Forced Marriage

JOAN POV

I started to wipe the sweat that had soaked my face using the tissue that Liza brought.

This morning we took a leisurely stroll along the beach while doing some stretches to loosen up the stiff muscles of the body.

We’ve been hiding for a week, no one can find us because I’ve deactivated my cell phone as well as Liza’s so they can’t track our location via cellphone. Our existence here will remain safe as long as Yuna doesn’t tell papa and mama about this house.

” There is a mango tree , ” Liza pointed towards a towering mango tree .

I raised one eyebrow “Yes, I also know honey if it’s a mango tree, what’s wrong?”

“I want it, please take it” Liza plays with her puppy eyes.

I looked at the very tall and big mango tree. To be honest, in my life I have never climbed a tree just to steal a mango belonging to a resident.

“Li, let’s just buy them, besides the mangoes are still young,” I said, which immediately made Liza purse her lips.

” Well it ‘s up to you ” Liza replied annoyed , she quickly turned away leaving me .

I ran quickly to him , I was afraid if he really felt annoyed with my attitude .

“Okay, I’ll take it dear” I held my wife’s hand and brought her back to where the mango tree grows and grows.

“Thanks by” Liza said cheerfully, her smile growing again on her beautiful face.

I quickly climbed the very tall mango tree, even though it was a bit difficult because I wasn’t used to it, but for Liza’s sake I was determined to do something that could cause me to have a heart attack or die from falling from a height.

I breathed a sigh of relief as soon as I managed to pluck a fairly large mango from the tree, I quickly climbed down from the tree and immediately expressed my gratitude for having been given the opportunity to live by the creator.

” Wow you are great by ” Liza pointed her thumb at me .

“Here” I gave a mango that was still unripe to my wife. Liza quickly took the mango from my hand.

“Li, it’s not recorded in history, if Joan Arkan Rivenno, a child of a conglomerate, steals mangoes belonging to residents,” I explained, only to be grinned in return by Liza.

“Yes, thank you Sis Joan dear”

Cups …

My heart seems out of place when I get a sudden kiss on the cheek from Liza.

My face felt hot, I’m very sure that at this time my face was red due to my wife’s behavior.

I immediately ran away to cover my embarrassment. I can hear Liza’s voice laughing at me from behind.

Liza started walking behind me, when we got home we immediately met Bi Mimin who was busy serving food in the living room.

” Hey you guys have come , I thought the tea would still take a long time to go ” Greeted Bi Mimin who was keeping boboko filled with fried rice on the table .

I embraced Liza’s body when she started helping Bi Mimin prepare the food menu at the table.

” Don’t be too tired Li , remember your womb ! ” I whispered .

“Yes, follow the words of Eneng’s husband, Eneng’s womb is still vulnerable,” said Bi Mimin.

” Yes , in a moment , ” Liza said , the woman started to throw my hand and went to the kitchen to get something .

I can only exhale exasperated see his stubborn attitude . Likewise with Bi Mimin who could only shake her head.

” It’s really hard for Aa’s wife to tell him, Aa has to pay a lot of attention to Eneng, especially if the womb is already big, just tell him to rest in his room A! ” Bi Mimin grumbled reminding me.

We immediately ate breakfast after the food was served very neatly at the table.

” Bi Mimin ‘s fried rice is really delicious ” Praised Liza while giving her thumbs up towards Bi Mimin who was sitting across from her .

” Ah , it ‘s normal ma’am , Eneng ‘s cooking is delicious , ” rebutted Bi Mimin , which immediately made me laugh .

” What the hell Bi , Liza ‘s cooking actually tastes very bland , because at home she rarely cooks ” I teased which made Liza look embarrassed .

” Really A , Eneng ‘s cooking is delicious , the vegetable soup made by Eneng a week ago tastes really good ” Bi Mimin defended .

” Who said it was made by me , it was Sis Joan who made the seasoning so it was delicious ” Liza explained , it is true that the vegetables in the soup were indeed prepared by her but I put in the seasonings .

” Ealah aunt I think Eneng , it turns out Si Aa , it turns out that you are smart and you cook A ” The middle – aged woman ruffled my hair excitedly , I have treated Bi Mimin like a second mother to me .

