“What? You and Alex agreed to stay at Alex's apartment?” Big Mistress Smith asked in a slightly high tone to ascertain whether what Sherin said was true or just plain trite.
“Iya mah's.. After Sherin thought that if we both lived there, we would be more independent. And as a wife, Sherin can also be more free to carry out the duties of Sherin mah. Like cooking and serving the needs of Alex the other.” Sherin replied with a smile that adorned her lips. Despite the truth, Sherin is being very nervous as well as being scared right now. Sherin was afraid of getting tantrums from her mother-in-law who was so firm and fierce.
“What did you say? Self-sufficient? Cook it? Hey Sherin's. You're insulting my family?” The tone of the big lady Smith's question grew even higher. Both of his eyes glanced sharply at Sherin who already knew it was bound to happen.
“E.. ee.. I mean Sherin's not so mah. But Sherin just.”
“Enough Sherin. I don't want to hear any of your reasons. Because it doesn't need anything. I'll let you guys stay at Alex's apartment. But you have to hire people there. I do not want to be said as a cruel in-law for letting my pregnant daughter-in-law work to take care of the apartment and her own needs.”
Sherin could only lower her head. There was no choice but to agree on what her mother-in-law wanted. All that Sherin did for Alex's confession to her son.
“Maybe you used to live hard Sherin. But you also have to know yourself and know who you are now. You're the son-in-law of the Smith family. Don't act like a fool and can't afford Sherin.”
Sherin closed both of her eyes. This time the insults were plainly explained the great madam Smith told him. Sherin realized that she was not born into a wealthy family like the Smith family. But the life that Sherin lived since childhood was not so difficult either. Sherin can get whatever Sherin wants without having to work first. It was because his parents were so loving and willing to do anything for him and his brother.
“One more Sherin. With you deciding to stay in Alex's apartment, that means you're ready for the consequences. And if something bad happens to my future grandchildren, you have to take responsibility. You understand?”
“Iya mah.” Let's just say Sherin's got what her mother-in-law said. Sherin believes Alex will definitely keep her word by no longer hurting her if they really move into Alex's apartment.
The great madam Smith stared from top to bottom at Sherin's simple appearance. The woman shook her head slowly with a sinister look before she finally passed leaving Sherin alone in the living room.
Sherin sighed. Sherin hopes her decision is not wrong this time.
Alex is happy to finally be able to return to live freely in his apartment. The man was eager to return with his free life of playing with women. For Sherin, Alex will no longer hurt the woman because Alex is lazy to see Sherin. Alex won't harass Sherin as long as Sherin doesn't.
The next morning, the two soon move into Alex's apartment. Although Alex had objected because one of the workers at his parents' house had to come with him and Sherin to help take care of all their needs. But Alex finally felt it wasn't important. The most important thing is that he can be free again without direct supervision from his parents, especially his mother who is very firm and never wants to be denied it.
On the way to his apartment, Alex drives his own car with Sherin and their housekeeper sitting in the back seat. Alex can't wait to show Sherin that Alex never had a sense of what Sherin thought. Alex also wants Sherin to see for herself how free she is when she's with another woman. And Alex had the right choice for her to use in showing Sherin all that.
About half an hour away, Alex's car arrived right in front of his apartment building. The man went down and asked the security guard there to bring his and Sherin's belongings.
“Huft.. At last.. I can breathe air again freely.” Alex muttered, throwing his body on the bed that he used to make love to Sherin and other women.
Not long after the phone in the pocket of the black pants Alex was wearing rang. Alex immediately got up from lying on his back reaching into his pants pocket and took out a flat object at a price that was not cheap.
Alex's smile expands when he finds the name of Melisa's contact listed there. Sherin who saw that frowned feeling curious. In his mind Sherin asks who called Alex until Alex smiles himself like that.
“Halo..”
“OK, I'm going to the office now.”
Sherin sighed. He felt strange hearing Alex's conversation with the caller. Alex looks very happy and happy.
Alex put his phone back in his trouser pocket. After that he got up from the bed and stepped casually towards the door.
“Alex where are you going?” Sherin asks who managed to get Alex to stop his steps.
Alex turned his head and looked cynically at Sherin. Alex doesn't like it the most if anyone wants to know his business. It doesn't matter who it is.
“Should I answer your question Sherin? Who do you think you are until I tell you where I want to go?” Her question surprised Sherin. Sherin didn't think Alex would say that to her.
“I told you before, don't interfere in my business. Where I'm going and who I'm with, it's none of your business. You don't need to know and don't have to ask too many questions. You understand?”
Sherin's heart throbbed in pain hearing Alex's sharp speech. Sherin thinks Alex can act a little better to her after they both live together in Alex's apartment.
“But Alex I..”
“Silence !! I dislike it the most in rebut.” Sela Alex with a snapping tone.
Sherin was surprised by that. The woman closed her eyes not expecting Alex to behave like that to her.
After snapping at Sherin, Alex walked out of his room. The man didn't want his time wasted just because of a Sherin. The woman he thought was the destroyer of his relationship with Lena.
