Not A Perfect Marriage
CHAPTER 13 Separating the bed

"Have a good look, my wife is just Sena and you're just a thorn in the ass"

Angel shuddered at Rio's words. Fear now spread in Angel's body even his face is now pale. Angel lowered her head in fear of seeing Rio's face that looked so wrathful to her but this was also not the fault of this marriage Angel Rio's wife who asked for Sena. Angel also did not want to be like this, married without the blessing of parents and imprisoned in this luxurious house.

Rio was still staring at Angel who lowered her head. Rio was upset when he remembered Sena's words to invite Angel Honyemoon to get pregnant quickly and Sena could go home.

"Ck. Whatever!"

Rio turned around continuing his way up the stairs. Angel breathed a sigh of relief at last this suffocating atmosphere disappeared.

"If I don't need money for a hospital where I want to marry a married man"

Angel is well aware of who he is and this feeling does exist but all this he will keep himself although torturous and as much as possible secret from Rio because Angel does not want to add burden in Rio's mind.

"I'm hurt but that's the truth. My life is really sad"

Angel walked up the stairs to see Rio's state and if Rio gets angry later, Angel will leave the room immediately.

Rooms

Angel entered the room and immediately saw Rio who was asleep on his stomach and still wearing shoes. Angel clucked in annoyance as well as pity at the sight of the extremely tired Rio.

"Pay home angry"

Angel knows Rio is very sweet because it is also Rio so tentramen. Angel walked up to Rio instantly taking off the shoes on Rio's feet. Angel could hear a smooth snoring from Rio's mouth.

Angel grabbed the AC remote and lowered the AC temperature to cool down so Rio fell asleep. Just a little information that Angel is not strong cold and Rio was forced to give up.

Angel sits on the edge of the bed near Rio. Angel's hand smoothly caressed Rio's head hair with affection and Angel's smile seemed very sincere even though Rio was rude to him.

"I'm not angry, it's true but you should know I don't want to be like this either"

Angel looked at Rio's sleeping face. Angel does not know much about Rio nanun which Angel knows Rio love Sena very much because it is also Angel does not dream that later his love will be reciprocated by Rio.

"You know, I envy Sena?"

Angel starts talking to Rio who is asleep even though Angel knows Rio will not hear it but Angel can not express what is felt.

"Because you have a husband like yourself who always joins all her requests, whatever Sena wants and also the love you give to Sena. Of all that I want is that affection, is there another man like you?"

Angel bowed her head, her chest tight. Angel stroked Rio's cheeks and miraculously the smiley dent in Rio's lips was engraved by itself.

"Good sleep, yeah"

Angel kissed Rio's head then walked out of the room towards the room he was supposed to occupy from the beginning.

...

09:30

Rio descended the stairs quickly to the point that Angel thought the sound of Rio's footsteps resembled the sound of a running horse's footsteps.

Angel could see Rio's face looking panicked. Angel just frowned looking at Rio's behavior.

"Why don't you wake me up?"

Rio asked directly when he passed Angel.

"I'm afraid you're angry again" replied the short Angel then passed by Rio just like that. Rio wanted to answer Angel's words but the time has passed once so Rio prefers to go to the office.

Angel saw Rio's car departure. Earlier this morning Angel wanted to wake Rio but the fear of being scolded by Rio and not feeling good when making Rio angry after sleeping made Angel to undo his intentions.

"What is it you are?"

Angel can only pray that Rio is not like this anymore and returns well to him but Angel also prays that Rio's bad nature is also lost.

"More done again ah rather than the dizziness think big baby likes to get angry"

The big baby that Angel was referring to was Rio. Angel cleaned the house as usual. About the words of Rio who last night no longer ignore Angel after all he has also said that he works here and not as his wife.

Angel was grateful Rio said that because he knew Rio's feelings for him so there was no more hope in his life, Rio only for Sena and Sena who were in Rio's mind.

office/working space Rio

12:00 noon

Rio breathed a sigh of relief that it was not too late to attend an important meeting with the shareholders as well as his father.

"Your walking is as I want"

Rio turned his head towards the door and someone opened Rio's work door.

