My Beloved Bodyguard's
THE MBB 52

“Mas.” Shanuella's voice shook withstanding the cries. Hiding in the toilet, he shed the feelings he had been holding back from earlier. The only place to complain was Bayu, the man who had bound himself to her for the past five years.

“Crying again? Why, Shan?” Bayu had just dropped off Lana and was preparing to leave for work.

“Dia, Mas. She ... she is here.” Shanuella sat on a toilet whose cover was closed.

“Blade?” Bayu uttered the man's name with a high degree of emotion.

There was no answer, only a loud and irregular sobbing sounded.

“Shan, where are you? I'm picking up now.” Bayu's voice sounded concerned.

“I ... I .. in the toilet, Mas.”

“I pick up now, huh?” haggard Bayu again.

“No need, Mas. I'm fine.”

“Turn off the phone, we video call.” Bayu's worried.

There's no answer. Only the sound of crying grew louder. Not waiting for a response, Bayu turned off the call and contacted Shanuella via video call.

His wet face, watery eyes and the tip of Shanuella's pointy nose also flushed. The beauty of the 24-year-old woman did not decrease even though she shed tears. Bayu smiled, looking at the wife who was shedding the burden through crying.

Fifteen minutes passed, he only watched Shanuella weep bitterly from the screen of his phone. The man just kept silent while counting the drops of water that drenched his wife's cheeks.

“Have wept?” asked Bayu, looking at the face with the background of the toilet.

Shanuella.

“If you are not satisfied crying, I will go to your office to lend you my shoulder. Come on, wipe your tears. Why cry?”

The beautiful woman opposite the call seemed to catch her breath along with the fluid clogging in the nasal cavity. Looks adorable and makes Bayu laugh slowly.

“Mas where to go?” shanuella asked in a raucous voice.

“You work. Wh why? Want to ask me to skip?”

Shanuella.

“I turn it off first, Mas.” After spilling her heart out, Shanuella's feelings improved slightly.

The head with beautiful unraveled hair nodded.

“Do not need me anymore?”

Shanuella.

“So, I got dumped?” Bayu put on a grieving face that truly represented his feelings.

“Mas, don't joke anymore.”

“I and Lana love you, so don't cry anymore. We are sad when Mama cries.” Bayu's words calm and remind Shanuella of a reality that can not be ignored.

“Ya, Mas.”

“Smile then, Shan.” Bayu bit his lips, he saw the look of ayu that shook his soul. 

“Mas, already.” Shanuella.

“Remember, Shan. You're my wife. Never play with anyone out there. Maybe your heart is not on me. No problem, but don't destroy my honor.” Bayu.

Shanuella.

“Shan, life is unpredictable. Anything can happen out there. I want you to know .. Everyone has their own problems, crying over different problems. I don't care who you cry for. But I want to be the reason you smile. I want to be the reason you laugh. I want to be the reason you fight. I want to be your reason ... fall in love someday.” The last piece of sentence weakened and vanished into the commotion from within Shanuella's phone.

“Shan.” The noise on the toilet door distracts me.

“Mas, I turn it off first, yes. Someone's looking for me.” Shanuella disconnects the video call and hurriedly stands up from the toilet seat.

“Shan, Mother Frolline is looking for you!” The slings on the toilet door are getting tighter.

“Ya, briefly.” Shanuella swiped the flush button. The roar of water rang out loud from inside the white sitting toilet. Breathing out while patting her cheek, she didn't want everyone to know she was crying.

...🍂🍂🍂...

“Shan, accompany Mr. Rarendra to the project. There are a few things he wants to explain to you.” Frolline lowered her orders shortly after Shanuella entered the company's leadership room.

Deg.

Accidentally, Shanuella threw a glance at the beautiful man who was staring at her unblinkingly.
