The Wife Who Escaped
Reiterating

The one that filled the pure white paper was Kirana's face. It was a clear and identical image, like looking at a photo.

Kirana could see that every strand of hair had been carefully pulled. Kirana who was moved opened her mouth wide.

“Yes God.. He may not have time, but when did he prepare such a gift...........

Reynand said a word in a blunt tone.

“I think so, He did not prepare it as a gift, but he had long drawn it. ."

“It's been a while? Why?"

Kirana tilted her head and looked at Reynand. Reynand narrowed her eyes when she saw that.

“You really don't know?”

"?"

Kirana seemed to understand nothing.

Just then, as a fellow man, I started to feel a little sorry for Mark. And on the other hand, I think I'm lucky because Kirana is insensitive to the relationship between a man and a woman like me.

"NO. You better not know.”

"Whatchu mean? What do you mean I better not know?”

"It's nothing. What do you want to eat for lunch? Due to time constraints, I think we should eat near here or at the airport."

Reynand changed the topic so she could no longer think about Mark.

“I don't want to be late, so I'll eat at the airport.”

“Good.. If that's what you want”

Kirana looked at the painting given by Mark once more, then carefully folded it and put it in her bag. And he looked out the car window.

A historic site containing antique houses and historical traces. A familiar sight flashed before his eyes.

This was the first time I had set foot in a foreign land, and it was a place where I met good people and had good memories.

It was a place where I had new dreams, and at one point, it was a place where I thought I could spend the rest of my life.

As I was about to leave the place that held so many memories, my heart sank and I was already feeling nostalgic.

"I feel sad to have to leave. When can I come back?"

As Kirana spoke while looking out the window, Reynand replied.

“The plane is many, you can come whenever you want."

"....."

"Come again. Come with me."

A big hand grabbed Kirana's hand. Kirana felt the warm energy felt from the touch of a hand.

And he nodded.

As she looked out the window again, the neighborhood Kirana lived in had disappeared from sight.

It was a place where there were many happy moments. I may miss this place, but I don't regret leaving it.

As Reynand said, there is no guarantee that his future life will be unconditionally happy. There will definitely be difficulties, and there may be times of frustration.

Still, it's okay. Because Reynand is by my side now. Because there's someone who won't let go of my hand in any situation. With that fact alone, I have nothing to fear and can look to the future.

Kirana gently cupped Reynand's hand that overlapped her hand, and looked down from outside the window.

****

By late afternoon, a black car stopped in a residential area.

Reynand and Kiran got out of the back seat of the car one by one.

Kirana looked at the mansion in front of her. A large house with a size similar to a magnificent palace and ancient nuances.

It was a big house that made you feel intimidated just by looking at it.

The two came here soon after arriving in Indonesia.

The mansion in front of them was Reynand's house and also where the Chairman and Ameera were waiting for them.

I haven't been in contact with them since I left home without saying a word.

At that time, I thought they were people I would never meet again. Also, before I left, I told Mama that I wanted a divorce, and since I did it willingly, I thought they must be happy because I left.

None of them regretted that I left. Instead, they are the ones who are unwilling to accept my existence.

Now, Kirana has to confront those people and tell them that she will be staying with Reynand again.

Kirana looked at the house and swallowed dry saliva.

Although I came with preparations, I was nervous when I got to the front of the house.

Reynand who noticed Kirana's tension, said.

“You can stay here if you don't want to. I'll tell them myself.”

In fact, Reynand said there was no need to go straight to them, and even if he did, he would meet them alone and solve the problem.

However, Kirana insisted on meeting with Ameera and the Chairman as soon as she left for Indonesia.

“No, I have to meet you in person and greet them.” Said Kirana with a strong tone.

"I'm the one who disappeared without a word, and I'm the one who decided to stay with you again. Even if I apologize, I think I should do it myself, and I should personally say what I plan to do from now on."

"...."

Kirana held back her trembling and faced the mansion with powerful eyes.

This is something I have been fully prepared for ever since I decided to be with Reynand again.

I think this is a step that must be completed to get a fresh start with Reynand.

