Tears have dried up since a few hours ago. It was almost noon. Signaling that Feby cannot stay silent any longer. She immediately got up from her lying position and rushed to the bathroom. Back to thinking about a plan to survive after the false happiness that had been felt last night.
“See Ares?”
Feby only answered her mother's question with a glance. The mouth did not make a sound. Making the woman who had given birth to her dissatisfied.
“That's what mom said, Feb. Your husband is not a random person.” Finally, the mother concluded so because she saw Feby's

“Tell Ares that the kids and I don't just need his money. We need him.”[You're still being stubborn, Feb. Do I have to repeat my explanation, huh? Mr. Ares is not coming."]Feby sucked in as much air as possible to neutralize the heat in her chest. Then she grabbed her hair slowly and said, “Okay, Ga. I guess it's useless talking to you because you'll never understand.” The conversation over the air was interrupted just like that. Feby nodded while closing her eyes. Start thinking silently about the plan that he will carry out in a moment. For more than half an hour Feby was focused on her gadget. Busy arranging meeting schedules with several people and making money transfer transactions with a fairly large amount.“Feb, do you realize what you're going to do?” asked her mother with an anxious face.Feby mumbled softly while flashing a faint smile. “It's already wet, Mom. So you might as well dive in, right? Ares should know that he's not the only one who

Feby smacked her lips after looking at some of the photos and videos that recorded her digital footprint earlier. Feeling happy and satisfied at the same time because she could run everything according to plan. Now all she had to do was wait for her husband to call her back.“You guys stay here. I need some time alone,” Feby said when the two men in uniform who had been with her for the day began to approach.“Yes, ma'am,” the two replied simultaneously. This is where Feby is now. The southernmost corner table that only showed her. She leaned back as she continued to stare at her phone.“I'll have the lava cake. Then drink...”“Blue mojito.” The voice just now m

“Don't be naughty. Obey your mom and dad.”“Yes,” Haikal replied, nodding slowly. Meanwhile, Kayla was still looking at her brother. Ratih smiled as she rubbed the tops of her two grandchildren's heads. Then she looked up to stare at Angga and several bodyguards already standing there.“Please tell Feby to call me immediately. He must be reminded that there is a parents' meeting on Wednesday. Understand, Angga. Feby is still careless sometimes,” she ordered later.“Yes, ma'am,” Angga replied quickly. “We'll excuse ourselves.” The SUV that had brought the two boys was now slowly disappearing from view. Leaving the yard of Feby's luxurious house in seconds.“Hey, why are you quiet? Did you forget me?” muttered Angga t

Haikal remained where he was. The boy was still waiting patiently for Ares' answer. Until a few seconds later his father was seen letting out a long sigh.“What do you think, hmm?” Ares asked again in a very low voice. “I don't think I need to explain anymore.”“Why are you tempted by mom? That means you're not faithful either. You're not a good man.” The sentence just now made Ares widen his eyes. Again, he did not expect his son's response to be the opposite of what he expected.“Haikal is too young to understand adult problems, son,” Ares said later. His face looked pitiable. However, the boy seemed to remain petrified.“You and Mama are selfish. You never think about me and Kayla. I hate you!”

“ARES?” Again. Feby repeated her call to the man who had just closed the door to her room a few seconds ago. However, all she got was a flat stare in response from the man. Until then the man walked slowly towards Feby. Making the poor woman a little scared.“What's on your mind, hmm?” asked the man who was said to be Mr. Pranata. “Do you love him so much that you are blind and stupid like this?” The statement just now made by Feby confused me. Why would the person in front of her say that? He was... different it turns out. It took her a few seconds to digest the reality.“I-I want to meet Haikal and Kayla,” she said in a slightly stuttered voice.“It won'

Feby shook her head quickly as clear water spilled from the corners of her eyes. The red flag waving from the residence was the answer to the crowd created now. No, she didn't. She was not ready to lose one of her family. Even if she had to, her father would probably be the first to come to mind. That was what was in Feby's mind right now. However, wishes seemed to be inversely proportional to reality.“Eh? Isn't that Feby?”“Yes, yes. Finally came out too after disappearing for almost a week,” whispered another. Then the person walked closer and said in front of Feby, “You still remember to go home. It's already late.”“Yes. Your mother is already gone.” The sentence

