Pulau Kuduk Meremang

I blinked when I felt the cold coming down on my body. The longer it feels, as if it penetrates the pores and infiltrates into the bone. My body froze as it was made.

With a weight I was about to open my eyes, but I haven't had time to do it, suddenly there was rain fluttering. Where am I now?

I opened my eyes and found bright light all around. No rain or drizzle, so what hit me?

Then I looked down and found a shirt that was soaked. Then I was glued to the end of the dangling hair covering part of the chest. Where's my veil? What the hell happened to me?

"Wake up!"

A scream that echoed with the water. I gasped and realized that the water was deliberately splashed into my body. Then I looked up and found Amanda standing in front with a sharp look. Why is he here, and why am I alone, where is Dara?

I was about to wipe my wet face, but my intention failed because I couldn't give my hands, nor my feet. For a second understanding the situation, I finally knew that my body was tied up on a chair. Why can it be like this? Didn't I go to Mala's house with Mayra, where were they? Where's my son?

"I don't know what makes Darren crazy about you, when your status isn't clear. She said virgin, you already have a child. As a widow, you are not married. Perhaps .... vocation****** that suits you better." Amanda stepped closer to me. "But .. Now I have a way to make Darren stop loving you" she continued with a big smile.

"Where is Dara?" ask me quickly.

"Just think about your safety, there's no need to think about useless children. You know, he's happy with his new life."

"Whatchu mean? Don't mess with her, I won't forgive you!" my snapping.

"Again? Who expects your forgiveness?" Amanda laughs.

Then he grabbed my chin and forced me to look up. He then pointed a small knife at my face. There's nothing I can do but throw my eyes away. My legs and hands were tightly tied, unable to move in the slightest.

"Because of this face, Darren ignored me." Amanda spoke while scraping her knife on my cheek.

I groaned, enduring the pain and pain that began to whack. However, Amanda did not stop, just laughed and scratched it even deeper. Within seconds, my blood was flowing and dripping on my lap.

"Cry, spend your tears. But ... It won't stop this knife. It will dance on your face!" Amanda ranting.

"Open your eyes!"

I felt a slap landing on the cheek, along with Amanda's scream. Incredibly sick, maybe now my wounds are getting torn apart. I opened my eyes, but did not look at him, not wanting to see the laughter of victory. Just listening to it was enough to make my heart ache. Perhaps, he is a demon incarnate in the human body, so it has no conscience and humanity.

"Look at me! Looky!" Amanda yelled frantically at my hair violently. There may be some strands that have slipped out of place.

"I'm prettier than you, I'm also the first one with Darren. She's mine, I won't let anyone take her away from me, including you," Amanda said with a hunting sigh.

"He's married to me, and you have a husband. You___"

"Shut up!" Amanda glared sharply. "You don't know how my home life is, so don't be so smart about giving advice!" continued.

"But you___"

"Shut up! You have no right to talk to me!" Amanda tightened her grip, causing more and more pain in the scalp.

Amanda's shoulders were seen going up and down, breathing was rough and irregular. Perhaps, his anger was growing.

"I know my attitude is evil, but none of this is without reason. So far, only Darren can understand me. For years I was never happy, and only Darren could make me feel that. I don't want to suffer anymore, Kirana, so .. no matter what happens, I won't let Darren go. Understand!"

After speaking, Amanda clenched her hands violently. My head staggered and hit the back of the chair. Be ill. Again, only pain I can feel. Regarding Amanda's words, I don't understand what she means, but I don't ask. I just bit my lips and prayed to God. May Dara and I remain in His protection.

Shortly thereafter, Amanda walked away from me. At a glance, he sat on a chair, in the corner of the room. From the crevices of her hair, I saw her playing her phone. I don't know what to do.

For about five minutes we were quiet. Amanda put down her phone, but didn't get out of the chair. Just staring sharply and occasionally smiling obliquely. Maybe he's still making other plans.

I flinched when I heard the door open from outside. As I looked up and saw who was coming, someone I knew very well. At first I breathed a sigh of relief because I thought he would help me. However, I was wrong, he gave something to Amanda. An item that makes my hair bristles.
