The Marriage Order
S3 Still in Boutique



"Do you know my husband?" I looked at Felicia with an equally frown.


"Ehm, no. I remember an old friend when I was studying S2 in Australia. Your husband's name and he's the same."


Felicia's answer made the wrinkles on my forehead grow. I wanted to ask him more and more considering that Baruna is a name owned by a few people. And again, as far as I know Australia is indeed where he studied his S2. Unlike Kak Reza who continued his education in the country.


"You know, Fel. I think this is very surprising. My husband also studied in Australia. Are they the same person?"


Felicia looked silent before answering my question. Meanwhile, Nayara and Rafael can only look at us with astonished looks. Not long after, Nayara suddenly raised her voice, commenting.


"Fel, Sheryl's husband is the director of Asyraf Corp. You and your husband must know her, considering you and your husband are both businessmen in Jakarta."


"David." Suddenly the woman snorted a small laugh calling out a name that instantly made me feel very confused. "Baruna Adrian Ashraf?" The woman spoke my husband's name very fully.


"Yes! He's my husband. So, you know him?" I answered with buying eyes.


"Of course!" Felicia's view became strange. Looking at me from head to toe, he continued, "They are the same person. Your husband and an old friend of mine, Sher."


What is so strange about me? I think this woman is very strange. This is the second time he has done it.


"Wow! Totally unexpected at all. I didn't know the world was that small!" nayara said so amazed.


Somehow my expression was not the same as Nayara who showed her surprise with mainstream views. My feelings are not good. He could only put on a fake smile in front of the woman.


"I don't know if my friend's taste is like you" he chirped suddenly.


"You mean?"


I couldn't understand where this woman was going. But as he answered, my phone rang.


"A moment" I said, asking for permission, and left the room.


My husband's name is on the screen. Soon, I'll pick up the call.


"Yes, honey."


"Still in the boutique?" tanyakanya.


"Yes, Honey. Didn't you say you were busy?"


"I and a prospective buyer of Asyraf's stock were having lunch at his restaurant. You know, this is the sushi restaurant we went to on a date. I just found out he owns it."


Hearing the name of the sushi restaurant we visited while on a date at the amusement park, made my mind drift. Remembering the annoying ex-boss who loves sushi from the restaurant.


Aih, you must be crazy to always associate him with that guy, Sher. Wherever ....


"Do you like it?" ask me to Baruna.


"My client's a man."


"No. I mean sushi there."


"Oh .... Tasty. Like most sushi. It's the same for me. The other is the owner."


"Owner?"


"Yes. He is David. Second son of the Berlin family."


"Oh. I don't know. Sorry!"


"Hey, you don't have to memorize all my business associates, honey." Baruna chuckles.


I'm laughing too. "Eat a lot. Soon, I'll have lunch too."


"Yes, Honey. I really can't bear to see you again and resume the session this morning." Baruna's tone started mischievous in my ears to make my face warm up instantly.


"I love you" I replied.


"I love you too" he concluded.


I took a deep breath, put the phone back in the bag and entered the room earlier. Nayara and Felicia seemed to be having a very close conversation.


"Oh, come on, Nay! You must accept the love of my sister-in-law. He was so crazy about you," Felicia told Nayara that she made the woman who had a heart for my husband flutter to listen to her words.


"Gathan, huh?" he looks a little shy.


"Who else? He was so naive. Never been dating. Too busy watching the youngest brother in my husband's family." Felicia chuckles.


"Your youngest brother-in-law is why, Fel? Isn't he an adult?" Nayara.


It seemed that the two women did not care about my presence there and were still busy talking. It sounded really exciting but I wasn't too interested and ignored it.


I turned to Rafael and greeted him, "Rafa, can Auntie know the name of your robot toy?" my many.


Rafael looked at me while showing his sweet smile. "Jiban, Aunt."


"What a good name. Does it mean anything?" tanyaku while buttressing chin. Her innocent face made me feel at home for a long time nearby.


Does this mean I'm ready to be a mother?


"No. I just love that name. Mama gave me a name." The little boy shook his head.


"Oh ...." I understand.


"Sher, let's measure your body." Suddenly Nayara called.


I turned to look towards him. "Have you guys finished talking?"


"Yes. Sorry to make you feel neglected" replied Nayara with a face that was still red. Felicia was still smiling looking at him.


"It's okay. Looks like your chat is very exciting. I didn't let my heart break it" I replied.


"Oh, you're understanding, Sher. I'm so embarrassed." Nayara put a palm on her face. Put a smile on for me.


"Wait for your invitation" I said in teasing. Nayara just chuckled in response.


An hour later, we all finished discussing and measuring the body. Felicia and Rafael left the boutique first, while I was still in Nayara's room.


"Nay, about Fely, doesn't he like me? Why did you look so unhappy when you looked at me?"


"Don't like it? It's normal, Sher. Just carry it like that, but she's a good woman" replied Nayara defending her friend.


"really?"


"Yes. You have to get closer to knowing her true nature, Sher. When he becomes your friend, he'll be a good friend."


I was silent for a while before finally responding to Nayara's words. "Oh, like that."


"Yes. What if later we often hang out together to get to know him better? I see, you really like Rafael."


"Bo-can't." I nodded in agreement. The charm of the little boy was inevitable. I really like it. "I don't have many friends either" I added.


"Well, right? I'll call you back later if I get a chance to see him. We can go out together."


"Yes, Nay."


After saying that, Nayara and I walked out of the room. But when we had just closed the door, Reynand was in front of us. I don't know what he's doing here. The man looked confusedly at the two of us.


"Sheryl, Naya?" he said with a surprised look as if he saw something unusual.


"Hi, Rey! Whoa, what wind are you here for?" ask Nayara.


"Meet your brother. Ordinary, I order a suit for Asyraf next month, but it's done, anyway. We'll have to eat after this" he said.


"Well, coincidences. Sheryl and I haven't eaten either. How about we eat together? It just so happens that there's a new restaurant near this boutique."
