TMS EPS 24: ERIKA'S WISHES

Me?

What's wrong with me?

"Erika. He'll recover slowly."

"Then? why doesn't it look happy. Isn't this good news?" saut Syma's.

"I am happy. But. for some reason there is also anger in my heart.

I have to admit, I can't let you go. I thought I just wanted your body Syma.

But it turns out I was wrong.

I'm too stupid to understand what this feeling is. But obviously, I don't want to be separated from you" Ersad said, looking at Syma with earnestness.

Syma herself was in her place. "Wouldn't this have been our agreement from the beginning. If Erika realizes, you'll divorce me?"

"I knew. But the truth is very difficult for me to keep it. There is a place for you in my heart."

"But still, Mas. Erika is a woman. He will not accept my presence. At least think from his point of view.

He would be disappointed if he knew everything.

I don't want to take people's husbands. I also don't want to be a destroyer of people's households." Syma said while holding tight in her chest. In reality, it was not only Ersad who was hurt by their separation, but also Syma.

"Why do you say it like you're happy to get away from me, Syma? I think you feel the same way too, after what we've been through all this time" Ersad said looking at him in disbelief.

Syma turned flat. It was obvious that he was suppressing his feelings.

"My attitude all this time was just a form of my devotion to you. Because Mas is my husband. I must obey you. "he said it still looks flat. Ersad was disappointed to hear that.

"Is that so...." Ersad stepped closer towards him with a meaningful look. Then stop when their distance is only about five inches. Their gazes were forced to be adrift, because Ersad deliberately made Syma not switch anywhere.

"You think I'm a kid who can be lied to just for a word, Syma? I see clearly that you like me. You love me, Syma!"

Syma was full of hearing it. "But Erika loves you too. Think about it Mas. She's your legal wife legally and religiously. I could have accepted her presence, but not her. It's enough to hurt him with my presence."

"No.

I'll tell Erika that I love you too. I'm not gonna let you go Syma, never will. I lost the person I loved so much, traumatized me and didn't want the nightmare to come back. Whatever your reasons, don't expect to get away from me.

Even if Erika does not accept it, then you will remain my mistress secretly" Ersad said firmly.

"You're selfish." shrewd Syma was a little disappointed.

with him. "It's true I like you, Mom. I'd be hurt if I separated from you. But I'd be hurt even more if I was happy with you over other women's suffering."

Ersad was silent. For a moment, the man closed his eyes. And breathe out its heavy breath. A sign of unease enveloped his mind. Then just leave, without saying a word.

Syma just stared at her husband's departure with tears that could not be contained anymore. He sobbed in silence.

*****

"Where is the woman named Syma?" erika asked with her tone still weak. Ersad himself was surprised to hear that.

Ersad's departure from his apartment was apparently to meet Erika. Especially when the doctor explained that his wife was awake. Ersad was in a hurry to visit him even though the night was almost late.

"Where do you know about it?" ersad asked so confused.

"Erika, i...."

"I want to meet him, Mom. Bring him here tomorrow morning."

Ersad had no idea what would happen later, yet he still nodded, sign agreeing with Erika's wishes.

Meanwhile....

Someone was staring at them from the doorway so sharply. His eyes flashed with anger when he accidentally heard Erika mention Syma's name. Nora, who had just wanted to meet Erika, immediately stopped her steps and listened carefully to the two people's conversation.

Erika's eyes unintentionally caught Nora's figure standing stiff there. Erika greeted him with a faint smile. While Ersad went home because Nora was there.

A warm kiss on the forehead Ersad gave before getting out of there.

When Ersad was gone. Then Nora approached and demanded an answer.

"Don't you know about that woman?"

Erika nodded in response.

"Calm down, brother, we will avenge that woman after Brother gets out of here. He will feel the consequences of having disturbed Sister-in-law" Nora said with apparent resentment. But beyond her expectations, Erika just shook her head weakly and smiled at him.

"I want to meet him, not to demand revenge."

"Then? what's for?"

"I want Syma to remain his wife, Ersad. They don't need a divorce,"

That made Nora widen her eyes. "What the fuck is this big brother ! don't be silly. How could Big Brother accept a woman who has ruined Big Brother's happiness just like that.

Don't be stupid!"

"This is my life Nora. Stop meddling ! I already know everything. I even heard, when the Doctor said that my recovery would not last long. I won't be around much longer either.

Mas Ersad must have been devastated by my departure. And when I die, I want Syma to be present as my husband's entertainer. I'm pretty sure, that Syma's a good woman. She can definitely take care of my husband more than me" Erika said, holding back her tears.

Nora grew increasingly tense hearing it. 'So... Erika already knows everything. Shit ! I think with the departure of Brother Erika, I will be the one who will be the cure of Mas Ersad's heart. Not that woman ! I'm not gonna let that happen. I have to find a way.' Inner Nora.

"What do you think Nora? don't act stupid. And remember my message to stop meddling in Mas Ersad's affairs. He is being nice to you, it is because your brother is his wife" said Erika who understands well with this sister. Erika also knows that Nora has an exaggerated nature of obsession. She was afraid that Nora would do something reckless, if her thinking was right that Nora liked her husband.

"Better brother break. Doesn't tomorrow want to see the woman" Nora said as she enveloped Erika's body.

Nora looked at her sister until she fell asleep. While he stays there. Thinking of ways to keep everything from happening.

'If Erika's sister dies. Then the woman will win. He'll have the full Mas Ersad.

No. gabe.

I'm not gonna let that happen.' Nora shook her head like a stressed person, when she imagined Syma had managed to get Ersad.

'Forgive me Brother. It seems that I have no other way.' Nora muttered as she looked at Erika meaningfully.
