After leaving his imprint on my lips that day, Daffin never again appeared before me. He only sent out a few servants that I refused every day.
"I just want to be with Rania, not you!"
Every day the servant's face changed because of the results of my rejection. Actually I rejected them all in the hope that Daffin would bring Rania back and become my friend, but it seems like Daffin is not smart enough to understand what I mean.
"Well, young lady, we'll be back. Don't forget to finish your dinner." said one of the waiters, he bowed respectfully before leaving my house.
These few days, this is what happened. Every meal time, there will be a waiter who will come here and bring me food. I don't know on whose orders, but most likely it was an order from Reena's sister because Daffin wouldn't be that good to me.
Now at the dining table has presented some seafood that is quite evocative of my taste. I was a little confused by the food the servants brought. They always bring me seafood that I really like, as if they know that I really like seafood.
"Forget that first, Ayasya! Now it's time to fill your stomach so your life doesn't get sadder from hunger."
One by one the delicious food moved into my stomach, leaving no scraps. My stomach grew because it was so full. No, but because my pregnancy is starting to show. My stomach has hardened and will be shaped like a balloon in a few months. Ah, imagining it makes me happy and also sad at the same time. Happy because soon I will meet baby, but I am also sad because there will be no husband who will accompany me later.
"Why should you also feel the way I live." I rubbed my stomach which started to feel bad. "Did my bad luck rub off on you, Baby?"
My tears are free. Imagine what will happen to me and my future son. I know very well what it's like to be born without a father, but I promise I won't let my child be born without a mother figure.
"Mommy's here, Baby."

The atmosphere of silence accompanies me every night now, no friends let alone a couple who accompany me. I was also locked up in my own house, unable to get out even if it was just a step.
As usual, I was hungry in the middle of the night. I don't understand what's wrong with my body. Every midnight I would wake up hungry even though I had eaten so much before I went to bed.
With reluctant eyes open, I walked down the stairs to the kitchen. Wishing there was something I could eat, but I forgot I had finished all my dinner and there was no one here but the bodyguard Daffin assigned to watch over me.
"Nobody can calm my stomach."
My fridge was empty, only one chocolate bar was stored there. I don't know when I bought it, I don't remember it either. There was no other choice, chocolate was better than I had to starve all night. Although I had to risk the weight gain that would make me feel like a ball, but it seemed like a pretty good idea to get Daffin away from me.
Unfortunately my fate is right! No food, no money. Actually I have money, a relic of Erlan's brother. It's just, I have to get out of the house to pick it up. I never held my money personally. All my needs are the responsibility of Erlan. And now, again I lament my fate of not being able to do anything without Erlan's brother.
I picked up the chocolate and intended to eat it, but as I was about to open the package I saw a small inscription on the brown packaging.
For my little wife who loves to eat.
Eat this sweet chocolate to make your life sweeter ❤
My mind shimmered, I never seem to put this chocolate in the fridge. It turned out that Erlan's brother prepared it for me, but when was it? Why did I never realize it?
The brown packet was already open and revealed some tempting chocolate. Despite the roar of tears, the delicious chocolate still filled my mouth and left a sweet taste in it.
Unable to remember all the sweet things that ever happened in my life, my legs felt weak until I finally chose to drop myself in front of the refrigerator. My body is leaning there because I don't have a life support right now.
The remaining half-brown was still within my grasp when suddenly someone entered my house. I thought it might be Daffin's bodyguard checking things out, but I was surprised to see the giant figure of Daffin already crouching before me leaning against the fridge.
"Did that chocolate taste so spicy that it made you shed tears like that?" daffin asked with a smile on his masculine face.
I took turns staring at Daffin and the chocolate in my hand. "No."
'Is he drunk? Maybe he entered the house wrong and thought of me as Reena's sister.'
"Daffin?" I called him when we were both sitting on the sofa.
"Help ...."
"Can you hear me?"
"Hemm .. You think I'm deaf?"
I chuckled at the answer. "Not so, I thought maybe your ears were getting water."
Daffin leaned his head against the back of the sofa and closed his eyes, as if he did not care about me. He also did not respond to my words denouncing him.
"Daffin?"
"Help ...."
The answer like that has made me even more curious. I wanted to know if he was drunk or not, but he just let out that strange sound every time I asked.
"Are you okay?"
"Help ...."
"I don't think you're okay, because you just make a hemm-hemm sound. There must be something wrong with your throat."
Daffin opened his eyes in a flash and clucked, but then he closed his eyes again.
'Make me even more curious.'
"Daffin?"
"Help ...."
"Are you drunk?" My finger pricked Daffin's burly arm that was still wrapped in his fancy suit.
"Help ..."
My guess is right, Daffin's drunk. She must have thought this was her home and thought that I was Reena's sister whom she loved.
"Daffin, do you recognize me? Do you know who I am? Look at a -"
"Geez!!!" snapped at Daffin, his eyes opened and looked at me who was still shocked by his reaction.
"YOU ARE MY STARFISH."
