Love Blocked Promise
James is back in London

Sheela again cried hysterically to see the chest containing the stiff body of her sister, when it will be inserted into the ground to be buried.

Now she feels like she lives a lonely life in this world.Even though she is married, she is still the same as someone who does not have a husband. Even in this state of grief, her husband James did not accompany her at all, nor did he even answer the call. Indeed, both of his parents-in-law attended the funeral but it still felt different.

Meanwhile, James, who had just arrived at his residence in London, could not find Sheela anywhere. He tried to dial his cell phone number, but it remained the same. James tried to contact Hellena, but was not answered at all.

"Where did he go? is he in the hospital now?" James sat in his head while hissing because he still felt pain in the bullet marks that landed on his stomach.

"Hmm, why should I look for him? later he can misunderstand and can expect more if I look for him.Let it be him! He'll be home by himself." James is back. He landed his body on the sofa, then leaned in with his legs raised to the table.

"Fred, Sheela doesn't seem to be home, can you please take a drink for me?!"

"Alright, Master!" Fredrick went into the kitchen to carry out James' orders.

When Fredrick came to bring James a drink, Sheela was seen coming in with a face that still looked grim. He was a little bit shocked and was saddened to see James who had returned home.

"You, are you home? you're from the hospital, aren't you?" James tried to make small talk to Sheela. But Sheela was silent, not answering at all. Sheela kept walking, passing James to her room.

"Hey, why didn't you answer?"

Sheela only turned her head for a moment, after which she stepped up again.

"You stop there! are you deaf now? why don't you answer me at all, huh?!" James began to get emotional. While Fred was already feeling bad, seeing the drama that will happen to Master and his wife.

James saw that Sheela's shoulder had gone down and up a sign that she was now being questioned. James noticed the appearance of Sheela who was wearing a black shirt like a man in mourning.Suddenly James' feeling, felt bad.

"Why do you wear it like that? where are you really from?" james' voice had softened again, but was tucked into a sense of anxiety at his question.

"If I told you, you wouldn't care! because I never thought at all.So, there's no point also I tell you, where am I from!" sheela said without looking at James at all.

"What do you mean? as long as you are my wife, you are still my responsibility.So, I deserve to know where you are from!" james' emotions were stirred again.

Sheela was seen clenching her hands with a hunting breath.She turned and looked at James, with tears in her eyes.

"Then let's end this marriage James! so you don't have to take responsibility for me anymore" Sheela said with a still-hunting breath.

James gasped at what had just been said from Sheela's mouth.

"What did you say Sheela? You should never be rash to say goodbye when your heart is enveloped by emotions.

James gasped with the two enlarged netra, hearing the news that Sheela had just uttered. "J-so Felix is dead?" james said stammered.

"Oh my God, is this a sign that I should really accept Sheela as my wife? to meet, Felix's message first?" james' mind while enduring the pain, approached the sobbing Sheela.

"Sorry! I'm sorry Sheela! Yesterday I was so busy I never saw a cell phone at all.Now I promise, I will try to accept you and be a real husband, even though it will be difficult for me to love you, but at least I'll try for it." James tried to endure the pain in his stomach as he attempted to sit next to Sheela.

Sheela felt a little warm in her heart as soon as she heard every utterance that came out of James' mouth, even though James could not love her yet, sheela hugged James tightly because she was moved to hear her husband's words.

"Let's!" scream James who could not endure the pain anymore.

"You why James? W-why is your stomach bleeding?" Sheela immediately panicked to see James's clothes on the abdomen had turned red, because it happened that James was wearing a gray shirt, so the red color of blood could still be clearly seen.

"Yesterday, Mr. James was shot in the stomach! So, you've been unconscious all day." said Fredrick, who made James instantly draw his gaze at Fredrick.

"Huh, shot? S-so that's why you didn't answer my call and James's mama's call? Why should you hide it?" Sheela cried again while banging James in the chest.

"It's all because of you! look at her crying again!" james snapped while staring angrily at Fredrick.

"Sorry Sir! I didn't mean it!" Fredrick lowered his head, not daring to stare at James' silver-colored eye beads.

"Why are you so upset Mr Fred? so you hid it until when?" Sheela pursed her lips while throwing her face the other way.

James scratched his head, which was not itchy.He was now confused how to persuade Sheela. Suddenly James screamed in pain. "Well, how does my stomach hurt? Fred help me!" james groaned while still holding his stomach.

"James, is it sick? We need to get to the hospital now!" Sheela panicked again, making a very thin smile appear at the corner of James' lips.

"Oh no need Sheel! I just lie down, in the room and eat the medicine, it'll be good on its own." James calmed Sheela down.

"Oh, if so, I'll help you get to your room! and I'll help clean your wounds later." Sheela grabbed James by the arm and helped him to his feet.

"Mr Fred, you can rest in the guest room now! let me just take James upstairs. You may be very tired by now." Sheela said before she brought her husband upstairs.

"Look at Miss Sheela!" Fredrick stepped into the guest room, to rest his body, because indeed his body really felt tired from yesterday.
