evil thoughts



Today was a very exciting day for Echi. Because today Geraldi fulfilled his speech to come to propose Echi officially to his parents. But Echi was afraid that the good intentions of his lover would be rejected by his family.


Wrapped in a white robe, Echi sat restlessly on the edge of the bed while squeezing his hands together. Seemed sweat condensing on his forehead which in the thin makeup polish. Her pale lips that were polished lipstick with peach color appeared several times tightly clenched.


It sounded faint from inside the room that Echi's parents or rather his mother accepted this proposal.


Echi was a little relieved even though he was disappointed because the father was not in the middle of them when this sacred event took place. The father who is outside the city argues that his work is currently unable to stay.


It'sit's okay. Echi knew that father was disappointed with his current state. Which parent is not disappointed if the child is raised with affection, even the father is willing to work away from the family to meet the needs of his life, even get a reply that is so painful with the news of the pregnancy of his daughter?


"Sister, on the same mother's order" Cantika's delicate voice jolted Echi from her daydreams of her father's current feelings.


"Yes." Yeah." With his younger brother in tow, Echi walked out to meet the entourage of future husbands and future in-laws.


Echi and Geraldi sat face to face on the sofa with a glass table as the barrier.


"You look fresher. And... beautiful" said Geraldi while staring at the face of his lover who seemed blushed by his speech.


"La. Alhamdulillah has started to be better than when checked yesterday." replied Echi awkwardly while staring one by one the faces in the living room.


"This next week I will return to Jakarta to take care of the documents for the marriage conditions. You're good as long as there's no me. Don't mind much. Think of your health as our child. I promise I'll come sooner for our wedding."


After talking and enjoying the dishes prepared by his mother Echi finally Geraldi's entourage home.


These days Echi tries to refrain from contacting her lover. Because he knew Geraldi must be busy to take care of their wedding that will soon take place considering that one week is a short time to take care of wedding needs.


While daydreaming about his fate, Echi's phone rang. Soon he grabbed a cell phone and held the call excitedly thinking his girlfriend was calling to exchange news.


But unfortunately, not his encouragement that he heard, but the insults and abusive words that he heard from the brother who was connected via a telephone connection at this time.


Yes, the one who is calling right now is Fira, Echi's brother. As the oldest child he expressed his disappointment at the actions of Echi who was too free to give his virginity to the lover. He called Echi a family disgrace, he described Echi as a dirty, filthy woman and a prostitute who was not worthy to be recognized as a sister by him.


While Echi was only silent and occasionally cleared his throat when the elder brother called out to him.


Shortly after the connection was cut off, Echi felt extremely devastated. He just wanted to die to end his life. He cannot be a family disgrace.


Echi went towards the kitchen and gulped down some drinking water hoping to calm his heart. But his mind still remembered the sharp words of the brother.


Echi walked towards the warehouse and found a one-liter bottle of insecticide. Look at it with the bottle.


"A litre will probably be enough to get me to sleep for as long as it is" so inner Echi with his perverted thoughts to immediately put an end to life.
