Bound Marriage Contract
CHAPTER 22
Arriving at the house Alex did not go directly to his bedroom. Alex walks into Keyla's room. It felt like hugging his body inhaling the scent of the woman.
Tok
Alex is still waiting for Keyla to open the door for him. Please hope the woman has not slept.
15 Minutes waiting, no movement. Alex pushed himself to open the door.
"Are you asleep." Whisper Alex
There's no answer.
Keyla did not answer because she was asleep. Alex kept staring at Keyla's face.
"I'm sorry that it hurts you so much." Alex gently brushed Keyla's cheek, hoping that the woman would not be carried away from her sleep.
A feeling filled Alex's heart with a smile that never escaped his lips. Alex can't lie to her that now she wants Keyla so badly.
"How could I let you go, whereas when I was beside you I felt only my whole life was more purposeful. You are now like the goal of my life." Alex was only able to speak in his heart. Now Alex has slipped into Keyla's blanket by hugging her from behind.
"Alex please let me go."
Hearing what came out of Keyla Alex's mouth wasn't letting Keyla go. He even tightened his embrace. "I'm wrong to hug my own wife."
"I thought you were asleep, so I didn't wake you up again." Alex doesn't care about his wife's request.
"Please let me go Alex, aren't you content to hurt me. I always try to cover up what I feel if Mom asks about my happiness."
This time there was no loud voice as Keyla voiced out about what she was going through. Keyla's voice sounded so soft, more precisely now he was crying.
"I don't want to argue. Sleep late, this time leave it this way."
"Up to next." Alex continued in his heart.
There was no rejection from Keyla, but he still did not want to see Alex's face.
***
In the morning, Keyla sees her bedside looking for Alex. Where is that guy? Last night was just a dream. No, it's obvious she feels Alex's embrace is so real.
"Why do you like it so much makes it harder for me to let you go." Keyla muttered to himself.
Alex's unpredictable attitude makes Keyla more confused. What about hurting himself being a satisfaction to Alex? Or even he just tested Keyla's patience in dealing with it. I don't know, obviously now Keyla is trying little by little to erase Alex's trail in her life.
"You should know this is Alex. Every time you hurt me, I try to forgive you. No matter how many swords you have struck in my heart."
Keyla took a picture of herself and Alex in her drawer. Keyla accidentally saves the photo, he still hopes there is an empty space in Alex's heart to fill.
"You're so good at playing with my heart by letting me love you, and then you hurt her after I gave you all my trust."
Keyla took a long breath. Her heart was so sore, her chest was already so claustrophobic considering all her husband's treatment and the words that were taken out of her mouth as if Keyla had never meant anything in Alex's life.
"Miss, is Miss awake." Ask someone behind Keyla's bedroom door.
"It's bi, I'll have breakfast in a minute." Keyla already knew that in the morning someone woke her up for breakfast.
"Mr Alex is waiting for you to have breakfast with him,"
Alex is waiting for Keyla. What was?
Not usually, has he not been satisfied hurting himself from yesterday.
Not how long Keyla was ready from the bathing ritual and ended by dressing casually.
"Why are you so long, so soon I'm so hungry." Alex's murmurs filled the entire room.
"I don't tell you to wait for me, don't you usually dislike eating with me." Reply Keyla.
Actually this guy wants what, he likes to fish for a commotion. It seems like it has become a hobby for him.
"I want you to work in the office from tomorrow."
That sounds like an order.
"Working in the office? You're not duplicating." Keyla asked with an unpredictable expression. This is his desire since a long time ago, working in an office and earning a decent income.
"Do I look like I'm joking?"
"Not knowing,"
"But I can't, I just go to an ordinary school. And I don't go to college either." There was joy and fear in Keyla's heart. He is happy because he will work where he really deserves, and also afraid because it is not his expertise.
"Oh yeah, then I'll find someone who can teach you how to play the computer."
"Is it not an exaggeration if you call him here? I'll find a good place to follow skinny later."
"As far as you are." Alex replied briefly.
"I don't like it when you're hanging out every day with Nicholas."
"What do you mean, I accept his invitation when I'm bored at home."
Again Alex is like trying to make a storm with Keyla. Though he and Nicholas are pure friends, unlike Alex with Mira who has a relationship.
"If you refute my words, be ready for you I lock them in the room every day. You won't be able to get out without me." This time Alex was really serious about what came out of his mouth.
"I'm so bored in this house alone, I beg you to understand." Keyla looked at Alex in front of her. He did not sit far away anymore, Keyla hoped that the heart of the man in front of him could soften.
"Oh it turns out my wife is tired of being alone in this house, is it time now we have Alex june-"
"I didn't mean it that way, shut up."
Keyla blushed to hear Alex, this guy really made his cheeks red.
"What's wrong if it's true, shouldn't married couples have children."
"You will soon marry your beloved Mira. You deserve it." Keyla said weakly.
"I don't like it when we're both saying his name. One thing you must remember from our marriage covenant,"
"There's no point in saying we shouldn't have a baby." Alex continued by reminding Keyla anything that was not listed in their marriage contract agreement.
"Don't be selfish, I remember all the contents of the agreement. I also have the right to decide my life Alex."
"I'm being selfish because I'm capable, I'm capable of supporting you both." Alex said the words as if no one was hurt by his attitude.
"Perse me."
Those words just came out of Keyla's mouth.
Alex who doesn't heed Keyla's words. He chose to leave the woman without saying a word. He wasn't ready to release Keyla that fast.