"Papa, what's wrong?" rio asked directly when he found out that that person was Riko.

"Does Papa have to make an appointment to meet my son?" riko's reply fiercely made Rio shake his head.

Rio got up from his seat approaching Riko. Rio invited Riko to sit on the sofa. Riko just wants to make sure her son is okay after Rio's hectic overtime schedule of late.

"You're okay, right?"

"What does Papa mean?"

"Why don't you want to get sick, all your work done?"

Rio just nodded his head answering Riko's question. Riko smiled her son always forced himself into work.

"You better take a vacation first"

"But"

"But what? you need rest too! papa is still alive and Arfan can help"

Rio only silent a thousand languages. Riko knows that her son is a workaholic and does not want to part with his favorite laptop and Riko also knows that Rio's answer is.

"No Pa, Rio's fine and there's no more overtime"

"You're! Papa diomelin mama you continue, he thinks Papa who forced you to work until like this. Look at your eye bags it's like a panda!"

The last sentence of Riko made Rio remember Angel and Rio also remembered what he had said to Angel last night and Rio cursed at what he had said.

"It's bugging you, huh?"

"Eh, sorry Pa"

"Don't force your body to work like this your body needs rest too! money can be sought but your health is more important"

"Yes Pa"

"Yes, Papa's just saying it's yours"

Riko got up from her seat, Rio escorted Riko to the front door.

Riko's First. Rio instantly ruffled his head hair. The situation now makes him dizzy especially now he has two wives.

"Until when is it like this"

...

Homehouse

Angel was watching TV in her room after cleaning this luxurious house. This room is very simple but this is enough for Angel even though Rio never told Angel to sleep outside but Angel felt bad at the same time uncomfortable being on the side of Rio who does not consider himself as wife but thorn that bothers.

"Am I a thorn?"

Angel remembered Rio's heart-piercing words. In retrospect Rio seemed to disagree with what Sena was doing but because Rio was in love, Rio was willing to do this.

Angel's left hand trembled with fear. Afraid that her parents found out and kicked her out of the house for marrying without her blessing.

Angel is trying to stay strong in the face of all this. A reality that must be passed with a chest of air and must not look back, stepping forward to find a way out for this all.

"I have to be upbeat and it's up to Rio to want what's clear I just want to return the favor for saving my father. El's spirit!"

Angel encouraged herself and held her head up against this.

...

Rio's car entered the courtyard. Rio got down from the car while his eyes were looking for something.

"Where's it?"

It turned out that Rio was looking for Angel who usually at this hour Angel was waiting for him on the floor in case he came home to lunch.

Rio entered the house and the atmosphere of the house was once quiet as if there were no inhabitants. Rio headed towards the dining table and there was no food on the table.

"What El overslept?"

Rio headed to the room to make sure Angel was sleeping or not and it was probably worst that Angel left the house because of her outrageous attitude.

"El?"

The door of the room opened with its width but Rio did not see Angel.

"What bathroom is it?"

Rio's looking for Angel in every corner of the room. Rio's calm face had now turned into panic from not finding Angel.

"El!!... Ella"

Rio exited the room in a hurry. Rio ran inside the house looking for Angel. Rio was afraid of Angel leaving the house.

"ANGEL WHERE ARE YOU!!!"

Rio shouted very loudly inside the house hoping that Angel heard it.

"ANGELS!"

Rio was getting more panicked when there was no response from Angel. Rio ran to the side wishing Angel was there.

"Where's he?"

Rio ruffled his hair desperately. It seems like what Rio feared to be the reality Angel has already left this house.

"YAHAHHH!!!!"

Rio banged his head against the house buffer. Rio was upset at his own standing especially his brain that could not think clearly.

"YINNGGGGEEEELLL!!!!"

...

Maid room

Angel is busy watching tom and jeri cartoons that can make him laugh and feel entertained by the behavior of cats and rats that never get along.

"It's funny! gemesin!"

Angel likes the scene tom and jeri romp.

"AAANNGGGGGEEEELL!"

Angel was reeling hearing Rio's cry calling for his voice. Angel turned off the TV and ran out of the room. Angel looked around and found Rio who was looking upset on the side porch.

