Not a Curse
6. Discussions in the first morning

Since in the car, Erland continued to be silent, not even rarely ignoring Sarah who invited him to talk. Until now in their bridal room was the same. Erland is still silent sometimes caught Sarah is daydreaming.

"Mas, you still think about Vino's sister huh?? It's our bridal night. Can't you just forget it??"

Erland felt guilty for Sarah. Tonight should be the best night for both of them. But Erland's mind was on Vio who had not been conscious in the hospital.

"Sorry baby"

Erland rubbed the soft cheeks of Sarah, the thirty-year-old woman looked beautiful in the thin black pajamas she wore today.

"No Papa Mas" Sarah began to gently rub Erland's chest covered in her nightgown.

Sarah began to approach, blatantly inviting Erland to do their first night. Erland began to lulled, she took for granted touches from Sarah. Until their lips start to blend.

Sarah's active hand was becoming more and more silent. One by one Erland's pajama buttons have been released by Sarah, until when Sarah wants to escape from Erland's body, Erland suddenly distanced her face from Sarah.

"Why Mas??"

"Sarah, I'm sorry. We can do this next time. My body feels crumpled" Sarah can not hide her disappointment. But what if one of them doesn't want that hot night.

"Well, now we're sleeping" Sarah laid her body beside Erland.

Erland also lay down with his wife. Without another word Erland immediately closed his eyes. He didn't know why he couldn't control his own body and mind.

When Sarah began to kiss him earlier, Erland was actually pictured in Viola's face. But at that time Erland could still control her body, but when Sarah wanted to take off her clothes, Erland was completely unable to because when Erland closed her eyes it was Viola's face in front of her.

"What happened to me exactly??" Inner Erland continued to close her eyes.

The morning...

"Where are you going, man??" Sarah wondered why her husband was so neat this morning. Though this is still the schedule for leave because of their marriage yesterday.

"You go to the hospital for a bit" Erland told his wife.

"To the hospital?? Want to see Vio again??" Sarah's face dimmed instantly.

"Yes, I didn't calm down before he was fully conscious. I feel guilty especially the same Vino"

Erland did not hide what she felt from Sarah. Although Erland is not aware if his feelings make Sarah upset.

"Mas, I was actually quite shocked by the arrival of that woman yesterday. I didn't know about him at all this time. What makes me shocked is that you promised to marry her. Doesn't anyone else think of me as a snatch for someone's future husband??" Sarah let out her heart which she had been harboring since yesterday.

"Sarah, you heard my explanation yesterday. I don't love him at all"

"Yes it's true that you say that. But in fact, since last night your mind has been on him. Now you want to see him, right??"

The first morning of the bride and groom who should still be warm is precisely in the content of the debate of the two.

Erland's father used to be a laborer in a factory. But somehow it happened, suddenly Erland's father became one of the suspects of embezzlement from the factory where he worked.

Incidentally one of the investors in the factory was Papinya Vio. That was when they met and how surprised they were both best friends since they were in school.

Then Erland's father asks Dito for help to investigate the case, and prove Erland's father's innocence.

After the case was over, Dito brought Erland's father to work with him. Since then their family relationship became closer and the coincidence again is, it turns out Vino is Erland's best friend in High School.

But a few years after that, Erland's father died of illness. At that time Erland who had just graduated from college must be the backbone of his family. He paid for his two sisters' school fees.

That was one of the reasons why Erland did not want to accept Vio at that time. Because their families are different. Erland also did not want to think about the problems of romance at that time because he had to work hard to bear the cost of living his family.

Erland who is given a smart brain, with the highest GPA on the campus, trying to build his own business from scratch. Last but surely his efforts are growing. The market is also very good, but because it is still a small company so it cannot be optimal in its operations. Until Dito wants to help Erland but without degrading all his efforts, by telling Erland to send a proposal to his company. Starting from there, the Erland company grew rapidly even though it was not as big as the company now led by Vino.

"Whatever you want to do Mas, but I ask you, don't disappoint me. Don't let you betray our marriage that was just yesterday" Sarah finally succumbed to her own feelings.

"Let's go down, lest I hear us arguing this early in the morning"

Today they are staying at the house of Gendis. The plan after a new week they will occupy their new home which is still in the finishing stages.

The two of them walked together to the dining table that had Gendis and Erland's two sisters, Endah and Edgar.

"Mother, Erland wants to go to the hospital for a while" Before her mother asked, Erland had already said it first because it was obvious that Gendis saw Erland's neat appearance.

"Aren't you going to look at Vio??" Erland Speaks a voice that only belongs to Erland.

While Endah was still reluctant to see his brother. Endah was angry that Erland had been hiding the reason Viola had been gone all that time.

"You've heard that Viola is aware of Er" Gendis said.

"Yes Ma'am"

Although annoyed that her mother-in-law also did not forbid Erland to leave, but Sarah could still hold her back. They all ended up having breakfast in silence.

Wearing a special suit to enter the ICU room, do not forget the mask and headgear Erland was already standing on the side of Viola who was lying helplessly.

But Erland had not had time to sit on the chair beside the Viola, one of the tools used Viola sounded very sparse.

"DOCTOR!!"
