True Love to Death
Chapter 9 Feeling awkward

In her room, Lica tells Rafael about her past life that no one ever knew.

"I want to tell you about my past which is about my family that before her no one ever knew everyone only knew that I was an orphan but no one knew about my life before I was in an orphanage, my mother died of asthma, when I was 10 years old, I only lived with my father, who beat me every day and gave me no food, but I have good neighbors who take turns each day to give food to me, my neighbor was eager to see my father's treatment that every day only hurt me physically and mentally until one day my father did not come home and after 3 days a neighbor came later saying that my father had died because he was a victim of hit-and-run and had been in the grave and then the neighbors drove me to an orphanage and I was raised in an orphanage until I was 25 years old I worked at the Monalisa restaurant and then I decided to stay at a boarding house near my workplace and died in an orphanage but I still bear a lot of responsibility for my sister and I also worked to finance my sister even several times I refused marriage for the sake of my sister's life and future, I hope my sister can have a good life and also be a successful person, it is true when being Erlin's lover, I also spend a lot of money, he said, but Erlin's money is not all I'm depleted, but rather some I give to my sister" finished telling me Lica crying in Rafael's arms, Rafael kissed his wife's forehead while saying.

"Don't worry dear because everything will be fine and I promise I will always look after you even after I die" said Rafael who seduced his wife and hoped his wife's worries diminished.

Into his morning as usual Lica did her homework and Erlin passed in front of her, Rica greeted her.

"Good morning brother-in-law"

But Erlin just passed by nonchalantly and did not reply to Lica's reprimand, even glancing was not, but Lica just resigned herself and did not enter into the heart with the attitude of her sister-in-law then continued her work.

Even though Erlin was never good to Lica but Lica always served all the needs of Erlin preparing everyone's breakfast, cooking food for everyone and washing everyone's clothes even also devoted her sincerely to the Romanov family like a maid, never once did he complain because what was important to him was only Rafael who was always there to cheer him up and if Lica was sad Rafael asked Lica to finish the job in her office not finished and then take Rafael home.

8 months later on a day when Erlin wants breakfast and she goes to the kitchen then from outside Erlin hears Rafael and Lica's conversation so she cancels her intention to go into the kitchen but eavesdroppers talks of Lica and Rafael.

"Darling tonight is your birthday night and I'd like to take you to a restaurant for dinner, I've booked a romantic place for us and I want tonight to be the best night for you, I want you to be happy tonight" Rafael said affectionately to his wife.

With a happy smile, Lica answered.

" really? thank you, my dear friend."(misua is the meaning of her husband is a friendly call version of Lica to Rafael).

While Lica hugged and kissed her husband with a very happy face, Rafael said again.

"We're going to eat at the restaurant where you worked first at the Monalisa restaurant" Lica nodded then asked.

"What time are we leaving for my misua" Lica asked Rafael with a very happy face.

"Jam 19:00 pm I'll pick you up dear" replied her husband.

"Is that the sound of sister-in-law's car? is there a sudden job so sister-in-law goes without breakfast?" leica asked her husband and her husband shook his head.

"Know I don't exist" said Rafael cuek, then Lica said.

"It's a shame I'll make breakfast for brother-in-law and you'll take it to him later" Rafael nodded.

After breakfast he kissed his wife's forehead then went to the office with his sister's stock box and after arriving at the office he went to Erlin's room and immediately put the stock box on top erlin's desk then left Erlin's room.

After Rafael, the, Erlin also continued to think how his way in order to thwart the plans of his sister and also his sister-in-law because in Erlin's heart was not willing if the woman who had hurt her heart, she was already hurting her, happy living.

After much thought, Erlin found a way to get Rafael home late and he was happy with a nasty smile on his face and until 17:00 Wita is the time to go home and Rafael is also preparing to go home, but Erlin comes with a lot of files that he carries and puts them on Rafael's table with a wicked smile on his lips, confused Rafael saw the pile of files.

"What is this file?" rafael asked in surprise.

"Additional work for you" said Erlin, then walked to leave Rafael's room and Rafael said.

"Sister I'll be done tomorrow" asked Rafael, then Erlin turned her body towards Rafael and cuefully said.

"Don't delay tomorrow, I need it tomorrow and it should be finished tomorrow morning at my table" Erlin replied firmly.

"But tonight is Lica's birthday and I promise to go out to dinner with her" Rafael pleaded, but Erlin yelled at her.

"Am I asking?" erlin replied with a louder tone of voice and enough to silence her sister's mouth.

Then Erlin came out of Rafael's room with a satisfied smile on her lips.
