Arka got up from her seat and approached Mona, staring intently at the girl. It made Mona's guts that wanted to say more shrink. Pulling her sister-in-law's chin and gripping it to return her gaze
"Take a look in the mirror before you say that, Mona! It's okay if you don't do the obligations thrown at you. But replace the money your damn brother brought," Arka scolded and made Mona fall to the floor. "You don't know yourself!" Arka snapped and pulled Mona's hand to follow her. "Stay here! Think about what you want, whether or not it's appropriate for you to ask me," Arka said, pushing Mona into the shed and the man locked it. "Brother-in-law, open it! Don't lock it Mona is scared," Mona shouted banging on the door, she started sobbing in fear. Arka walked away from the warehouse, annoyed at Mona's request. The man preferred to go to his room to rest his body. He was very tired, letting his sister-in-law sleep in the warehouse for the night. "Brother-in-law, please open it! Mona is scared, Mona promises not to negotiate anymore let alone argue," Mona squealed, the girl was very afraid of the dark. Mona sagged to the floor, hugging her knees shakily. Her eyes glanced at every corner, this warehouse was very dusty. She was terrified of cockroaches, the fear of meeting them was overwhelming. "Mona is scared ...," Mona whispered shakily, her body slightly shaken from crying. Mona squealed in surprise when she felt something crawling on her hand, the girl immediately shook her arm when she realized it was a cockroach. She ran to find something to repel the insect, and when she found a broom Mona quickly got rid of the cockroach. Breathing a sigh of relief, she immediately swept the place where she was sitting while holding an object for dusting. It would be her weapon while she was here. "This place is so creepy, why did Brother Arka have the heart to punish me here? I'd rather work a full day," Mona whispered, her eyes wary of the cukes approaching her again. "This is all because of Sister Dinda, if she hadn't run away and betrayed Brother-in-law my life would have been fine," Mona said clenching her hands, remembering Dinda's departure. "What should I do, I can't return the money that Sister Dinda took away," Mona mumbled, sounding weak and desperate. "Why did Sister Dinda sacrifice me as a substitute for her," Mona said, wiping away the tears that had begun to fall. "My only choice was to obey Arka's brother, replacing Dinda's sister's role as his wife," Mona said again, as she continued to talk to herself lamenting her fate of having to serve Arka in bed as well. "My life was ruined in an instant because of Brother Dinda. Is it because I was complacent with the pampering that Arka's brother gave me, that God is reprimanding me in this way?" Mona's mind had wandered elsewhere, before she knew it the clock had struck three and the girl had fallen asleep from exhaustion. Arka had woken up when the clock struck half past six, he got up to go to the dining table and found no breakfast. He just wanted to punish Mona, so with wide strides, Arka went to the storeroom. Upon opening the door, his eyes were immediately presented with a depressing sight. Arka let out a harsh breath. "Don't sympathize, Arka! This girl is that damn woman's sister," Arka's mind warned, as she rushed over and carried Mona into the girl's room. "Aishhhh, what a pain." Arka left as soon as she put Mona on the bed, stepping into the kitchen to make a cup of coffee, and opting to buy some food for breakfast.Arka got up from her seat and approached Mona, staring intently at the girl. It made Mona's guts that wanted to say more shrink. Pulling her sister-in-law's chin and gripping it to return her gaze"Take a look in the mirror before you say that, Mona!

