The Pawned Marriage

Wants to Stop

Reno stared at the housing mockup that was being worked on. Undeniably, the man felt at the peak of success.

Business is advanced, family is perfect, and Dela. Yes, the longer, it is undeniable to start growing affection for women who are satisfied with their desires. A taste that had been buried since Dela's departure to America.

Dela introduces Reno to the circel of money people. The investors are difficult to approach and it turns out they are good friends with Dela.

From there Reno gets investors for projects. Dela who is good at making an investment portfolio for Reno. And managed to get a big profit.

Most of the company's money and capital from investors is invested into Dela-owned companies and also to finance their fun activities.

Reno even rented a penthouse as the place they met.

Dela who is really rich is pretending to rely on Reno to know the seriousness of the man who has married it to be with her.

Reno is completely blinded by Dela's shrewdness both in business and in bed.

Nafisa now looks ordinary. Although if compared, Nafisa's face is still much prettier than Dela, but Reno feels Dela is now superior to Nafisa who incidentally is an ordinary housewife, armed with the ability to make cakes and nursing graduates.

Dela is an intelligent, influential woman and can provide maximum satisfaction in bed.

While imagining his lover, suddenly the door of his room was knocked.

“Log.”

An officer entered with a disoriented face.

“Sorry, Sir. Can I talk to you for a second?”

Reno's forehead wrinkled.

“Sign in, In. What's up?”

The employee stepped in doubtfully.

“I want to inquire about funds for the Sedaya Flow cluster in Bogor. The vendors have already inquired about payment.”

“Tell me if they have delays. We must pay, really. Kayak just knew aja.”

“It's not so, sir. But we've been six months not making payment.”

“Say to them next month we lunasin.”

“Mmmm ... What can't this week? Because they threatened not to send raw materials,” Riyadi said again.

“Di, you've been with me from the beginning. They are also all old vendors that we have known from the past, cook can not nego. You are, aja salary aja big ask, same deal vendors do not dare.”

“It's not so, sir. I ...”

“Already! You said next month I pay!”

“Ba .. good, Sir. I excuse.”

Riyadi shuffled out of the room, astonished at the change in attitude of his boss who was increasingly indifferent and arbitrary.

Nafisa looked towards the clock. Now almost every day Reno comes home late without news. The phone is almost always inactive.

As a wife, Nafisa must have felt suspicious. But baseless accusation will also not be a solution.

Aurelie and Milo were playing. Looking around, Nafisa made sure her house was always neat and fragrant before Reno came home.

Arranging such toys everyday children scattered now only a picture book and a few books of stories of the prophets.

The food is ready too. Just waiting for Reno to come home, Nafisa will heat everything up.

Nafisa stared at the mirror. He was neat, did not forget to spray perfume. Nafisa did not want to appear shabby and shabby in front of her husband.

Again Nafisa sent a message asking for Reno's whereabouts. And only one tick listed next to the sent message indicates that the phone Reno has not been active.

A prayer was sent so that her husband would always be in protection and blessing. Prayers that never get bored he said every after prayer.

By ten o'clock at night, while pushing Aurelie and Milo, Nafisa heard the sound of her husband's car getting into the carport.

The woman's gasps tidied up the appearance to welcome her husband. His face looks relieved.

“Assalamualaykum,” greet Reno when entering the house.

“Waalaykumsalam, Bang. Alhamdulillah has arrived home,” reply Nafisa while kissing reverence the back of her husband's hand.

Reno blinked looking at the appearance of his wife who still looks neat and beautiful even though he knew Nafisa had just put her children to sleep.

“Nungguin, yes? Sorry you met some investors.” Reno embraces and kisses the forehead reciprocated with a tight hug from Nafisa. She missed her husband.

“Where is the result?”

“Good, we can additional capital quite large.”

The two of them walked towards the bedroom while embracing.

“Abang want to take a shower first? I had my clothes ready in the bathroom. While you take a bath, I'll heat up the little food and ginger tea.”

Reno cupped his wife's face. Waves of guilt engulf him. How Nafisa has prepared all her needs.

That night Reno did meet with some fellow investors from Dela, but after finishing, they again satisfied his naps in the penthouse.

“Abang why? How to see it?” Nafisa asked while raising an eyebrow but her lips remained smiling. So sweet.

“Abang love so much with you. Sorry if something went wrong, yes.”

“Iih Abang make serem deh.” Nafisa on her tiptoes and kissed her husband's lips.

Reno gasped, not unwilling to accept his wife's kiss, but only after two hours, his lips were satisfied***** belonging to Dela. Reno felt guilty.

She looked at Nafisa's beautiful face with her index back.

“Mafin Abang has made you wait and often leave,” he said and hugged his wife tightly.

Nafisa returned a hug while stroking her husband's back.

“Nafisa sincere, Brother. May the livelihood of Brother who brought home halal and thoyib be a blessing for us the world and the hereafter.”

