Your silence is killing me

Your silence is killing me
EP.28 Financial Statements


Lyra came home with a hand holding some paperbags. But unlike his mother-in-law who was brought by his bodyguard. A tired Lyra headed straight to her room with her luggage but previously greeted her mother-in-law for a moment.


"Thank you mom for today, I'm so tired that I'm going to go straight to bed. Good night mom." said Lyra politely.


"Yes.." reply Vina briefly.


Lyra did not care as long as she had treated him well and politely. Then he went up to the 2nd floor where his room and James were. He was tired of putting his groceries in the place of goods and then cleaning it.


While taking a bath, James came out of his private room and greeted Lyra.


"How was it today?" ask James.


"It's exhausting." replied Lyra.


"Not usually women are happy when it comes to shopping.?" ask James.


"I know, but I'm not just shopping but also shopping class.I have to memorize all their latest brands and products and the materials used." said Lyra.


"My mom is so. thankfully you got along" said James.


"Yes.. Thank you for the card you gave me. The tiny item is very valuable if taken to a place I visited with mom." said Lyra.


"And sorry if the spending is big" Lyra added.


"It's okay, I'm glad you're using it" James said.


"You're not angry? I used it quite a lot" said Lyra.


"Yes, if you count it as not much" said James.


"It's good that if you're not angry, I'll take a shower first." said Lyra.


"Hmm.." James replied.


When Lyra takes a bath, James sees whatever Lyra buys. Just a bag and some clothes. Makes James wonder because his mom shopping a lot but Lyra only buy some items.


"Is he afraid that I'll get angry if I shop a lot?" james in the Heart.

When Lyra came out of the bathroom, she found James still in the storage room walk in closet.


"What's wrong? do you want to talk?" ask Lyra.


"If I wanted to use my gift card, I wouldn't be mad" James said.


"Well, I'll wear it when I need it." said Lyra.


"Why don't you shop a lot of stuff like Mom?" ask James.


"Because there's not much I need, and I'm just buying something that I don't need that I want" Lyra said.


"Ohh so that's it. hmm your face looks different so cleaner is usually dull." joked James.


"So mom asked me for treatment.Why is it dull? my activities are solid and I don't have to wear makeup all the time." said Lyra.


"Nothing. yasudah." - James replied.


"Hmm.." reply Lyra change. "Am I doing a financial statement??" lyra murmured in the heart.


The tired Lyra also broke down her body and fell into a deep sleep. Until James who wanted to give their marriage book was not so and immediately returned to his private room. But before he saw Lyra for a moment, he stared at a plain face that rarely complained to him. I don't know why guilt is haunting him. What if he destroys the future of this girl? thought.


All sorts of thoughts made him monologue in his mind. I don't know how long they'll be married and will James leave her Lyra will be okay and find the right partner?? or did he get insults from people around?? Then what if instead Lyra finds the right partner but can't be together because of the marriage status that binds her to James?? That's James' complicated mind.


James returns to his room before waking up Lyra. She is determined to look after Lyra until she finds the right partner for her. All this happened because Camila was reckless and destroyed her marriage to Jessika. I don't know until when James can forget Camila who left so many wounds.

The next morning, James gave them their finished marriage book. And Lyra looked at him with an indecipherable look.


"What's wrong?" ask James.


"No, it's just that I got married at a very young age" Lyra said.


"Let's just say if you want to split up and find the right guy, I'll let you go" James said.


"My mind isn't that far off James, I'm still busy with college, part-time work and other activities" Lyra said.


"Regarding your part-time job, why did you do it when you've been living comfortably here?" ask James.


"Because I'm lonely in this big house. And I'm tired of nothing I can do." Lyra said honestly.


"Alright, but you don't have to work it's tiring" James said.


"It's true, but I enjoy it." said Lyra.


"Because to me, happiness is simple" Lyra said.


"Ck. yasalah quickly down and breakfast." said James.


They had breakfast with Vina, and as usual Lyra had cooked their breakfast. And Vina started to like Lyra's cooking. While Lyra is trying to adapt to the new taste in her tongue.


There's not much Lyra can eat because it doesn't suit her taste. And he left with James after breakfast. On the way he saw a rice stall sitting on the side of the road. He tells Ben to stop buying it.


"Ben stopped.." said Lyra.


"What's wrong? is anything left behind?" james was surprised.


"What's wrong, miss?" ben asked confusedly as he suddenly pulled over.


"I want to buy some rice, will you?" asked Lyra.


"I thought something was left behind" James said.


"No, miss, I've had breakfast" Ben said.


"James, you want to?" ask Lyra.


"No, I'm full" said James.


"Okay.." reply Lyra and buy rice and freshly cooked fried rice that tantalizing.


Then he got back in the car and went to college. James looked at her with a strange look.


"Is something wrong?" ask Lyra.


"You're a weirdo" said James.


"My tongue, the Indonesian tongue is not a bule tongue like you." Lyra replied.


While Ben saw the debate the master and his wife just smiled. How can these two different people come together if the difference is so much.?? thought Ben.

When he arrived at the campus, James insisted that he wanted to take Lyra to the gate and inevitably Lyra complied because Ben did not want to stop when he told him to.


"Basic, I'm ashamed to be the center of attention." said Lyra out of the car and walked quickly.


James and Ben saw it was true that Lyra was the center of attention when getting out of their car. James also remembered the reason why Lyra was embarrassed to be driven by a car to the front of the gate. And Ben's answer was enough to make him furious.


"What is babby sugar?? does that job really exist, Ben?" ask James.


"There's a master, but yes it won't appear on the surface. Because it will certainly cause debate in the community that does not like it." said Ben.


"It's appropriate for him to always argue about this" said James.


"From tomorrow follow his wishes. And find the culprit who slandered Lyra" James said.


"Okay sir." said Ben.

Meanwhile, on the sidelines of his break Ben also met someone related to his mass.


"You sure you saw it?" ask Ben.


"Make sure sir, I saw a man carrying a baby with a green blanket" the man said.


"Who is he?" ask Ben.


"I don't know sir because I just look back" he said.


"Ck. Anyway you guys find out and you have to help my men..!" ben's orders.


"Okay, sir." they said.


"You old man, don't try to lie to me" Ben said.


"Although sir, I will try to help you" he said.


James saw it from a distance. He also knows what problems Ben is facing, as his boss and also his best friend.


"Is there a bright spot?" james asked closer.


"Not yet, hopefully Daphne is still alive" Ben said.


"Nobody can't be Ben" James said.
