Plans to move house in Akemi and Shella, finally realized after getting permission from Mama and Papa. Both of them now live in Apartments that are not far from the Aljav and Marina Apartments. Akemi deliberately bought an apartment that was close to her brother first, because when Akemi needed help someday, then the man would come to Aljav first.
Akemi's apartment is on the 11th floor, and that's where Akemi began to want to know the figure of Shella even further. By getting to know Shella, Akemi becomes more aware of what the character, habits, and other things that are related to his wife.
Shella was no exception, the woman also wanted to know Akemi further. Although Shella felt the need to return the favor to Akemi, because she felt her degree lifted. However, is not their status still husband and wife? so she should have served the man who is now her husband.
"Do you want us to sleep apart? I mean, do you want to sleep in this room with me but in a different place? I'm on the couch, and you're in bed" Akemi said. She wishes inwardly, that Shella would sleep in her room with her despite having to be in a different place.
Shella still did not reply, the woman seemed silent and thought whether to sleep in the room with Akemi or instead sleep in a different room.
"It's up to you, sir" replied Shella. Once again the answer made Akemi's heart feel something disappointing. How not, Shella again called him Master and you. Does the woman really think that marriage is just a return? thought Akemi.
"Shella, do I look like a stranger to you?" Akemi asked with a face that was difficult to understand. Shella did not answer, her head bowed. He doesn't know what to say. In this case, Shella was also confused. Confused because she felt she had taken the position of another woman who was supposed to be the wife of Akemi. If that man doesn't have a lover, or love Shella, shouldn't he be telling the truth?
"I'm sorry, sir," Shella replied with her head bowed. Even his voice was filled with regret.
Akemi held onto both of Shella's arms, she stared deeply at the black bead of the woman's eyes.
"Shella, I know everything's sudden for you and maybe even our marriage seems rushed. I don't think about how you felt before about me. I know you still love that guy, but trust me I'll make you feel good here, you don't have to be afraid of me, em?" lang Akemi's.
"I'm not afraid Mister" Shella replied.
"I'm just confused by this marriage. I am still not used to everything. We don't even know each other. There are many things we don't know about each other" Shella explained to Akemi.
"Then let's get to know each other." Akemi's words made Shella's heart rustle. The door of the woman's heart began to knock to want to get to know Akemi even further. Maybe that way, he'll know Akemi's heart. Should he open up? or just dissolve in his mind, that Akemi still has a lover? I don't know.
"Where will we start? even this marriage is like a charade" Shella said in a trembling voice.
"What do you mean? the charade?" Akemi asked confusedly.
"If it's not a charade, then what's the name of this? we got married very quickly. I don't even know what your purpose is to marry me. We live under one roof, but our bodies are separated, and we even have to sleep in different places. Is this what we call marriage? is this what a relationship says? if you want to know me, you should ask how I feel about you. Or at least, finish your business with others first," said Shella excitedly. Akemi looked confused. He doesn't understand what she's saying. Business with others? who's? thought Akemi.
"What do you mean by that? I had no enemies all this time" Akemi replied. The man failed to understand the meaning of Shella's words. Akemi becomes unfocused, even she ignores the beginning of Shella's sentence. Akemi simply quoted the woman's final sentence.
"You know everything, and I think we should just sleep apart, excuse me," said Shella. The woman also left Akemi who was still silent in the room while staring at the nanar Shella's back which is now missing from behind the door.
To be continued.
