The Soul of the Maya World
Chapter 16
"Wulan," Fian replied as he turned towards Laras who was drying his hair with a hairdryer machine.
"Oh," replied Baras briefly.
"You're angry" asked Fian, holding onto the shoulder of the wife who was busy with her hair.
"No, just pick up who knows what's important" Laras replied as he turned off the hairdryer and stood up from his seat to walk to the bathroom.
"Halo Assalamualaikum" said Fian, activating the loudspeaker on his phone while holding Laras' hand so as not to leave the room.
"Hello Mas, where are you?" asked Wulan in a spoiled tone.
"Home, why did you call me this early," Fian asked in a flat tone.
"I just want to take you to lunch today, you want to" Wulan asked while in a spoiled and seductive tone of voice.
"I'll come, what time we meet," asked Fian, holding his wife's hand.
After determining the time and place of the meeting Fian immediately closed his phone. The barrel who heard that the husband had agreed to the ex's request immediately pulled his hand and walked towards the bathroom. Fian who was ready at that time went straight out of his room and immediately headed to his study.
"Darling! I went to the project, Assalamualaikum," cried Fian to his wife who was in the bathroom.
Baras who was in the bathroom was crying by holding his chest. Laras did not expect that the husband he always had pride and defended in front of his parents would be willing to accept another woman's invitation to meet this afternoon. Laras's heart ached and claustrophobic in light of Fian and Wulan's conversation over a phone call.
"I can't believe you're so brave of me, I think you can really forget about Wulan" Laras said in tears.
The swiftness of the tap water that Laras deliberately turns on does make his crying sound almost inaudible. In a different place Wulan started contacting Siska to inform her about her meeting with Fian this afternoon. Siska who heard the news from Wulan was instantly happy.
"That means that Fian has started to open his heart to you, and I'm sure he will soon leave the poor woman" Siska said with a happy smile.
"Right, after I get rid of that woman I will ask Mas Fian to release Aldi," Wulan replied with a triumphant smile.
"You're serious, Brother will make sure Fian is yours in the near future" Siska told Wulan by phone.
Siska was so very appreciative of Fian and Wulan's relationship. The wealth possessed made the matre Siska justify all means to make Fian return to Wulan. Although it must make the marriage between Laras and Fian destroyed.
"Bejo!" fian shouted to Bejo as he was about to enter his car.
"If Laras asks, just tell him I'm going somewhere" Fian said as he got into his car.
Not long after Fian left in his car. Laras who from earlier cried out to meet Mbok Ijah in the kitchen. At a glance Laras saw the parking lot next to the workshop. However, she did not see her husband's car there.
"Bejo, Mr. Fian said where he was going" Laras asked Bejo.
"Say Ma'am, he said he wanted to go somewhere, but didn't say where he was going" Bejo replied as he stood before Laras.
"Well, thank you," Laras said with a smile and walked towards the kitchen.
When he arrived at the kitchen Laras who had just entered the kitchen saw Mbok Ijah who was busy cooking for him and the employees in the workshop. The barrel that looked lethargic immediately sat on a chair in the kitchen. Mbok Ijah who saw an unusual attitude in his employer immediately sat in front of Laras.
"What's wrong, Ma'am, it seems dizzy," asked Mbok Ijah while sitting in front of Laras.
"Mbok can please make me some warm tea" Laras ordered as he turned to the old woman before him.
"Well Ma'am," replied Mbok Ijah while standing from his seat.
"Bok if a husband keeps his past and keeps on good terms with his ex-lover what that includes cheating on him," Laras asked Mbok Ijah who was making a cup of warm tea.
"If according to Mbok he is not Mbak, because everyone has a past and everyone is special in that era," explained Mbok Ijah while putting a cup on the table.
"But they are still on good terms Mbok," asked Laras as he began to drink warm tea in front of him.
"Mbak Laras there is a problem with Pak Fian," asked Mbok Ijah while staring at the lethargic face of Laras.
At a glance Laras glanced towards the wall clock in front of him. The hour hand shows at 10 am. Mbok Ijah who saw Laras like confusion tried to ask what really happened.
