Substitute Mother

Chaptre 82. Asa

Jeanno hates that scent. Hate the dark white walls. Hate all the hospital smells. Everything in the building and its contents recalls the worst memories of his life. That's losing Nayara. So great was the effect that it created a new fear for him to set foot in the Hospital for any reason.

Today is probably the longest-lasting record of being in a hospital. Ignoring the negative response on his body for Mark's sake. By the way, Mark's operation lasted about six hours. Running smoothly but has not been able to bring Mark past his critical period. The point is, the cousin's brother is in a coma there. There is no guarantee when he will realize. It all comes back to the Power of the Universe.

Maria was aware of the stings, now no longer yanked. Together with Jose, Sebastian's couple held hands, never ceasing to pray in their hearts while looking at their son from behind the glass of the nursery door.

“Jean, go home. Aera's gonna be looking for you if you're too late here”

Jeanno almost fell under the name Judith, if only she remembered that she had not told him anything about the woman. Although he is sure surely Aera never let go of calling the figure ‘mama’nya to Jose and Maria.

“But what if Mom needs me?”

Maria smiled faintly, in her pain Jeanno still felt the aura of warmth of a mother. “Mother is better. There is also Uncle Jose. So it's okay if you want to go home”

“Please promise to contact me immediately if need anything, or if there is good news”

“Ya, definitely dear”

Jeanno hugged Maria before saying goodbye.

Hannah's tears are drying up. The heat on her cheek from the mother's slap was not worth the wound on her heart. Played by his boss, distrusted by his own biological mother. Hannah had no chance to defend herself. Similarly, when the threat of the Mother who seemed a slap to her in order not to reject Louis' proposal. Like remembering that Mom is the only parent she has while a man of father status doesn't know where the limp is, Hannah is forced to obey.

Note, forced.

Also when Louis takes her home, Hannah does nothing but follow him to the car. Without the hassle and thought of carrying anything. Just bring himself. Believe me, at that point Hannah really wanted to jump from the car that Louis was driving. Better he's dead than his mother. It is better to die than marry an unloved man. Damn Louis was too smart, the man was already on standby to lock the door. Wake up if Hannah fucks.

“I'm sorry. I had to take this way in order to have you”

Louis said it lightly and guiltlessly. Makes Hannah even more eager to throw another punch at the face.

“The letter. You must have prepared it carefully until you brought false proof”

The man glanced for a moment, then extended his hand rubbing Hannah's thigh. “The letter from medicine is indeed false evidence. But regarding the photos, I think we both know you are often naked in front of me”

“Remove your filthy hands from my body, Louis”

Instead of stepping away, the man's hand just more daring to squeeze thighs in Hannah. On her face was the most beautiful smile Hannah had ever seen.

“If my hands are dirty, then you are dirty too, dear. What do you want to cover anyway, hm? I've seen every inch of your body. And soon we will be married. Remember what your mother said? Marry me or you see the body soon”

Hannah quiet. The energy seemed to be drained today. The woman closed her eyes. Allowing Louis' hands to rebel brashly to every part of his body. She wants to be angry, but Hannah is also disgusted by herself. Everything that happened to him, was a boomerang that came back and harmed him. Indeed, he did not make love to other men, but Hannah had betrayed Mark indirectly. Hanging the man who loves her with a story she always covers and keeps secret. Though maybe if honest from the beginning, the problem will not be this small.

Again, remind Hannah to look for a knife when she gets to the apartment. He really wants to die right now.

“Master.?”

Jeanno raised her face. From earlier the activity of stirring the soup with a spoon looks too fun for him. “Ya?”

“Why not eat?”

“Oh..” Jeanno's hand movements stopped. “Sorry, but I'm not hungry”

“Master hasn't had dinner yet, has he? Or not even eaten since last afternoon?”

Jeanno remembers she had not eaten anything other than breakfast this morning. During the day he intends to dine together with the marketing division to evaluate their figures in the middle of this month. He was forced to cancel because he had to go to the hospital.

“I know Mister has no appetite. But do not let the Master also fall ill. Eat 3-4 bribes, at least there are nutrients that enter the body system Tuan”

Jeanno did not refute, only nodding at a glance. The man started blowing his soup and ate quietly. And sure enough, his movements came to a halt at the fifth bribe. Jeanno spent less than half of her dinner. But that was enough for Judith, at least the man's stomach wasn't completely empty.

“This let me take it to washing”

Jeanno lets Judith take her cutlery. As she was washing the dishes, she sank back into her own mind. Imagine all the bad scenarios that could happen to Mark. Those negative thoughts then made Jeanno rub his face rough. He had felt the pain of loss, and did not want to feel it again.

Judith had finished rinsing the last plate clean. When he turned to look at Jeanno who was covering his face with a palm. The woman walked over, rubbing the young master's shoulders slowly without any intention of surprise.

“Sister Mark must be fine. I'm sure he'll realize sooner or later”

Jeanno lowered the palm that was smothering her face. “I've said that many times today. But still can not stop negative thoughts. I'm afraid if I have to feel the loss again”

“Mark is not the type of person who easily loses focus, especially when driving. He was never distracted by anything. Therefore I wonder how Mark can get wretched like that. There must have been something that shook his focus until he lost control”

Judith opened her eyes, remembering something. “Oh yes, I've tried contacting Hannah. But not lifted”

“You know where his hometown is?”

Judith nodded thinly. “I know the name of the village. But less so understand for the exact address”

“Maybe we can go there to pick up Hannah. Perhaps the presence of Hannah was able to encourage Mark to quickly realize”

Judith nodded in agreement to Jeanno's sensible proposal.
