The Love of the Master

Episode 4

"Mom, I-I just-." Andra's words came to a halt as Ayunindya came out of her room.

"Mrs, I'm ready." Seeing all gathered in front of the door made Nindya a little scared, what else Aileen looked at him suspiciously.

"Well, let's say Nindya's coming with me now." The big lady named Anye was taking Nindya away right now. Actually, Anye still did not understand Aileen who asked her to bring Nindya. Because all this time Nindya worked very well. At least he did not feel suspicious of the girl.

Affandra and Nindya had never been seen together, so all this time, Anye had been kind to her maid. Nindya also came with Anye to the main house. Andra and Aileen drove her mother to the front of the house.

Since Nindya and Anye were gone, Andra went to the office. But a little restrained by Aileen.

"Andra" call Aileen.

"Yes, what's wrong?" answer Andra.

"I'm going to my parents' house, anyway, I'm confused about what to do here alone."

"Ready, I'll take you."

"Emm, I'll just bring my own car."

"All right, I'm leaving now." Though inwardly, Andra was pleased with Aileen's decision to go alone. So he didn't have to bother driving her.

***

In office.

Andra could not focus in her work, Nindya's shadow was always present in her memory. He can't let this drag on, he has to take action. After all, he did not fully believe in his wife.

He also had to keep an eye on Aileen's movements as long as she wasn't home. And today, Aileen left without wanting to be ushered in by him. She must not be careless about this, at any time this could be proof that Aileen is indeed not a good wife.

I don't think the office hours are over. Andra is getting ready to go home. He snatched his car keys after wearing his suit.

The streets are a little jammed, because it's time for employees to go home. Every now and then, Andra glanced at the clock on her wrist. He had to get home quickly, his feeling said that Aileen must not have come home. If that's true, this adds to his point of not continuing his knick-knacks with the woman.

Gradually, the streets started to run smoothly. Andra quickly drove her car. Shortly, he arrived. He saw his wife's car parked in the garage.

"It's good that when she comes home, she's serious about proving that she's gonna be a good wife." Andra got out of her car.

His return was warmly welcomed by Aileen, the woman took the bag and suit that Andra had brought.

"You must have cape, I've prepared warm water for you" said Aileen.

Andra was still cold, even though her soul was still here, but her mind remained on Nindya. The further along with the girl, the more she missed him.

Andra continued walking, until now she was in her room. Aileen prepared all the needs of her husband, after which, Andra immediately cleaned up. After that, he came out. He saw the clothes his wife had prepared. But he didn't see Aileen there. Undeniably, his feelings were always suspicious of his wife.

"Is this just my feeling?" said Andra himself.

After wearing clothes, Andra came out of the room. Intending to find his wife, he just wanted to make sure that his wife's words were true. He saw that Aileen was preparing dinner. The woman was helping her assistant put food on the table.

Andra approached, he kept watching his wife. Is that woman sincerely doing all this? Did he accept this marriage? Thought Andra. If so, what should Andra do? If he continues to marry Nindya, it means that he himself will hurt Aileen. He did not appreciate his wife's efforts that would be better.

"What do you eat the same? Let me get it?" aileen asked after Andra sat herself on the dining table chair.

"Just fish and vegetables" Andra said.

The more Nindya forgets, the more Andra remembers her. The taste of the food tasted bland, he used to be served by the girl.

"What are you doing, Nindya?" inner Andra.

"Ndra, why dream?" ask Aileen. "Is the food bad? Or because there's no Nindya you're like this?"

The last question from Aileen made Andra turn to his wife.

"What do you mean?" ask Andra.

"You can lie to me, but your eyes can't lie to me. Your look at Nindya is different."

"Don't worry about you" elak Andra. "I was just cape in the office" he continued.

"Is that so? I hope it's true. If you're telling me to be a good wife, why don't you be a good husband to me."

Aileen provoked Andra's emotions tonight, what exactly does her wife want? Does she really know how her husband feels about Nindya?

"That's enough, Aileen. Don't you talk about Nindya, she's not here anymore."

"Yes indeed, he is not here but he is in your heart" Aileen said.

For some reason, Aileen was jealous of Nindya. But she could not prove that her husband had feelings for the girl. That's why he wanted the maid to leave the house.

Andra did not want to make a fuss with his wife, what else fuss Nindya. Obviously the girl is no longer here, why fuss about the unclear. Andra preferred to finish the dinner, not wanting his wife to corner him. It seemed, Aileen was indeed deliberately to reverse the facts. She wants her husband to feel guilty here. Though it is clear, Andra's relationship with Nindya is caused by himself.

Back again to the beginning, where Andra was disappointed on his first night.

***

On the balcony, Andra was sitting. Looking at the beautiful stars in the sky tonight, he occasionally sipped his cigarette. Nindya's shadow could not be lost in her mind. Then, he remembered where he had fucked the girl. Although half conscious, but he knew that Nindya also returned his treatment that night.

"Do you love me, Nindya?" andra gumam. If that were true, he would fight for his love. No matter the wedding that has been planned by his parents. Because he was disappointed in his wife. Despite Aileen's efforts to become a better wife, she remains disappointed.

Nindya who has given her crown, the girl who is more entitled to her. Not Aileen. Andra became upset by herself when she remembered her current state, she became far away from Nindya. Long time he was on the balcony, during that time, Aileen did not catch up with him. Was that woman angry about what happened in the dining room earlier? Thought Andra.

Andra moved from her place. He was looking for Aileen's whereabouts. Until he met the assistant chief.

"Mona, in Aileen's mama?" ask Andra.

Mona was silent, did she have to say it? But, he had promised not to say it to anyone including his employer.
