(POV NARA)
"Don't worry, Nara. We deliberately kidnapped you so that your departure failed. Now, call my husband using your number, then tell him that you are at your mother's house for a week!"
I was really surprised when I saw Mrs. Runi present in front of me after several men managed to take me to an empty house. I had thought that I had really been kidnapped. Apparently the person closest to me was the mastermind.
Why do you have to be so desperate to do something like this just because you don't want our departure to happen? In fact, to be honest I didn't want to be in a country with only two people with Senyo.
Mrs Runi had been waiting long before I got there. I don't know where she got those three men to kidnap me.
Mr. Johan was disappointed and asked me to return home. However, he also could not do much. Maybe because I brought Mother's name.
I've been in captivity for a whole week and Senyo hasn't seen me at all. There was no way he didn't know about this matter.
Lucky, because they did not harm me. I was fed three times a day. They also took strict precautions so I wouldn't run away. And now it's time for me to come out. Now I'm back in the same car. Then I was dropped off at Jln. Durian.
"There, go home alone!" said the dark man. He opened the car door and pushed me away.
For the last time I looked at their faces one by one, then continued on my way. My body is very sticky and smells bad, because I never shower and change clothes. Madame Runi and Senyo are really going too far.
I arrived home after a 15 minute walk. When I opened the door, I saw the figure of Senyo was pensive in front of the television that was on. I hastily ran towards him. Turn off the TV and start making calculations.
"What else will you do for me?" I was standing right in front of him.
Senyo doesn't seem to feel my presence. Even after the television was off, he still looked straight ahead.
"Sir!" I called again. I don't know where my courage came from. Maybe my mind was too tired to be tortured by it.
A few moments later, only then did Senyo turn his head. He looked at me blankly, as if he had no zest for life. Oh, I know. Senyo was only acting so I wouldn't hold him accountable.
"Master, this is too much! I'm not a bird that can be locked up for days without a bath," I said. It's not enough to grumble at Senyo yet.
"You're home? Who are you here with?" The question annoys me even more. Did he think I was on vacation for a whole week?
Senyo straightened himself. His nostrils flared. I could tell that he was smelling the stench of my body.
"Why did Master kidnap me?"
"Who kidnapped you? I am not doing anything,"
"Master didn't do it, but Master ordered someone else to do it,"
I kept myself straight in front of Senyo. I feel there is something strange with my husband. His face was grim. I guess he was carrying a load.
"I don't care about your situation, but you have to promise not to tell Papa about this. You know the consequences if you disobey your husband." Senyo gave me an ultimatum.
"Sir. Can you understand me a little bit?" I aimed at Senyo with an irritated look.
"Nara, don't look for trouble. I don't want to fuss with you."
"The master who has created this trouble. How could a husband have the heart to kidnap his own wife?" I thought that Runi had a mental breakdown. He really doesn't understand how to respect a woman.
Runi looked back at me expressionlessly. I'm having a hard time understanding what it means right now. It seems quieter. This happened to me before the kidnapping tragedy.
"Master, I am talking to you. Haven't you thought about my fate there? Don't you know that I'm always cold? Are you hating too much-"
"Nara, be quiet! Clarin is pregnant and I don't know what to do."
"WHAT?!"
Srrr…
I spontaneously fell silent hearing Senyo's words. To the point where I slapped myself on the cheek to know if this was real or just a dream.
Senyo's breath caught. Nettra cynically looked at me. I saw a pair of hands clenched at the sides of the thighs. My guess was right that Senyo was in trouble.
"Why did Clarin get pregnant?" A question just slipped out of my mouth.
Senyo huffed in annoyance. I just realized that my question is a stupid question. How can a woman get pregnant if no one interferes with her?
I can conclude that Senyo and Clarin often have an illicit relationship.
"Does Madame Runi know about this?" I chose to sit next to Senyo. Forget our problems for a moment.
Senyo shook his head. One leg was raised on the sofa.
"You know what, Nara? Clarin asked me to marry her," said Senyo while facing me.
After Senyo's words, I immediately put my palms on my chest. Since when did this heaviness appear? Like there is steel on the surface.
"How did you respond, sir?" I asked curiously.
"I do not know,"
I don't know since when and where they had this forbidden relationship. Suddenly I feel lost because I have married a man who is not a virgin.
"Nara, what do you think if I marry Clarin in a serial manner? After all, the child in her womb is my flesh and blood." Senyo squeezed a pair of my shoulders.
I don't understand this feeling. Why do I suddenly dislike their actions? I shouldn't care if Senyo gets mixed up with any woman, even to the point of having children.
"How irresponsible, sir, to ignore an innocent baby," I replied.
Senyo let go of his grip. His eyes were rolling with joy. Looks like he's weighing something.
"Can you keep your mouth shut if I marry Clarin?"
I'm nothing but a confidant to Senyo. Someone he stopped by when he was hit by a storm. Maybe this is my function as an unwanted wife.
"Shut up from the Master's family?"
"Yeah, from who else?"
"If it's for the best and makes the baby have a father figure, then I will," "Really?" Senyo's eyes lit up. "Yes, but I have one condition," "What?" "Allow me to take cooking lessons so that one day I can build a culinary stall," A week ago I saw a lot of women sign up for a cooking class at a newly opened place. "That's an easy matter. deals?" Senyo reached out. I immediately shook the hand. This is the first time we have physically touched each other. Senyo breathed a sigh of relief. While I'm pulling deep. Even though I got what I wanted, there was still a big rock lodged in my chest. I also don't know what caused it. "Okay, Nara. Then I want to meet Clarin to share this news." Senyo jumped off the couch and ran into the room. As a result, we no longer discuss the issue of kidnapping. I immediately entered the room after Senyo left. He was so in love with Clarin that he was willing to sacrifice his own life. While I'm his legal wife, let alone fight for it, just being fed everyday is already grateful. The next day I went straight to the cooking course that had just opened. When I was about to enter, suddenly my body was bumped into by a woman with curly hair. We were both surprised when we glanced at each other. Don't know why that girl is here. "Mother?" It was none other than Mrs. Rondo. My neighbor in the village.
