Morana. A name that describes a paradox in life, how she takes on an antagonistic role in her own story in order to survive in the harshness of life. A woman who has to face demons from her past when she meets Gabriel, a young painter and doctor who has just lost his girlfriend. However, what is more complicated is; Gabriel is the older brother of Quirino, a man who has been her lover for four years. Or, so he thought…
View MoreQuirino walked down the corridor of the hospital, every step he took seemed to have its own meaning for him. Every step brought him closer to Morana. Every step is filled with regret, anger, disappointment and other feelings that Quirino cannot explain in words. He was really angry when he learned that Daniel had sent Morana to a mental health institution without her consent. How come? When Quirino last met Morana and their relationship was still pretty good, Morana didn't show anything. Except for the fact that she had visited Dr. Sherry, for several meetings, everything seemed fine with her. Quirino knew this because at that time, he had ordered several people to follow Morana because she suddenly disappeared and her whereabouts was unknown. There were no indications that Morana needed to be treated. Hence, how could Morana end up in a place like this now?! Something is wrong with Daniel and Morana's relationship! Quirino wouldn't have left Morana if he knew Daniel would take
As Daniel had expected, Quirino was waiting for him in his study.Daniel stood frozen in the doorway, stared at Quirino's back which was turned away from him, stared at his row of medical books, but it seemed that he was only doing that so that he would have something to do.Because even though Quirino heard the sound of the study door opening and closing and Daniel's footsteps echoing in the empty room, he remained unmoved and still did not turn around.Even though the conversation hasn't started and Quirino still refuses to look at him, Daniel knows and understands that the six months that have passed have not changed anything about Quirino and his feelings for Morana."Quirino," said Daniel who then walked over to his brother. He stopped just a few steps away from him, not sure if he should approach him any closer.Quirino slowly turned his body and when their gazes met, everything became foreign to both of them. It was as if they were no longer the two brothers who were very close
Quirino doesn't know whether his decision is right or not, but one thing is certain, he wants to return.It was a desire he had harbored for a long time and now he has a reason to return.The only reason he wanted to come back.After yesterday's call, Quirino was very sure that it was Morana's voice. It must be her voice. Quirino knows her voice very well.Even though Morana didn't say much and only said his name, Quirino could feel the despair that the girl was facing, just from one sentence.Was it because Quirino had overly interpreted this brief moment? Or was this just his delusion because he kept thinking about Morana?Whatever the reason and somehow with how Quirino felt he decided to return, and whatever it was… here Quirino was, waiting impatiently on his flight.Quirino felt that he was really crazy, with just that one word and Quirino had run as fast as he could to approach Morana.Quirino knew that what Morana used was his brother's number and how Morana spoke in a whisper
"Sorry, I can't." Quirino said in a hoarse voice to Silvi who was already half naked underneath.After saying that, Quirino immediately got up from his position on top of Silvi's body and then picked up his shirt which had been scattered on the floor.Silvi widened her eyes when she felt the weight of Quirino's warm body leaving her.They haven't even started yet and Quirino is about to leave? How can he be so cold?Silvi immediately buttoned up the shirt she was wearing and then ran after Quirino who was about to leave her apartment."Quirino!" Silvi, who was only wearing a shirt and underwear, immediately ran into Quirino's back and hugged him tightly, pressing her face against the man's broad back.Quirino was not surprised, did not resist or move in response, he just stood there, frozen. Letting Silvi say what she wants to say."Quirino, give me a chance," said Silvi with suppressed tears.All this time Silvi thought Quirino was the right man for her, that their social status was
Silvi pulled Quirino's neck and tried to kiss him, but Quirino quickly pulled away from her and pushed her body away.Quirino didn't think she was a woman and couldn't control his strength when he tried to avoid her. Letting her fall down.This made Silvi groan in pain, but Quirino paid no heed to it and left, slamming the door of his study when he came out.Turns out that putting Silvi back in her position wasn't a good idea, but got her fired again would only provoke his father's anger and that was the last thing Quirino wanted in the midst of this endless turmoil in his heart.Tonight it looks like he will spend his time at the bar again...Only by drinking some alcohol was Quirino able to escape from Morana's shadow, even if it was only for a moment… it didn't matter, even if only for a moment Quirino wanted to enjoy his own life without the disturbance of the woman who had become his brother's.Morana… how are you…?Quirino's heart whispered softly.# # # Quirino woke up with hi
