ELECTORAL MAN
The Fashion Show Event

PHARID

I'm not going to Rian's tonight. Forgive my lies, Nis. I have an appointment with Meylan tonight. She asked me to come to the fashion show held at the Amadeus Hotel. It just so happens that the distance from the house to the Amadeus Hotel takes only 35 minutes. Thankfully I wasn't late. The fashion show held at the hotel was only started around 9 o'clock.

That night under the dim light of the stage lights, Meylan performed. Wander gracefully. She is so beautiful like a Goddess from heaven. The high body is very contrasted with the clothes that dress it. Tonight, she performed a dress design by Stephen Ricky, a young up-and-coming designer.

My heart rippled as I looked at him. Meylan's beauty charm really drugged me. Aaah, I really fell for you, Meylan. I've never felt this great feeling. And now, I'm gonna get you back. Patience, we will be together again. I'm not gonna let you go. I promise, I will do anything as long as you stay by my side.

...****************...

"You're getting pretty, Mey. Your beauty never faded. The more the day shines."

"It can, Mas. This was how it used to be."

My heart was still pounding as Meylan moved towards me. The smell of her perfume really made me intoxicated. He sat on the chair gracefully. We spent the night chatting. He also asked about my new wedding. And also about my wife.

I told him that Ninis, the woman I just married already knew and had even agreed to the plan I offered. Hearing that Meylan just smiled.

"Even I've compensated him. All I do for you" I say for sure.

"What's? so you really...? and the woman just wants to support? hello, is he still sane?" Meylan widened his eyes.

"Ninis. He doesn't love me, either, honey. She had to marry me. He did it all for money, to improve his family's life. When I was honest about the reason I married her, she wasn't in shock or sad. In fact, he ended up supporting my plan. Our plan exactly. Trust me, honey."

Meylan did not answer. He looked astonished. Maybe he doesn't believe my words. He must have thought, I lied.

"If you don't believe. I'm willing to introduce you to Ninis. She's a good girl. Honest, plain and what it is.

"Can I see the picture?' ask Meylan

I don't keep any photos of Ninis on my phone. For a minute, it looks like there's a picture of our wedding that I keep on my phone. There's only one.

"Sugary. Impossible, a woman as sweet as that doesn't make you like it, Mas!" meylan said casually.

"But I don't love him, honey. In my heart, there is only you. Until any moment, you will not be replaced. I'm not interested in him at all."

"Absolutely not. Well, I appreciate your efforts, Mom. I really didn't expect you to do something this crazy, hahahaha." He laughed off.

"It's all your ideas, right? as a condition for us to be together again? relax, Honey. I'm not gonna fall in love with her. It won't. Our status is husband and wife. But deep down, both me and him didn't want each other. Our relationship is nothing more than a business partner. He helped me smooth out our plan, and I compensated him in return. That's all," I said firmly.

Meylan laughed again. I grabbed his fingers to hold. Kukecup.

"So I thought he'd be mad and sued me in court for feeling he'd been cheated."

"In fact not. He's instead willing and willing to follow our game."

"How much compensation did you give him, Mom?" ask Meylan.

I mentioned all the assets I gave Ninis.

"Wow. Many also. Crazy you are!"

"Honey, this madness will not be worth your return to my arms! I love you so much. I'm willing to sacrifice anything as long as we can be together again." I started to sulk and beg him.

"I know, Mas. But do you want to divorce Ninis immediately. What did your parents say and her parents? new marriage spread, cook already divorced?"

"Then after divorcing him, you refer me again. What do people say later? I could be considered an actor!'

"Ninis doesn't mind at all, honey. And according to the agreement, all this time he never opened his mouth about any of this. He never told his parents or his family that our marriage was a theatrical marriage!" my toilet.

"OKs.. But at least, we have a pause first, Mas. Don't immediately claim her divorce. I want us to go through this slowly. We are close again, we are dating again, we feel again our togetherness that was lost. We're going out first!" spoiled door.

Meylan grabbed my hand and placed it on his soft cheek. I couldn't bear to hold her in my arms.

The clock has shown two o'clock at night past fifteen minutes. I gotta go home. Meylan slept in the hotel that night. After driving her to the front of the room and hugging her, I took a break and rushed towards the parking lot.

Seriate.
