Marrying the Enemy
The story of Eva

"It was snowy at the time. I walked home alone after a long day at work. Although still in High School I had to work to finance the needs of my life and my sister. In the middle of the road, I saw a car stop. There was smoke in front of him.

I was so panicked because I was the only one on the spot. I dared to approach the car. I panicked when I saw an unconscious man inside. Turns out the car was an accident and I don't know since when.

I immediately pulled the man out of the car to save his life. The fire started alive and burned the car just as I managed to get the man out of the car." Eva looked at Shazia seriously. "That man is Devid, Miss."

Shazia remained silent as a loyal listener there. He does not want to judge or comment before Eva's story is finished.

"Because I don't know where to take Devid. So, I decided to take her home. I even had to carry it with the wood I had deliberately pulled. The snow made it easier for me to carry her heavy body.

After 3 days of unconsciousness, Devid finally woke up. He was surprised to see me in front of him. However, at that time I did not focus on him because of the bad news I had to accept. My 11-year-old sister had to die from drowning. His body was found frozen in the lake.

I was so depressed I couldn't speak. I was paralyzed and not hurt. Devid was getting closer to me. He's a good guy. He gave me strength and passion so I could talk again and walk again. The love between us just grew. Until we finally decided to date.

Devid promised to come back to marry me after I finished high school. In accordance with his promise. After a few months of no news, Devid returns with a wedding ring and a very beautiful wedding dress. We got married that day too. The happiest day of my life was the one where Devid made a sacred promise in front of everyone. Honey, the happiness I imagined was never eternal.

After marriage, Devid gets a call. His face looked panicked like something had happened. I could even see that he wanted to be angry at that moment. He said goodbye and promised to come back. I think everything will be the same as before. Butno. Until now Devid never came back to look for me again, Miss. I think he's so rich and successful that he no longer needs a country woman like me."

Eva wiped away her tears that had been flowing profusely since earlier. Her heart felt tight when it came to telling her sweet moment with Devid.

"I hate him, Miss. I hate her," said Eva again.

Shazia who felt touched immediately pulled Eva into his arms. He also could not bear to see Eva miserable because the mind was so tormenting him.

"I'm sorry, Eva. Ii'm sorry. If you don't want Devid in this house. I'll call David and ask him to come back. I don't want your heart to get hurt again, "persuade Shazia to calm Eva down.

"No, Miss. Don't do that. I think taking care of Devid during his coma will ease the pain in my heart. Maybe I can give him a punishment later," Eva said with her head lowered.

Shazia raised Eva's chin so that she could see her face clearly. "You still love her, Eva?"

Eva shook her head slowly. "I don't know, Miss."

"Thank you, Miss."

After a long and exhausting journey, David and Albert arrive at the house where Logan hid Devid. The first time seeing the state of the house David already felt unbearable. The house was small, dirty and quiet. David believes that his twin brother must have been tortured during his stay in the house.

"Boss, let's go in. We have to check the situation inside," asked Albert who was walking first to lead the way.

David looked back at the left right before stepping. They just entered the house because the door was not locked at all.

Albert put away the cobwebs that greeted him before stepping inside again.

"You sure this is the place?" david asked doubtfully. The house they visited was like an uninhabited house.

"Yes, Boss." Albert walked to one of the doors in the house. He checked each room to find Devid.

At the second door they managed to find David. The man lay on the bed with his eyes closed. It's not just his clothes that are dirty. But Devid's bed is dusty and looks very dirty. There were tables and chairs that were upside down on the floor. Even when he first entered the room, David coughed as dust filled his nose.

"Logan really is a vile man. How come he put Devid in a filthy house like this. Did he forget that Devid paid for it all this time and took care of all the necessities of his life?" david was upset.

Albert was silent. He approaches Devid to check and confirm that Devid is alive. Because at first glance, Devid looks like an undead.

"Boss, we need to get him to the hospital immediately for further examination. His pulse is very weak" Albert said seriously.

David agreed. Together they lifted Devid's body because there was no wheelchair there. However, just as they had just arrived in front of the room, suddenly the tip of the firearm landed on Albert and David's temple. They looked and looked to the side. Logan and his army had already surrounded them there with sneaky gazes and smiles.

"Welcome Mr. David. Nice to see you again" said Logan in a soft voice.
