Marrying for Threats
episode 314 (S2)
" Ma what happened to you guys? Why do you live in this house." Kevin said quickly.
Her mother just lowered her head while crying. Jesy came near his mother, and hugged his mother's shoulder from behind.
" Mama tell brother Kevin, no one's covered up anymore." His sister reminded.
Madame Paula took her breath in deep. He regulated his breathing in order to speak normally without any hiccups from crying.
Mrs Paula recalled the incident six years ago.
Flashbacks
Six years ago when Kevin left his home. His father was furious, he did not allow his family to communicate with his eldest son.
His anger had made him hate his own flesh and blood. He cut off communication unilaterally with Kevin. According to his father Kevin is not considered a child anymore by him.
Her father was embarrassed by his friend Jasmin, because they had arranged for his son when he was a child. But the truth is his son had smeared his own face.
Every day his father was angry, all so the ingredients of tantrums by his father. Mr. Hendrik became a temperamental man, not only at home, in the office he was also angry.
Her emotions were endless, until one day she fell down in her study. At that time he was in the office. The employee was not aware of the incident, almost half an hour his papa lying on the floor. And after that one of the employees knocked on his door, because there was no answer at all from inside, his employees ventured to open the door.
The employee immediately asked his friend for help to call an ambulance. His body was taken to hospital. The doctor said that his father had a stroke.
Initially, the body part of his father was only next to the one that could not be moved. For a long time all of his limbs could not be moved at all.
For a year the company always paid his salary in full. But after a year the company made the decision to dismiss Mr. Hendrik respectfully.
Because there was no income his mother took the initiative to sell her house with an agent. And the proceeds from the sale of the house were bought the house they occupy now, and the rest made business capital for his mother to make a bakery.
Kevin felt sorry to hear his mother's story. Her mother has switched roles to be the backbone to support her family.
" Mom's grateful we could hang on to that bakery." Say her mother while hiccupping.
" Why didn't mom call me." Ask Kevin.
Her mother shook her head.
" Your number has been deleted by your father. We're not allowed to communicate with you son." Say mother.
" Boy Jasmin helped us a lot. Because of expensive treatment, he came to check on Papa. And he's the one who always buys her medicine." Reply sister.
" I'm sorry I never looked for your whereabouts." Said Kevin while holding his mother's hand.
" You're not wrong, son. Your obsessed father betrothed you to his best friend's son." Say mother.
" It all happened, and I'm here now. We must rise from this fall." Kevin said giving spirit to his mother and sister.
" How is it?" ask mama.
" We all move to the homeland." Kevin said quickly.
The two women in front of him looked at each other.
" Why should it be there." Her mother was confused.
" Ma, I've got a house there. You don't have to think about everything. I will support you all. And for papa's coronation, we'll continue there. The coronation there is good too." Kevin said quickly.
Her mother did not give any answers. The middle-aged woman left her child for her room.
" Mama why?" ask Kevin heavily.
His sister Jesy shook his head quickly.
" Do you agree with the idea of brother?" ask Brother.
" I want brother. I've been wanting to see our father's homeland." Jesy said enthusiastically.
" You will continue your studies there." Say Kevin again.
It was late, and Kevin was escorted to his room by his sister.
" Sister this is sister's room." Said his sister while pointing at a very small room.
Kevin came in and looked at the room. The picture that was there. He looked at the contents of the closet, his clothes were still neatly arranged in place.
" You are not allowed to communicate with your brother. But why do you still have room for brother." Ask Kevin.
" Because I'm sure one day you'll be back. And now it's proven that brother has returned." Said his sister.
Jesy came out of that room. He will also rest. In the room Kevin lay his body on a small bed. His body was tired but his eyes were reluctant to close. He took his cell phone, the message from Menik in instead of him came back. But the message was not answered, Kevin wanted to contact Menik, but in the homeland time was too late, so he paused his intention.

Midnight time in the country. Ziko and Zira are still busy chatting, they spend time in bed.
" Dear, I went to the hospital to see Fiko." Zira.
Ziko looked over.
" What he's talking to you." Ziko was curious as she stared intently at his wife's face.
" Dear, what's wrong with you? Are you jealous." Zira said quickly.
" I'm obviously jealous, no matter how much she likes you." Ziko said quickly.
" You don't have to be jealous of her anymore, because she's getting married." Zira said quickly.
" Oh so yeah." Said Ziko quietly with a face that was not tense anymore.
" so? You know the plan to get married." Now Zira is curious.
Ziko nodded her head.
" How do you know he's getting married? Did Vita meet you." Now Zira is jealous while turning her back on her husband's body.
" You're jealous." Ziko tries to seduce his wife by hugging her.
" Obviously I'm jealous, he's your ex. And you're not telling me the truth. If you ever see him." Zira said angrily.
" Dear, don't be angry. What matters now is that I've been honest with you." Said Ziko while still hugging his wife.
" Had I not spoken about this you would not have told me about your meeting with him." Zira sewot.
" You want to hear? Why'd he meet me." Ziko said quickly.
Out of curiosity Zira turned her body to face her husband.
" What?" ask Zira.
" He came to my office in a state of confusion."
Ziko told me everything she talked about with Vita. The problem of the application, and the problem of barrenness were also told.
" What did you answer?" ask Zira curiously.
" He came to the office asking for my opinion. And I told him if there was love between the two of them then he should be honest with Fiko. And now it's proven that the man is willing to accept him for who he is." Ziko said quickly.
" Oh so that means Vita's arrival." Said Zira while being angry.
" Dear, I told you that my love is only for you. They are my past. A past that never had any love, and true love was before me." Said Ziko while peeping her lips.
The night was getting late, finally they could close their eyes, resting their bodies that had been all day of activity.
" Like, many comments and votes thank you."