Arka threw her ass down as soon as she arrived at the office. Exhaling harshly, she quickly works through the piles of paperwork. Two hours pass, the man is still reading and signing the papers. The door to the room opened, revealing the best friend crawling into the secretary's office. Arka looked sarcastically at Reyhan showing off a grin then approached the table."You're so cynical, boss, you haven't satisfied your wife yet! Let's go clubbing with me," Reyhan said, taking a seat on the sofa as he placed the file on the table."You're noisy," Arka growled and grabbed the file to read."Come on, Ka. Have a snack outside once in a while, don't your wife get bored," Reyhan said, not knowing that Arka's wife had run away."Go away! Just disturb me, I have a lot of work to do," said Arka, making Reyhan chuckle."Hahaha, if you change your mind, tell me." Reyhan immediately left."Damn it!" Arka cursed, throwing his pen on the table
Mona's POVMy body ached, especially the sensitive parts. I tried my best to open my eyes and struggled to get up. The pain was getting worse, seeing my body without a single thread. Immediately remembering what happened last night, I couldn't hold back my tears. I could only cry, lamenting that my crown was taken away by my own brother-in-law."I'm dirty...," I muttered between sobs.The sound of the door squeaking made me turn my gaze there. The viewer immediately caught Arka's brother coming out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. The man gave me a sardonic look, and with a leisurely stride he approached."Listen little bitch! No need to cry, get yourself cleaned up and ready for breakfast. You don't have to go to school or do any homework today. Come with me to go somewhere," she said, making me hurt as the term bitch flew from the lips of the brother-in-law who used to always say polite things."Listen no!" she sna
"What do you want me to buy at the pharmacy?" asked Mona when they reached their destination, she hadn't gotten out of the car when Arka handed her the money."Hormonal contraceptive pills, hurry up!" shouts Arka, causing Mona to pause and get out as Arka pushes her.She slowly approached the pharmacy, standing dreamily as the salesperson asked her what she wanted to buy. Arka growled in annoyance then turned off the car engine and got out to approach the silent sister-in-law. The man looked inquiringly at Mona."Miss, we bought hormonal contraceptive pills," Arka said flatly and got back into the car, followed by Mona who finished paying.Mona looked down as soon as she got in. Squeezing the plastic she was carrying, she didn't dare look at Arka. Arka snorted and then drove the four-wheeled vehicle without paying attention to Mona. After reaching his destination, he parked the car in the parking lot."Let's get off!" Arka ordered Mona to
Mona was still on the seat, not moving an inch. The girl squeezed the dress she was wearing, answering with a nod when Arka opened the car door. The man snorted and then aligned his face right in Mona's face."Get down quickly! Or I'll strip you naked right here. You know I never lie about my words," Arka threatened making Mona round her eyes, the man straightened up again and thrust a hand at his sister-in-law."Hurry up!" said Arka making Mona slowly get down and hug Arka's arm making the master glare."Mona is afraid of falling, Brother-in-law," Mona squeaked, making Arka exhale and walk a little faster."Brother, please walk slowly," Mona pleaded as she was about to fall."Ish ... what a pain," Arka complained but slowed her pace. Upon entering Arka immediately circulated her gaze looking for her friend, a man was seen waving. when Arka saw the figure, she quickly approached and sat on the chair. Mona remained standing, mak
Three days passed, since the incident Arka came home late at night. They never saw each other, and by early morning he was gone. Mona felt a little relieved that she hadn't crossed paths with the brother-in-law who had taken away her chastity. "Pyuhhhh, it's so hot today," Mona complained when she reached the cafeteria and ordered chicken noodles."Yes, Mon. My clothes got wet," said Mirna sitting next to Mona, making the girl startle and stroke her chest and shake her head."What if I lose my heart, Mir. You're just shocking," Mona sprayed then smiled when her order was finished."If it falls out, put it back in, if it's hard to glue it," Mirna replied simply and ordered the meatballs."Damn it, you! You think my heart is stuff," Mona growled, hitting Mirna's arm, making the master groan."Don't hit me hard Mon, if I break my arm, what will happen to my heart," Mirna complained, stroking her hand."You're overreacting!
