"That's because Mommy cornered Brian and Elise. So we have no other choice and do all this." Elise tries to defend and explain their situation when they have no other choice.

"Don't make the reason that you have that crazy idea. You can still find other ways to keep Brian by your side."

​​

"But now, Mommy really ask to your love for Brian. Do you really love Brian?"

"I really love Brian, Mom," Elise replied.

"If you loved Brian so much, you would never ask Brian to do all of this. You wouldn't want to see Brian touch another woman. And you wouldn't accept Brian's child from another woman."

Elise was silent at Rena's words. It did make her sad and hurt. And Elise was speechless.

"Mommy can no longer hold it. Mommy wants you to divorce Elise!" Said the final Rena. Instantly Brian and Elise looked at Rena in disbelief.

"Mom," Brian protested. Brian knows this time he is wrong and she has the right to be angry and punish him. But divorcing Elise .... How can Brian do that?

"You still want to call me mommy. If you do, then you have to divorce Elise." Rena has made her decision. And no one will be able to oppose it again. Brian and Elise have to get divorced. No arguments, no protests.

"Mom, don't make Brian be in a difficult choice. Mommy and Elise are the two most meaningful women in my life. I can't choose one of you." Brian tries to persuade rena.

Rena fell silent. She took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Trying to suppress the anger that was in her heart.

"You have opposed and made Mommy disappointed by marrying Elise. And now you want to make Mommy disappointed again with the agreement. Do you want Mommy to be more disappointed in you by not obeying my words?"

Brian fell silent. He did feel guilty because he had made his mother disappointed him repeatedly. Brian has also opposed Rena's wishes repeatedly for Elise's sake. This time, would he oppose and disappoint Rena again in order to keep Elise beside him?

"Divorce with Elise?" Rena's eyes stared at her son.

Brian, who Rena stared at, didn't know what to answer. Really this is a difficult choice. He doesn't want a divorce with Elise, but he also doesn't want to make Rena even more disappointed with him.

Brian turned to Elise, who was standing beside him. The woman silently lowered her head.

How about this? What will Brian choose? Could he have complied with Rena's request to divorce Elise?

Divorce with Elise? The rena's words kept ringing and repeated in Elise's head. She saw her anger and determination. And she also heard a doubt in Brian's voice. Maybe Brian will agree to rena's request to divorce her?

Elise was getting lost in her own thoughts. If Brian divorces her, what will happen to her? If Brian leaves her, Elise will live alone again. Live in solitude and return to the past. When there is no one who can be used as a support and support in her life.

The deeper Elise thought the more she sank into the memory of her past. And slowly the trauma that used to be suppressed by Brian's presence and love, now starts to shake Elise again.

The woman's body began to tremble, getting more intense. Cold sweat started to appear on her forehead and soaked her whole body. Elise's eyes began to lose consciousness. The woman thought back to the incident six months ago. When she was sexually abused. If Brian divorces her, there is nothing Elise can rely on and depend on. The woman will return alone and lonely. Experiencing times where no one wants and loves it. Elise fell deeper and deeper into her trauma, and slowly darkness took over everything.

"Mom, Brian ..." Brian didn't have time to continue. Elise's body who stood beside him swayed and almost fell if Brian was not fully alert the woman's body. Elise passed out in Brian's arms. Brian felt Elise's whole body tremble.

"Elise." Call Brian by patting the woman's cheek. But there was no response at all.

Rena, who had been sitting, started to get up and approached Brian and Elise. She never expected Elise to pass out at this time.

"Elise," Called Rena. The middle-aged woman looked a little worried. Even though she wanted Brian and Elise to divorce, she never thought Elise would pass out. Rena could see Elise's body trembling violently. What's wrong with that woman?

"Mom, hurry and call the doctor!" Said Brian, who was now carrying Elise and bringing the woman into the room. On the other hand, Rena quickly contacted Doctor Steven, the Fernandez family doctor.

.....

Elise was laid on the bed by Brian. And the man sat beside her. Brian is very worried and anxious. Seeing what happened to Elise, Brian knew that the woman was reminiscing about her past and experiencing her trauma again. Maybe Rena's words sparked it all. Brian remembers a few days ago, he found Elise who was speechless with empty eyes, when the woman began to remember her trauma. Brian has been trying to suppress her and make Elise forget her trauma again, by making her happy these past few days. But he never expected that this current incident would happen.

Rena finds out all their secrets and encourages Brian to divorce Elise. And it made Elise's situation worse, to the point that she could not bear the trauma and eventually fainted.

Brian wiped the cold sweat on Elise's forehead. The woman's body was still shaking, her forehead furrowed very tightly. Endured the pain that tormented her. Not sick due to physical injuries but pain due to mental injuries at Elise's address. The psychologist had told Brian that Elise could go crazy if things got worse. Or if the woman is continuously immersed in the darkness of her trauma.

The sound of the door rapidly opening. Rena came with Doctor Steven.
