The Marriage Tragedy Mixed
Chapters 30. The Past Joshua.

Manhattan, three years earlier.

Joshua opened his eyes as the sunlight burst into the room, smashing into his handsome face that was filled with bruises. The young man grimaced with the pain at the corner of his broken lip.

"Damn it!" maki Joshua was about to move his body, but his bones seemed to crumble dim. I don't think he has the power to just move a little.

However, due to his stomach rumbling, Joshua forced himself to wake up. Taking a pause to prepare his body to move out of the room, he sat on the edge of the bed.

This room is not his. Of the objects in it, of course, it can be guessed if the owner of the room is a woman.

"You awake?" The owner of the room looked out from behind the door. "I've prepared breakfast."

"Thank you, Meg." Joshua grimaced as he held his stomach as he stood up.

"You need my help?" ask Megan. She was a sweet-faced girl with beautiful green eyes.

"It looks like it is." Joshua stretched out his hand. Megan welcomes him, then leaves Joshua out of the room, heading to the dining table that merges with the living room sofa.

Breakfast was served on the dining table. Megan helped Joshua sit down the chair she had prepared. Then the girl sat across.

"You angry?" asked Joshua while staring

Megan who was enjoying her breakfast while her head bowed.

"Why still ask? Of course I'm angry" Megan replied.

"Oh, come on, honey. I just got a little wound."

Brakkkk

Megan slammed the spoon and fork onto the plate. Her sweet face was flushed red restraining anger. His breath is hunting.

"I don't want my son to be born without a father!" his jolt.

"I'm fine, Meg."

"For now!" exclaim Megan. Her tears were already welling up in the eyes.

"Mr ...."

"See you now? Battered. Tomorrow, or tomorrow again, maybe you go home with just a name," Megan choked. Her tears also spilled.

"Hey, hey, sweetie .. auchh!" Joshua grimaced in pain as he stood up and

approaching Megan.

However, he tried to force himself to approach his lover. "I promise. I'll be fine." He stroked Megan's stomach, which was starting to get a little distended, behind her big sweatshirt.

"Stop, Josh. I beg. Can't we just live normally?" megan asked in despair.

"I can't, Meg. We need a lot of money for our living expenses and our children later."

"Why don't you ask your parents for help. They have a lot of money. And you're the only child."

Joshua shook his head. "They don't accept me anymore."

Megan wiped away the tears with the back of her hand. He looked at Joshua with a broken feeling. "I'm afraid of losing you, Josh," he said.

"Not going to." Megan's lips pecked at a glance, then hugged her tightly. "Come on, continue to have breakfast" he said moments later.

Trained, Joshua returned to his chair. Both of them enjoyed breakfast with a nice atmosphere. Joshua occasionally joked to make Megan smile.

And the woman had to put her smile on. No matter how angry he is, Joshua is still able to make it melt.

"They must be after you." He warned.

"I'm ready." Joshua smoked his cigarette deeply, then exhaled it into the air.

"But they can also target the people closest to you."

Joshua's chest is pounding. Megan. He must secure his beloved from the reach of those who can harm him.

Joshua had killed the brother of one of the gangster leaders who became his boss' rival. They certainly will not remain silent. He must be ready if one day his life will be in their hands.

However, Joshua had to make sure Megan was safe. He does not want anything to happen to his lover who is pregnant with his child.

But what he and his boss are afraid of becomes a reality. He's late.

As he prepares to secure Megan, Joshua is shocked by an event that leaves his life in ruins.

The enemy had already reached Megan. The woman died in her apartment. So is the baby she is carrying.

It was the darkest day in the twenty-four years Joshua lived in the world. He must watch their lovers and future children leave for good.

Not only that, Joshua is accused of the murder of Megan. So he also had to stay in prison.

The hard days he spent behind bars for almost three years, until somehow the trial for Joshua was held again and he was found not guilty.

Out of prison, Joshua finds out that both his parents died in an accident. Although he had not been in contact with his father and mother for a long time, however, the news still left him in shock.

Joshua felt he had to leave America and live somewhere far away. He also went to Indonesia, with only a visit visa and plane ticket. Then he met Risa, the woman who then broke his heart for the second time.

Until he meets Jana, the innocent girl he got randomly. The girl who suddenly invites him to marry without investigating his origins. The girl who was so sincere in love with him, however, Joshua's heart had not yet fully accepted Jana.

Joshua felt sorry for the girl. Jana tries hard to adapt to living in this country. As Joshua saw, Jana always busied herself with outside activities.

The one thing that made Joshua admire the girl was that he never asked about the legacy that Joshua always heralded. Jana actually has the initiative to work to help their economy.

Joshua was forced to return to the black world he had left for the past year. There was no normal job he could do in Manhattan. It's very difficult for someone who has a criminal history like him.

And Jana, so patient with him. Although Johsua did not know what was on the girl's mind. Clearly, Jana never protested and was always sweet.

That night, after finishing his job selling goods to customers, Joshua intends to take Jana to dinner.

And the girl's reaction was completely unexpected. Jana looks so happy. She polishes the face and dresses the body, with the best makeup and clothing. In fact, Joshua would only take him to a small restaurant.

Only a fast food restaurant is on the outskirts of Harlem.

"You just got paid, huh?" kekeh Jana while enjoying a piece of burger.

"You could say so." Joshua smiled at the smile.

Jana nodded. Since then his smile has always been on his tiny lips. His face was so bright and bright.

"Such a burger. Different, yes, with the one in Jogja."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yes, different."

"Wise."

"Of course." Jana grimacing. She looked at Johsua across the table, admiring her beautiful husband.
