Forced to Marry My (Small) Friend

Chapters 2. The Heart that is Broken

Marco is silent. It was a tough decision for him.

"Where can I not touch Helena at all. Even now I need it to complete my delayed desire. All right, Marco, hold it for a while. At least I can still do it with Sherly later after marriage," Marco's inner self in frustration.

"All right, I agree. I promise I will meet all your requirements. I also promise to be fair to both of you" Marco said with a smile.

"Goodoo. From now on I don't want to share a room with you. If one day you violate the terms I proposed earlier, then you must kindly free me from this marriage" Helena said cynically.

"Emmm... Honey, don't you want to wish me a happy birthday? Don't you forget it's my birthday?" marco asked hoping to divert Helena's mind.

"I never forget, Marco. Actually, I came suddenly because I wanted to surprise you. But the truth is that I'm the one who's getting the most amazing, disgusting surprise!" said Helena sharply.

Helena immediately sauntered away leaving Marco who was still sitting while massaging his temple.

The next morning the two Marco, Mr. Husein and Mrs Miranda come to discuss Marco and Sherly's wedding plans. They don't know if Helena's back from Austria.

"How are you preparing for your wedding with Sherly tomorrow, Marco?" ask Tonya Miranda while sitting in the living room.

"Oh... So Papa and Mama already know about Marco and Sherly's affair, even with their wedding plans?" ask Helena who suddenly appeared.

"Helena?!" mister Husein and Mrs Miranda.

"Yes. It's me, Helena" said Helena, smiling snidely, then sitting on the sofa and facing her in-laws.

"When did you come, baby? Why didn't you tell Papa and Mama?" mrs Miranda asked wrongly.

"Oh... Helena just arrived yesterday Ma, when Marco was riding with Sherly on Marco's desk," Helena replied with a mocking smile.

Mr. Husein and Mrs Miranda widened their eyes and looked at Marco intently. Marco only gave a clumsy smile to his parents.

"Helena, Papa, I'm sorry. Papa was not very good at educating Marco. Papa apologizes, son," please Mr. Husein.

"Mama too, baby. Mom apologizes for Marco's mistake. But please please please bless Marco's marriage to Sherly, because Sherly is pregnant with his son Marco and our grandson" Miranda said softly.

"Mom take it easy, I told Marco that I would let them get married" Helena said.

"Thank you, baby. Your heart is really good. After all, it's good that when Sherly's baby is born, you can be a mother. Because until now you have not been pregnant either, Helen," said Ms. Miranda without sin.

Helena's face turned cold.

"Ma! Don't talk to Helena like that" Marco protested.

"But Mama is really Marco" said Mrs Miranda insistent.

"Mama enough!" snarled Mr. Husein.

"I'm sorry, Mama, Helena. Mama didn't mean to offend you" said Husein kindly.

Mistress Miranda was about to protest but was undone when she got a sharp look from her husband.

"Look easy, Pa. What Mama said is true, if until now I have not been pregnant," replied Helena.

"Helena went back to the kitchen first yes everything" Helena said as she sauntered away without waiting for an answer from Marco's family.

After making sure Helena's body was no longer visible, Miranda immediately protested to her husband.

"Papa. Why is Papa yelling at Mama? What Mama said was true, Helena admitted that until now she had not been able to get pregnant," said Miranda upset.

"Enough Ma. Mama don't corner Helena. Marco doesn't like it" Marco said.

Marco felt increasingly guilty for Helena because her mother's words must have offended Helena. It's not Helena's fault that she hasn't been able to get pregnant until now, because Marco hasn't touched her.

"What Marco said is true, Ma. You have to keep Helena feeling, however, Helena is Marco's first wife. And Papa doesn't want to until Helena asks for a divorce from Marco. Our company still needs the support of HH Corps, the Helena family company," Husein said with a slight tone of voice.

"Mama's sorry Pa. Mama didn't think that far" said Ms. Miranda.

From behind the wall between the kitchen and the living room, Helena stood sculpting. He listened to everything that his father-in-law said. Helena's heart is further broken when she learns that Marco's family forced them to marry, in order for the Royal Company to gain the support of HH Corps, her family-owned company.

Helena asked the maid to finish her cooking activities, because her mood was not good. Helena went to the back garden and sat alone there. At breakfast with her husband and in-laws, Helena remained silent with her cold face. No one dared to ask him. Only occasionally did Marco and Lady Miranda offer him side dishes and vegetables.

Marco and Sherly's wedding day arrives. Before leaving for the wedding venue, Marco met Helena in his room. She intends to say goodbye and hopes Helena will open her heart and be present at her second wedding.

Marco knocks on Helena's door, then opens it slowly. Marco went into the room and saw Helena standing by the window. Marco approached her and stood behind Helena, keeping his distance.

"Helena darling. I'm leaving now. Are you sure you don't want to come, baby?" marco asked gently.

Helena turned around and faced Marco. Helena saw Marco's appearance in a suit and tuxedo, looking very handsome and luxurious. Marco's current appearance is very different from the appearance of Marco when he married him first.

"Are you ready to free me from this marriage, Marco?" helena asked back with a cynical smile.

Marco's face flushed in anger.

"will not. I'll never divorce you and never think of leaving my life, baby. I love you, Helena," replied Marco.

"But your love for me is inferior to n****u depraved for that woman" Helena said.

