My husband is mentally ill
*Episode 26

"Sorry, Ma. I have always been short of material all this time. I also lack love. But I'm not like the others. For me, that material is not the main thing I pursue in life. Because material things cannot promise happiness. Just like my mom today."

Suddenly, Mama Jona immediately rounded her eyes because of Jesi's speech just now. How not? The words of Jesi just now were of course directly hit mama Jona mentally subtly.

"What did you say? You said what I was, huh?" Mama Jona spoke in a high tone as well as a frightening sharp gaze.

Jesika is undaunted. He had experienced it many times before in the old house. The look of the foster mother was always frightening. Who always seems to want to eat Jesi raw. Now, he's back in the new house. So, there was no serious problem with that gaze for Jesi.

"Sorry, Ma. I didn't mean to offend Mom. It's just .. I want to give you a parable. A parable that opens the eyes. If life is not just about matter. There are many other things that can make life happy apart from the material course."

"Curtain! Fuck that shit you said just now, Jesika. Don't teach me about life. I am older than you. There's been a lot of salt acid in life that I've been feeling."

"You're nobody. Remember that Jesi! Don't ever act like a smart person who can talk to me. Understand!"

Jesika smiled a little. The contract letter he had read, he had even signed it now. In the contract letter, it is written that he is free in this house while Jona has not fully recovered. But, after a full recovery, then he should leave this house.

Being free means that he is recognized as a legitimate member of the family. Without any more distractions now. Either in any respect, she would be considered as the host or most accurately, as the legitimate wife of Jonathan Wijaya.

"Ma, I accepted my mother's offer. So, I can already be recognized as a daughter-in-law by mama. Therefore, I was speaking as a son-in-law." Jesi spoke steadily with complete calmness.

Meanwhile, Mama Jona who heard the words that Jesi had just spoken immediately fell silent. He forgot what he wrote in the contract. In order to ask Jesi to leave this house after Jona was healed, she made up everything beautiful so that Jesi would agree to it.

"A--what did you say? You ... Do you agree with what I'm asking?" Mama Jona spoke with a tone of surprise. Now, his heart was being filled with true feelings of joy and annoyance.

He was happy because Jesi agreed. But, it is also upset that it has made a less mature decision. A decision that could benefit the other party without any resistance from him in the slightest.

But, he can't do anything anymore. The deal's been made. Can't be changed anymore. He had to lose a little in order to make a big profit later on.

"Yes that is it. If you have signed the letter, then we are done talking. You can go. But remember one thing, Jesika! I don't want anyone to know about this deal. You will know for yourself what the consequences will be if anyone knows. You understand not what I mean?"

"It's good that way. I'll try to believe in you. May you deserve my trust," said Mama Jona as she turned her back to Jesi.

"I promise. Mama won't be disappointed for believing in me."

"Yes already. You can leave now" said Mama Jona with her hands waved hinting to ask Jesi to leave the room immediately.

"good. Excuse me, Ma."

"Hm."

As quickly as he could, Jesi stepped out of the room. After arriving outside the room, the tears that he was holding, now fell swiftly across both of his cheeks.

To be honest, Jesi only pretended to be strong. Because in reality, he is very fragile. It's very fragile.

Mama Jona's request is a big thing for Jesi. He was asked to leave after Jona was fully healed. How could he do that later? Leaving behind someone who has already made his days feel colorful.

Jesi wiped away the tears quickly.

"Remember Jesi, remember! You with him are not suitable. He's a prince, while you're just a slave. Where can we unite, Jesika."

Jesi said to herself. Seeking to gather awareness to strengthen themselves. Even in reality, it does not change the sadness that is in the heart at all.

Then ... Jesi tries to think bad things about Jonathan.

'Jesi, he's a mentally ill man. Even if he fully recovered later, the mentally ill lebel would never disappear from him. You don't fit in with him, Jesika. You're sane, aren't you? There are a lot of normal guys you can get out there. Come, Jesika! Aware of that well.'

Again, Jesi kept trying to build her heart to stay strong. He wanted to help Jona quietly in this house. That way, poor Jona due to loneliness can definitely be helped easily. Even though he had to sacrifice his own heart to do just that.
