Shackles Desire of Stepchildren
Rejection of Bram

As soon as Hans, Alice slowly stepped into the room where Bram was screeching the class while slamming the chair. While Meera she did not hear any sound as a result of falling asleep.

"What does this all mean, Bram? Don't tell me you sold your restaurant to redeem me from that dark house?"

Alice spoke with a flat face, while standing right behind Bram made her immediately turn around and look at Alice. "A-alice, what are you doing here? Mom-wasn't you in the bedroom again?"

Bram was surprised when Alice was in front of him, when Bram lived Alice was asleep. I don't know what Bram will explain to Alice, because her lips are so twisted to say a word to her.

"David, Bram. Answer!" screeched Alice with her voice.

Bram's lips trembled because he was confused as to what to answer, because he never told Alice how she could free him.

Bram could only nod his head slowly making Alice pull the collar of Bram's shirt, look at him and spill all her annoyance and anger.

According to Alice Bram too bo*doh to release him, by selling his own source of income.

"Why don't you tell me the same story that you set me free in that way, huhh! Why, Bram. Why!"

"It should be before you take that action, you should talk to me not to make a decision yourself!"

"If this is how it is? I feel guilty for making you unemployed, just for the sake of saving a trashy woman like me, I don't want Bram. Not willing! Hicks ...."

Alice smacked Bram's chest to tears full of guilt, because for Alice. He was the cause of Bram to lose the source of his search eye. While Bram was hugging tightly, Alice tried to calm him down slowly

"Sorry, Lis. I-I don't want to say any of that because you will definitely forbid me from releasing you. And I don't want that to happen, you remember I didn't promise in front of your grandmother so I won't make any of it!"

"You're a good woman, Lis. A strong woman and an unyielding woman, so I don't want you trapped in that dark house. You can walk on a bright road, no longer be in a dark place!"

The tight hug managed to attract Alice's sympathy to be even calmer, Bram let go of his embrace and scooped Alice's face with a loving look.

"Denger yes, Lis. You're a good woman, I don't want to see you play with a be*jat guy like all of them. You deserve to be happy, and you have the right to choose your own path with your partner."

"What if you were my partner? Do you want to?"

Degh's!

Alice's serious words made Bram speechless, he immediately detached himself from Alice and turned around with an inexplicable facial expression. Now, his heart trembled slightly when he heard the sweet words spoken from Alice's lips.

"Why Bram? Was it wrong of me to say that?" Alice walked up and stood back in front of Bram staring at his face that was always trying to avoid him.

"Would I have started loving you? It is wrong that I am comfortable with you, and expect our relationship is not just pretend, but serious? Wrong?" join Alice with tears back on her cheeks.

The silence of a thousand languages makes Bram do not know what to answer like anymore. Until finally he accidentally said a sentence that slightly scratched Alice's heart.

Alice smiling little looked at Bram with tears that kept dripping. "I'm sorry if I made you angry. To be honest, this time I can no longer hide my feelings for you. For that I am happy to be able to express it, even though it does not match my feelings. It's okay, what matters is that I'm relieved."

"You take it easy, I will return all the money you have given me to penetrate me. Sooner or later you'll get it, yes I'm back in the room first."

Alice continued to smile covering her wound, while Bram felt guilty that she had accidentally pinched Alice's little heart. Seeing that Alice had begun to move away and disappear, Bram only regretted his own actions.

"Arghhh,*al! Why should the cave talk rich like Alice, anyway! Then you're lying about your own feelings Bram, Bram. Basic bo*doh!" screeched Bram with all his frustration and regret.

Alice who had returned to her room immediately ran to the bathroom, she cried in the running water lamenting the fate and also the pain she felt as a result of Bram's refusal.

While Bram who had caught up with Alice banged on the bathroom door full of anxiety, until a few minutes Alice came out in a state of calm and smile.

It felt like Bram was eager to say that he loved Alice, but his mouth was hard. The word love that should have been thrown, is now replaced with small questions from Bram that ascertain whether Alice is okay or not.

Alice could only continue to smile and say that she was already much better than before, then immediately threw herself down in a slanted position while closing her eyes.

Bram sat slowly on the edge of the bed staring at Alice's slightly trembling back. Bram knew that Alice's feelings were very chaotic at the moment, so he didn't want to talk any deeper before she was completely calm.

...In Meera and Hans's room...

Meera accidentally woke up as her throat felt very dry, slowly began to sit slightly stretching her body and her eyes began to open.

However, when she wanted to check on her husband. Meera is shocked when Hans is not there. Meera quickly tied up the origin of her hair to the clasp, then went all over the place to find her husband while fetching drinking water.

"Gosh, midnight like this where is he? Don't tell me it's in the workspace? Ckk, basic ngeselin. Udah said the health care is still staying up late for a job that should be done tomorrow." murmured Meera while walking down the steps to Hans' office.

After checking into the room, Meera was surprised by the appearance of a room that was quite messy. So that Meera's mind drifted everywhere worrying about her husband's condition.

Anxious and confused face now struck Meera, all the places she visited. Hans was absent, as Meera returned to the kitchen to fetch water, accidentally leaving the side door of the kitchen open and unlocked.

Curiosity makes Meera speed up her drink and put the glass, then go towards the park to ascertain whether it is her husband or not.

A few minutes later turned out to be true, if Hans was sitting in a long chair staring at the sky while crying without a sound. Meera slowly approached Hans, then sat down next to him holding her husband's hand and leaning against his chest.

Hans was a little surprised then turned to his wife quickly, where their eyes were staring at each other. Meera gave a small smile looking at her husband, her hands slowly raised to wipe every tearful patch on her husband's cheeks.
