My wife's a fraud
Change of Plan

“Nih, I brought you a change of clothes so you can take a shower and not smell of dead rats. Adrian said hello and he said sorry about your wife. She really does not know that your wife's pregnancy is news that you have never heard and will result in kayak gini,” Aditya said when visiting Gita at the hospital.

Arki just stared coldly at Aditya without a word. Adrian is negligent in watching his people. Especially to really leak the condition of the Gita to Basuki. Regrets still gathered in his heart.

“Send him to apologize for himself. Don't talk through you!” reply Arki upset.

“Ck! Do not exaggerate things like this. Adrian is really sorry and he will return Basuki's treatment to your wife. You know for yourself how she looks?”

“See my wife's condition how?!” arki said pointing at Gita who was lying on her bed. “If he's really sorry. At least speak directly and apologize properly.”

“Iya, yes. Later I say deh same stiff man rich kanebo dry.”

Arki snorts then sits on the sofa with Aditya. He does understand Adrian did not do this because it was intentional. Maybe because until now Arki still did not accept what happened to the Gita. Wanting to vent his anger on someone, despite knowing that Adrian and Aditya are not the right people for this. Wash the one who should receive all the scolding and vengeance.

“I know you're not here just to visit, right? Wh why? Arya knew I was going to see my wife?” ask Arki.

“Ngak. We changed plans. We do what we agree on faster. You can also focus on your wife here for some time. Now Adrian is again trying to make Arya sign the will. Soon the old man will be powerless. Paralyzed and have no access to his subordinates.”

“Meanway? Have you done that with Arya?” arki was confused.

Aditya pulled out a small bottle. Showing the thing he held in his hand to Arki. One look, Arki knew right away that the small bottle he was holding was one of those dangerous, arsenic-poison items that could have cost their father their lives.

“Arya has drunk that? How is he doing now? He already..” said Arki stopped those words in the air. Despite the heartlessness, her other heart cheered when she knew Arya was soon gone.

“Udah is being given anyway. But not directly die. We plan to do it slowly because it is too risky if Arya suddenly falls and dies.”

“Be careful. If he feels sick, it will be even more dangerous for us. He can contact his personal doctor. Doctor Suroto. Inget Arya who is it? He had a reliable doctor, the largest donor of several private hospitals and funded the education of dozens of young doctors. If his death was unnatural, all those people would be suspicious. There was no Basuki beside him. Strengthening the ugly allegations about the three of us in the eyes of colleagues and close friends.” Arki tried to think rationally.

“We've rethought that possibility. But Doctor Suroto will not be able to be contacted because Adrian has leaked about the corruption case he and his son in the hospital where they work. Today he would definitely not want to communicate with anyone or receive a call. So we've prepared a replacement doctor that Adrian might be able to persuade. Falsifying Aryan's illness and death. We should not choose a doctor carelessly because Arya is very close to people from the profession. Wrong-wrong, we're the ones to suspect.”

“Who are you cooperating with?”

“Doctor Nabila, wife-to-be Adrian. We're not in a hurry to eliminate Arya, slowly. Let him fall slowly and helplessly. We should enjoy this revenge together." Aditya smiled with satisfaction.

...****************...

Arya was lying on her bed. His head was throbbing pain and his heart was pounding irregularly all day. His leg muscles are cramped and he often feels tingling. He is one of the healthiest men at his age who is not young.

He tries to contact his close friend, Doctor Suroto to check on him who suddenly feels unwell. However, the man did not answer his call. Not even connected at all.

In fact, Arya saw a shocking headline when watching television, Suroto's face was clearly displayed in the latest news. About the corruption case that emerged this morning. Suroto and her eldest son, Niko, are involved in a case of embezzlement of hospital money and the procurement of low-quality medical equipment.

When Adrian called her last afternoon and asked her about her willingness to come to Salma's house for dinner, she finally said that all day was not feeling well. Adrian immediately brought Nabila home to check. Arya has not been so confident in the ability of Nabila who has just graduated and said the doctor's oath, compared to Suroto—ayah Nabila—she is still an onion.

“How is your father? He did not want to receive my call to check for a moment,” Arya said when Nabila checked the tension.

