CONFISCATED WIFE
SIDEWALK

Apparently, Marvin took Serena to his room. But this time it was not the usual room Serena occupied. Except Marvin's room. She sat Serena on the sofa.

"Why come here?"

Serena circled the state of the room whose nuance was so masculine. The color of the wall paint and furniture is dominated by black, white, and gray.

"Who did it, huh?!"

Marvin checked Serena's hand. The remains of the bond still remain on Serena's wrist.

"Why are you asking?! Aren't you glad that I got hurt?!"

"What?! All that can hurt you is me, Serena! Say it! What's name?! Boy or girl! If you don't answer! I'll find out!" his jolt gripped Serena's chin.

"If I said it, what would you do?!" He held Marvin's hand perched on his chin.

"I'm gonna get him out of school! How dare he interrupt---."

Marvin's lips fell silent. It's impossible in front of Serena he said 'my girl.'

"Bother who?! Just tell me I'm your toy! Yeah, right?!" accuse Serena.

"Don't make me emotional! Say it! Who?!" While pressing Serena's forehead with her forehead until Serena's head rests on the back of the sofa.

"Well, I'll say it, but please don't interfere! I just want the hazing to be no more in that school. So please don't overdo it!"

Serena explained a careless look away. Marvin's warm, flavorful exhalation left Serena out of concentration. He is sure if this man always uses mouth freshener vitamins.

"Serena, listen to me! If you are constantly bullied, you will be stressed! That's because the limbic system in your body records bullying activity! Then your brain will show the bully as acaman and trigger stress! If you are really stressed, your achievements will be hampered! Understand?!"

"You said stress?! I won't stress easily just because of bullyan. Ever since my papa went bankrupt, I've been bullied a lot and it has had no impact on my achievements! I can still learn well! I'm just stressed out because you're Mr. Boss Marvin Mahesa Jacob!" he screamed while pushing Marvin's chest.

"What did you say?!"

"Yes-I'm fine! So you don't have to interfere!"

But the girl's eyes suddenly glazed over. Apparently, what he said was a lie. In fact, in her old school, Serena suffered greatly from the bullyan.

The bullying had destroyed the condition of his soul, especially the condition of his confidence in others. This prompted him to avoid everyone he met. It was because Serena was always embarrassed and she had trouble building up her confidence and spirit.

As a result, he had no passion to be better than before. After school, Serena often spends her time locked up in her room. Serena also did not dare to tell her mother because she did not want to make her mother worry and increase her pain burden.

"Since when were you bullied in your old school? What since your dad went bankrupt?"

Looking at Serena's teary eyes, Marvin could not bear to rebuke her. He spoke slowly while sitting next to Serena.

"Before my papa went bankrupt, I-I was bullied," he said.

Serena lowered her head while squeezing her fingers. A habit he always does when feeling depressed or cornered.

"W-what?! Why are you being bullied?! At that school you are still bullied?! Isn't there always a bodyguard on your side?! What is their work then?! 'Kok they didn't help you?!"

Marvin is emotional. His breathing went up and down because of holding back anger. Really, he just found out about this fact.

"My guards aren't always by my side. They just look after me when I go to the cafeteria, and do activities outside of school" she explained. Then the girl covered her face and lowered herself until her face was stuck to her lap. Marvin mute.

Serena. The girl was a victim of bullying. It's worth it if he prefers to be alone. Behind the story of the luxury of his life to be dubbed as 'princes,' the girl turned out to have felt life in the midst of deep fear.

"Huks."

Serena crying. He recalled the bad treatment he had experienced. The girl once felt a condition where she could only see other friends having fun together, without ever feeling the same way. Serena is afraid to socialize with others.

"Serena."

Marvin's hand is outstretched. Gently rubbed Serena's back.

"Why would I dare throw myself into the pool and think of dying? That's because I was once depressed. I once wanted to end my life. But successfully helped by my nanny. Then I asked them not to tell my mom or dad about it. Huks, if they think I'm very happy with my wealth at the time, they're wrong."

"Serena."

Marvin approached again until his body stuck to Serena.

"I-I was just pretending to be happy with my luxurious life."

Marvin contemplates. He knows that bully victims often show a variety of symptoms of psychological problems, even after the bullying takes place. The most common conditions that appear are depression and anxiety disorders. It is only fitting that this girl always rebelled and made trouble to make Manda raise her hand because she felt unable to handle it.

In addition, the influence of bullying on the mental health of adolescents and children is a sense of sadness, low self-esteem, loneliness, loss of interest in things they usually like, and changes in sleep patterns or eating patterns.

She understood why Serena was so spoiled and afraid to sleep alone. Little by little, the man began to understand Serena's condition.

"What are they doing? On what basis did they bully you? Why don't you ever report, hmm?"

Who had wanted to scold Serena, finally did not. He pulled Serena's shoulder to face him.

As an educated adult, Marvin was well aware that the effects of bullying later in life would lead to psychosomatic symptoms such as psychological problems that trigger physical health disorders. This is not only true for adults, but also for children and adolescents like Serena.

"They ...."

Serena slowly confronts Marvin with her body. He did not expect that the dark life in his old school would be told to this man. A man who is even a part of the source of problems in his life.

"Let's tell me, Serena. Don't be afraid."

Marvin lifted up and cupped Serena's face. This time with a gentle treatment.

Victims of bullying also often have difficulty sleeping well. Even though you can sleep, not infrequently the time is actually decorated by various nightmares. While sleeping with her, Serena was often delirious, showing a sad expression, and calling out to her mother.

"They bullied my body .., ju-also bullied my wealth," he explained.

His lips trembled with restraint and harbored a deep heartache and wound within him.

"W-what?"

Marvin wiped the tears on Serena's cheek. His feelings for this girl became even more confusing.

