The Marriage Order

S2 Churned

I enjoy every caress of her lips that enjoy mine. This love is growing day by day. Like tonight we're back kissing. He enjoyed every inch of my face. Every inch of my neck. However, I did not let her kiss continue down to the bottom of my body. I crossed both my hands over her chest as she tried to reach that place. Not letting him touch that part.

She took off her kiss when I didn't let her reach the area. I sat up and looked at her disappointed face.

"I'm no longer holy."

Instantly, he was silent. His eyes were surprised. I realized his reaction, immediately looking for an excuse.

"My lips are no longer holy. Because you keep kissing her every day" I said, chuckling.

He took a deep breath. Her smile was staring at me. Then hold me in his chest that field.

"Everything you have is mine. I love you so much. Will not be affected by what others say. I will continue to love you. Just you, baby." she said slowly. His embrace tightened and made me draw and exhale worriedly.

I remembered Indira's words in the toilet. She saw me spewing out my stomach for holding back the nausea from earlier. It seems like my mag relapsed due to a late meal and she accused me of being pregnant instead. The woman also told me to immediately acknowledge everything that had happened between me and Mr. Reynand to Kak Baruna.

Why can't he keep a secret? Should everyone know what we've done? Indira and I got into a little fight.

Sorry, Sweetheart. I'm not ready to be honest right now. I was too afraid that you would be disappointed and leave me. Really, my heart won't be able to lose you.

Brother Baruna let go of his embrace. He looked at me with his soft eyes.

"Do you smell a bad smell?" tanyanya smiled.

I kissed my arm and armpits.

Haish .... I haven't had a shower yet.

"You're teasing me?" I stood looking at his face annoyed.

"Ha-ha-ha. You will stay adorable anyway." He pulled my arm and kissed me back.

We were late in a friendly kiss. I hugged his body tightly. Not long after enjoying the kiss, he immediately stopped her.

"You take a shower there! It's night. Then catch a cold," he ordered, standing up, opened his closet and pulled out a clean, blue towel. He gave it to me too.

"My book?"

"Attent. Not long ago Mother bought clothes and interior for you." Brother Baruna took a set of pajamas and an interior. Immediately thrust it at me.

He said again with a chuckle, "Now I know your size because of this."

My face was red too. He really embarrassed me many times.

Ah, but anyway she'll know everything. Because he's gonna be my husband. Husband? Yes, if he accepts me for who I am. The girl who was already unholy because of her half-brother.

"So, where's the bathroom? Where is my bed?"

"You went to that room yesterday?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Yes already, you go up yourself. I can't. Now my room has been moved down because of my feet like this" he said.

"Well, I can ride it myself."

"Don't be surprised if someone suddenly follows you from behind. Sometimes they want to get you to play" he said seriously.

"They?" many surprised.

"Ghost," she said.

I hugged her body again. A house this big must be waiting for him and I'm really scared that there really is a ghost sighting.

"Can't Bi Rindang drive me?"

"He's asleep. I could've called him."

"Don't! Let him rest," my barrel.

"Yes already. Just shower in my bathroom. There's a new toothbrush inside."

Thirty minutes later I came out of the bathroom and got dressed. Aunty Meri's choice is always right. I'm wearing the brown pajamas he gave me.

Sister Baruna seemed to lay down on the sofa near the window of the room. The man turned his gaze and looked at me who was in pajamas.

"My wife," he said.

"Not yet."

"Yes, not yet." He chuckled, then said, "sleep in my bed. I'll sleep here."

I'm unmoving. A little surprised by his words. He then added, "Just calm down, I won't pounce on you, honey."

"Really, huh?" I reassured him. Then lay down on the bed.

"Yes. Sleep well." He got up from the couch. Kissing my forehead and covering my body with a bed cover.

"Good night, honey," he said.

"Night too, Honey."

Reynand PoVs

At 00:00

I lay on the bed while occasionally rolling left and right. Feeling very agitated and unable to close their eyes. Keep thinking about Sheryl who I kissed her lips briefly this afternoon.

He's really anti me. Even to just meet face to face. I was wrong. Very guilty of doing that. Such a cruel thing for him.

Now Kayla is doing something that pisses me off half to death. I haven't contacted me yet. I'm not going to follow what he wants and find another way to stop him.

I don't know where the power came from, I just suddenly tried to contact Sheryl tonight. The call was connected, but not answered. Maybe he's asleep. I tried to type a message on him.

"I miss you, Sheryl."

Not long after a reply notification came. I read a message that surprised me.

"You want what Rey? Trying to tease Sheryl again? He belongs to me. You will not be able to take his heart. Surrender!"

I squeezed my phone in an anxiety. It turned out that Baruna was the one who replied to my message for her. I was so angry at this complicated situation.

Why would he be able to return my message to Sheryl on a late night like this? Are they spending the night together? Has Baruna accepted Sheryl for what she is?

I immediately broke my mind. My finger re-typed the reply message.

"What do you do in the middle of the night with Sheryl's phone? Are you guys together now?"

The message was successfully sent. My heart is pounding not because it feels. Rumbled and felt pain. Very curious about the answer from Baruna. Not long after the answer I wanted arrived.

"There's nothing wrong with me and Sheryl. Even if we want to have a husband and wife relationship. What's wrong is when you're present between us."

The ambiguous answer that came made me take a deep breath and keep throwing it away. I returned the message.

"My feelings won't change. I won't give up that easily. He will not be able to wait for you to heal. Not the love that's in his heart now, but just the pity that's with you, Bar."

I still lay myself on the bed waiting for a message from him. The message was sent for a long time, but the reply never came. Though in the application, it looks he is still online with his girlfriend's phone.

My eyes feel very sleepy. Sayup-sayup sound notification back.

"Lo don't want to know, Rey. Sheryl and I love each other. Only death can separate us. Don't ever bother my fiancee again. We'll continue our pending wedding plans."

I swallowed reading the message. My struggle feels over. I don't feel my tears coming to realize that.
