What do you think about life after marriage? Both good and bad, I enjoyed my new role as a wife. It feels like after our long journey, this is the new beginning of everything. It's the right Dimitri I have, and I don't have to be afraid of sin anymore because we've done things we shouldn't. You know what I mean, right?

I have also officially resigned from my job as Manager, at Dimitri's request as well as my own initiative. I've been working hard all this time, it's like a reward for my hard work all along. And, I was pursuing a new hobby that I also just discovered. Stringing flowers.

It's a little weird, I know. Suddenly I was interested in flowers, especially the backyard of our house which was planted with various kinds of flowers. This is the house built by Dimitri himself, I do not know how he could think of planting a backyard with a variety of flowers.

“Why are you thinking of planting flowers here?” my many.

It was the first time we moved into this house. The first thing Dimitri showed me was this flower garden.

“Maybe because I know I will have a wife as beautiful as you, so this backyard should be equivalent to you beautiful,” he replied. He hugged me from behind and rested his chin on my shoulder.

I just laughed when I heard the answer. This Dimitri has always been very fond of flirting with women, and I should be proud to be the only woman who was seduced by him.

After pursuing my new hobby for six months, I began to have the initiative to open a flower shop. There's no harm, right?

I can work from home and still carry out my role as a wife. Dimitri did not mind, he was even very supportive, morally and financially. Being the wife of a Director is fun, but also troublesome.

Okay, before we talk about my flower shop, I want to tell you a little bit about what changes happened in our lives after we got married.

First, Dimitri became increasingly possessive. You already know, right, how possessive is he when we are still friends? This time his possessiveness increased as our status changed. We attended a dinner invitation from one of Dimitri's colleagues, and he asked me to wear a covered shirt, especially on my back, thighs, chest, and even arms. The shirt should be covered.

I'll understand that, and even if I'm wearing a dress that covers my entire body, she'll hug my waist possessively. He really didn't let me go unless I was going to use the toilet. What do you think?

Second, he will hire a housekeeper to care for and clean the entire house. Then what good is it for me as a wife who has resigned from her job?

“I don't want you to be tired. Just relax at home and wait for me to come home.”

That's what Dimitri said when I asked him why. He's overrated. I was also originally an independent woman who would be very careless when she did not have any job, then now had to stay at home. Imagine how crazy I would be when I actually did that?

But in the end, I still won the debate. It seems that only that has changed, the rest of us still do everything as usual. If you ask how romantic we are, I will answer, Dimitri will only be romantic when he wants something. Dimitri remains just like any other man, and is still a workaholic as well.

Lately he'd rather go home later than usual and leave me alone in the room, and then he'd shut himself up in his study. I don't know what makes it that way.

“Pak Dimitri his meeting again, Ma'am,” secretary Dimitri said as I visited my husband's office to deliver lunch boxes.

I often do little things like this after trying a new recipe. Besides flowers, I was also actively learning to cook, and if the results were good enough, I would deliver it to Dimitri's office. This afternoon I tried the chicken rica-rica recipe, and it tasted pretty good, so I decided to come over.

“I can wait inside, right? Please tell Mr. Dimitri that I am waiting, yes?” I said to the woman in front of me.

Her name is Vika, we're the same age. And I was quite unsettled when I found out Dimitri's secretary was a young single woman who was also my age. Now the actor can be found anywhere, I don't want to think bad, but it could be, is this woman trying to seduce Dimitri even though she knows I'm his wife?

Vika smiled and nodded her head. I immediately walked into my husband's room. Even after six months have passed, it still feels a little strange to call Dimitri ‘suami’. My tongue is not very familiar with the title of ownership.

I've been to Dimitri's office quite often, so I've been khatam with all the furniture in this room. So I just sat on the couch, waiting for Dimitri to finish his meeting. But, ten minutes later I was sitting on the sofa, the door of the room was already open and Dimitri appeared with a woman. Do not ask her if she is beautiful, for she is indeed beautiful, and they enter the room with a familiar laugh. Who is this woman?

As soon as I saw him, Dimitri immediately smiled, but there was still something different about this man.

“Ah, Evelyn, know this my wife,” he said. No hugs as usual. Is this how he introduces his wife to another woman?

