They both started sweating profusely and couldn't sit still. They were racking their brains, trying to remember what they had consumed earlier, attempting to figure out what could be causing the discomfort they were feeling."Maybe it was the drink that kid offered outside the motel earlier?" Nayla suggested, her expression thoughtful.Michael nodded, trying to remember. "Yes, maybe that," he replied, recalling the purchase of a drink from the little boy in the middle of the road on the way to the motel earlier."Maybe that drink contains something stimulating ..."However, before Michael could discuss further, he felt increasingly uncomfortable in the sensitive area that had already started reacting. He felt short of breath and his head started to spin.With eyes full of desire and breath that made him pant, he looked at Nayla, who also appeared increasingly restless with sweat dripping, and the woman looked uncomfortable with her body's condition
Sefia's words were like an unexpected blow to Zavier. His face paled, his eyes searching for an answer from Sefia who stood before him."What did you say?" "Don't accuse my wife without evidence!" Zavier urged with a trembling voice, but full of uncontrollable anger.Sefia paused for a moment, realizing that her words had triggered an emotional outburst from Zavier. However, she remained steadfast in her stance. "You want proof?" he said firmly.Okay!!!Without waiting for Zavier's answer, Sefia immediately took out her phone and showed the photos that Kayla had sent earlier.The photos show Nayla with Michael, depicting tender moments between them.Zavier was shocked!Zavier's anger reaction was getting worse. His eyes bulged. He felt like the world around him was collapsing in an instant. "Where did this photo come from?" Where are they now?" she asked with a trembling voice, her eyes fixed on the phone w
However, before he could open the car door, Sefia caught up from behind, her hand pulling Zavier's arm with desperation."Zav, wait!" We have to think first, you can't drive the car in this condition!" Sefia exclaimed with an almost desperate voice.But Zavier did not listen. His mind was fixated on the need to find Nayla, and he couldn't let that opportunity slip away.Roughly, he swatted Sefia's hand away and got into the car."Sefia, I want concrete proof with my own eyes," Zavier replied without turning.Sefia saw Zavier's hard and focused expression, she knew she wouldn't be able to stop him.Brmmmm ...The sound of the gas pedal being pressed hard could be heard, and Zavier's car sped away quickly from Sefia's house.With a heavy heart, she realized that she couldn't let Zavier go alone. Although she felt scared and anxious, she knew she had to protect the man she loved.Without
Zavier shook his head, trying to understand this complicated situation. "I don't know." "But we need to find out, Kayla's accusation might not be true," he said firmly.All the statements filled Zavier and Sefia's minds as they stood at the threshold, trying to understand this complicated situation.Suddenly, Nayla rolled over in her bed, her eyes slowly opening. She fumbled around her surroundings, still half-conscious."Nayla..." Zavier whispered gently, his steps approaching the bed. There was no longer any trace of anger behind the man's cold face as he saw his wife looking exhausted.Nayla stretched slightly, observing the presence of Zavier and Sefia with a sense of wonder."How did you end up sharing a room here?" What happened?" Zavier asked gently.Nayla rubbed her eyes, trying to understand the situation that was happening. She felt confused, but tried to focus as she noticed Zavier and Sefia's presence in t
Nayla idly played with and moved her toes to pass the nearly hour-long boring journey.Not long after, a car entered their yard. Nayla prepared to get out by unfastening the seatbelt that crossed her body."Wait a moment." Zavier's voice faded as the man got out of the car and walked towards the other side of the car door.Unexpectedly, Zavier did not let Nayla walk by herself, entering the house as soon as they arrived. On the contrary, he gently carried her from the car and brought her into the house, heading to their room.Nayla felt a bit surprised by Zavier's unusual treatment, but in her heart, she felt warm and touched by her husband's attention and tenderness. She felt like there was a glimmer of hope illuminating the darkness that had enveloped her mind.Zavier gently placed Nayla on the bed, ensuring that she was comfortable before he moved away from her side. "Sleep," Zavier whispered softly, his eyes filled with unusual tenderness.
