Wedding Climb
Escape

Theron in all-black clothes was attached to his body. Early in the morning he prepared to go out of town, towards the auction place. Theron looked at Rhea who was still asleep, she gently touched Rhea's face "I'm gone" he said as he walked out of Rhea's room.

Theron passed Aunt Sati on the stairs. Aunt Sati stopped, bowing politely.

"Take good care of her" Theron said, glancing at Aunt Sati.

"Are you going to go straight away, sir, without saying anything to Madam?" ask Aunt Sati slowly.

Theron stared at the clock on his arm "I don't have time anymore" Theron again walked down the stairs.

Aunt Sati nodded "i will take care of Madam" he said as he looked at Theron who had started to move away.

Draka!!!

There was the sound of curtains being dropped. Slowly the light entered the room highlighting right on Rhea's face, making her forced to open her eyes. Rhea frowned, slowly waking up.

"Madam, it's noon" said softly Aunt Sati.

Rhea turned her head quickly "Auntie when is coming?" Rhea was a little surprised.

"When Madam was asleep of course" Little Aunt smiled, she was busy opening the other curtains.

"Theron said Auntie's going to take a few days off, family business?!" tanyanya while getting out of bed.

Aunt jerked "True Mistress-" she replied a little awkwardly.

Rhea felt that something was awkward "did the problem finish well?" Rhea.

Aunt Sati nodded "everything is fine Madam, I just miss getting together with the family" replied Aunty Sati who looked sad.

Rhea said "ah, sorry I didn't mean it!!" Rhea approached Auntie to touch Auntie's hand slowly, so that Auntie would not be sad anymore.

"It's not a problem Madam" Aunt looked up with a big smile.

As usual, I did a good job. Rhea was happy that Aunt Sati was back, it felt like she had someone in this mansion.

Rhea looked around, she didn't see Theron. He glanced at Theron's room but Theron didn't show up as well "Auntie, does Auntie know where Theron is?" asked Rhea who walked down the stairs.

Auntie put a carrot in the pot "master said there's some work outside the town Mistress" Auntie screeched a little.

Aunty turned her head a little "sick-hearted master woke up Madam, so you sent me a message" explained Auntie, after knowing what was on Rhea's mind. Auntie's busy putting in some spice.

"stupid!!" muttered Rhea "emphasize on yourself Rhea that's none of your business!! she guiltlessly left without saying it, obviously she treated you kindly just appreciating you as the mother of her child!!" Rhea was biting her lips strongly. Rhea shook her head quickly, she walked over to Auntie "I want to help Auntie" Rhea said.

"no need Madam, it's my job" Auntie refused.

"nothing, I want to help" Rhea pushy little.

Aunt looks serious "Mrs, I'll be fired if you know I hired you" Bibi said.

"that-that, I was just helping. Auntie didn't force me. It can't be because Auntie was fired?!" Rhea can't believe it, it doesn't make sense. Helping that was not his wish on Aunt's orders.

"Sorry Madam, sir is not the one who forgives the small mistakes of his subordinates" said Bibi politely slightly pressuring.

Rhea's forehead scrunched up "is Theron that bad?" his mind. Rhea seemed to think, it was possible given Theron's intimidating attitude.

"alright" Rhea relented not forcing her help again, she came out of the kitchen not wanting to disturb Auntie's work. Rhea looking at the broom under the stairs, Rhea smiled little "I want to help" Rhea grasped the broom, intending to sweep the floor.

Rhea swept a few lines. In front of Auntie standing staring at her sharp "shouldn't Madam" forbid Aunt again "that's my duty" Aunt looked angry, she took her broomsticks "sorry, I'm not polite. However, I really don't want to be fired Madam please understand" Aunt seemed to be begging.

Rhea nodded quickly, she blinked a few times "this is outrageous" Rhea was upset, everything she did was always forbidden "What need all things in forbidden Auntie? just sweeping for a minute won't hurt myself and the kid I'm carrying. Then, I had to continue living monotonously like this. Without having a clear purpose, even exploring myself I can't?" Rhea stared at Auntie sharply

"My lady just followed master's orders" Auntie asserted.

"You know a pregnant woman's aunt also needs to move, not crouch in the room!!" Rhea was getting upset.

"I'm sorry, but I can't ignore what you're telling me" Auntie said politely, Auntie wasn't even moved by Rhea's words.

" come on, it's just that I talk a lot.Toh you're just following your master" Rhea went back to her room no longer to be in contact with Auntie.

Rhea gazed out the window, and she remembered the time Theron and Rosetta met behind "Theron said he was just a coworker, but why did he meet secretly with her?" muttered Rhea "or maybe Theron's out of town meeting up with Rosetta and-?" Rhea turned away not wanting to think about it, her head ached and continued to think excessively.

Rhea rubbed her stomach slowly "again this riled feeling appeared" Rhea smiled bitterly. Theron's sometimes warm attitude made Rhea feel a little safe, but once again the trust was broken "must not believe it easily, why am I so stupid!?" Rhea was bowed with tears dripping down. Rhea realized more and more, he was just a shell that was being used, if uncomfortable it would be thrown away "why did you start believing in the man who destroyed you Rhea?" Rhea rubbed her tears slowly "his treatment was just a trap!! even the people here just obey their master's words"

It looks like Aunt Sati is behind the park talking to the park manager. Rhea rubbed her tears violently, she ran out down the stairs, she wished her guess was right. Usually, if Bibi meets with the park manager, Bibi does not lock the front door, I don't know what the reason is. Rhea had always been watching Aunt Sati's every move all along.

Rhea slowly opened the door, the door opened. Rhea smiled excitedly, she walked slowly out, she had long since not been this free. Rhea paused for a moment "is it okay if I go?" thought her doubted "if I meet people I know and judge me how? will I be strong?" rhea's heart was beating so hard, she turned her head back, she closed her eyes slowly stabilizing her breath . Rhea steadied her heart, she ran out loud "I'll take care of my son and raise him myself" she said, running "I'll get away from everyone, until no one will recognize me. I'll go where people don't know who I am, where people don't judge me!!" Rhea clenched her fingers firmly, ran out the gate, she kept running without looking back, hoping she would not be found.
