Love Bersemi In Turkey
That CREEPY Man Came to Meet Me

I immediately closed the door without saying anything, unfortunately I lost quickly. Before I could close it tightly and lock it, the man pushed the door from the outside, I couldn't help it. My body was pushed along with the opening of the door. With a flash the man entered and locked the door. Fear ran through my body and I could feel my body trembling with fear.

"What are you going to do? ... Wh-whom ka-" I can't continue my words because he smothered my mouth with his palm.

I have trouble breathing. I tried to catch my breath as much as I could, but his hands were clutching my mouth and nose. I tried to let go of his hand, I tried to kick him but he felt nothing at all. I started crying in fear. I was so scared to think about what would happen? What's he gonna do to me?

"Listen to me, beautiful ... Tell your fucking husband that he can't do anything! He won't be able to fight me! Tell him he has to give me all that money, marijuana and drugs. If he doesn't give it. Then, I'll take whatever he's got. Including yourself! Hahaha .. "he whispered while grinning at me fixedly, accompanied by laughter. I widened my eyes, as if I could not believe what he had just said. What's the matter between Vian and that creepy guy? I'm still trembling in fear. I tried to get his hand out of my mouth, but he was too strong.

"understand?!" the snapping surprised me, making my heart feel almost dislodged. I nodded according to his words. He swiftly removed his burly hand from my mouth and pushed me hard until I fell on the floor. My hand touched the wall next to me and tried to shift my legs away from it.

"Good! I'll come back" he said as he walked away and closed the door. I'm in shock. I immediately got up and ran to Vian's room to hide.

My body is still trembling in fear. I'm afraid he'll come back. I immediately ran to lock the door and close all the window blinds. I don't dare look out, I'm so scared to see him out there again. I went back to Vian's room and sat down by the side of the bed, letting tears run down my face.

I opened my eyes and found myself lying on Vian's bed. I thought, why am I sleeping here? In my heart I grumbled to blame myself for not sleeping in my own room. I opened the door to Vian's room and then turned my head outside, looking for Vian. Who knows if he's home. I know he's terrible sometimes, too, but I feel like seeing him here now.

"Vian?" I said a little loud but there was no answer.

I ventured to walk outside, but suddenly my head hurt again. I bent my knees on the floor. I sat there long enough for my headache to go away.

A few moments later, I felt better. I went to the bathroom. Unknowingly I took ablution. After that I put on a mukena and started the Dhuha prayer. After I finished the prayer, I felt very peaceful. I don't know why, I don't know. At the very least, I can forget about my troubles for a moment.

"Repair your relationship with God. Then God will repair your relationship with your fellow men." I remember the writing in the book. I smile. I think that's true. Sometimes I even forget prayer times, I realize I am indeed a negligent creature. From now on I am determined to pray on time.

I finally feel better. I no longer feel as scared as before. There's a God who will always protect me, I'm sure of that. This is all a test, I convinced myself.

After I finished folding, I went to the bus station to take the bus to the supermarket. Vian didn't come home, so I looked for my own busy life so I could forget all the events in my past that often haunted me.

A little while later, the bus I was waiting for had arrived, I immediately got into it. I walked in the bus to the back to find an empty seat.

I saw a young man my age, and I couldn't turn my eyes away from him. I felt very close to the young man. I don't know why. And who is he? My heart moved to call him.

Just now I wanted to see him to ask him if he knew me, he had already walked out of this bus. I wanted to chase him, but this bus was already on. I'm so sorry I didn't see him from the beginning. I shook my head and sat back down. I tried not to think about it anymore, but his face seemed to stick in my memory. I felt so close to him, as if there was an inner bond. But, I don't know who he is.

After buying everything in the supermarket, I decided to return home. Arriving at home, when I was just about to turn the doorknob, I heard the sound of someone behind the door. I put my ear to hear it more clearly.

"Tell them, they can't do anything" the voice I heard behind the door. I'm pretty sure it was Vian's voice. I heard him talking loudly. I think he's on the phone.

"I'll kill him and all his men. Trust me! It's not the first time I've killed people ... They have to do their job well. Don't get caught again ... The police have been spying on me ... I'm not just gonna give up. Do as I say!" He sounded screaming.

I was really surprised to hear his words. I immediately turned the doorknob and opened it. I saw Vian standing looking at me in surprise.

"We need to talk" he said. I nodded uninterestedly, trying to look strong in front of him.

He pulled the chair in front of him, allowing me to sit down. I waited for him to start the conversation. I remember what happened this morning when he hit my back against the wall. I still feel pain, and I can't forgive him. I closed my eyes for a moment. 'God alone can forgive his sinful servant. Why can't I forgive others? I cannot hold a grudge. Can't!' I said to myself in my heart. But it still feels so hard to forgive him. I can't forgive him!

"You see for yourself, don't you, Sadiya? We are not compatible with each other. But for now, I want you to be careful. In just a few days ... Don't ask me why!" he said with a serious mimic.

I was waiting for him to apologize for what happened this morning. But it's not possible. I am a fool!

"Why do you care about me?" I asked him the same question he asked when I helped treat the wounds on his body.

"Because I don't want to deal with the police anymore!" said firmly.

"Who were you fighting with at the time? Tell me, then I'll be careful" I said. He took a deep breath, I'm sure he won't dodge my question.

"It was just a fight with street thugs. Nothing is important!" said it. I know he must be lying. I decided not to tell you what happened this morning when that creepy guy came to see me.

"All right" I replied. He nodded while swinging his steps into his room.

"He can't even apologize" I grumbled as I watched him walk away.

"I tried to apologize to you this morning. But you won't listen to him. Maybe it was worth the punishment for you" he said, apparently hearing me.

I widened my eyes to her. I never made a mistake. Why should I get punished? I don't deserve to be punished! I walked closer to him until the distance between me and him was so close.

"What do you know about me? This fake marriage is the greatest punishment for me. You are a punishment to me!" I said, letting anger take hold of me.

He was silent for a moment. I can't read the expression on his face.

"If I hadn't married you, maybe my life would have been happier" she said.

"If you marry someone. Who do you think will stand up to your attitude? Huh!" my spoken. I stopped my words. I realized this topic had gone too far because of my words earlier.

"Actually, I've fallen in love ... But not with you!" He said as if I didn't know that.

"Yes, I know that. Then, what has Liza done so you didn't marry her? Is he cheating? Did he leave you because he found something better than you?" I sneered at her. I saw Vian clenching his hand. He almost hit me but he held him. I feel guilty. I was a nobody to him, so I shouldn't have said anything about him, let alone about that girl named Liza.

"Just do. Do what you want, I don't care" I said. I know what I said just now has ignited his emotions.

A moment later, he moved his foot towards me. It forced me to step back until I hit the wall.

"If you dare to say his name once more, I do not hesitate to shut your mouth in my own way. You don't know anything, so shut up before I act. You are really pathetic! Everyone left you. No one needs you. Therefore there is no need to interfere in the affairs of others, and keep your mouth shut!" he said while looking disgusted at my face. After that, he went to his room.

My heart hurts to hear his words. But he's right! I have to get out of here, I told myself. I took my bag. Inside was a Salma number that I wrote on paper. I immediately called her number with the intercom.
