Chapter 55 - New Life

Rere came out of the bathroom feeling irritated. After Dino kissed her forcefully. The man was just sleeping. Rere was furious that Dino broke their agreement. 

What a liar!!!! He had broken their agreement. Rere looked at Dino annoyed. Rere was furious that Dino had dared to kiss her. She hasn't kissed in a long time. It feels very different and thrilling. Rere is aware that Dino is her husband but she can't do physical touch yet. It still takes time to accept the man as her husband.

Rere got even more annoyed when she saw the lingeries in the closet. The closet is only filled with lingeries and cosplays. Rere knows who did this. She took her phone and called Tia.

"Why did you call me?" Tia immediately asked before Rere states her intention.

"You are the one to do this, right?'

"Do what?"

"What do you think?"

"Explain it to me then. I don't understand what you're talking about. Why did you start to get angry after spending your wedding night?"

"Where are my clothes? There's only lingerie in the closet." Rere sourly looked at various lingerie. She grit her teeth, contain her anger. The cosplay clothes that she sees in the wardrobe are similar to JAV video that always made her stroke her chest.

"They were great, right? Isn't that what you need? Aren't all the newlyweds like to wear lingerie. but it doesn't matter because you won't be going to wear that for long." Tia even teases Rere.

"Nur Fristia Hayati. Don't make me angry." Rere's voice started to getting higher for a few octaves. She felt betrayed.

"Oh my, I am so scared." Tia teased her, try to exaggerate her voice.

"Bring my clothes to the room, right now!."

"Lingerie is the right clothes, just wear it in front of your husband. It will be a merit."

"Tia, don't provoke my anger. You know the reason I married Mas Dino."

"Oh my…. did you just call him, Mas Dino?" Tia keeps teasing Rere.

"Is it wrong to call him mas? He is older than me. We have 14 years gap. It's not polite to call him Dino or you. People will mock me as an impolite wife."

"Oh my, have you embrace your status as a wife?"

"Geez. Why did you like to tease me? Just please bring me some clothes. I'm only wearing a kimono towel."

"It's okay."

"Tia," Rere screamed in frustration.

Tia takes the phone away from her ear. Rere's screams can hurt her ears. Tia laughed in satisfaction after she managed to tease Rere. The lingeries and JAV cosplay clothes are Dila's ideas. She doesn't know why the mother of three had such an idea. Tia was sure if it was Bara's idea. Dila is not that naughty unless Bara taught her to do so.

Rere turned around. She was surprised because Dino was standing in front of him with his hands on his hips.

"Why did you startle me?"

"You're making a fuss."

"How can I keep my calm, mas? Look at this." Rere showed some lingerie and cosplay costumes.

Dino tried to hold back his laughter so Rere wouldn't get angrier. Rere's emotions are explosive and unstable. Dino was sure that this was Bara or Tia's idea.

"It is a trivial matter. Why make a fuss?"

"Trivial?" Rere's breath hitched when she heard Dino retort. For Rere this is a big matter. Dino could have pounced on him while she is wearing one of the lingerie. Rere realized that Dino was a grown man who was longing for a woman's touch. Men are like cats. They will eat if someone gives them salted fish.

"Yes." Dino even nodded. He wanted to provoke Rere's reaction.

"You perverted man."

"Me? a pervert man?" Dino pointed at himself.

"You were happy to see my sexy looks, right?"

"Every husband will be happy to see their wives look sexy," Dino answered carelessly. The man looking at Rere lazily from head to toe. Somehow Dino's mind drifted. He was sure that behind the towel Rere had not to wear anything. Dino erases the thought of making Rere his fantasy. The kiss gives him a tremendous effect.

"What a flirt."

"I am wrong again?"

"You are. Why is everything look like this?"

"Look like how? Can you explain it?"

"Whatever, I'm too tired to fight."

"I'm not asking you to make a fuss. You're the one who's angry for no reason."

"How can I not be angry? My only clothes are lingeries and this goddamn shirt, mas," Rere hysterically threw the clothes on the floor. She feels that the veins on her neck tightened from screaming.

"Stop shouting. People will make the wrong assumption about us."

"Why?"

"They will suspect that we are making out and say that I'm a sucker for not being able to do it slowly."

"Mas." Rere was annoyed and then pinched Dino's strong arm.

"It hurts Ree. You are too rude for a girl."

"You are annoying."

"No, I am not, You are! Stop making a fuss." Dino stops talking, not wanting to continue their debate. "Just wear my clothes. I have decent clothes, that can cover your skin, unlike that lingerie." Dino opened the wardrobe and gave a set of clothes to Rere.

Rere was silent as Dino handed her his clothes. The woman didn't even take the clothes from Dino's hands. She felt like she will lose her pride if she wears Dino's clothes. People say that if a woman wears a man's clothes, the woman will love the man. Rere believes such a myth that she doesn't want to wear Dino's clothes.

"It's okay If you don't want to use it. Just wear your lingerie. Don't blame me if in the middle of the night I eat you like a cat eats salted fish." Dino gave an ultimatum.

Rere snatched the clothes from Dino's hands. Dino's threat made her shudder. The woman rushed to the bathroom to change her clothes.

The room was pitch black when Rere came out of the bathroom. She was sure that it was Dino who turned off the light. Rere was annoyed because Dino was already sleeping on the bed. If Dino had slept first, where she Re sleep?

Rere turned on the light. Dino suddenly woke up. The man cannot sleep if the light is on.

"Why Re?" Dino rubbed his eyes.

"Why did you sleep earlier?"

Dino scratched his head, "The did you want to sleep together then?."

"Stop dreaming."

"Then?"

"If you sleep in the bed. Where should I sleep?"

"The bed is big. We can share."

"I don't want to sleep with you, Mas."

"Why?"

"I'm afraid you'll eat me."

"What kind of eating are you refer to?" Dino teases Rere. He doesn't know why but he feels that Rere is so cute when she is angry.

"Don't pretend to be innocent. You're an adult, right?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't act stupid."

"I'm not pretending. Maybe I'm really an idiot."

"Don't make me angry, mas."

"Do not be angry. You will have high blood pressure."

"Did you just curse me to be sick?"

"So, I was wrong again," Dino said as he turned his face away. He is always wrong in front of Rere.

"You always say the wrong thing, mas."

"Yeah, I'm sorry if I made you angry." Dino chose to give in. He would never win whenever he bickers with women. That's the power of a mother. You will be dead if you resist!

"I take the bed and you sleep on the sofa."

"Sorry, I don't want to." Dino put on a sweet smile and started to lay on the bed.

"I know you want to flirt with me by sleep in the same bed with me."

"Why are you so confident? Flirt? Why should I? We are husband and wife. If I want to, I can ask for my rights as a husband. Like it or not, I can 'MAKE LOVE' to you." Dino emphasized the words  'MAKE LOVE'.

"Stop messing around, Mas. Remember our new law. A husband can go to jail if he forces his wife to have sex."

"It doesn't matter. I am a Malaysian citizen, not Indonesian." Dino even stuck out his tongue.

"Ugh..." Rere was annoyed that Dino was able to counter ger threat easily. She stomped her foot on the floor in annoyance.

"Why are you angry?" Dino smiled. The man started to tease Rere.

Seeing the man smile made Rere's anger reach another level. Rere was afraid that Dino's smile would make her diabetic. Rere realized that her husband was very handsome and charming. Although he was a 39 years old man, the man looks like she just 29 years old.

"My smile is very sweet, right?"

"you are so arrogant."

Rere was forced to sleep next to Dino. They made a wall using the pillows. Their pillows are stacked very high. Until they couldn't see each other before Dino turned off the light.
