Saskia begins to tell her past and dark story. Rani heard it too.
"My father was a gambler, and once he met Mahar at a gambling table. Mahar is not an accomplished gambler like my father, he's just trapped by the invitation of his friend." Saskia paused for a moment to continue her next story.
"Gambling was the first and last experience for Mahar, because after winning the gamble, he never repeated it again until now." Saskia said next.
Rani does not want to ask questions, she just faithfully waits for Saskia to finish all her stories.
"My father used all his property to gamble, but since his defeat that day, he also stopped gambling because he had lost his valuable property due to gambling."
It seemed that the story was so hurtful to Saskia that she always gave a pause to the story to set her breath.
"In the last round of the gambling game, my father had nothing left to bet on so Mahar asked his daughter to be his bail, and that was me. My father was forced to agree to the request, because he still felt confident that in this last round he must have won.Bet given by Mahar did not play at that time, to make my father tempted. But unfortunately, in the last round my father still lost so I was forced to be the bet." Saskia closed her eyes when she remembered the incident.
Rani is increasingly interested in hearing Saskia's story is no less heartbreaking, prejudice to Saskia was slowly fading.
"Father was very embarrassed when there was a man who forcibly picked me up to the gambling arena. My body was placed right in the lap of Mahar, a man I did not know at all. He hugged and kissed me at will in front of the crowd and it made my father's pride trampled, while I felt frustrated that no one dared to stand up for me at that time."
"My father was getting less and less accepting when Mahar started touching my body in the crowd, so he gave a firmness that Mahar would marry me so as not to make me his slave because my father knew what kind of man Mahar was." Again, Saskia gave a pause to the story so that it makes Rani more curious and faithful waiting for the continuation.
"It was with great ease that Mahar accepted the request. In the meantime I could only cry to refuse. The marriage was finally carried out without any love and introduction between me and Mahar. He took me to this house and he took control of me at will. It made me hate him even more, so my father encouraged me to get up and work out a revenge plan for Mahar." Saskia ends her story and turns her eyes to Rani.
"You, you must have felt the same way as I did. So let us work together to destroy Mahar, the man who is marrying us at will."
Rani still grumbles at the words of Saskia, Mahar's old wife. As a young wife, Rani is not so brave to talk, now her heart is worried in two choices. If according to him, he was afraid that it would all cause trouble for himself. Fighting was also useless because he did not have any strength.
"I've taken over some of Mahar's possessions without his knowledge, the rest is your duty. Not my treasure, but the destruction of Mahar. I'll kick him out of my life when he really has nothing!"
Degh,
Rani's heart trembled at the words spoken by Saskia. Rani did not think that Saskia had such bad thoughts. That made him even more wrong, should he obey Saskia's will? Or reject?
