Forced Marriage

A middle – aged woman who still looks very beautiful and elegant began to enter her son ‘s luxurious house .

Auris immediately hugged her son warmly .

“Mommy misses you dear, how come you’re getting more handsome, hehehehe” Auris praised accompanied by laughter that could be heard clearly in Joan’s ears.

“This is the medicine you asked for” Auris handed him a packet of medicine, last night Joan called Auris to ask for a powerful medicine to relieve nausea for his wife. Unexpectedly Auris actually brought the medicine directly, even though Joan was the one who would buy the medicine herself.

” Thank you , even though Joan did not ask Mama to buy this medicine ” said Joan after receiving the medicine package .

Auris just smiled sweetly, he patted his son’s shoulder.

“It’s okay, dear, just think of this as love from mamah for future grandchildren”

Joan laughed, and so did Auris. Now the two of them started walking side by side towards the living room.

Joan invited Auris to sit down, while she went to the room to bring Liza to the living room.

Liza who was looking at her reflection in the mirror immediately stopped her activities when she saw her husband was already in front of the bedroom door.

” Mamah has come ” said Joan , the man walked over to Liza .

” Is my face not too pale ? ” Liza asked while showing her face in front of Joan .

” It ‘s a bit pale , but still beautiful , ” Joan said with honesty .

” Yes , I ‘ve used the powder first , ” Liza sat back down on the chair in front of the dressing table .

” If you use powder it will be paler dear , because your skin is bright white ” Joan took the powder that was being held by his wife . He then put the powder back in its original place .

Joan took Liza’s body forcibly, she didn’t want Liza to not feel confident to meet Auris. Joan really liked Liza’s natural and perfunctory appearance, since Liza was pregnant, she became insecure, very different from herself who is still an actress.

Liza could only surrender without giving any rejection, Joan carried her slim body in bridal style to the living room, where her mother-in-law was waiting for her.

” Oh my goodness , is your pain so bad that you can not walk dear ” Auris covered her mouth with both hands when she was surprised to see the arrival of her son in law and son .

“No, Joan doesn’t want Liza to be tired, that’s why I carried her” said Joan reassuring her mother, the man immediately sat Liza’s body on one of the sofas next to him and Auris.

Liza just looked at her husband with an annoyed face. If only her mother-in-law wasn’t here at this time, maybe Joan’s face would be the victim of her claws.

” Honey are you still feeling nauseous ? ” Auris rubbed the top of her daughter – in – law ‘s head very gently .

Liza shook her head with a smile that continued to stick to her thin lips ” It’s better, it’s better than last night ” Liza answered.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Last night Liza had to go back and forth to the bathroom because she was constantly nauseous, her stomach also felt very sick. Joan didn’t even sleep because she had to take care of his wife, the man was very afraid if there was a problem with the fetus that was being conceived by Liza.

Auris breathed a sigh of relief “You have to be strong, honey, pregnancy is not easy. A mother’s toughest struggle is when she was pregnant for 9 months and gave birth with difficulty.” Auris hugged her daughter-in-law warmly.

“I’m scared,” Liza said quietly.

” Afraid why dear ? ” Auris wrinkled her forehead .

” I ‘m afraid I can not be a good mother for this child ” Liza rubbed her stomach which was still flat .

“Honey, don’t say it like that, I’m sure you can be a good mother, so please believe in yourself!” added Joan who saw fear haunting his wife’s mind.

” Li , listen to mama , okay ? ” Auris lifted Liza ‘s thin chin to focus on staring at her .

” Even though Mamah is not the one who gave birth to you , but I promise you , I will always be there to accompany you ” Auris pulled Liza ‘s body back into her arms , Liza ‘s sobs began to be heard clearly by Auris and Joan .

Auris is very aware of Liza’s fear, the woman may have experienced severe trauma due to her parents who were always strict and never gave her affection to Liza.

” Liza calm yourself ” Joan rubbed his wife ‘s back .

Auris gave a signal to Joan to let Liza cry out all the pain she had been hiding alone.

” Liza dear , from now on do not keep your problems alone , Auris ‘s mother will always be there for you son ” Auris continued to rub her daughter – in – law ‘s back hoping to give her some peace .

Joan was just silent with teary eyes , her heart was like being stabbed by a dagger to see her idol again dissolved in sadness .

For about 10 minutes Liza buried her head on Auris’s shoulder. His eyes had been so sore that he had been shedding tears ever since.

“I’m sorry, I can’t control myself” Liza wiped her tears roughly.

” It ‘s okay dear , I understand why ” Auris just smiled showing a row of white teeth .

” Are you okay dear ? ” Joan asked , the man immediately handed Liza a glass of water .

Liza just nodded then drank the water until there was nothing left.

Joan kissed his wife ‘s forehead , the man continued to stare at Liza ‘s beautiful face without stopping .

It seems that the only thing that can make you stop crying is Dilan. Joan thought.

Besides being afraid that I can’t be a good mother to our child, I’m also very afraid that in the end I can’t be a good wife for you, Sis. Liza thought.

Liza and Joan glanced at each other. Joan pulled the corners of her lips trying to keep a smile on her face in front of the two women she loved.

Unlike Liza, her expression is full of anxiety, fear, but on the other hand she is happy with the presence of a little angel in her womb right now.
