Just take him for you
Presume

For more than an hour he sat on the floor either crying over whether he did not understand, which he knew his heart was aching and painful. Salma realized she could not dissolve in this situation, she stood up and wiped her tears quickly.

Angkasa soon returned home, her husband should not see her in such a chaotic condition. His eyes were swollen and his face looked wrinkled. Salma decided to bathe and decorate before Angkasa arrived home.

When her husband came home, Salma decided not to ask and tell him what happened to Angkasa. The chakras have been found and are in good condition. He considered it had nothing to do with the brown door room with him, because all this time the room was like it was hidden from him. There's no point in him bringing that up. Salma also felt guilty for Bik Yut and did not let his presence in this house, making the other residents who first existed before he felt uncomfortable.

After dinner, Salma sat in front of the television watching Angkasa and the twins playing games. While Bik Yut and Narti clean the dining table and join her mouth tightly about the incident last afternoon. The faces of the two still showed a worried face.

Salma's eyes glanced at the brown door that was still bothering her.

"Why are you, I've seen moody all the time? Bored at home? Wanna go for a walk?" Space stood up from the floor and sat on the sofa with him.

"There's nothing."

"Something's up. I can see from your eyes, but I can't see your heart." Space wrapped his arm around Salma's shoulder.

This sweet and romantic attitude was previously accepted by Salma with a feeling of happiness and flattery, but ever since he found the belongings of another woman in the house that should have been his queen, the taste was not the same.

"I'm right it's okay." Salma tried to smile, but all she lifted up was a slight corner of her lips.

"If something is uncomfortable or I'm wrong with you, please tell me."

"Nothing, really." Salma looked at Angkasa and gave a smile, "Kids, let's go to sleep at night." Salma stood up and immediately took the twins' hands and went up to the second floor leaving Angkasa who was still sitting in front of the television.

Space does not give up. When he was in bed, he again tried to lure his wife to tell a story.

"Do you want to go back to work?" Space whispered as he hugged Salma's body from behind.

"Can I?" salma asked after thinking for a moment. He just wants to have more value than Debby. He does not want to be seen by people as just a woman who enjoys the success of Space. While his ex-wife, looks much more classy and unpretentious than him.

"Mm, it's fine, depending on the type of work."

"Acting?" Salma turned her body and faced Space.

Angkasa blinked his eyes, although he dabbled in the entertainment world but he himself did not like the association among artists. Their world is terrible not as beautiful as it is seen on the screen or on social media. Obviously he did not want his family especially his wife in the same circle.

"Mm, what about the others?"

"Mas Asa knows for myself, I really like the entertainment world and my fortune is wide open there. Now there's a lot of offers coming in, but Mas Asa refused them all."

Salma can only resign when the offer of advertising stars, soap operas, films on the big screen flowed heavily but was rejected by Angkasa as the management of the artist. At first he was calm, but since knowing the contents behind the brown door his heart was in revolt.

"Mm, online sales are possible. You can cook, bake cookies, dress or anything online like you used to."

"Did Debby used to be like that?"

"Ow." Salma turned back to Space. Why the topic about Debby this time pierced his heart, even though before this he had no problem about the ex-wife of Angkasa.

"Salma ... Are you sleepy?" ask Space slowly. He was afraid to talk to his wife now. Even though their marriage only counted the size of the fingers and have not held official news, but why is it difficult?

Salma nodded slowly. She was lazy to interact with her husband. He felt distant and distant even though he was now in the same bed.

The next few days, their relationship remained unchanged. Salma still serves the Space as best as possible. Smiling, hugging, joking, serving in bed, but it's all about pretending to be happy.

His mind and heart are haunted by a pseudo-competition between him and Debby. Does Debby serve him better, does Debby cook better than him, is Angkasa happier with him, or does Angkasa see Debby in him?

"Darling ... Salmaaa," call Space for the umpteenth time, "Is there anything you think?"

"Ga .. doesn't exist." Salma shook her head nervously.

"If nothing, why flush the plant like this?" Space takes over the hose from his wife's hand.

The pot of plants that Salma watered was already flooded and some of the land was flowing out.

"Sorry .. I-I just saw a butterfly so it doesn't focus. I'm sorry ya." Salma again took the hose from the hands of Angkasa, turned off and rolled the hose. She was embarrassed, nervous and afraid of making mistakes in front of her husband. He was afraid that Angkasa saw his lack and left him like Armand before.

"Oh, it's okay. Let me take care of that." Space calms him down and tries to help.

"Don't! Let me just." Salma insisted. Space could only look at his busy-looking wife who was forced to.

"Salma, our film received a very good response and is rumored to be nominated for the best film" said Angkasa. He hopes this news can comfort the heart of his wife who lately looks sad and moody.

"Yes I know, all social media is talking about the same thing. Including also questioning the capacity of the artist who plays in it," said Salma slowly.

"Don't believe what's on social media, they sometimes bring up a story without looking at the facts."

"really?" Salma turned her head and looked at Angkasa doubtfully.

"really. Your acting is widely praised by entertainment practitioners. Tomorrow night we're invited to the anniversary of ABCD, and I'm asking you to be present as my wife, not as a moon orchid salma."

"Mas Asa sure?"

"It's time, Salma. You're happy aren't you?" Angkasa is convinced that this is what Salma is waiting for, a confession. He hopes that after this his wife will return as usual.

"All right." Salma smiled faintly. Should he be happy or should he prepare to set his heart to face the reactions of people at the event tomorrow night.