Reno still did not want to let go of the hug on Nafisa. How comfortable he felt at the time. Dela does provide satisfaction but not calmness. Unlike the time with Nafisa, everything feels beautiful.

“Abang, take a shower first, abis it if not tired, I wait in front of the TV. Last time I made a banana fried honey my favorite brother.”

Reno kissed Nafisa's ears making the owner giggle and wriggle to escape. Instead of letting go, Reno held back Nafisa.

Nafisa smile. “I love you too, Brother. Now shower. Or do you want later?”

Reno knows the code in question, but after his romance with Dela he has not run a junub bath for fear that Nafisa suspects if he returns home in a state of wet hair.

“Abang shower first, later new shower again same you.”

They are looking with love.

“Abang ..” Nafisa pinches slowly Reni's stomach.

“Iya yes, Brother shower now. You are so beautiful.”

Reno then took off her clothes for Nafisa to take to the dirty clothes.

In the bathroom, Reno grabbed her hair to vent her anger at him for cheating on Nafisa. A perfect wife who loves him sincerely.

While waiting for the banana to warm up, Nafisa brings Reno's clothes to the laundry room. Her body stiffened when she saw the red color that she believed was a lipstick mark stuck to Reno's shirt.

“Astaghfirullah. Oh, God, not God. Hope this isn't what I think.”

Nafisa closed her eyes. Breath hunting. Worry filled his mind. I don't feel like his eyes are wet.

Suddenly a pair of hands hugged him from behind.

“Beautiful, it's not what you're afraid of. Dengerin Brother.”

Reno then turned Nafisa's face to her face.

“Beautiful, yes it is a former lipstick, but Brother accidentally helped mothers fall on the escalator. You cannot betray you.”

Reno tried to stare at his wife's clear ash bead. It felt that all the pleasure he felt with Dela was erased already with the worry and fear that Nafisa's neutrals emitted.

“Soy, sorry.”

Reno hugged Nafisa. So tight. It was like going back eight months when he started his bed adventure with Dela.

If he finally had to look at Nafisa's calamity like this, he wouldn't have the heart to play crazy with Dela.

Nafisa's body was still tense. He did not return Reno's embrace. His hands tightly held the shirt with a lipstick stain.

“Darling, nothing. By Allah.”

Reno closed her eyes, realizing every word that came out of her mouth was a lie.

In fact, the lipstick stain belonged to Dela who had spoiledingly blocked Reno out of the penthouse door.

Although thin because it has been erased through their previous hot kiss, but the rest of the lipstick still imprints on the white shirt.

Nafisa distanced her body. Reno frowned as it was unusual for Breath to act like that.

“Beautiful, you trust your brother, right?”

“Abang, whether you are lying or not, only God knows. Which wife is not worried and suspicious to see lipstick stains on her husband's clothes,” Nafisa said in a trembling voice.

He continued, “I always pray that you are always in the care of God. But of course there must be effort from brother. I'm not a fool. How close are the mothers on the escalator until they have to hit Brother? Then can't you dodge?”

Nafisa then passed leaving Reno standing speechless.

After preparing a honey fried banana at the dinner table, Nafisa chose to go to the children's room.

It takes time to neutralize his feelings.

Reno sat alone, thinking about the madness she had been working on for months.

The house looks nice and comfortable. The photos in the display cabinet where they all laughed happily.

“Yes Allah, what have I done? Tomorrow I have to tell Della that I can't relate to her anymore.”

Before long, Reno peeked into her children's room. Nafisa and Aurelie sleep in one big bed while Milo is put to bed in a box.

Nafisa raised her head, they also sat up.

“Sini, Bang,” Ogre Nafisa.

With Reno's relief the road approached, unfolded the blanket and slept next to his wife.

“Tonight can back first,” said his wife who was immediately not missed by Reno to hug Nafisa from behind.

“I love you. Believe the same Brother, all is well.”

***

“Ren, are you sure this is the last time we made love?”

Reno stroked Dela's innocent shoulder then nodded.

At first he only met Dela to end their relationship.

It was just that when Dela begged and started doing things that Reno liked, the man's defense broke down.

With that promise was the last time he would commit a sin.

More than usual, Dela serves Reno. Letting the man colonize his body.

When the game was over, Dela was about to start but Reno refused. The man simply lay with one hand folded under his head, one hand embracing Dela's plain body.

“I can't keep betraying Nafisa.”

Dela's emotions bubbled up, yet she had to play beautiful.

“I understand. Sorry I disturbed you and your family.”

Reno did not respond.

“You're fine, yes. I have to go home.”

“One kiss?”

“No, Del. Please.”

Reno tries to be firm even though her eyes are patterned to see a pair of sexy lips tease.

Eventually his common sense prevailed against the napsu and he got out of bed, put on his clothes and left the penthouse.
