The Charm of the Man with a Wife

The End of the Friendly Debate

The woman who had become his wife was standing behind his back to the door. Elvino takes the initiative to approach Shena, but the woman's voice stops her.

"Stop there! Don't come any closer!"

"What's up, Shen. Why are you suddenly acting like that? Is something wrong with me?" ask Elvino carefully.

Shena turned around, put on a sour and unfriendly face. 

"Where do you think your fault is?"

Elvino scratched his non-itchy nape then shook his head steadily. Shena exhaled and then opened the bag she was carrying. He pulled out some documents he found in the safe.

"What does this mean? What other lies are you covering up for me?"

Elvino glanced at the document that Shena threw at the table right beside him. 

"How can you open it?"

"Do I look like a fool in your eyes? A password or number is usually if it does not concern the date of birth, it must be the date of the pent– moment" Shena stopped her speech realizing one thing. In his heart he cheered with excitement because it turned out that Elvino made the safe code using their wedding date. But he is proud to say it. "Damn, besides being rich he turns out to be very sweet! I swear to God I am so ashamed that my husband is handsome, rich and sweet. I'm not going to let any woman approach him. Must be extra careful and maximum service this mah. I'll make Elvino just look at me. There is no other woman. Just be careful if there are wild females or pelakor I'll be so rujak!" Monologue in the heart.

"Shen, Shen." Elvino resuscitated the slightly dreamy Shena.

"What!" shena answered and then flicked her lips. He was trying to keep his attitude.

"Sorry I—"

"I what? Why not be honest from the beginning? Why did you hide it from me all this time to make me think you're just a regular employee here and ...."

The cup!

A chewy object stuck to Shena's lips and made the woman freeze in place. 

"Have you finished getting angry?" ask Elvino.

Shena immediately turned her back on Elvino. He made sure his face was now blushing like a boiled crab. This is the second time Elvino has kissed her. But this time it was sudden and shocking. Shena neutralized the heartbeat that seemed to want to jump out of place.

In order to avoid his groggy taste, Shena ends up protesting over Elvino's treatment. “Why did you kiss me, hem? Didn't I tell you, you can't kiss me if you don't get my permission.”

Without caring about Shena's words, Elvino moved forward and hugged Shena from behind. This time Shena was completely destroyed. However, his prestige still did not want to give up.

Elvino kissed Shena's neck and made the woman shudder. He felt a strange chill run through his body.

"I never hid it, Shen." Elvino placed his chin on Shena's shoulder. 

"You remember? At the time of the introduction with your parents, I introduced the real me. But you see me as what you think. I didn't give you a chance to refute, nor did I ever say I was an employee."

"W-how could I have realized that, if you hadn't told me directly? You should have told me personally, El."

"All right, I was wrong. I'm sorry. Now what do you want? Let me do it," persuaded Elvino.

"Not until you forgive me, Shen. Anyway I haven't got the vitamins I need," Elvino said.

"What vitamins?" Shena's forehead was wrinkled in confusion.

"I haven't had a sweet kiss yet when I need one."

"You-you, yeah! Stay away. Don't pervert! I peed kebelet. Don't let me wet the bed here." Shena kept trying to get Elvino to let go even though inwardly cheered in excitement. But his heart felt like it was going to explode. He was worried that Elvino heard such a loud thump. Also Shena's attitude that looks wrong because of it.

"All right, but I'm sorry." Elvino tried to negotiate with his wife.

"Yes, yeah. I'm sorry, but don't lie anymore! I don't like you lying, let alone having a secret!" shena said, putting on a childlike face, muttering, "Lagian, what right do I not love you sorry? I'm just your second wife."

"Ready, Princess." Elvino turned Shena face him and grabbed Shena's hands for her to hold.

"I promise. Soon he will divorce her and validate our relationship in public" Elvino said in his heart when he heard Shena's slow but still able to hear, then spoke back to Shena. "Alright, please if you want to go to the bathroom. But as a sign you're forgiving me, I'm asking for vitamins." 

"What?" shena asked, looking the other way wrong.

"Don't look the other way when you're with me" Elvino said, releasing his arms. Both hands turned to Shena's face, for the woman to look at her. Elvino dipped quickly and then darted out.

"Girl!" shena screamed out. He realized that several pairs of eyes were staring at him. Shena cleared her throat, then left from there. Before that, he typed a message for Elvino.

"I'm home." That's how the message is.

Before long, a reply from Elvino came in. "Wait for me, I'll be home early in the afternoon."

Shena smilingly formed a crescent moon on her lips then stored the phone back into the bag without replying to a message from Elvino. He took an online taxi to the apartment. However, while on the way, he suddenly remembered his boutique. It feels like he misses boutiques and all the usual daily activities he does. It had been about a week since she had prepared her wedding, she had never been to the boutique again. So, today he decided to look at her for a while while waiting for the afternoon. Shena tells Melva that today, she's coming to the boutique.

Upon arriving there, Shena was greeted by her employees. Especially Melva. The girl kept teasing Shena all out asking about the first night. Shena simply replied to him with a sharp look. However, it only makes Melva more excited to make fun of him.

Beware of Melva's behavior, after several hours managed to survive, Shena finally decided to go home to the apartment.  However, before that he decided to shop at the mall near the apartment in order to cook for Elvino.

After shopping, Shena heads to the apartment and tries cooking while waiting for Elvino to come home. But she doesn't know how to cook properly. Shena is looking for the easiest menu on the google page and then streaming youtube to learn the tutorial.

Today, she plans to cook kale, fried tempeh and flour shrimp. A few hours into the kitchen, Shena finally finished cooking the menu for dinner. He glanced at the wall clock. His eyes widened to see the short needle was in the number seven. That means soon the possibility of Elvino coming home. 

Actually, if there is no tragedy of blasting tempeh or fried shrimp, for people who are experts in cooking, it may not take long. It is different from Shena who never touched the kitchen at all. The kitchen this time was in a heartbreaking condition, a mess like a broken ship. 

Not yet had time to tidy up the kitchen, suddenly the bell rang and soon the door opened. Elvino walks into the apartment and calls Shena.

"Shen, Shena!"

Shena walked half-run towards Elvino to make him slip due to oil splashes when fried shrimp earlier. Elvino rushed over to Shena who was screaming in pain. Shena was still wearing an apron and her hair was grimacing in pain and sitting on the floor.

Seriate...