"You'd better leave now. Your bungting bride would have been impatient to be Mrs Marco Austin" said Helena.

Marco also gave up. He did not want to argue with Helena.

"At least give me your prayer Helena, even though what I'm doing is hurting you a lot" Marco said with a clear face.

Helena approached, then salim and kissed the back of her husband's hand.

"May your children be healthy always. That's my prayer" said Helena, letting go of Marco's hand.

"Thank you dear" said Marco with a smile.

Helena immediately got up and took her bag from the closet. Helena took her old phone. He sat on the bed and activated the phone. When the phone is on, it looks like the screen of the phone is a photo of Helena and Axel together first. Helena deliberately used the photo as her phone wallpaper. Helena smiled gently staring at the screen of her phone.

"Hi my best friend. How are you?" greet Helena.

"Do you know Xel, my heart is completely broken right now. Marco betrayed me, he cheated on me. And even more painful, Marco's family did not sincerely love me" Helena said with a bitter smile.

Helena seemed to be talking to Axel. Helena opened her mailbox and opened the last message sent by Axel one week after Axel returned to America.

..."Hi Helena. This is the last message I'm sending you and the last time I'm talking to you. I've thought through it maturely. I want us to end our friendship. We both have lovers. There is a heart we must guard. I hope your relationship with Marco is always okay. Do not bring myself again among you. Because I also don't want to present you between me and Icha. I love Icha so much and she is a part of my life. After you read my message, I hope you won't call me again. I'll block your number and all your social media accounts. I'll also erase all our memories. I hope you do the same. May you always be happy. Axel,"...

Helena spilled her tears every time she read Axel's message. Helena still does not believe if Axel could break the friendship they have established since childhood.

"How are you doing now, Xel? Last time I heard you were engaged to your girlfriend, Icha. I always pray and hope you will live happily with the woman you love" Helena said with tears streaming down her eyes.

"If God would allow me to see you again, even if only once, even though you would no longer consider me to be your friend. Your el will always love you, Xel, " said Helena.

After a long cry, Helena fell asleep holding her old phone.

And elsewhere. At a base belonging to the Morris family in Germany, a handsome but cold-faced man was beating up a merciless man.

"Arghh! Forgive me sir, don't hit again" shouted a man who was being beaten.

"Your word?! I'll forgive you if you tell me where Patrick is right now!" snapped the cold-faced man who was none other than Axello Zyan Alvaro.

Axel's men manage to catch a man who used to work for Patrick.

"I'm telling you the truth, sir. I don't know where Patrick is. We have not communicated for a long time, sir," said the man with a clear face.

Axel didn't care about it, as if his heart had frozen. Axel continued to beat him until the man fainted. Aiden and William who saw it immediately broke up and held Axel's body to stop beating the helpless man.

"Stop Axel! You can get that guy killed!" snapped Aiden.

"I don't care. I will kill anyone who has hurt Icha!" shout Axel.

"William, get your men to take the man before Axel gets out of control!" Aiden's orders.

William nodded. Then he and his men brought the fainted man out of the room.

"Hey, Will. Where are you taking that man? He hasn't told me where Patrick is. Get it back here!" shout Axel.

But William and his men did not listen to Axel's screams.

"Take me off Aiden!" snapped Axel.

After making sure William and his men go far, Aiden releases Axel.

"Pacify yourself, Axel. Take control of your emotions" Aiden said.

Soon William reenters Axel and Aiden's place.

"Where's that guy Will? Bring him back here!" axel's orders.

"will not. Enough of your cruelty, Axel. I don't want you to turn into a killer monster. You're venting your anger at someone else who isn't necessarily guilty" William said.

Icha's been gone six months. But Axel and his men still haven't found the whereabouts of Patrick Dawson, the man who allegedly planned the murder of Icha. The police closed the case of Icha's death due to the lack of evidence that proves if the accident that befell Icha due to deliberate factors. And all that turned Axel into a cruel and cold-hearted figure. Axel also acted coldly to his own family.

Even Axel had a fight with his sister, Jasmine. Axel does not accept when Jasmine advises him to let go of Icha and immediately move on from Icha. Axel not only snapped at Jasmine, but he gave a slap across her sister's face. As of now Axel and Jasmine's relationship is still cold. This saddened both of their parents, Zayn and Aline.

"Aiden. Give me your loudest drink!" exciting Axel.

"Don't be crazy Axel. You're not allowed to drink liquor" forbid William.

"Shut up, Will! Aiden quickly give it to me now!" snapped Axel.

"Are you sure? Which one do you want? Beer, Vodca, Whiskey or Tequila?" tawp Aiden.

"Whatever. Pick the hardest one" Axel replied.

"Aiden please don't" William said as he glared at Aiden.

Aiden only returned it with a smile. Then he poured the vodca into a glass of wine and handed it to Axel.

"It's hard enough for you to never drink alcohol" Aiden said.

Axel immediately received a glass of the drink and was about to drink it. Aiden patted Axel on the shoulder and spoke near his ear.

"Don't forget to say bismillah and remember Mama Aline's crying face" Aiden said.

Axel unconsciously followed Aiden's words. He read the basmalah and immediately a picture appeared of the face of his mother, Aline who was crying. Axel's face hardened. He held the glass strong and threw it against the wall so that it broke and it spilled over the walls and floor.

"Amkkhh!" axel yelled in frustration.
