Me, What It Is

CHAPTER 114 S2 ~ Jealous ~

Reana asks permission to enter Nico's room. While looking through the contents of the room, Reana looked at the picture frame on the study table. For some reason when staring at the photo of the smiling sweet girl, his heart felt sore.

This hairstyle ... is it Angela's hairstyle? batin Reana asked.

Reana reflexes touching her hair. Grasping tightly onto her hair, her tears unwittingly flowed. Reana regretted that she had been following Nico's wishes. She felt that her husband had made her from the girl who became her first love.

How could my brother do this to me? Keep your first love until this moment. Treat me as his replacement. Brother Nico can fool me? I hate Brother Nico. I hate. Making me his successor, the older sister did this to me, Inner Reana while covering her face with both hands.

Reana feels Nico wants her similar to her first love. Nico wants Reana to look like Angela. Evidently Nico who always wanted to take her to the salon that used to be visited by Angela.

"The cup is here? I'm looking for you everywhere" exclaimed Nico immediately into the room to approach his wife.

Nico was shocked when he saw the woman trying to wipe away her tears. Nico immediately flipped Reana's body before him. Her eyes were still wet and her nose was flushed. Nico immediately cupped his wife's face and looked at her in surprise.

"What's up, baby? Why crying?" ask Nico wonder.

Reana turned her face away. Nico forced the woman back to face him. Seeing the pushy Nico, Reana wants to leave the room.

"Again I ask you why are you crying?" asked Nico in an increasingly high tone even snapped.

Reana's steps stopped. The woman looked down and cried even more. Reana flipped over, sobbing at the sight of Nico snapping at her. Accidentally turned towards the picture frame on the study table. Nico's reflexes turned towards Reana's eyes.

"What because of this? Tell me what's because of this photo?" ask Nico.

"Why? Why marry me if you still love her–"

"What?"

"Sister makes me look like Angela. This hair is her hair model. Brother is trying to make me look like him–"

"Enough! Are you jealous of someone who has died?" ask Nico while brandishing Angela's picture frame.

"Yes, yeah, yeah, I'm jealous of him. My brother never loved me. In my heart, only he. He still keeps his picture. Brother always took me to the salon he often visited and cut my hair exactly like his hairstyle," said Reana with sobbing.

"Oh my goodness, Reana! Why go that far as your mind. I didn't mean it that way. I don't care what your haircut looks like. Similar or not to Angela. Where might I equate you guys. You and Angela are not the same. You're 180 degrees different. He is cheerful and confident. You're quiet and loner, where maybe I can make you look like–"

"I never ordered anyone to cut your hair in the same model as Angela. Don't blame me for that and don't accuse me of still loving Angela" Nico said.

"But I still keep the picture. So that when you miss your sister, you can still look at her picture" said Reana.

Hearing Reana's accusation, Nico immediately slammed the picture frame until it was destroyed on the floor. Reana screamed hysterically while covering her mouth with both hands. Nico brushed off the broken glass that covered the photo in a hurry to make the man's hand hurt. Reana was again surprised to see Nico grimacing in pain.

The man left the room while carrying the photo with him. Reana runs after Nico's hasty steps. The man steps towards the kitchen. Making the servants and gardeners was surprised because Nico did not usually enter the kitchen.

"Can I borrow a match?" ask Nico who believes that the father has it because of a smoker.

The gardener handed Nico a lighter. The man accepted it and immediately stepped onto the back porch. Reana is shocked to see Nico burn Angela's photo. Reana cries sobbing at the photo of Nico's past love memories slowly turning into ashes. Immediately throw away the rest when it is almost burned out.

"Happy?" ask Nico in a sharp tone.

Then he stepped out of his wife. Reana flips her body towards Nico who walks away leaving her. The woman was chasing but her legs felt heavy. Reana just cried down.

"Sorry." 

Those are the only words he can say. Reana covered her face with both hands. Crying and blaming yourself.

"Why am I like this? Why always do wrong. Why always upset people" said Reana, who blames herself.

Hearing Reana's words, Nico's footsteps came to a halt. Then turned his body to look at his crying wife down. Nico also couldn't bear to ignore Reana. His heart pityed to see his wife blaming herself. Nico finally stepped closer to his wife and immediately hugged the woman who was getting sobbing.

"Sorry Brother. I'm sorry, sister," said Reana regretfully on the sidelines sobbing her tears.

Seeing Nico burn a photo of Angela who has been perched on her desk for years. To prove to his wife that it meant nothing to him. Reana felt guilty. Feeling Nico's sacrifice was too great to prove his point.

"Anything I'll do to calm you down. Anything to make you sure. I love you Reana. Only thou. My past has been erased. The only one who can do that is you. I can't find any woman to erase my memories with Angela. But after knowing you my heart feels free from the past. Only you can do that and only you can. Now I don't want anyone anymore. Just want to be happy with you" Nico said, hugging and stroking his wife's hair.

Reana hugged her husband. Reana just wanted to trust her husband. Believing that he really meant something to Nico.
