I let out a long sigh when Hansel decided to sleep on the sofa. I was relieved, because he wanted to understand my condition and situation that was still trembling in fear because of his actions.

After going through such an unexpected time, I remembered not giving any news to Bagas. Since noon, I turned off the phone because I charged at my mom's house because it ran out of battery. I think later after filling up a few percent, contact Bagas.

After connecting the connector with the phone and about to turn off the power, my phone rang. Call in from Hansel, and he met when I got home from mom's house later in the afternoon. I'm saying yes, because I'm lazy to argue. Wait a minute, it's okay, right? And this is my umpteenth folly, for it is willing to obey Hansel's request.

But I forgot not to turn on my phone until I met Hansel at the mall entrance and no longer needed to contact him, so the phone again I ignored was off. Then it continued until almost six o'clock in the evening with Hansel without remembering maybe people were worried about me.

The rain suddenly just fell. And what made me even more distrustful of what was happening today was that I heard like Juwita's voice was finding my presence there. I was shocked and my mind was deadlocked in addition to pulling Hansel away from there before the person I suspected Juwita was actually catching us both.

This is where I ended up, in Bagas hotel room and some time ago something bad happened that almost made me really have to lose the figure of Bagas.

Recalling Bagas' name, I hurried to send a message. We replied to a message at nine o'clock over thirty-five minutes.

Fun, that's how I feel when I'm away from Bagas and exchanging messages like this. Like there is a feeling that makes my side of my heart want to miss and want to meet him.

Until when Bagas replied with a word of kangen, I said my honest heart feeling, if I was also missing him even though only two days did not meet. Saturday is still four days away, and it feels so long. Time moves slowly when thinking about Bagaskara Adewangsa.

“Payback bobo Nad. Uday malem.” Hansel hoarse voice so shocking my daydream about my own husband.

I looked at the source of the sound, where Hansel was curled up behind a blanket on the sofa. There was a slight sense of not having the heart to see his tall body curl up so. But let it be, instead of us having to sleep one bed.

“Eumm.” I answered briefly and pulled the blanket to the neck. There's still misgivings in my mind. Scared when I was fast asleep, Hansel suddenly did something bad to me. That's why I still refuse to close my eyes.

“No need to worry I did a bad thing to you.” he said like he was guessing my way of thinking. “That earlier, I really didn't—”

“Okey. We're sleeping now. I believe you will not do anything else to me.” I said quickly made Hansel speechless and sound comfortable position there.

I re-tapped my phone screen, it had been almost fifteen minutes Bagas did not reply to the last message I sent. Is he asleep? Oh well, just think of it. Bagas must be tired all day working, and it would be very unethical if I was selfish to want to keep him replying to my message. I tried again to keep my mouth shut, until everything felt gradually fading and I coiled up soundly.

The morning was so bright, I had already changed into my own clothes even though it was still a little wet.

There's no way I'm going back home in Bagas's clothes. Could die hanging by the same father if it really happened.

“Still wet to use anyway Nad?” hansel asked, more like an order for me to wear his clothes.

“Nothing, sir.” I replied back as usual. As it should be between a superior and a subordinate. It's like nothing happened last night, and I intend to forget it all.

“Pak?”

“Yes. Something wrong?” I don't care if Hansel's gonna sulk or whatever.

Hansel's forehead wrinkled faintly, but a smile puffed up on his lips afterwards. “OK. Your own smile. I'm not maksa.”

After saying that, she walked over to her suitcase to pack the dirty clothes I wore last night and put them in the suitcase. Something felt wrong in my heart.

“You sure you want to take home? Father's wife can suspect that until she was the one who washed the clothes.”

“What's the reason?”

Maddened. This man is not sane. How could he be that relaxed in response to my fears and worries? What if his wife found out he was with another woman last night? Then, how the fate of their next marriage, if he finds out he played behind?

“Pak. Try to think again why I asked so.”

Hansel laughed, then stood beside me, hugging me from behind without feeling uncomfortable about my half-wet shirt. “I'll wash that suitcase. And the clothes you wear, I'll keep them as mementos if we're ever this close.”

I flinch from taking off his embrace. “Please, let's just end this, sir. I am not comfortable and will feel very guilty if until—”

“Sshh... All will remain safe and fine.”

Damn it. Again I ate his seduction. Ah, why am I enjoying this closeness again anyway?

“Later in the afternoon, take me to the airport. Okay?”

