That night Lia still felt very foreign, too big a change she felt. On the balcony of his room, enjoying the cold night air.
"Think what?" tanya Vi suddenly slid her hand on Lia's stomach.
"I just feel..."
The sound of hp ringing disconnected his speech. Lia took the hp and swiped the button up.
("Bak Lia, the fire house..")
netra Lia widened, though,
"What's? whose house is burning?"
("Our house is mbak.")
"How can our house burn? What's...."
V swept Lia's phone, tilted her body and smeared Lia's soft lips that opened in shock to her husband, suddenly seizing and breaking her conversation with Farah.
Lia did not resist, although she wanted to feel rebellious and berated V because she was receiving news that shook her feelings at this time. But even forced him to make out.
"There are a few things you have to remember when you become my wife" said V slowly,
V pulled Lia's hand into the room, pressed her shoulder to sit on the lip of the bed. He took out a piece of paper from inside the desk drawer near the walk in closed, then handed it to Lia.
"Since that day, you no longer have any relationship with them" said V staring at Lia who holds the dossier of the agreement signed by his own father. Lia smiled wryly.
"I know." - I'm weak and sad.
"Why did they break the promise and call you?"
"Our house is on fire."
"Then?"
"Our house is on fire V." Lia's crying can't stem her tears."Our memories of childhood are burned..."
V crouched down in front of Lia, staring at her woman from below.
"They've got a billion to fix it" he said, clutching Lia's hand.
"What's been burned can't bring back memories."
"You're right. Then why did they contact you? Bother you again? Blackmailing you again? Or sell you... Any more?"
A sharp eye gaze and implying anger came out along with a question from V's mouth.
Lia sniffles..."Is correct..."
'Father has already sold me on V, even at an unreasonable price. I have to obey him. I belong to him now.'Inner Lia looked sadly at V. She cried and hugged her husband.
"You're right V, why do I still care about the family that sold me?" lia's crying was getting more and more bitter. "Why am I still worried about them? Why am I still thinking about them? They're mean to me? They sold me? made me a dairy cow and a debt-redeemer. Why do I still care?"
V grabbed onto Lia's body which continued to cry bitterly. rubbed her head gently and warmly.
"That's because you're too good. Sometimes it's good we need to cut off communication so that our souls are happy and free from things that poison...."
V continued to gently rub Lia's hair, giving her strength and calmness amidst her sadness and tears. This is the best thing, it should cut off all communication.
'This is my fault, I had to change Lia's phone from the beginning so they wouldn't bother me anymore.' thought V
"Please promise me you won't contact them again" V said firmly."At least, in the near future, for the next year or two."
That night, Lia fell asleep in her husband's arms. The sound of breathing still softly sounded, because I was crying too long ago.
V pulled his hand, and got up slowly so that his wife would not wake up. Fixing blankets that had been blurred. V took Lia's phone, then walked out of the room.
"Please take care of the Subekti family in village X, keep them out of my wife's reach."
Phone connection is broken. V takes his breath.
"What else is it?" suga's voice made V turn, though,
"It hasn't been a week, and they've been teasing again." V complained to his brother.
"They're indeed a toxic family."timpal Suga patted his sister's shoulder."I'll have people finish them."
"No need, I've handled it, brother should take care of Jeni and Gani alone." said V stepped away
After changing Lia's mobile number and deleting everything related to her Family. V lays his body on his female side.
"Right now I just want you and me." murmured V,

The next morning, V went to Resto while Lia who had become unemployed since her resignation because of her mother made Lia just stay home.
There's nothing she does but accompany Jeni and Gani.
"What's it like to be V's mistress?"
"uumm.. I don't know. I'm confused." replied Lia soberly. He was indeed confused by the circumstances that suddenly made him like Cinderella.
"What are you confused about, right?"
"Did you know from the beginning V was just pretending to be a commoner?"
"Hmmmm.... How is it?" Jeni was confused how to start telling stories."Actually, when I knew V I was just like you. I just found out that she's Suga's sister, when she's going to replace her brother, but she's not. I was surprised at that time, too."
Lia bowed her head to the cheeks of baby Gani. Jeni looked at Lia.
"Do you feel lied to?" guess Jeni. Lia held her head up again.
"So, I just don't like this. Her taste was so.." Lia's throat was choked.
"I understand how you feel. But nothing will change Lia. V will be as before. Because it is already his nature. Bumi, mingle with society and do many other good. Unlike Suga who..."
Lia smiled a little.
The day changed, that afternoon after all the homework was done. Lia's laying down her body on the living room floor. V did live with Lia in a simple two-bedroom house, and the yard was spacious enough to decorate the mango and guava trees on the back. The house is located in a residential complex near the resto and Carwash.
Lia kept looking at her phone, waiting for Farah or at least her house person to call. However, no messages came in. Lia feels pretty weird.
"I promised I wouldn't call them. But I feel very worried." muttered Lia.
When V is not home, Lia tries to find the number of one of her family. But he also did not find.
"Why doesn't the number exist?" lia's murmuring was getting confused.
"They didn't call me again after that night either."
Lia checked her contact number and her phone number again. Lia smiled wryly. Realizing that everything has changed.
"You're so evil V. Why have you let me out of my family's shackles so far?"
There was the sound of the gate opening. Lia was sure it was her husband. He moved and walked to open the front door. Sure enough, V just parked his classic bike next to the terrace.
"Bored no?" ask V with a smile on his face, walk over."Temenin I'm surveying where to open a Rescue restaurant branch."
"Where?" She asked back to kiss V's hand.
"There is." V said passed into the house, Lia followed."What are you cooking? I'm hungry."
