Bonds Without Love
ITC #25

Bhishma thought back to what Leo had said last night, remembering the reason Karina died back then, her heart suddenly ached, Karina killed herself the same day she confirmed her feelings.

Bisma claims to love Karina, but unfortunately it is nothing more than a sister's affection for her sister, very different from Karina who loves Bisma as a man and hopes to be married.

Bisma asserted her feelings at the request of Sekar's grandmother, saying that Bisma's treatment of Karina was excessive, thus triggering a misunderstanding for Karina.

Karina thinks Bhishma has the same feelings for her, until one day she says she already has a lover, Karina does not believe, and it forces Bhishma to do something stupid.

Bisma goes to a nightclub when she finds out that Karina is following her, the man hires a woman to pretend to be his lover, and shows their affection in front of Karina to make her believe.

Bhishma lied when she said she already had a boyfriend. Because Bisma thinks that Karina deserves a better man than her, but Karina cries and commits suicide.

"Bisma?" The voice resuscitates Bhishma's daydreams of the past, Bhishma turns her body upside down and finds Leo who seems to have just woken up.

Currently, Bhishma is in Leo's apartment, standing on the balcony enjoying the outside view and remembering the past until Leo finally comes to him.

"still here? I thought you had gone to see Erin, didn't you say Erin was waiting for you at the hospital?" Ask Leo with a sleepy face.

Bisma suddenly remembered Erina, his wife must be disappointed because yesterday Bisma promised to return quickly, and Bhishma denied it.

"You're right, Erin's waiting for me, but how do I talk to her later?" Lirih Bisma's.

Leo raised his eyebrows. "Why should you be confused? do I need to teach you to talk?"

Bisma grunting. "You don't know, Erin's really hard to talk to."

"You're just gonna say sorry to her, is that hard?" Ask Leo.

"Sad, you won't understand." Reply to the bisma who then walks past Leo.

Leo turned to look at the back of Bhishma. "Hoh! where are you going?" Ask.

"Well my wife." Bhishma answered without seeing the interlocutor and just walked out of Leo's room.

Bhishma felt that there was no point in talking to Leo much, that his best friend would not help, just continue to irritate him. Because only Bhishma knows how Erin is.

Bisma chose to go to the hospital by taxi, not driving her own car because the car keys were on Leo and Bisma lazily asked her best friend.

After arriving at the hospital and asking about Soraya's ward, Bisma stepped into the room, room number forty-eight.

"Eryn?" Calling Bisma when he passed his wife, Bisma smiled at Erina, but not Erina who looked coldly at him.

"Bisma, there's something we need to talk about." Erina's words, even her speech just sounded uncharacteristic.

Bisma tries to keep smiling while convincing herself that Erina changed just because she was disappointed by yesterday's events.

While Erina, she actually wanted to run when she saw Bhishma in front of her, but somehow something was holding her back so that her legs were unable to run.

Erina was eager to avoid Bhishma as she had said before Soraya and Farhan, but when she saw Bhishma, she could not escape her husband.

"Well, how about we talk over breakfast?" Bisma Proposal.

Erina looked at Bhishma's face long before saying. "You haven't had breakfast?" Ask.

Erina had no intention of paying attention to Bhishma, just a small talk before they talked about anything serious later.

"Hm, you haven't, have you?" Bhishma turned the question still with a smile engraved on her lips.

"No, I've had breakfast, but for now I can still accompany you to breakfast." Answer Erina.

Not knowing why, Bhishma felt that the words 'now' and 'still' that Erina spoke were like telling her that they would end.

Bhishma denied it with a smile and tried to convince herself that everything would be fine, after all Erina would not have the heart to leave him.

"Then ..." Bhishma extended her hand to Erina. "My company breakfast."

"Eryn?" Reprove the bisma that feels neglected.

Erina turned to look at Bhishma's face. "What if you had breakfast at the restaurant yesterday?" Ask.

Bisma chuckled softly, Erina had just turned down her hand and it seemed that Bhishma had actually done something wrong to her wife.

"I'm sorry, Erin." Lirih Bisma after being content to laugh at him.

Erina doesn't know what she meant by Bisma apologizing to her, but it's possible she's cheating on him.

"It's not good to talk here, we should talk later at the restaurant." Erina said without caring about Bisma who looked disappointed towards her.

Bisma sighed resignedly. "All right then."

"Let's get a divorce." Erina said as they were just sitting in the restaurant.

Erina felt too strong to pretend for too long, they had a serious problem, but Bhishma was still acting ordinary and making Erina sick.

Bisma clenched her hands under the table, the man admitted wrongly had reneged on his promise, but why should Erina punish with the word divorce?

"Erin, didn't you sleep well last night?" Ask Bhishma quietly while trying to convince yourself that everything will be fine.

"After this we go home, it looks like you need a break." Bisma continued her sentence before Erina spoke up.

"You're right, I didn't sleep well last night because I kept thinking about you who didn't care about my feelings at all."

Bisma looked into his wife's face. "I'm sorry, it should have been yesterday-"

"I know everything, you and Gisella, I was stupid to think that she was embarrassed before, but I actually embarrassed myself."

Erina said that painful sentence in one breath, Erina laughed at herself as she recalled what she had done in the Soraya cafe.

"Erin-"

"Of course a woman like me can't be compared to Gisella." Erina again cut off the words of Bhishma, but her words stopped for a moment because her voice was blocked.

"So, let's end, there's no need to lie to each other, because honestly I'm tired." Erina.

The bisma clenched her hands. "Erin, who's lying to who? I don't understand what you mean!"

"The divorce between us will only happen in your dreams, you should wake up and accept the fact that we will not part." Bisma remarked.

Erina smiled cynically. "Are all men selfish like you? you play with other women and don't want to divorce other women?"

"I've never played with any woman, you just misunderstood." Bhishma said, her tone changed.

"I can't understand you, so why do we keep this marriage?" Erina tried hard to hold back her tears.

Bisma rubbed her face rough. "Erin, regarding the rumors about me and Gisella, there will be clarification, me and Gisella have no relationship whatsoever."

"If you don't feel like you have a relationship with Gisella, why don't you explain directly to me?!"
