Let's Get Divorced
Trying to Make Peace

Rachel opened her eyes. He saw himself lying on the bed covered in a thick and warm blanket. His eyes stopped on a man who often made his heart ache and break.

"You're sober?" Jasper asked his wife. Jasper was sitting on the chair next to the bed. Rachel saw a great worry on Jasper's face.

"Is it still dizzy?" Ask Jasper again.

Rachel did not answer her husband's question. He threw his face away and looked in any direction. The girl struggled to hold herself.

"Your heat is down!" Jasper touched his wife's forehead.

"Don't be good to me!" Rachel threw Jasper's hand violently.

"I'm not doing well with you. I'm really worried about you" Jasper raised his voice.

"Worrying? You even know my stomach hasn't been filled with food or drink. You expect me to disappear and not come back. Then, now you're acting like you're worried about me" Rachel smiled cynically.

"I'm sorry!" That's the only word Jasper can say.

"That's it. I don't need an apology from you!" Rachel was about to get out of her sleep, but her body staggered back and slammed into the bed.

"Don't force yourself!" Jasper grabs Rachel's hand to help the girl sit down.

"Don't be like this!" Rachel yells. Then he cried bitterly. His crying really made anyone's heart torn apart.

Jasper was still in his place. Her chest was as tight as seeing Rachel cry like that.

"Why should I? Why should I be the one experiencing all this?" Rachel closed both her eyes.

"I'm sorry! I even forgot you haven't eaten or drunk anything" Jasper took Rachel's hand. The girl was desperately trying to break away from Jasper's grip.

"Why should my life be this complicated? I was sold by both of my parents, lived a hard life to the point of having to work in a club, and now I have a husband who was not expecting me at all!" Rachel's crying is growing. He beat Jasper in the chest with his hand.

Jasper was silent. He let the girl beat him to the satisfaction. After all Jasper did feel his attitude was outrageous today. She let Rachel starve, while the girl cooked all the food on the table.

"I want us to just part ways," Rachel cried a mouthful.

"I'm sorry! For now we cannot be separated. There are feelings for both of my parents that we have to take care of" Jasper replied.

"Then, what about me? I can't keep living with you like this" Rachel's voice raspy.

"I can't accept you as my wife!" Jasper took Rachel's hand and blocked her.

"But I promise to treat you well after this. I promise I won't treat you badly again. We can make friends and live side by side in peace" he continued.

Rachel did not answer. She kept crying to make her heart feel better.

"Have you been satisfied crying?" Jasper asked as he saw Rachel stop crying and dry her tears.

"I'll bring you food!" Jasper leaves Rachel and goes down to pick up food in the kitchen.

Before long, the young man returned with a tray filled with food and drinks. Rachel saw Salmon Fillet Pasta and also Meatlof with potatoes and broccoli. When Rachel fainted, Jasper did tell the housekeepers at her parents' house to cook and send her.

"Eat!" Jasper scoops Meatlof's food and brings it closer to Rachel's paj-looking lips

Rachel's not budging. He's still tight-lipped.

"Eat! Your stomach hasn't eaten anything yet" Jasper didn't give up.

"I'm not hungry!" Rachel answered with a brush.

"Try it! Just little!" Persuade Jasper not to give up.

"I can eat by myself" Rachel took the plate and spoon in her husband's hand.

Rachel started putting the food in her mouth. Tastes bitter. Is he really sick? Jasper, meanwhile, makes sure that all the food and drink goes into Rachel's mouth until the toilet.

"It's over. You can get out!" Dismissed Rachel without looking at her husband.

"I'm just here. I'm afraid something bad will happen to you if I leave you."

"Why don't you just let me die?" Rachel was crying again.

"I'm sorry!" Jasper apologized.

"I really want us to be apart. But this is not the way. I want our parting to be done in a good way" Jasper bowed his face. I don't know why Rachel's heart was so torn to hear Jasper's words. Her husband really did not have any feelings. After they split up, what would Rachel do? Should he return to work at the club? Or return to their home country? Those thoughts really made Rachel's head even more dizzy.

"I want to sleep," Rachel lay down and covered her body to the head.

Jasper was lying on the couch. He looked at the ceiling of the room. Longer and longer, finally his eyes were closed accompanied by the sound of wind in the autumn.

On monday...

Rachel's condition has improved greatly. Today he decided to go to college to attend college.

"You sure you're going to college?" Ask Jasper who is now sitting next to Rachel at the dining table. For the food they ate, it was Jasper who ordered the food because Rachel had not made it possible to cook.

Rachel remained silent. He enjoyed his breakfast the morning. For two days, the Bulgarian girl silenced her husband. It made Jasper feel a little lonely. Usually the girl would nag if Jasper kept a wet towel on the sofa. Rachel would nag if the living room TV was still on at night. Ah, why does Jasper still feel guilty for the girl next to him?

Rachel took her bag that was stored in the chair. He stood up from his seat and left Jasper still eating his breakfast. Rachel walked to find a taxi or other public transportation.

"Let's go in!" Ask someone when Rachel's still running around looking for a taxi or bus.

Rachel turned her head, she saw Jasper pull his car over the side of the highway. Rachel pretended not to hear her husband and continued on foot.

"I said get in!" Jasper blocks Rachel's hand from walking away from him.

"I don't want to!" Rachel wagged her hand that Jasper was blocking.

"I said get in!" Jasper dragged the girl into his car.

"I said I didn't want to!" Rachel persisted.

"Don't make me angry!!" Jasper dragged Rachel to his car.

"He won't get in your car! Why are you forcing her?" Ask someone who is behind them.

"Hans?" Rachel cried when she saw the young man who had helped her.

"Why are you forcing a girl like this? This is not good!" Hans releases Rachel's hand from Jasper's check.

"Don't interfere! It's none of your business!" Jasper looked at Hans dislike.

"Obviously it's my business. Rachel's my classmate. Why are you pulling Rachel's hand like this? You could've hurt her, "Hans seemed confused. In the classroom, the two of them are not familiar. In fact, Hans had never seen Rachel and Jasper chat.

"I said it's none of your business!" Jasper's voice was rising.

"Rachel, why are you with Jasper?" Hans softened his voice as he asked Rachel.

"He's my employer. I work for him. I work at her house" Rachel hurriedly replied. Hans looked shocked at the blonde girl's reply.

"Rachel works at Jasper's? Fernando De Magellan managed to circumnavigate the world. It turns out that the earth is so narrow that, without anyone expecting it, Rachel works at Jasper's house. I never even saw them greeting each other. It's unbelievable," Hans' inner.

"I just worked for Jasper. At first I didn't know Jasper. She was told by her parents to take me to college, because my body was not well," Rachel seemed to read Hans' confused look.

"Yes. Then from that. I'll take him to college because he's sick" Jasper said.

"How can you?" Hans still can't believe it.

"That's it. We have to get to campus!" Jasper opens the car door for Rachel.

"Jasper, I'll go with Hans. I don't want Aurora to misunderstand me. I don't want any rumors on campus either" Rachel hurriedly got into Hans' car.

"She'd rather get in my car!" Hans said proudly. He then catches up with Rachel in the car, leaving Jasper alone on a still quiet street.
