The Tears In Marriage

With Embers

Alora looked at herself in front of the bathroom mirror. His whole body feels very sick. A few red marks were on Alora's neck. For the first time, Alora shed her tears. Alora did not blame Reinal for asking for her right to be a husband. Only, Reinal asked him by force.

Not just once, Reinal did it several times. Therefore, Alora's body felt extremely weak.

Alora's ringing makes her return to the real world. Alora let out a long sigh and wiped her tears.After which, she walked out of the bathroom to see who was calling her.

Bara's name is on Alora's mobile screen. Immediately, Alora raised the call.

"What's the Dimas situation?" ask Alora directly. Alora always thought about Dimas.

"Udah is aware of him. But it has to be an opname. I'm still here from last night. Do you have any intention of looking at Dimas? Oh yes I forgot. Not approved by Reinal, is it?"

"Thank God that Dimas is fine. Thanks for taking him to the hospital."

Alora did not answer Bara's question. At the moment he doesn't want to talk about Reinal.

"Gue wants to stop by Lo's house before I go to the office."

"We met outside aja," said Alora directly. Seeing his condition like this, Alora did not want Bara to see it either. He did not want to look weak in front of Bara.

"I'm on the way to your house soon. I hung up, we'll see you there."

Without waiting for Alora's reply, Bara immediately closed their call. Alora could not say anything.

After the call was over, the room door was knocked from the outside. A servant entered Alora's room with a tray containing a glass.

The waiter walked over to Alora who was sitting on the bed. He placed the glass on the nightstand next to Alora.

"Sir Reinal was telling me to drink this" said the waiter, pointing at the glass he had placed.

"What's this?"

"The herbal medicine given by the mother-in-law."

Alora closed her eyes hearing that. Reinal really did what he said yesterday. Alora will continue to take this medicine until she conceives her child. But Reinal's intentions and words will never happen. Alora had no intention of conceiving Reinal's child. She desperately wanted to be a mother, but not if what she conceived was Reinal's seed. His frustration with Reinal all this time made Alora choose such a decision.

"Well, I'll have a drink. You can go out" said Alora. Alora intends not to take the medicine. He would throw it away after the servant left his room. But Alora's intention will not happen. The waiter remained standing beside Alora. Waiting for Alora to take the medicine.

"Sorry Mom.. You said I had to see my mother take this medicine."

Reinal was beyond belief. Alora did not understand why Reinal could always guess her intentions.

With a slight annoyance, Alora took the glass and drank it with a single sip right. After the medicine ran out he gave the glass to the waiter next to him.

"Yes ma'am, if that's what I'm sorry to get out."

The waiter walked out of the room.

Actually Alora did not really believe in the efficacy of the drug. Alora believes more in modern and scientific matters than traditional ones. So according to him, she will not get pregnant just because of taking the herbal medicine.

The look of Bara's eyes did not escape Alora's body. He could not take his gaze away from his little sister's body.

"Lo's the same as Reinal?" ask Bara directly.

"Should I tell you the same story, all of you?"

Bara's breath made Alora smile thinly. He knew very well that Bara was very worried about him. Alora was well aware of that.

"Gue told you it was the same, separate better Alora. I can't stand to see you like this."

"Gue's still holding it. If I can't stand it all, I'll leave. And you're the first person I'll meet when I go."

Alora grabbed Bara's hand and clasped Bara's. He tried to hold back his tears from dripping. "Gue knows you love me and vice versa. I still can't decide whether to split up or not, because I'm not sure yet. I'm afraid, your company, our family, I'm afraid we're ruined. If I am the only one broken, I have no problem. As long as it's not you."

"Lo shouldn't sacrifice yourself like this, Alora. I told you everything would be fine now. We'll be fine if you split up with Reinal."

Alora lowered her head. He believed what Bara said. "We're gonna be fine. But now, Reinal has always brought Dimas into our problems. I know you're gonna save our family from Reinal, the edge of Dimas? I don't want him to get hurt just because of my personal problems. He's suffered a lot because of me, Bar."

Can't do.. Alora could not help her tears from coming out. All his efforts to look tough in Bara's eyes ultimately failed.

The looking embers pulled Alora's chin and wiped away her tears. "Early opposite. Dimas will get hurt look at Lo like this. You know, what was asked when he just opened his eyes? Elo. He's just lo, Alora. He asked me to check your circumstances. He's afraid of why. You never made him feel miserable."

Alora's tears were dripping from hearing that. He is so lucky to have people who love him. Bara who saw Alora crying, took the initiative to bring Alora into her arms. The gentle elusan on Alora's back that Bara gave made Alora even more let out her grief.

"Never sacrifice yourself for the sake of others, including Lo's own family.never, Alora."

"Thank you, Bar. I'm lucky to have you brother kayak lo."

"Gue is lucky to have a rich brother. Sorry I was selfish. I made Lo save my company and get Lo married to Reinal. I regret doing that, Alora. If time could play out, I'd rather have my company destroyed than my brother destroyed." Bara's tears came out when he expressed his regret.

Hearing all Bara's words made Alora stronger to make a decision. Alora was never this sure to make a decision. Parting with Reinal would probably be better than continuing to be in a marriage that doesn't make her happy.
