Karma Durhaka's Wife
238. Request assistance
Arya knows herself. According to the agreement, they met near the cashier before bringing groceries to the cashier's table to calculate the total amount.
"What item you're looking for is not here" Arya asked as she found out there was nothing Calista bought for herself. "Or are you too bothered to look for a list of groceries I sent you?
"Until you can't find your own stuff?" Arya now feels bad for Calista.
"No. The thing I was looking for was empty. Maybe I'll look for it somewhere else." Calista dodged immediately. He is actually confused about what to buy and fortunately the reason can be digested by Aryan reason.
"Yes already. I'll go pay to the cashier first. Will you come or wait?" ask Arya. He moved the items in Calista's trolley into his own.
"I'll just wait there" Calista replied, pointing to a chair outside the supermarket.
"All right."
Arya had already finished moving the goods and started pushing her trolley towards the cashier, lining up with some other buyers who would also pay for their groceries.
Calista sat waiting while playing her phone. He plans to take Arya to eat before he takes the man home.
Yes, although it is unlikely that Arya will accept his invitation, but it never hurts to try it first.
Calista looks fun surfing on his social network. Seeing some of her friend's posts with their partner showing off their affection with pride, made Calista snort.
Amongst the other friends, only Calista never showed off her lover. Not not want, but they don't have.
Calista once told his friends if he deliberately did not show the lover because they were afraid they would fall in love with his lover.
Of course his friends believe, Calista is a beautiful woman, smart and rich. It is not impossible to have a handsome and handsome lover.
Seeing how Calista rejected the men from the upper class whose good looks need not be doubted, of course they believe.
However, the longer they get curious about the figure of Calista's lover who is always hidden.
Some of them begin to doubt whether Calista really has a lover.
A chat message notification managed to distract Calista from his social media.
Don't forget next week, yeah. Come to my birthday party. I'll send you the invitation in a private chat.
It was a message sent by one of Calista's friends, Karin, in their group chat.
Ready. I won't forget.
Calista replied without hesitation.
The invitation was made especially for those who have lovers. So, you must bring your partner if you want to enter.
The owner sent a message back.
"What?" Calista shrieked softly. "What kind of invitation is this." Calista medengkus annoyed.
Calista did not understand, what kind of rules were made in the invitation.
Well, I can't wait to see Calista's girlfriend.
Me either.
Next week will be a historic night for us. Calista will bring her lover.
Want to hurry next week.
A series of replies from the three other Calista friends made the woman even more upset.
Looks like Karin deliberately made a strange rule in the invitation. Or maybe the four friends were conspiring? Ah, Calista's getting frustrated.
You guys are on purpose, right?
Disgustedly Calista typed in that reply.
I want to have a different birthday party, Calista. I want at the party later the guests really celebrate with their respective partners.
Karin sent a reply.
I'm not coming!
Calista returned with a snorting emoji.
Don't be mad, Calista.
Calista, don't refer.
Calista did not care about the response of his other friends, he was still annoyed by Karin's crazy idea.
When Calista wanted to get out of the conversation in the group chat, a last message appeared and made him even more upset when reading it.
You will regret it if you do not come. I'll make an important announcement at the party later. So, if you don't come, I make sure you won't know that information from anyone.
It was a reply that Karin sent out and further infuriated Calista.
He continued to grumble, swearing Karin. To the point of not being aware of the presence of Arya who was already standing next to him.
"Are you okay, Calista?" arya asked when she saw Calista who was cursing slowly while staring at the phone screen in her hand.
"Ah, yes. Are you done?" Calista was quite jerky.
He then stood up and smiled looking at Arya who was staring in wonder at him.
"Are you okay?" Arya again threw the same question.
"Yes. Come on, I'll take you home." Calista walked first.
Meanwhile, Arya followed behind the woman.
Calista cancels her intention to invite Arya to eat. The message from Karin had already made Calista's mood go bad.
A few minutes later, they were both in the car.
No conversation in the car. Calista who used to always dominate the chat was now just silent.
That thing, made Arya astonished and occasionally glanced at the woman sitting in the chair next to her.
"Are you sure you're okay?"
As a close office friend to the woman, Arya little knows the nature of Calista. The woman was like she was agitated.
"Actually .. not so," replied Calista.
"What's wrong?"
Calista seemed hesitant to say it, but he never stopped telling everything to Arya
Arya laughed at Calista's story. Makes the woman pucker her lips.
"Why did you admit to having a boyfriend? Though actually not," said Arya interrupted his laughter.
"You're infuriating. Instead of providing a solution, instead of laughing at me" Calista annoyed.
"It's better to be honest." Arya gave advice.
"Can't be like that. I'll be the subject of their ridicule."
"Then, what are you going to do? Your friends will understand that you are honest and I am sure you will still be able to go to the party even without a partner. Your theme won't be that nice, Calista."
"It's not that easy" Calista said. "I need your help," he continued.
"Me?" Arya looked at her own face.
"Yes" Calista answered quickly. "I want to replace that meal from you with something else as a thank you that you promised."
"What rock?"
"Follow with me to the party and pretend to be my lover for the night only" Calista said.
"What's? Why should I?" Arya stared for a moment at Calista. Then refocus on the road ahead of him.
"Because you are the closest male friend to me" Calista replied. He tilted his body to face Arya who was focusing on driving.
"I beg you, help me. Just that night and I'm sure only you can do that." Calista clenched his hands together in front of his chest.
