Killing Me Softly's

5

Moeis immediately opened the locked door with her hands out of control. 

"Lena…!!"

His wife was sitting on the floor leaning against the bed. As soon as Moeis approached, Lyra threw the report and hit Moeis' chest.

"How dare you!!" moeis Benthic.

Although Moeis clasped her shoulders, Lyra persisted in standing up. Her puffy face can no longer be hidden, a sense of disappointment because Moeis' betrayal really brought her down.

"I know everything, but I don't know what kind of person you are. It's terrible." he said as he stood unsteadily.

"Look!! You've been acting out of bounds, you shouldn't interfere with my reports or my possessions!" moeis' wrath shines a light on his wife's face.

Lyra nodded, her tears just kept coming down.

"You are beyond the limit. Remittance? luxury item? use your common sense, Moeis. I didn't understand it at all." her trembling voice didn't necessarily make Lyra afraid to speak to Moeis.

The quarrel that occurred in the middle of the night made the servants worried as well as afraid. While Ellie just stood in front of the room to make sure the situation was still within reasonable limits.

"You think that's your business? if I spend money on a thousand women it's my right. Don't interfere!!

"I'm entitled…." 

"Shut up!" 

Lyra was very incredulous at Moeis's harsh attitude.

"What if Mom and Dad knew all this? Are you still able to occupy your current position quietly?" he said in desperation.

But that only makes Moeis more emotionally ignited. 

"You're threatening me?" 

Lyra shook her head with a sad face. While Moeis brought her face closer with a terrible smile.

Without thinking, Lyra immediately walked out and found Ellie standing in front of her room firmly. 

"I won't trust you anymore." Lyra's annoyed gaze filled with sadness managed to make Ellie bow.

Tonight Lyra decides to get out of the house without a car, and she decides to look for a taxi on the front road. 

The blowing wind was very cold, while his eyes were already very tired.

Finally he took a taxi and headed to the beach area renting a room to sleep tonight. He is quite smart, because he has pocketed enough cash.. Because if using a card, Moeis must easily know where he is.

Ellie approached Moeis who was visibly frustrated by massaging her temple and closing her eyes.

"Master, the Madam is out of the house"

Moeis sighed harshly while standing up.

"Leave it be"

"But, Mister…"

Not getting a response from Moeis was enough to make Ellie speechless. He went out and let Moeis rest.

Looks like some waiter's in the back.

"Ellie, how's it going?" ask one of the servants.

"Mrs left the house. Ask someone to find the Madam and bring her home. Before sundown tomorrow, make sure Madam's in her room."

"Good, Ellie"

***

The next morning, Lyra opened her inn window wide and felt the sunlight that felt very soothing.

"This morning it's either better or not, I can't feel it for sure"

Cellphone's ringing.

"Hello.."

"Bec?? this you?"

"Yes.we met at the Foundation yes, I send the address now"

Suddenly Lyra's mood becomes very good after getting a call from Becca, her best friend since childhood. Becca has also recently completed her education in Germany and is back with her boyfriend. 

After bathing and returning to wearing clothes overnight, Lyra took the time to go to the shopping center to buy clothes, heels and not forget to the salon to improve her appearance.

He was looking for the existence of Becca, it turns out he had finished registering to become a donor and wanted to actively do social activities with his lover as well.

"Yes, I was here a week ago. Actually it's been a while, but Max still has his professor's show"

Lyra nodded, "Oh yeah, meaning you and Max have decided to really go home?"

"Yes. He proposed to me not long ago. And, we are in the process of meeting the family to discuss our marriage" Becca said with a happy expression.

"I'm so happy" 

They hugged. Lyra was happy to hear him, even though it was never felt in real life.

"Hmmm... How about Moeis?" ask Becca hesitantly.

He knew the beginning of Lyra's relationship with Moeis, but after 1 year of not communicating made Becca curious. Have they lived a new life.

"To be honest I haven't been back in a long time either, so Moeis and I are still adjusting. Not easy.."

"Yes, you're right. It all takes time./Oh yes, next month we can social programs for children with special needs in Myanmar, come along? Remember when we were Junior High we always participate in activities like this?"

Lyra smiled, "I remember. I'll call you back later after talking to Moeis"

Doing social activities has become a habit since childhood, it is also decreased from his mother. He always wanted to travel and interact with children. But now it feels very difficult, because the passport is still in the hands of Moeis. Not sure, Moeis will just give it away.

It was getting dark, after meeting Becca and the administrators of the foundation, then the activities today were completed. Before returning to the inn, he took the time to buy food for dinner later. Only in a regular store, no need in a restaurant.

----

"It's better not to come here if you haven't found Madam! Go..!!" snarl Ellie to the pay guy.

"He worked this hard even though you didn't ask him to look for Madam" whispered one of the servants from behind the room.

"Did she really want the Madam back?"

They doubt it a little. All the waiters are talking about Ellie, she's the only one who knows Moeis's activities. Often met Moeis in the room, even traveling together.

"You prepare dinner for Master"

"Good, Ellie.."

For the past few days the servants had been sultry with Ellie's emotions just because the mercenary had not yet found the Madam. Moeis never asked.

Now Moeis is just going through her usual schedule, without looking for or worrying about Lyra.

Moeis entered her home at 8pm, as Ellie had always welcomed her and escorted her to her room.

"Create a flight for me on the 13th for 2 days to Singapore" Moeis said flatly.

While Ellie who was tidying up Moeis's change of clothes immediately fell silent.

"Sir.."

"What's wrong?"

"You can't leave yet. On the 14th night, the Master and Madam will come for business talks. We'll prepare dinner for that" 

His hard work to find the Madam was not without reason. Because it is the one who regulates the schedule of Moeis, so it will be a problem if on the 14th Lyra has not returned home or even Moeis actually wants to go abroad. Only 1 day left.

