The Wedding Ring's
go away

"Where have you been!" snapped at Sean's father, Prawira when he saw the appearance of his son secretly that morning.

"Hm.. Da—from pa's friend's house," he answered nervously. He didn't tell mom and dad Sean that last night there was a graduation party.

"Why just got home?" prawira Tegur.

"Last night, Sean was staying at a friend's house. Sorry if not ngabarin, because papa mama is busy," complained Sean bowed.

Sean's family is not a family that gets along. Papa and his mother both have a strong disposition.

While Sean is far from his nature, it is soft-hearted and does not even like to be yelled at. Maybe since childhood because he was always educated hard, so Sean wanted to change the bad attitude of both parents.

"The girl from last night! Not good for you! Don't get used to! Even though papa's mom is busy, you still have to ask permission to do something" Prawira said.

Prawira left the living room because she was upset to see her only daughter who had just returned home. It was still morning, his emotions had peaked.

He grumbled alone as he walked to his room. While the prawira's wife, Sherin who is 10 years younger than Prawira only shines a sharp spotlight on her husband who is grumbling. He refused to interfere in the man's affairs.

"You teach your son! Don't like to wander. How his son is not rich that, his mother just likes to set an example is not good," angry Prawira makes Sherin angry.

Prawira and Sherin got married 20 years ago. Sherin is forced by her parents to succeed her family business. At an early age, Sherin had to give up her youth in order to serve the old man.

Sherin is 40 years old, while Prawira is 50. With her life aside, Sherin chooses to squander her husband's money instead of serving the man.

There is no love between the two. Therefore, Sean often heard the voices of his parents who were fighting, fighting each other and screaming. Makes Sean even more traumatized to sail the household ark.

"Yes, you take care of it yourself. That's your son, too, not mine," said the wry-faced Sherin.

"You are when you say husband listen carefully! Don't argue with me" prawira said.

"I don't need your advice! I'm lazy to fuss about it mutely! I've been taking care of your son for a long time now I'm hands off. I want to enjoy my old days! Having fun yourself. Because my youth has taken you first," hardik Sherin won't budge.

"Just talk to you! Rich talk about walls! If you want to live alone, go there from this house," throw Prawira out while crossing her arms in the chest.

"okay! I'm going to get out of this house! Don't look for me anywhere! Sean you take care of it! I'm tired every time we fight, you always kick me out" Sherin said. He got up from the bed, put his clothes in the suitcase.

Holy hooch! The family of Sean is too big. Sean lives in a dysfunctional family.

From inside his room, Sean could only cover both of his ears. A sense of tightness in his chest when he heard the screams of his parents clashing with each other.

He was crying alone. Moaning clear hair that continues to drip from his eye patch.

"Hiks... Hicksnake..." Sean lamented his sadness.

While Sherin has finished packing her clothes. He pushed his suitcase quickly. Even Prawira had no intention of preventing it.

"Go there! Don't come back if your money is up" Prawira said, pointing at Sherin's face.

20 Years ago....

The two families of Sherin and Prawira meet each other. That night the proposal talks and the process to their marriage level. Sherin is eager to enjoy her youth, college, friends gathering, traveling and more.

But it was only a dream to overcome the bankruptcy of his family. Only the Prawira family can fix it all. The condition is to marry Sherin who was then 18 years old with Prawira who was 28 years old.

Prawira was instantly in love at first sight. However, because Sherin is still childish, she hates Prawira a lot.

After marriage, there is no relationship between the two. Although Prawira has tried to melt Sherin's heart. Unfortunately, Sherin can not accept Prawira because of his strong disposition even his words are often thrown hurtful words.

After marriage, Sherin had forced intercourse with her husband. It could be said that only a few times they had intercourse, because Sherin always rejected Prawira's biological needs.

No wonder Sherin wasn't pregnant. Two years after the wedding, Sherin is pregnant. Remembering clearly in his mind, a month before Sean's presence, Prawira forced him to have a husband and wife relationship.

Even Sherin was slapped so many times to satisfy the man's depraved lust. Sherin was so hurt and traumatized, it was so on her mind.

After Sean's birth, neither Sherin nor Prawira's attitude changed. They remain hostile to each other despite sleeping in the same room and bed.

They both have a grumpy and hard disposition. Until making their child, Sean became a victim of the selfishness of both parents.

Sherin continues to choose to survive in order to enjoy her husband's wealth. Until now, the decision has been unanimous, leaving her husband's house after 20 years of building their household noses.

"Yes! Don't go Maa! Please!" Sean pleads while chasing his mother's departure from their stately home.

"You're just here! Stay with your papa! Mama is not strong," complained Sherin put her suitcase in the trunk of her car.

"Ma don't stay with Sean! Hix.. Hicks.." Sean kept begging but was ignored by the woman.

Sherin got into his car, slammed the door in annoyance. Leaving Sean in their yard alone, though he cried bitterly at the passing of his mother.

Sean's body drooped, he sat in their yard. Seeing the departure of his mother's sedan car until it disappeared from his sight.

"I don't have anyone anymore. No one wants to listen to my story. No one cares about me!" shrieked Sean, his cries began to flood his white cheeks.

He tried to stand up, two servants came to him. "Non is okay? Here aunty help." Bi Tuti and Bi Jenab help Sean stand up.

"It's non, don't cry anymore. Let her mother not go as she wishes. If you miss, surely he will come back looking for non," said Bi Jenab calming.

The two maids took Sean to his room. "Non rest first! Let auntie get you food and drink" Bi Tuti said. They both leave Sean's room.

Sean fell asleep with his eyes. His eyes swelled with tears lamenting his carelessness last night until his mother left him.
