Doing good must be
But not like a candle
Light up somewhere else
But it's not left

Jonathan let out a small sigh before explaining it to Ayana.
Remember how to deal with an angry woman. Going back to the basic rules women always win. If the woman is wrong, then return the basic rules.
His wife was now crossing her arms in front of his chest with a gaze staring in the other direction. She was very reluctant to look at her husband's face which looked very irritating and rancid.
Jonathan's hand held Ayana's shoulder and rotated to face her. But the woman still looked away.
"Relax Ay, Mas will explain, after all, right here Clarissa is sitting in the passenger seat, not in front." Clearly slowly.
Earlier when Clarissa asked for help she actually wanted to refuse, not good two people who were not alone in the car anyway. Even though he himself had no such intention.
But still to avoid the slander and temptation of the devil, he asked his friend to sit behind. Like a taxi driver delivering a ride.
"Know not Mas, with Mas brought him here, just the same. He incised a wound to my heart. Already know Ayana does not like him, but Mas recklessly brought him here."
She said in a slightly trembling voice, she deeply regretted her husband's attitude. Why not learn from mistakes.
" It's not so Deck, I just want to do good."
The man did not break off to give understanding. Actually, this is all his own fault.
"Yes Mas did do good to others, but the good deeds even hurt Mas's own wife, Mas we can do good to others but not to gnaw on ourselves. Don't be like a candle shining somewhere else, but he's gone unnoticed."
Ayana really blew away all her anger.
Jonathan ruffled his hair violently, indeed in his heart he had no such intention at all. And besides that why his wife suddenly became philosophical once, where to try those words.
"Let's remember I'll tell you"
The man then begins his story.
Flashbacks
The office began to be quiet, all the employees had returned to their homes. Only Jonathan remained busy with his work. He is still working with a company that turns out to have branches in other regions. Moreover, the VAT is not done centrally, so inevitably he has to ask for additional data to the client.
Before receiving additional data, he had to change some things in some items that did not seem to comply with the rules.
"At this hour, would I rather go home, pity Ayana is waiting alone at home, where it rains again, later if the lights off how." Thought worried.
The last few are indeed frequent power outages during heavy rain like this, because there are electricity poles at some point that are submerged in flooding.
He had actually installed a generator in his house. But it would be very unwise especially he let Ayana in a pregnant state walk in the middle of the darkness to turn on the generator.
How cruel he is.
After turning off the computer, he decided to go home. Previously he put client files in a locked closet afraid that the files were stolen by people and could be misused.
"Jo, thank goodness you haven't come home yet."
It was unexpected that Clarissa was still in the office. His partner has been home since. He looks a little messed up with the eyes for that reason. The feeling was nothing this morning.
"What's wrong?"
He asked because he felt something was wrong with his friend.
"Well, may I ride home with you, for I am at present at odds with my husband."
"I don't think you're married."
"Yes, it's the usual family matchmaking." Reply reluctantly.
"My life is very complicated, so let me take you, I beg Jo to help me." Pintanya.
"I've been waiting for my wife."
Jonathan thought of Ayana waiting alone at home.
"Oh Jo, I'm asking for help, we live in the same compound anyway."
"Right, I just found out."
Jonathan did not think that Clarissa was actually married, considering that she had been approaching him lately. It was from what Airi told him, I don't know himself either.
And Jonathan understood that, so he did not want to talk about it anymore
“Why not take a taxi online?”
The guy tried to offer options, lots of roads to Rome right?
“Come on Jo, you don't be stingy with this friend of yours, after all there are online taxis that will accept if it rains heavily like this. Than I don't go home.”
The man weighed doubt, he also could not bear to leave his friend alone in the office.
Everyone has returned to their homes, each only a few Cleaning Service and Security are on guard.
"Alright, you can come but sit in the passenger seat."
"Every Brother Gopek." he said with a laugh.
"Eh, but you can hang out at your house for a while."
"Whatever's important don't make my wife angry."
Clarissa put her shoulders together, for her wife Jonathan was a friendly man. And all that was done when he got to their house.
Clarissa finally cut down Jonathan's car

“So so Dek, you don't misunderstand me anymore.
Jonathan tries to persuade his wife who is still sulking.
“If Mas don't want me to sulk don't do things I don't like, let alone you two were the three of you who must be demons,” he grumbled.
He really does not like Jonathan's actions even though they have nothing to do he still feels jealous.
Memorizing the word made his cheeks heat up.
"All this must be due to the Pregnancy hormone." her mind dodged.
Jonathan smiled wryly as he looked at his wife's cheeks that were blushing red.
"it's cheeks asking for a pluck, these three aren't Satan Ay, but you."
The man tried to melt the atmosphere, he then invited Ayana to come forward to accompany Clarissa.
“Mas Nathannnnnnn, so Ayana is a demon.” Resentfully
"Mas Nathan is an astral being, likes to appear suddenly from a long time ago."
He won't budge.
"So that's your nickname for your husband, you son of a bitch."
"So no more angry, right?"
"Know, let's go back to the pity of Clarissa sitting alone."
He stepped into the living room, and Jonathan followed him from behind.
In the living room Clarissa still sat down to check her phone several times and then put it, it was done repeatedly.
“Where will your husband pick you up from here?” Jonathan asked to stop his movement.
“Emmm yes so, but I don't know.”
His gaze led to Ayana who this time did not look at him fiercely, she was finally able to calm down. It seems Jonathan was able to resolve this misunderstanding. How thought.
“It is willing to enter the magrib time, we want to pray first yes, please wait here only because the rain is still falling profusely.” Ayana said in a friendly tone, she now has no reason to be so strict with Clarissa.
“Alright, thank you Ayana.”
“Come Mas.” Take it to Jonathan.
Arriving in front of the mosque Ayana pulled Ayana's hand with a look on her face, because the prayer time was still 15 minutes, why his wife hurriedly left the living room.
“Begini Mas, it looks like he is being agitated and well not wrong if we give him time to be alone again.”
“Means?” tanyanya.
“Basic Mas Nathan if about women never sensitized.”
“I pekanya if the same you doang Dek.”
