The Wife Who Escaped
Determinedly

“I want divorce.”

Reynand's eyes trembled violently at Kirana's words. Divorce is something unexpected. I expect others to talk about divorce. But I never thought these words would come out of Kirana's mouth first.

Reynand tried to suppress her embarrassment and spoke calmly.

"I know you're very surprised because of your mother. Rest and we'll talk later."

His current performance is not in perfect condition. So, he said this.

Reynand thought so and spoke with a calming tone.

“You're crazy now.”

“No. I finally realized.”

Kirana opened her mouth, immediately responding to Reynand's words.

“I've been living without sanity all this time.”

"......"

“I wish only mothers wake up, and I only need to have children.”.

"......"

“I left myself and live.”

The bitterness reflected in the eyes filled with regret.

“I live the wrong way. There is no life for me in my life, only for others."

Kirana spoke in a strong voice.

“I won't be that stupid anymore.”

"......"

“There is no reason to do that again.”

Straight eyes stared at Reynand.

“My mind is round.”

"......"

“I don't want to stay in this house anymore.”

During my stay in this house, I never once laughed.

“I don't do it anymore.”

My time as his wife was always lonely and painful. I don't want to repeat that incident again.

“I don't want to live as your wife.”

kirana said to Reynand.

“Let's end here."

****

Kirana opened her eyes in the bedroom. The curtains closed and the room darkened.

I don't know if it's still dawn, morning has come, or it's past lunchtime.

Kirana got up from the bed, then came closer to the window and opened the curtain. The view outside the window was gray with rain falling all night. It seemed like it was already morning when the sun slowly rose.

Because I remember what happened last night.

"I want a divorce."

Deciding to divorce is not difficult. Ever since Sarah died and she realized that there was no reason for her to stay in this family, her decision was taken quickly.

I no longer want to live my life for others.

'I don't want to be your wife anymore.'

'Let's end it here.'

Reynand seemed more surprised by his words than expected.

It seemed like he never thought I would say something like this. It was as if he had never expected to do something like this.

He shook his head with a slightly surprised expression and spoke firmly.

'I can't finish it like this.'

'Divorce is impossible.'

After that, I explained why we had to divorce, but Reynand couldn't accept it. I don't know why he refused to divorce me. I don't understand why someone who thinks profit and practicality is better than someone else doesn't want a divorce.

Grateful to yourself is not enough. By telling her what she wanted to say one day, I freed her from her guilt and burden.

Although it now looks like that, it will eventually turn around. Since he was an intelligent person, he would soon realize the reality.

Divorce is an established process and it is only a matter of time. But Kirana didn't want to stay here even for a day. Kirana put on a cardigan and came out of the bedroom.

As usual, the quiet scenery inside the house caught his attention. Among them, the only one who is busy is the housekeeper. The housekeeper walked towards Kirana down the stairs.he handed her a letter.

"The lady is awake."

“Halo, Aunty.”

Kirana also greeted him and headed to the kitchen. The housekeeper followed him and said.

"Does the Madam need anything?"

"It's okay. I'll take care of it."

Kirana took out a bottle of cold water from the fridge to quench her thirst. The housekeeper, who was watching Kirana pour water into a cup and drink it, said.

"Mrs. How should you eat?”

“I have no appetite at this time.”

"You still haven't eaten yesterday. Even though Madam has no appetite, try at least a little."

The housekeeper said with a worried face.

“I met the Director on the way to work, and instructed me to make sure you got enough food.”

"......"

"I don't want to eat now. I'll eat later."

Kirana threw her face away as if she did not want to talk anymore. And he opened the fridge to put in a water bottle.

At that moment, something caught Kirana's attention. What Kirana encountered was a bag of herbal medicine filled at the bottom of the fridge. Kirana looked at it for a moment and then took out her entire box. And go straight to the veranda.

Without hesitation, he threw the box containing the herbal medicine into the trash. Not a single bag of herbal medicine was left behind. It went into the trash. The housekeeper who saw this was shocked and said.

"God... Madame..That's......!"

