The Tarnished Wife

I'm a bad guy who doesn't deserve love

Behind Rara's happiness, there are two people who are still suffering. Reza and Manda. They have to pay for what they have done. Reza continues to live in regret, while Manda lives in the shadow of Reza who never thought it existed.

Reza and Manda were in a car, they left early in the morning to Bandung. There are a few things Reza has to do at the factory today. The factory had a little trouble on the part of one of the machines, so he had to go there even though it was Sunday. However, this time they leave Noah with Mirna.

Previously, Manda was very heavy-hearted when Mirna asked Noah not to come home. He hoped Reza could refuse his mother's request, because if there was no Noah their house there would feel lonely. However, Reza did not reject Mirna's request, making Manda unable to refuse it. Finally, Noah did not come back to Bandung with them. Mirna and Kemal promise to return Noah next week. And, Noah also seemed to be all fun, because Kemal's house was equipped with a swimming pool and various children's toys so that Noah felt at home in that house.

Manda glanced at her husband who kept looking straight ahead. An hour or so they were in the car, but none of them started talking. In this car feels holy, added Reza also does not turn on the music, making the atmosphere more silent.

“Mas,” call Manda break that silence.

“Hmm ..” Reza just cleared his throat.

“Mbak Rara seems to be happy. I'm happy to see it,” said Manda, making Reza turn towards his wife with a sharp look.

Manda could have said that in front of him.

Manda looked towards Reza. “Can't we be happy like them?”

Reza. He refocused with his foresight.

“Mas.” Manda called Reza back and the direction of her eyes remained fixed on the cold man. “We can be like mere ..”

“Stop! Don't ask for something I can't make happen, Sar.”

Reza still calls Manda Saras, as they used to be bosses and secretaries.

“But why, Mas?”

Reza turned to Manda. “I don't love you.”

“You can learn to love me, Mas.”

“How many times have I told you, I can't, Saras. I can't fall in love with you.”

Sarrasmanda crying.”Why, Mas? Why can't Mas love me but can haunt me?”

Manda closed his eyes many times, making the water in the eye patch dripping.

“It should be that when I get drunk first, you don't have to take me to the hotel. You should have taken me straight to the apartment and left me there.” Reza stared intently at his siri wife at a glance.

Reza knew that Manda knew the location of his apartment in the city, because Manda had once been invited by Reza to review the location that was not yet the perfect factory building in the city. The apartment he was going to buy.

“I think, Mas didn't buy an apartment in that location.”

“You didn't set me up, did you?” reza asked with a squint, because if Reza knew that Manda intended to trap him at that time, it was certain that the woman would be finished.

Long ago, Reza wanted to ask this.

Manda quickly shook his head. “It happened so fast and I was confused back then.” Manda bit her lower lip. There was fear on his face.

“Then Noah was a mistake, but why did Mas do it again? I think this baby is not a mistake,” Manda said again while stroking her stomach.

Reza smiled thinly. “That time I was very jealous, because Rara was approached by the owner of the foundation where she taught. I was annoyed by the attention and gaze of the man who looked adoring to Rara.”

“And, you vented your jealousy on me?” Now Manda is smiling.

He was naive enough to think that Reza had changed and started to love him. Ah, really naive.

“You are evil, Mas,” said Manda Lirih.

“Yes, I am evil. I'm a bad guy who doesn't deserve love, including your love” Reza replied, leaving Manda instantly speechless.

After that long conversation, they finally fell silent again. These two people are busy with their own thoughts.

Manda no longer looked towards Reza. He turned his face towards the window. Sometimes Manda rubbed the tears that fell on her cheeks and Reza did not turn to Manda. Somehow he did not feel sorry for the woman who was pregnant with her child, because according to Reza, Manda was also wrong for allowing herself to be eaten by a crocodile who was starving. Isn't approaching a drunk person the same as approaching a hungry crocodile?

Reza's line of sight remained straight ahead and focused on the road. Since the first time Manda made the mistake of slipping the hospital documents stating the surgery to strengthen Rara's uterus, there Reza did not like Manda. Marrying Manda is purely because of Noah, so that the child gets a birth certificate or letters that will be accompanied when he grows up and starts school. While the baby who is now in the stomach of Manda is pure stupidity.
