Picking Up the Past

Testing Trust

Arya was tidying up her desk to get ready to go home, In between her busy work of cleaning up some documents and some A3 papers, her phone suddenly rang, indicating that there was a notification of incoming chat messages.

Arya immediately picks up her phone and she takes a deep breath while reading a chat message from Mila for herself.

‘Arya, later before I go home I drop groceries yes, there are some items I need’ Mila

‘kan you can shop in mini market across from’ Arya

‘I'm tired of having to go down again, if you don't want to, yes already, it's okay, I just go down briefly’ Mila.

‘just send what you want to buy, don't come out again, I'll go home’ Arya soon.

‘yeeeh, thank my husband’ Mila.

The last message was able to make Arya smile read it, but Arya's smile disappeared instantly when Mila sent some items she was about to buy, saw the list, Arya immediately scrunched her forehead, ‘astaga, when I buy goods like gini sih’ inward Arya. For a long time, he never bought anything like that.

‘tadi he has come to send supplies, time did not have time to shop’ Arya route again.

‘you sure ask me to buy these things Mil?’ Aryans

‘iya, you don't want ya?’ Mila, Arya took a rough breath because she felt the disappointment of Mila in the chat.

‘no, later I buy it, briefly I go home, wait ya’ Arya.

'thank you so much my husband’ Mila.

Arya then immediately got up to go home. Arya rides her duck bike slowly in the middle of the crowded street, The nearest road from Arbi's apartment to her office is through the adinata restaurant developed by Arnes.

When passing through the restaurant owned by Adinata, Arya saw a small mini market that looks quiet opposite the restaurant, he was immediately impeccable motor in the quiet mini market.

‘I'd better shop here’ Inner Arya, if she is shopping in the mini market in front of the apartment Arbi he borrowed, if he is shopping in front of her, it would be very embarrassed for him if he saw many people buying women's goods asked for Mila, the mini market there is always crowded because it is in a densely populated residential area.

Arya got off her bike and took off her helmet, He momentarily looked towards the Adinata resto that was right across the mini market that he stopped by, ‘I can't possibly remember wrongly, my house used to be here, why now it even turns into this luxury restaurant, or maybe I,, Arya's inner’ that stopped for a moment, he took a rough breath and then turned his body into a mini market, he immediately threw away the memory of his house so that the wound did not reappear.

A waiter approached Arya who looked confused to see the shelves of goods in the mini market. The servant immediately approached Arya to serve her.

"afternoon sir, can anyone help?” ask the waiter kindly.

“eeh, yes brother, can help me to choose these items?” ask Arya while showing Mila's message to the waiter.

The waiter then smiles at the contents of Mila's message to Arya, the contact of my beloved wife's name on Arya's phone makes the waiter think about something, Arya said, what's more the list of groceries are all items for women who are even very intimate. ‘hihihi, bucin is also the same guy as his wife, look aja cold, and, in fact bucin’ inner mini market waitress who saw flat face Arya with slightly long hair.

“no sir, I first get the goods” said the waiter while walking to choose the item on the list Mila in the chat.

Arya rubbed her face rough instantly, ‘Mil, you want to prank me yes, when I was told to buy kayak items like’ upset Arya while following the waiter choose the item in Mila's message. The face of the servant he saw was enough to describe the embarrassment he had at that time.

After finishing his shopping activities, Arya immediately went out to his duck bike, but his eyes were made to disbelieve because Arnes figure was already standing near his motorbike, Arnes face immediately opened the wound in his heart, the wounds made by Mila that made her heart so broken when the events on the porch of Mila's house.

“wah, the husband who was diligent apparently, to want to shop everything” said Arnes saw Arya's left hand carrying groceries and Arya's briefcase.

Arya took a deep breath and took it off violently, she had absolutely no interest in serving Arnes who was mocking her.

“waw, what is it?, you buy such things for Mila, you are stupid, you bought them, you bought them, but I enjoyed her body” said Arnes cynically who tried to provoke Arya's anger, in her heart she felt Mila still loved her, she still believes Mila is keeping the commitment they made so Arya doesn't touch Mila in the least.

Arya's breath was tight to withstand the turmoil of anger and jealousy that appeared in his heart, Arnes words seemed to lower his pride and also his wife's self-esteem.

“I know Mila won't want to be touched by you, her heart is only for me, I asked her not to be touched by you, and I know until now he still obeys it all” continued Arnes again which makes Arya's anger even more heightened.

Arya repeatedly took a deep breath, hoping that fresh air could calm her heart turmoil, but the hot air of Jakarta that afternoon even made her chest more tight to hold back the anger, he was eager to beat the man, avenge his pain, jealousy and also avenge the man's dirty words to his wife.

Arnes stares cynically at Arya, his fishing rod has not succeeded in making Arya angry, he wants the man to immediately get angry and hit him, then his bodyguard comes to hit Arya, he wants the man to hit him, avenging the pain in his heart because of Mila's bodyguard who once hit him.

“even if you tell people to take care of your wife, still I can still contact her and enjoy my time with her, I hope you will not be disappointed if you find she is not a virgin anymore, or maybe find out she will later become pregnant with my son” said Arnes who increasingly wanted to provoke Arya emotions, Arya's hands then clenched without her knowing following the turmoil in her heart, anger, revenge, revenge, and jealousy clad in his heart.

Seeing that Arnes felt in the wind, he managed to provoke Aryan's heartache and anger, and also Aryan jealousy, Arnes then told how his affection with Mila, who was his friend, he even told her what kind of body Mila had seen to Arya, telling her how she enjoyed the body of Aryan's wife.

Arya swallowed her saliva heard it all, all the images of Arnes against Mila's body there is no one right, He already memorized what every inch of his wife's body that is always closed, it's like, whether the body of the woman that Arnes told him, whether the woman enjoyed the man then told him as if the man had felt the body of his wife.

But the story of Arnes' romance with Mila even aroused a surge of jealousy in his heart. Whether true or not, Arya did not want to think about it. But the jealousy still appeared in his heart.

'that's Mila's past, I can't judge her, Mila's changed, she's chosen me' Arya's inner self trying to withstand the turmoil in her chest.

“what are you done babbling him, move aside, I have to go home” said Arya flatly trying to hold back the anger and jealousy that felt passionate in her heart.

Arnes then laughs cynically and shifts from the Arya motor. “tell your wife, I want to spend time with her tomorrow” Arnes said with a smile mocking Arya, his heart also felt hot because Arya's attitude only flatly accepted his words that sought to provoke Arya.

While Arya is also aware, she should not make a fuss with Arnes, if that happens, it could be that she ruined what her friends planned, ruining her plan to return to the Adinata group. No matter what happens he should not get into conflict with the Adinata group people to keep his identity hidden until the time comes.

“I think I should thank your wife who wants to get that pleasure from me not her own husband” said Arnes again who smiled cynically at Arya.

Arya just shut up and immediately turn on the bike, he must immediately go relieve the turmoil of anger and jealousy in his heart, Arnes finally ignited emotions first because Arya who ignored him, Arnes, his respect as the son of CEO Adinata felt humbled, he then hit Arya's back hard until Arya fell with his duck bike.
