When Love Teases

145. Not as Beautiful as Expectations

Rama opened his coat. Attaching on his great chair. Loosen the tie and sit on the sofa. Just after receiving a guest colleague for an hour and a half.

Trings.

The message notification sounds. Not once but many times. Makes Rama curious. Rise up again grabbing his phone stored on the desk.

Both eyebrows are tied. Then eyes glare. Unknown number sent five photos of Puput with a man. He tried positive thinking maybe the photo was an edit. It zooms in zoom out on photos that have that crystal clear quality.

It's original.

The hot air starts to slip into the heart. Puput has been saying since last night that he's leaving with Cia at 10 a.m. Meetings with vendors. In fact, he received a photo with details of the brand name of the phone used, and the time of the photo. Cheerful scenes, smiling at each other, laughing at each other, and the man rubbed the head of Puput, enough to make his inner birth sultry.

Rama jerks with his back straightened. The face of the man in the photo seems to have been seen while in Ciamis. Glancing at the clock that is coiled around the wrist. Two o'clock over twenty minutes. He wants to contact Zaky. Cropping a photo of a man who is no less handsome.

Zaky is online. Rama immediately sent me a photo.

"Hallo, Zaky." Rama called when the message was blue ticked.

"Yes, Brother." said Zaky.

"So don't ask. You know that guy in the picture?" Rama is on purpose.

"That's...is why, brother?" Zaky asked because he was surprised how his brother-in-law had the photo.

"Just want to know, Zak. Earlier, my sister fad motoin because she felt she had seen time in Ciamis. But I forgot to see where it is." Kilah Rama's.

"That's Aa Idam. I used to love Puput Tea. But eventually become friends, he was nolak bae." Clearly Zaky.

Rama is just a mangosteen. Not prolonging the question. Switch to ask about the news of Ibu Sekar before then ending the phone connection.

As a result, the concentration of work was disturbed because of the photos. Very natural cheer is expressed by both actors. Make his mood go down. Upset and jealous. Already tried calling the number that sent the photo several times, but it is not active.

"Why did you bend that face?" Damar who had just entered, stared in surprise.

"More bete." Sahut Rama with a rough sigh.

"Work problems or personal problems?" Connect Damar with a full glance.

"Personal." Rama answered briefly. Switch massaging the forehead.

"You confiding?" Damar once again attacked Rama.

Rama shook his head. "It's not really a big deal. Why my heart is so moody. I'm weird too."

"Hm. I was going to want a report on the harbour warehouse. But sikon is not exactly like that." Damar attach the back to the back of the chair. Switch to sitting relaxed on foot.

"Is there a problem?" Rama raised one eyebrow.

"Little bit. About management. Last night you need a charger so tomorrow morning ready to hear my report." Damar raised his eyebrows. Rama only responded by snorting.

"Go home yuk! I want dinner with Cia." Damar. The clock shows time to get home from work.

"Lo just go first. I want to zoom in on Ben and Jo." Rama shook his hand to send Damar out of his room.

...***...

Rama had just left his office building after the magrib prayer. Not to drive the car to her house but to Mami Ratna's house. The mood has not improved.

Arriving in the yard of his parents' house, Rama stared at the reflection of his face in the rearview mirror. Patting both cheeks, trying to look normal. He entered with a greeting. Directly towards the dining room when it sounds authentic from there.

"Rama, here eat together." Mami stared happily at the arrival of her eldest son. "Where's fat?" he turned to the middle room.

Papi Krishna only watched Rama who had just pulled a chair and sat down. Listening to the chatter of his wife's son.

"I'm from the office straight here, Mi." Rama turned over the dinner plate in front of him.

"But Puput know if you come back here first?" Papi Krishna started to make a sound. Chewing his food quickly and still intensely staring at the look on the son's face.

"No, Pi." Rama was honest. His hands stretched out preparing to scoop out the rice.

"Don't eat yet!" Papi Krishna. Making Mami Ratna and Rama shocked together.

"You guys fighting?!" Look at Papi Krishna.

"You came here without saying the same, Puput. While Puput there could be ready to eat for you, Rama. Do not make your wife worried because at this hour you have not come home and do not tell me. "

"If there's a problem, talk about it! Finish it at home. Don't just dodge and come here."

