Stay or Leave

“I admit you managed to heal the wound I inflicted on him due to your cunning. But you are also the one who grew the wound back even deeper,” said Akmal.

“That’s none of your business, because for sure now Ayunda is mine and you won’t be able to come back with her because whatever happens, I will not let Ayunda go,” said David belittling Akmal.

“Obviously it will be my business Dav,,, you better let Ayunda go and take care of your other wife before I take her back” said Akmal.

“You won’t get it easily, because Ayu already loves me and thinks you’re just her past,” said David arrogantly.

“It doesn’t matter to me if later Ayunda won’t come back to me, the most important thing is that Ayunda can get out of the shackles of your chains that bind her” Akmal said then stood up from his seat to step out.

but before opening the door to the VIP club room, Akmal resumed his speech.

“And prove that you planned what happened to me at that timealthough this explanation will not change his decision, but I will still say that you are the one who set me up with your paid woman” Akmal continued and left David who was holding back anger.

“Fuck,” David cursed, clenching his fists after Akmal was gone.

David finally left the place to continue his journey to the hospital.

I don’t know what David really wants, if David still loves Ayunda but for some reason David treats her just like he wants to satisfy his lust since David has another wife.

But if David doesn’t love him anymore, why doesn’t he want to let Ayunda go?

Is it just because of his obsession with beating Akmal, who in fact is nothing more than himself?

David had arrived at the treatment room of his second wife.

“Honey, you haven’t slept yet?” David asked when he saw that Bella still hadn’t closed her eyes.

“I’m waiting for you, mas,,, he said just accompanying Ms. Ayu for a while but why did it take so long?” Bella said suspiciously.

“Yeah, I just took him home. But earlier I met my business partner when I was at the gas station,” David lied.

somehow David had to lie to Bella just to be with Ayunda longer.

Isn’t Ayunda still his wife?

“You haven’t been with Ms. Ayu for a long time, have you?” said Bella sulkily.

“No,,, never mind you better sleep lateMommy’s asleep too” David said changing the subject.

Then Bella went to sleep with David sitting beside her.

At David’s residence, Ayunda was still sobbing even though it was almost morning. But Ayunda still hasn’t slept. it seems that in the morning Ayunda’s eyes can’t see perfectly because she’s been crying all night.

“I want to go,,, well I have to go for a moment to prove whether Mas David still wants me or notif mas David doesn’t care about me anymore then I have to let him go” Ayunda muttered

The moon has changed to the sun. The morning sign has greeted.

Ayunda, who usually wakes up early and is busy in the kitchen, this time there is no sign of opening her eyes yet.

Mrs. Ratih came home this morning.

“Where’s Ayu bi?” Mrs. Ratih asked her aunt who was preparing breakfast and other necessities to take Mrs. Ratih to the hospital.

“He hasn’t woken up yet, usually Ms. Ayu is the most diligent in getting up in the morning,” said Aunt.

“You lazy bastard, how can you be trusted to get pregnant if you wake up lazy in the morning,” grumbled Mrs. Ratih even though her aunt had said that usually Ayunda is the most diligent in getting up early and preparing breakfast for all family members in this house.

Aunt who heard the master’s grumble could only sigh and shake her head slowly and then return to continue her work.

After finishing preparing the necessities to be brought by Mrs. Ratih, the aunt immediately handed them over.

“This is all, madam,” said AuntContent rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

“Tell the driver to take it to the trunk of the car,” said Mrs. Ratih as she walked away.

After Mrs. Ratih’s departure, Aunt went straight to Ayunda’s room to see Ayunda’s condition. The reason is that it’s not like Ayunda usually shows the bridge of her nose even though it’s already noon.

tock,, tock,, tock,,,

“Mbak Ayu, this is auntie” said Aunt as she continued to knock on Ayunda’s door.

“Ma’am, auntie come in,” said Aunt because there was no answer from inside, finally she opened the door to enter, which happened to be unlocked.

after aunt came in,,, she saw her lady was in a very messy state and her room was a mess.

Then aunt anxiously approached Ayunda who was still lying on her bed without being disturbed by her arrival.

“Ma’am” Auntie called while gently shaking Ayunda’s shoulder.

“Oh my gosh, Ms. Ayu has a fever,” said Aunt Worried.

“Auntie,” Ayunda said, opening her eyes

“Yes ma’am, Ms. Ayu has a fever. Let’s just go to the clinic, sis” said Mrs. Isah inviting Ayunda to be checked.

“You don’t have to, Bi, just take medicine for fever and it will heal later,” Ayunda said weakly, not long after saying that Ayunda closed her eyes again.

Bi Isah who saw that tried to wake her up but Ayunda didn’t open her eyes either, as if she had fainted.

Aunt immediately contacted David, because the driver was still taking Mrs. Ratih to the hospital and had not yet returned.

But David did not pick up the call from Aunt. Then the aunt switched to calling Leo, the sister of this lady.

“Hello,” replied Leo from the other side who happened to have just arrived home with his wife and children, whose children had been allowed to go home.

“Mr. Leo, this is Mrs. Isah, Ms. Ayu has a high fever and faints, sir,” said Aunt panicked

Leo who heard his sister was sick immediately turned off the phone after saying he would be there.

“Honey, mas, go to Ayu’s place first. Ayu faints. You take care of Leona first, okay?” Leo said goodbye to his wife, which Lisa nodded.
