Marrying My Ex-Husband's Boss

A Form of Peace of Heart

Dusk is still a long greeting, even the sun is still shining even though it is just illuminating, unable to warm the cold of the body.

Very surprising news came from the hospital, making Rian, Mother and Sia rush to him. Rian's face looked tense. A hint of regret seemed to be implied there. But he steadied his heart to open the door that stretched in front of him.

Screaming softly, but able to disturb the sleep of a bed dweller. The eyes opened slowly. Even though it was blurry, he knew who was coming. Her little baby, her husband and in-laws. He remembered, wanting to call her, but he couldn't. His tongue was stiff, his lips forgot how to speak.

Parting with her husband is her way to hell. The mirage he created with his greed. He thought the blazing hell was the light that led him to the beauty of the outside world.

How could he think so haughty as that when his first step out of the house had already greeted the cruel world.

"Mel..how are you?" Rian approached after handing Sia over to Mother. Sia cried seeing Melisa's horrible face.

Originally, Melisa's bead of eyes was hollow by staring at the empty space beside Rian. Slowly, Melisa turned her gaze to Rian. Melisa just nodded with winking eyes.

"Sorry Mel, it's all my fault.I shouldn't have told you to leave!" Rian grabbed Melisa's palm that was stuck in an infusion hose. The hand he once held was full of love.

Melisa shook her head with tears. Although weak, Melisa shook her head for quite a while, her lips tightly clenched.

"Yes Mel. It all started with me. If I could control myself, act like a man, there would be no you or Kira to suffer. No child has lost his parents."

Rian's face looked sad as he said that, even though no tears came out. Rian wanted to end the curse he had created. He looked at those almost dry wounds. A face that is in tears.

"Mel, get well! I'll take care of you!" Cetus Rian's. "I'll take you home."

No problem, after Riana who suffered from depression, now Melisa who can not do anything. Although Rian lives in the present consciousness, taking care of them is his duty.

Mom can't say anything, she accepts Rian's decision. Even though he knew how difficult their lives were going to be. Before his departure, Dad had apparently made arrangements and completed all of his accounts payable. He has also divided the remaining possessions to all his heirs. Including the children of Kira.

"Mel, do you hear me?" Rian shook Melisa's shoulder which had been looking down since. Then he nodded weakly.

"Don't think of anything else, just think of yourself and your recovery!" Rian commented a smile, giving Melisa a boost of encouragement. Which is answered only with a nod.

Melisa is unable to speak because of the trauma of the violence and the accident worsened her condition. However, his left hand still functions despite being limited.

"You must miss Sia?" Rian got up and took Sia from Mother. Although still scared but Sia no longer cried. Melisa looked at Sia, she missed, missed so much. Immediately grabbed a board with paper on it. Melissa wrote something with her left hand. That's how he communicates with nurses every day.

Rian received the board and read it. "You remember Sia's birthday? Can I keep this for him?"

Melisa nodded, then took the board again. Rian was no longer able to hold back his tears when he saw the happy twinkle on Melisa's face. Although Sia's birthday had already passed some time ago, in fact.

"It's okay, Sia doesn't need anything but her Mama" Rian said after reading Melisa's writing. "Look at Sia, she's very smart and spoiled. But he's very understanding, he's not fussy at all."

Melisa nodded again, this time she said something like a pretty word. Then, Melisa turned her eyes towards Mother who had already shed tears.

Quickly, Melisa wrote something on her board. And hand the board over to Mom.

"Mother's the one who should be apologizing to you, Mel. Mother is the most guilty here. Get well soon, so I can make up for your mistakes Mel! I'll take care of you!"

Melisa nodded, while pulling her lips. A moment of happiness flowed in the corner of his eye.

***

Rian brings his family back home, after promising Melisa to come visit him.

On the other side of the hospital, Kira was in trouble with Ranu who was fussy because of a cold fever. Various efforts are made so that Ranu is calm and no longer sulking.

Kira takes Ranu to the hospital garden where there are many flowers and butterflies. I don't know, Ranu did not want to be invited by his father since a few days ago. This made Kira feel unusually tired. While Harris, still hearing the explanation of the doctor is also waiting for the drug.

Kira banged Ranu who was not light, surrounded the park, while chattering. Explain what is seen and held, until finally Ranu fell asleep.

"My hands can break, Ran!" Kira complains while kissing her closed daughter's anxiety.

"Ra,.." said Rian. Although the two are now reconciled, but the awkwardness is still there.

"Solve it all, honey!" Harris, who is suddenly beside Kira, takes over Ranu, who is attached to Kira's body. He rubbed his wife's head, and smiled.

"Why is it like this, Mom?" Rian had only rubbed his palms since then. Without even staring or starting a conversation with Kira. The two are now sitting on a park bench, where he first met Rian some time ago. Kira smiled faintly, recalling her bitterness back then.

"Because I'm a loser, Ra! Because I'm a stupid man, "a laugh full of sneers etched on Rian's lips. "But I accept this roomily, Ra. I'm sincere. Now I know you're too perfect for me!"

Rian shifted his body to face Kira who did not change his sitting position at all. She still nailed her gaze to her husband who was standing far across.

"Ra, thank you for the good times you gave me. Sorry I made you sick. Sorry for all the pain my family has inflicted on you! I will forever remember you as the only precious woman in my life!"

Kira commented a smile, "it doesn't have to be like this, Mas. Start a new life, be a different man. I hope no woman is hurt by you anymore!"

"Sure, Ra! Of course I'll be a better man from now on!"

Kira smiled, let it be if it all had to end like this. Even if you have to melt down first to be with her true love, Kira is very willing. For an imperfect man who loves him for who he is.

***

Rian let go of Kira with relief. His steps were no longer heavy. Looking at the woman who half ran to her true lover.

"You deserve to be happy, Ra!"

Harris smiled as Kira widened her arms to hug her.

"Darling, what did you feed your son? Why is he so heavy?" Harris kissed his wife's forehead, his hands clutching the back of the woman with a face full of satisfaction.

"Qual quality, because the mother is happy!" Kira threw her head over Harris' empty chest.

Harris laughed happily, holding on tightly to the woman who gave him a million colors. "You'll always be happy with me, Yang! Remember your handsome husband's promise!"

"I will always remember, brother! I will also make you happy in my own way of course!" Kira raised her face, looking at the bead of eyes that made her calm.

"Are you asking me to make a baby?"

Kira distanced her body. "Is there no other flutter in your dictionary than that, Bang?"

"There," Harris' hand reached out to Kira's fingers. "Let's make another baby!"

Kira landed a small pinch on Harris' waist and twisted it. "Oh, ouch.you are glad to pinch me there!"

Harris brought Kira's body closer. He kissed his wife's temple gently, no matter how others saw it, "I won't make you sick again, Yang!"
