My Brother's Substitute Role
Part 11 Avoiding
One week after the incident Azmia always avoided meeting Alby. Early in the morning Azmia had left before Alby woke up, but Azmia did not leave her obligation to keep cooking for Alby for breakfast, if the night Azmia chose to stay in the room.
"Mbok, Azmia's gone?" ask Alby when he gets to the kitchen.
"Already, Den," replied Mbok Asih.
Alby could only breathe out. For a week he had not seen his wife. Every day he had to have his own breakfast like a singles all by himself. '*So busy he is, a*pa he is angry with me, ' Alby's inner self. This time he had no appetite. Alby only saw the menu presented on the dining table and then he chose to go out of the house.

"Mba, coffee latle with the same regular potatoes, yes" Alby told one of the cafe employees. Alby chose the cafe as his destination because in this cafe he used to hang out with his friends. Although it is still fairly early in the morning, but the cafe is open because of the weekend.
"good. Please wait for." The employee walked off Alby's desk.
While waiting for his order, Alby fiddled with his cellphone trying to contact someone to accompany him in the cafe.
"Aziz, let me help you here." Azmia picks up the tray Aziz had held - one of the employees of the love cafe.
"Thank you, Mba Mia," Aziz said, then returned to take another order. While Azmia walked to deliver the order table number five that Aziz had brought.
"Please." Azmia put down a plate of potatoes and one cup of coffee late.
"Azmia" said buyer number five.
Azmia jacked her head. "Mas Alby," he said, then he hurried to get off the table. But just one step Alby held Azmia's wrist. Azmia tries to let go of her hand, but Alby gets tighter and tighter.
"Sit down, I want to talk to you" Alby said in a soft tone.
"Click, Mia. Just sit down for a second. I promise just a minute." Alby looked at Azmia with a pleading gaze for Azmia to speak to him.
Not wanting to find sensation in the cafe, Azmia finally chose to follow Alby's request. Azmia sat in front of Alby.
"Do you work here?" ask Alby.
Azmia nodded in response.
"Why didn't you tell me you worked?" Alby asked back.
"It doesn't matter" Azmia replied.
"You are my wife so you are my responsibility. You don't have to work like this" Alby said.
"I still have a dream to continue my education so I will always try to achieve that dream" Azmia replied.
"I can still afford you" Alby said. Not that he is arrogant, but what Alhy says is true he is the CEO of one of the leading companies, successful young entrepreneurs.
"Mia, don't want to trouble others. Mia would rather try with her own hands" Azmia explained.
"Why are you always avoiding me? Are you angry with me?" Alby started interrogating.
"I don't avoid it just that Mia does a lot of work and Mia isn't angry. Mia has no right to be angry." Azmia as calmly as possible answered every question Alby although in fact he could not bear to cry, he was disappointed with the situation now.
"Sorry Mia has to go back to work again" Azmia said, standing up from her seat to walk into her private room.
