just squeaked, when Mami directly pulled him in. Andra who could not resist, could only follow the steps of Mami who took her to the living room, where Oma and Opa had gathered there. Papi himself is not home. He was on a business trip a few days abroad and will only be home tomorrow.
“We're going to Riri's house now, Alandra!" The affirmative baritone voice of Opa made Andra flinch.
“For what?"
“Why ask?" Mami's voice sounded high, making Andra close her mouth tightly.
“You must apologize, as well as discuss your wedding date that has been postponed for a long time because of your own actions.”
“Oke, we're there now!” Andra's steady words made everyone smile happily.
They also went to the Riana family residence which was right in front of the Andra family home. Yes, Andra and Riri are indeed neighbors. They have been friends since childhood and have loved each other for a long time. Even that friendship turned into love since they sat in High School. Make parents happy their children have united without having to make a match.
Once you arrive, your family is warmly welcomed by the Riana family who have been friends for decades. Riana's own face looks puffy, probably due to crying for too long.
The conversation took place with Andra who apologized for the incident last afternoon and admitted his guilt for three months disappeared. Yet one remark of Andra made everyone dumbfounded.
“Once again I'm sorry! But I really can't continue this marriage."
“Andra!!"
Everyone was not expecting the unilateral decision that Andra made. It made Riana shocked and cried so badly in the arms of her mother.
“You are evil, Andra! You're making me sick!"
“Sorry, Ri! But I really can't go on.”
“But why?”
“Tante disappointed with you!" Mama Riana said with a full face.
“Your relationship has been this long. Almost half the age, you spend together. Then now you suddenly messed it all up! One more step Andra, one more step you guys will really unite.!”
