She had always tried her best to please her mother but nothing could please her. Everything she did was wrong in her mother's eyes. She learned to set aside her desire to know men and lead a life, clueless and heartless towards the opposite gender.
She sacrificed her own happiness, breaking the heart of the man she loves just to please her mother but, it was just hopeless. Instead, what she did only made her mother getting even madder at her. She just couldn't understand what made her mother so angry at her.
Then, when she couldn't take it anymore, she let it out, all at once. Her anger flowed out non-stop. The result was, well, very ugly.
Her family went down the stairs of humiliation because of her action and she never once felt guilty over what she did.

Back to the hotel, different time zone
"Hue Hedo!" Jennet swung a punch across Hue's face.
A long-haired blonde was seen flying in the air before he landed on the floor. The onlookers from the opposite rooms immediately close their door to the balcony and pulled on the curtains. They were struck by panic.
'I can't believe there's a live fight happening on the other side of my room. Must be husband and wife fights.' That was what circling in their heads.
Because the hotel was designed in the shape of the crescent moon, so, those who were staying on the opposite room can see the balcony of the other rooms.
Meanwhile, inside the room, Hue groaned in pain. He was faced down on the floor, like a starfish, covered with his long hair. The punch from his wife was really hard and it hurts his jaws. The small fists of his wife were very strong.
Jennet was gasping in fright on the bed, standing up in her defensive stance, wrapped in the comforter. Her eyes widened in panic. Cold sweat started to appear on her temples and on the back of her neck as well.
"You, can you stop undressing me?!" She asked loudly. However, she was trembling in her voice. She was shaken so badly over the ambushed from Hue.
Hue, still groaning, started to move his limbs to get up. First, his bum sticking out before he propelled his upper body up using his hands. He raised his head and he was on the posture in all four on the floor.
His eyes turned glassy. His face puckered. "How dare you punch me so hard. You're so mean!"
His head fell and tears gushed out from his eyes. "I can't believe my own wife would abuse me, this...this helpless husband, like an unwanted punching bag. Throw punches all you want, then when I burst, you throw me away... How could you...huhuhu..." He wailed, lamenting for his sad, sad life.
"Don't fake your tears. I know you're trying to get pity out of me!" Jennet said harshly. She jumped down from the bed with the comforter, wanting to flee to the bathroom.
"Then, I'll jump from the balcony. I felt so hopeless about my life. I'd rather end this miserable life for good. My own wife didn't even want me." He said and stood up. He looked like a person who had lost all hope in his life.
Jennet halted and was stricken with panic again when Hue walked towards the balcony. She saw tears dripping down his cheeks.
Is he for real wanting to die? Why did he...urgh!
"Stop!" Jennet ran and pushed him away from getting close to the balcony door. She stood in front of him, stopping him from killing himself.
"Don't you dare kill yourself! You will go to Hell if you died!" She roared at him. Her face turned pale.
She had known him for less than two weeks and now he said he wanted to die. There are lots of things that she didn't know about him. Also, she needs him for what she had aimed to do. She needs him in the future if she accidentally conceived his child.
Hue was sniffing on his nose in front of her, looking so pitiful like an abandoned cute little puppy. He glanced at her, his nose red and his eyes were wet.
Jennet exhaled a deep breath. She felt so helpless and lost. She didn't know what she should do.
"Hue, honey," She spoke, taking his attention.
Her brows wrinkled as she continued with a sigh, "I'm still not used to... to your power. This, this undressing power is too much for me. You...you can undress me...but not using your power."
She tried to explain about; he can do whatever to her but not using his power to do so because it's not fair. Only pervert would go straight ahead to undress people. She didn't want him to be a pervert. She wants him to show her real love in a good way and not because of his lust towards her.
When Hue listened to her, he was so, oh my gosh, super-duper happy!
His face brightened to the brightest. His tears dried up instantly. His love overflowed and desire perked up like a rocket. His happy mood shot up high to the sky and explode into thousands of sparkling love.
"Wife, let's make a baby now!" He said honestly without any care of what her reaction would be. He jumped at her with his childish action.
Jennet grunted and pushed him away angrily, "I am not making any baby with you, pervert!"
"Wife is so mean!" He whined loudly like a kid who was forbidden from eating candy. He cried waterfall of tears on the floor and stomped his feet, acting like an overly spoiled child.
"Uh..." Jennet hesitated.
"Fine, stop crying!" She was defeated at last by her scheming husband.
Hue leapt at her from the floor like an obedient puppy who wagged it's tail happily upon hearing his master's call for a treat.
However, he was sent flying again when he pulled on the comforter from her body, trying to gobble her whole instantly. This time he landed on the bed. A halo of stars was circling his head.
Jennet gritted her teeth in anger. 'This maniac is too much! Why can't he understand what I want?!'
"No sleeping with me tonight. You have to be obedient and behave yourself!" She said, giving him a warning.
Hue moaned in pain on the bed. He turned to his side and propelled his upper body up with the support from his elbow.
"When can I eat you?" He asked softly but over his face showed how he hoped to devour her as soon as possible.
He wanted to impregnate her so no one dares to create trouble between them. He wanted to see his future children as soon as possible and to tell the world about the proof of their marriage.
Jennet cracked her knuckles and her eyes burned with flames of unspeakable anger. Is there nothing decent in his head?
She pointed out at him, "If you can't control yourself, you can't sleep with me." She warned him. Her tone was cold.
She will teach him the proper manner of a nobleman who won't fall for his desire. She will teach him to be an ideal husband whom everyone can get jealous of. She wanted to show the world that she can find a decent man as her partner in life.
