บท 5: EM - 5
I was touring Europe with Sean O'pry, the American model. Do you know? The most handsome and cool. Departing from Austria, we headed straight to Italy. He guided me on the gondola ride in Venice. How romantic, accompanied by violin music, we toured the waters of this famous Canal city. I gave a happy smile. We looked at each other lovingly. I feel like my life is perfect by his side.
Something shook my leg. Good grief! Sean is too flirty, he wiggles my legs.
"What's happened, Sean?" I asked confused.
"Aren't you uncomfortable sleeping with thick makeup like that?"
What?
Why did Sean say that?
"Reina, Wake up, take a shower over there."
Broken! My eyes opened and what I saw in front of me was not Sean O'pry but a handsome giant with big eyes. My dreams are gone.
My eyes blinked and moved left and right.
"Is it morning already?"
"It's midnight now. Look at you. Don't you feel uncomfortable sleeping with thick clothes and make-up like that?"
I'm still wearing a wedding dress complete with accessories. With thick make-up that makes my face feel stiff.
"What's this?" I asked confused.
"What's going on? You wake up, go take a shower."
"But it's already midnight."
"You can take a warm bath, your body will be fresh."
I got out of bed and saw that Dave was already dressed in casual clothes and seemed to be getting ready for bed.
"Please, help me take off this hair ornament."
Dave clucked, but then he moved to help me. There are so many pins attached to my hair.
"Slowly. My head hurts."
Finally, immediately the accessories in my hair were removed. Only the dress stuck to my body. How do I take it off? Where to start?
"Want to ask for help taking off the dress too?" asked Satria with bulging eyes.
"No, you go out first. I want to take off my dress."
"Why should I leave?"
"Yes, because I want to take off my clothes."
"Just let it go, what's so hard?"
"I can't take my clothes off in front of you."
"We're married now. So, it doesn't matter."
"No, I'm not ready to be your wife!"
"What do you mean?"
"You better get out first." I pulled his arm tightly even though it was useless because this giant is still standing strong like a Sudirman statue.
"Stop grabbing my hand. You're still a kid, but it's not polite to older people."
"I'm 21 years old."
"I'm 27 years old."
I gaped. Only twenty-seven. What's old?
"You pedophile! Because you married me. Oops, I mean, you're a pedophile, marry. I'm only twenty-one years old."
"Pedophile what the ... ! 27 is still young. It's up to you, I don't care. I'll give you ten minutes to take off your clothes."
He shook his head and then left the room. I dwell on the dress that clings to my body. I feel this dress is too narrow for me. Jane has a small body, while I? My body is not much different from Jane's. It's just that my breasts are a bit more—I don't like to call them—big. Some women will be confident to have large breasts like this. But honestly, I don't. That's why I prefer to wear a shirt that is too big to cover it.
Finally, with great difficulty, I was able to remove the dress. I grabbed a change of clothes and immediately, went into the bathroom. As per Dave's instructions, I took a warm bath. And what he said was true, a warm bath was refreshing.
When I came out of the bathroom, I saw Dave was already lying on the bed. Wait a minute! So, I have to share the bed with him? What if I get raped? Gosh, what was I thinking?
"Y-you sleep here too?" I asked hesitantly. Dave raised the arm that was covering his eyes.
"Where else do you think I sleep?"
"Then where do I sleep?"
Dave seemed to sigh. "Is a bed this big can't fit two people?"
"That's not what I meant. I—"
Dave got up and narrowed his eyes.
"Don't think it's weird. Our status as husband and wife, but I will not touch you. I also know you married it out of necessity. And from the start, I also had no choice but to refuse. Why don't you just run away like Jane?" Dave looked away. "This is a silly wedding. Even Grandpa didn't tell me the bride was changing."
"If you don't force your will, this marriage won't happen either. Jane ran away and you guys forced me to take her place."
"Then why do you want to?"
"Because I have no choice but to refuse, just like you. I can't let mom and dad fall. I'm like a pawn in a loan shark's lair. What's the benefit of trying to force a marriage like this? You don't even want it yourself."
"I just want to save the property of my late parents from falling into the wrong hands."
"Oh, so you agreed to marry just for money?"
"Of course. What do you think I want to marry for? To fall for one woman for life. I can't be that stupid. What else when I found out it was you. Good grief! My bad luck seems to have doubled."
"Don't be reckless, okay?!"
I was annoyed to hear his scolding.
"You have nothing to lose by marrying me. 25 percent of Wijaya Group shares will be yours. You're suddenly rich."
"I don't care. What's all this for if I have to sacrifice myself like this? I still want to go to college and have fun with my friends."
"Of course, you can still do that. But maybe you will move to college in Jakarta. I'm not going to stop you from doing something you love either."
"Including dating?"
"Whatever, as long as Grandpa doesn't find out."
My face then wrinkled and walked over to Dave. I sat cross-legged facing him.
"What are you doing?" Dave asked looking at me strangely.
"I'm sorry about what happened in Jogja at that time. I know you were very angry at that time, but I hope you can forget about it. Can we be friends?"
I don't know where I can take this initiative from. What is clear, is I have to be friends with Dave first then everything will go as I want. After all, Dave is the one I will interact with often.
"I don't want to, we're not friends. We're husband and wife. Being friends with you must be troublesome."
Annoying, it seems like he knows what's in my head. "Then just make me your sister, from now on I'll call you brother."
I put on a pleading face.
"No!" Dave lay back down and pulled the blanket.
"Come on, bro. You have to agree." I whined and pulled the blanket off.
"Reina! I'm sleepy, tired. You go to sleep too."
"Say Agree first, Brother."
"No! You are my wife, how can a wife turn into a sister. What a weirdo."
We pulled each other's blankets. Dave turned out to be a stubborn person too.
"Brother..."
"Don't call me brother!"
"Then what? Mister?"
"No!"
"My husband...."
I even teased him. I swear that's disgusting.
"Reina, let me sleep!"
"Okay, I'll just call my brother. Brother Dave!"
That's when Dave pulled the blanket so I was pulled towards him and fell on top of him.
