Neighbor Husband

Episode 33 - Ina and Dede

"We need to talk. You're the one who chose the time and place."

"Haiissshh!" Ina throws her phone into the bed, after reading a short message from her husband.

"What did you say to him? At least at the end of asking for divorce again," wrote Ina upset.

Although Ina realized, what he did was really a big mistake, but he still did not want to lower his ego.

Her little heart felt guilty for the man she had married almost a year ago. But on the other hand, he also does not want to let go of Dede that he got because of the results of betting with his friends.

Yes, Ina did not really like Dede when they knew each other in High School first. All Ina does to get Dede close to her is a challenge from her gangmates and a guy who's been dating Ina since Junior High.

"Udah wants a seventeenth birthday. You still haven't had a girlfriend change? He said you're pretty?" sindir Rindi, Ina's gangmate.

"I'm beautiful. So, should I change my girlfriend? But I still love him" Ina replied.

"Yes dong. What is the proof that you are beautiful, if you only have one boyfriend? For teenagers like us, dating is a process of knowing each other. Not for the serious that will be brought until marriage, "reply Vera anyway.

Vera is a beautiful girl who is able to rival the beauty of Ina. His skin is yellow, narrow eyes, long wavy hair, and lashes are pliable, making the bloody girl Surabaya - Bali became an icon of Bella Pahlawan Junior High School.

Rindi also cannot be ruled out. Minang women who have a slightly fat body, bright white skin, black hair is somewhat curly, has its own charm in the eyes of men.

But unlike Ina, they have changed girlfriends several times since sitting in the third grade of Junior High. Their association was more free, compared to Ina who was always under the supervision of her father. In fact, Ina is dating this time without her parents' knowledge.

"Gini, man. We give it three days, then choose the guy you think most interesting in this High School, then you have to get it before your birthday arrives" said Rindi.

"Well, maybe even. You should be able to take her to your seventeenth birthday party" Vera said.

Ina who was still a coward and quite innocent, thought for a moment to hear the proposal of her friends.

"But what if my boyfriend gets angry?" ina was worried.

"Okay. fight the same boyfriend is ordinary. If you have a new boyfriend, you can distinguish what it's like to date different people" says Vera.

"I guarantee you, deh. You must be tired of only dating one person forever," said Rindi.

"But just dated for a while, right? Not for forever?" ask Ina.

"Yes that's up to you, want to change another guy again is also up. His name also changed his taste. Importantly, we keep our own sanctity" explains Vera and Rindi.

"Why do I remember High School, huh?" Ina gumam.

Dddrrr.... Ina's phone is back on vibrate.

"If you don't want to get a divorce warrant from the court, quickly find time to meet" Dede said.

"alright. We will meet at the rainbow cafe on Ratulangi street, twelve o'clock, tomorrow afternoon" Ina replied later.

"He wasn't getting a divorce, so what?" ina thinks.

For some reason, she had become impatient to meet her husband, since their last meeting eight days ago.

Although Ina threatened Dede a lot, in fact he himself did not say what oun to his father and mother. Both of Ina's parents loved Dede very much as a daughter-in-law. Because of this, they secretly helped Dede get a steady job, shortly after Dede and their daughter got married. The news of this divorce, they will definitely make his parents shocked if they hear it.

Ina had prepared two reliable lawyers, if at any time Dede attacked him in court. However, the threat after threat posed by Ina is only a fabrication of himself.

He also went away from the rented house, not back to his hometown, but to the next town, where he studied before marriage first.

*****

The next day, it turns out Ina came first compared to Dede. She had waited about ten minutes from the appointment, but her husband had not come yet.

"Am I the most impatient to meet her, huh?" whisky Ina. His stomach is full. The ice boba taro he ordered earlier, now only the glass remains.

"Sorry late. I have to finish the files in the office first" Dede said. It seemed like he had just run in the heat.

"Yes. Why are you asking me to meet again?" ksta Ina pretended to be ketus.

"There are a few things, which I want to ask you directly," Dede replied after she ordered a drink. His throat was very dry after running from the parking lot that was hit by the sun.

"Hmmm..." Ina clenched both her hands. He wasn't ready to hear questions from Dede.

"Ina, what exactly did I do? Why did you do something like this to me?" ask Dede to his wife.

The look on his face did not depict anger at all, all it looked like was a sad look.

"I don't know what to answer" Ina said softly, barely audible.

"Just tell me the truth, I want to hear everything, even if it's bitter. Is it all because of Luke? Are you jealous of him?" said Dede.

"I'm not ready to explain" Ina replied. She could not see her husband's face. He really feels dirty.

"Look at this, we have lunch first, after that we just talk," said Dede relented.

"I think, until any time I will not be ready" whispered Ina.

Argghh... Dede was frustrated to hear that. All the persuasions that were thrown, did not change Ina's stance.

"Whatever it is, it may be possible to back down my decision to bring my charges to justice" Dede said. His voice that was soft, now began to rise.

"Who started it first?" ask Dede later.

"meaning?" Ina doesn't understand.

"Who asked for an affair first. You, or that bastard guy?" ask Dede again.

Ina was silent for quite a while. His lips twitched, it was hard to answer that question.

"Ina, say. I'm not gonna kill you whatever your answer is" Dede persuaded.

"I'm the one who invited him" whispered Ina. Her tears were unstoppable again.

Dede did not reply to his wife's words. His heart was broken hearing that answer. But the anger that he had been saving for a few weeks just could not get out. All he felt was really sad.

"Why Ina? Was it because of me and Luke's problems?" ask Dede after a while.

"Yes, but that's just a small part of it." Ina dared to be honest. It seemed, he was truly unwilling to let go of this man.

"Then the rest?" whiskey Dede.

"I.. and Teguh, have been dating, since we haven't known each other," Ina said with trembling lips. He was completely resigned to Dede's reaction when he heard it.

"Dating?" You mean, I'm the third person in the middle of your relationship?" dede didn't understand.

Ina shakes. "I really wanted to have you then. Then I threw away everything that was interfering in my path to get you, including my boyfriend back then," Ina said honestly.

Dede was really shocked to hear that. Isn't she Ina's first boyfriend?

"That's right, you've known Luke since High School?" said Dede.

Ina nodded back. "I really didn't know him, until I moved here. But then I knew a lot about him from Shilla."

"Sheila? Buchari Shilla? The snake woman who cornered her best friend's girlfriend several times?" said Dede did not think.

"Isn't her boyfriend the one Luke took?" ask Ina.

Dede just shook his head. His wife had been completely wrong in choosing a friend.

"So, after all these twelve years, you're going back to your first girlfriend? And forget me just like that? You forget, how did you chase me, even invite me to your birthday party?" tanya Dede was fierce.