Angel hurriedly approached Rio before Rio added angrily.

"Sir Rio nyariin?"

That voice made Rio relieved as well as angry. Angel was very worried and regretful like this. Rio turned towards Angel with a look full of anger.

"CAN'T YOU JUST BE UNCOMPLICATED ONCE?"

"What?"

Angel did not know what Rio meant. Troublesome? does Rio want to kick Angel out of here?.

"Why haven't you cooked yet? are you being lazy? COOK UP!" rio then walked into the house. Both of Angel's legs feel weak to make himself now sitting in the paving.

"Sister Rio"

Angel wiped her tears then stood up to cook food for Rio. Angel is not lazy just that she is afraid Rio does not come home and the food will be wasted.

...

Angel immediately opened the refrigerator to see what was left in it.

"There's only kale and tempe. Is it okay, Dad?"

Angel immediately took the two vegetables. Angel worked this all out as quickly as possible before Rio went down and scolded her again.

15 Minutes passed just fry tempeh and all is done.

When frying tempe Angel's mind messed up several times exposed to splashes of oil in his hand.

"ANGEL SPICE THE COOKING! I'M HUNGRY!!"

Shouted Rio who was still inside the room. Angel was in a hurry and.

kluntang..

"Aawws"

Angel complained of pain when the teflon he wanted to move instead fell on his right leg and the severity of teflon again there is a hot oil that can make the back of his feet blister.

"WHAT VOICE IS THAT!!"

Shouted Rio from inside the room. Angel looked up and was grateful Rio did not see the carelessness he made. Angel hurriedly cleaned up this mess quickly before Rio descended.

Angel put the plate on the table and all the dishes were ready to eat. Rio went down the stairs with the eagle's gaze fixed on Angel.

Rio saw what Angel was cooking and it seemed like Rio did not like it.

"Ck. Is this all you can cook?"

Angel nodded. Rio immediately left without saying anything. Rio's behavior this time made Angel cry. The pain is more painful than his foot that was doused with hot oil and a fairly heavy fall of teflon.

"Hikks... El is coming home! El won't be here anymore! brother Rio is evil!!"

...

Angel was in pain because her injuries left her in agony. The skin on his back blistered and turned blue.

"What should I do?. mother! yes, I have to ask"

Angel pulled out her old phone and called her mother.

"Mom. quickly lift!"

"What's wrong?"

Angel breathed a sigh of relief and finally her mother answered her phone call.

"Mom, El's legs are getting hot oil"

"Oh my goodness, baby! how can? there's no ointment for burns?"

There was a sound of panic from there. As a mother must be very worried about her only daughter

"don't know. Pain, mom"

"This is all you take raw eggs and you break them to rub on your wound"

"Yes ma'am thank you"

"Yes dear. You're healing fast, huh?"

"El dear mother"

"Mother too"

Angel immediately closed the phone connection and headed to the kitchen with his right leg that seemed to be numb.

...

Rio was in the room while playing mobile phone he just came home from outside looking for fresh air as well as better food than Angel made.

Rio glanced at the clock on the wall of his room already at half-eight in the night but Angel was not yet in the room.

"Whether I take care of him, want him to sleep don't I don't care!"

Rio instantly placed his pinsel on the table next to her then prepared to sleep.

Midnight

Rio's hand was touching the side but there was no Angel. Rio then turned his head towards where Angel used to lie down.

"Qc"

Rio clucked then sat his body. Rio wonder why Angel has not slept yet when it is already midnight.

"Bas on the kid's job it's hard for people!"

Rio instantly grabbed his phone to contact Angel. Sedeti then Rio heard the ringing of the cell phone like the voice of Angel's phone nearby. Rio looked around and found the phone near the sleeping lights, Rio grabbed the phone.

"It right?"

Rio understood very well with the cellphone he gave to Angel. Rio also saw the red box that he also recognized him. Rio opened the box and was surprised to see the contents.

"Angel?"

Angel seemed to return what Rio had given her. Without a second thought Rio came down from the bed looking for Angel.

