The Wife Who Escaped

Transaction

Reynand's long eyelashes lifted as she felt the sunlight seeping through the window.

Reynand lifted her upper body off the bed. And he checked the time and it was past 8 a.m.

"......"

When was the last time I slept this late?

Looks like it's the first time.

Ever since Kirana left, she had fallen asleep without even waking up.

Reynand, who was fast asleep for the first time after a long time, looked brighter than usual. The bright energy appeared as if a reflector was mounted on my face.

'Tok..Geck..Geck..'

A small voice sounded from below. It seemed like the sound was coming from the kitchen, and somehow it felt sweet and cozy.

Reynand got up from the bed and put on a robe. Then he came out of the bedroom.

As she went down the stairs and looked towards the kitchen, she saw Kirana's back.

Kirana who was wearing an apron, was cutting vegetables on the cutting board with a knife.

Her appearance was very beautiful, so Reynand saw her for a long time.

The presence of Kirana at home alone had changed the atmosphere. It was so peaceful and warm that this moment felt like a dream.

Kirana, who was concentrating on cooking, felt Reynand's gaze late and turned her head.

"Uhs. Are you awake?"

A slightly smiling face while looking at me was also beautiful. So much so that I want to lift it up and go to the bedroom.

“I've been wondering if I should wake you up, but today Did you not go to the Office?” Kirana said while cutting her vegetables again.

"Seeing Grandpa didn't say anything, it didn't seem like he threw me away. I have to go later."

“But is it okay to leave for work at this hour?”

"It's okay. I have to stop by somewhere in the morning, so I'm definitely gonna be late."

Reynand approached Kirana and asked.

"What did you make?"

“I'll make soup for breakfast.”

Reynand gestured behind Kirana's bustle.

"You were excited this morning. But you pretended to be dead yesterday."

Kirana's earlobes turned slightly red.

After meeting Grandpa at his house last night, once he got home, Reynand

He kissed Kirana's lips. And we made love there, without even having to go up to the bedroom.

The love that starts from the front door continues as it moves, and as time passes, the heat gets hotter and shows no signs of stopping.

Whenever Reynand is stopped by the exhausted Kirana, she does not stop, citing magical logic

'The journey is still long to complete after 3 months of playing.'

Kirana said with a red face, recalling last night.

“At that time, I really felt like I was going to die.”

“It's not good if I die, right?”

Kirana who was silent for a moment, thought that she could not be affected any further and turned her head.

Then she said while focusing on cooking again.

“It will take about 20 minutes, so Go take a shower after that we have breakfast.”

Just then, a large hand touched his waist. Reynand said as she hugged him from behind.

“Can't I just do it once and then wash it?”

Every time he spoke, his hot breath touched the back of Kirana's neck.

“Don't enough do that yesterday?”

Kirana answered with her ears reddened.

“Yesterday was yesterday, and today is today.”

His thick knuckles untied his aprons.

For a moment Kirana was shaken by the hot sensation behind her waist, but then thought again.

If I correct her every time she throws out unreasonable logic, my body will not survive.

Kirana held onto her heart, releasing Reynand's hand from her waist.

“I can't because I'm cooking now.”

Then, he looked at Reynand with fresh eyes and said.

“Quick go shower and breakfast.”

***

When Reynand came out into the dining room after taking a shower, she saw a table full of food.

Kirana came to the table while holding the bubbling soup. Then he put it in the middle of the table and said.

“Come, sit.”

Reynand then sat down.

Kirana took the stew with a spoon and put it in every bowl of soup. And then he sat across from Reynand.

Reynand looked at the food on the table. There are many carefully prepared foods, including soybean paste soup with seafood, egg rolls, and zucchini pancakes.

“Do you cook all this?” Said while looking at his plate.

"Yes." Yeah."

"It's amazing"

"......"

"That's amazing. It's faster than I thought.”

“Quick feeding before cold.” Kirana said with a bright face, as if she did not like her praise.

"thank you. I'll eat it all."

Reynand lifted her spoon and took a spoonful of soybean paste soup.

Kirana looked at him blankly, and when she made eye contact with Reynand, she asked.

"How does it feel?"

"Very delicious."

"Thank God... I haven't cooked this dish in a long time. So I'm worried."

The relieved Kirana felt comfortable and wanted to drink by herself.

Kirana felt Reynand's eyes gaze and raised her head.

Looking ahead, Reynand was looking at him with a smile on his face. Kirana who saw that asked while looking at that calm smile.

"Why are you laughing?"

“I just love it.”

"What?"

"All." Reynand said as she looked at Kirana with deep eyes.

Everything's fine. I love the food Kirana prepared, and it's nice not to have to eat alone.

Just because Kirana was with me, things got better.

Now I will cherish every moment I spend with him.

