I'm Not a Pay Wife
Forced to Lie
As soon as she came out of the bathroom, Nayla did not see her husband anymore.
‘Pasti mas Reza has returned to his room.’
Then Nayla got dressed and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for her husband. After breakfast was served at the dinner table, Nayla entered her husband's room to prepare her work clothes. Reza was still asleep in his bed. Usually at this hour Reza is bathing but now Reza is still asleep.
Then Nayla stood next to him and was about to wake him up but she suddenly undoes her intention given yesterday's incident when she woke Reza. Reza was immediately angry because he felt surprised and disturbed because he woke his wife. So given the incident Nayla seemed to go back and forth to wake her husband.
Suddenly Reza woke up and looked straight at Nayla. Nayla who saw Reza suddenly opened her eyes immediately shocked and confused while Reza just smiled to see Nayla's reaction like a thief who had a stealing appearance. Her face was instantly flushed red because when Reza opened her eyes Nayla was also looking at Reza's face. Finally Nayla turned her eyes the other way.
“Why are you staring at me like that, is it because I am too handsome so you look at me for a long time,” Reza said in a flat tone.
Actually Reza felt funny to see the reaction of Nayla who seemed very frightened so Reza deliberately spoke like that. Reza was happy to see Nayla's reaction which seemed still very innocent. Reza also feels grateful to have a wife who is still very innocent like Nayla. That means Nayla has never been touched by any man. Very different from Vera who has a lot of experience in terms of making love. Even Reza once had intercourse with Vera and it turns out that Vera is no longer a girl. It made Reza feel so disappointed that for the next days when Vera asked him to do it again Reza had refused on the grounds Reza was afraid to repeat the sin again.
“Later yes Darling if we are married for sure we will repeat the incident again.”
“Why not now Reza.”
“I'm afraid Vera.”
“Fear what Reza?” ask Vera.
“In addition to fear of sin, I fear that later you will become pregnant out of wedlock.”
“If I'm pregnant, we can get married immediately and your papi will immediately approve.”
“Not necessarily Vera, you don't know how hard papi me.”
That's what Reza said to subtly reject Vera's wishes.

Mr. Mahendra who felt like something was wrong so Nayla was not pregnant also intended to take his wife to stay at his son's house.
“Mami, tomorrow we stay at Reza's house?” take Mr. Mahendra to his wife.
“What is Pi, why should we stay there. Shouldn't they stay here.”
“Papi just want us to sleep at our child's house once in a while looking for a new atmosphere.”
“This papi is like a young boy.”
“Nnothing Mi, although the age is old the mind must remain young,” explained Mr. Mahendra.
Hearing her husband's joke, Minar immediately laughed.
“What time do we go there Pi?” ask Minar again.
“We go after magrib but don't tell them first. Papi wants to make a surprise on them.”
Finally, Minar agreed to her husband's wish to stay at his son's house.
***
Done magrib, Mahendra and his wife immediately get ready to go to his son's house.
“What did you bring there?” ask Mr. Mahendra.
“Means Papi bring what?”
“Meanings, Mommy to there bring what food?”
“Neither Pi.”
“We at least go to our son's house bring a hand.”
“What's wrong, mami was confused to bring what fruits.”
“It's up to mommy to me.”
“Or bring papaya to Pi.”
“What Mami is not ashamed to go once in a while to her son's house just bring papaya fruit. At least bring more expensive fruits than papaya.”
“If later mami bring wine or apples fear Nayla's stomach is not used to eating the fruits, Pi then mami bring papaya aja.”
“Why does Mami always insult Nayla.”
“Not that my mom insulted Pi, but what you said was true. Certainly when living with his mother, Nayla rarely eats grapes and apples, most of which he eats only papaya.”
“Why Mami can say that anyway.”.
“Papi will know for themselves that wine or apples are expensive, while we will know for ourselves how their economy.”
Mr. Mahendra who heard his wife always insulted his daughter-in-law felt dislike.
“Ya it's up to Mami. Just papi asking for help, Mami bought fruits that are indeed liked by Nayla. Maghrib we went there.”

After the magrib as usual Reza went out the night. So too with tonight. Nayla always left alone at home, sometimes even until late at night Reza just came home.
As soon as Reza came out of his house, Mahendra's car entered Reza's yard, making Nayla feel astonished. Nayla thinks that the sound of the car is Reza's car coming home again.
‘Why did Reza go home again, indeed what was left behind,’ Inner Nayla.
Then he walked into the living room to open the door. But as soon as the door was opened Nayla was immediately shocked because the one who came was not Reza but her two in-laws.
“Assalamualaikum..” said Mr. Mahendra when he arrived at the door.
“Walaikumussalam..” answered Nayla directly into her in-laws hand.
“Where is Mami, Papi,” Nayla said.
“Alhamdulillah papi and mami healthy. How are you?” Mr. Mahendra asked.
“Alhamdulillah Nayla Healthy Pi. Mami, Papi please come in.” Nayla allows her papi and her mother-in-law to go inside.
Then the papi and her mom entered the house while carrying a medium-sized clothing bag.
“Mari Pi let Nayla just bring her bag.” Nayla immediately took the bag of clothes from the hand of her papi-in-law.
“Papi and Mami want to sleep in your house Nayla,” said Mr. Mahendra.
“Oh yes, thank goodness that Papi and Mami want to stay at our house so our house is crowded.”
“Reza where does not look?” ask Minar.
“Mas Reza is out Mi.”
“Where's he going?” ask Minar again.
“Nayla does not know Mi because Reza mas if asked always say go to his friend's house,” explained Nayla.
“Indeed he often goes out?” ask Mr. Mahendra to know.
Nayla seemed confused as to what to answer. After thinking for a while he finally answered.
“Not too often Pi.”
Nayla felt trembling because she had lied to her in-laws. There was no other choice for her than to lie to her in-laws for the good of her husband.
