WIFE INSTINCT

Mistakes Considered Right

"We're going back to the office, right?" said Richard.

"Come, please" replied Rani, letting go of Richard's hand. He looks upset.

"You mad?" Richard asked. He looked deeply into Rani's face.

"No." Rani answered briefly. He did not look at Richard's face. Richard knew that Rani was actually angry. Rani's face can't lie.

"Later in the afternoon we will take a walk. I-i promise. I'll pick you up later. Now we have to go back to the office first. We're only a few minutes late. Don't worry." Richard convinced Rani. Rani looked at Richard and nodded.

"alright. Do not break the promise yes," replied Rani with a sullen face. Richard pinched Rani's cheek.

"For a girl as beautiful as you, I won't break my promise." Richard blinked one eye. Rani smiles. Both of them went back to the office. They didn't know, across the street was a pair of eyes looking at them. On the way, both were silent. Richard extended his hand back holding Rani's hand and placed it on her waist. Rani did not protest. He resigned. both hands now hugged Richard's waist tightly.

"Richard, I'm afraid someone's seen us." Rani says.

"Don't be afraid. Relax" replied Richard. No more talking until the two got to the office. Rani first goes into the office. Richard was waiting outside. A few moments later he came in.

"Don't tell anyone we're having lunch together." Richard sent a message to Rani.

[Yes. I'm not gonna tell anyone. Don't forget your promise. But I don't want to get into trouble with your wife. I don't want him to misunderstand, so make sure everything's safe.] Rani retaliated.

"My wife is not home. You don't worry. I want to ask you one thing. Do you like me? Please answer honestly."

[I know it's not worth saying because you're married. But honestly, I liked you from the first time I saw you. Sorry if my feelings are wrong.]

"Hmm, I can tell from your eyes that you like me. Your feelings are not wrong. That's a natural thing."

[Really? I'm being embarrassed. Maybe I should forget my feelings.]

"Why do you say that?"

[Because I know how I feel clapping one hand. Especially if you are married. I'm sorry, I'm just saying what I feel. Now I'm relieved.]

"Who said you felt clapping one hand? I like you too. You have to take responsibility for making me fall in love with you."

Rani's heart flowered to read a message from Richard. He smiled to himself when he found out that Richard liked him too even Richard fell in love with him.

[Seriously, you like me too? Be responsible? How-how?]

"I want you to be my lover and I don't accept rejection. I'm serious, I like you even love you."

[What about your wife? Am I just going to be your lover?]

"Don't think about my wife. He'll be my business. I can manage everything if you want to be my lover."

"Thank you dear. I'll pick you up later in the afternoon. There's still a lot I want to say to you. I love you, Rani Permatasari."

"I love you too baby. I'll see you later in the afternoon. Don't forget to delete all messages."

Rani is so happy. He smiled to himself. The man she greatly admired, whom she loved so much, was now her lover. At first Rani was worried because Richard had married but now she seemed to not care anymore.

'I'm sure everything will be fine, because I'll be careful. I believe Richard can keep all this from his wife. There's a lot of cheating out there, not just me. Richard and I love each other anyway. Love is never wrong for me. I'm sure Richard had his reasons. It could be because his wife who may have been less attractive or maybe his wife can not make him happy. I can't wait for the afternoon. I have to ask about his relationship with his wife.' Rani.

[Dev, there's a night flight. I'm not staying overnight, I'm going straight home.]

Emma sent a message to Devan. He just finished an important meeting. Cellphone's ringing. Devan called.

"Emma, the weather's not good. I don't want you coming home tonight. Tomorrow morning." Devan's voice was heard from across the line. Emma was silent for a moment. He looked out the window of the hotel room. Outside is drizzling outside. Emma relented.

"Alright Devan. Doesn't matter. Tomorrow morning," replied Emma.

"OKs. Have you eaten?" ask Devan.

"Yet. I didn't have time for lunch because I had to rush to input some important data. Still drizzling outside. I can't go out to get food. It'll be 'all nights" Emma replied.

"Stay there. Don't go anywhere." Devan said and then decided on his call. Emma's confused. He doesn't understand Devan's intentions, but he chooses not to care. He put down his phone and headed to the bathroom to clean himself up. A few moments later he looks neat and beautiful in a relaxed knee-length floral dress. Mesipun already has two children but Emma still looks durable. The appearance is simple but elegant. He also likes to dress up but he is more likely to use natural makeup. His hair curls waist let him unravel. He has a high body posture with an ideal body shape. Her skin is yellow. If considered carefully, Emma has beautiful eyes and lips that can be considered sexy.

He sat on the bed looking out the window, hoping the drizzle would soon subside. He already feels hungry. While waiting, she tried to call her husband. Several times she tried but her husband's phone was off. He tried to call his assistant.

"Bi, is the papa the kids haven't come home from work?" Worried, Emma asked when her maid picked up the phone.

"So long ago, ma'am, but you're gone again." The voice of his assistant replied.

"Alright bi, thank you. I'll be home in the morning. Please take care of the children, ", Emma said and ended her call. He feels restless. She contacted her husband again, but in vain. Her husband's phone is still inactive.

'Why does my heart feel so unsettled. He doesn't usually turn off his phone. He always tells me wherever he goes.' Emma batin. Instantly a painful shadow of the past flashed through his mind.

"Not again, God. Hope not. I'm traumatized. I'mtired. I just want to live happily." Emma said and rubbed her face with both hands. He tries to think positively. She tried to convince herself that her husband had changed.

"I can't guess the no-no. All this time, after that incident I've seen a lot of changes and I've never seen anything as strange as before. Her phone I see a lot and I find nothing. All right, for a while I'll wait. May my husband be well, wherever he may be."

Waiting for a drizzle that never subsides makes Emma sleepy. He plans to sleep for a while. Just now Emma lay her body there was a knocking sound on the door of her room.

Geck, tock, tock....
