Love Me, My Husband!
Chapter 13

After his conversation with Gibran in the living room. Adam is now in Naura's room to check on her condition.

"His face was completely pale.. " Murmured Adam noticed the look on Naura's face was so pale

Because of the hoodie Naura wore when she came home earlier, Adam did not see clearly the wound wrapped in bandages on Naura's head.

"It looks like it's going to leave a mark.. " Say Adam then touched Naura's wound

Right at that moment, Naura's body suddenly trembled as if feeling fear. With a faint, Naura whispered in her sleep.

Adam then brought his ears closer, trying to hear what Naura was saying at the moment.

"No. don't go.. Please don't leave me.. Maa.. " Naura said in her sleep with tears now dripping down her face

Adam was a little stunned to hear Naura mention his mother. From what he heard, Naura's mother had been dead since Naura was 9 years old. For the reason of his death, neither his father nor Naura herself mentioned it as if she had purposely hidden it.

Even the face of Naura's mother, never once did Adam see considering he who never cared about anything that concerned Naura especially after the incident during college first.

"I didn't expect there would be a day when I would feel sympathy for you like this"

"It's not just today, because I'm sure in the future you'll regret what you've done all along" Sela Gibran, who just arrived at Naura's room, brought along some kind of medicine

"That's not gonna happen.. " Say Adam was sure

"What do you know? Do you think your family would be so stupid as to choose a daughter-in-law? But I thought, it's only natural that you defend the woman to this extent, however you don't know anything"

"What do you mean?"

"Think for yourself. I just came to bring him the medicine" Gibran said in a mysterious manner

"Since when has he taken drugs like this?" Ask Adam when he saw one of the drugs that are sleep and stress relievers

"Either.. Do you really not know it or just pretend not to know"

"Stop messing around and telling the truth, I'm sick of playing guesses with you"

Gibran looked at Adam seriously. Then he pulled out Naura's blanket, rolled up his sleeve and exposed a bruise on his arm.

"Do you think someone who endures the pain in his body can fall into a deep sleep?" Gibran's question was seriously different from his humorous tone from earlier

Adam frowned, this was the first time he had seen a bruise on Naura's hand "Is it because of me?" Adam muttered but could still be heard by Gibran

"It's because of you. No one would be this rude to Naura other than you"

"Why is it that every time you talk about Naura, you constantly corner me. Maybe you have a taste for him.. "

"I'm empty of what you say. I do care about her, but I have no feelings for her at all. Everything I did was none other than because I felt sorry for a girl who was so blinded by her love. And also this is the only way I can do to get back at him"

Gibran then came out of the room after all the words he had spoken to Adam, now confused by the meaning of Gibran, who seemed to be hiding something from him.

"Is there anything I don't know?" Adam muttered faintly just by thinking about that question

"But maybe, I've really gone too far this time" Adam continued, looking at the bruise on Naura's arm

Not only in the arms, some bruises like that are also found in several places on Naura's body.

...***...

On the other hand, Grandpa Adam and also Father Naura who had gone up to the second floor were now on the terrace of Grandpa Adam's room. The two sat facing the coffee that had just been brought by one of the maids.

"Uncle must be curious not by my intention earlier" said Naura's father had guessed the direction of the conversation

"You're really sensitive. I did call you because of what you said to Adam earlier" said Adam's honest grandfather

Naura's father sighed while fixing his position at a loss where to start.

"This may sound like a joke and it doesn't make sense. But ever since her mother died, Naura has another personality that lives within her" replied Naura's father, telling her what happened to her daughter

Hearing Naura's father's words, Grandpa Adam frowned trying to digest what he had just heard.

"She was completely different from the current personality of Naura. Like black and white both have opposite properties. When Naura chooses to forgive the abusive and vile deeds she receives by others, then her other things with her, because he will do the opposite where he will repay him many times what he received"

"Wait a minute.. So you mean, Naura has two personalities?" Ask Grandpa Adam to interrupt Naura's father's explanation

"That's right Uncle. Naura has two personalities. I used to call her Nara" replied Naura's father

"When did this happen?"

"To be honest I don't know exactly what happened, but after her mother died Naura was always acting weird. I haven't even been able to recognize my daughter since then"

"How long did it last? I've known him for years, but I've never seen the other side of him"

"One month more. During that time, I really couldn't recognize him anymore. That's why I've always called it a nightmare in my life"

"What about now? Do you think he'll come back?"

"I was just expecting it. From what I noticed, he appeared when Naura felt the pain of losing her mother. And this time, I was afraid that he would actually take over my daughter's body just like before" Naura's father said

"Is there any way to prevent it?"

"none. I've taken Naura to some doctors but it's completely useless. Because based on what Naura said, she could snatch Naura's body as she pleased. But even so, Naura could still reclaim her body"

"Wouldn't it be fine as long as Naura can take over her body back?"

"But what if it happens at Naura's request, Uncle? I'm pretty sure that what happened when her mother died was also due to Naura's request to feel desperate for the loss of her mother"

"I'm just afraid that Naura herself will let go because of her pain and disappointment"

Grandpa Adam was silent. He really did not know what to say to Naura's father at this moment. Guilt over the death of Mother Naura still shakes her and now comes a new problem where Naura who has two personalities.
