Satuku Hand Husband

I'm Not a Good Man

[[You are my wife...  ]]

Amadea gawked with the remains of tears on her cheeks. Didn't he just misheard.

He saw the beautiful eyes of the man in front of him. Mandala Barata said what just now?

My wife's...

My wife's...

My wife's...

The words rang in Amadea Kasea's head for a few seconds.

Amadea begins to realize that all this is just a marriage charade, until the words Mandala next make it start to realize back to the real world.

"Watch it during this contract marriage, you separate yourself from your mother and her toxic behavior. You deserve to be happy."

Mandala called the word 'contract marriage.' The sweet shadow on the head of the Dea begins to fall off one by one like a dry leaf in an arid autumn.

Yes, his heart that had flowered like a beautiful garden that fragrant suddenly became arid dry kerontang.

"Don't dream, Dea! The wife he mentioned meant wife in public status only. In his heart you are nobody. You're just an ordinary girl he pays on an equally lucrative basis." Amadea shouted to herself in her heart.

When Amadea retraced the earth again from her beautiful delusion, Mandala's right hand just moved wildly down her messy hair because of crying with excitement earlier. Once again he put the boy behind his ear. Amadea Kasea hot cold again.

Oh, again? How could he not hope for more. Mandala's treatment makes her confused this is real or pretend.

"You're a precious young girl. Have value, have potential. Think of this marriage as your opportunity to run for happiness for yourself.

I see your grades and academic ability are quite high. If you want, I will charge you S2 until graduation to fill the time because I forbid you to work.

I am a regular donor of Brama University. I have shares there. It's the most prestigious business campus in the capital. Locations near. I'll hook you up with professor Nadif later."

The words of Mandala made Dea stare in disbelief.

Wh-what? Continuing college to Strata 2 was his dream but was stymied by expenses due to his mother's money. And Mandala paved the way for it all.

"S-seriously, Sir? Y-you mean. Mas serious? I'll be financed S2?" Amadea felt that her tears had suddenly dried on their own.

Mandala Batara nodded then smiled faintly.

"Yes, than you get bored at home. Not even a thing either. Yes, later there will be social activities in my charitable foundation or you must appear at certain events to accompany me.

But your free time is plenty. That's just an option anyway. If you don't want to, papa. For example, you are interested in managing a business or something, say so. I will be modali. The origin of the business is serious and prestigious.

Mandala Barata's wife has to be classy. You will be highlighted. Yes, although I do not mind the fact that you appear in public as a wife who likes to travel abroad, shopping, fun. My wife should be happy. Do whatever you want."

Well, it's grounded uh instead he's clearly calling 'My wife' again.

Amadea who was too surprised by Mandala's offer was increasingly out of his feelings. Suddenly the pain of his mother's lie about Om Alik just vanished.

Mandala smiled wryly but she was impervious to seeing Amadea reacting comically.

"It's not sad anymore, is it? Wedding day is soon. That's right said your neighbor's aunt. Rather than you go to your mother and get angry, it is better to focus on our marriage in a few days.

Don't waste energy. Want you to come to the house again and drive your stepfather away again, anyway if your mother is still in love, she will find another way they can be together.

I don't want to interfere in your family affairs, Dea. As long as they don't annoy you, it's okay. Take your time. Focus on yourself. Just keep your distance to minimize your heartache." Mandala said so softly.

Amadea felt like a dream.

Amadea nodded and then looked down.

Come to think of it, only Mandala continued to talk at length to calm him. Amadea simply replied with a nod. He felt he needed to respond. Until finally that came out of his mouth even the sentence vent again.

"I hope Om Alik can change, admit his lies, then take responsibility for all his behavior and get out of my mother's life. But it seems impossible.

Yes or if not, I want my mother to realize that the man she loves unreasonably and make her crazy is a fraud and then she herself is the one who shows Om Alik."

Mandala laughs.

Amadea was confused why her sad speech was responded to with laughter by Mandala.

"K-why, Mas?" Amadea couldn't bear to not ask.

"No papa, Dea. You might not understand. Love is crazy, Dea. It's hard to advise people to fall in love, like your mother. Like I used to be, too.

I used to go crazy loving Meirika, right?Which now in hindsight the boy lied a lot but I just realized.

After the break up I asked you to check all my cards that he was holding. Sorry at that time you I told the hospital between reports that until your feet blisters because of running around wearing high heels." Mandala paused her sentence while grinning considering how fierce she was a few weeks ago to Amadea.

Amadea just looked down. Yes, his legs got scuffed because Mandala yelled at him over the phone to come quickly.

"You saw the report, right? I asked for details. It doesn't matter how much money he spends. I'm not a problem. My money is a lot. What is this money he spent on.

I saw her bill in a fancy boutique and she bought men's stuff. Expensive watches, bags, shoes. And those things aren't for me. I don't know who it was for.

He also paid for the hotel with my card while claiming to be out of town. Then on the same date he also paid for a hotel room here on behalf of a man. I don't know who that is.

Maybe he wasn't cheating. Maybe just playing around because in the celebrity environment such things are considered commonplace, right? But I used to be blind and close my eyes, right?

Yeah, that's Dea's love. You can be stupid, blind, deaf, and stupid. Eat it, don't fall in love. Including my love. I'm not a good man..."

Mandala's face was so serious in her last long sentence.

Amadea swallowed her saliva with great difficulty.

He knew the term love was blind only in the previous proverb. But the case of his mother who blind love for Om Alik and Mandala's confession just now about his love for Meirika used to make Amadea silent.

Yes, blind love is not just a proverbial term. It´s real.

But Dea was astonished at the reason why Mandala told her to be careful and not fall in love with him. Amadea thought the man was going to say that Amadea should know himself because they weren't on the same level. But the man said in a serious way that he was not a good man to love.

Wh why?

Amadea stared with wondering eyes.

"Why? It's a good man. Y-yes might seem rude and fierce. But Mas Mandala has a good heart..."

I don't know why Amadea's lips stammered that sentence.

Mandala smiled in a knot and then looked down for a moment before she finally lifted her head again and looked into Amadea's eyes deeply.

"I'm not a nice guy, Dea..."
