“Who are you talking to?”


Theo surprised. The reflex hung up his phone as soon as he heard a similar question from behind his back. He then turned his body, facing Lely who was staring at him full of telisik.


“Mom see you smile yourself. Your face is so different. Like someone who is kasmaran. Who the hell are you talking to? Not possible with Laura right?” Lely was suspicious.


Theo was wrong to accept his mother's gaze. He seemed suspicious of his movements. Lely is not an easy person to fool. Lely had memorized the truth if he was hiding something.


“What is this mom talking about? That was a friend of the office.”


“Only fellow office friends can talk to each other I miss you? What friend is a friend?” Lely is squeaking sharp. He felt sure that Theo was most likely close to someone. It can be seen clearly from the gelagatnya who did not want to be found by Laura. Theo's eyes glanced at his room.


“Friends, Mom. Don't like it, Mom. I'll hear Laura. I don't want Laura to misunderstand.” Then he started to go back to the dining room. Lely followed behind him.


“Lifting you are honest with Mom. You're close to someone, right? If you are honest, it is okay. I'm glad you have another woman. I'm also happy if you want to get married again. Who knows your new wife is healthier than Laura. Kan Mommy can quickly nimang grandson,” said Lely while taking a seat in front of Theo.


Instantly Theo loses his appetite when Lely brings up the matter of grandchildren. The spoon he had put in his hand was put back.


Five years of marriage with Laura feels lonely without the presence of a child. If I can be honest, I feel lonely. His friends whose marriage is only two years old have been blessed with momongan.


As a man, he felt useless. He has done everything, but even to this day, destiny is still not on his side. In this case he did not want to blame Laura too much. Laura has tried so much. Maybe God has not given them the confidence to be parents.


Theo exhaled a long breath while leaning back. His gaze was empty with a sad eye. Working as a reporter actually quite a lot of time in the field. He lost a lot of time with Laura.


However, even so he did not forget his responsibilities as a husband. It's just that, lately, something feels different. It was like finding a new color in his life. Different colors in every day money passes.

“Have you successfully interviewed Mr Antonio Gonzales?” Laura asked while chopping up apples. He and Theo were sitting in front of the lit TV. It's already night time. The blazing sun had been replaced by the night moon


Theo who was holding a laptop, busy in front of the laptop screen shook his head slowly.


“Not yet. Antonio Gonzales is very difficult to find. Though I have made a promise in advance with AFECTO. But, still, it is very difficult to meet him.”


Almost a week Theo was out of town just to be able to interview Antonio Gonzales, Managing Director of AFECTO Group.


AFECTO is a Mexican multinational furniture retailer. A few years ago, he opened his channel in Indonesia. AFECTO itself only a few years ago also began to rise in the country thanks to its products that are specifically designed according to needs and the price is relatively affordable.


Theo was assigned to interview the Director of AFECTO. Thanks to his expertise to seduce the AFECTO, Theo managed to get the schedule of the Dirut's visit in some of his stores scattered almost in several major cities in Indonesia.


Theo thought that by having Antonio's schedule, he could easily meet him. But in fact it is so difficult to meet the man of Mexican descent. Theo finds it a little difficult because Theo has never seen Antonio's face.


Of the many photos posted in various media, there was never a photo of Antonio alone. There are only photos of Antonio with the AFECTO Group officials. So Theo has trouble recognizing who antonio is among the higher-ups.


“Propos yes dear. I'm sure you can definitely interview that Antonio.” Putting the plate containing the apple piece on the table, Laura then stroked Theo's shoulder to encourage him. Then he took one apple. The piece of apple was placed in front of Theo's mouth.


“Sama-sama, dear.” With a smile, Laura leaned her head against Theo's shoulder. This is how Theo is when he is at home. Sometimes Theo takes work home, like it is today. Even at home, Theo is busy.


As a wife, Laura felt lonely. Not only the presence of Theo that Laura missed, but also the touch of love Theo that he rarely got again. You could say, lately he was mistreated. Theo prefers to mingle with his work than with him.


“Honey, are you not sleepy?” laura asked as a form of satire if she was waiting at this time.


“Not yet. If you're sleepy, you go first. I still have a job. I have to submit this report to Mr. Samsul tomorrow morning. You sleep first, I'll catch up.”


Laura was disappointed, but did not show it directly. He just took a slow breath. His head that was leaning sweetly on Theo's shoulder he removed. In the past, Theo's shoulders felt comfortable as a place to lean. But now it feels very different. I don't know why, suddenly Laura's feeling is not good. He felt Theo was starting to change. Could this be just his feeling?


I don't know.


“Ya. I'll sleep first.” Not wanting to argue, the ends of which will even be a fight, Laura chose to give up. In the end, they will meet in bed. In bed, they do nothing but sleep.


Yep. Sleeps.


Though Laura is very craving night activities that lately often missed. Or maybe Theo had forgotten the man's busy life.


“Good night, dear,” Laura said before finally passing by leaving Theo with her job.


“Goodnight,” reply Theo without taking his eyes off the laptop screen. But a few seconds later he had to turn his head because his phone was clinking. Quickly he grabbed his phone lying on the table, before the sound of the incoming chat message caught Laura's attention.


Theo quickly installed silent mode on his phone. So that every incoming message or call will not ring.


Theo's face turned tense instantly as he opened the incoming message. A photo of a woman dressed in sexy plastered on her phone screen as soon as the message was opened. A photo that evokes passion.


“This shirt fits not in my body? I was gonna wear it when you came. But apparently, you didn't come. I miss you very much.”


Like that was the message that accompanied the photo. Which makes Theo's smile spread by itself.


“You are so beautiful, baby. I want to see you tonight.”


As soon as the reply message sent Theo to the woman. Theo's sweet smile spread across his face, with sparkling eyes looking at the photo. Though only last night they spent the night together, even separated just this morning. But Theo misses the sexy woman. The woman in her eyes was very different from Laura.


“I wait. That's also if you can.” The woman's reply.


“Ten minutes I arrived,” reply Theo.


“I'm impatient. Be care fully, Honey.”


Closing the screen of his laptop, Theo rushed up from his seat. With a sigh, he entered the room. He moved carefully when he opened the closet to pick up a change of clothes, so as not to wake up Laura who was asleep. The fire of gairrah that has been tempestuous in his soul will not be easily extinguished if he does not meet the woman who deliberately burned the gairrah. In Theo's mind right now there was only that woman. For a moment, she forgot about Laura.