Bi Mimin lives alone here, her child and husband died in an accident which made her very lonely and moved from the city and lived her life alone in a quiet beachside house.

Liza laughed after seeing my messy hair caused by Bi Mimin .

“Your hair looks like jamet By” Liza teased.

I smoothed my hair “Where is there jamet who is as handsome as me dear?” I posed so handsome in front of my wife that made Liza spit out the air. Bi Mimin did the same thing.

” Si Aa mah is so handsome, isn’t it neng ” Bi Mimin replied to which Liza nods in return.

” Well , I have been handsome since birth , what can I do , even though my face was beaten black and blue I am still handsome , ” I showed Bi Mimin the wounds from daddy punching her .

Bi Mimin stretched out her hand to touch my face which was still sore because the wound had not yet dried.

“I’m really sorry for you A, has the wound been treated yet?

“It’s okay bi, last night I rubbed it with ointment” Liza replied ahead of me.

“Okay, if that’s the case, okay, let’s continue eating, the rice will get cold later,” said Bi Mimin.

We also quickly finished our breakfast program with wisdom and calm, without speaking a word.

As soon as we finished with the activity, I started helping Bi Mimin put the dirty dishes in the kitchen to wash them. Liza immediately rushed into the kitchen to take over Bi Mimin’s job of washing the dishes.

” Auntie water the plants first, okay?” Bi Mimin said goodbye, the simple-looking woman started to walk away from the kitchen towards the front of the house to water the plants that she had not watered for a long time.

After staring at Bi Mimin’s back which was slowly disappearing from my sight, I turned my attention back to Liza who was busy washing the dirty dishes in the kitchen sink.

“Do you want me to help you honey?” I said after being beside him.

” You don’t have to By , you can help me get the mangoes that I put on the living room table earlier , right ? ” Liza exclaimed in a very polite tone .

” Of course honey ” I replied , I immediately stepped into the living room .

Tap… Tap…

Someone stepped into the living room, the sound of the steps did not come from me but someone else who had just barged into this house.

“Dafa, Yuna”

I gasped in surprise, the mango that was in my hand reflexively I dropped it to the floor which made a sound due to the collision between the mango and the floor of this house.

The tall man began to approach me followed by a slender woman beside him.

” Uncle Ansel is very angry with you and Liza , how long are you going to hide and run away from trouble , Joan ? ” Dafa snapped when he positioned his body straight in front of me .

” I do not care ” I replied casually , I pushed Dafa ‘s body away from me .

“Yuna, why did you tell me about the existence of this house?”

I glared at Yuna, that woman had promised not to reveal this secret to anyone, but what she was doing right now was the opposite.

” I’m sorry Ar , I’m afraid that Uncle Ansel can’t forgive you , so you better appear now in front of them before they get really mad at you and also your wife ” Yuna said softly .

I was stunned while wiping my face in exasperation, in this state I couldn’t run away because I had made sure that Yuna’s minions followed Yuna’s and Dafa’s movements.

“Aarrghhh” My scream echoed throughout the room.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

I didn’t realize that my scream actually made Liza run to the living room to witness what commotion was going on here.

“W-why are you here?” Liza jumped in surprise when she saw the presence of two people who were with me in this room .

I started running over to Liza and immediately pulled her body into my arms, I started whispering something in Liza’s ear “I’ll go with them to meet daddy, but I won’t take you dear”

“No, I’ll come with you and face your father directly” Liza argued, the woman let go of our hug roughly.

I held Liza’s cheeks “Please, do as I say, I’m sure papa will judge you and do something to you, think carefully about our two babies!” I said firmly.

Liza started crying sobbing “But I can’t let you get beat up alone, at least take me with you, we’ll get through this problem together I don’t want you to carry this burden alone”

“Don’t worry, I’m used to dealing with daddy, the most important thing for me is to make sure you three are safe, so please meet Dilan and stay at his apartment for a few days, I’ll pick you up after things get better!” that, but what power of fate made me have to say this. At least Dilan’s place is the safest place that daddy can’t go to, Dilan is also a pretty good man and really respects women.
