The Marriage Life

Episode 7's

The cityscape was bright enough to not manage to make a smile from Alice form. In her brain, there was only her husband and ex that made her feel like she wanted to lock herself in the room and cry. It really hurts. Especially now that her husband was beside her, driving while occasionally staring at her who was reluctant to talk.

"Darling?" Alex finally opened his voice after stopping the car. Alice still refused to talk.

"Honey.. Are you hurt?"

Alice still did not answer.

"Honey.. Why didn't you answer? Are you really hurt? Just tell me baby, right now we're going to treat it, as far as I'm here there's a hospital."

"Sorry, I was too strong to hold--"

Alice clucking. "I'm fine, just take me to Mom's house."

Alex frowns mergenyit. "Mother? You want to visit him?"

"I want to split up. Don't let me have a house with you." Alice retorted without looking at Alex who rounded her eyes in surprise.

"No!" Alice turned to Alex. "We are husband and wife, after all you must not part with me. Youunderstand?"

"Why are you so selfish?! You want to choose me or him?! Don't plan!" Alice answered with teary eyes. "I've only been venting all this time! You hurt being left behind by him and looking for me. Begitukab cycle? Now that he's back, your love is gone and you're finally just loving him!"

"No!!" Alex nodded quickly. "Why do you think so dear? I really just love someone. His presence had no effect at all."

"No?! You even said you could get back together! You're a--"

"Honey. I mean back just as friends!" Alex raised his tone to beat Alice's screams. Alice stood there. "Friends, not the relationship you think you are. How can I do that while you are now my wife."

"W-What?" Alice surprised.

"real darling.. Tiara actually thought the same as you. But I told you right away that's not what I meant. He and I can only be friends, so that means we don't have to be hostile or distant from each other. Since I'm more comfortable if there's no hostility, besides if it wasn't for me breaking up with her, I wouldn't have met you, would I?"

Alice closed her eyes, her tears falling. Not for what, but now he feels guilty for thinking badly of Alex. But he's really just afraid of being shunned by Alex, afraid that Alex will get back together with Tiara.

The sensitive Alex, immediately took off his seatbelt and Alice, then hugged his wife's body as much as possible who was crying. It didn't take long, Alice immediately replied.

"It's been.. Calm down baby, don't cry anymore" Alex persuaded.

"I was wrong with you. I was completely wrong with you." Alice hugged Alex's body tighter. "I'm sorry, I'm just afraid you'll be back with her. I'm afraid I'm losing you."

Alex smiled and nodded. "It's okay, baby. Everyone who hears it can think as well as you, don't be so sad."

"Aren't you angry?" alice asked, raising her head.

Alex shakes. "Why am I angry? It's also my fault, I should have composed the right words."

Alice smiled, then drowned her head on Alex's shoulders. "I love you. Really," he said sincerely.

Alex develops a smile. "I love you too."

"Akhs.."

Alice slightly distanced her hand that was rubbing alcohol on Alex's back that was scratched when she heard Alex's moans. He was as gentle as possible, but Alex still grimaced.

"I'm sorry. I'll try harder so you don't get in pain."

Alex smiled and nodded. She had tried hard to endure the pain and did not make a sound so that Alice would not worry. But eventually he still failed because it hurt so much.

"It's okay, baby. Go ahead," he said.

Alice nodded. Slowly he went back to treating Alex's wound on the back very slowly and biting his own lips out of fear. Alex tried to hold back his ringing as the pain in his back crept up again. He was accidentally injured on his hands, feet, and back, due to asphalt scratches.

The alice? She's doing just fine. Just a small wound on the hand. But Alex asks Alice to first treat Alice's own wounds, just Alex's wounds.

Alex opened his eyes which he closed, then sighed in relief, wearing his clothes that he had taken off to facilitate the treatment process. He looked at Alice who was cleaning up and put the P3K box into their bedroom closet.

"Alexes.. You don't go to the office. Istrahat first," pinta Alice while sitting next to Alex.

"Actually the meeting is over, I'm tired of working too. I'll tell Gavin if there was a little accident, I won't go in. I just came to the office tomorrow morning."

Alice smiled. "Goodoo. Like that."

Alex nodded, then hugged Alice who was beside him. Alice let Alex lean on her shoulders.

"Darling.."

"Hm?"

"Actually the thing I want to tell you constantly is failing, I want to tell you about Tiara. But the timing is always not right."

Keniny Alice ferried. He realized something. "Wait, so you're late because of Tiara?"

Alex nodded. "He's talking to me about something."

"About?"

Alex was silent for a moment. There were doubts about telling Alice. But Alice, who was beside him, continued to urge.

"Alexes.. Let's answer, what's he talking about?"

Alex breathed his breath, free of charge he hid. "Honey.. At first he asked me to start a new life again, exactly back together with me."

Alice's eyes rounded for a moment. Surprised not to play with Alex's words, even his hand that tightly grasped Alex's hand began to loosen. Alex, who knew it, hurriedly clasped Alice's hand tightly.

"But you don't have to worry, I refused it and said I already have you. Tiara would understand. He thought I didn't have a wife yet, so he became like this. You understand, right?"

Alice turned her head towards Alex who was looking at her seriously, before slowly nodding." Yeah, I get it." Alice sighed. "But he can really take it, right?"

Alex smiled, looking at Alice with confidence. "Definitely darling. Trust me, Tiara is a good woman."

Alice smiled wryly. I don't know if he's relieved or if there's any discomfort. Alice nodded. "All right."

Drrt, Drrt..

Alex clucked when his phone rang. "Who the hell? Just disturb!" his grunts gave Alice a chuckle.

"Just what, who knows is important. Look, it's from Gavin." Alice can see it from Alex's phone screen.

"Indeed. I'll pick up, baby."

Alice nodded. Then Alex starts picking up the phone and starts talking to Gavin. Alice fell silent, then looked blankly ahead.

Is it true that Tiara accepts herself and Alex as husband and wife?
