#2 - Connecting pendant



✨✨✨


By morning. Carnations faintly heard the voice of a small child calling someone. His eyes were still very heavy, his head was still dizzy. It felt lazy to move his body. Maybe he was just dreaming, he thought.


"Mama ... Mama .. wake up!"


"Pa, wake up mom …!"


The five-year-old girl whined. Agung who heard the whining of his daughter also felt pity. He stood beside Aurora and woke her up.


"Darling, wake!"


This time Carnation frowned. His body feels wiggling. The soft voice was so clear in his hearing. How could a dream be so clear? Carnations slowly opened his eyes. A handsome man and a little girl had been in front of him. The reflex he rewinded his body, pulled the blanket and grasped tightly.


"Who are you!?" screams blaring.


The two people who woke him looked at each other. Carnations widened his eyes.


"Gapain you guys in my room!?" the screams are getting louder.


"Pa .. Mama …!"


The little girl started crying. Agung then knelt down to align his body and appease Aurora.


"Princess .. You go out first. Papa wants to talk to mom."


Aurora nodded, and then came out of her parents' room. The great rose up and went up to the bed. Carnations are still glued to the other corner.


"Lo what do you want!?" shouted again.


"Darling ... calm down, why are you?" tanyanya gently.


Great was getting closer, his hands were trying to grab his wife's body. Suddenly a pillow floated up to his face. When Carnation wants to throw it again with another pillow. Agung brushed him off and immediately ambushed Anyelir's body, clutching his wife from behind. Carnations thrashing for release.


"Take me off! Goddamn bum! Off!"


That shout was extremely deafening the Great eardrum. The hand of the still-free Carnation scratched his face. He was getting more and more confused, why was his wife suddenly so rude like this?


"Anye .. stop .. stop!" then, his voice was very loud. To make Carnation stop the action.


"Darling, you calm down!"


When the hug was released, then Agung felt a pain in his right cheek. Agung hissed, then groped his bloody cheek. Carnations heard him and turned around, they faced each other. He gasped when he saw that the nails on his hands were also bleeding. Without realizing it he had scratched the man's face.


"Sorry!" said Carnations just came out. He looked at his wife's face and smiled. That gentle smile warmed the Carnation.


"That hurts?"


"Of course it hurts. But if my beautiful wife is willing to treat me, I will forgive you with pleasure."


"Wife? Lo who?" ask Anyelir confused. "Gue's not your wife!"


"Darling ... What happened? Youforgett me? You forgot Aurora, our daughter? Why did you sleep on the stairs, hm?"


Carnations are getting confused. He had fallen asleep because he was drunk. Necklace, is it because of that necklace? It's so weird, there's no way Carnations really move to another world, right?


No, this guy might be crazy! Better just follow the current. If there's a chance I'll go, her mind.


"Sorry .. I had a bad dream."


"Huh? Oh my God .. just surprised. Then now you're conscious?!"


Carnation nodded slowly, he did not know what to answer. Quickly the carnations went to avoid the man. He ran to the bathroom without looking back. When he got to the sink, he washed his face and looked at the mirror. He was surprised to see a necklace around his neck. Yeah, that's the necklace she got yesterday. Carnations held the pendant on the necklace, looking fixedly. The pendant was still shining yet not blinking like yesterday, he let.


Just a few steps out of the bathroom, he was wide-eyed. Impossible, a large portrait plastered on the wall. Portrait of her wearing a wedding dress with the man earlier. What is all this? Then Carnation came out of the room. He looked from corner to corner of the house, big and luxurious. He walked up the stairs and looked down. The two people who were with him looked at him. The little boy waved at him, and the man smiled. Slowly the carnations go down one by one rung of stairs. Is this a dream? He pinched his cheek, it hurt. It's impossible if he lost his memory, when did he have a family?


"Mamaaa .. let's have breakfast!" call Aurora cheerful.


Carnations approached them. The man embraced and kissed his temple. Very warm, Carnations until made lulled with that softness. While at the dinner table Carnations are more silent. Sometimes he smiles at the happiness of this family. It was very different from the family he had.

When the night approaches. Carnations lay her body on the bed. Comfortable, much more comfortable than his own bed. This day he followed every activity that this family did. But he was more silent, so that raised questions in the mind of his Husband. The king walked near his wife. Carnation still did not sleep, but he closed his eyes tightly.


"Darling, are you asleep?" ask him who did not get any response. "Huh! You all day why? What the hell are you thinking? You smile, but you don't talk much."


Carnations hear it, but are reluctant to open their eyes. He felt the back of his hand being kissed, then the top of his head being caressed and his forehead being frowned upon. Then Agung slipped his hand to his wife's neck. Support the head of the Carnation to cushion his sturdy arm. At that instant, Carnations heart was beating violently. He had never been treated this softly in his entire life. And they finally fell asleep.
