BRACKET.. A man in his 60s kicked the chair in front of him upside down.
"What's this!! What happened to all those companies!." Shouted the man furious, because suddenly ARS Corp cut off its cooperation in the follow of several other investors who withdrew their investment.
"Destroyed! All my efforts have been ruined!!."
His wife could only cry, thinking about their next life if her husband's company went bankrupt.
"Lad..." Say his son slowly while looking at the messy living room of his house, many broken jars and table chairs that have moved from their place. "I'm sorry Joelly.." The girl's voice sounded slow but still quite clear in her parents' ears.
"Why are you sorry, dear." Ask her mother, named Mareea.
"I'm sorry Joelly. actually all this is wrong Joelly mah reward." Said the girl with his head down, he did not dare to look at his parents, especially the father. His tears were held in the eye.
"What do you mean?." Pedro Joeslin stared at his son.
"Actually...." Joelly tells him everything that happened, about his mistake of making business with Shaka.
After hearing his son's explanation, Pedro Joeslin got up. Now his company will completely disappear, not only that even his life will surely end. "You!!!..." Not finished he said, his heart felt very sick. Pedro Joeslin squeezed his chest, the longer it hurt until he couldn't hold it until he fell unconscious.
"Papa..!!" Jerit Joelly and Mareea at the same time, they both immediately ran over to Pedro who was drooping on the floor.
"Mr Pedro!." Right at that moment, Pedro Joeslin's secretary had just arrived at his boss's residence. The young man immediately ran towards his unconscious boss, checking Pedro Joeslin's pulse, but unfortunately there was not the slightest pulse there.
The man's hands were sweating coldly, and his heart was beating irregularly as he checked his boss's breath, which turned out to be no blowing out of his nose. "Mrs, Mr. Pedro is gone." Shrivelled the man with a face.
Joelly and Mareea screamed more and more, especially Joelly. It was because of the carelessness and arrogance that darkened his heart that all this could happen.

A week passed, Gloria was still in a deep grove of grief. His soul was shaken, he still could not accept the fact that he miscarried at a young gestational age.
The woman is more silent and daydreaming, it is like losing the spirit of life. Shaka had done any way to comfort Gloria, a few days ago he even invited Gloria to stay at his old house, but Gloria seemed unmoved.
"Until when you're like this, baby." Lirih Shaka looked at Gloria who was silent on the balcony, the man sitting on the sofa holding his laptop. Indeed, since Gloria's return from the hospital, she more often completed her work from home. He is not calm if lingering leaving Gloria alone.
Without feeling suspicious or anything, he refocused his eyes on the laptop screen and continued his work. However, a moment of glancing at her eyes caught the figure of Gloria who had already climbed the balcony guardrail and was about to jump from there, "Gloria..!!" Screaming Shaka with a racing heart, he immediately ran as fast as he could towards his wife. He doesn't even care about his laptop falling to the floor.
"Dear what you did.!" Shaka pulled Gloria's body which was a little more will be knocked free from the height of the 2nd floor.
"Honey.. Aware." Lirih Shaka clutched tightly onto Gloria's body, the woman just silently did not react in the slightest.
"If you think suicide makes you happy, you're wrong.!" Shaka raised his voice a little. "I know you're very sad, I feel the same way. And if you want to end your life, do you think you're free of your sadness? if that is true, then what about me? What about me, Gloria.." Shaka's voice grew soft.
"Why?." Suddenly the woman in his arms spoke softly.
"Because I love you." Shaka said without hesitation, his voice soft but very clear.
Gloria suddenly rounded her eyes, finally the word she always looked forward to came out of her husband's mouth. His heart warmed, there was a haru feeling that burst out uncontrollably. Until his tears fell down slowly, no more sounds could be heard from the woman's mouth. Besides the unbearable sobs.
"Why are you crying?." Shaka took off his embrace but Gloria clenched her hand even more as if she did not want to end the warm moment.
The gentle caress of the afternoon breeze that hit the two of them further added to the comfort of the atmosphere Gloria was currently feeling.
"Why? What did I say wrong?." Said Shaka who was confused with Gloria.
"I want to hear it again." Gloria.
"Hear what?."
"Listen to what you just said."
"I love you baby, I love you so much. Are you satisfied?."
Gloria nodded, then relaxed her hand.
"Oh, don't cry. My heart aches to see you cry this week, aren't you tired?." Shaka stared fixed Gloria's eyeball which was still buried in clear liquid, then gently kissed the woman's lips at a glance.
Suddenly Gloria pushes Shaka's body firmly and returns to the balcony, "Gloria! I told you I can't afford to lose you!!." Shaka shouted worried that Gloria was still recklessly jumping from the balcony.
"What are you saying?" Gloria frowned. "You're always thinking negatively, I just want to enjoy the view in front of me. There are people here who love me anyway, so I'm not going to be reckless and die silly in front of him." Gloria gave a faint smile, it was her first smile since she experienced the events that took away her happiness a week ago.
Shaka breathed a sigh of relief. "Have, don't say about death anymore. I don't want to hear it, let alone it coming out of your mouth." He stuck his index finger to Gloria's lips.
"Thank you always be patient with me, guard and protect me. I'm lucky to be married to a man like you even though our meeting started with a wonderful drama, I love you my husband." The long-haired woman fell into the arms of her husband, the sadness that enveloped her heart seemed to disappear after hearing the words of love from Shaka some time ago.
"okay.. Okay.. I thought we should plan your pregnancy again. How about we start now?." Shaka raised his eyebrows.
"Huh? Should now? But I can't seem to." Gloria's cheeks blushed red, she understood what Shaka meant.
"Hahaha, no.. I'm just kidding, baby, you're not healed yet. I'm not a cruel husband who can't control lust, but if you're fully recovered I won't give you a second's rest until you can't groan anymore." Whisper Shaka in Gloria's ear, the man was so happy today that he wanted to seduce his wife all the time.
"Let's be chirpy with a little touch.."
