The sanctity of Love

119

Hira closes his laptop, it's almost dusk but Erfan hasn't come home yet. He tried to contact me, but there was no answer.

"Maybe he's busy" he thought and went to the bathroom. Until last night her husband did not come home. He had contacted Galih but Erfan's assistant didn't know where the boss was. Tian was the same, the man was not with Erfan.

"Non, there was a letter from the courier this afternoon." Said Bi Atun after knocking on her master's room door.

"Letter," he murmured, "without name." Hira flipped through the envelope, she returned to the room after thanking Bi Atun.

His heart became unsettled, he feared Erfan why-why. This reminds Hira of the kidnapping of her mother-in-law. Slowly Hira opened the envelope, she was afraid that the contents of the envelope were bad news about her husband.

"Astaghfiullah!" The contents of the envelope were released from Hira's hands, the pregnant woman shook her head slowly. It was impossible, her husband could not do such a thing.

The photo of Erfan sleeping with Salwa was very clear. Argh, how could Hira accept this. I hope what he sees is not true. They sleep sharing blankets with naked. Hira could not imagine all that.

"Haahh," Hira hated these weak tears, she wiped her tears violently. I don't want to believe it, but how? What he saw was not an edit.

The pregnant woman was sitting limp on the side of the bed. His heart throbbed with this betrayal.

Inside his office room Erfan had just woken up, he glanced at the clock in his hand at ten o'clock in the night. The man hurried to wake up, his wife must be anxiously waiting. Sure enough, a lot of phone calls from Hira.

Erfan drove his vehicle quickly, to get home soon. After asking Galih to pick him up at the hotel this afternoon, he fell asleep.

"Sweety," he called when he got home. His wife was asleep on the bed. "I'm sorry I fell asleep at the office, honey."

Hira hasn't slept, but she's lazy to respond to her husband's babble. Sleeping in the office he said, even though in the same hotel women. The other day his permission to meet with clients, but it turns out to meet other women. Hira had reminded Erfan not to meet Salwa anywhere.

Erfan peeked at Hira's forehead, but his wife inched backwards. Not sleeping, he murmured. What happened to Hira, angry because he was late. The man moved away from his wife and into the bathroom, his body very sticky.

Finish taking a shower Erfan sits on the side of the bed. While putting the phone on the nightstand, the net found an envelope. He hurried to open the contents.

It's worth getting angry, so this was Salwa, his his hiss squeezed the photos until his veins poked out. Wanted him to kill this second as well as that one demonic woman.

"Sweety, this is not what you see in the photo. By Allah, there was no promise to meet him. It's in the trap dear." Clearly Erfan, his wife could definitely hear his voice.

"When Mas said there was an impromptu meeting it turned out I was framed Sweety. Galih no contact Mas, his phone is intercepted. Tian also remained meeting with Ressa. You can ask them if you don't believe."

"Mas doesn't remember anything after arriving at the restaurant, when he woke up in a hotel room. I'm not doing anything, Sweety."

Hira flirted, did she have to believe the words of her husband. Their misunderstanding used to be also because of Salwa. Will he repeat the mistake Erfan did first because he does not believe in him.

"For God's sake, dear. You ask Galih, he asked to investigate the incident last afternoon. Go home from the hotel Galih was picked up, so Mas overslept until night because it was still under the influence of sleeping pills."

Erfan hoped Hira would listen to him. He could not let his wife think about this problem and stress. The condition of the fetus can be dangerous.

"Dear, believe the same. I promised you never to see him again. I never deny that."

Hira turned around, he did not cry just his heart that seemed to be squeezed. "Really?" One word Hira spoke without expression.

"Yes, Honey. You have to believe me, he wants to see us fight. Ask Galih, Tian or Ressa."

"Don't be affected by Salwa, honey. He will soon be in jail. Just waiting for the police to take him." Erfan hugged his wife tightly, Hira did not dodge anymore.

"Mas is not aware Honey, if Mas realized it is impossible to be close to him. Waking up is not a waste either."

"It can be Mas."

"Sweety, enough. Believe the same, by Allah. I'm not doing that, we're waiting for evidence of a hotel cctv being hacked. Right now I just want you to believe, honey." It hurt when Hira thought of him sleeping with the demonic woman.

"He really didn't kiss you?" Tanya Hira doesn't like it.

"You don't know, honey, you don't know how to remember."

"There's no lipstick in here?" Ask again.

"No, Sweety. You're angry to make a big splash."

"I'm still mad, Bee!" Snarled.

"I'm hungry, I haven't eaten yet, Sweety. Athaghfirullah I also do not pray from dzuhur because of overslept." Pekiknya then jumped from the mattress, Hira giggled at the behavior of her husband. He woke up to eat dinner for Erfan.

"Mas, you have to take responsibility. You've been harassing me." Salwa said in tears as Erfan came.

Erfan was surprised by the presence of Salwa who was in his office early in the morning. He was afraid that Hira would be influenced by the words of the demonic woman. The man clasped his wife's hand.

"You mean what Salwa, I never touched you." Erfan's hiss was cold, with the gaze of an eagle capable of prying Salwa's eyes.

"This is proof Mas" Salwa threw a photo before Erfan, "if you still don't believe. It's all because of what you did." The girl unbuttoned the shirt, and showed a red-red mark under the collarbone. Hira gulped his coarse saliva, trying to digest Salwa's words.

"You said, don't put a mark on your body so your wife doesn't know. I've put everything down for you. Now that you're in charge, I'm afraid of getting pregnant Mas." In short, Hira was flinching on the spot. Who can he trust at this time.

"Don't just talk Salwa, touch you I don't want to." Erfan smiled obliquely.

"You must take responsibility Mas, you must marry Salwa." Hira then left the two men in the room.

"Darling, you don't believe him." Erfan is after his wife.

Blams

The door slammed hard before Erfan came in. The man stared at the door for a moment and then turned to look at Salwa. "It's not me who's responsible, but you." Speak with great emphasis.

"Mas, you mean me to serve you." Lirih Salwa in the midst of her cries. "I'm afraid there's your seed here, Mom."

Erfan was already very sick of hearing this babble of the girl in front of him. If halal kills, he will mutilate right now. "Keep raving as you please, before the bars become your most comfortable dwelling place."

"You won't have the heart to let me go to jail if I'm pregnant with your child, Mas, now I can satisfy you again if you want." He smiled without fearing Erfan's words.

Erfan let out a rough sigh, then pulled the woman out of his room.