“Why is that? You have nothing to think about, Suk.” Feby said that sentence with a big smile. Trying to convince Sukma that nothing would hinder his sister's departure.“Sis?” muttered Sukma while shaking his head slowly.“I don't want to hear anything other than your happy story. So ... go. Please don't make me a bad person again for preventing you from pioneering your future,” said Feby later. The tears of the two siblings broke out. It was hard to let go of each other because they knew that things were no longer the same.“If there is anything, don't hesitate to tell me. I'll help as much as I can,” her aunt said as she was about to say goodbye.“Yes.” Feby nodded quickly. “Thank you, Aunt. Be careful on the road.&rdq

“SANDI?” The person whose name was called only chuckled softly. Inevitably looking at Feby with an annoyed look.“If you want to dive here at your own risk, you will get injured by the rocks there. Come on! I'll take you to the end of the Jasmine River.”“What the hell?” argued Feby while quickly dismissing his hand. “Let go! I don't want to kill myself.”“So what was it called? Rock climbing, huh?” mocked the man while looking at Feby sarcastically. “Everyone there is a witness, Miss. Your feet went up to the bridge railing. Still denying it?”“I-I just...” Feby didn't know what else to say because her mind and heart were in turmoil. Confused about how to continue living. “...hmmm what are you doing here?”“I have some work to do. Unfortunately, I got distracted

Three months later... Feby stood in front of the mirror, wearing a simple yet elegant dress. The sparkling dress reflected the soft light from the window, giving the impression that today was a special day. Although today was not a big day for her, Feby still felt a deep sense of happiness. Rania's marriage stepdaughter, who was like her own biological daughter-had made all the tension that used to surround them turn into tranquility.“Before, it seemed like all the problems were endless,” Feby murmured with a small smile to herself. The dress was perfect, and everything was ready for today's celebration.Feby gasped when she heard footsteps approaching from behind. It was Sandi, her husband. “Are you ready, darling?” she asked softly, standing in the doorway.Feby turned and smiled, looking at Sandi who looked dashing in her suit. “Ready, but I'm
The Hidden Wife 69. PEACEFUL
“SURPRISE!!!”Feby was stunned. In front of her stood Sukma and Zaki, younger siblings whom she had not seen for a long time. Sukma, who is now busy with her work as a civil worker, and Zaki, the last time she heard back from overseas, seemed to be carrying a pile of gifts in their hands. However, what made Feby even more surprised was the two little boys who ran up to him with joyful laughter. Who else if not Haikal and Kayla, her children who have been living with Ares, her ex-husband?“Mama!” squealed Haikal. Their laughter echoed, and instantly Feby's heart melted along with the clear water that pooled in her eyes.Feby smiled fondly, her eyes beginning to heat up with unstoppable tears. “You guys... are you all here?”Sukma nodded, patting her sister's shoulder. “Of course, Sis. It's your birthday today. We won't miss the chance to surprise you.”Zaki smiled mischievously, handing Sukma a bouquet

“Never mind, Ran. Don't listen to your father. He's nonsense,” Feby said quickly. Rania, who had been grumbling, immediately laughed. Especially after seeing her stepmother's red face. She also understood the meaning of her father's words.“Yes, yes. Yes already!” Rania handed over the first aid kit in her hand. “Ma'am, hmm I mean Ms. Feby, uh mama huh? Or -”“Just call me as usual, Ran,” Feby cut in quickly. Her hand gently rubbed Rania's shoulder with affection. “You only have one mother in this world and I won't be able to replace her. So even though I'm your father's wife, but we can still be friends, right?”“Feby, why is that?” protested Sandi who objected.Feby laughed and said, “Is my husband afraid of looking old?”“Honey, ye
The Hidden Wife 67. VIBRATION OF LOVE
Feby swallowed nervously. The night air felt increasingly stifling, despite the cool breeze against her skin. Sandi pulled her closer until their faces were only inches apart.Now Feby's eyes fluttered, unsure of what would happen next. She could feel her husband's warm breath brushing her cheek.“Why call me that, hmm?” whispered Sandi, her eyes sharp yet gentle. “I'm your husband, not 'Om'.”Feby tried to avert her eyes, but couldn't. Their eyes were locked, and she knew Sandi was waiting for her. Waiting for something more than words. Feelings were mixed, between awkwardness, hesitation, and the desire to surrender to this moment.Gently, Sandi rubbed Feby's cheek with her thumb. The touch just now made Feby's heart race, so loud it could be heard. Slowly, Sandi lowered her face even closer, her lips almost touching Feby's lips which were still closed

