The Marriage Pursuit.

HAPPY READING'S...

***

This is the first time I have fallen in love and the first time my heart has been broken... AKIRA'S.

---

Akira was still crying while staring at the floor of the room. This was the first time Akira felt a real heartbreak. Decided by Dean, his first love.

There were many dreams that Akira had knitted in his mind. Living happily with Dean as a Doctor and Nurse couple.

But in fact, the dream didn't last long because Dean had decided on it.

"Why are you doing all this?" akira asked Arjun who was currently standing on the edge of the bed.

"Lo want to know why I'm doing all this?" ask Arjun.

Arjun knew that Akira would ask all this. He also prepared answers to his wife's questions.

Akira would like to know that. What a reason that makes Arjun insist on tying Akira in a fake marriage they created themselves.

It would be nice for Arjun to accept a divorce between them. Their lives will no longer be tied to a relationship they do not want.

A relationship where there is no love in it.

"Because I don't want to hurt our parents" replied Arjun.

Akira kept crying. He did not understand Arjun's words just now. He didn't want to hurt his parents and my parents, but he didn't know that what he was doing was hurting him and me...

"Our parents are very hopeful about this relationship. Look at Arum's mother, does it not affect her health if she hears about her son's divorce? you can guarantee that?".

Akira cried again. Arjun, meanwhile, is immersed in his own thinking. I'm sorry for using my mom's health as an excuse, but that's all I can do.

"Why do you also think about mom?" ask Akira doesn't understand.

At least Arjun didn't need to think about anyone else in his life. Be a self-absorbed Arjun without seeing the circumstances around him as Akira has seen.

Be Arjun who doesn't care about Akira's grief the day after the wedding reception first.

Arjun was sitting on the floor next to his wife, his gaze staring at the wall of the room in front of him. "I want to be like that too. Living without caring about others. Doing anything in my own accord without anyone else interfering...",

Now Arjun looked at his wife, "But after getting married and having this relationship, I think life is not just about me. There are many hearts that I inevitably have to take care of. I couldn't act as I wanted to and didn't notice if it let my parents down or not. Especially with your parents...".

Akira was a little touched by Arjun's words. Far from the nature that Akira has seen in recent times from Arjun.

"But why did you threaten Dean to leave me? just so you know, Dean was my first love... Dean is the reason why I've been so happy all this time.Why is Lo so mean to him? even hitting her face so pathetic like that?" tanya Akira wants an explanation.

How he remembered Dean's face this morning when they met. There were only bruises on his face and his lips were torn as well.

"About what you created with Dean was wrong. Relationships with married women are completely unenforceable. And you need to remember... I don't regret doing that to Dean" Arjun said.

Now Arjun looked at his wife intently, "That's nothing compared to what Papi would do to your lover, I made sure Dean and his family wouldn't be safe. Also with you, I can't do anything for your life and your family.Just because you're his best friend's son, doesn't make Papi change his mind over the disappointment he gets from his daughter-in-law..."

Akira understands Arjun's implied remark that Papi Johan is a strict man and will do anything to make the guilty be a deterrent for what they do.

"I can't act on my own. Look how your parents really hope for me. How do you always ask my daughter how she is doing, always asking her if she eats well? did his daughter make a mistake? Dad always asked me that, but I never told you once" Arjun said, smiling foolishly at the end of his sentence.

Arjun used to only think of Adam's father's questions as a way to get closer to his son-in-law, but Arjun gradually realizes that all parents are worried about their children at all times in their lives.

"Daddy until I ask you that?" akira asks in disbelief that her father is always worried about her.

Though Akira always said that he was fine living in Pradipta's house.

Akira always said that he was happy to be the daughter-in-law of this family. To make her father not worry. Moreover, Adam's father is old and worried that something will affect his health.

"of course... I always ask like that, look..."

Arjun immediately opened his phone to show a message from Adam's father that was not deleted at all.

Akira took Arjun's phone, read Dad's message and didn't miss a single one. His tears regained their ground in the eye until they made his vision blurry.

Sad, happy like mixed in his heart.

Fathering...

"I didn't tie you down because of my will. I'm thinking more about our family...".

"Are you and I able to go through this fake marriage until the time we don't even know the end of it?" ask Akira. He doesn't know when to live like this with Arjun.

Arjun looked back at Akira, "We live all this as well as the flowing water...".

"Will it be when I or you really give up, can any of us choose divorce?" ask Akira. He does not love Arjun at all even though his heart often beats unnaturally while with the man, but it cannot be defined as a form of love.

Maybe that's what it feels like when the opposite sex is close together.

"I will grant it willingly." replied Arjun.

I also don't know if it's because of my parents or my own willingness to tie you up like this, which I obviously want you to always be around...

"When that day comes, without even asking, I will let you go. Let yourself live as you ask" Arjun said.

But in her heart, I hope that day will never happen Akira... I want to have a marriage once in my life...

 ---

At night, Arjun sees Akira who has fallen asleep on the sofa of the room. The little body of the girl curled up with a thin blanket wrapped around her body. Of course Arjun could not bear to see Akira fall asleep like that. With great confidence, Arjun approached Akira. Very gently, in his carrying his wife's body headed to the bed.

Does he seem to be losing a lot of weight, or maybe it's just my feeling that Akira's body is lighter than before?

Arjun laid his wife's body on the bed. Enveloped the girl and immediately fell to the side.

"It's awfully quiet that he's sleeping." muttered Arjun softly. It even sounds like a whisper.

But who would have thought that all the words Arjun just heard by Akira. It turns out that Akira woke up when Arjun was carrying her earlier.

"I can hear it yes." protested Akira with eyes still closed.

"So, you haven't slept?" asked Arjun who was surprised to see everything.

"Gue was asleep earlier, but woke up distracted by Lo's actions that suddenly moved me here..."

"Gue can't bear to see Lo sleeping on the couch" Arjun said.

"Ck.. don't pretend, I've been sleeping on the couch since the first night I lived here." protested Akira. You have been blind all this time! he told Arjun.

"Sure reason," the girl added.

Arjun smiled for a moment, his heart also confirmed that all of that was the reason. "Gue sleeps better when he's close to Lo" I'm Arjun.

Inexplicably smelling the perfume that was attached to Akira's body helped him to sleep better.

It's possible that Akira didn't know that during yesterday's fight, Arjun couldn't sleep at all because Akira was sleeping on the sofa of the room. Want to move it, but Arjun hesitates, more prestige.

"Well, I said it too." - ridiculed Akira.

"Well... 'cause I've done what I did, so you can hug right?" without asking for Akira's approval, Arjun hugged his wife's body from behind.

Even using his legs to lock Akira's legs to create a commotion again.

"Aaa.. loose, I can't move," protested Akira. Indeed he was not even able to breathe freely because of Arjun's embrace to him.

"Ssttt. silence," Arjun refused.

"Why on my own, didn't I say I wanted to be hugged?" still protesting just like before.

"Don't talk, let's get some sleep. or-"

"Or what?" ask Akira.

"Or I will make Lo not sleep all night," threatened Arjun to be able to make Akira immediately speechless.

Lothawat! all right...

Akira no longer protests. He closed his eyes and tried to go back to sleep. Think of it as sleeping in the arms of a Gorilla.
