Stealing The Wife's First Kiss Chapter 119
Advertisement
"I thought he was a lunatic but his clothes weren't so bad. And he brought a knife that was hidden in his hand".
Deg.
"Are you hurt?".
"No.. I just fell down and I screamed. He stared at me. So scary. I'm so afraid, Hendra".
_Oh my God_
"Fortunately your bodyguards followed me silently. They caught him, then they.. I don't know where they are?!".
That man immediately immersed his wife in his arms. Sounded so peaceful, but the wife didn't know there was a hand that was shaking quite strongly and eyes that were blazing.
"From now on, let me prepare two or three people to guard you".
"But I don't need that, Hendra! My daily activities are simple. I don't want to! It'll look weird!". She nagged and protested.
"Aruna, try to understand whose wife you are now".
"You used to follow me too, I was also chased by your people. But Damar and I could handle it".
"Earlier, I think probably he's just a depressed person or something like that".
"Listen to me and look at me. Look at me and open your eyes!".
"Look clearly!". Hendra's voice rose.
"The one in front of you is Mahendra. Mahendra the sole heir of Wenceslas Group". His voice wasn't soft anymore.
"Now I ask, what's your status?". That man held both of Aruna's arms, shook her.
"Wife".
"Whose wife?"
"Mahendra". That girl answered haltingly while being scared and began to shed tears. Hendra transformed into his different self.
"Then what's my status?" The blue-eyed man asked with a cold tone.
"Husband".
"Whose husband?". His hand shook again.
"My husband".
"Repeat it again louder!".
That woman sobbed, but she tried to hold it.
"My husband". Her voice was hoarse and started shaking.
"This is a reality, not a bad dream. So follow the orders".
Hendra was just messed up. That threat really came and greeted his wife. He was afraid to lose her.
***
He ambushed Aruna with a sharp question while asking her to stare at him so that the girl made a firm and repeated statement about Hendra's presence as her husband. Other people might consider this was merely an expression so that the girl realized and understood her condition which had been a wife for a week.

In Hendra's point of view which was so detailed, his behavior wasn't something simple. He was plugging in a long-term memory about his presence using the loci method.
Hendra was indeed a bit crazy about several things, including a craziness that he had to be recognized.
He forced Aruna to stare at him, including to stare at the room around her, and asked her to repeat a pattern firmly and loudly several times.
I'm a wife. Mahendra's wife.
And Mahendra is a husband, my husband.
Nobody did something this detailed just to revive and plug himself in the brain of the woman who destructed his logic.
He needed to present in Aruna's short-term and long-term memories so that the girl didn't keep feeling like she was in a nightmare. She was in a real-life where Hendra was the owner.
Aruna needed to find Hendra on the sidelines of her brain. When someone asked her 'what's your status?', the visual that was caught in stored memory was Hendra. It was indeed Mahendra who was tucked in one of the nervous systems in Aruna's brain.
And vice versa, when someone asked 'who is Mahendra?', then that girl would find the word 'my husband' indirectly. Even though she rejected it, she wouldn't forget it. The blue-eyed had plugged his position in Aruna's room spatial space.
An ancient method that Mahendra learned from his books.
[Loci method, also called memory palace or mind palace, is a mnemonic device (memorization) that was introduced in ancient Roman and treatises on ancient Greek rhetoric (in anonymous Rhetorica ad Herennium, Cicero De Oratore work, and Quintilian Institutio Oratoria work), a memory enhancement that uses visualization to organize and remember information.
The champion of the 2006 World Memory Championship, Clemens Mayer from Germany, used a 300-spot travel from "his house" for a world record in a "number marathon", memorized 1,040 random digits in 30 minutes.
The success of the memory contest champions isn't connected with the brain structure or intelligence, but more related to the use of the brain region's technique that is related to spatial study (spatial is someone's ability to visualize a picture in their mind or create it in 2D or 3D form and also how someone can place spatial aspect appropriately in various decision making, in creating)].

Simply, Hendra connected a spatial space which was Aruna's room to a statement that had to be memorized and saved. Hendra inserted himself in Aruna's memory warehouse, Aruna's memory palace.
Aruna didn't have to be a memory contest champion. She only needed to save it and have trouble deleting it.
Hendra knew this girl wasn't so smart in several things. The blue-eyed understood every sentence that was launched by Aruna's mother, that Aruna wasn't so smart in science or mathematics field like himself.
But she had an extraordinary ability related to form a design, create several things, arrange layout. One of the examples, when arranging a blue ocean 3D invitation in a narrow room box, her perspective became wide. That girl could make people who saw her become thoroughly fascinated and as if capturing the vast blue ocean without limits.
Aruna was smart spatially. And Hendra needed to be remembered spatially.
If Damar ambushed Aruna with his poetic words, that was the ability that he really mastered. Hendra also had another way to ambush Aruna. He would use his behaviors and knowledge to strengthen his presence.
Hendra had caught that man's update earlier than Aruna, through an Instagram account with the username @bluehadyan. Even though honestly, Hendra really didn't understand the meaning and what the writer meant.
*Present in the most unworthy place?
*Feel the lyric that is entrusted?
*Invisible hallway?
*Return 6 lives???
Hendra's comprehension was big zero. He gave up to understand what his rival meant. Unfortunately, the husband knew the meaning of Reddish Hue was the rival's special name for Aruna. Obviously, that status was meant for his wife.
And when Hendra came, he found the hug that was so deep behind the cry. Since a threat started greeting his wife from his complicated life.
And when he offered protection, the wife rejected and brought up the name of his rival : "Damar and I can handle it". Hendra pushed himself not to be mad. His hands were shaking and his eyes were blazing.
Aruna needed to know where her position was and needed to understand who owned her now. The woman who destructed his logic needed to know clearly and consciously that Mahendra, the sole heir of Wenceslas Group, was the only one who entitled to her and it was undeniable. Aruna needed to follow his orders.
After that, the blue-eyed used his brain to think about how to control Aruna. He didn't have poetic words or romantic behaviors like 'strategy beyond expectation' that was owned by his rival.
But, Hendra had another way that was more special. He used his brain and used his behavior to control Aruna.
.
.
The blue-eyed chose to get out of the room to pick up the call that he got. He knew this call was from the people on the D floor, which needed to be kept tightly from anyone.
A discussion that was quite long between the two handphones, his phone and his grandfather's personal secretary's phone, Andos.
"Don't touch him. Let that man stay alive. This time, I'll use my way to find out who they are".
"Just keep that person and make sure he's not taken by anyone".
"Put him in the detention room on the D floor. I need to meet him before we make a decision. Even you guys don't need to do any interrogation".
The next call was from Raka, the head of the bodyguard suggested that he and his wife go back to the main house soon.
Or Raka would send more people to guard Mr. Lesmana's house and that thing didn't seem ethical in Hendra's eyes.
.
.
When Wiryo's grandchild opened the door with 'baby Aruna' written on it, he saw that girl already wearing different clothes and smelling nice.
"We'll go back to the main house now! Please help me pack the things that you want to bring". Hendra pulled out the clothes from the cupboard and started folding them quickly. On the other side, Aruna didn't seem to accept this decision.
That girl closed the suitcase that they brought from the main house tightly. She hid it behind her back.
"Aruna, what are you doing?". His voice was cold but his hands were arranging clothes on the shabby chic bed swiftly.
"No! I don't want to go back now. You've promised me that we'd stay for 2 days".
"I said it before I came late. So it's time for us to go back this afternoon".
"No, I don't want to.. Even though it's still afternoon, a promise is a promise. You have to keep it".