I was forced to show my smile and shake the woman's hand in front of me. I guess she's a little older than me, or my age. She is simply beautiful and her appearance strongly reflects a career woman who is already very successful. That's all I can say, I can't possibly praise another woman that my own husband introduced.

“Dimitri tells a lot about you, and it turns out you are as beautiful as she tells you,” Evelyn said. Whether it was a fake or sincere smile on her face, I just gave her a faint smile.

“I guess I have to continue meeting outside again while eating lunch, you want to wait here or come with us?” ask Dimitri.

This Dimitri, is he really my husband? Or maybe he just got possessed by another creature. No call ‘sayang’ and very indifferent even though he smiled at me. Didn't he see the lunch box I was carrying? I can't possibly say anything strange in front of this elegant woman, right?

“Or we together?” Evelyn.

Just be right! I might end up grabbing this elegant (sook) woman.

“I have an appointment with Nabila, you guys first aja.” I looked at Dimitri who a few minutes ago had just become a foreign man. His expression was not even legible, whether that smile was aimed at whom.

“I'm leaving, huh?” Dimitri kissed my forehead and passed with the woman.

Did I just get a job? But it's not my birthday, and as far as I'm concerned today is not a special day either. If Dimitri was going to prepare a surprise by behaving like that, then I could understand. The thing is, there's no special celebration today. May Dimitri start cheating behind my back?

I stared at the lunch box I had placed on the table. My cooking was in vain today. My husband prefers the adult women. I just left that lunch box, I don't care if it gets stale. Because my husband doesn't care about my hard work today either.

**

It's eleven o'clock in the evening, and there's no sign of Dimitri coming home yet. Very unusual. Eight o'clock in the evening was the longest Dimitri spent in the office.

If he is cheating, then his attitude lately is indeed very reasonable. This is the first time Dimitri has ignored me after we became husband and wife.

Naturally, right, if I think badly? Because my husband didn't explain anything either. Ah, I even forgot to tell you about my efforts to create a flower shop. I'll tell you next time, right now I really don't have the mood to think about anything other than prejudicing my own husband.

Soon enough, the car's engine was heard, it was Dimitri's. I checked my phone. At 23:15.

I closed my eyes. I wonder what he'll do when I sleep like this. Tonight was completely silent because I could hear Dimitri's footsteps climbing the stairs, then entering the room. There was quite a loud rustling sound before the side of the empty bed next to me creaked.

Dimitri immediately hugged me from behind. This guy didn't even clean himself before he got into bed.

“Sorry to me,” he said softly.

I can smell the sweet perfume behind me. Sorry for what? And this smell is definitely not Dimitri's perfume. Dimitri never used perfume, his body odor was very distinctive even without the help of perfume.

Just for a moment Dimitri's embrace felt cold, because after he got up from the bed. I didn't know where he was going, I just heard the sound of the door opening and closing again. I don't want to be a melancholy woman, but these tears are flowing on their own after Dimitri's departure.

So, what is this? The household exam? Think of it like that, even weddings do not always run smoothly.

**

“Ayam rica-rica that you brought yesterday tastes good,” said Dimitri.

Even our breakfast was cold at the moment. Well, maybe if Dimitri was having an affair behind my back, I'd file a divorce. It's not that I take marriage lightly, but I can't survive this treacherous relationship.

“Oh, did you eat that? I thought you threw it away,” I said sarcasm.

Dimitri looked surprised at my reply. Maybe this is the first time I've said such a cold thing. He didn't explain anything to me either, it's only natural that I'm like this.

“Sayang..,”

“Now I'm ‘sayang’ again? Yesterday in front of Evelyn I was not ‘sayang’.”

Let me show you how far I can go.

“Evelyn only client, why do you overdo it like gini?” the question is a little unacceptable.

So he can be possessive of me at will, but I who only ask about women the other day is considered excessive? Who is overreacting here?

I choose to keep quiet, if I continue I will explode. I'm like a suspect here, but I'm the victim. Ah, from a long time ago I was just the victim who looked like the most guilty. So, this is gonna happen again?

It's not wrong if I ask about Evelyn, is it? I'm his wife now, and just wanted to know before this became a big deal. I'll finish with a cool head if Dimitri can work together too. Household is about communication and trust, but what is she doing now?

I'm getting more and more convinced that there's something about Evelyn.