"Me-they judged my body as sexy and accused me of having surgery on my butt and chest, huks. In fact, I-I also never asked to be born in this state." Shaking his head.

"W-what? Goddamn it!" Marvin is back emotionally.

"What else did they say! Tell me about Serena! Don't just shut up!" He shook Serena's shoulder. But after that, Marvin immediately hugged Serena.

"Sorry," he continued. He gently rubbed Serena's hair.

"They always accuse ji-if my papa's wealth isn't worth it. Before the gambling syndicate was known, there were already those who accused my papa of being a bookie. Huks, even though during my school there, papa never showed his identity. I-there's also accused my papa of corruption."

"Serena."

"I-I don't dare to tell anyone for fear that their guesses are true. Huuu."

"Serena."

Only that word can be said from Marvin's lips.

"Huuu, a-there are a lot of bad students who asked me to show proof that my body is bu-not the result of surgery" he explained. Then her crying grew.

"What?! Did you show it?! Tell me Serena!"

Marvin's hands clenched. He stood up while re-mas his hair strong.

"Hulu."

Serena did not answer. The girl shuffled, hugged her knees and sobbed. Marvin tried to calm himself down. Then he approached Serena and hugged her.

"A-I don't know why I could tell you this dark story. Should have, I-I didn't tell anyone. W-what else on you."

"Serena! Say it! Have you ever proven it and shown it?! Or, are you intentionally showing it as proof?! Tell me Serena! And I make sure the person who harassed you will die at my hands!" repelled.

"Why? Wh-why do you care about me? The point is, once they find out I'm broke, they're more than happy to bully me."

"That's not what I asked Serena! Say it! Is there another man who touched your body besides me?!" his yell.

Then he touched the soft part of Serena's body that his friend thought had been operated on.

"If I-I say there, a-are you going to accuse me of being a cheap woman? If I say no, w-will you believe it?"

"Tell me Serena! Don't beat around! Okay, I remind you again! You belong to me Serena! And I will destroy those who dare to form mine! Understand?!"

He restrains Serena and insinuates the girl's body. Breath of Marvin hunting. Her chest seemed to be burning hot while her mind automatically imagined that another man had seen and touched Serena's beautiful body.

"A-You don't-you don't need to know! Huuu, I regret having told this to the person who had obviously been harassing my entire body! You've even taken my chastity Marvin!" shout Serena.

"What?! Quickly say Serena! Don't make me curious! Or I will take and break your sanctity!"

This time while revealing the clothes Serena and pin two signs of love on the body of the girl.

"Ohh, mmm .... Huks. Y-you're crazy! You pervert, Marvin!" Serena thrashing.

"Eat her, quickly tell me and be honest with me Serena!"

He put Serena's shirt back on. Then he approached the girl's face to clean her tears. Marvin cleans Serena's tears with his lips. What a sweet treatment that makes Serena even more hate him.

"Hulu." Serena kept crying.

"Hey, don't cry anymore." Marvin cupped his cheeks.

"To-please don't treat me like this. Please ..., do not give false and false affection and hope to me, Mr. Boss. Let me hate you completely, don't get my feelings caught up in this dilemma." The girl was trying to get to Marvin.

"I-you mean?"

"I-I've been hurt and suffered, I've kept a lot of bitter memories and anguish in the depths of my heart. Ja-so ..., can you not add any more wounds to my body?"

"Serena." Marvin peeped at the girl's cheek.

"The gaping wound inside me is huge, Boss sir. I bore shame when my papa became public gossip, and I suffered greatly when bullied all-out by my friends. Huks, every night, I must also hear the cries of my mother and sisters. W-Is there not a little bit of pity in your heart for me?"

Marvin sculpting. She looked at Serena with a dimming look.

"Please enjoy my body as you please, but please .... Please help me avoid this feeling." Serena hit his chest. Marvin held his hand.

"I told you not to use your heart and your feelings! You gotit?! I am your enemy! Our parents are fighting! Understand that Serena!"

"But I can't!" Serena shook her head.

"Could be! Got to!" Marvin firmly.

"Huu. I'm afraid Mr Boss! I'm takuuut!" he screamed while turning his face.

"What are you afraid of, Serena?!"

"Huu. I-I'm afraid .. I'm afraid to like you," she replied. Then covered his face with both palms and sobbed.

Marvin riveted. He immediately sat himself under the sofa, stared at the ceiling of the room, and held his suddenly rumbling chest.

"To-please kill me. I'm Mr. Boss. If suicide is a sin, maybe ... It would be better if I were killed instead" Serena continued.

"But ... God is killing the murderers who are doing the killing intentionally. As an ordinary human being, I also do not want to get the punishment of hell for killing you" said Marvin.

"Alright, then .. I hope you work hard and continue to hurt my feelings. Hopefully what you do can make me die sooner," Serena said as she rubbed a red mark just pinned by Marvin on her body.

No, this is not a sign of love as people generally say. For Serena, this was a sign of torture.

"I'm also hurt, Serena. Do you think I'm okay? No, I'm not okay" Marvin murmured.

In the end, both of them just fell silent and dissolved in their respective feelings.

"Serena."

"Sir Boss."

At the same time, they greeted each other. Even looking at each other at the same time.

"Why?"

They say that at the same time. Serena smiled spontaneously. With Marvin. The two looked at each other with smiles.

Then I don't know who started it, the two got closer to each other. Marvin grabs Serena's hand and leads her to bed.

After Serena lay down, Marvin let go of her tie. Then open one by one the buttons of his shirt until his upper body is plain. Serena looked at Marvin without making a sound, and she kept staring at Marvin's face as the man's hands opened one by one the buttons of Serena's clothes.

What are they gonna do? I don't know.