"Oh Allah soon Mas Fian will meet with Wulan, what are they doing now, what is not.." Inner Laras while drinking the tea that is in front of him.
"Mbak, Mbak Laras," called Mbok Ijah which turned out to make Laras surprised.
"Yes Mbok," Laras replied in surprise.
"Either Mbok, lately I have often felt tired" Laras replied as he stood up from his seat and walked towards his room.
Today Laras is really not calm, a lot of questions are in his head. The question of what Fian and Wulan were doing at the moment. Adultery? I don't know, the already uncomfortable Laras just paced back and forth in his room anxiously.
"What is the moment they do husband and wife relations as before," Inner Laras while continuing to walk back and forth in his room.
The barrel that was not calm at that time suddenly like hearing ***** and moaning pleasure Wulan. Fian's face began to be drawn as if enjoying an intimate relationship with Wulan. Feeling himself was not calm Laras immediately entered the bathroom to take ablution water and immediately perform dhuha prayers.
"O Allah, I give you my marriage, I place my trust in my husband on you. I am sure that if he is the soul mate and priest of the world and my hereafter you will surely keep this marriage bond so beautiful that in your paradise" said Laras, pleading in his prayer.

In a different place, Fian was enjoying his activities as a contractor. He swiftly checked in on several projects that were being handled. The busy day and the schedule of meetings with some clients made him forget his promise with his ex-lover.
"It's 11 noon, it seems like I should leave now," Fian inner as he looked at the circular watch in his hand.
Fian went straight to his car and quickly did it. When he saw a flower shop on the side of the road, Fian stopped his car to buy some red roses. Fian who had just arrived at the workshop directly walked towards the room.
"Assalamualaikum," said Fian as he slowly opened the door of his room.
"Waalaikumsalam, you have returned Mas," asked Laras while kissing the husband's hand.
"Here, I want to shower and pray later I want to go again," replied Fian while closing the door to his room.
"Today so meet Wulan," asked Laras curious.
"So, oh yes, I bought red roses for the princess" said Fian, hugging her husband.
Laras who felt betrayed tried to avoid the embrace of the husband. Fian knew why Laras avoided his embrace. With a smile Fian went into the bathroom to clean himself and prepare for the dzuhur prayer.
"Honey, quickly take a shower and prepare because soon it has entered the dzuhur adhan," Fian ordered to Laras who was busy arranging red roses in a vase of flowers.
Baras did not answer the husband's words at all. She kept arranging roses in a vase on her dresser. After finishing Laras immediately stood up from his seat and walked into the bathroom to prepare to pray dzuhur.
"She must have thought that I had met Wulan," Fian's inner voice smiled and held a prayer mat on the floor of her room.
"Today we pray each other," said Laras while wearing a face.
"Why, we usually pray together," asked Fian curiously.
"There's nothing" Laras replied as he began to take a perfect stance.
"Allahuakbar," came the sound of Laras who had started to pray.
After the prayer Fian asked Laras to get ready immediately because today he wanted to take her somewhere. After a while to get ready they left using the car driven by Fian. After a journey of almost an hour they arrived at a cafe.
"Why he brought me here, is it possible that they are meeting in a cafe," Inner Laras while looking at Fian who was parking his car.
"Let's go in now, they must have been waiting for us" Fian said as he opened the car door for his wife.
"Is it possible for you to meet in a place like this Mas," asked Laras while looking confused.
"Indeed why is there something wrong with this place," Fian asked with a smile.
"No" said Laras briefly, holding the husband's hand.
Laras and Fian also began to enter the cafe room. A cafe that is simple but looks so unique with its ancient architecture. The sound of music that shahdu adds a romantic impression in the cafe.
"You sit here first yes, I'll order you drinks and food" Fian said as he walked towards the cashier's desk.
Laras looks so very enjoy song after song in the cafe. Sometimes she even sang along to follow the voice of the singer. Fian who had just finished ordering food and drinks sat down in front of his wife.
"Do you like this place" asked Fian, holding his wife's hand.
"Like Mas," Laras replied with a smile.
When they were talking and joking. Barrel was surprised by someone's arrival. Someone he had known so well.
"You" said Laras, standing from his seat.
