My Pet Husband
CHAPTER 45 Yes or No

Nathalie could only cry in silence, seeing what Jonathan had done. Not not wanting to stop, nor happy for what his son did. However, due to her already helpless self again.

"Jo," he said, inaudible to Jonathan.

Joshua breathed his last breath. However, Jonathan seemed to not understand the conditions. He kept sticking a knife and pulling it repeatedly.

Nathalie who saw that felt tightness in her chest. Such a deep wound in his nature made him unable to endure any more pain. He sighed one last time and started to close his eyes forever.

Until the fatigue hit and made Jonathan stop stabbing his father. Jonathan threw away the knife. He turned towards his mother. "Father can't hurt Mama anymore" Jonathan said flatly.

He crouched down, starting to lift the body of the mother who had not been able to breathe. Small body, fragile looking hands. However, it can carry the weight of his mother. Yes, even though his mother had the ideal posture.

Jonathan lifted the mother's body into her room. He put his mother in bed. "Mama, want to eat?" tanyakanya.

No response from Nathalie. "Want a drink?" ask Jonathan again.

Still no answer from Nathalie. Jonathan crouched down, waiting for the mother to open her voice.

There was no sound coming out of his mother's mouth. Makes Jonathan tired of waiting. He took a large basket, a basket that his mother used to clean laundry.

Put a cloth in it. Jonathan began to curl up in the basket. He did not dare to sleep next to his mother. A stigma stuck in his head.

The father never allowed Jonathan to sleep with Nathalie. Even from the beginning Jonathan was born. No one can go to bed with Nathalie but Joshua. Jonathan has always slept in his own room since he was a baby.

The next day, there was no sign of her mother moving. Jonathan painstakingly cleansed the mother's body. Bathe her and change her clothes. He began to realize something, that his mother was dead. However, he still considers his mother alive.

Her brain was used to preserve the mother's body. We live our days like nothing happened.

Jonathan prefers to stay indoors with his mother without leaving the house and it lasts for 40 days.

Flashback off

Jonathan sees Daniella holding a box in her hand. He moved his feet closer to his wife. Jonathan's eyes were sad. However, no tears came out of his eyes.

Daniella stands up, she emboldens herself to step closer to Jonathan.

Without Jonathan guessing, Daniella hugs him tightly. She thought Daniella would be hysterical, probably going to run away from her. However, his wife hugged tightly and channeled warmth.

"It's hard for you to live, J," said Daniella.

Jonathan began to cry in silence, He buried his head in the recess of his wife's neck.

Daniella rubs her husband's back. Feeling wet on his shoulders. She was sure her husband was crying in silence.

"You can tell me anything, J."

After calming Jonathan. Finally, Jonathan began to tell her what had happened to her parents. Every detail, he told Daniella. The quarrel of his parents, the violence experienced by his mother. How to live his days living with his mother's body. Not only that, Jonathan tells of his childhood which is considered strange by many people. Including with a personality that changes frequently.

"After the incident, I wasn't in jail. Besides being under age. They say there's something wrong with my soul. Until, I was taken to the hospital. I miss my mom, I ran away from the hospital. After a few days, we met, ", Jonathan said.

Daniella heard without interrupting her husband's story. He believes, what is meant by the hospital is a mental hospital. "Why didn't you come? I'm waiting for you 4 hours." Daniella recalls the agreement when they were teenagers.

"I was taken by my grandfather, during which time I was locked up in the hospital" Jonathan explained. He looked up, looking at the woman. "Go away" said Jonathan.

"J ...."

Daniella cupped Jonathan's hand. "I am your wife, I will not leave you. However, you must take responsibility for your actions. I'll wait for you, J."

Jonathan could only stare at the pretty face of Daniella who was very confident in saying to wait for him.

"I love you, J. I love you," said Daniella, hugging Jonathan.

They embrace each other, Daniella channeling her affection towards Jonathan. Daniella leads Jonathan out of the room. Get out of the room that will only remind Jonathan of his mother. Chatting about their past, chattering about Daniella's childhood. Daniella's never stopping babbling. Distract Jonathan, so that the figure of Nathan never present.

No one wants Nathan to attend or Jojo to attend. Although, Jojo's figure is adorable for Daniella. However, one thing that Daniella caught from the figure of Jojo. He did not understand the feelings of others, he did not care about others. He will support everything Nathan does. Having the same mission without being able to distinguish right from wrong.

They talked, until tired hit and they fell asleep hugging each other.

***

Daniella clasped Jonathan's hand. This morning, they'll release Cysara.

"Are you ready?" ask Daniella.

"Yes." Yeah."

Daniella goes first, with her hands still interlocked. He opened the barn door.

They're going into the basement. Daniella crouches down, gazing with concern and also guilt over what happened to Cysara.

"We're gonna let you go. Please forgive my husband's mistakes." Daniella claps her hands together. His eyes showed sincerity.

Jonathan looked down at Daniella apologizing for him.

Cysara smiled faintly, she knew Daniella knew nothing. What's more when they saw Daniella and Jonathan's interaction yesterday when they met in the basement. Convincing himself that Jonathan acted of his own accord and without the incitement of others.

"Thank you" said Cysara weakly.

Cysara is married to Di Daniella, who is assisted by Jonathan. Just opening the barn door, there were already a few people approaching them.

The men in police uniforms approached. Daniella started to pale, she knew this time was coming. Not like this should be. Even if Jonathan was in prison, he should have turned himself in.

"You're under arrest for the alleged murder of Mr. Evan" a police officer said.

"I didn't kill him" said Jonathan. He looked at Daniella. "I didn't kill" he repeated.

The other police officers petrified Cysara. Daniella approaches Jonathan. "I'll always be with you" Daniella said.

"But I didn't do it, you believe me, right?" ask Jonathan.

"J, all you have to know is that I love you so much."

"Tell me that you believe me?"

Daniella just looked at Jonathan, then lowered her head. He didn't answer Jonathan, he didn't know what to do.

There was no 'Yes' or 'No' answer from Daniella's mouth and it disappointed Jonathan. He looked at the woman who said he loved her very much. A look of disbelief.