"Please remove all the leftover herbal medicine."

"Yes Madam..."

Kirana said firmly.

"I don't need it anymore, so please throw it all away."

There is no need to take this terrible herbal remedy and no need to come to an oriental medicine clinic that has no effect.

Kirana lowered the discarded herbal medicine bag into the trash and headed for the room.

Kirana immediately entered the room and called out to someone, after a few beeps, another person's voice sounded.

[Hello]

" It's me..."

Kirana with strong eyes spoke to someone.

" There's something I want to talk to you about."

****

In Reynand's office.

Reynand could not concentrate on her work all day. Even during the meeting, he did not remember at all the content of the presentation, could not even read the contents of the document he should have seen. Although there is a lot of work to be done after a business trip, the pace of work is stalled.

Last night, when Kirana said something unexpected, Reynand's mind blurred.

'I want a divorce.'

Kirana's expression became firm as she said the word divorce.

Did Kirana really want a divorce from me?

'I no longer want to be your wife.'

Does she not want to be my wife again?

Reynand slowly shook her head

NO. NOPE. There was no way he would change his mind suddenly like this. It was obvious that she was desperate because of the shock of losing her mother. Or, while I was on a business trip, Mama or someone else might force Kirana to divorce me.

I have come to that conclusion dozens of times after thinking for a long time. But in the end, the anxiety that Kirana would actually leave me began to develop, and my thoughts became complicated again.

Reynand was like this all day, unable to give an answer to her appearance, and unable to concentrate on her work as she racked her brain. At that moment, the office door opened with a knock. The one who opened the door and entered was Julia.he brought some documents. He said as he placed the file in front of Reynand.

“This is the document you requested this morning.”

"Thank you"

"And there's an evening meeting scheduled for 19:00 today it will take about 40 to 50 minutes to get to the place. I will prepare the car in front of the main gate at 18:00."

Reynand daydreamed for a moment after hearing his words.

Dinner with a construction company representative is scheduled at 7 p.m. If you talk about business, it ends at 8, and if anyone drinks, it ends at 9. It'll be more than that. Then when I get home it can be expected around 10 p.m.

Reynand felt a strange deja vu. Kirana's eyes, which were warm last night, sparkled.

I feel like I should go home as soon as possible today.

Reynand checked the time.it was 5pm less. Reynand stood up and spoke to Julia.

"Let's see if I can delay my dinner. If you can't, tell them I'll be about an hour late."

"Ah... Well sir, I understand."

Julia asked when she saw Reynand wearing a suit.

"Is there a problem, sir?"

“I have to go home.”

Reynand walked out of the office quietly.

****

The car stopped in front of the mansion. Before the driver can open the door, Reynand opens the back seat door and exits.

Reynand walked quickly through the gate and stood in front of the front door of the house. For some reason, an unknown tension enveloped his body. As Reynand opened the door and entered the house, she saw the surprised face of the housekeeper.

“You've come home, Director.”

He looked surprised that Reynand had come home earlier than usual.

Reynand asked the housekeeper while looking around the first floor.

“Where is Kirana?”

“Mrs is on the second floor.”

"Has he eaten?"

When I told her to eat, Madam only ate a little porridge in the afternoon.

“Mrs haven't eaten anything since.”

The housekeeper, who spoke with a sad face, lowered his head to Reynand.

"sorry. I should have taken better care of her."

"NO. Please continue to care as you do now.”

After saying that, Reynand directly went up to the second floor. He went up to the second floor and opened the bedroom door, but I could not see Kirana. It seemed like he wasn't even in the bathroom, so the place he was most likely to be was the room at the end of the second floor. It was a place where show items and favorite books were placed. As he got closer to it, he heard a rustling sound within the room.

After knocking on the door for a while, Reynand opened the door. And he immediately spoke when he saw Kirana in front of him. Kirana was crouching and stuffing her books into a large suitcase. And the suitcase is already full of his stuff. The most prominent is the inner pocket of the sling. It was a passport inside. As Reynand saw that, he felt his head pounding.

"What are you doing now?"