The door opened to reveal a woman holding a broom staring at Mona. Mona grasped the fruit of the hand tightly, then returned the woman's gaze. Mona was afraid of the wrong residence, especially seeing Raka. "Is this Raka's house?" Mona asked."Miss, a friend of Mr. Raka's. Come on in, Auntie will tell Tuan Muda Raka first," the woman invited Mona in."Miss, sit here, I'll make you a drink first," the woman said and went into the kitchen.Not long after, Mona sat on the sofa. She felt the urge to pee, so she walked quickly to the path where Raka's helper had been walking. The moment she heard the conversation between Auntie and Mama Raka, Mona knew because she had met them at school."Mona! You're Raka's guest, who do you think you are," said Wulan as she approached Mona."Auntie, Mona, I need to go to the toilet first. Where is the toilet?" Mona asked, wandering around."Over there Mon, just go straight, then turn left,
Arka approached Raka's father and went to the living room to talk. Mona remained still until the housemaid tapped her on the shoulder and she jumped. Bibi stared in surprise at Mona standing in front of her daughter's door."What's wrong, Miss?" she asked.Mona shook her head in response. "Oh yes, Auntie, is the fruit you brought still in the living room?" Mona asked, returning the gaze of the maid who opened the door."It's in the kitchen, Miss. Aunty just washed it," she replied, making Mona nod and excuse herself to the kitchen to prepare dessert.Mona took some fruit and peeled it and brought it to Raka. Mona placed the plate of peeled apples, pears and bananas on Raka's lap. Just as she ordered Raka to take the medicine, the sound of an incoming whatsapp chat made Mona grab a flat object from her bag.[Go home quickly! Wait for your punishment at home. Until Big Brother arrives first, your punishment will be more severe]. - Arka
"My husband!" called Mona as she opened the door to see Arka sleeping on the bed. "He's sleeping, let's put Ghibran to sleep first," Mona muttered softly, closing the door and putting Ghibran in the baby box. She smiled happily when she saw her baby's adorable face. She fondly stroked her son's chubby cheeks. Then, she rushed to the bathroom to clean her body first. The sound of splashing water could be heard, indicating that Mona was cleaning herself. Arka woke up and looked at the bathroom door. He smiled when he heard his wife humming. "It's a habit to always sing in the shower," Arka muttered under her breath, then reached for her phone and grinned as she read a series of messages from Mona. Arka quickly pretended to be still asleep when she saw the bathroom door open. Mona casually took her clothes and put them on in the room. She casually did that because she thought her husband was still sleeping. While Arka opened his eyes slowly to peek at Mona's activities, the man's
"You're too positive about Dara," Arka grumbled, putting down her cell phone and sitting quietly watching the television. Mona continued to chat with her brother. While Gaia occasionally chimed in, she was more focused on the appetizing dishes. Glancing at the clock, Mona hurried to say goodbye to Dinda because she had been out too long. "Sister, it's been too long. I'll take my leave, my husband will keep blabbering if I don't go home now," Mona said to Dinda's understanding nod. "Well, then be careful." Mona nodded in response, they said goodbye and Mona and her son left immediately. "Mom, Dad must be angry. I've been talking to Auntie for so long," Gaia chirped, to which Mona nodded in reply, as she was texting her husband. "How about it, Gaia. I haven't seen your aunt in a long time, so when I do, it's only natural," Mona replies in her defense. [Honey, I'm on my way home,] - Mona "Why did it take so long to reply, I didn't even read it at all," Mona grumbled to herself, w
Finally Kean took the initiative himself, grabbing his phone and asking Google. The smile was clearly engraved when he knew the meaning of the two lines. He immediately put down the phone and hugged his wife, not forgetting to land a peck on the cheek."Sweetheart, you're pregnant," Kean said in a happy tone, to which Aurel nodded back. "Yes, Honey! Soon we will be parents," said Aurel happily, Kean then released the hug. "Then I'll ask permission from the boss, so I can take you to the hospital," said Kean, which made Aurel smile even more. "Then I'll take my leave, you'll have to work hard to get it done," said Aurel, who was immediately given a thumbs up by Kean. "Assalamualaikum," Aurel said and then answered Kean, the woman immediately stepped away. "Sorry, Sister, I lied earlier. So you don't keep fighting," said one of the women who approached Aurel, making her turn her head. Aurel smiled and nodded. "I understand, thank you. Now I want to say goodbye, I want to meet the
Now they had finished shopping. Mona quickly texted her husband. Asking where Arka was, she rushed to where he was when he told her where he was. "Daddy!" Gaia called out, the girl ran as she carried her groceries, she approached her father and kissed Ghibran on the cheek. "Duh, sorry. You took so long to shop," Gaia said, engaging her little brother in conversation which was greeted by Ghibran's smile, making the woman anxious again and kissing the toddler again. "Alright, let's order some food, you must be hungry," Arka said as he glanced at Gaia and his wife. Mona quickly approached and took Ghibran from her husband's arms. She asked Arka to order some food for her, while Gaia chose her own. Dara still stood looking at her friend's small family with envy in her heart. "Why are you there, come and sit down! You choose what food you want. Later my husband will order it, I don't accept rejections," Mona said which was immediately reciprocated by Dara's nod, the woman quickly
