The Married By Challenge
Part 101s

Sarah slowly opened her eyes, she blinked several times to adjust the light around her. He also tried to sit while holding his head that hurt.

On the back of her hand was stuck an infusion needle and Sarah pulled it out while grimacing. He heard a noise from outside, Sarah slowly got off the small bed and walked out. Sarah opens the door and finds Devano and William being engrossed in a fistfight while Freya is busy trying to break them but the result is nil, Sarah can only sigh heavily and let them get hit. Sarah hated Devano so much and let her brother beat her up, although there was a bit of concern in her heart seeing both of them already battered. But Sarah thought later if it was tired they would stop themselves.

Sarah rushed from there to her Mama's room. Venita is shocked to see Sarah wearing her hospital gown and her forehead on the bandage.

"What's wrong with you, son?" ask Venita to worry. Sarah forced herself to grimace as usual even though her heart was injured at this time.

"Sarah's still not very good at driving, Ma. So hit the road divider earlier, Hehe" replied Sarah so her mama wouldn't worry.

"Why are you driving by yourself? Where are you going?" ask the mother.

"You're here, Sarah, what's wrong" Sarah replied calmly.

"Yes, go back to your room and rest. Ask the doctor to check you're back, okay?" venita and Sarah nodded.

"How's "mama herself? Mama is healthy yes.." Wept out Sarah tried to hold back the tears that arrived to want to come out again.

"Mama is good, dear" replied Venita forcing herself to smile. Sarah nodded her head again while biting her lips held back the cry. He immediately came out of his mother's room before his crying broke again.

"Sarah.." call her Mama when Sarah's about to open the door. Sarah took a breath and exhaled her slowly before she finally turned her head and once again forced her lips into a smile.

"Yes, Ma?"

"You're good, aren't you, sweetie?" lirih Venita with a voice that returned to tremble.

"Well, Ma. Sarah went to the room first. The doctor will be confused if Sarah is not in the room" said Sarah and immediately she came out of her Mama's room.

When Sarah was almost in her room, she saw her father there sitting on a chair while Devano was sitting on his knees in front of her.

"Om gonna have a grandchild soon, are you happy?"

Sarah instantly held her belly "What does Devano mean? Am I... pregnant?" he murmured in disbelief, but his heart felt something warm and suddenly he smiled happy. Sarah feels happy if she is pregnant, although Sarah still feels great hatred and disappointment in the father of her fetus, but as a woman she feels happy about being a mother. And what he heard next ruined all the happiness he had only felt for a few seconds.

"Well, I don't want to have a granddaughter from the one who destroyed my family"

Deg

The happiness in Sarah's heart was like sand that was erased by a big wave, vanishing instantly. Collapsed like a dead branch blown by the wind and he again felt disappointed. Sarah understands that all her family hates Devano, even she hates him. But Sarah could not understand why her father said such a thing. Sarah felt a great pain and disappointment in her father who did not want to accept her baby. Without feeling Sarah's tears flowed back, as a mother she loved her child even though she was still a fetus in her womb. And Sarah can't stay with someone who doesn't want to accept her child's whereabouts and might hate her.

"I understand, Om. But Sarah is my wife, I'm more entitled to her than anyone, even Om and Auntie. Sarah's pregnant with my son, and they'll always be with me"

Devano's stern words make Sarah smile cynically, she knows her ambitious husband. Devano will justify any means to get what he wants. And Sarah also knows, Devano's love is mingled with obsession. Sarah remembers how Devano kept Caitlin alive when it tormented Caitlin so much, but Devano did not care and he considered her actions to be out of love. Sarah doesn't want to be on Devano's side while she hates him.

Sarah immediately rushed away from there and returned to her Mama's room.

"Well, back again?" her mother asked and Sarah smiled faintly in response to her.

"Ma, can Sarah ask you something?" ask Sarah in a low voice.

"Sarah wants to go somewhere, Ma"

"Where?"

"Sarah can't tell you..."

"Sadly..."

"Ma..." Sarah interrupted Mama quickly, she looked at her Mama with a pleading gaze and one tear drop slipped from the corner of her eye without being able to hold "Sarah just needs time alone, she said, Sarah wants to calm the mind"

"You want to go and leave us?" venita asked sadly and Sarah shook her head.

"It's only a while, Ma. When Sarah feels better Sarah will go home, Sarah promises" Sarah assures.

"But where are you going?"

"Sarah can't tell you, Mama. Because later Mama could have told me something else..."

"With Sarah, if you want Mama don't tell anyone Mama won't say. Mom promised, son. Mama's worried that Mama doesn't know where you are and how you are"

Sarah was silent for a moment, she lowered her head and sighed.

"Sarah will tell Mama, Sarah promises to be okay and Sarah promises to be home soon. Okay?" Venita nods "And Sarah also wants Mama to promise that Mama will always be healthy, do not worry about Sarah what else to make Mama drop. When Sarah comes home later, Sarah wants to see Mama happy and calm and healthy"

"Yes, honey... But tell Mama soon..." Sarah nodded and she hugged her Mama tightly. Her mother kissed Sarah's face many times while crying but she tried hard. Venita tries to understand if Sarah really wants to get away from the current situation and Sarah wants to be alone.

"Let's tell Mama right away, son" Sarah nodded and kissed both of her cheeks "You know the code, right? Take whatever you need, honey. And if less soon contact Mama" said his mother who made Sarah giggled, of course he needed money for his needs what else he is pregnant now. Sarah has to take good care of her baby. Sarah nodded and once again hugged her mother tightly.

After that he immediately went home to pick up some clothes and money for his needs.

"Sorry Sarah, Pa, Ma, Brother Will... Sarah knows when Sarah will be back. But Sarah felt squeezed with all the disappointment because of the lies of Devano and also Papa who would not accept Sarah's child. Sarah loves all of you, and even you Devano. I hate myself for still loving you" Sarah muttered as she stroked her stomach and she leaned her head over the shoulder of someone beside her. Sarah felt very tired with everything she faced, Sarah felt powerless again.

And her pregnancy didn't really surprise Sarah, because Sarah never took her Pill a week more because Devano gave the pill to Juan and Sarah did not immediately buy a new one because Devano was always busy and Sarah did not dare to buy it she's alone. While their love affair goes on a very routine basis and Devano never once took his seed outside. So Sarah had guessed that she could have been pregnant.

Now he is on a bus that is traveling at moderate speed. It was dark, the moon and stars were peering in the sky as if impatiently wanting to show the light of their beauty after the scorching sun sank.

Sarah was covered with a scarf to keep her warm and not exposed to the night breeze.

"Sleep, Sarah. I'll wake up when we get there" said the man, stroking Sarah's hair loosely.

"Thank you, Vin..."
