Paying Karma Love

37 Nights of Love

Audrey put a candle on her opanya's birthday cake.

"Opa, Audrey wishes Opa a healthy and long life. Opa can blow out the candle now" Audrey said, holding both of her open hands.

"Thank you, honey. Opa also pray you are happy always with your husband."

Opa tried blowing out her birthday candle a few times. But its strength is weakened by age, making opa difficult to extinguish the candle flame. Finally, Audrey helped her opa blow the candle out.

Mrs Olin, Reiner, and Mr. Jonathan clapped to celebrate opa's birthday. The day's event was followed by lunch together. The warmth of the family made Audrey happy. Reiner seemed to be talking a lot with Mr. Jonathan. He seemed worried about the condition of the man who was going to be his father-in-law.

"Ma, since when did Reiner's bodyguards leave our home?" ask Audrey curious.

"Two days ago, Audrey. Reiner's assistant came in here and said that mom and opa were safe. Furthermore, there is no need for bodyguards to guard our homes anymore. Is Reiner's business nemesis so dangerous that our house has to be guarded?"

"Ti.no, Ma. Maybe Reiner was worrying too much about Mama and Opa" Audrey replied lying.

"Yes, Mama saw Reiner was a very nice guy. He also paid attention to Opa since earlier."

He's just acting, Ma.

audrey refused her mother's words.

"Audrey do you want to stay tonight? Mama noticed you and Reiner brought a suitcase."

"Yes, Ma. Audrey's gonna stay here. Audrey's going home tomorrow because Reiner has to go abroad for a few days."

"Reiner's going again? Then today is your last day together. You better pay more attention to your husband, Audrey."

"Yes, Ma."

"Mama's just worried that Reiner won't stay at home in our little house. He's a rich man who used to live in a very big house."

"If that's the case, Reiner himself asked to stay at our house. So Mama doesn't have to worry."

"Good, then. My mom cleans your room every day. I hope you'll be comfortable."

"Thank you, Ma."

After a long conversation, Mr. Jonathan said goodbye to Audrey, Ms. Olin, and Opa.

"Audrey, Miss. Olin, Mr. Hendri, I'll take it first. Thanks for the invitation. I am very happy today" said Mr Jonathan with a happy face.

"Thank you for coming, too, Om."

Reiner approached Audrey and spoke in a soft voice.

"Darling, I'll take Om Jonathan home first."

The darling? He called me, honey. He is very talented to be an actor.

inner Audrey astonishment.

"Yes, Audrey. Rein insisted on delivering Om. But Om will tell him to come home soon. Om doesn't want to bother you both" said Mr. Jonathan with a smile.

"It's okay Om. Be careful on the road and don't forget to take care of your health" Audrey replied, sending Mr. Jonathan to the front yard.

Why Mama and Om Jonathan easily believe in Reiner's acting. Maybe because he did it too much.

...****************...

Reiner returned home in a taxi after driving Mr. Jonathan home. He found his mother-in-law feeding opa. But, Reiner found no sign of Audrey's whereabouts.

"Reiner, Audrey's taking a shower. Just sit here first. We'll have dinner soon."

"Yes, Ma."

Reiner looked around the simple house and saw some old photos attached to the wall. There's a picture of a sweet little girl being hugged by her papa.

"Ma, is that a picture of Audrey as a child with her papa?" ask Reiner.

Reiner thought it might be a good time for him to find out more about Audrey.

"Ma, has Audrey ever had a boyfriend?"

"Audrey was just focusing on her studies because she got a scholarship. When Audrey was in college, she dated a young man. Name, Dave. But their relationship just made Audrey suffer."

"suffered? What happened to Audrey, Ma?"

"Dave was courting Audrey just to win a bet with her friends. Audrey tries to forgive him, but Dave makes a mistake again. I don't know exactly what Dave did wrong. Audrey didn't want to tell Mama honestly. But it seemed like the mistake was so fatal that Audrey didn't go out of the room for days."

Is it possible that Dave really wanted to harass her?

thought Reiner remembered Audrey's words.

"Then what happens next, Ma?"

"Audrey asked to break up with Dave. But Dave died in a motorcycle accident. Audrey was blamed by Dave's mother. We were also often terrorized to the point of having to move house several times. Fortunately, Audrey can rise from her bitter past" said Ms. Olin with teary eyes.

There's no way Audrey's mom made up a story this detailed. So what actually happened was contrary to what Aunt Diana said. Aunt Diana lied to me. It was Audrey who suffered here.

thought Reiner was full of regrets.

Reiner and Bu Olin's conversation came to a halt as Audrey exited her room.

"Audrey, Reiner's home. Take her to your room."

"Yes, Ma."

Audrey escorted Reiner to her room and prepared the clothes for her husband.

"Your room is so small" said Reiner, looking at Audrey's room.

"My room is small, sir. If you don't feel right here, we better go back to the apartment" Audrey replied offended.

"From now on call me, Rein. I don't want you to always call me Master and Master. And one more thing I don't mind staying in a small room as long as I can be with you. I take a shower first" Reiner replied as he walked away from Audrey.

Did I not hear wrong? He asked to be called Rein and said he wanted to be with me? Is he having a fever?

audrey muttered in an inexhaustible manner with Reiner's change of attitude.

"Audrey, take Reiner out to dinner first," call Ms. Olin from the dining room.

"Yes, Ma."

"Come, we'll have dinner now. And after that you have to fulfill your promise to me" Reiner said with a faint smile.

...****************...

Audrey hesitated to notice her own appearance. The black nightclothes he wore were indeed very fitting attached to his body. But the shirt made him uncomfortable. Moreover, his cleavage was so low that it was almost visible in its entirety. With such an appearance, Audrey felt already the same as a seductive woman. A very opposite nature to her shy and reserved self. But what the power is now, he has promised Reiner and can not dodge. With her heart pounding, Audrey came out of the bathroom and went inside her room. He saw Reiner lying down while reading his book.

"Why are you so long?" reiner looked at Audrey. Reiner's eyes could not help but notice Audrey's entire appearance in her nightgown.

"It's a black one" said Reiner.

Reiner got out of bed and quickly grabbed Audrey from behind.

She kissed Audrey's hair and gently stroked the girl's hair. The touch of Reiner's finger gave Audrey a goosebump.

"Calm down, honey. I will treat you gently. You'll be all mine tonight" whispered Reiner in Audrey's ear.

Reiner brushed Audrey's hair down on her shoulder and began tracing the girl's neck.

"Master, don't make any marks. Mama and opa will see it" replied Audrey pleading with Reiner.

"Good, Honey. I'll make it somewhere else if you want it."

Audrey regretted her words which made Reiner move to another part of her body. After making a few marks in her favorite spot, Reiner cradled Audrey's body and placed it carefully on the bed. Audrey can only give up on Reiner's wishes. He lets Reiner release what he wears one by one, while kissing each curve of his body. Reiner's gentle treatment made Audrey feel loved by her husband. With a gentle rhythm, Reiner made Audrey his full-fledged wife. For a moment, Audrey wanted to forget everything and was immersed in the love Reiner gave her.