Seeing Nayla's condition, who desired a release, Zavier smiled. They are a legitimate husband and wife.Of course, he would be more than happy to help Nayla release the excitement that had built up due to the medication that had made her irritable.Zavier immediately welcomed Nayla's blooming lips and gave her a gentle kiss. Nayla quickly responded, grabbing as much of the moment as she could to satisfy her desire that her mind couldn't comprehend at the moment.Watching how the woman who had been his wife for the past two years acted on top of him and took the helm in their bed, Zavier felt very special. He thoroughly enjoyed every maneuver given by his wife.Previously, Nayla always looked like a statue under Zavier's grip. Tonight feels so warm and fiery because the two of them are engaging in a passionate scene they have never experienced before.After hours had passed, Nayla slumped weakly with sweat soaking her back."I-I, I'm so tired
Nayla woke up on a bright morning, reminded of the important audition awaiting her today. With a heart full of enthusiasm, she reached for Zavier's hand, still asleep, and gently woke him up."Zav, I'm sorry I have to wake up earlier today," Nayla whispered gently, trying not to disturb her husband's sleep too much.Zavier stretched and opened his eyes lazily. "Hmm? "What happened?" he asked in a sleepy voice."I have an audition this morning, Zav," Nayla explained with a smile. "I'm going out for a bit."Zavier, still half-conscious, nodded in understanding, even though in his mind, he thought that Nayla had gone grocery shopping like before. "Okay, dear." "Don't forget to buy bread at the store across the street," he said, before falling back asleep on the pillow.Nayla smiled slightly upon hearing it, gently kissed her husband's forehead before getting out of bed. She quickly put on the clothes she had prepared earlier and go
Zavier was surprised to see Sefia and the food she brought. "Sefia!" How did you get in?Seeing Sefia also bringing her favorite bread and chicken soto, Zavier immediately said, "You saved my life!" he exclaimed enthusiastically.Sefia just laughed at Zavier's reaction. "Of course, who else but your best ex-lover?" he said while sitting next to Zavier and placing the food on the table.Zavier thanked her while starting to enjoy the food that Sefia had brought. Although still feeling a bit anxious because he couldn't contact Nayla, Sefia's presence and her food made him feel better."Where is Nayla?" "I tried to call her, but her phone was off," Sefia asked. It was obvious that she was just pretending to ask.Zavier fell silent, and his face looked indifferent.Sefia smiled and said, "Maybe he's busy with something." Don't worry too much. The important thing now is, you have to eat first!Zavier nodded in ag
Sefia took out her cell phone and called Kayla. Telling her everything that happened with some spice of course.“So you're going to help me again?” Sefia asked at the end of their conversation.“Of course, you wait and see. No need to respond to anything while it's happening. Focus and go see how Zavier is doing and give him your attention.”Kayla spoke firmly and as if victory was already there.“Doctor Bram, right? It's easy business then.” Kayla's words sounded clear and firm, making Sefia start to feel relieved and supported.The call was completed and Sefia smiled with satisfaction. She could already be relieved to fall asleep.Meanwhile, Zavier heard the shocking news about Nayla. Without waiting any longer, he immediately rushed to the patient room, where Nayla was being treated.Arriving there, Zavier in his wheelchair saw Nayla lying on the bed with a pale face and tired eyes. A bandage was
When a doctor came out of the treatment room, Bram immediately approached. “How is he, Doc?” he asked in a hoarse voice.The doctor sighed, looking at Bram with a serious expression. Of course he knew Doctor Bram well.“Nayla has second degree burns on several parts of her body. Although the wounds are not too severe, we still have to do intensive care to prevent infection and aid her recovery.”Bram nodded, trying to compose himself.“His face is unharmed, just a little on his calves and back,” the doctor continued.“I want to make sure she gets the best care,” he said in a firm tone. “Whatever is needed, I will provide it.”The doctor nodded and patted Bram's shoulder sympathetically before heading back inside the treatment room.Bram shifted his gaze to the other room at the end of the corridor, where Sefia was being treated. The wound on Sefia's face looked quite severe,
Sefia laughed in a low, triumphant tone and threw a match onto a pile of straw that had been set up not far from where Nayla and Joen lay.As the flames began to lick at the weathered walls of the hut. Thick smoke soon filled the air, covering their vision with a suffocating blanket of darkness.Bayu was startled and immediately returned to the hut. Bayu struggled against panic, his body tense as he tried to drag Joen and Nayla away from the fire, out of harm's way.“You're crazy, Sefia!” shouted Bayu again, his voice hoarse from the smoke and mounting anger. A semi-conscious Joen coughed, trying to understand what was happening.Sefia just looked at Bayu with a cold stare. “I did what had to be done,” she said firmly. “We can't keep waiting, Bayu. It's the only way to make sure they won't hunt us down.”Bayu gritted his teeth, resisting the urge to retaliate against Sefia with just as much anger. “This isn
