(POV: SENYO)
"Why are you smiling like that, Sen?" Daddy's question broke my daydream.
I still have a stomach ache from what happened yesterday. That was the moment where I tortured Nara to the core. We had just stepped foot into the new house, but I was already overwhelming her.
I ordered Nara to pull the grass in the yard alone. I forced her to clean the toilet, which was infested with rats, sweep the house, and many more jobs that I assigned to her. She did all that himself. Nara was gasping for air from exhaustion. I do not care. My purpose for living with her is so that I have more power to make her give up. We also slept in separate rooms. I only allowed her to use a mat and a pillow as a bed. I didn't even give them a blanket.
"Uh, nothing, Pa." I quickly shook my head in front of Daddy.
It's late afternoon. Currently, my father and I are calculating the cafe's income for the whole month. This place always has a lot of visitors, so the number that comes in is also quite a lot.
When my father and I refocused, suddenly my phone rang. I glanced at the black thing. Clarin's name appeared on it. I immediately resigned myself to Daddy's will.
"Just a minute, Daddy," I said. Daddy does not know who is calling his son.
I sat at one of the empty tables. Quite a distance from Daddy.I don't want him to hear our conversation.
"Hi darling. What is it? " I said to Clarin. Honestly, I really miss that woman.
"I just got home from work. Can you pick me up at the office?"
I always try my best for Clarin. However, since I married Nara, Daddy didn't let me see Clarin again. This clearly makes it difficult for me to do anything for her, including now. Moreover, I was doing direct business with Daddy.
"Honey, I'm with daddy. Okay, you just ride an online vehicle first, okay, I declined softly." I am reluctant to make Clarin hurt.
"I want to be picked up by you. We haven't seen each other in a long time," he said from the other side.
"I promise to see you tonight."
"I can't, Senyo! I want it now. Clarin began to insist. I'm confused myself if it's like this."
"Why are you silent, huh?" She ordered again because he had not received a response from me.
I could already guess that Clarin would get angry if I refused her orders. I let it be quiet for a few moments.
"A-alright. I'm on my way now," I finally said.
Clarin immediately turned off the phone.
I went back to see my dad. A plan ran through my head. I accidentally followed our chat again. After a few minutes, I put my hands on my stomach and squeezed it.
"Arrrgh!" I shouted.
"Hah! Why, Sen?" Daddy pushed back his chair. Follow where my hand is anchored.
"My stomach hurts so badly, Daddy,"
"Wasn't that still fine? What happened?" he asked again. Daddy started to panic.
"Do not know. Maybe because I ate Nara's cooking, which was too spicy this morning. How about we just continue tomorrow? I want to rest at home." I made my face as wrinkled as possible. Daddy will pity me and then give permission.
"Well, that's that then. You just go home and let me continue everything. Meet Nara. She definitely knows how to take care of you."
"Okay, Daddy."
Finally, the sentence I was waiting for came out. After getting Daddy's blessing, I immediately walked towards the parking lot. Only by pretending to be sick can I trick Daddy. I did everything for Clarin.
Unfortunately, the roads are so jammed that I have to open my chest wide. The car can't go fast. I threw my eyes out the window. Many motorists complain about the congested roads.
My cell phone rings again and displays Clarin's name. She must be tired of waiting for me there. I hesitated to lift it, but like it or not, I had to do it too.
"How much longer do I have to wait?" Her voice came before I spoke.
"Honey, be patient. It's jammed here, so I can't get there fast. " I tried to cool Clarin down.
"I do not care. You must be here before five o'clock. "
"Y- yes, honey. I'll be right there," I said as soon as the other vehicles started moving. I immediately hung up the phone.
I don't know what Clarin's purpose was for forcing me there. Even though he can take an online motorcycle taxi instead of having to wait for me for a long time, Maybe Clarin misses me so much.
I stepped on the gas and overtook many vehicles. Until, without realizing it, I almost hit a motorbike that was moving slowly in front of me. For a few seconds, the steering wheel of my car was out of control. Some people swear at me.
Huh.
Luckily, there was no accident.
Again, I drove after the situation returned to normal. I arrived at the office exactly at five in the afternoon. I hope Clarin is still here.
However, I have to swallow a bitter pill this time. From a distance, I saw a woman who was meeting a man in a black coat. Who else but Clarin? I don't know who he's chatting with.
"Claire!" she called me after getting out of the car.
The two humans turned. I immediately followed them into the office yard. Feelings of jealousy suddenly appeared when I saw this charming and charismatic man.
Let's go home, honey! I purposely used the word affection to let the man know that Clarin was my lover.
How surprised I was when, at that moment, Clarin slapped my hand violently. Her lips pursed. She glared at me angrily.
"I'm just going home with my boss. You're taking too long! "
Crack!
It was as if a boulder had hit my chest a thousand times. It turned out that Clarin was with her boss. My jaw hardens. Clarin is absolutely outrageous. I worked so hard to come here that I almost got into an accident. She chose another man instead. Stupidly, I can't resist.
"I got there just in time, honey. Besides, you're still talking here."
"I changed my mind. Come on, you just go home!"
My heart is getting scratched by Clarin's attitude. Never before she had done that. The devastation was getting worse when the man invited Clarin to get into her car.
"Honey, you can't do this to me! I'm your lover," I said pityingly.
Clarin didn't care. She didn't even want to look up.
"Clarin! Come home with me, honey." I knocked on the car window, but Clarin kept her cool.
Was my mistake is big?
I went home with a million disappointments. This time, home is my goal. Actually, I could have returned to the café, but Daddy must be suspicious, because I said that I had a stomach ache.
Arriving at the house, I was immediately presented with the sight of a woman watering the flower garden. She looked at me questioningly. Maybe it's surprising because I don't usually bend my face like this.
"Is the master sick? I will prepare food and medicine, "said Nara. She walked over to me on the couch in the living room.
"Don't bother me, Nara!" I hastily waved my hand. indicating that my wife was leaving right away,
Nara understands. She turned around and left me here. My mood is totally ruined. I lay down on the sofa and covered my eyes with one hand. Not long after that, I felt a thick blanket wrap around my body. I took off both my shoes. You don't have to open your eyes to find out who it is.
"Nara. After what I did to you yesterday, you are still acting well," I said to myself while still keeping my eyes closed.
