The Marriage Order

S2 Disappointment

Reynand PoVs

I looked at Mama's face, which looked very angry. He pulled his body away from the couch. Then it approached my face while landing a loud slap.

Mama slapped me in the face. His breathing became irregular. The look in her eyes showed the disappointment and anger of a mother. I accepted his treatment. I can only look at it with guilt. However, as I said before, it does not make me a man who gives up on the situation. I still love Sheryl and want to make her mine.

"Rey, is this what you call love? On that basis you did such a cruel thing? Just kill your Mama, instead of you having to smear the name of Pradipta! How can you do that behind Baruna?!"

I took a deep breath. Not answering Mama's words. I could only look at his angry face.

"Brazed kid! Can't answer, huh?!" yell Mama again.

"Mama, forgive my mistake. I did it when he was unconscious from being drunk. But Ma, I'm old enough to account for my actions. I'll marry her!"

"Who allowed you to marry that girl? Mom never approved of your relationship! Anyway, you should have thought. The woman is a debt guarantee. Mama won't want to help you pay her family's corporate debt!" emphatically.

Hearing Mama's words made my heart riled. I turned around and left Mama's room.

God, what am I supposed to do? I need to start looking for a loan from now on.

I went by with a sad feeling of having let the woman down. I realized I was guilty of everything I did. Indira who passed me in front of Mama's room saw me confused. I looked back coldly.

"Where are you going?"

"It's none of your business!" I said, "please take care of Mama. I've pissed him off" I added again.

"Basic, Brother! I told you not to make it a lot of mind, and Brother deliberately made him angry!" he screamed, but I didn't care. Get out of the yard and go drive by my car.

Until something like this happened, but no one supported me. Indira and Daniel? Ah, I don't know... I don't understand who they actually support? because Baruna is their friend. I still have to try to do it myself.

My eyes are focused on the front. The heat from Mama's slap had disappeared along with the shadow of Sheryl's smiling face in my mind. Immediately, I turned the car towards the hospital.

After a while, I arrived at the hospital. I walked into the ICU waiting room and saw her sitting with two people I didn't know.

"Sheryl," called me as I approached her.

All three pairs of eyes turned towards me at the same time. I sat beside my bidadar. It was seen that he took a deep breath without caring for me and continued to chat with his two friends until they came home.

"Sher, Fandy and I go home first, yes" said the woman. He hugged Sheryl.

"Take care of your health" the man beside her smiled.

Sheryl nodded then said, "Thank you for the time to come to this place. Your arrival has truly been my strength."

"Yes, Sher. You welcome. Mr. Rey, we go home first" said the woman who knew me. He suddenly greeted and extended his hand to shake hands.

"I-iya. be careful on the road," I said welcoming a helping hand.

However, the face of the man by the name of Fandy looked cynically looking. He then embraces the woman, inviting her to quickly step into the elevator.

"Why are you here, sir?" ask her while getting up from her seat.

"Want to meet you" I replied briefly. I stood in front of Sheryl.

"I beg you to forget everything that happened. We live each other. Let yesterday be a life lesson." Sheryl continued to refuse.

"can't. It's too real to ignore. I want to marry you even more" I said.

Sheryl was silent, continuing to take a deep breath. So heavy seeing him catch his breath.

"I love you for who you are and I want to make you the mother of my children. Is it hard to make that happen? Whereas you once said that you love me," I said again staring into his face. Her sad black eye bead stared back into my eyeball.

"We haven't even started any relationship. It seems I have misinterpreted love itself. You've offered me love and I'm only interested in the offer."

"At least that's what made you call my name when you were drunk. Deep down in your heart you have accepted my offer, Sher," I said.

"Enough! Let's just end this conversation. He was still there fighting between life and death. You are only thinking about your own feelings. As a brother, I really don't have empathy."

I swallowed hearing him say that. Where is the mercy that came into my heart yesterday? Seeing him helpless on the white bed. Baruna, I don't know when we'll be waiting in between this uncertainty.

"Surely you're regretting it, right? But later you will come back with no feelings. What is your heart made of, Mr Reynand? Happy for the suffering of me and my family." Sheryl suddenly sobbed. Her tears flowed freely. Her swollen eyes were crying too much and so tired it made me unable to answer a word.

I approached towards him, subconsciously pulling his shoulders and hugging his body. Feeling her trembling body added to the disappointment in my heart. She cried and screamed between the deserted hospital hallways. I kept hugging tightly. Swiping his back, trying to calm his shaken soul.

"Deliver! Release me!" his orders.

I don't care about his orders. Keep holding it tightly in my chest that field.

Suddenly my shoulder was pulled by someone. Without further ado, a punch landed on the corner of my lips. I crashed, the hug just came off. Soon, I looked up to see who hit me. Reza was next to his sister. He embraces Sheryl who is still sad. Nearby was also present Dita__Love Reza who covered her mouth with her fingers, so shocked.

"Basic brash! Still trying to find a chance, huh?!" His angry face was terrifying.

"Sister, already!"

"You want to protect this guy, Dek?" he asked with a angry face.

"No. Nope. It's a hospital. Better not make a fuss," he replied.

The two brothers had an argument with each other, when suddenly a security man came towards us. His stern face looked a little scary.

"Sorry, it's forbidden to make a fuss here. If I can't follow the rules, I'll take you to the office!" emphatically.

"Sorry, Sir. There's just a little misunderstanding here. We're sorry." Suddenly interrupted the conversation

"Well, if there's another fight. There is no mercy for you" he threatened.

Dita just nodded and lowered her head apologizing. The security man finally left us. I could only silently stare at the three people in front of me.
