Married But Alone
Chapter 8

After returning from the Princess' house, she acted as if nothing had happened before.

"Darling, you haven't slept?" said Arkan while putting down his bag

"I can't sleep" replied Dinda

"Sleep yeah, it's night. I take a shower first" walked towards the bathroom

Feeling deeply ignored, Dinda begins to understand Arkan's true nature.

The nature of letting the problem not be solved properly and then assume all that never happened.

Though it piles up in Dinda's mind, which makes her speculate about her already unfaithful husband.

Tired of waiting for her husband to come home, she finally broke down and tilted him towards the wall and curled up covered in a not-so-thick blanket.

"It's been sleeping, it's good" while wiping wet hair with a towel

After finishing the bath, Arkan saw his wife was already asleep and made him relieved.

She heads to the bed and sleeps next to him without him knowing that Dinda is not actually sleeping.

"Why Arkan could, I was waiting for him to come home but he. hemm" he said in his heart.

Dinda cried knowing her husband was avoiding her so she was still in the same position.

It has been almost a week that Arkan has not touched Dinda on the pretext that she is tired from working and often overtime as well.

Feeling her husband change who usually can't control her desire turns cold.

But he still served him well, prepared all his needs well.

She assured herself that her husband was exhausted.

Without her knowing that her husband always goes to the Princess' place for fun. Now the Princess felt the upper hand. She felt that she was the most dear to her than Dinda who had become Arkan's wife.

Even in the office alone Arkan covered his married status.

That belief made the Princess convinced that she must be more prioritized. So he desperately calls Dinda and tells her who he is without Arkan's knowledge.

She keeps Dinda's number while Arkan is asleep next to her.

"How are you?"

"Oh, you know, I'm Arkan's girlfriend's daughter"

"I'm also getting married to Arkan"

Fill in the message Princess sent to Dinda's number.

At that time Dinda was sitting with Arkan because of a holiday.

"What?" Dinda was surprised and stared intently at Arkan

"Obviously, what does that mean?" while showing the contents of the chat

"What else my dear" read the message and flinched

Though previously the Princess agreed to undergo a relationship secretly but why she began to harass Dinda. Arkan confused looking for excuses again and admitted his relationship.

"Honey, I can explain, this is not what you imagine" while thinking about the right reasons

Dinda held back her long-held emotions.

"I'm calling this woman" Dinda called the woman because she didn't accept it

"Don't love" Arkan pulls Dinda's hand and forbids her from contacting Princess

Looks like the Princess has prepared herself that Dinda must have contacted her.

"Hello" is directly connected

"What do you mean? if you dare to meet" said Dinda who was trembling with emotion

"Basically you women don't have hearts, you know Arkan is married but you still want to"

"I don't care, which surely Arkan loves me the same. He married you because he had to"

"So your mouth is, where do you live?"

Arkan immediately grabbed Dinda's phone and closed the phone.

"Darling, baby I can clear it up"

"What mean? you really want to marry her?" still emotional

While arguing, the princess called Arkan.

"I'm glad I picked up the phone for a moment" I was going out of the house

"Wait, answer here" pulled Arkan's hand and asked him to pick up the phone there because Dinda had seen his name

The situation is chaotic, Arkan is angry at the Princess' attitude. I don't know what the two of them are talking about, but Dinda is getting emotional.

After finishing and closing the phone from the Princess immediately Dinda slapped Arkan.

"Slap.." slapped tight

"Yes, yes, you've been lying" clenched his hand and desperately wanted to hit Arkan

"Sweetie I'm sorry, I can explain. He's the one who chased me but I didn't respond to him at all. If I cheated on him, there's no way he'd dare chat you must be we're secretly behind you"

"You must be just saying that, right?" still can't believe it

"She was notoriously naughty in the office, a lot of her gods but I'm not interested at all because I just love you. trust me"

"She said you said you loved her more until you married her. Are you really forced to marry me?"

"I. that's not true, baby, he made it up so I could fight with you"

Dinda stuffed her clothes into the suitcase and Arkan tried to persuade her not to leave.

"Honey, wait you can't go like this" held Dinda's arm

"Please" while putting his clothes in

"Darling I beg you, would you make your parents sad if you go back there in this state? this is a test for us, baby"

Dinda ignores Arkan's words of disappointment and begins to walk to the door.

Arriving at the door, Arkan pulls up and hugs Dinda's leg and prostrates in apology.

"Darling, please excuse me. Don't go! I love you" kissed Dinda's feet and held her tight while crying

Seeing her husband pleading until such a thing made Dinda heart not bear and undo his intention to leave from there.

Then they sit together and Arkan tells her that she has nothing to do with the Princess instead she resists firmly just that the Princess tries to keep teasing Arkan.

"Where does he know my number?"

"That's from me baby, I said that I'm married and can call you let him believe" Arkan gave a reasonable excuse

"So you're right there's nothing with him?" Dinda began to believe

"Dear, you know that I love only you, let alone you are very beautiful and in my eyes there is nothing prettier than you and 1 thing you need to know, I don't want to see another woman out there except with you, my most beautiful wife" kissing Dinda's cheek

"Please give me a chance to mend our relationship and end this misunderstanding dear" touched Dinda's hand and grabbed it

"Alright, but I don't want anything like this anymore and I don't want you to be in touch with him"

"Yes I promise you dear, thank you" hugged his wife tightly

Giving the opportunity to improve their marriage relationship that has not been long is probably the best step that Dinda believes and even that is because Dinda trusts her husband very much.