Again it makes Moeis frustrated, in a state of a messy relationship like this he still has to behave as Lyra's husband.

"Then find the Madam.."

"I've been paying people to look for it since yesterday.."

"Then"

"Sorry, Sir.."

Ellie had not yet spoken, Moeis was already very tired.

"Get out!"

After changing clothes and leaning against his bed, Moeis tried several times to contact Lyra.

Unexpectedly, Lyra picked it up. But he kept waiting for Lyra to speak first.

"What's calling me?" ask Lyra across there.

"Do you have to?"

Moeis sighed.

"If I say go home then you should go home".

"Moeis, I'm a man of calculation.."

"Say, what do you want"

"Explain about the report. And, if I go home, give me back my passport. Next month I have to do something in Myanmar"

"All right"

As he was about to close the call, Moeis still heard Lyra's voice.

"One more…"

Moeis shut up, listen.

"Fetch me, if you want me to go home"

Instantly Moeis' expression turned irritated.

"You think it's my time!?"

"You don't want to?" his tone is weakening.

"Yes, send the address"

After closing the call, Lyra immediately sent out her current address. 

---

It was noon but Lyra had just finished her bath and had her things cleaned up. The sound of knocking on the door sounded. Moeis finally came to pick him up.

"Mrs…"

Lyra looked at.

The driver brought his bag and got into the car.

"Where's Mister?" 

"Sorry, Madam. Ellie said, You're meeting with a client and can't pick up the lady"

He remained silent all the way home, leaning against the window. 

It shouldn't be that easy to believe Moeis' words. Whahuh? fetch her? how important he is to Moeis. Unfortunately, that man was her husband.

"Mrs, we've arrived" 

The driver woke up Lyra who was fast asleep. Finally he called Ellie.

"Mrs.you've arrived, please get up" he said as he slightly tore Lyra's shoulder.

"Mrs, please.."

"Don't you dare disturb me" he said while fighting drowsiness.

It's been about half an hour since Ellie and the driver were standing near the car waiting for Lyra to wake up while occasionally waking her up.

But it turns out Lyra accidentally fell asleep in the car, she even woke up but continued her sleep. A little childish, but this was all he could do to vent his frustration. From the inside he looked outwards, staring at Ellie's face.

'Don't expect me to listen to you, Ellie. You are the one who must obey me' Inner Lyra.

Now the drowsiness is back to wear it.

Ellie, meanwhile, just called Moeis and told her that Lyra was asleep in the car and would not wake up. After receiving Moeis' orders, Ellie lets Lyra and she step inside to prepare for dinner tonight.

 

17:21 o'clock

Moeis car entering the yard. He came out and went straight to the black car in front of him. He sat beside Lyra tired.

"Do you really have to do something like this?"

Lyra heard Moeis's words. From then on, he just closed his eyes.

"I have to do this" 

"Your behavior makes the waiters saturated"

Lyra smiled "Then I will accept their resignation letter"

Hearing Lyra's reply, Moeis smiled obliquely. 

"Listen, I don't know if you're disappointed that I didn't pick you up? it's obvious I went to see a client, so don't act…."

Lyra looked towards Moeis and tried to speak calmly.

"I'm disappointed with everything I just realized.all about this house, about your attitude, and your mistress. I shouldn't have gone to waste my 2 years. I know my family doesn't compare to you, but now I don't care. I'm the lady of this house, I'm your wife. If you don't like what I'm doing for our marriage, then fight me!! You should know how much I appreciate a marriage" 

There was a trembling voice and teary eyes.

"To cherish this marriage, can only be in the way that it already is. Take care of your own business, and obey my orders. Then your life will go well"

"In addition to that artist, have you ever had an affair with Ellie?"

"Don't interfere" Moeis replied with a sigh. He really had to hold back his emotions.

Lyra looked into Moeis's eyes.

"Jawab, I'm your wife.."

"There's no such thing between me and Ellie. Just ignore her if you don't like her"

"But I'm so curious about the truth that I can fire Ellie in peace"

"Nobody can fire Ellie, except me.."

Lyra shook her head, not believing Moeis' words.

"Look at your attitude…" 

After that Lyra just got out of the car just like that. It's dark. Soon his in-laws will be coming, he will soon enter his room and clean up. Then look at the dress prepared by Ellie.

"Why should I wear a dress if it's just dinner at home" she said, passing the dress and walking towards her dressing room. 

Moeis follows Lyra while buttoning her dongker-colored shirt.

"Just wear. That's how you appreciate your in-laws. They will also come in shirts and dresses" Moeis' voice sounded cold.

"Down soon" continued Moeis. He'll go to his study first.

While Lyra exited the room while carrying the dark blue dress and let it drag on the floor. She went down the stairs and gave the dress to Ellie.

"Find plain longdress in black. I don't think our tastes are the same, you should ask me which one I'm going to wear" Her voice always sounded soft despite stubborn efforts.

"Good, Madam"

----

Her parents-in-law was at the dinner table and was talking to Moeis. Especially Mr. Meyers who was listening to Moeis talk about the difficulties and also the development of his business.

"Where's Lyra?" ask mother.

"Call Lyra" Moeis told Ellie.

It was seen that Lyra had walked down the stairs with a bottle of wine. She looks so pretty.

"Sorry, my mom just finished"

"Our daughter-in-law is very pretty. How's your relationship going? everything okay?" ask her while smiling.

Lyra interjected as Moeis was about to answer "Yes, Mom. Last afternoon even Moeis picked me up at the salon"

Moeis stared at the smiling Lyra. Perhaps this was a satire thrown at him.

"Mom's happy to hear that. Don't forget to give us a grandchild soon"

Again Lyra smiled "Okay, Mom".

Seriate...
