I'm Young Wife
S2_67'S CHAT. I'm Not As Good as You
Serena's appearance was already much different from when she came. After being examined by a doctor, Nara asks Mak Jum and Mak Marni to wipe Serena's body and replace her clothes. So, at this moment her shabby appearance had changed into a beautiful old woman.
Mak Marni and Mak Jum previously also had no problems with Serena. Serena is a kind and gentle woman. At first they also did not expect if Serena would have the heart to do all that to her husband and son.
“Mrs Serena is done we change her clothes.” Said Mak Marni who just came out of the guest room where Serena was laid.
“Let's see darling.” Nara stroked Alex's arm. But the man was grumbling with a face that still looked annoyed. His beloved wife even defended the woman he hated the most. “Say come.” Nara shook Alex's arm.
“No.” Reject Alex firmly. “I gave him permission to stay. Don't force me to do anything else for her.” Alex stands up and leaves Nara.
Nara looked at Alex's back which was getting away from her. Then they disappeared behind their bedroom door. Nara breathed her breath.
“I know you hurt Lex. But I hope you can forgive your own mama.” Nara murmured before entering Serena's room.
Nara looked at Serena for a long time. Now the old face still looks beautiful even though there are wrinkles in some places on his face. Lips pale. Nara smiled as she looked at the shape of her thick, beautifully curved eyebrows. Now he knows where Alex got the eyebrows that made him jealous.
In the dress of Nara's house that turned out to fit in Serena's body. It's just that the body looks so thin.
Serena's eyes blinked a few times before opening perfectly. Nara immediately approached him.
“You..”.
“My name is Nara. My wife Alex.” Nara sat down next to Serena. Holding the back of Serena's hand.
“You are beautiful and kind. Very compatible with Alex.” Serena smiled sincerely. He was very happy to know that his son now had a wife. And his wife was not only beautiful, but also kind.
“Thank you ma. Mm... I'm sorry about Alex. Usually he is not like that.” Nara feels guilty for Alex's insolent attitude.
“Not Alex is wrong. I'm the one who's wrong. I knew I shouldn't have come here. But I have no other choice.” Serena's face is sad. For two years he was hanging on the road without a clear purpose. Moreover, he is continuously pursued by debt collectors. He and Hans also have no children from their marriage. All the burden is borne by itself.
Only after the debt was paid off with his hard work did he feel free. But his age could not cover his abilities. He's getting older, diseases come and attack him. And that's why he finally dared to come to Alex. I hope that his son forgives him.
“Mama say what? Alex is my mother's son. Already should mama come looking for her when mama is in trouble.”
“I'm a bad mama. I'm the worst mama in the world.”
“Mama is already aware of the error. I also apologized. Alex is a good guy. I'm sure sooner or later he'll forgive mama.”
“Excuse me madam, I brought you porridge.” Mak Marni came in after knocking on the door that was not actually closed.
“How are you Marni?” Serena looked at the maid.
“I'm fine madam. I bring porridge without chives to madam.” Mak Marni is approaching. Serena never liked onions. Just like Alex.
“Thank you Marni. You still remember I tisk liked Leek onion. I'm calm now. With you here with Jumini, I'm sure Alex is growing well.”
“They are the same as Mr. Alex in that regard. Mr. Alex grew up to be a strong man. Excuse me madam, I still have a lot of work in the kitchen.” Mak Marni left after saying goodbye.
Nara finally feeds Serena a meal. At first Serena refused to be fed by Nara because she felt bad. But Nara insisted on doing it. The old woman still did not have enough energy.
“Mama rest first here. Mama's body is still weak.” Nara helps Serena lay herself down. Then allow the blanket. Only then did Nara come out from within Serena's room.
All humans must have made mistakes. No one is completely wrong or completely right. People can make mistakes on one occasion and will regret it at another. It's natural.
Silenced Alex even though only briefly made Nara not calm. He should immediately repair the relationship between them. They just got married. Of course there will be many different things.
When Nara returned to the room. He saw Alex standing in the window.
“Darling are you angry?” Nara approached and hugged Alex from behind. Alex was silent. Her heart still could not accept Serena's presence after such a long time the woman had left.
Twenty years passed Alex with the absence of the figure of his mother. She only lived with her stern papa and raised him hard. A few years in the beginning Alex always hoped Serena would come and pick him up from the magnificent house that was hell for him.
But that hope turned into despair of a wait. And longing has also turned into disappointment as well as resentment. Only with that, Alex can move on with his life without any shadow of the past.
“I just want to help baby. You see for yourself the condition of your mother like that. The doctor said his body strength was weak. He needs a lot of rest. We as children can't let him live an obscure life out there.”
“But he made a mistake. He's been gone for twenty years. Then why should she come back when I'm living happily?”
“Living humans are always shrouded in trouble. No human being lives without problems. People make mistakes that are natural. The important thing is that he wants to change when he realizes his mistake. And my mother realized her mistake. We as fellow human beings should forgive each other.”
“You're too good. But I'm not as good as you.” Alex flipped his body. Holding Nara's shoulders gently.
“It takes time to treat the disease. For me also the heartache that I feel.” continued Alex.
“I know. But I'm sure you can.”
“But you still have to be punished for daring to fight me in front of others earlier.”
Alex whispered in Nara's ear. Biting Nara's earlobe with anxiety.
“But mama is no one else.”
nara panicked.
“For me he's someone else. Now you can't avoid it anymore. Do your punishment well.” Alex clenched Nara's lips gently.
“Lex no mom. How about..”.
“Don't start using that woman to evade. Or I'll kick him out right now. You understand?” with a squeeze Alex squeezes the Peaches Nara fruit. She was still upset by the presence of Serena in the middle of her life who had just been feeling happy. And now the only reason why he allowed the woman to stay would already be the reason Nara used to avoid him.
“Good. You can do whatever you want as long as you don't kick mom out of here.” Whatever the reason Nara said so, Alex would only capture the core he liked. That he's free to do anything to Nara tonight. And Nara will not dodge anymore.