Nabila just smiled at a glance. Embarrassed and overwhelmed by the news that circulated this morning about his father. She is indeed not that close to her father, only Niko is considered proud for both parents. Even though Nabila has taken the painful path of becoming a doctor and agreed to be betrothed to Adrian to boast of his father, it turns out that he is still not considered as brilliant and useful as Niko.

“Dad doesn't want to get out of his office. I don't know what the condition is,” replied Nabila slowly.

Some of his heart hated his father. But some are sympathetic, angry, fearful and ashamed. This case is not only dragging his father and brother, it is likely also himself. Nabila too confused now must how.

“Say your father. Tell him to come and I can help you get it done. We'll be family soon, right?” said Arya smiling soothingly at Nabila.

After saying goodbye, Nabila came out of Arya's room and found Adrian sitting in the living room. The man was busy sending messages on his cellphone until he was unaware Nabila was sitting in front of him. Noticing.

Nabila smiled a little at Adrian. When her father first said he would match her with one of the Wibisana children, Nabila refused. He often heard how wild they were among the conglomerate families. Handsome, established, attractive. But their behavior is not like Arya. But only then did Nabila know, people who are often the material of such gossip is Arki and Aditya, not Adrian.

Adrian is even better known as a male ketus and difficult to approach. When they first met, he was very stiff and unpleasant. However, Adrian still tried desperately to keep making an arranged marriage with him. Then honestly saying that all he did was just want to make Arya proud. Just like Nabila did.

From then on, they promised to run it slowly. Friends and know each other. Open up and find each other's similarities.

Whether since when, the stiff and the prestige for this feeling affair occupies the heart of Nabila so deeply. He likes men who confuse like Adrian. Although until now, Nabila does not know if all the attention done by Adrian is still about his obedience to Arya or because he really loves her.

“Udah finished? How is dad?” said Adrian who finally looked up from the phone and looked at Nabila.

“I suspect your father ate something wrong or poisoned something. Tomorrow I schedule an ECG examination at the hospital,” replied Nabila.

“I want to talk and offer something to you,” Adrian said with a flat face that looks more serious than usual.

“What's the problem?” ask Nabila confused.

“On the condition of our father. I can help your father escape corruption charges, but you have to help me. also”

“How to help kayak?”

“Create fake health report for Arya.”

...****************...

Gita heard voices next to her bed. Getting to know one of them, a deep and soothing voice as he always longed for. He spoke to a woman who was now busy explaining about wounds, bandages, bumps, re-examination, and other things he did not understand. Then the sound of shoes gradually moved away, accompanied by the door closing. The room is back.

“Gita,” call a male voice next to her ear.

Everything felt so faint and sounded like a dream. However, Arki's voice instantly keeps Gita awake. He opened both of his eyes, although one of them could not open perfectly due to the swelling. His body was limp as if it was exhausted like a wet cloth and suddenly pain attacked him everywhere. Gita frowned, feeling a burst of pain all over her body when she woke up. He cried suddenly, as his head was throbbing violently.

His hand touched the aching head, bandages bandaged there. Hoses stuck in his hands. With bruises everywhere. Gita then recalled the events that suddenly crossed her mind. Basuki, beat him all out. The crying became more so.

“Git, relax! It'sit's okay. Now you're okay. Don't be afraid!” said that voice again.

Gita looked directly next to him. Seeing Arki standing with a worried look. He must be crazy. This pain made him insane. The crying and sobbing are getting more and more echoing. Until finally Arki hugged Gita who looks so shocked and frightened.

“Gita, already. Now you are safe,” said Arki again still trying to calm down.

“Risa, I'm not sane! I keep seeing Arki everywhere,” crying Gita. He once told many nightmares and shadows of Arki who continued to mill around his stepbrother.

“You're still sane, Git. I'm right here. I'm really here,” said Arki reassured Gita.

Arki was confused by what had happened. Why could the Gita think that she was insane just by looking at Arki?

“Lying! Arki can't be here! He's dumped me and happy with his new wife!” yelled Gita hysterically.

Now he is so confused, why is the shadow of Arki so real that it can be grasped like this?
