Chapter 8 - Devano's Visit

In the morning Dea had breakfast with Aiden. They ate their food in silence, because Aiden was busy replying to chats on his cellphone, while Dea was busy chewing his food. Aiden hastily finished his breakfast.

"De, I'm leaving, if there's anything, call me, or just tell Bik Asih. Go, Bik, bye De," Aiden said goodbye and walked away.

"Yes sir," replied Bik Asih.

Dee was silent. Bik Asih looked worried to see Dea getting gloomy, even though Dea had nothing to do with Dea. Bik Asih is too worried about Dea. Bik Asih gave the code to her subordinates to get vitamins and some cakes.

Dea was still busy with her food, one of the waiters pushed a trolley filled with various kinds of cakes. Bik Asih served all the cakes in front of Dea.

"Why Bik?" asked Dee.

"All these cakes are for Non, so that the mood will improve," said Bik Asih.

"Oh my God, I don't like sweet things," said Dea.

"Don't want a snack?" asked Mrs. Asih.

"No, I want to go back to my room," Dea refused.

"But Non," said Bik Asih who was confused.

"Bye," he said and walked away. All eyes were on Dea's departure, which was increasingly out of sight.

"Heh, I'm really sorry, Non Dea," said Lina, one of the waiters.

"Yes," said Rara, "just got married, you just left it."

"Shh, don't talk about the employer," warned Mrs. Asih. They immediately locked their lips.

In the room, Dea just stared at him, confused about what to do, looking for activities that would make his real confusion disappear.

Finally he decided to explore his walk in closet. Seeing that there were several sets of swimsuits made him want to swim.

He changed his clothes and put on a kimono towel. He rushed to the swimming pool, when the elevator door opened, he saw Mrs. Asih who was in front of the elevator.

"Miss want to swim?" he said with a smile.

"Yes," answered Dee.

"Is there anything you need, Miss?" asked Mrs. Asih.

"No, stop worrying about me," Dea refused and walked away.

"Hehh...." Bik Asih sighed because Dea ignored her.

"Rara Sinta prepares food and orange juice, Lina Nina, try to find a big pink duck balloon in the back warehouse," said Mrs. Asih.

Dea took off her kimono towel, then warmed up to avoid unwanted things. Before Dea had finished warming up, a group of maids came to her. Some brought a large flamingo-shaped buoy, some snacks and drinks.

Dea ignored them, and went straight into the pool, swimming to and fro. All his servants saw what Dea was doing.

"Non Dea is really pretty, even though she doesn't wear make-up," whispered Lina.

"Yeah, than Wendy, isn't Non Dea superior?" said Nina.

"That's true, but why are you still with Ms. Wendy, even though you are already Non Dea's husband," said Santi. There were four servants there, plus Bik Asih, so there were five.

"I wonder why?" asked Rara, "even though Non Dea-"

"Are you guys thinking what I'm thinking too?" Lina asked.

"Shh..!! You guys really like gossiping," said Bik Asih.

They were silent when they received a warning from Bik Asih. Dea stopped swimming and decided to lie down on the lounge chair. Bik Asih approached Dea,

"Non-"

"Bik, stop worrying about me, I'll tell you if I really need something. Please leave me alone. Don't ask too many questions before my mood gets worse," said Dea.

Bik Asih immediately resigned and invited all the servants to enter the house. Dea looked up at the sky painted with stratus clouds while eating french fries and orange juice.

"A little clumsy huh?" Nina asked as they were walking towards the kitchen.

"It's not clumsy, but it doesn't seem comfortable if we continue to follow it," said Rara.

"Yeah, it's definitely uncomfortable," said Sinta.

On the other hand, Bik Asih is opening the door for guests. Turns out it was Devano, Aiden's best friend.

"Morning Bik, is Aiden here?" said Devano.

"Morning Mas Devano, um, Master is not at home, Mas. But there is Non Dea, Tuan's wife," explained Bik Asih.

"Wife?" Devano said surprised. His eyebrows were raised to the sky, his eyes bulging.

"Yes, sir," replied Mrs. Asih.

"Since when did Aiden have a wife. Aiden is married?" asked Devano in disbelief.

"Yes, Mas, the day after tomorrow the wedding," explained Bik Asih.

"Really?" asked Devan.

"Really, Mas, my goodness, I don't really trust Bibik," said Bik Asih.

"Then where is his wife now?" asked Devan.

"Swimming, Mas," replied Mrs. Asih.

"Can you call she? I'm really curious," said Devano. He couldn't believe that Aiden was married, and with a woman he didn't know at all. That made him even more curious, the name mentioned was also very foreign to his ears.

"Yes, Mas, wait a minute. Please sit down, Mas, I will call Non Dea first," said Bik Asih and then went to Dea.

"Non, there is Mas Devano, a friend, sir. I want to meet Non Dea," explained Bik Asih to Dea.

