Surviving in Marriage

MEETING ARSYILA

Arsyila then took the thick book. And now the book is in her arms. Arsyila hesitantly tried to open the first page of the book. And.. Simultaneously, the sound of someone unlocking the door was heard from outside. Arsyila was immediately shocked by the irregular heartbeat. He was sure it was Raihan coming.

A few seconds later, the door of the room opened and soon Raihan's face poked out from behind the door. Arsyila hurriedly hid Raihan's notebook under the table.

Raihan looked at Arsyila with a sharp look. Asryila's face looked deathly pale with her hands and feet shaking violently.

"What are you doing there?" Raihan asked with half a snarl.

Hearing the scene from Raihan makes Arsyila even more nervous.

"eeee.. No.. Not doing anything.." Arsyila answered and lowered her head.

Raihan walked up to Arsyila still with a suspicious look. He was standing before Arsyila. Their proximity makes Arsyila's heart beat faster. He could feel Raihan's breath and also the perfume from the man's body. Arsyila lowered her head.

However, suddenly Raihan held onto Arsyila's chin violently and lifted her up.

"I know you're not doing anything like you said it was.." Sizzle Raihan. After that he took off Arsyila's chin violently and took a worn-out photo that was on his desk.

"The position of this photo has changed. You touched her again, right???" Raihan asked furiously.

"Yes, sorry.. I-I didn't accidentally.." Lirih Arsyila with a stifled voice.

"How many times have I told you Arsyila. Don't you touch anything that's in my room. Moreover, this photo, you don't understand also ha?" Shouted Raihan with eyes that glared as if he wanted to get out of place.

Arsyila could only grimace in fear by bending her body. Then he retreated a few steps back, away from Raihan who was so close to him.

"One more time I see you touch this photo, I will not hesitate to violence against you Arsyila. In spite of.. I REALLY DON'T LIKE TO DO THAT, YOU KNOW??"

"Yes..Ja.. Sorry Bang Raihan, I won't touch him again.." Arsyila replied in a loud voice.

"OKAY. So, you've prepared your things to leave tomorrow right??" Raihan asked. Now the man is no longer standing in front of Arsyila so that Arsyila can breathe normally.

"It's already bang, everything's in the suitcase.." Arsyila said, pointing to her small suitcase.

"good. Tomorrow at dawn we leave home immediately because the flight schedule is at 6 am." Raihan.

"But... If I may know, where are we going??" Finally the question came out of Arshila's mouth. Because naturally he must know where Raihan will take him let alone go by plane, surely the destination is not close.

"You'll know the nantik." Raihan said coldly and after that he went into the bathroom.

The night was getting late, Arsyila who had been sleeping was now jerked awake because she felt her throat dry. He intends to go downstairs to get a drink. Slowly she walked towards the door and her eyes could not be separated from looking at Raihan as if she wanted to watch over her husband who was sleeping soundly on his bed. He did not want Raihan to wake up because he heard himself coming out of the room.

After arriving in the kitchen, Arsyila immediately drank a glass of water until it ran out. Then he also opened the refrigerator and looked for snacks. I don't know why he suddenly felt hungry. Coincidentally there is a cake in the refrigerator, Arsyila just plucked it 2 pieces.

Arsyila then returned to the sofa where he slept. However, just now he covered his body with a blanket to sleep again, suddenly he remembered the thick book that Raihan had placed under Raihan's table earlier.

Arsyila thought hard. Somehow a strong urge arose from within him to take the book. Although he is actually afraid of the threat of Raihan if caught touching his belongings, but.. Arsyila also walked slowly to Raihan's desk and then fumbled to the table to pick up the book. Until finally the thick book was back in his arms.

Arsyila's heart was racing as Raihan, who had been sleeping behind her, suddenly stretched and turned around. Arsyila rushed back to the sofa and put the thick book in her suitcase. Even though he knew what he was doing was wrong, but.. Arsyila didn't care. Because he was very sure there was something in the book that could make him escape from the snares of Raihan..

The next day in the morning...

Ardan got off the taxi that took him to his sister's husband's house. Ardan was very worried about the state of Arsyila so he was desperate to come even though Arsyila had forbidden him to come.

Ardan stood in front of the fence of the towering Raihan house. He hesitantly pressed the bell slowly. But no one came to open the gate until finally a luxury car stopped in front of Raihan's house.

A driver of the luxury car came out and opened the gate that turned out to be unlocked. A moment later he came back in again and took the car and the passenger into the courtyard of Raihan's spacious house. Ardan who had been standing there quietly did not let his guard just went inside as well.

Ardan saw a beautiful woman of slender stature get out of the red car. Ardan recognized the woman who was none other than the sister of her brother's husband and also one of the students in the place where he was studying at this time.

Ardan has known about Raina for a long time. Who doesn't know Raina on the campus. She is a woman who is respected by many people but not because of her achievements but because Raina is rich so that she can do anything with her wealth. No one dared to mess with him, with his haughty nature that made people so afraid to deal with him.

Raina seemed to be unaware of Ardan's presence there, she seemed busy typing something on her phone while walking towards the main door.

Ardan then sped up his footsteps walking closer to Raina.

"Assalamualaikum, sorry to interrupt..." Said Ardan politely. However he knew there was a guest at home then He did not forget to say hello.

Raina immediately turned to the source of a voice that was so foreign to her. He looked at Ardan with a look of wonder.

"Who are you?" Raina asked without answering Ardan's greetings. Raina did not recognize Ardan at all. Maybe he had been introduced on the day of his brother's wedding but Raina who has a indifferent nature and does not want to know so that makes him really no longer recognize Ardan as his sister Arsyila.

"I am Ardan, sister of Arsyila.." Answer Ardan. Hearing Ardan's reply just now made Raina immediately fold her hands together in the chest and then lift her chin arrogantly.

"Oh.. What the hell are you doing here??" Ask in his arrogant style.

"I'd like to see Arsyi. Can you call me Arsy?" Pinta Ardan to Raina.

Raina lowered her trifling smile onto Ardan and her hands now moved to his waist.

"He's not here. He's gone far.. Bang Raihan took her to where she should be.." Raina said with a cynical smile.

Ardan was immediately stunned by Raina's spontaneous answer..

Seriate..
