COMMONWEALTH
Episode 24
"I'm sorry I shouldn't scare you that way." This time it was back to normal.
Aryo was silent trying to be calm.
Aryo took a bandage, tried to close the wound on his wife's hand.
"You just rest. Let's just say I never said anything like that."
Sekar left Aryo who was still silently staring.
"Why did it change? is there something wrong in him?"
Aryo daydreams alone, seeing the dark room lights.
Now I'm sleeping. Aryo slowly went into the room keeping all the secrets he wanted to quickly know.
Aryo looked at Sekar who was already fast asleep.
"What is this wife hiding? why would he keep it out of my ignorance?"
....
The next morning they had breakfast as usual.
Get up first, cook and prepare breakfast.
Aryo took a bath with warm water that morning. Today is so humid and overcast.
"What night did you cover something from me that suddenly changed, from self-harm to avoidance and tell me to forget it all?" aryo asked this morning to drink some warm milk.
"No need to be clear." whispered Sekar gave a plate of fried rice.
"May I know all that You've covered?"
"It's about my personal life, not ready to tell you, even if I tell you, are you ready to accept the reality?"
Aryo was silent not long.
"Whatever you have become my wife, ready or not I will accept all your shortcomings."
She sat next to her husband this time.
"We are not ordinary people, especially me. My blood flows the blood of an incarnation. My mother was a human being while my father was a commoner."
Sekar's voice this time came to a sudden halt although it was difficult to continue that remark.
Sekar trying to be honest with her husband if covered will be open as well as her identity.
"We are the same, your mother chose me to marry you." continued Aryo holding his wife's hand.
"We are the same fate, born of the child of incarnation."
"And we'll have incarnate descendants again?"
"Shall we delay? do you want your son to be ostracized one day if people find out that he's a commoner."
"That's what he should think about when he grows up."
"Sometimes I'm confused if the situation has changed."
"Will we postpone it until when?"
"Until I find a way out. Until I found the freezing solution of the incense gene that runs through both of us."
"I'll try, we can't be the same as our parents were. Enough I was dumped but not for my son later. I don't want my son to be treated the same way his father was as a kid."
"Maybe that's the reason my mother has prepared our house to be isolated from the crowd. He has gone through our past. I still have my mother's body, she said it would be useful to us later. Because he's a pure human being."
Aryo stared at the wall clock.
"Have you known my secret for a long time?"
"I feel the air of your fishy body. You're trying to poke blood instead of in the basement freezer. I've been checking that since I've lived in this house."
"You're quick to find it, but it's hidden very tightly."
"We're the same, it doesn't make any difference."
"Hurry and finish your breakfast! we don't have much time." whispered Sekar momentarily breaking such a serious atmosphere.
Aryo devoured the rice.
"Somehow I don't lust, I have to ask for your stock in the basement cooling cabinet. My body's been too tired these few days."
"You're forcing yourself to be a human being, aren't you? don't make it hard on yourself."
He poured the red liquid into the glass.
Aryo spent it in two minutes.
"I feel like I'm back to life."
"Do you want to add more?" Sekar.
"That's enough, I don't want to spoil the incarnation in my body. If I could I wish I could throw it away. But it can't be at all."
"We will struggle, how do we start by reducing it, waiting when our bodies really want it." Sekar suggested.
"Are you gonna be okay? because I've been used to it for a few years now I've made it a habit to not depend on it."
"I'll try to."
"For the sake of severing the link of the incarnate curse that runs through our bodies."
"May I ask you something?"
"What's that?"
"Please promise not to cover everything whatever it is."
Sekar nodded in agreement this time.
Far from the bottom of her heart there is actually an expression that she must want to express even though only sometimes she has not dared to say it directly to her husband this time. Fear of injuring or even storing loads that make it difficult to describe with detail.
