Not Love But Married

Of jealousy?

Arsha was choked to see Celine with her pale face holding a knife that was pointed right into her own left chest. Bobby, two watch doctors and three nurses were already standing around some distance away from where Celine was.

" Haha... Arsha, finally you came too. ", Celine said with a chuckle.

" Celine, please calm down.. I'm here now. Give me the knife well. ", persuade Arsha slowly while continuing to approach the cornered Celine.

" I've been waiting for you since Sha... Why haven't you been here since this morning. Don't you care about me anymore, Sha?. ", Celine sobbed sadly looking at Arsha who was already in front of her.

" I'm sorry Celine, today I'm really busy. Obviously now I've come here again... Come here Celine, I'm in front of you right now. ", arsha opened both hands trying to persuade Celine to enter her arms and was able to quickly take the knife from Celine's hand.

" You must be lying to me again Sha!. I know you hate me so much!. You don't even care about me for five years. Is it Sha?!. ", Celine further pressed the knife into her chest that was covered in a hospital bed kimono shirt.

" No Celine, I really care about you. Trust me, Celine... If I don't care anymore, I might be here right now. ", Arsha immediately grabbed Celine's hand holding a knife, pulling Celine's body slowly into her arms.

" You really still care about me Sha?!. ", Celine cried bitterly while tightly hugging Arsha's body that she had long missed. This opportunity was directly used by Arsha to take a knife in Celine's hand.

" Yes Celine, I really care about you. ", Arsha rubbed Celine's hair gently, for some reason her heart was broken seeing Celine so badly at the moment.

" Please Sha, get me out of here... I don't want to be here anymore. I'm not Sha's crazy... I don't want to be here!". ", cried Celine hysterically in Arsha's arms.

" Calm down Celine... You need to be treated here first. Your body is still too weak. ".

" That means you're the same as them Sha!!. ", Celine snapped while pushing Arsha's chest hard, "You also think I'm crazy right Sha?!. Haha... I'm the only one who's crazy here, right Sha, and you can still live quietly without thinking about me all along!. ", Celine was loud.

" It's not like that Celine... Please calm down... ", Arsha glanced at all the medical teams gesturing to leave the room.

" Bob, wait outside, I'm gonna have a word with Celine. ", Bobby came out with the medical team feeling sad.

" Let's sit down and talk quietly, Okay. ", persuade Arsha to hold Celine's hand and sit her on the sofa.

" Drink.", Arsha thrust a glass of water in front of Celine's face and immediately in the throat was exhausted by Celine. " Now you are calmer, right?"., asked Arsha who was sitting next to Celine.

Celine nodded silently then looked at Arsha wistfully, "I'm sorry Sha. ", her crying broke again, " I think the millions of times I've apologized is still not enough to make you forgive me. ", he said, cupping his face with both hands.

" Celine, listen to me. Look at me now... ", Arsha raised Celine's chin to look at her. " I have truly forgiven you. I've forgotten about it, and I don't hate you at all, Celine... ".

" Is it true.???. ", asked Celine trying to find honesty in Arsha's eyes.

Celine immediately hugged Arsha tightly, "Thank Sha... ".

Arsha rubbed gently on Celine's back, "Now you have to rest firstwell, you have to recover quickly so you can get out of here as soon as possible. ".

" Please get me out of here Sha, I can't sleep here at all. I want to go home Sha... ", Celine came back crying while hugging Arsha tighter and tighter.

" Where are you going home?. Flight timetable to England last night is definitely non-existent. ".

" I don't want to go back to England Sha, I want to go home to us Sha... ".

Arsha was silent, what should she do now?. Do I have to obey Celine's wishes?. Until when should he succumb to this troublesome state?.

" Sha... I want to go home to your apartment, only there I can calm down Sha... ".

Arsha was still silent, maybe this time he really had to give up again, and hope that after Celine could calm down there, he would be easier to invite her to talk about the truth of their status.

" Arsha. ", call Celine Arsha.

" Okay."., sahut Arsha brief.

" Thank you Arsha... I'm so happy Sha... ", Celine hugged Arsha very tightly. Meanwhile Arsha just fell silent, and hopefully his decision this time will really be a bright path to the problem.

Rania awoke from her sleep with a breath of stupor after having a nightmare about something very sad in her dream.

" Athaghfirullah's... ", Rania held her chest that was still pounding irregularly, then glanced at the digital clock on the nightstand, it was still three in the morning. And then it dawned on her that she had been sleeping alone all night, as if Arsha hadn't come home after receiving a call from a man named Bobby last night. Rania sighed softly, I don't know what happened and her husband was doing until he couldn't go home. Rania shook her head trying to expel her negative thoughts and immediately moved from the bed towards the bathroom. Want to remove the shadow of the dream and also its ugly prejudice with ablution water and all the tahajud prayers.

After finishing the tahajjud prayer, Rania again laid her body in bed, her drowsiness seemed to disappear at this time. Rania grabs her phone on the nightstand, tries to unlock her HP maybe her husband sends her news. Rania had to be disappointed after seeing his phone, apparently there was no notification at all from Arsha, be it a call or a message. The one on her phone was just a picture message that Sarah sent about two hours ago, meaning that around one in the morning Sarah sent it to her.

Rania frowned, wondering if Sarah had even sent her a photo message during her sleep break. Actually Rania was lazy to see the message, she was afraid that the message would make her disappointed and sad like that time. But her curiosity is so much bigger now that it beats her fear, surely this photo has something to do with Arsha her own husband. Rania hesitantly receives the message, and spontaneously her eyes are immediately rounded staring at the photo from the screenshot of an IG post named @Lilysha. His eyes were immediately blurred by the fog of tears that were ready to slide down his cheeks, staring blankly at a photo of a bedroom room that he was very sorry for, with the caption below it read 'Finally, finally, I'm home with you... 🤍'.

Rania sobs, it looks like Arsha's past will continue to be a shadow in this marriage. No matter how much she endured her pain, she could no longer resist jealousy when she saw her own husband was now in touch with his past. Can she live this loveless marriage?. Isn't this marriage just a compulsion, but why now it hurts so much to see the fact that her husband is with another woman. Is he really jealous?. And... does it mean that there is love in him again now?.
