THE TORTURED WIFE
Memory Return

One Month Later

Lara is cooking in the kitchen. She has been cooking since Mahira lived with her. Alex often leaves early in the morning for meetings. Lara tries to give her best for Alex and Mahira. When she opened the refrigerator, she accidentally hit her head on the refrigerator door until Lara fainted. Alex who saw Lara lying in front of the refrigerator immediately carried Lara to her room on the upper floor. Alex laid Lara in the bed of the room.

"Darling, what's wrong with you?"said Alex.

"Honey...honeyang...wake up...wake up........." said Alex.

Lara opened her eyes and saw Alex in front of her.

"Who are you, where am I?"ask Lara.

"I love your husband" Alex said.

"No, my husband Gibran" Lara said.

"Did he recall his memories" Alex's inner self.

"Dear I'm your husband" Alex said as he stiffened Lara's arms.

"No, let go of me, I have to go home" Lara said.

"No dear, your house is here" Alex said.

"Don't let go of me" said Lara trying to take Alex's hand off her.

"Mama.." said Mahira who had just entered the room.

"Mahira.." said Lara.

Mahira came straight to Lara.

"Mama why?"ask Mahira.

"Why do you think you're here, where's Papa?" ask Lara.

"It's Papa, Ma" Mahira said pointing to Alex as his Papa.

"Don't love, he's a stranger" Lara said.

"My dear Alex" Alex said.

"No, Alex is dead, besides your face doesn't look like Alex, you must be lying" Lara said.

"It's a shame something happened to me that I had to have plastic surgery" Alex said.

"No, no way, Alex is dead" Lara said.

"I can prove that I'm Alex" Alex said.

"No..impossible" Lara said.

"Dear baby, Papa wants to talk to Mama first" Alex said.

"Yes Pa, Mahira wants to play the doll first" said Mahira.

Mahira comes out of the room, and Alex talks to Lara.

"I married you in revenge for the death of all my family members, I took you to Mr. Pedro's bed, I made your life suffer all this time with various tortures from me, I'm sorry Lara" Alex said.

"You..you really are Alex..hik.

"Dear, please forgive me, I'll fix everything please stay with me, let me make up for all my mistakes" Alex said.

"No, Gibran is waiting for me, he must be worried about me" Alex said.

Lara takes Alex's hand off and gets out of that bed. He walked towards the door of the room, but Alex held him back.

"Lara please give me a chance to fix it, I'm still your legal husband" Alex said.

"No, my husband is just Gibran" Lara said.

"Honey, you're pregnant with my son now, please don't leave me again. We're going to raise Mahira and the baby you now have together" Alex said.

"Am I pregnant with your child again?"ask Lara.

"Yes, you're two months pregnant baby" Alex said.

"No....hik..hik....why? why do you keep putting my life in your arms, are you not satisfied that you've been torturing me all this time?" ask Lara.

"Darling I don't want to hurt you, I want to make amends for all my past mistakes, please" Alex said.

"Alex, to me you're dead and just a memory. Let me be happy with Gibran" said Lara.

"Darling, I love you, seven years I made amends. Please let me also make amends for you" Alex said.

"No need, get away from my life it has already made up for all your mistakes to me" Lara said.

"Dear forgive me" Alex said.

".............."Alex was silent about all his mistakes in the past.

Lara exited the room and headed to where Mahira was playing in the upstairs playroom.

"Mahira let's go with Mama" Lara said.

"Where is Ma?"ask Mahira.

Lara did not explain, directly pulling Mahira's arm down to the bottom floor.

"Ma, where are we going?"ask Mahira.

"You're home" Lara said.

"Going home? this is not Papa's house" Mahira said.

"He's your father, but we have to go home to Papa Gibran" Lara said.

"Then Papa how's Ma?"ask Mahira.

"Let it go, we have to go home to Papa Gibran's house" Lara said.

Lara pulls Mahira's arm out of the mansion. Alex chases Lara while talking to her.

"Dear let me take you, don't be tired and stressed you're pregnant" Alex said.

"No need" Lara said.

"Mama Papa is right, we're in Papa's car" Mahira said.

"I won't force you to be with me, as long as I let you drive you, baby" Alex said.

Lara stops her steps and talks to Alex.

"Alright, take me to Gibran's house" Lara said.

"Good baby" Alex said.

Alex takes Lara and Mahira to Gibran's house. But the house was deserted, security told Gibran the family was in the Mustika Building having a Wedding Party. Alex and Lara head to the Mustika Building. Until the building, Lara immediately ran into the building, while Alex carried her little princess Mahira. Lara ran, she hoped the marriage had not taken place. But by the time he got into the room, Gibran was already at the side with Siva. The wedding has been going on since this morning. Gibran has officially become Siva's husband. Lara walked over to Gibran on bail.

"Gibran" Lara said.

"Lara darling" Gibran said.

"You're married" Lara said.

"I.." said Gibran.

"Om, who is this brother?"ask Siva.

"I'm his wife" Lara said.

"What?..."said Siva.

Siva was silent at Lara's words, he could not believe Gibran still had a wife.

"Honey.." Gibran said he wanted to hug Lara but immediately arrested Lara.

"Congratulations, may you be happy" Lara said as she shed her tears.

"Darling, I.." Gibran said confusedly.

"I'm happy, I'm sorry hik.hik.." said Lara then turned around to leave Gibran.

"Darling wait.." said Gibran after Lara.

"Maybe I should let Om solve his problem, it's all my fault" Siva said.

Siva just kept silent at the heartwarming sight.

"Honey..wait" Gibran said pulling Lara's arm.

Lara and Gibran stared at each other.

"Forgot me, I don't blame you for any of this" Lara said.

"Darling, I. I've never forgotten you, I'm still the same as I used to be, I always love you" Gibran said.

"I love you too, but now we can't be together anymore. Happy, dear, I'm sincere" said Lara.

Lara leaves Gibran. Even though her heart was hurt, Lara did not want to make the woman who was with Gibran would be hurt.

"Darling.." Gibran shouted.

Lara continued to walk out of the reception room regardless of Gibran's call. He knows Gibran is no longer his. Destiny changed everything. Only the sweet memories left with Gibran will always be remembered.
