"Sister Melody!" Call Navya with a knock on the door in Melody's room.
"Yes!" Melody replied as she got up from her seat and went out to see Navya.
"What's wrong?" Melody asked Matthew's sister who was currently pregnant. The age of Melody and Navya content is even the same and only a difference of weeks.
"Come with me first! Brother Matthew wants to introduce someone," Navya asked as she pulled Melody's arm and took her to the living room. There was already Matthew, Erlan, and a foreign woman who seemed to be the same age as Melody.
Who's the lady?
"This is my wife Melody" Matthew said, introducing Melody to the foreigner.
"And Melody, this is Felichia, a friend of Navya and Erlan," continued Matthew who instead introduced the foreign woman who turned out to be Felichia.
What is Matthew's jal?
Or Matthew's second wife?
Whatever!
Melody will slim down to ask for separation if it is a second wife Matthew's candidate or Matthew's affair!
"Melody," said Melodi, mentioning her own name while shaking hands with Felichia. The woman's smile was warm and friendly, although the look on her face seemed to hide a sadness.
I don't know!
"So, Melody! I've taken the decision to make this Felichia your personal maid-"
"I don't need a personal maid!" Sela Melody fast.
"Of course you need, Mel! You're getting bigger and I don't want you to get tired" Matthew rubbed Melody's stomach, but the woman directly jerked him.
"I told you I didn't need it, so I didn't need it! Don't push me or get attention!" Melody said as she stared intently at Matthew.
"Alright, sorry! Can you sit down again?" Pinta Matthew softly guided Melody back to sit next to him.
"Maybe I'll just find a job somewhere else, Nav," whispered Felichia who seemed to feel uneasy with Melody's attitude.
"No need, Fe!" Matthew said quickly.
"Your son might be brought by Dean to this town in the near future. So you just work here."
"You can be a maid first for a while, because it happens that there is one maid who resigned as well. It's nothing, right?" Matthew said at length to Felichia.
"Do you have a son?" Melody asked Felichia reflexively.
"Yes, I just gave birth a few weeks ago, but my son was taken away by someone and I'm waiting for him to come back now," felichia replied while commenting on the smile even though it seemed that the woman was actually holding the pain in her heart.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to" Melody immediately felt guilty.
"I'm fine! I'm just looking for a job so I can take a little bit of a turn for the sadness, Miss Melody," Felichia said with a smile.
"Then! You're my personal maid," Melody finally broke up.
"You changed your mind?" Ask Matthew to make sure.
"Yes." Yeah." Melody nodded.
Although Melody was still at a loss to have to tell Felichia anything later. Melody used to do everything independently long ago, and now while living in Matthew's house or rather since becoming Matthew's wife, Melody was forbidden to do this and there was always a maid serving Melody.
"Thank you, Miss Melody!" said Felichia and Melody just nodded awkwardly while commenting on the thin smile.
"So from today Fe will be a personal maid for Melody's sister" Navya again confirmed.
"You're not looking for a private maid either?" Melody slightly mince words to Navya.
"I already have," Navya replied with a chuckle. Melody just rounded her lips.
How could Melody forget that Matthew loved her little sister so much. Surely Matthew also provided a dozen maids to Navya at his house.
"You can rest first, Fe!" Matthew then said to Felichia. Melody continued to watch as Matthew spoke to Felichia as if looking for something. But Matthew's gaze and manner of speaking were as ordinary as when Matthew spoke to the maid at home or to Navya. There is no interest.
Why would Melody have to be dizzy?
There's still Sam who's willing to accept Melody.
Sam....
It's been almost two months that Melody hasn't seen Sam again. Somehow that guy is now.
"I'll go back to the room. Excuse me," said Melody as she left Matthew, Navya and Erlan who just nodded.
"Bang," Navya stared in concern at Matthew who was just smiling faintly.
"I'm still trying to take her heart" Matthew confided in Navya.
"Abang has abandoned all bad habits Brother, right?" Ask Navya to make sure. Navya's question here of course refers to the habits of Matthew who previously liked to sleep with many women.
"It's been a long time" replied Matthew solemnly.
"I just want to be loyal to Melody now, even though Melody still has not accepted me," continued Matthew who immediately made Navya pat the back of the Brother.
"Sooner or later, Melody's sister will be sure to open her heart to you."
"Be patient, Bang!" Entertain Navya to give spirit to Matthew.
"Surely it!"
****
Night crawled up.
Matthew opened the door of the room and Melody immediately turned her back to the entrance. It was common for Matthew to get such treatment from Melody. Perhaps this was also a punishment for Matthew for his past attitude.
Matthew did not go to bed and chose to turn on his laptop and check out some work. Every now and then, Matthew would glance towards Melody who remained at home on her back. Long enough Matthew struggling with his work, until the clock in the room has shown at eleven o'clock at night.
Melody's breath was already seen in order, indicating that the woman was already slumbering in her sleep. Matthew reached out his hand to rub Melody's back, as a sudden delirium sounded from the woman.
"Sam."
Matthew stopped his rubbing on Melody's back.
"Sam, I'm sorry," Melody kept delirious and called out Sam's name.
Actually this is not the first time Melody delirious and calling Sam's name. She seemed to miss Sam a lot. Matthew himself also did not know what the real relationship between Melody and Sam before the 'accident' that time. Matthew thought Melody and Sam were just friends, but until now Matthew realized that Melody and Sam might have a special relationship.
"Brah!"
"I'm not Sam, Mel!" Matthew replied, smiling wryly. Matthew's hand again rubbed Melody's back, as the woman turned and faced Matthew. The sadness was still visible on Melody's face as if she was carrying a heavy burden.
Matthew let out a long sigh and stared fixedly at Melody's face.
If with Matthew, Melody continues to be sad maybe it's time for Matthew to give up and let Melody be happy.
"Hi, Honey! Sorry for always making your mom sad." Matthew had swiped Melody's stomach which had begun to round even though it was not too big. Melody content is currently only even five months.
"Papa's T-shirt will take your mom to meet the man she loves. Papa won't make your mama sad anymore" Matthew put away the laptop on his lap, and put his head close to Melody's stomach.
"Papa loves you!"