Too long…Morana has been gone too long.Daniel felt something was wrong and his suspicions were later confirmed by the commotion that occurred in the toilet, where Morana had gone.Immediately Daniel got out of the car and headed for the women's restroom which Morana had entered and found Morana's body had been carried by a man.From Morana's arm, there was a cut that was still bleeding.Among the crowd that surrounded her, Morana saw Daniel who was charging forward while pushing several people in front of her while saying something that Morana couldn't catch.Every sound around her was ringing painfully and all Morana felt was a numb feeling.The last thing Morana remembered was looking into Daniel's eyes.One word that can describe the man right now is; Fright.For a moment Morana was happy to see the fear in his eyes, that means he still cares right?But then, when Morana blinked, the darkness that covered her made her stay there.Cold and silent darkness.A familiar place for her
Morana stared blankly at the pamphlet in her hands. Her heart beat faster when she saw her name on the registration form.Daniel was so careless because he thought Morana wouldn't find out about this, or maybe because his guilt messed up the decisions he was about to make.Morana looked at the pamphlet and personal data form which contained all the information about her.She had to bite her lip to steady herself, her trembling hands couldn't stop as if she could feel her heart that was racing so fast and made her wonder why Daniel could do this to her.Mental health institutions? Those words made Morana clench her fists tightly, feeling the tide of emotion that kept convincing her that she was worthless, that he has been dumped.No!Morana shook her head vigorously. Daniel shouldn't have done this to her.Seeing Daniel walking over, Morana immediately returned the flyer back to the backseat and tried to look calm, as if she didn't see anything or… didn't know anything.Without Morana
Two weeks had passed since Daniel returned to giving the medicines to Morana, but she didn't show any significant changes, if one could say, she was getting worse and worse.Because Dr. Sherry was out of town and it was very difficult to contact, Daniel didn't want to bother her either.Dr. Sherry also needs time for herself and her children.Therefore, Daniel did not try to contact her and continued to consult Dr. Garry. In the past two weeks, Morana had seen him four times and changed drugs twice.But, she still didn't show any significant change and now she started refusing to take the medicine anymore.“That medicine is going to kill me…” Morana said with tears flowing, one night when Daniel was going to give medicine to Morana. "Trust me…""Morana..." Daniel sighed tiredly. He was really tired of facing Morana.It's not that Daniel doesn't love Morana, he really does love her but on the other hand, he doesn't know what to do with her.The tiredness that Daniel feels when he finis
Daniel stared at Morana's sleeping face, he didn't want to disturb her.This afternoon, Anna called him and asked Daniel to come home because his father came with an aide and beat Morana.Of course, this news shocked Daniel who immediately returned to the apartment and found Morana sleeping soundly.Even when the sun had set like this, Morana still hadn't woken up, even though he had tried several times to wake her up, but Morana didn't respond and only muttered something incoherent before going back to sleep.Daniel let Morana rest while observing her swollen lips and several bruised parts of her body. Of course, Morana's condition like this made Daniel furious at her father.He couldn't understand why Lucas Wyatt would use physical violence against Morana? Isn't something like this unnecessary?Daniel has also tried several times to call his father's telephone number, but nothing because the number cannot be reached, as well as when Daniel tried to call his house.His father was app
Some people live in their own world, in their dark and gloomy world, they find freedom.Not many people understand this, and not many want to understand by heart every unspoken word and every unheard cry.Morana let her lips be kissed by Quirino, while a burning cigarette in her left hand almost burned the remaining tobacco into a thin puff of white smoke that emitted its characteristic scent.Quirino bit Morana's lower lip resentfully because she didn't get a response from the woman. While her body was in his arms, but her mind seemed to be drifting somewhere else.This wasn't the first time Morana had treated Quirino like that, one could almost say she had always treated him like that.With mounting frustration, Quirino grabbed the blouse that Morana was wearing and tearing it to shreds.It was only after he did that Morana gave him a little attention by slapping Quirino hard on the cheek."You don't have to slap me!" The angry Quirino jumped down from the bed and walked to the clos