Hue, on the other hand, was unhappy with her warning. His happy mood shot downward and into the abyss of despair. He had never been told off by anyone before. He had never been treated so cold as his wife.
Everyone back at his realm treated him with care and love. Everyone will obey whatever he says and no one dared to command him.
"We're married..." Hue tried to explain and to reason with her.
But, Jennet was firm with what she said earlier. She said, "I can't validate our legality in marriage just yet. I can't let you do whatever you want until I have the proof of our marriage in my hands."
"Make a baby with me and that baby will be our proof." He explained, still trying to make her understand what he meant.
"That's not what I want." She said.
Hue frowned in astonishment. She didn't want to have a child with him?
He started to panic. "My wife, don't kick me out of your life. I will be a good husband to you even if we never have children for our whole life."
"I don't want that either." She answered. She eyed him who was displaying a worried expression over his handsome face.
She inhaled a deep breath and said, "I can't believe that I am going to say this but let's get an official marriage license."
Her voice was calm and clear. There was utter silence in the room the moment she said it.
Hue, unknowingly, gaped in surprised on the bed. He turned to stone, unable to process and unable to think what she had said. He can't even express his feeling either he should cry, laugh or be disappointed.
But for sure, his feelings were already in a huge mess over the unexpected request from Jennet. The proposal came at an unexpected moment.
"If we get a marriage license, what benefit do I get?" Hue asked when he had internally calmed down.
Since he was not too familiar with human's marriage custom he didn't know what marriage license is for in the first place. He didn't know if getting a license will restrict him from getting what he wants to do with her. He just wanted to make sure she didn't trick him into signing a license that will keep him controlled in term of his desire over her.
Jennet glared at him. Her cheeks turned rosy pink under her calmness. Is he really a God? Why is he so clueless about such things?
"Well, ehem, you can have, me, all for yourself. But, only if you and I have signed for a marriage license. It's proof in the law that we have an authorized relationship. People won't disturb you or me." Jennet explained.
Honestly speaking, she also didn't have any proper knowledge about getting a marriage license. All that she knew, once you have a marriage license, you are recognized as the spouse to your partner whenever you go.
"If we have a marriage license, am I allowed to sleep with you?" Hue asked innocently. All his concern centred on sleeping together with her. If he can't, then, he won't sign for a marriage license.
"Well, yes," Jennet answered. She felt uncertain if she chose the right man for this once in a lifetime chance. He can only think of being intimate with her.
"Am I allowed to love you?" Hue asked again. He tilted his head to the side, gazing at her affectionately.
Jennet was flustered but she still replied, "Of course you can love me. Once we have our marriage license, you can do whatever you want for as long as we are together."
Hue shot up straight on his feet and smiled with mischief.
"I can do whatever I want?" He asked again. There were hidden intentions embedded in his question.
Jennet nodded her head. This time, her cheeks became even redder. She had proposed to a man that she knew for less than two weeks.
"But, as long as what you want to do didn't break the law of human rights." She added before he can be so hyped with his unstoppable 'evil' intention.
Hue showed her a sour face, "What? Human rights?" His face turned surly, "Is there no rights for gods?" He asked sourly.
Jennet shook her head, "There's no such law for gods here. Only for humans." She answered.
Hue clicked his tongue with a sour face, "Tch, what an unfair rule. Humans can be protected but no one wants to protect even a god in this realm." He pouted with an unsatisfied and unhappy feeling.
"Isn't a being like you are already a powerful being? You can look after yourself." Jennet said straight to the point.
Hue pulled on a long face. 'Well, if I have all of my powers I can even protect the two of us. But, I am an exiled god and doesn't have all of my powers.' He mumbled alone in his head.
Jennet glanced at the sour-looking face before her. She honestly can see all kind of emotions displayed on his face. She felt like watching a live ball of emotions on display. At a time, she can see his angry face, then shifted to an unhappy face, sad face, disappointed face and sour face. All happened in a day.
"You're so childish." She whispered while staring at him.
Hue glared at her, "What did you say?!"
"You're so childish and a hopeless adult." She said, tormenting and taunting him.
She didn't know why but a little bit she likes to taunt him and she has an urge to make him cry all that she wants. But at the same time, she didn't want to make him cry out loudly. She wants to enjoy making him cry, displaying his hopelessness to her. From there she felt satisfaction.
Well, she may be a sadist in disguise under her cold and calm expression.
"I am not!" Hue denied and his face became even sourer.
"Yes, you are." She said, getting even pumped up to see him breaking down in despair.
She had been a very obedient person long, long time ago, suffered enough and now she wanted to turn the table. She wanted to feel satisfied. Firstly, by satisfying her urge to bully Hue all to her heart content. She wanted to bully the man who always turned her world upside down.
"Hehehe..." Suddenly she let out a creepy laugh while staring at him.
Though she didn't laugh out loud, hearing her laughing like that was enough to make Hue fell into a questioning state.
Hue frowned at her, "Wife, are you alright?" He asked.
Did she turn into a madwoman in a sudden?
Jennet smiled even wider, "I am alright. Let's sleep peacefully tonight and tomorrow, we can get our marriage license." She said with a wide smile.
Hue had a questioning look on his face. What happened to her?
But, he didn't bother to ask nor did he bother her to be lovey-dovey with him. They slept together on the bed without doing anything else. Well, for once, Hue felt like not wanting to do anything on her after witnessing her creepy smile.
On the same night, Hue slipped out of her room and disappeared in the night.
