Your silence is killing me
EP.22 Now I'm a wife

Lyra also woke up in the afternoon, she was hungry because she slept all day in James' room. Then he saw his dead cell phone last night. Lyra charges up her phone and goes downstairs to cook food. He thought he was just cooking what was in the fridge. But the truth is the waiter serves all his needs.

Lyra was just sitting there because everything she wanted to do was taken by the waiter. This must have been Robert because he did not want his daughter-in-law's granddaughter to hold homework. Lyra also enjoyed the food casually without having to cook it.

After that, he activated his phone. There are a lot of notifications coming to his phone, especially from Dion and Santi.

"Akh. I'm sorry my friends didn't mean to forget you guys.." murmured Lyra.

Lyra also told the two of them that she was having business and was fine. I promise to tell you everything tomorrow. After that, Lyra calmed down and read a book. For him skipping school is the most detrimental thing because the tuition is very expensive, even though it has been borne by Robert's grandfather and her husband still Lyra does not want to waste the money.

Lyra had also heard that Robert had left for Singapore for treatment. She was a little embarrassed to fall asleep when her grandfather left. That's how Lyra works in her new home, there's nothing she can do and just eat, sleep or read a book.

It was nightfall, and James came home from work very late. His tired face was very visible. He opened the room door and saw there were 2 large suitcases in the corner and the owner was focusing on studying on a sofa.

"You haven't slept?" james's question surprised Lyra.

"Akh. i-iya I haven't slept" said Lyra.

"Why is your suitcase here?" ask James.

"I have to ask your permission to put it where, there's no way I'm looking at your stuff carelessly" Lyra said.

"Alright, I told the waiter to empty the closet here. Come here." said James.

James also showed me the closet that would be the storage of Lyra's belongings. And Lyra obeyed all of James' words. James also admitted that Lyra is not a girl who just touched someone else's stuff and even willing to wait for him to come home just to ask it.

"So, you take care of it. I'll take a shower" James said.

"okay.. Thanks." reply Lyra.

"Hmm.." replied James opening his suit and heading to the bathroom.

Lyra also cleaned up the not-so-much stuff. He had more books than his clothes. James also explained that there was a reading room in the room to put his books. Even James promised to prepare a special table for her and while Lyra could wear her desk.

After cleaning the goods, Lyra was tired and lay down. But he was struck by a moving wall.

"Akhh. You just surprised me. I thought a ghost would appear." said Lyra.

"Ck. You're all there. It's just a secret door." said James.

"Yes but do not appear suddenly too, right if the person who just saw will be surprised" said Lyra.

"OK. sorry, so I wanted to explain something" James said.

James also explained about the secret door containing his secret room. He also slept in that room. Lyra also understood, and could sleep soundly because it turned out their beds were separated.

"I'm glad to hear it." said Lyra.

"I know you couldn't sleep well last night" James said.

"How can I sleep next to a stranger? even though he's my husband, it still feels weird" Lyra said.

"It's normal, so now you don't have to worry and we'll live like this" James said.

"When are you?" ask Lyra.

"I don't know either, but at least for now, this is the best" James said.

"Okay I understand." said Lyra.

"Sleep at night, tomorrow you'll go to college with the driver" James said.

"Alright, thank you and good night" said Lyra heading to her bed.

"Yes." said James and went into his secret room again.

While James, he stared at a photo that holds many memories. Where there is a photo of him with Camila, but also the pain of remembering Camila's actions to him. James already knew that Camila was the one who threatened Jessika and her family, causing them all harm.

James tidied up all the photos and put them in a box and put them in a closet and locked them tightly. He no longer wants to remember Camila who brought a lot of trouble in his life. Although he still loves her, James tries to continue his life and take care of Lyra, the woman he married.

The next day, Lyra was the center of attention because it was delivered by the driver to the front gate. Although Lyra tried to cover her face with a mask and hat from the jacket she was wearing.

He was also awaited by Dion and Santi to meet and talk important things. They met in a quiet place.

"Sorry my friends are late" said Lyra.

"Yes. Then why are your clothes?" dion asked to see Lyra wearing a jacket and a mask.

"Yes, are you being targeted again?" santi asked suspiciously.

"So let's sit down and talk" said Lyra.

Lyra also told of her impromptu marriage to her two best friends. Both of them were surprised by the wide-open eyes.

"So now I'm a wife" said Lyra.

"What?? " ask Santi.

"Lyr, I didn't hear you wrong, did I?" ask Dion.

"Yes, that's the fact that's the business that I've done the last 2 days" said Lyra.

"Didn't you think long before you decided to get married?" ask Santi.

"True, Lyra marriage is not as easy as you might think" Dion said.

"I understand your concerns, but I have to help the family like they helped me" Lyra said.

"Did Mr James treat you well?" ask Santi.

"Yes, you take it easy he treated me well, and we made a deal" Lyra said.

"Lyra your life is like a movie, getting married to a conglomerate, then making a marriage agreement" Dion said.

"I don't know Dion either, but I'm glad I could make Robert's grandfather happy" Lyra said.

"OK, I appreciate your decision but remember Lyra if you're in danger you have to leave" Santi said.

"If your husband does violence use your abilities. Don't be afraid." said Dion.

"Well guys, thank you for the advice" Lyra said.

Both Dion and Santi are worried that Lyra is becoming more and more entangled with the Clinton family. Although his friend can live comfortably without flaws but no one knows what will happen in the future.
