Not the Riding Prince

Misunderstanding

The night is getting late. He didn't even give me a good message or phone. I could not understand what was happening to my heart. To be sure, I was hurt in being ignored by him.

I can't do anything to heal my own heart. Wanting to try asking the news, I was afraid that it would only bother him.

He was being cool with another woman. Then what do I mean to her, why do I expect her to call me when she's with the others.

Life feels so unfair. God gives what he thinks is good.

I am here in a house worthy of being called a palace. Even in such a sad state, this happened not without reason, although I don't know what reason I'm here.

Chabby. That's how I feel right now. I decided to go upstairs. Invite Aunt and two bodyguards to come along. I was still afraid of dreams last night.

"Auntie, can I borrow the phone?"

"By, Madam. What's for?"

"I borrowed it for a second, yeah."

"Please."

"thank you. Oh, ja. Auntie don't go anywhere, wait here. Ok?"

"We're not going anywhere without your permission, ma'am."

I feel calm. Open the dome and go upstairs. Maybe it looks so weird and childish. There's no other way.

[President, Madam is still in the room.]

[Why]

[He doesn't eat at all]

[Leave it, just make sure there's a bodyguard guard guarding it]

[I was afraid something would happen to him]

[Let it. I have a lot of business]

Bemoan. He doesn't even care about my current condition.

"God! why do I still wish for more when she's with another woman? come on Kinanti, sadaaar!"

I could only stare at the phone screen, hoping he would send a message and ask me. Niente.

The night is getting late. There's no way I'm asking those downstairs to wait until midnight even though they'll do it. Either way, they need a break.

I'm going downstairs. Back to cover the glass dome. Give Aunt a cell phone and go to the room. I went to bed and covered my whole body with a blanket.

The eyes that were tired from yesterday constantly crying, finally closed.

My consciousness slowly returned. I raised my head slightly and looked left and right, my prone body wanted me to lift until I felt something was heavy. I'm turning. It turned out that Jun slept on my back. What am I supposed to do?

Quiescent. That's the choice I made. I won't wake him. Why is his head so heavy?

After an hour, he finally built. Wiggling, then gradually moving to my side. He fell back asleep, back to me.

I wake up and go to the bathroom. Clean yourself under warm water.

I came out with a towel on my body and a coil on my head to dry my hair.

He was sitting on the edge of the bed. I who was a little surprised pretended to be calm and ignored him.

"Did you eat no more last night?" tanyakanya. I'm silent.

"Why do you do this so often? I don't like you torturing that body."

I don't care what he says. I dry my hair in front of the mirror.

"Answer. I don't like being ignored like this."

"No one likes to be ignored. Whoever it is."

After my hair was almost dry, I walked towards the closet. Usually I change clothes in the bathroom, somehow this time I want to wear it here - in front of Jun.

Although a little scared, I did. Apparently there was no reaction. He just kept looking at me in wonder. Yes, he must have been surprised to see my behavior.

"I'm permission to go, President."

"Where are you going?"

"People say, going shopping will improve a woman's mood. I want to try it."

"Who are you going with, even they go with their friends. While you? one friend doesn't have one, does he?"

"A lot of people here are friends to me."

He's walking towards the nightstand. Take my wallet and give me a card.

"It's a credit and debit card, take it. Put on our wedding date pin, I changed it yesterday."

"No need, I have my own card."

"What?"

"The card that Evan gave me is still well preserved, I'll use that alone."

Hearing my words, he was furious. He threw his wallet and everything in his hand. With glaring eyes, he took a quick step full of stomps towards me.

"Where's the card?"

I was silent with a gulp. I was afraid to see her face look so angry. He turned his eyes to the small bag that hooked on my shoulder. He took it rough, after he got the card he was looking for he broke it.

"Don't dare to use money from others. Remember that!"

"Why? do you feel your pride is offended?"

"I'm more than capable of giving you all your needs."

"No. You can't do it."

"How dare you–"

"Man doesn't just need the material, President." I brushed off his two hands that clutched my shoulders firmly.

