PASSION OF MY FRIEND'S WIFE

Arka Feeling Very Fucked

Gerald occasionally turned his head towards Arka who was sitting beside him. That guy looks fucked up. How not, he had just begged his wife who was trying to betray him. Luckily Arka believed him. Though he had been very panicked earlier, he was worried that Arka would misunderstand.

"Ka-" Gerald was about to start the conversation, but was soon stopped by Arka using his hand as a stop sign.

"Don't talk about that first, Rald. I don't want to hear it" the man asked without looking at Gerald.

Gerald nodded in understanding. "Good, Ka."

Gerald knows how heartbroken Arka is right now. He was in that man's position. Betrayed his partner and he knows how much it hurts. Moreover, Arka was betrayed by a couple who were married to him.

He let Arka not invite the man to talk first. He focused on driving and looked out the road to the construction site.

The first day of construction went well. Luckily Gerald did not come late to the location, because Mr. Herlain also came.

At five o'clock in the afternoon Gerald arrived at the contract. Arka went with him because he knew Arka couldn't go home today. In addition, he was also worried that later there would be a debate that could have created a bad event. He didn't want that until it happened.

Arka sitting living room chair. The man was silent again, his gaze blank. Gerald salutes Arka as well, the man is able to adjust to where work is and where personal problems are. At the construction site earlier, the man looked fine like a person who had no problems. But outside of work, he returns to his personal problems.

"Ka, you haven't eaten since morning. I order you to eat, yes," Gerald bargained.

"I'm not hungry, Rald. Thank you," refused the man.

"It's not about being hungry or not, Ka. Your stomach has to stay here. If you don't eat, your health will be compromised. Remember, we have to take care of that big project until it's done."

Arka budging. The man was silent and did not respond. Gerald was so confused, what he had to do so that Arka could forget his problems even for a moment.

"Ah yes, Ka. What did Sir Herlain say to Kunal?" Gerald tries to grab Arka's attention so that the man forgets about his personal problems.

"Speak what?" Arka asked back.

"I don't know, so I'm asking you. I thought you knew. I saw Mr. Herlain approaching Kunal, they seemed to be talking something. What are they talking about, huh?"

"What if you just call Kunal? Ask him directly what Sir Herlain told him."

"For what? Let it go, it's her problem with Mr. Herlain. We don't need to find out. Besides, it's not far with the development problem."

Gerald sighed. Intention he wants to make Arka forget his personal problems failed.

"Ka ." called Gerald later, softly but sounding very serious.

"Hm" replied the man.

"I'm sorry, yeah."

"For?"

"Because I live in your house, your household is falling apart." Gerald felt guilty about it.

"It's not your fault, I've heard your conversation."

"So, do you really believe me?"

Arka turned her head and looked at Gerald for a second. Before that, his eyes went back empty.

"I want to talk to you honestly, Ka. I don't want anything else to hide from you."

Suddenly Arka turned back. He looked at Gerald with a million questions and a high curiosity. What Gerald wanted to tell him.

"What?" Arka could not wait to hear what honesty from Gerald.
