The Wife (The Persecuted Wife)

Struggle

Elno felt that time was very slow to go. He could not wait for his wife to come home. Every time Elno waits for news from Kara. She was afraid to call first because Kara was still in the last shelter they communicated.

"Kara's just been away a week, El," said Tedy.

"It still feels like a year" Elno said.

"Later you get used to it" Ilmi said.

"Yes, it's new. Naturally Elno was sad," Tedy said while patting his best friend's shoulder.

"Go home, I remember Kara. I should have given him a decent life. I feel like I failed."

"You got married after graduating from school. What do you want to do? Nowadays it is difficult," continued Ilmi.

"I promised myself I'd have to graduate quickly and get a job. I want Kara to come home soon" said Elno.

The days Elno spent were hard. There was no news from Kara. Every Elno contact is always not connected. It might also be due to the regulations in the shelter that Elno herself did not know.

Not feeling a month has passed. Elno was worried because Kara had not contacted her either. Various questions arise. It is possible that his wife did not have internet data so she could not contact or did not buy because she was not allowed out. Indeed, the workforce may not be able to go out alone, but with a group.

After getting a break to serve guests, Elno sat in a special room of servants. He stared at the screen of the phone away from the noise. Elno still works at a nightclub.

"How are you doing there, honey?" elno muttered.

Time shows at two in the morning. Elno was reluctant to eat even though tonight she got rations of packaged rice with fried chicken side dishes. Elno gets rice from her fellow worker. Remember if you get a good side dish, then Elno will only eat the rice. The fried chicken will be brought home and given to Kara.

The phone rings. Elno's smile rose looking at the foreign number with a picture of his wife's photo. Immediately, Elno picked up a video call from the green phone handle application.

"Darling!" Elno was eager to hug his wife.

"What's? Kangen?" Kara giggles there.

"Pastill. I want to hug I can't. You haven't called me in a long time" Elno said.

"Social media here is a bit tricky, honey. I can access a special service and I hear it will be blocked. I hope it doesn't happen" Kara said. "Oh, yeah, I've got a job."

"Do you take care of the parents?"

Kara nodded. "Yes, Honey. Fortunately a woman. He's got married kids and they're rich businessmen."

"Do they live there?" ask Elno. Afraid that Kara's employer would enter the room secretly.

"They don't live here. Madam Gu is also fluent in English. I have no trouble communicating with him."

"Why don't you sleep? It's late."

"It's an hour faster here" Kayla said. "This morning she wants to accompany Miss Gu to sports."

"Are you given a day off?" ask Elno.

"Yes, Honey. Every month for two days. Young mistress says she comes once a month."

"You're fine there. Don't forget to always call me" said Elno.

"Yes, Honey. Don't worry."

Elno brought the phone to her face. He kissed his wife several times. Kara laughed at her husband's behavior.

"Taste really?" kara said.

"Let's love you anyway."

Video connection disconnected. Elno wiped her phone screen. "Good job, sweetie."

...****************...

Eventually, Elno gets used to Kara's absence beside her. His wife calls once a week, although Kara can call Elno every day at bedtime. However, Kara is not happy with her employer by using the internet network for free.

Lady Gu is very kind. In addition to freeing Kara to use her luxurious home facilities, Ms. Gu gave more salary beyond the contract letter. Every time Kara's out of the house, she's escorted by guards. Madam Gu is afraid that Kara will disappear.

Indeed Miss Gu is very rich. Kara was lucky to get such an employer. Even Kara thought of her as her own mother. He told me he was married and his life problems.

It didn't feel like a year Kara was working. Elno no longer works at nightclubs. He focused on his education. Each month Kara will send money at a predetermined date. Elno saved the money to take the house and some she used to pay for her education.

...****************...

Years passed until Elno graduated from her education. The money sent has also been used as a down payment for the house. Kara promised to go home after their home loan paid off. Elno allowed it again.

Mrs Gu is very affectionate towards Kara and wants Kara to extend her contract. This time he was often sickly and Kara could not bear to leave him.

Elno did not sit by enjoying the hard work of his wife. He applied at various companies and finally got one opportunity even though starting from the bottom first. Kara is very happy to get the news and hopes Elno will immediately rise to office.

"The money you send, I pay to the house is the same for the renovation of some parts that you want," said Elno.

"You just use the money" said Kara.

Both made video calls. Kara's happy Elno's not skinny anymore. Elno often sports weightlifting with Tedy and Ilmi. Her husband's body was fielded and became a pleasant sight to behold.

"Keep, you're not going home. It's been five years, honey. I also have a job even though the salary is still small" said Elno.

"Wait for our house to be finished. I'll send it again tomorrow. Young Madam gave me money as a gift. Her husband got a big project. He gave me a double bonus."

"Aren't you the same as your husband?"

"Kangen, dong."

"Go home" persuaded Elno.

"Yes, definitely go home, honey. It was a long time ago, yeah. I have to work."

Elno had to be willing to have his wife cut the video again. The more Kara's employer gives her salary, the less her wife wants to go home. Elno no longer knew what to persuade Kara to come home.

...****************...

The house was gone from the appointed time. However, Kara still refuses to go home. Elno no longer touches his wife's money. The money was saved because Kara was going to buy a car.

Counting that they had been separated for eight years. Elno is busy with work with a new position as a marketing manager and Kara with her job as a nanny.

Elno also no longer persuaded Kara to go home. He was tired and left his wife in the land of men. Kara knew her husband was angry because of promises he had not kept.

Two years became five years. Then eight years until finally get into the next year.

"I'm glad you're in office" Kara said.

"Yes, thank you," replied Elno flatly.

"Darling, are you angry?"

"Alright, Kara. I have a lot of work. You're fine there" said Elno.