I doubt. The distance from the airport and the house is quite far. Plus I didn't come home last night. I'm not sure mom or dad gave me permission. “See later only. I can't promise.”

Okay. Let's just say I'm crazy now.

“I take ya?” ask her when I managed to escape from her embrace.

“Ngak. I can go home by myself.”

I grabbed my back bag and put it on. Then grabbed my shoes and I put them on because I had to hurry home before you asked Dani to look for me.

Along the way since coming out of the hotel parking lobby, I was afraid that someone would find me again. Especially Juwita.

When I got to the alley, my feelings became less and less complicated. Afraid that Juwita would ask her home, or at worst she would tell her father and mother if she met me at the mall with a man. I'm not lying, I'm scared now.

After the door was opened, the front door was still closed. That means the mother is still busy in the back, and the father must have gone to the rice field or either to the farm shop, because the motorbike used by the father to the rice field, is not in place.

Opening the door a little worried, I inhaled a pleasant aroma of spices in the air. I was busy making breakfast that might have been made for me.

“From anywhere last night don't go home?” mother asked me as my feet walked into the room about to change clothes.

“Kan yesterday Nadya has announced, Mom. Nadya nginep at home temen.”

“Which cement?” ask mom with a sarcastic tone that can't be hidden. I think mom is suspicious.

“SMA Management, ma'am.” I thought of the name of someone who had been there and was close to me in class. But, there's nothing like it. I obviously know how I went to school. There are no friends but Bagas. “Rita, son A. Yani.”

She shut up and continued cooking. I chose to run quickly to the room to avoid the questions you would have told me to look for my whereabouts last night who didn't come home.

Just when I had undressed my upper clothes, my phone shook. Bagas called early in the morning.

I grabbed my phone and answered a voice call from Bagas.

“Halo.” soft sapaku.

“What's going on, Nad?”

“Bathtime. Want to help mom cook.”

Lying again. I don't know how many more lies I'm gonna do to cover up my cheating?

“Oh, jaudah. Don't forget to eat.”

My heart that previously felt so heartbroken, turned warm after hearing Bagas' words. “Eumm. You also do not forget to eat.”

Bagas ended the call after saying he missed me. There are no other conversations because maybe Bagas also has to hurry to work.

I put my phone on the dresser, but the display was back on. This time from Hansel.

Mr. Hansel: Don't forget about the afternoon. Try to do it, huh?

***

Accepting Mr. Hansel's request, I'd be willing to drive more than an hour to the airport. This afternoon is a little cloudy, and Mr. Hansel's flight hours are still about thirty minutes away.

We decided to go into a shophouse selling ready-to-eat drinks in cups, then sit around for a while and enjoy the afternoon scenery that is not beautiful enough to look at.

“If you have returned to Jakarta later, do not change like a stranger.” press Hansel sir on me while sipping coffee order.

I snorted bitterly because indirectly, again I must be reminded of the relationship that occurred between us. “You usually like it Nad. Suddenly bad mood. Ndiemin I suddenly, I'm so confused myself.”

Who's wrong with me.

“Yes that's a natural thing, sir. We have each portion and personal different.”

There was a notice of the flight that Mr. Hansel was about to use. They want all passengers to get ready for the cabin. I heard a plane landing.

“Okey. See you in Jakarta, darling.”

I widened my eyes. Since when did he create that name for me that he did not expect at all?

Then I shook my head. Can't believe we've come this far.

Hansel stood up, holding my hand to his place into the cabin of the plane.

We went through several doors where the person who seemed to have just stepped out of the plane I heard had just landed a sedan walked in. There were so many people, smiling as they were welcomed by their loved ones.

At once I thought of Bagas, and glanced at my hand which was in Hansel's grasp.

Damnit. Why am I like this.

However, just as I was about to ask Hansel to remove his armband from my wrist, I raised a gaze that fell upon the presence of someone.

My eyes were wide open, my jaws were hardened, my lips and tongue were twisted, my body trembled and my legs felt limp helplessly on the airport floor. Hansel, who asked me why I looked afraid, did not let me know and only focused on one object standing there, was staring and watching me with a flat face that scared me half to death. He was there looking at my cheating with his own eyes. He looked at me as if he was questioning why I was doing this all behind him. He looked at me like I was someone he deserved to hate forever. To throw him away from his life.

If a squirrel jumps, it will fall.

If you want to keep a carcass, it will smell.

Bagas.

Bagas saw everything. []
