Sheila sat on a wooden chair crying. Look at Aunt Yum who is cleaning up her things. In accordance with the decision of the great mistress of the house, who wanted Aunt Yum to retire immediately. The woman who has worked for decades looks so sad to pack her things.
"Don't go, Auntie.." - Sheila. Sobs were heard back in the room.
Aunt Yum approached and immediately hugged the wife of a man she had raised. "Don't be afraid, son! Auntie will keep trying to contact Marchel. He cannot be contacted yet. The phone is inactive. As soon as Marchel can be contacted, Bibi will tell him about all the Madam's deeds. So Marchel can come back soon."
"I'm scared, Auntie." Sheila was reluctant to take off the middle-aged woman's embrace. "I'd like to come with Aunt. Brother Marchel is not here. They'll torture me again. Please don't leave me, Auntie."
"Everything's gonna be okay, Sheila. Believe this. God never sleeps." Aunt Yum rubbed Sheila's back. Trying to give strength to the girl. "Look! Fight when your mistress or Audry tries to hurt you. If you don't fight back, they'll torture you even more."
The knocking of the door sounded. A driver stood in the doorway, who would take Aunt Yum to the village where she was from.
Sheila's tears just kept flowing, unstoppable. Aunt Yum rubbed the top of Sheila's head.
"Sheila's... You must be strong. Don't keep crying. Auntie will be back here when Marchel gets home. So don't be sad... Everything's gonna be okay."
"Don't leave me, Auntie. Shanum's brother is gone, Marchel too. And now it's Aunt who's leaving me."
Auntie Yum could only cry. Regret the hardness of the heart of the woman he has served for decades.
Sheila looked at Aunt Yum's departure with a sad feeling. Now, there's no protection from anyone in that house. Marchel and Aunt Yum left the same day. Sheila remained alone with the evil foxes who were ready to pounce on her mercilessly.

The day changed, the suffering of the little girl began again. Mom and Audry actually used the opportunity to torture Sheila. The work that the Servant was supposed to do, was charged at Sheila.
No matter day or night. Mom and Audry were like they had no mercy. Asking Sheila to do whatever they want. Marchel's absence really put the two people to good use.
They knew Marchel was going to an inland area where there wasn't even a cellular network.
As for Sheila, every night she did just keep trying and trying to call her husband's number. However, it has tried dozens of times not also connected. I don't know why I miss her husband so much. Sheila looked only at the photo of Marchel stored in her mobile gallery.
"Sister Marchel... I miss you so much." Sheila put her phone on the chest. Her tears came back.
If you can choose, it feels like Sheila just wants to leave the house. Leave everything and start a new life. However, there was now love in her heart for Marchel, so she chose to stay in the house, waiting for her husband's return.
"When did Brother Marchel come home?"
Missing is heavy. It was as if there was a large chunk of rock and squeezed his chest. Missing the embrace and caress of Marchel's hand that has accompanied her nights.

Hueek!!
Sheila was vomiting in the bathroom. Sheila was so nauseous when she smelled the aroma of fried rice cooked by one of the servants in the house.
"Miss Sheila why is she vomiting?" ask a waiter.
While stirring the fried rice, the woman clucked. "I feel so sorry for him. Her husband left her alone. See how the lady treats her in this house. He's being tortured for the job we're supposed to be doing."
"Yes, I feel sorry for him too. But how. The lady hated him so much. I think Miss Audry is the one who made the lady hate Sheila so much. Back when Marchel was dating Miss Shan, wasn't she being nice to Sheila?"
"That's also I know. But baby everything's changed now."
"If only Dr. Marchel knew what they were doing to his wife. He must be very angry."
"Is Miss Sheila pregnant?" whispered the woman. "He was vomiting in the morning. It's a pregnancy symptom."
"Zh! Quiet Lia! If the madam hears, it'll be bad." The woman turned off the stove, then whispered back, "I'm also suspicious. These days he has no appetite. His face was pale too."
"But if she's really pregnant, why didn't she say. Doctor Marchel's been gone a month, Tina."
"Maybe Miss Sheila doesn't know yet. He is still very young. She may not even know about pregnancy. Or maybe it's just the cold."
Not long after, Sheila came out of the bathroom with a pale face. Sit in a chair where you usually have breakfast with the waiters.
"Miss Sheila... What was? Is Miss sick?" ask the woman.
"I'm fine Aunt Lia. I just feel nauseous. The smell of fried rice is bad."
Aunt Lia and Tina glanced at each other after hearing the words of her master's wife. But they are still silent. Not telling her suspicions.
"What would Miss eat? We'll make it," he said.
Sheila simply smiled as she shook her head, "No need, Auntie! I'm not eating."
"But Miss can be sick." The two housekeepers looked worried for Sheila.
"I'm okay, really! I'm just going to school." Sheila grabbed her backpack and immediately walked out of the kitchen.
Since Marchel's departure, Sheila took a bus daily. Because the mother did not allow the driver to drive her to school at Audry's instigation, even before leaving, Marchel had ordered all the workers in the house to serve Sheila well.
Still with a pale face and a listless look, Sheila walked in the school corridor, enduring the nausea and headache she had been feeling since.
When I was about to enter the classroom, suddenly everything looked dark. Sheila collapses and collapses.
Some of the students who were looking, immediately approached and huddled there.
Rayhan had just arrived and looked at the crowd of students. As usual, the indifferent Rayhan, just looked around at the crowd of students.
"What's up there? You brat! They always do something unimportant!" gerutu Rayhan's.
He was about to step away when his pair of neutrals caught Sheila lying on the floor. The worry suddenly spread. Immediately, Rayhan approached and grabbed Sheila's body.
"Sheila! Sheila! Sheila wake!" call Rayhan while gently patting Sheila on the face. Then glanced at the few students who were crowding there with growling faces. "What did you guys do to him until he passed out like this?" rayhan shouted emotionally.
The entire student was silent. However, one of the students ventured to answer, "Don't know. He just came in and passed out."
Because it never realized, Rayhan finally chose to hold it and bring it to the UKS room which is not far from his classroom.
