Because of the compulsion

A Test?

"Zahrah!" Marshal threw out his hand quickly. His anger was mounting at the attitude of his wife. "What do you really want?!"

Viona was silent. Glanced around in annoyance. "We go home first, it's not good to talk here."

Marshal did not care about the rising emotions. "Why did you talk to her like that? What do you think our marriage is, huh? Why are you even saying that to other men?!"

Exhaling violently, Viona scratched her non-itchy head in annoyance. They were still in the corridor of the hospital, but Marshal was still screaming. Before the security guards come to expel them, Viona must be able to take the Marshal away as soon as possible. There was no need for a commotion just because of her husband's anger. However, just as he was about to invite her to leave, Marshal already exuded an aura of his cruelty making Viona undo her intention to pull back Marshal's hand.

Closing her eyes for a moment, Viona returned an angry look from her husband. She should look calm, as she does not want to be ignited by her husband's current emotions. "Can we talk somewhere else? I don't want to leave because I'm being evicted by the security guard here."

"What do you really want, huh?!"

Viona clucked in annoyance. Returning his steps to immediately leave from there. The marshal caught up to him quickly and pulled his hands rough. Viona turned around, looking at her husband sharply. "I told you, we talked somewhere else. It's a hospital, you're troublemaking here?"

Forced Marshal to obey and pull Viona's hand quickly towards the parking lot. His wife remained silent until they got into the car.

"Explain everything to me!"

Viona glanced at the Marshal with raised eyebrows. "What should be explained?" ask her flatly.

"ZAHRA!" Marshal growled, the sharper he looked at his wife who he just found out, it turned out to have a disturbing nature. It was great that Viona ignited the flames of her emotions. "Why did you say that to her? Explain to me!"

Viona threw her face towards the window. Releasing his breath slowly, trying hard to ignore the gaze of Marshal who increasingly intimidate him. "Why did I explain it, you must have heard it all." He looked towards Marshal. "Since the beginning you did eavesdrop on our conversation, right? That means you also heard whatever I said to Joints. Do I need to be clear again?"

Marshal. Why would Viona know if she eavesdropped in the first place? Marshal had wanted to see Arga, his intention was to undo because he did not want his wife alone with Jendi.

Viona smiled disdainfully. She knows how her husband is. Marshal would definitely never be able to let Viona be free just like that. And it was proven, Marshal only pretended to allow him to talk to Joints even though he himself was still eavesdropping behind the door. Viona was convinced of that, because she had a glimpse of the small rectangular glass that was at the top of the Joints' room's dormitory door, Marshal's body was seen slightly there.

Silence is created long enough. There was no sound coming out of her mouth, yet she kept a sharp look at Viona. Marshal reached for his wife's hand which was on his lap. He squeezed it slowly, channeling emotions that were so felt to supply the atmosphere in the car. Rio, who had just been silent in the driver's seat, was only silent and listening to their debate.

Viona glanced at him. Removing Marshal's hand from his hand in annoyance. "I hate my husband. You're selfish, you're grumpy, you're annoying, you're forced, you're always on your toes, you're constrained, and you never understand what I want."

Marshal was afraid to hear it. Is that as bad as the Marshal in Viona's eyes? Does his wife hate him for that?

"I want to come back as you're full of thought, Chal." Viona turned her seat over to squarely face the silent Marshal. The car is still in the hospital parking lot, as Marshal has not ordered Rio to drive it forward. "At first I thought, for my parents' sake our marriage can still be maintained. It can still be fixed on the grounds that my parents do not continue to apologize and regret marrying me to a man like you. I also initially thought, You can improve your attitude. But, it turns out I was wrong."

Silence listened and again she had to guess where Viona was going. What did he mean, and what was the mind of his wife? Everything would be answered if he relented to listen. Sometimes what Viona said, would go into her heart and stab her in the final sentence. Ready to be unprepared, he must listen with various thoughts that Viona will speak.

"Marshal is still a Marshal," Viona continued, "remains a restraint that has always been prohibitive. Even to visit Joints only, you do not allow. Just now, you even eavesdropped on my conversation with Joints. That means you don't trust me, do you? Is that what you call love? No, Chal." Viona shook her head slowly. "Love is not like that. I told you, think carefully. Are you right to love me or just obsess. I don't want to keep this marriage any longer, if I have to live it with someone who's just obsessed."

The Marshal's sharp gaze began to soften into a full of curiosity. He has yet to find where the port will be the end point of Viona's speech. "What does this have to do with what you said to the man? I'm asking you to explain everything clearly for what you said to him earlier, not even discussing the matter last night."

In his deep breath, Viona looked so serious. "That's why I said that. At first I did think like that, if I get divorced, there are still Joints that want to marry me."

Again the emotions of Marshal peaked. He wanted to stuff his wife's brazen mouth. Viona could think like that. "Are you crazy? I didn't expect my wife to be so dirty. Don't expect you to marry him! You're my wife, Zahra! I'll never let you go!"

Viona shifted her body as the Marshal was about to grab her body. Actually, Viona's courage is not as big as it seems, only she continues to show the courage to face her husband's attitude. Marshal was too selfish, if not reminded of such a fight, he would never be able to change.

"Don't you ever think like that again! You still have a husband, Zahra, why do you have to say dirty like that in front of other men?!"

"Because I'm not sure I'm sticking with you," Viona quickly argued, "you're still dubious. I'm not comfortable living with you, Chal. You showed me the change in front of me. Sweeter and more willing to do it now, but I know it's just a charade, right? You just want to tear me down so you can hold it back?"

Marshal was stunned to hear it. Viona said it was filled with confidence, was the attitude of the Marshal too obvious until Viona could catch him?

"I was originally thinking of getting a divorce and going back to Joints to start a new life, but again I was hesitant. I keep thinking about my parents' feelings. They must still feel guilty if I get divorced from you. Even though I will live happily with Joints, their guilt must remain because the trail of my failure in marriage will continue to be remembered. I failed to marry you, the man they married me."

Staring at Marshal fixedly, Viona held onto her husband's shoulder and gripped him tightly. "You know what, from yesterday I was testing you?" Marshal frowned confusedly.