Unlike the previous days when Reynand had only seen documents throughout the meal, she made eye contact with Kirana and talked to her from time to time.

"What are you going to do today?"

Kirana spoke after swallowing the food she chewed.

“First of all, I think today will pass quickly if I pack my things and clean the house.”

“Why don't you hand over cleaning the house to aunty alone?”

"I can do it myself. I have to arrange it so I know where everything is."

This time Kirana asked.

“When will you go home?”

“I'll be back in time for dinner.”

“Why do you always leave so early?”

"......."

“Why did you arrive early when everyone came home from work?"

“Now, I will leave the work like a knife, so I am not paid more to work all night.” Reynand said excitedly.

I promise and swear that from now on I will never be alone in performing. I will no longer put everything into my work at work. I don't want to be greedy for fame and status even though it makes my appearance lonely.

"Then let's have dinner outside. There's something I want to eat when I come to Indonesia." Kirana told Reynand.

"What?"

“Mie Ayam”

“Mie Chicken?”

"Yes. There's a really good Chicken Mie stall near the university where I graduated. Even when I was in Rome, I always wanted to eat it, so it crossed my mind."

"......."

“I should have gone to Rome with that thing, but it's a pity that I didn't know.”

"It looks so good. Let's eat for dinner tonight." Reynand said with a gentle smile.

A bright smile was seen on his face, as if he was in a good mood thinking of eating Kirana as well.

***

Reynand was wearing a well-designed dark gray suit, getting down from inside the car.

He looks around.

The city surrounded by mountains looked quiet and desolate.

Reynand walked down a bumpy road to a house with a dark red roof.

From the outside, the house looked small, and there was a gloomy painting on its front door.

And on it was a sign that read: I am holding it.

[Hisai Kendari]

Reynand rang the doorbell next to the front door. Then, a person's voice is heard through the phone's speakers.

[What brings you here?]

"I'm here to meet the shaman Nyai Kendari. I'm the one who called to say I'll see her in the morning."

[Please wait a minute.]

Moments later, the front door opened and a young woman appeared. He pointed to the gate said.

"Follow me." Said the woman while pointing towards a room.

Reynand passed through a courtyard filled with crock pots and entered the main building.

“Log in here.”

Following his guidance, Reynand opened the door and went inside.

There was a large unidentified scroll hanging in the middle of the room, and there was a candle holder, a statue, and a table with gold decorations.

There was a woman sitting at the table. The old-looking lady was wearing a white kebaya and a dark brown skirt. His hair was neatly tied without a single hair, his face was deathly pale, and his lips were blood-colored.

The shaman looked at Reynand without saying a word.

Reynand also faced her gaze without avoiding it.

The place that Reynand came to was a fortune teller that the Chief had long visited.

Before Reynand's father died, the shaman here foresaw a great disaster, and the Chairman began to follow his words blindly.

The reason why Reynand got married in such a hurry was because of this shamanic prophecy, and the reason why he tried to have children was because of the shaman's prophecy.

'Within four years, a very precious hand would enter this family. The child will eliminate all misfortunes in the family and bring prosperity, then immediately pair with your grandchildren and see the results.'

It was only natural that the Chief who just believed those words, did not approve of Kirana who had trouble having children.

If it is because of this shaman that Kirana is expelled, Kirana's life path also depends on the shaman.

Reynand with strong eyes, opened her mouth.

"Hello. My name is Reynand, grandson of Chairman Steve.”

The shaman who had been staring at Reynand for a while, spoke softly.

“You came because of your grandfather.”

"....."

"Hmmm....No. gabe. You didn't come because of the Chairman.”

Reynand's eyes twitched. His tone was light yet heavy, warm yet gloomy.

It was no surprise that he guessed what he was there for.

Maybe, it's just a matter of signing up the people closest to you. Unlike the Chairman, Reynand is a very realistic person and does not believe in unscientific things.

Reynand looked straight at the shaman and said.

"I know my grandfather believed strongly in shamans. However, because the trust was so deep, it became toxic to me and my wife."

"......"

“I came to visit you about the problem.”

The shaman still only looked at him in silence.

Reynand spoke with a bold tone.

“What I want is clear and simple.”

"......"

"Please tell my grandfather that I must not leave my wife. I don't have to say anything anymore, that's all I need."

If Grandpa believes the shaman's words unconditionally, all he has to do is change the shaman's words.

I think this is the quickest and most sensible way without having to persuade Grandpa.

Reynand took out a clean white envelope from inside her suit. He took out a piece of paper from the envelope and placed it on the table.

“Please write down the amount you want.”

All he handed over was a blank check.

Reynand said with strong eyes.

“After I confirm that you have delivered the message to my grandfather, Sayan will send it to you immediately in cash.”