"You can't eat. Back home!" Papi Krishna at length gave a firm advice.

Rama lowered his head. Not daring to look at Papi Krishna's face because of fear and disdain with anger wrapped in a loud reprimand.

"Bapi's right, son. If there is a misunderstanding, resolve it with communication. Talk with a cold head."

"Mami also supported Papi's decision. Rama don't eat here. A wife will be sad and disappointed when she has prepared a meal but not at the same meal husband. Moreover, this has not even been home." Mami Ratna was not his son Rama. He will not defend his wrong son.

Rama listened without rebutting. Papi said firmly, Mami said softly. It is the same to blame his attitude.

"I'll go home first." Rama rose. Go to Mami and Papi first, kiss their hands.

Puput has arranged the table with dinner and a surprise was prepared. Smile himself imagines Rama's reaction when he starts eating. And will see a small rectangular gift box when opening the cupped plate.

Bi Lilis put down a small bowl of special order corn cream soup Keeper who wanted it right now. He also smiled when he saw the joy of the master. You could say first know the results of the tests that have been done this afternoon. But of course he will keep his mouth shut.

"Take Neng now, stay warm." Say Bi Lilis before it passes.

"Yes, Bi. Thanks to ya." The desire to eat corn cream soup at this time as well. Think of it as a snack before a heavy meal while waiting for Rama to come home. He was prejudiced well until half a seven o'clock this husband has not come may be stuck in traffic. Because if it's overtime, it'll tell him.

But when the Adhan isya reverberated, Rama had not yet come. The cream soup is over. Puput took the initiative to contact the husband. Connected but no answer. He decided to pray first. Her husband could be driving again.

The sound of the room door opened from the outside when Puput opened finished confirming the prayer. He looked up and smiled sweetly to see who was coming.

"Tumben Aa late?" Still wrapped in a mukena, Puput approached and kissed Rama's hand.

"Almost go to Mommy's house." Sahut Rama flat.

"Oh." Beetle-beard. "Want to eat now? I was ready for that." Heaping while folding his former clothes.

"You take a shower first. Just eat it first. Aa's not hungry yet." Rama passed.

The puput frowned. There is something strange about Rama's attitude. Usually every home is always a spring and gives a friendly hug. This time the handsome face looked bent.

Patiently, Puput waited for Rama to finish with his bath. The change of clothes was prepared. Patience awaits even though the stomach has been rumbling.

"Aa, eat yuk. I am hungry." Puput sulked by draping his hands on the arm of Rama who just finished praying Isya.

"And I told you first. Aa wants to continue the work first. Maybe eat it at nine." Rama uncovers the hands of Puput. Prepare to exit the room.

"Aa, why? Any problems at the office?" Puput held Rama's hand so as not to successfully continue the steps.

"Yes. Night hunt. Aa wants to be in the workspace first. You eat first, sleep first." Rama pulled his hand and left the room.

Aa why is it? Never seen it this cold.

I was going to tell you about the meeting with Idam.

The stomach can only shrug its shoulders. The situation and conditions are not supportive. Over the course of a few months of undergoing the household, only once knew the other side of Rama when he was in a bad mood.

Escape to the dining table that has been conceptualized ala candle light dinner. But reality is not as good as expectation. Forced to eat alone because hunger can no longer be held. Just understand now. It is always worth feeling hungry. Because there is something in the womb.

Continuing work is just an excuse. Precisely in his study Rama just sat quietly massaging his forehead. He also felt strange about his own attitude. Admittedly very childish. Though actually hungry but see the face of the puput even arise a sense of annoyance. Not eating together.

At ten o'clock Rama just came out of his study. The bright lights of each room have been turned off and the lights dimmed. Passing the stairs, he looked up at the face. Could it be that Puput is asleep?

Rama continued his steps towards the dining room. Stunned to see the beautifully decorated glass table. The candles are still intact and have not been lit. Didn't expect Puput to prepare a romantic dinner. He felt guilty for ignoring his wife.

Rama ran and climbed the stairs in a hurry. Wanted to see Puput and apologize. In fact, Puput has been sleeping with his lips slightly open. Marking his wife's sleep was very sound. He can't bother her. Decide to go down again and eat alone.
