The high steep hills overlooking the Indian Ocean on the south side of the island of Java were an attractive sight for anyone. The green trees combined with the blue sea were no less exotic to be captured in photos. Natural beauty was only one part of this republic to be adored. Not far from the hills, heavy equipment such as tractors and trucks carrying stones have been busy since that morning, even 3 hours before the Siupala University senate meeting started at the hotel 75 kilometres to the north. A middle-aged man stood in the middle of the construction site of a luxury shopping centre that his company was working on. He was busy talking to the rest of the project workers. "How is the development of our project?" the middle-aged man asked. "It's going well, Sir. For the next week, we will focus on levelling the soil and transporting limestone that blocks the building's foundation points," Sarman said, one of the workers.

As the telephone conversation ended, the private driver had finished meeting the receptionist. "How did it go? Is there an empty room?" "Yes, Sir. There are still 10 vacant rooms," the driver replied. "That's it. Immediately book 2 rooms, for you and me. Here's the cash," "Okay, Sir," the driver said. A few minutes later, the middle-aged man and his driver were directed by hotel staff to go to rooms 10A and 10B. All of the middle-aged man's belongings had been moved by the hotel staff from the car to the inn room. "I'm room 10A. You're room 10B," "Okay, Sir," the driver said. By half-past five in the afternoon, the middle-aged man was relaxing in his room, enjoying the facilities provided by the hotel for guests. He was very relieved to hear the news of Dirman's victory as Chair of the Rector Election Committee. "It's a beautiful and fun day. The project continues, winning in the determination of the Chair of th

The automatic portal opened, from what was originally transverse in the way. Dirman's car passed and started to leave the hotel area. The car that Dirman was driving continued to drive at 40 km/hour, nonchalantly along the streets of Malang. The new task was on Dirman’s hand by the time, because choosing the Chancellor of Siupala University for the 2017-2021 period was the committee’s task that he led. However, would Dirman be able to do it fairly? considering the intrigues that surrounded him enough to shackle his freedom. "For the time being, I have to compromise with my in-laws. Let him be the Chancellor again, as long as my position is safe," Dirman thought. "Either way, I hope you can win the Chancellor Election later, my father-in-law. Because I'm sure, Professor Sari and your opponents will not stay still," Dirman thought, while driving. Dirman, who used to be idealistic, had gradually turned into a pragmatist, being carried away by the

"It's okay, Mr. Dirman. It's good. Thank you, sir," Rini said."My pleasure, Rini. You don't need to be shy," Dirman said.It was a fun play on the sofa for a few minutes, made both of them quite tired this time. The night went by so fast. The forbidden intimacy between Dirman and Rini must end soon. The next day the two of them must be returned to their routine work which sometimes felt boring."Mr. Dirman," Rini called while leaning on Dirman's shoulder. Dirman responded to the call affectionately. As if there was no moral limit. Dirman patiently stroked Rini's fragrant hair."You wash your hair every day?"Rini just nodded on that question. Now and then a feeling of drowsiness greeted her."As sleepy as you are. Come on, get ready, and I will take you home, Rini, ""Yes sir. I'm already sleepy. But I still don't want to go home.""Hmm. Do you want to stay here?” Dirman asked with a smile."I will if I’m wi

By half-past 12 that night, Dirman was lying on his bed. He was very tired after spent almost all day focusing on determining the chair for the Rector's election committee. Not to mention, the forbidden deeds he had done with Rini. Strangely, even though Dirman enjoyed the sinful act, his little heart still wondered why he could sin."How could I ever be tempted by Rini?" he said slowly.Moreover, Dirman's regret was slightly visible when he sees photos of his marriage with his wife, Lusi."If my wife finds out what I did earlier, it's an end game," Dirman thought. Not only regret but even Dirman was worried that Rini was pregnant."If Rini gets pregnant, what will happen to my career?" Dirman said, scratching his head.In his constant anxiety, his wife, Lusi, called him."Hello, dear. What’s up?" Dirman asked."Hello, dear. How come you haven't slept yet? I just wanna make sure that you are fine and that you have arrived home,"
