Forced to Marry a Cruel Master
I want to live with you.

Episode 103: I want to live with you.

***

It has been three days since Rani was in the hospital, Rani has not been able to move freely because her fractured spine takes longer to heal.

"Mother, where's my husband?" for three days he searched for Gama, Gama seemed lost to the earth and could not see anywhere.

"He always comes when you're asleep, don't worry about him yet, you have to focus on your recovery and your baby" Sheryl told her.

Upon hearing that, Rani squinted slightly, she wanted to know why her husband was avoiding her and only came while she was asleep.

Tonight she'll find her own, she'll stay up all night and wait for her husband.

***

After that night came, Rani pretended if she was sleeping and sure enough Gama came with a very slow step, he sat by his wife's side for a while and rubbed his hair softly.

After that he kissed his forehead, without words he went up to the bed, opened the blanket Rani and slept in the bed patient hugged Rani softly.

Every night he would do this, because feeling guilty he was punishing himself.

Yes, Gama punished himself for hurting his own wife, he punished himself by refraining from talking and hugging his wife all day.

She also wants to stay away from Rani for a while until she recovers, after which Gama can only beat himself up.

"Darling, I miss you all the time, should I continue punishing myself? I can't seem to stand it if the punishment is to stay away from you, what should I do?" whispered Gama with his spoiled attitude that always rests on his wife's shoulders.

Rani who heard that immediately knew what really happened to this husband.

Rani sighed deeply, what she thought was wrong, it turned out that this man might have gotten used to punishing himself in various ways if he felt he had done something wrong.

I don't know what life he's been through but, as a young pregnant wife, Gama's attitude remains unjustified.

When Rani decided to open her eyes, the first thing she saw was a bandage on her husband's palm and multiple bruises on his arm.

Rani closed her eyes for a moment, she was sure Gama had injured himself again when he was sick.

Rani clutched Gama's hands firmly, giving Gama aghast and sitting down, then she looked at his wife's silent side and sobbed in tears.

"Sa ... Baby, are you still awake? did you have a bad dream? why are you crying all of a sudden?" exclaim Gama tried to touch his wife's shoulder.

"You're a man not a machine, one day you're gonna get badly hurt, that's what I'm supposed to do!"

"You're selfish, thinking about yourself, you make me depend on you and need you, but you never take care of yourself,"

Rani talks like she's rapping, she's crying and now she's facing her husband.

Rani could see her husband's pale face, her heart as if it was being rained down again.

How much did her husband suffer until he grew up like this?

Why is his face so miserable? the more Rani gets to know her husband, the more her heart aches with him.

Rani who is still lying down, and Gama who is sitting, their eyes look at each other and unite, Rani's hands try to reach her husband's face, she rubs his cheeks.

"I'll be waiting for you, I'll stay by your side until you can tell me exactly what happened to you,"

"Remember your words? if you suffer then I too will suffer, if you are in pain then I am in more pain, we are husband and wife, where two people become one,"

"When you're down, you just have to hug me, cry on my shoulder, don't hurt and punish yourself, I don't want you to stay locked up in your past,"

"Look at me and let's live together unharmed in the future, don't you want to live with me?"

Rani spoke sobbing, she couldn't do anything else, other than touching her husband's heart, she didn't know how to heal his trauma and psychological illness.

But as a wife who knew her husband well, knowing that his heart was so fragile, she would do everything, whatever she would do to heal him.

When he heard that, just like when Rani defended him in the crowd, Gama could not hide his feelings of sadness and tears that continued to flow.

He nodded like a child, he touched his wife's hand that touched his face, he closed his eyes and answered Rani.

"I also want to live with you, I want to live happily and quietly with you, please don't leave me like the others," Gama hugged his wife, leaned on her shoulder and spilled all her pain.

Rani who initially did not understand why the universe brought the two of them finally understood, maybe true love really exists.

And he will do all he can to give happiness to a man who for his entire life lived only in grudge and hatred, trauma and pain.

Rani is like a light that finally comes to Gama's dark heart.