Rio's coming down the stairs. The middle room was only illuminated by dim lights. Rio's looking for Angel who might be there.

"Nothing"

Rio guessed that Angel would sleep in the living room sofa or in the living room.

"What don't-don't?"

Rio rushed towards the warehouse more precisely to the maid room. When starting near Rio saw the maid's room the lights were on and Angel was afraid of the dark. Rio approached the room then opened the door slowly.

"May not be locked"

Rio peeked into the room and found Angel who was already sound asleep with a blanket covering her body.

"Great son of you well, sleep well while I worry about you"

Rio closed the door again and went back into his room. Rio regretted having worried Angel.

....

Sunlight shone on the earth again starting a new day and the chirping of the sea birds added to the impression of peace in the heart.

Angel was up five o'clock in the morning to clean the house. With his right leg still aching it even looks worse forcing Angel to wake up early for work to finish as usual.

"Aww is very sick"

Angel sat on the stairs while looking at her blistered legs. Angel wants to ask Rio for help but seeing Rio who seems to hate him makes Angel undo his intentions.

Angel heard the door flares opened instantly hurriedly standing up afraid Rio thought he was just lazing around. Sure enough Rio went down the stairs without turning his head in the slightest towards Angel. Passing Angel who stands in the middle of the stairs.

Rio's on the last step.

"I want you to clean up the dust in the curtains, no one is left unturned!"

After saying Rio again continued his steps. Rio was dressed casually and meant Rio was not leaving for the office, it seemed like Rio wanted to keep an eye on Angel.

"Yes"

Angel could only obey Rio's will. Angel looked at the curtain that was attached around her especially her curtain was higher than her.

"El's spirit!"

Angel instantly did what Rio told her to do.

...

Rio was observing everything Angel was doing from a distance but there was something that disturbed his vision which was Angel who was limping.

Rio walked over to Angel who was cleaning the curtains with a duster.

"What's your leg?"

Angel was shocked to hear the voice of Rio who is now behind him. Angel turned to Rio.

"Keselo yesterday"

Rio did not believe Angel's words immediately saw Angel's legs. Angel's legs are swollen and her instep skin is blistered.

"Why don't you say, why did it go like this??"

Rio instantly crouched down to see more clearly Angel's wounds.

"Your feet are hot oiled? what was it when you cooked yesterday?"

Angel did not answer, but lowered her head. Angel was afraid Rio would scold her for her carelessness.

"We're going to the hospital right now" Rio asked directly. Angel nodded slowly.

Rio got up from his squat then looked at Angel who seemed to be afraid of him.

"I'm forcing!"

Rio immediately carried Angel's body towards the car. Rio's face looks very anxious especially seeing Angel like this.

"I'm fine" said Angel Lirih as he lowered his head.

"Sorry" Rio said briefly making Angel look up his head staring at Rio.

Rio could not hide his anxious face on his handsome face. Angel felt bad to trouble Rio again.

Automobile

Rio several times rang the telakson his car told the car in front of him to get away.

Angel who was beside Rio felt bad on his own, Rio seemed to be in a hurry to drive his car even though Angel was not in a dangerous condition.

"Sister, slow down"

"No! I'm taut you for nothing"

Angel bit her lower lip. It seems like she really troublesome Rio.

Arriving at the hospital, Angel was immediately treated by a doctor and Rio unmitigated asked the specialist skin doctor directly who handled Angel.

"Bas with the boy"

Rio was waiting for Angel who was being treated by a doctor. In his day and night Rio thought about everything he was doing to Angel and it shouldn't be like this.

.. Nursing room 12

Rio faithfully waited for Angel to wake up. The doctor said Angel's feet should not be exposed to water first and should not be taken to move first.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't be like that"

Rio stroked the face of Angel who was fast asleep. Rio grasped Angel's hand tightly, Rio's pecking at Angel's back.

...

Angel slowly opened her eyes, the glare from the lights made Angel's eyes uncomfortable.

Angel turned to the side and found Rio who was leaning his head on the edge of the bed occupied by Angel.

Angel smiled at the end Rio was not cold anymore. Angel's hand slowly stroked Rio's head hair, a gentle touch from Angel made Rio wake up.