“When can I see Joen?” he asked in a voice trembling violently, with a tone full of hope and curiosity.Sefia laughed softly. “You'll get the hint soon enough. But for now, let's make sure everything stays under control. I'll tell you the next step,” she said while looking at the recording. Checking that there weren't any mistakes.Nayla stood anxiously and frustrated, hoping and praying that Joen would return to her soon without having to go through more dangerous games from Sefia.Sefia, still with a sly smile on her face, took out a water bottle from her bag. “Now, Nayla, drink this,” she said as she held out the bottle.“Obey, and I will take you to see Joen.”Nayla looked doubtfully at the bottle. “What did you put in this water?” she asked, her voice trembling with fear.Sefia just laughed lightly. “Oh, nothing dangerous. Just something that will make you feel more... re
“You can't just hold Joen as a bargaining chip,” he said in a trembling, yet determined voice.Sefia smiled sarcastically. “I can do anything to achieve my goals, Nayla. So, if you want Joen to return safely, I suggest you comply with my request.”Nayla felt her heart in her throat, the uncertainty and anxiety making it difficult for her to think clearly. But she knew one thing: she couldn't let Sefia win this way.“If I have to say that to see Joen, I will. But remember, Sefia, what I say in front of the camera won't change what I feel in my heart,” he said with determination.“Yes... only you need to know that. Zavier only needs to know what you said through this video.”Nayla swallowed her saliva and held back her anger, for Joen's sake.“You know, I want a perfect life with Zavier. To be his girlfriend for a long time and this is the result? You come out of nowhere and get married whi
The two of them walked into the hut cautiously. As her eyes began to adjust to the dim light in the room, Nayla saw Sefia sitting casually on a rickety chair, a sardonic smile gracing her face.“Gee, poor Zavier,” Sefia quipped in a mocking tone. “He's paralyzed, and you were so quick to replace him with a handsome young doctor,” she continued as she shot Bram a mocking look.“Perhaps...” Sefia ruffled his hair and tossed it gently back, “you've been having an affair for quite some time.”“Ahh, that stupid guy, always looking at your innocent-looking but rotten self!” she continued with a chuckle.Nayla felt the anger suddenly heat up inside her. “Don't twist the truth, Sefia. And cut down on your unnecessary talk. I'm here for Joen. Where is he?!” Her tone was firm and demanding, her eyes never leaving Sefia's face.Sefia chuckled, then stood up and folded her arms across her
“But... it's about Joen,” Nayla stammered, torn between fear and the desire to save her son. “I can't wait any longer.”“We can't involve the police, I-”Bram took Nayla's hand gently, his eyes sharp and determined. “Don't you need a driver, Mrs. Nayla?” he said with a faint smile, trying to calm the tension that surrounded them both.Nayla felt momentarily calmed by Bram's light tone. “Yes, but this could be dangerous. I don't want to involve you...”“We don't know either, it's just-”Bram laughed softly, interrupting Nayla's words, “Mrs. Nayla, I'm a doctor, used to dealing with emergency situations. And besides, you need help. I won't let you face this alone.”Nayla sighed, finally nodding in agreement. “Alright, but we should get going. I don't want to waste time.”Bram nodded, “Wait here, I'll get the car.”Not long
Nayla nodded, trying to calm herself down. However, in her heart, she knew that this problem was much bigger than just a missing child.Sefia and Bayu couldn't just show up for no reason. There was something they were planning, and it made Nayla feel uncomfortable.“I have to find Joen as soon as possible,” Nayla said in a firm voice. “Whatever they want, I won't let them harm my son.”With trembling hands, Nayla immediately contacted Sefia, but her call went unanswered. Sefia deliberately ignored the call.Nayla grew increasingly panicked, trying once more, but there was still no answer.“Connected?” asked Bram sympathetically.Nayla shook her head languidly. “I'll try one more time.”Doctor Bram, seeing Nayla's anxiety, immediately volunteered. “Let me try,” he said as he reached out for Nayla's cell phone. “Maybe she'll be more interested in answering calls from numb
“You'll find it, dear. Why don't we search together one more time?” the child's mother asked confidently and enthusiastically.Nayla nodded her head and they searched the hospital and its surroundings together, along with some security guards. Two security guards stayed behind to check the CCTV footage.Nayla was happy with the help. However, in her heart, she knew there was something more than just this lost incident. Her instincts told her there was a hidden threat stalking them all.As Nayla hurriedly searched the hospital corridors, she didn't see anyone emerge from the corner of the room. In her panic, she bumped into someone's body quite hard. Instantly, her body staggered backwards.“Look out!” exclaimed a male voice in a firm yet soothing tone.Before Nayla could fall, the man swiftly caught her. The man's sturdy hands wrapped around her waist, keeping her from falling. Nayla looked up, her eyes meeting a pair of sha
