The Marriage For A Reason
Chapter 4

Alex was so kind and considerate of me, I could see the sincerity behind his attitude.

I enjoyed my days with my college activities and after I finished I returned to the apartment.

It's been two weeks that Alex hasn't come to see me, and I think the man is busy with his job responsibilities.

I'm not demanding much because he's nobody to me, with all the help Alex has given me so far it's enough to thank him.

Until one morning somehow my body feels weak, my head hurts and nausea overwhelms me.

Indeed, some days I have felt a lack of appetite and nausea, but I think I just catch a common cold or maybe my heartburn relapses.

After I got out of bed I took my foot to the bathroom to get ready to go to college.

Suddenly my legs went out like I was losing energy and my vision went dark after that I was unconscious in the bathroom.

I didn't know what happened after that, when I realized I was in bed and Alex was by my side.

I opened my eyes and I looked at Alex with a face full of question marks.

The man seemed to be thinking of something very heavy.

"You've realized Siera?" ask Alex.

"Why am I suddenly here? As I recall I was in the bathroom" I said, recalling the previous incident.

"So you passed out in the bathroom, thankfully I came and helped you.

Why don't you tell me you're sick Siera?" alex said to me with a worried face.

It turned out that this morning Alex called me many times but got no answer, so that made the man immediately follow to the apartment.

And find me lying in the bathroom fainting.

"I'm sorry if I've troubled you, I thought everything would be fine" I replied.

"The reality is just the opposite of Siera.

I'm sorry if I'm ignoring your feelings, I'd like to ask you something?" Alex asked very carefully.

"Guanto wants to ask what? I'll answer" I replied.

"Have you ever had an illicit relationship with another man Siera?" alex asked as if he was waiting for an answer from me.

"Why did you ask me that?

A question I shouldn't answer sir" I said in anger.

I was honestly offended by Alex's question, why could the man ask me that.

Questions that don't make sense to my mind, what to ask.

"I need an answer from you and this is for the good of both of us" Alex said firmly.

"I only did it with you and that once, it was unconscious. Why did you ask that?" I replied because I didn't know what Alex meant by asking that.

"That means you're pregnant with my son Siera" she said, squeezing her hair.

My heart almost stopped beating hearing Alex's words I wanted to jump off the floor of the apartment and die.

What other problems are coming up now? It is not enough that God has punished me with all the problems before.

My chest was as tight as my tears could not stand, I squeezed the bedsheets that covered my body I felt like I wanted to scream and run from this reality.

Where is God now? Where is God's justice for me?

One problem has not been solved why a new problem comes, I hate all this, hate myself because of my stupidity and my carelessness all this can happen.

Alex was silent a thousand languages I saw the look of a face full of burden.

I don't know what to do after this.

"We must marry, even without love for the good and future of our children.

I may not be a good man to you but let me take care of you and our son" Alex ventured to speak.

I just kept quiet and didn't know what else to answer, I didn't understand being happy or disappointed.

"Siera...Ask my question, do you want to marry me? I will learn to accept and love you" Alex said.

My lips are still moaning it's hard for me to talk, I don't know what to do right now.

I got out of bed and I ran out, I couldn't live this life that was too cruel for me.

Alex chased after me and my pace lost quickly to him he hugged me from behind and stopped my steps.

"Siera, please don't act stupid and I'm sorry for making you like this" Alex said, hugging me tightly.

I still can't speak My chest is still too tight just sobs are heard.

The tears and the water of my nose kept flowing I felt like I really could not bear this burden.

"Lord why don't you just take my life?" my screams in my heart.

"Is there not a little happiness that God has left in my life?" my question is in my little heart.

Long time I was silent and long time ago Alex hugged me, he did not let go I might be afraid I was desperate to do something stupid.

"Siera. let's go back to the room, don't do anything stupid please.

Don't torture yourself anymore, what you're dealing with is too much" Alex told me.

Then Alex pulled me in her arms and stroked my hair while I still sobbed in my tears.

"Hold Siera and you must be strong, if you hurt yourself you will hurt the life in your womb.

Even if he was born from a mistake but he does not deserve punishment from our parents.

I beg Siera you must be strong and we face this problem together.okay" said Alex at length and width.

With care Alex took me back to the room and laid my weak body on the bed.

After enveloping my body Alex again sat on the side of the bed and faithfully waited for me.

"Can you leave me alone?" suddenly my lips let out a word.

"No, I won't let you alone Seira.

I will accompany you here tonight" Alex said firmly.

"But I need time to be alone and think" I said amid my sobs.

"Let me accompany you at this time, don't refuse Siera please" Alex replied.

I can't speak anything at the moment I just want to cry to let go of the tightness in my chest.

I close my eyes so I can think how and what to do.

Sometimes I open my eyes for a while I say Alex is picking up clothes in the closet and changing them into casual clothes.

This apartment is his and there are still many things Alex is living in here.

Even though this apartment is large but deliberately designed only one bedroom but quite large.

Maybe Alex had his own reasons for designing it like this.

After the man changed into casual clothes he laid his body on a long sofa in this room.

"Rest Siera, so that your mind is calm and we can continue our conversation again" Alex said, closing his eyes.

It seemed that the man was also dizzy thinking about this matter.

Hopefully there is a way out for the problems we are facing right now.
