Hunter immediately straightened up andy down on the bed as if nothing had happened. He left me still sitting on the floor so I looked at him badly then stood up.


    “Why can’t you forget K? Me, I’m making you happy, I’m the one next to you. But why are you still thinking about her?” annoyed I asked him. He just leaned over and didn’t listen to me.


    “Answer me, Hunter.” My voice raised.


    “I want to rest so, shut the fucking up. If you don’t want to keep quiet. Leave this fucking room, so I can fucking rest.” He answered annoyed while clenching his jaw and rearranging to lie down.


    “I just did everything for you, but you can’t even appreciate me.”


    Hunter suddenly got up and immediately faced me.


    “You really don’t want to be quiet, do you?” He stood up and then grabbed me by the shoulder and stood up.


    “What will you do?” I asked when he pulled me.


    “To shut you up. You’re too noisy.” He pulls me closer to the closet then he opens it.


    “Wait, what are you nning?” He looked at me badly then squeezed my face.


    “I’m annoyed by the way you look, Ley. I’m also annoyed by your voice. Get in!” he said and pushed me inside the closet.


    “Hunter!” I shouted then tried not to get inside the closet but he pushed me hard back inside.


    “Stay there.”


    “No, let me go.”


    “I said stay there!” A strong kick hit me in the stomach so I lost my bnce and fell down. He punched me on my legs also. He always really hurts me in the hidden parts of the body, so no one can see the bruise. “You still want to get hurt,” he said then closed the closet door.


    “Hunter!” I shouted then mmed the door. “Get me out of here.” But I didn’t hear any answer from him until I got tired.


    I sat up while hugging the legs. Too dark in here and I feel like darkness is swallowing me. I can’t breathe, I can’t feel my body. It was as if darkness was swallowing my breath. I can’t take it, I wanted to scream, but not even a single voice came out of my mouth.


    I feel my body numb, my eyes wanted to close. But I’m afraid to turn a blind eye because I feel like when I close my eye, I might never wake up.


    I’m just started crying because I might lose consciousness at any time. I wanted to be strong this time but my feeling was like a candle that was slowly fading. I am weak, and I feel like no air is entering my body.


    “What, are you still alive?” The door opened and I saw Hunter standing in front of me. But instead of answering him, I chose to cry. He shook his head and left me.


    I cried and much I could. I feel as I cry the oxygen that was lost in my body returns.


    Can I still do it? Yes, I can still, because when I give up, I will lose Hunter and all my hard work will be wasted.


    I won’t give up. I will take a break but I won’t give up.

    “Don’t forget to call when you arrived in Man. Don’t worry, we will visit you when the wheat harvest is over.” I nodded to mommy then hugged her tightly.” I’m gonna miss you, baby, “she said while hugging me.


    “Me too mom.” Then I let go of mommy and hugged daddy as well.


    “Take care of yourself always, Ley. If there is any problem, just give me a beep. “I smile at dad and he kisses my forehead. Then he looked at Hunter when mommy suddenly spoke.


    “Take care of our daughter, Hunter. You know how precious my daughter is to us. When you can no longer handle her behavior, send her back to us without any scratch, we will ept her wide arms open. “Mom reminded.


    Hunter would have answered when daddy spoke again.


    “Nevery your fingers on her young man, I am not asking you a favor. I warned you if you know what I mean. ”


    Hunter cleared his throat before answering.


    “Of course, dad.” And they both smiled then daddy touched Hunter’s shoulder.


    “Ley, my niece or nephew, don’t forget.” Everyoneughs at what Hera’s said. The earlier tension was once again wrapped up inughter.


    “I’ll try.” Then winked at Hera.


    “I don’t want the word TRY. I want to hear. I WILL.” I tapped her head then messed up her hair.


    “C’mon Ley, it’s gettingte .” I turned to Hunter and said goodbye to mommy.


    “Take care both of you.” Mom and Dad both said


    Hunter and I did not talk along the way. Until Hunter suddenly stopped when we were a little far.


    “Is there a problem?” I asked him then looked around.


    “Why is it my fault that you’re hurting Ley?” he asked while gripping the steering wheel tightly. “Why is it my fault that you’re having a hard time?” he asked again then turned to me.


    “Answer me, Ley. Why am I the one to me that you are pushing yourself on me and you are epting all my punishment.”


    “Hunter.”


    “Did I tell you to like me? Did I tell you to snatch me from my fiancee? Did I tell you to stay? Did I force you to do this, Ley?” He continued until he shouts out without getting an answer from me. “Answer me, Ley! Did I ask you to stay! If punished and hurt you, it is because I wanted you to get out of my life. That is my only way to kick you out of this fucking marriage.”


    Hunter mmed the steering wheel. I felt sorry for him, but I felt more sorry for myself when I lost him. If only he had opened his heart, he would see how much I loved him. I’m sure he’ll love me too.


    “But I love you, why can’t you give me a chance to prove that I am deserving to be your wife. We’re married, you can’t escape from that. Just give me a chance to prove that I am worthy.”


    “No your not. No one else deserves to be my wife but K.” Then she straightened up.


    I felt annoyed because I heard someone’s name again.


    “So even though I’m making you happy, you’re still thinking of K?” Even though I already know the answer, I still want to hear it.


    “Whoever else makes me happy. Still, K is still the one I think.” He looked at me. “There is no greater woman rather than K. Anywhere, anytime, anyone. Not even you Ley. Even in bed.”


    He seconded and started the engine.


    I was insulted, I know K very well and I don’t want to believe that Hunter didn’t know the stupidity K was doing. Yes, I’m not a good woman maybe, butpared to Kyl, I’m even more proud that my husband was the first to im me. Compare to her girl, I am cleaner and my femininity is dignified. So, is it an insult on my part that hepares me to a woman who is ustomed in bed with a different man?


    He doesn’t even face it directly, but that’s what he wants to release. I can be better than Kylie but he doesn’t give me a chance.


    “Yeah, maybe because of the number of men she’s slept with. She’s really good at fooling around and having fun in bed. Who am I topare to a slut like her.”


    He did not continue to start the car engine. Instead, he grabbed my arms and squeezed.


    “What did you say? Take back what you said. “He said firmly. He was angry and I could see it in his eyes, even though his voice was calm.


    “Why would I? It’s true, isn’t it? Don’t tell me you didn’t know you weren’t her first man.


    Actually, Vince is her first sex, her one true love. My suitor, who popped Kylie’s cherry back in the schoolyard. When we were —”


    He immediately grabbed my cheek by a give me a hard p. Hunter also grabbed my two arms and her face blushed with anger.


    “You have no right to insult K in front of me. Even millions of men will pass by her I will still love her. And even a million times you be a virgin to me, I will not love you. Because you are not K. You can never be K, so don’t dare insult her again in front of me or maybe that’s not all I can do to you. “Then he let go of me by pushing. He also kicked me softly.


    Am I overdoing it?


    Did I do it wrong?


    I dragged K’s name for her to be dirty in front of my husband.


    “Hunter.”


    “Don’t talk, Ley, I’m begging you not to talk, or else I’ll kick you out of this car while we’re running.”


    I sighed and follow his order.


    It was unintentional. I don’t want him to get mad at me.
