The Marriage Order

S3 Returns to Home

Sheryl Pov's

I rushed into the room. Open the closet and take a suitcase. Without wasting any more time tidying up my stuff. Yep! I'll be out of here soon.

"Sheryl, where are you going?" Suddenly I heard the voice of my mother. The biological mother of Baruna then entered my room, "Sorry, Mother entered because she saw the door of your room that is not tightly closed. What the hell are you doing? Why are you tidying up your stuff?" ask Mother again with a look of wonder.

The face that looks sinless Mother made me sigh long. Remembering how they all had so much heart to hide the truth from me that I wondered about my position in this house.

"I want to go home to my parents' second home, Bun!" I replied with a face bent in annoyance. Really don't care about the response anymore. The condition in this family really hurts and it makes me even more angry.

I saw Mother's frowning forehead. "Going home? Your house is here, son. Did you guys fight?"

I did not answer and continued to occupy myself by putting a lot of clothes in the suitcase.

"Shery?" Mother called me again.

"I'm really going home. Baruna must have known it without saying." I answered tightly to hold back the tears that were about to fall from the fertilizer.

"Yes, but why? Your problems are over. Rey's gone from here. A little quarrel is natural for a married couple."

"Mother should feel relieved. You don't have to get tired of pretending to be nice to me now, because my whole memory is back. Even about Rafael and Felicia, all of you turned out to be lying to me completely. Today with my own eyes I saw Mas Baruna and Felicia having an affair."

"Checked?" Mother fell silent then frowned, "don't turn back the facts, Sheryl. Obviously you're cheating on your husband's back."

Mother accuses me again. He hasn't changed either. It feels like his words are really bad. Not his son, not his birth mother, really makes me inexhaustible. I'm always to blame.

Instantly I grinned, then without much thought immediately pulled my suitcase. "Thank you for everything, Bun. I was having an affair and I'm really sorry" replied the sarcasm. I don't care about this family anymore.

"You'll regret leaving Baruna. She never dares to you like you dares to!" shouting Mother.

I don't give a shit. Immediately dragged my black suitcase out of the room. In front of the door, Rafael appeared to be standing. Her eyes that were so similar to Baruna made my steps stop.

"Where is Aunt Sheryl going?" the question is so innocent.

I snorted with a half-drawn smile. "Congratulations! You've got a new father!"

Rafael shows a confused looking face. Even knowing she was just a child, seeing her gaze made me even more inflamed. Without saying any more words, I immediately left the Asyraf family residence.

After a while, I stopped the car in the yard. Cupping your face on the steering wheel. At that time I was crying loudly accompanied by music that played with a high tone. I don't want anyone else to know how I'm doing right now.

Although they have arrived at the home of both parents themselves, it feels not ready to meet them, especially Mama. A woman who always supports whatever is my decision.

My phone rang a few times, but I chose to ignore it. I feel like I just want to be alone, not to be disturbed by anyone.

Tuk-tuk-tuk!

The sound of a knock from the outside of my right side sounded faint. I immediately wiped the tears and straightened up. When she turned her head, Mama's face looked at me with a big question mark that read.

I turned off the music audio and opened the car door. Can't look at my own real mother. With his head down, stand in front of Mama.

"You've arrived but you're not out of your car. What's up, son?" ask Mama.

I shook my head, then decided to look at her. "Mama, how did you know I was coming?" I asked because I didn't tell anyone about my arrival.

I took a heavy breath. Deepen in the heart of Mother's actions that I do not understand. She was defending her son, but also worried about me leaving with emotion.

"I'll probably stay here again" I said suddenly. My cry broke, unstoppable. I felt so sad, so disappointed, so angry, but I didn't know how to put it out.

Seeing me, Mama hugged me so tightly. "Yes, Mama understands. Hearing Baruna having a child with another woman just feels like Mama will easily understand you can make this decision."

I'm speechless. Wasn't it! Not only that, Ma. I said in my heart.

"I'm sorry, Ma. I really don't want to be a wife. I. i.. i...." I sobbed, unable to continue my words. It felt so tight that I couldn't breathe.

"Sheryl, relax! Don't blame yourself too much. Let's go in. Being in a car with music is no use. You can tell anything to Mama." Mama rubbed my back so gently. I'm nodding. We also moved into the house.

Baruna Pov's

That night, my decision to part ways with Sheryl really made me angry. Dad slapped and beat me all out in front of Mommy and Felicia. The two women could only cry to see him. While Rafael went nowhere. Bik Rindang took her away so as not to see this kind of scene.

"You really embarrassed me, Baruna!" Dad started with his annoying speech.

Even with the corner of my lips turning blue, I immediately pulled out half a smile. "Did you prefer Sheryl to trample on my pride?"

"It's not so!" Dad jerking.

"Then what? I've been patient for him for a long time!" I yanked him back. Really am! His treatment left my heart completely hurt.

"At least don't tarnish Asyraf's surname any further! Aren't you ashamed of having sex with another woman in front of your wife, huh?!" Dad cornered me.

I glanced at Mommy, then swallowed the saliva quickly. "Isn't that what you did first? I'm just following in Dad's footsteps."

"Don't switch the conversation! I painstakingly warned Rey not to expose your secret in front of the amnesiac Sheryl, but you did...." Dad was ready to hit me. His hands were raised freely in the air.

"Don't, Mum! Don't hit me again!" The voice of Mother's cry was heard again, pleading with her arrogant husband. Felicia was speechless. He just looked at her with a sad look.

I put up a slanted grin. "Unfortunately, he remembered it. I'm sorry I lied to follow you."

Dad immediately flinched. He seems to be at a loss for words as he finds out Sheryl is recovering from amnesia. Dad stepped back and sat limp on the couch. Mother also sat beside him to calm Dad.

"You don't understand what the consequences of this are, Bar. Sheryl's father cut off his friendship with Dad. He's also pulling his investment from the projects you're developing" Dad said suddenly.

"I'll be in charge of that project. There are still many other companies interested in investing their capital."

"Then our friendship... can you restore a good relationship friendship that has been established for a long time, huh?! Can't, Bar. He hates our family." Father explained with a clear look.

"Let time restore it, Dad. Sorry, that disappointed me. But this is my choice and you have to respect it" I closed our talks.

 

Gaes, actually I still want to write because there is still a storyline spinning in the head but because the time is not there, please be patient, yes. Hope today up again.