Rania disconnected the call as soon as she saw someone walking towards her. The girl then chuckled.It was Feby who looked at her with soft eyes. “Rania, I know you're angry. You're disappointed. You have the right to feel that way. But please, give me a chance to talk.”Rania stood still for a moment, staring at Feby with sharp eyes. “Why did you have to marry my father? You know I love you very much, but why did you hide this from me?”Feby swallowed. She knew this would not be an easy conversation. “Rania, I know this is very hard for you. And I... I'm sorry if I made you feel betrayed. Believe in me, I never intended to hurt your feelings. Your father and I... never wanted to hurt you.”Rania averted her eyes, kicking a pebble on the ground with the toe of her shoe. “I never told you. All of this was sudden. I thought we would be a

“Rania, listen to me first,” Sandi said in a trembling voice, trying to dampen the emotion that radiated from her daughter's face.However, Rania only stared at her father with a gaze full of anger and deep disappointment.“Evil!” Rania replied in an explosive tone. Her tears began to flow, but there was no sign of them stopping. “You're all lying! You said we could be a family again, but you married someone else behind my back! The person I've always considered a friend!”Feby took a step back, her heart pierced every time she heard Rania's words. She wanted to explain, but her throat felt clogged. Any words were unlikely to be enough to ease Rania's current anger.“Rania, it's not what you think,” Sandi tried to explain, though she knew it wouldn't be easy. “Your mother and father have been separated for a long time, and I remarried because I loved Feby. But that never changed my love for you.”
The Hidden Wife 64. DIFFICULT
Sandi was silent for a long time staring at her cell phone screen. The call from her ex-wife continued to ring as if demanding an answer. The atmosphere between Sandi and Feby was getting tense, and Feby could feel something was different this time. She held her breath, waiting to see what Sandi would do next.“Pick up.” Feby's voice was low, almost a whisper. Her eyes stared at the cell phone with unconcealed fear. If Sandi answered the call, what would it mean for their relationship?Sandi hesitated. She squeezed her cell phone with increasingly trembling hands. “I...” her voice sounded hesitant, staring at the screen for a moment before she finally made a quick decision. With one decisive movement, Sandi pressed the “decline” button and turned off her phone.Feby breathed a sigh of relief, although her heart was still not completely at ease. &ldq

Feby still stood transfixed, tears streaming down her cheeks. Haikal's blank stare hit her heart harder than anything. In front of her, the son looked terrified, reluctant to come closer. As if he was a ghost from the past that was no longer wanted.“Ares...” Feby mumbled, her voice barely audible, held back by the tightness in her chest. “Talk to our son now. Fix this.”Ares swallowed, then squatted in front of Haikal, holding his son's small shoulders very carefully. “Haikal, listen, I was wrong,” he said, his voice soft but firm. “Mama never left forever. Mama didn't leave you. Everything I said was wrong, I lied.”Haikal frowned, his gaze shifting from Ares to Feby, confused. “But... you said...”“No, I was wrong,” Ares cut in quickly, his voice starting to tremble. “I was just afraid you'd get hu

“Haikal!” Feby shouted with emotion. Something in her wished that at that moment she could hug her son tightly, hoping to wash away all the misunderstandings with one hug.Haikal, who was running happily with a boy earlier, suddenly stopped. The boy's gaze locked on Feby. His little black eyes rounded, but not because he was happy. Instead, there was fear that could not be hidden on his little face.“Haikal, is that mom?” asked his playmate again who immediately turned to Feby with a curious smile.Haikal did not answer. His small body trembled, backing away slowly as if he was about to move away. Meanwhile, Feby walked closer, tears already pooling in her eyes.“Honey...” Feby whispered in a trembling voice. “Mama is here. I miss you, son.”However, when he was about to get closer, Haikal retreated further, his face looking pale. “Mama don't come again!” he shouted suddenly. “She's