I, who had no intention of going anywhere, returned to bed. Covering the whole body with a blanket.

Her footsteps were heard moving away, towards the bathroom. He ignored me, again.

I closed my eyes. Thinking of going back to sleep, in order to forget everything.

"Kinan," she said as she opened the blanket. He sat next to me.

"What's wrong? did I make a mistake? are you angry?"

I'm silent. These real people don't know what just plain pretending is?

"Don't do this. Speak up if you're angry, tell me what I did wrong. I don't know what I've done."

I just kept staring at him and came back with tears. He came closer and wiped away the tears that fell from the corner of my eye.

"We shouldn't have married. That's a mistake we made. I should have chosen you to kill my parents only, maybe that's much better."

I turned my body. Avoided himself. This marriage really depressed me. I still love Evan, but somehow I always feel pain when he ignores me. Added the woman.

"Kinan, do you want to go for a walk? how about we go to the beach?"

I'm silent.

"Do you want to travel abroad? I'll take you around the world."

"President, why would you want to do that?"

"Yeah because I want to make you happy."

"Why?"

"Because you're my wife."

Is it really just that? why am I disappointed.

"But I feel like I'm just a display. I don't feel you're treating me as a wife. Do you know what a husband and wife relationship is?"

"Kinan, what you mean is ..."

"No. I don't mean intimate relationships, but feelings. Oh, I don't mean is–"

"Do you want to hear about how I feel about you? that so?"

"No." I sat and faced him. "I don't need to know how you feel about me, it's too much. I know enough to not ask for more. I just want you not to ignore me, that's all."

Jun scrunched his forehead. God, does he really not understand what I mean?

"If you want to make a woman happy, you don't have to take me around the world. I can be happy with just something simple."

"Say, what is it."

"Don't ignore me. You don't even care about my situation last night. In fact, I had to borrow Aunt's phone to–"

"Why did you borrow someone else's phone, while you didn't check it at all."

"Make what? my phone is not useful enough. He can only be used for Selfi."

He's a slanted smile. Stand up and go get dressed. I just kept watching him dance.

"I'm gone." he pulled my head, then kissed my forehead.

I went back to silence. Every day is like this once. It feels so bored. Wake up and stay in the room. Waiting for the waiter to bring you a meal.

"Dull. My life was really spent in this room."

I remember what he said. I immediately grabbed my phone and opened it. There's some incoming messages from "My President."

I opened the messages one by one.

[What med? are you all right?]

[Why not reply? I'm so busy at the office, I'm going home tonight. Wait, yeah.]

[Kinan, are you sleeping? Auntie said you don't want to eat, why else?]

[Please pick up my phone, or reply to this message]

[As soon as the business is here, I'll go home and cook for you. We eat together.]

[If I have anything wrong, I'm sorry Kinan. Don't torture yourself.]

I looked up at the message he sent. Messages that he sends over a considerable time from one message to another.

did I misunderstand him? owhh, you suck, Kinanti!!!

"I'd better call to apologize."

I waited long enough for him to pick up the phone from me.

"Hello, Kinan. What's up?"

"No, I just wanted to ask you something."

"What's wrong? have you read my message?"

"Yes, just now. President, have you had breakfast?"

"Yes, of course. I have to take care of my health in order to keep my company and my family."

"Ahh, so ...."

"Include yourself."

"Eh?"

"Kinan, prepare. There will be a party at the office. I've sent you a dress to wear. Anda is beautiful."

"Aren't I pretty all this time?"

"Haha. All right, I gotta call somebody, see you at the office."

I was still staring at the phone screen with bulging cheeks.

"In retrospect, I've never taken a photo with him. If there is, I can make it wallpaper on my phone."

Not long after that, Auntie came in with my assistant. They carried a large box with a white ribbon on it. It must be the dress Jun sent.

"Are we getting ready from now on? it's still morning."

"It's ten o'clock, madam. The show will start at twelve. We need to get ready soon."

"Well, what are we going to do now?"