Of course, I will not bow my head as before.I will not hide behind Reynand and wait for everything to resolve by itself.

In order to live a different life than before, Reynand must change, I must change too.

Kirana with determined eyes, entered the gate.

***

Kirana and Reynand head to the living room together. The chairman and Ameera with a dark expression were sitting on the living room sofa.

When the two men arrived, all the housekeepers left as if they had known, and only four people were left in the living room.

Kirana, Reynand, Chairman, and Ameera. The first person to speak in silence was Reynand.

"We're back."

Reynand lowered her head towards them and said.

“I'm sorry for making you worried.”

Ameera must have been very upset when Reynand left, so her face was half-faced. She bit her lips gently to hold back her cries, and her eyes glazed over.

“I thought you worked there, but you're finally back.” Speak to the Chairman while maintaining a serious posture.

"alright. Tell me what you think of what to do next."

Reynand faced him with a straight posture and opened her mouth.

"First of all, if you give me permission to work at the company, I will get back on track and do my best at my job. Don't worry, all the piled up work will be completed as soon as possible."

"....."

“And my wife and I will live well again.”

Ameera's eyes sparkled at those words. The Chairman's expression did not change, but the atmosphere became heavier.

However, Reynand did not give up and continued speaking firmly.

"The reason for Kirana's departure was mostly because of my mistake. I couldn't understand Kirana's pain, I left her alone, and I ignored her."

"......"

“Of course, this is not my fault alone. Mama and the Chairman are also very hard on her."

Kirana is my wife, not the one who was just presented to bear children. If she harasses people by asking for children every day, she may not be able to have children in the future.

"You don't even treat him like a human. It's amazing because Kirana didn't escape earlier."

Reynand spoke in a deeper voice.

“From now on, please do not treat Kirana harshly and respect her as a member of the family.”

Although my family has not changed, I am ready to end my relationship with them.

“Kirana is my wife and the person I love. Throwing Kirana is the same as throwing me away.”

The Chairman's gray eyebrows twitched hearing those words. He narrowed his eyes and asked.

“Does that mean you will continue with him even if you are removed from the company?”

"Yes. I am not afraid of being kicked out of the company.”

Ameera could not bear Reynand's confident words and jumped.

"Reynand! You are really.... Why are you doing this!"

He shed tears and grabbed Reynand's arm.

“Yes Lord... To what extent you will disappoint your Mama like this!”

Ameera, who had been screaming in a voice full of screams, turned to Kirana this time. He looked at Kirana with annoyed eyes.

“Kirana, if you have a conscience, you should not return!”

"....."

“Do you think this is a place where you can go and come back as you please?!”

Ameera raised her eyebrows and shouted loudly.

"Swithered back here to grab someone's ankle! Did you come here because you wanted to see Reynand destroyed?!"

Reynand who saw that, hugged Kirana's shoulder.

“If viewed, I think it doesn't make sense.”

"....."

"This is not going to work. Come on home." Come on."

That was when he grabbed Kirana by the shoulder and was about to turn towards the front door.

Kirana lowered her hand from her shoulder. Then he then took a step forward and lowered his head towards Ameera and the Chairman.

"Sorry."

Kirana lowered her head to apologize and continued to speak seriously.

“I'm sorry for disappearing without saying goodbye. I also apologize for the inconvenience caused by me.”

"......"

"At that time, I thought it was the right thing to do. I think that's the only way for me and Reynand to avoid unhappiness."

The chairman nodded his head hearing his words and replied solemnly.

“It looks like you know very well.”

In an instant, he looked at Kirana with sharp eyes.

"Why did you come back?"

Kirana took a moment to catch her breath as she faced the eyes that seemed to see everything within her.

"that's......."

After taking a deep breath, Kirana again raised her head and faced the two people directly.

“Reynand says he can't do anything without me.”

The Head and Ameera's eyebrows frowned simultaneously. Kirana continued to speak confidently without hesitation.

"I kept pushing him away, but Reynand said if I didn't come back, he wouldn't need his family or his company. He's very stubborn, so I can't stand to see him."
