This morning Anjani was a little different. He put on his face in simple makeup and put on neat clothes. He also polished his lips with a slightly colored lipstick to hide his pale face. Although still wearing an apron, Anjani's appearance is quite interesting to the attention of the fillers of this house. Maybe because Anjani does not usually appear like this.
“Wah, Ma'am Jani dandan. Where do you want to go Mba?” asked Cheryl who asked. The woman looked very fresh this morning, with complete makeup on her beautiful face.
“There are affairs outside. I can get Mas's permission, want some business outside. At least two hours aja.” Anjani asked her husband for permission.
Andrew noticed Anjani for a while, this woman's attitude was a little different since this morning. He also woke up as usual when last night he ate the martabak Cheryl bought.
“Where are you?” Andrew curious. It is not usual for Anjani to travel other than to go to the supermarket or visit her mother.
“You met,” Anjani accidentally replied with a hanging answer. He wanted to know Andrew's reaction, whether he cared or not for him.
“Please.” That's Andrew's answer, guessed by Anjani. This man never even cared that Anjani was allowed to visit his mother. Let alone intend to accompany Anjani to meet his mother, dropping off until the bus terminal never wanted to. The reason is only one, busy.
“Thank you,” Anjani is still being as respectful as ever. Andrew's current position is still her husband.
“Hem,” is only a short statement that Anjani heard.
“Meet men what are women Mba? My advice anyway, if Mba wants to travel, it's good not to wear that shirt. Lipsticknya also not that one, not suitable. The effect is cheap.” Cheryl's advice could be so demeaning to Anjani. The woman had deliberately wanted to bring down Anjani in front of her husband's family.
“Thank you for the suggestion, but I'm pretty confident with this kind of appearance. Not very flashy. Besides for me, cheap is not a matter of appearance but attitude. There were many people whose appearance was classy, but his attitude and thinking were cheap. I think that's more embarrassing.” I don't know where Anjani's courage came from to chimed in the woman's words. Maybe because last night he clearly saw how cheap the pair of lovers who secretly did the affair behind him.
Anjani's words made Cheryl speechless, the woman sipped her drink agitatedly. How dare an Anjani chimed in his words. Meanwhile, Anjani just smiled a little, showing her calm demeanor.
“I agree. Thanks for breakfast Mba, I first,” said Carissa as she moved from her place. He patted Anjani on the shoulder who was no longer bending as usual. He knew exactly, there was a huge change in his sister-in-law.
Anjani smiles small, “Be careful on the road,” her message thumbs up by Carissa.
While Widi and Cheryl are still staring at Anjani with an inexhaustible thought. This woman is too brave. “Note to Cheryl's advice, she knows best about fashion. Don't embarrass yourself.” Widi tried to mediate, she did not want the model to feel offended.
“Iya Mah, thank you. But I'm pretty confident in my appearance. Appear alakadarnya because my intention is only to meet old friends, not seduce someone.” Again Anjani chimed bravely. For him, this was his last chance to beat back his opponent before he left this house.
“Ehm! Yes, if you feel comfortable with such a style. No need to discuss anymore.” Andrew was also angry to hear Anjani's chimpanzee. The taste of the sandwich was like turning into a dry bread that was difficult for him to swallow.
Anjani just smiled and enjoyed her breakfast with sandwiches. While Cheryl smiled cynically looking at the calm-looking Anjani beside her.
On the way to the office, Cheryl was still speechless and did not say much. His face also looked glum and irritated.
“What's up?” asked Andrew who was watching the woman earlier.
“Yes, maybe indeed Anjani is comfortable with such an appearance.” Andrew was pretending to be stupid.
“Don't belaga don't understand Mas. That was your wife, quipped me. He said his purpose was for me. I'm sure you understand. And you remember, the cheap ones here are not just me, but you are also.” Cheryl said with great regret. He even pointed at the face of Andrew who was beside him.
“Yes what do you think I should chim in on? You yourself are the first to disturb him, you should also know the limits. Don't say something that can indeed attack us.” Andrew was trying to be wise.
“Oh, so you mean I was wrong and harassing your wife? You are smart, my God, beat me up. You forget who teased and scrolled first? That's you Mas!” Cheryl is not accepting.
“Yes, it was me. But it was Anjani who said so to yourself. You are also offended. While the truth is we did have an affair.” Andrew did not want to be blamed alone, his voice began to rise.
“It's because you're weak. Try from the beginning you leave the woman before our relationship is too far as it is now. I wouldn't have heard such a sentence from that fat guy.”
“Yes! I was wrong! Your satisfaction?!” finally Andrew snapped at Cheryl making the woman speechless with teary eyes holding back tears. Just this time Andrew was making a loud noise to her and it was very painful.
“Sial!" Andrew snorted in annoyance when he realized he was out of control. "That's not to be discussed anymore if the end only makes us fight. Lazy I fight because of small problems like this,” added Andrew when it began to realize that he made his woman sad.
“Small for a man, but big for a woman like me. You want ya Mas, if until I get pregnant, you have to take responsibility. It's our relationship, I don't want to take responsibility. I don't want you to marry me. I won't allow myself to be destroyed alone. Inglet it!” Cheryl began to threaten and Andrew could only fall silent. He gripped the steering wheel tightly, Cheryl's speech did not seem to be playing games.
In a different place, Anjani is currently seeing a lawyer. He decided that he would be parting ways with Andrew.
“Are you sure, mistress?” that question was thrown at the shrubby woman who looked so calm. A divorce is not an easy thing, but it seems like this woman has settled on her choice.
“Yes, I'm very sure. I want to end this marriage immediately. It's proof of my husband's infidelity.” Anjani handed over a flash to his lawyer, as evidence of his charges. Other mistakes may be forgivable, but an affair such as a recurrent illness should not be allowed. Because he would repeat himself for unreasonable reasons.
The man nodded in understanding at Anjani's decision. “What do you have children with your husband?”
Anjani firmly shook her head. Just this time he felt a little grateful not to have a child with Andrew. If only the boy existed, I don't know how he would explain his separation with Andrew. Somehow he had to treat the wounds of his son's heart that might be more broken than him. He did not want to, because of a separation, his son became a victim. It was not only his wounds that had to be bandaged and healed but also his children's wounds.
“Please take care of this file immediately. I'll be out of that house soon.” Anjani asked seriously.
“Good mistress. But are you going to ask about the gono gini treasure? Let me enter in delik ajaran.”
Anjani was silent for a while, considering this lawyer's question. Andrew and his family have hurt him a lot. They also exiled Anjani's mother who was only a farmer in a village. Does that include a loss?
How much should he sue?
