"Did my mother call you?"Gabriela asked after seeing Aris who was silent.
Meanwhile, Aris, the man immediately blinked his eyes when the wife's voice greeted his eardrums.
It seemed that Aris was indeed too busy with his daydreams so he was surprised when Gabriela suddenly spoke.
"What did you ask?"
Gabriela rotated her eyes lazily, "I asked, Did my mother call you?"
Aris nodded her head, " yes, mom just called me and asked where you were."
"What time did my mother call you?"
"Around 8pm last night, what happened?"Aris asked his wife who looked confused.
"Eight o'clock? Then what did you say to my mother. You must have told my mom I wasn't home."
"At 6 o'clock I was at home, actually cooking the food already since we just warmed it up, Mom."
Gabriela's words were spinning again in Aris's head, the man immediately looked at his wife's beautiful face, he smiled and rubbed Gabriela's cheek with one hand that was no longer holding her hand, "you take it easy, I've told Mom if today you come home early to help me prepare for our three-year wedding day celebration." Aris Lies.
The man had just made a mistake with his wife because he had lied about everything he had told his mother-in-law.
Aris did not say the same as what he told his mother-in-law, the man said that Gabriela had not come home because she had a lot of work to finish in the office.
And Aris also said that Gabriela had asked her permission if she came home late today and her mother-in-law also understood that.
But it was very unfortunate when Gabriela told her mother that the woman had been home from work since 6 pm this afternoon.
What the two said was very different and Aris was afraid that her mother-in-law would start to suspect her.
"I'm sorry Gabriela. After this, there may be a problem with what I told my mother. Besides, isn't it time for our parents to find out how our household life has been so that they will understand that you are actually unhappy during your life with me. And may they give us a way out other than parting because I love you so much and don't want to part with you, dear." Said Aris in his heart.
Gabriela smiled with satisfaction when Aris said something more or less the same as what she had said to her mother, this way her mother would not suspect, right?
Her mother would have believed that she actually got home from work sooner to help Aris prepare for their wedding anniversary celebration.
"Good. You're smart." Gabriela said as she moved Aris's hand away from her cheek," the longer I think you're getting smarter at lying to people about our relationship. Before I taught you how to do it yourself. Good, next time you upgrade.'
Aris smiled wryly, " but sometimes I get tired of lying to them."
"If you get tired then divorce me that way you will no longer lie to your parents-"
Aris shook her head, "I don't want to part with you. The man said as he shook his head, "I can't be far from you, La."
Gabriela looked at Aris's lowered head, "Why don't you want to part with me. Haven't you been hurt by our marriage, because I've never treated you well, Ris. So let me go and don't make me a bad woman for never thinking of you as my husband."
Aris lifted her face, "I don't want to part with you because I love you so much, La. Can't you see the sincerity of my love for you?"
Gabriela immediately shook her head, "no. I will never be able to see your sincerity."
"Although you haven't been able to see the sincerity of my love but I'm sure someday you will be able to see it, Dear. Please give me more time until I can make you fall in love with me."
"Is three years not enough to make me fall in love with you, but what proof can you not make me fall in love, Ris."
"Please give me a little more time if I can't make you fall in love then I'll let you go." Aris dropped his head right in the grip of his hand with his wife, every now and then the man kissed the back of his wife's hand affectionately.
Gabriela did not accept or reject Aris's request when the man asked her to give Aris a little time so that Gabirela could fall in love with him, or maybe Gabriela really wanted to give Aris time so that the man could fall in love with her.
Isn't Gabriela's heart only for Rendi?
Or maybe Gabriela really wants to open her heart to Aris, the man who married her for three years?
"Then what else did mom ask you besides asking where I was?"Gabriela asked switching the subject.
Aris raised his face and immediately found his wife who was looking at him, " mom said something to me and I think we should talk about this together so I invited you to dinner together. After we had dinner together we discussed this together. To be honest, I always feel bad for you every time you talk about this."
"What I'm talking about is that you don't feel like every mother is talking about it."
"Heredity." Aris looked at his wife's face seriously," in addition to asking your whereabouts, mother also discussed about us who did not go to be given a baby. It's better we discuss it later because we have to eat first after that I'll tell you, honey."
Gabriela directly threw her face in the other direction, " no. I told you it wasn't that I didn't want to eat before my job was done, Ris."
"La, after we eat I'll help you do all this work so you don't worry if your work won't be finished just because you just eat. Besides, you also need energy to do it if you don't eat where can you finish your job well?"
Gabriela sighed at the sight of Aris who still forced her to have dinner together, doesn't the man know if now Gabriela is not having an appetite but why still insist?
"You'd better have dinner alone when you're done you come back here and we discuss what mom has told you. If we keep arguing like this then we will waste a lot of time while I have to finish my work immediately."
Aris sighed then stood up and slowly let go of his hand grip with the wife, "so you really don't want to have dinner with me?"
Gabriela shook her head quickly, " no. There are more important things I need to get done."
"So that means you're saying that your work is more important than dinner on our wedding anniversary?" Aris asked Gabriela who had just opened her laptop ," is that right, honey?"
Gabriela glanced at Aris through the tail of her eyes, " you judge for yourself, if the celebration of our wedding anniversary is important to me then I won't keep myself busy like this." The woman's Final,"you'd better go, Ris."
