25 Years of Father
The Fatal Lie

One of the female friends whose husband also works with my husband is currently coming to visit home. I welcome her very well. Where I saw her making a video call with her husband. We sat in front of the house until at night I offered to sleep at home because he was home alone at this time.

He agreed, tonight we will sleep together in my house. Not too familiar but we talk a lot trying to familiarize ourselves. At the end of the night, I got a message from my husband.

"Darling, I'll go first. There'll be a briefing from the boss." I said to Angga be careful.

I feel so uncomfortable, I don't know what that means. However, as hard as I can try to look calm and stay focused. Tonight's something I never thought happened. I accidentally heard loud music on my friend's call at this time. She had nothing to say to her husband. Just limited to watching if her husband does nothing else.

Because I know how their problems before marriage where her husband often changes partners out there and his wife knows if her husband ever cheated. That is why until now she has not given freedom to her husband.

"They went to the club. Style right." My ears suddenly buzzed at the words of my friend.

I immediately stopped my work. My chest suddenly felt so tight. My body trembled repeatedly I tried to call my husband but was not picked up. My anger is getting worse now. I really don't know if Angga is abusing the trust I have.

"They're all there?" I saw him nodding casually.

"Try asking my husband if he's there? I want to see dong." I said in a relaxed voice.

In fact my chest was very rumbling holding back the anger at this moment. The next second a video call was directed at me and I saw how Angga was sitting relaxed enjoying the atmosphere around him.

I felt tired of my body seeing the behavior of the man I trusted. "Lord, I pray my husband works in your protection, why is this what he's doing there?" I was angry that I was crying in my heart because my calling was not lifted.

"Mba, please tell her husband. I called my husband not to be raised about it." I said with a smile.

Until finally my phone rang. I can't stand my feeling of being disappointed.

My body trembled shouting at my husband on the other end of the phone. I swear by whatever it feels like I really don't know my current husband. I feel betrayed once.

"Anggia, I'm not lying. We were briefing but we were told to gather here."

"Oh, told to get together? The permission instruction was the same as me. Can't go to the club, can't you permit me first?"

"I know you must be angry..."

"Good, Angga. Goody. You know I can never forgive. You lied to me. You see I can also do more than you do now." The tears that fell on both of my cheeks immediately I removed. I left the house that night and left my friend at home. Let me no longer think of anyone else at this time. My heart hurts too much.

Along the way at exactly ten o'clock in the night I cried in the street riding an online ojek.

"Lord, what less am I as a wife? I've even seized a lot of my energy to help earn money in order to save. I never even asked for anything from him. I just ask for honesty. Even at home I never protested, I just obeyed. While out there many wives who play with their friends at a time have free time. While I'm always at home for the sake of obeying my husband's request that I don't want to go out."

The phone in my bag was totally ignored. I don't know who called me. I don't care anymore. I don't know where I'm headed right now, one hour I asked for an ojek to accompany me around in the city at midnight. I don't think anything bad is happening to me right now.

Maybe if according to some women, lies can still be forgiven. But not for me. One little lie in my opinion can ruin a marriage. One point of the gap was able to make a stranger into my household. I realize where I'm from. I am not a child from a good family. Mama's and dad's household had so many new problems that I knew about the foreigner thing that went in and destroyed everything.

I don't want that to happen in my marriage. And that's what I'm doing right now. That is to keep as much as I can the integrity of the household, and one of the causes can occur from a night entertainment place. The cruelty of women out there on our marriage should we be aware of.

"Anggia, please listen to me first. I want permission, but I'm scared." I'm closing my phone. I wiped my tears reading my husband's message that I could no longer believe.