"We'll do the Feeling, take care of the nails, then the hair, then we'll dress your face and clothes."

"All right, just do it. Make me the prettiest woman of the day."

"Good, the lady."

When I finished, I immediately went down to the car that Jun had prepared. At first I was hesitant, because this car was the first time I saw it. In the garage there are only five cars that are always in the use of Jun alternately, according to his wishes.

"Please, Madam."

"Whose car is this? I just saw it. Is this really the car that the kid took me to the party?"

"Yes, this is the car you just bought on your behalf." Aunt tried to explain.

"On my name? when did he buy this?"

"One Week ago, Madam."

"Owh, okay. I'll call him first."

I picked up the phone, then called Jun to make sure of it myself. I don't know, ever since that nightmare, I've been paranoid.

"President, is this really the car that's gonna take me to the party?"

"Yes, why? no like? then I'll replace it with another car."

"No. I just want to make sure of it."

"alright. Come here soon, the show will begin."

"Okay, President."

Arriving at the office, I was escorted by several people towards the main hall. Why throw a party at the office? why not in the building or at the hotel?

As soon as I got to the main door, I was greeted by Jun. He stretched out his hand, then I clasped.

We walked on a red carpet. All eyes are on us. They were seen whispering with friendly faces.

"I was wrong to ask you to dress up pretty. Others enjoy it, too" Jun whispered.

"Do I have to remove my makeup, President?"

"Don't, it'll make you look prettier."

I'm staring. My face feels warm. It may look like a ripe tomato.

"I'm going to introduce someone to you. She's the queen of this show."

"Who?"

"That." Jun pointed at someone. She was the woman he had embraced yesterday.

"He's Yesi, my sister."

"What?"

"Hi, sister." The girl kissed me on the cheek. "Other times, when jealous don't go."

"What's? she's jealous of you?" ask Jun.

"Yes, that's why he left yesterday."

"really?" jun asked full investigation at me. I just blushed.

"Surprisingly, we've never met before, right? I'm sorry, when I get married I can't attend."

"You never told me you had a sister."

"But I can tell you're jealous" Jun said. I pinched his waist.

"Then, what is this show?"

"I'm getting engaged, brother. I deliberately chose this hall, because this hall was built specifically for me. Our mother built it."

"Oh, that's how it looks."

"I'm so jealous of Brother."

"Why?"

"Sister is very pretty, and so the center of attention here."

"It wasn't my beauty that made them see me earlier. But because I was their subordinate first."

"You mean they're mocking? ahhh, if it's like that, I'll beat them."

"Calm down" I chuckled. "The president has given them a warning." I rubbed Yesi's emotion-looking arm. Jun and Yesi, they don't want me to be insulted by anyone. I'm moved.

The family man came. Event after event has passed. I just met him for the first time, but I feel very close. Maybe because of the friendly attitude he gave me.

"Are you hungry?" ask Jun. His hands never left my waist. I don't know what he wants to show people. I feel a little awkward.

"Come, we'll eat."

"All right."

"Leader Kim Joon." Someone came up to us on the way to the diner.

"Hello Mr. Alex. How are you?"

"I'm good. How about yourself? sorry, I couldn't come to your wedding at that time. Is she your wife?" he asked while glancing at me. I smiled slightly lowered my head in greeting. Jun didn't allow me to shake hands with anyone either, whether it was a woman or a man.

"True, this is my wife. Winsticks."

"Concidentally," he turned to his bodyguards and assistants, it seemed. "Here, I brought you a present for your wife."

"Thank you, Mr. Alex." Jun took it and gave it to our bodyguards.

"First off, I still have to talk to him" Jun whispered.

"alright. I finally decided to eat alone. I also asked that the bodyguard not follow me. I want to be alone and not look flashy.

There is a lot of food here. Like a wedding party. International food from several countries, and also Nusantara food from various regions are here. Complete.

I decided to take a snack. After the party, I'll have Jun cook for me. Hiss

"Hi, long time no see."

That sound?