"Did I wake you?"

"No"

Rio confirmed his position. Seeing Angel who seemed to be fine made Rio relieved.

"This is the second time you've been to the hospital because of your carelessness!"

Angel who thinks Rio has changed now the assumption is gone instantly. Rio is still cold and annoying.

"Yes I know"

"Don't make me worry anymore"

"Yes"

"Promise?"

Angel nodded with certainty making Rio smile. Angel saw Rio's smile making his chest now not crowded anymore.

"I want to ask you something"

"What?"

"Why did you sleep in the maid's room and why did you give me back my gift including the ring?"

Rio asked as if he wanted to bring up the old wounds and had Rio forgotten what he had said to Angel.

"You said that I was just a thorn that was bothering me and I wasn't your wife so I slept in the maid's room and about the ring, I had no right to wear it"

Rio bowed his head as if regretting his actions and his words to Angel.

"I'm sorry"

"I'm the one who should apologize, I'm the one who's guilty"

Angel's words just now made Rio look up and look into Angel's eyes. Rio shook his head as if saying that this was not Angel's fault.

"No El. This is all my absolute fault"

"Means I was wrong, surely you consider me cheap huh? the solution is me. You know for yourself"

Angel could not continue his words. Rio knew this conversation should not be continued.

"That's it. Tell you what I'm sorry about and don't sleep in that room again!"

Rio took out something in his pants pocket. It was the ring that Angel returned.

"Wear this again?"

Rio grabbed Angel's right hand directly pin the cintin on Angel's ring finger.

"But you said -"

Rio instantly kissed Angel's lips stopping Angel from speaking. Rio took off the kiss with Angel's lips.

"Don't remember, yesterday I was exhausted so I was angry. I'm sorry, yeah?"

Angel feels Rio sincerely said it but Angel's heart still feels pain due to Rio's words. Seeing such a silent Angel Rio knew Angel must be very sad and difficult to forgive him.

"I'm sorry, please forgive me. Darling"

Angel stared in Rio's two eyes. Angel saw sincerity in Rio's eyes and deep regret.

"I'm sorry about you"

"Oh yeah?" rio asked in a tone full of doubt and it seemed like Rio wanted to upset Angel.

"Don't start again"

Rio chuckled softly at Angel's bulging cheeks and made Rio anxious until it felt like wanting to.

"Aww.."

Rio pinched Angel's cheek with his anxiety making the cheeked siempu stare back at Rio.

"Dangerous!"

"Belgium!"

"Don't sulk that way!"

"Modo"

"You mad?" rio asked in a plain tone as if teasing Angel.

"Haaahhh Rio!" said Angel with a snatch. Making Rio smile with satisfaction.

"What?"

"Babelle!"

"Groan!"

Rio showing his row of teeth made Angel grunt in annoyance.

"Lt!"

"Don't be that manyun! mending you a meal, I'm a bribe"

"No, you can do it yourself"

Angel positioned her body. Angel's hand immediately grabbed the manggkuk at the nearby table.

"Already, let me bribe"

Rio snatched the manggkuk in Angel's hand and then began to feed Angel. Angel who was hungry opened her mouth.

"That's cake to eat"

Angel did not speak Rio's words. Angel is tired of being here.

"You're home"

"Come home?"

"Yes, I don't want to be here!"

"Why?"

"You're on drugs, don't like it!"

Angel whines to go home to Rio. Angel never liked what hospitals called what else a patient should be.

"You're! if your feet have healed just come home"

"When?"

"I don't know maybe two weeks"

"Huh? don't want!! going home!!"

Angel continued to whine asking to go home even though Angel knew his condition now.

Rio looked at Angel with an annoyed look. Angel is like a child who does not want to obey.

"You're! I've always obeyed you so now you must obey!"

Angel scrunched her chin. Two weeks is a very long time and definitely boring. Rio who could not bear to only give up after feeding Angel, Rio will talk to the doctor asking if Angel can be cared for at home.

"You spend this first I'll talk to the doctor, ask if you can be treated at home or not"

"really? you didn't lie?

"Yes, my dear"