"Do you really have to, Bik?" asked Dea who was reluctant to meet Devano.

"Mas Devano has been waiting for Non," said Bik Asih.

"Tell me to wait, I want to take a shower first, if you can't wait, tell Bik to go home," Dea replied and went straight to her room.

Bik Asih returned to the living room to approach Devano.

"Non Dea still wants to take a shower, Mas. He said if he couldn't wait, Mas Devano would tell him to go home," explained Bik Asih.

"I'll just wait Bik," answered Devano.

"Yes, Mas, Bibik will make you a drink first, Mas, like usual, right?" asked Mrs. Asih."Yes Bik Asih," answered Devano. Bik Asih hurried away, and Devano was busy with his cellphone.

Devano : Den, I'm at your house.

Aiden: Why? no one at home.

Devano : There is your wife.

Aiden : How do you know?

Devano : Yes.

Aiden: Don't mess around.

Devano : It's up to me. Your wife is beautiful too.

Aiden: How? Go home!

Devano: Oh no! just met too.

Devano chuckled reading Aiden's reply.

Lina serves drinks to Devano.

"Thank you," said Devan.

Several times Aiden called Devano, the fifth phone finally answered by Devano.

"Aren't you coming home!?"

"Just playing too," Devano replied casually.

"Damn, where's Dea?" Aiden asked.

"Taking a bath,"

"What are you doing?" Aiden asked.

"Secret, Bye!" Devano disconnected his phone with Aiden. Aiden is still trying to call Devano and send several messages. Devano just stared at the screen until the call from Aiden did not appear again from his notification.

"What is it?" someone asked Devano, Devano lifted his head to see who it was. Devano was amazed when he saw the woman his eyes sparkled when he saw her, his cellphone suddenly fell. Devon was shocked.

"Ah! I just wanted to say hello. Am I disturbing you?" Devano replied as he took his cellphone."No," replied Dee. Bik Asih approached Dea and served her a drink.

"I'm Devano, Aiden's friend," said Devano and extended his hand to Dea. For a moment Dea saw the outstretched hand,

"Dea," Dea replied and accepted Devano's handshake.

"When did Aiden get married? Why doesn't anyone know," asked Devano.

"Four days ago, um... the wedding only brings family, so I didn't invite anyone else," replied Dea.

"Ohh," Devano responded by nodding his head. He couldn't take his eyes off the woman in front of him.

"Please drink, it will get cold later," said Dea.

"Ah. Yes-yes," replied Devano and hastily drank it, "Aa!" Devano shouted when his tongue touched the hot water in his cup, accidentally spilled coffee on his shirt. Dea was shocked to hear Devano's scream.

"Why?" asked Dee.

"Hot," said Devano.

"Your clothes spilled coffee," said Dea. Aiden hastily grabbed a few sheets of tissue and wiped his clothes.

"Ahaha.. it's okay, it's my own fault for not being careful," Devano replied.

"Bik," called Dea to Mrs. Asih.

"Yes No?" asked Bik Asih approaching Dea.

"Emm.. please find a change of clothes for Devano," said Dea.

"Yes, Non," replied Mrs. Asih.

"Ouch, so bothersome,"

"It's okay," Dean said with a smile.

"Aiden is very lucky," said Devano. Dea furrowed her brows.

"Ah, forget it. Sorry, it's not clear," said Devano.

"Know Aiden since when De?" asked Devan.

"A week ago," replied Dea.

"A week?""Yes," answered Dee.

"Then get married right away?" asked Devano in disbelief. Dee nodded his head.

"How fast," said Devano. Dean just shrugged his shoulders.

Suddenly Aiden came rushing.

"Devano!"

"what?"

"Go home now"

"Well, just talked to Dea," replied Devano.

"What are you doing?" Aiden said, looking annoyed.

"Play Den," answered Devano.

Bik Asih approached Dea.

"This is Non," said Bik Asih. Dea gave the code to hand over the clothes to Devano.

"Devano, it's better to change first," said Dea.

"Ahh yes, wait a minute," said Devano then rushed to the bathroom. Aiden glared at Devano.

Aiden sat beside Dea.

"How long has Devano been here?" Aiden asked.

"a while ago, but not for long," said Dee.

"Hah," Aiden sighed.

"You said come home late?" asked Dee.

"Not so," replied Aiden.

"Why?" asked Dee.

"Wendy is out of town, he has a job," Aiden replied.

"Oh,"

"Are you want to watch the cinema with me tonight? There are two idle tickets," said Aiden.

"Yes," answered Dee.

"Okay, we'll watch tonight," Aiden replied. "Emm De, if our marital status is hidden, what do you think?" asked Aiden carefully.

"Whatever," answered Dea.

"I'm sorry,"

"No problem," replied Dean.

"Um.. after this I want to tell Devano so he doesn't spread the word about our marriage," said Aiden
