TREASON OF LOVE

Chapter 6. Chicanery Viona

Late at night, Azzura was still waiting for her husband to come home. She had not heard from her husband and had not received any message. As a wife, of course Azzura felt lonely when the big house there was only herself. He who did not hire a house assistant took care of everything by himself, but even so Azzura still felt lonely. Moreover, her husband now rarely communicates and is often busy working.

The woman woke up just to welcome her husband home from work. Because usually, Chiko likes to go home at eight in the night and at the latest at nine in the evening.

The person Azzura had been waiting for, she immediately moved on and welcomed her husband home.

"Honey," said Azzura smilingly standing in front of the door waiting for Chiko.

"Baby night. I'm tired of taking a break." Chiko gave Azzura her briefcase and she stepped inside the house first.

Azzura suddenly moody because the person he was waiting for did not give a hug or kiss that is often given in the past. She seems disappointed at the change in attitude of her husband who lately looks so indifferent and not as sweet as before.

"Darling, do you want to eat first or do you want to take a shower?" azzura asked as she followed her husband from behind.

"Just take a shower first, if I eat dinner at the office and now my body is tired, my eyes sleepy want to sleep."

Again azura was disappointed because she had been waiting for her husband to have dinner together. However, Azzura's hopes were not as beautiful as his expeditions. Chiko had no time for either of them.

"Well, I've prepared warm water for you to take a bath." Although disappointed, Azzura still became a wife of understanding and tried to understand the circumstances of her husband.

After preparing everything, Azzura chose to go to the kitchen for dinner. In her solitude, Azura contemplated alone longing for togetherness with her husband. Eating together, often spending time together, but now everything slowly changes over time and Chiko's increasing busyness in the world of work.

He stared at the food on the table. Her husband's favorite food, but the food was not even touched by the reason that he had eaten at the office.

"Since you've been in office, you've been coming home late at night. Even you also forgot my birthday, Chiko. I'm more comfortable when we used to be. Where you have plenty of time for me, come home not late, eat together often, I miss it all."

Azzura began to notice every change in her husband. As it turns out, the busyness in the world of work slowly makes Chiko slightly changed and even rarely communicate again.

Next day.

Azzam Residence.

"Where are you going Ghin? Why do you have to wear open clothes like that?" Azzam disliked Ghina's wearing a knee-length skirt with a shirt that showed little of her curves.

"I'm looking for an extra job, Mom. I can't keep quiet at a time when our finances are running low." Ghina smeared red blush lipstick on her thick lips.

Ghina who was dressing up was getting irritated. She expressed dislike for her husband who was getting more and more organized. "You don't have to set me up, Mom! If I don't look like this, there can't be anyone willing to take me to work. This is the modern age where everyone follows the trends of the times. I want to find a job not to study. Should support me instead of hindering my intentions. This Mas should be happy to have a wife who wants to help you make money, not even say no. Are you able to make a living for our lives? No, right?" ghina thoughtlessly expressed her frustration and insulted her husband.

"Astaghfirullah, Ghina. What's wrong with you? Why are you being like this? What made you change, Ghina? I don't think I recognize you anymore." Azzam took out his uneg-unegs as well. He felt his wife had changed and was disappointed in what Ghina was doing.

"I'm still the old Ghina, Mas. But circumstances that changed me. We need money and whatever I do for our lives. Instead of arguing with you, I'm gonna go get a job first." Ghina took her bag and left without saying goodbye to her husband.

"Ghin, I'm asking you not to work with such an appearance. That's not good for you as a woman!" Azzam tried to chase after his wife, but he could not catch up when Azriel woke up crying. He automatically turned his wheelchair into the room.

Chiko Residence.

"Darling, have you forgotten something?" azzura asked Chiko who was standing up while helping to pair off from the. She hopes Chiko remembers her birthday.

"Something?" muttered Chiko remembered something. Instantly, he realized one thing.

"God, did I forget something?"

Azzura smiled believing that her husband would remember her birthday. However, the smile faded again when Chiko discussed work, not her birthday. Azzura loosened her hands and released her hands on Chiko's tie.

"I have to get to the office immediately because today the main director will come early in the morning. I as a manager must be there early in the morning to prepare all kinds of company reports. Sorry baby, I have to leave immediately." Chiko picked up her bag and hurriedly ran out of the room.

"Honey, you're blowing something." Azzura made a sound that made Chiko reverse her steps again. Then kiss Azzura.

"I have to go."

"No breakfast yet?"

"Later in the office." Chiko is also missing behind the door. Azzura let out a long breath and sat down limp on the edge of the bed.

"You're starting to change, Chiko. You are more busy working than our relationship. You also forgot my birthday." Asphyxiated, that was what Azzura felt at this moment. She just wants to spend time and attention with her husband. Not wealth, not matter, not life in treasure. Azzura only wants a life that used to have nothing but togetherness they are able to create a happiness and harmony in the household. Now, all of that is slowly disappearing as time goes by so quickly.

"Party makes you change."
