My husband is mentally ill
*Episode 36

Jesi was very hurt. But, he did not want to admit what he felt in front of Jona just now. Because he did not want to burden Jona's mind that was in this healing process.

Jesi directly touched the soft hand of Jona who is now on one hand. He again made a sweet smile. This time, the smile was wider than the one before.

"You think I'm that weak, Jo? No really. I'm not weak. I won't be hurt just because of someone else's words. Plus, that remark came from the person I considered to be my own mama. So, it won't have any effect on me. Besides, I'm used to this kind of thing. So, I'm immune, Jonathan."

However, the remark did not directly make Jona believe. Before, he was a cold man who did not really understand the feelings of others. But, after experiencing mental pain, he so has a subtle feeling that is quite sensitive to the feelings of someone around him.

He gently looked at Jesi's face with a feeling. "Don't lie to me, Je. I'm not a kid you can lie to. And, one thing you should know. Now, I'm not mentally ill like yesterday anymore. So, I understand how you feel, Jesika."

Jesi was moved by that speech. He wanted to feel like he was pouring into Jona's arms. Let go of all the pain that was lodged in his heart at this moment.

But baby, he can't do that. Can't show his weakness to Jona. Because Jesi wants to, Jona fully recovers.

"When did I lie to you, Jo? I really don't papa. Okay, don't worry about me. Most importantly, it's all over" said Jesi, insisting she was okay with saying a sweet smile to Jona.

That speech instantly made Jona grunt quietly. Then, without any cue first, he immediately threw his head into Jesi's lap.

Something that immediately made Jesika shocked was not a bitch. To the extent that, he could not say anything other than gawking because his heart suddenly beat unbecause of the actions of Jona just now.

"J-j Jo. You .... "

"Let me ride on your lap, Je. Just think of this as a punishment for you for not wanting to open up to me."

Jona said casually as if there was nothing wrong with what she was doing. In fact, Jesi is like a person who is suffering from heart disease due to his actions now.

"A-- I .... "

"Do you mind, Je?" Jona spoke again when Jesi was still talking with a voice of excitement because of nervousness.

As much as possible, Jesi tried to hide what she was feeling right now. He would most of his face in the other direction so that their gazes would not clash.

"If you mind, I won't lie on your lap again" Jona said guiltily.

Of course Jesi spoke quickly.

"No. No papa. Ah, I mean, I .. certainly don't mind."

A quick speech that sounded very rushed made Jona immediately smile. From the beginning, he knew that Jesi was nervous. It was clearly visible from the look on Jesi's face that suddenly blushed as she lay on Jesi's lap for the first time.

Meanwhile, Jesi instantly threw away her face quickly when she saw Jona smile. He wanted to rebel because he was upset by Jona. But his heart did not want to do that. His heart wanted Jona to stay in the lap, if possible at all times.

'If this is the punishment you've given me for not wanting to open up to you, then I'd rather accept the punishment than say what I feel, Jo. Because this ... is the special thing that I always dreamed of, ' said Jesi inwardly while holding my heart back from smiling.

Happiness is simple actually. Can get what we want. But baby, sometimes, what we want, not necessarily we can get easily.

A moment of silence, Jona finally spoke up.

"Je, do you want a new home? If so, I can give it to you."

Reaching out, the remark immediately made Jesi look in shock at Jona.

"New house? What do you mean?"

"Yes .. new home. I can buy you a house that will be our home alone. Away from mama, also from the person who intends to disturb our tranquility."

The words made Jesi fixated. There are two feelings that now control his heart. First, a very happy feeling about Jona's invitation just now. But, there was another feeling that immediately made him feel sad. That is, the agreement between him and Mama Jona who inevitably had to be kept.