Arka immediately stopped the car, then turned to look ahead. She immediately got out of the four-wheeled vehicle, then approached a girl who was sitting on the road in front of their car. She was holding her chest as she moved her mouth but no sound could be heard. "Sorry, you're okay, right?" Arka asked softly, causing the girl to look up and nod. "Where are you going? No one's hurt, right," Arka asked, to which the girl shook her head again. "Dara!" shrieked Mona as she approached her husband who was looking at the woman who had almost been hit. The woman called Mona immediately turned her head. She smiled at the woman she hadn't seen in years. Mona rushed over and gave Ghibran to Arka. "How are you, you're Dara, right," Mona chatted, to which Dara, a girl only four years her junior, nodded in return. "Where are you going?" Mona asked, causing Dara to duck her head. "Hey, what's wrong with you?" Mona asked again, shaking Dara's body. "You can talk on the side of the ro
Aurel woke up from her sleep, the woman blinked and looked at the man who was now her husband. She quickly glanced at Jan and slowly got up. The pain was still there, she hurried to grab her scattered clothes and put them on. Just about to step into the bathroom, a man's hoarse voice made her stop her steps. "Where are you going, why didn't you wake me up," Kean said, getting up from his seat and grabbing his boxers and putting them on. "I'm going to take a shower, darling, and make my ablutions. It's time for the dawn prayer," Aurel replied without turning around to look at her husband. "Then let's take a shower together," chirped Kean and then approached and carried his wife, making Aurel squeal. "Honey! What the heck, just shock me," Aurel protested as she looked away in embarrassment from feeling her husband's broad chest. "Just holding you, I saw you walk like that. It really hurts, doesn't it?" exclaimed Kean as he asked, to which Aurel nodded slowly. "Even though it's
"Alright, now you eat and then we'll go home," Aurel continued, causing Kean to look up and raise an eyebrow. "Home? I still have a lot of work to do, Rel. Better after I finish the food, you just go home yourself," said Kean in reply to Aurel's shaking. "You have to go home, this is an order from Gaia's father," Aurel said, causing Kean to exhale and nod in compliance. "This must be what Gaia said, right?" asked Kean, who was answered by Aurel's nod, who was now preparing food on the table. "Let's eat, remember to finish it all," Aurel ordered, making Kean look at his future wife's face. "Really, Rel, this is a lot," Kean protested, making Aurel chuckle and pinch her future husband's cheek. "I'm kidding, you're really serious," Aurel said with amusement, scooping up the rice and side dishes and thrusting them into Kean's mouth. "Why are you silent, let's open your mouth. Let's feed each other, until this food runs out," said Aurel then smiled a little when Kean opened his
As morning approached, the atmosphere at Kean's parents' home was bustling. Soon they would bury the body of Kean's father. The man was silent without saying much, he didn't make a sound at all and even filled the stomach that hadn't been filled since he came here. Arka was already there, accompanying his friend. "Hey, be strong, Kean. Let's take your father to his new home," Arka said, making Kean turn to look at his friend. "You have to be strong, if you're fragile. Who will strengthen your mother's heart," Arka continued, making Kean pause and nod. *** Time spun quickly, Kean became more quiet. The man didn't daydream much sometimes. It had now been a week since delivering his father to his new home. "Hey! Work properly, don't daydream too much," Arka scolded when he caught his friend in the toilet, the man glanced at Arka. "Sorry, I'll try to be professional here," Kean said, making Arka raise his eyebrows. "Seriously, I'm trying to be professional in the toilet. You w
"Uh, uh, how come you know each other like this," said Kean in surprise while Mona chuckled at the shocked look on the man's face. "We do!" Gaia exclaimed, making Kean grumble because that wasn't the answer he was asking for. "Are you psychic, you know my candidate's name," said Kean once again, making Gaia turn to look at him. "What candidate, Uncle?" asked Gaia as she leaned forward to stare at Kean. "Uh, anu ...." Kean scratched his head that wasn't itchy, the man saw his lover looking at him while raising an eyebrow. "What the hell, uncle ... come on, don't half-ass it," Gaia scolded and was greeted by the man's grimace. "Come on, you know, answer me, don't just tease Gaia," Arka sneered and Kean snorted. "Anu, Gaia. This is my future wife, Uncle. I'm getting married soon," Kean said quietly. "Ohh, so you're getting married, then," Gaia said, nodding her head. "I'm sorry, uncle, Gaia. If I wait for you to grow up, I'll be an old man." Kean said softly, he w
