(Family) Bound
Promises

Kira looked towards the door of Shaka's study and shook her head. Leo and Alex had just said goodbye, but apparently Shaka and Justin felt there was still not enough to talk. Shaka has been close to Leo and Alex since childhood. But since getting to know Justin he was the closest to the man.

Kira walks closer to Shaka's study. He also wanted to meet and talk with Justin. Kira frowned as she slipped she heard Shaka's scream. She was pretty sure her husband was having a fight with Justin for some reason. This is of course very surprising Kira because all this time the two men always get along and never quarrel. Friction between the two friends is only limited to the debate that often occurs.

"Denger. I admit that you have sacrificed a lot for me just like Kira. But that doesn't mean you can casually bales into my son..!!" Shaka cried to make Kira's step stop right when she grabbed Shaka's workroom door handle.

"Is that what you think of me, Shaka..?? Because I love your little girl..?? I have absolutely no intention in that direction, Ka." Justin's voice chimed in.

"I don't know when my feelings started to grow. I even thought it was just an uncle's feeling to his nephew. But every time I gossip about my closeness to a woman, my thoughts always drift on Rania. Afraid she would mistake that closeness as a lover's relationship. I finally realized it was a different feeling. I love Rania. And I'm really sincere." Continue Justin.

DEG..!!

My heart stopped beating. The man she loved so much as a sister. The man he had always considered to be the uncle of his children. The man loved his little girl. A little girl who just turned 12 last month.

Although Rania always raved about her desire to marry Justin after she grew up, but she and Shaka never responded seriously considering Rania was too young. But hearing the mature and mature man express the same desire made Kira surprised.

"SHIIITT..!!" Bumpat Shaka when he heard Justin's confession..

"What do you mean, Justin..??" Kira asked as she opened the door of Shaka's study.

Both Justin and Shaka looked surprised at his presence. Shaka rushed over to Kira worried about the woman's health.

"Dear." Call Shaka while trying to grab his wife's body.

Kira kept staring at Justin's face. He brushes Shaka's hand trying to grab it and walks over to Justin.

"What did you mean..?? ANSWER..!!" Kira forced Justin to answer her question because the man remained silent.

"Sister, I love Rania." Justin replied as he looked at Kira with great earnestness.

PLAAAAAKK..!!

Suddenly Kira's hand floated hard onto Justin's handsome face. Shaka who was shocked approached Kira and tried to calm her down.

"Kira..!! Please calm yourself." Shaka said while gently stroking Kira's back to calm her down.

"Are you even aware of what you said, Justin..!!" Kira exclaimed with a breath of breath.

"I'm sober. Very conscious, brother. Anyone who hears will say that this is wrong. But whose heart problems can prevent it, brother..??" Justin's Sahut.

"My daughter is too young Justin. He was just 12 years old. How can you easily say that you love Rania..??!!" Furious Kira.

"I knew. And I'm well aware of that. But I am serious and sincere about my feelings. I love Kira and Shaka. Also respect and respect you. That's why I'm here to talk to you guys properly." Justin's Sahut.

"Are you even thinking about your age difference..??!!" Said Kira again.

"Did Kira and Shaka think about it when they got married..??" Justin's question silences Shaka and Kira.

"Our difference is Shaka who is younger than you, brother. Julian and Nancy were also 15 years old. They started dating when Nancy was 16. But can't you all live happily and love each other..?? Then how is it different from me who loves Rania and wants to marry her when she grows up..??!!" Continue Justin.

"Therefore I come to you. Because I don't want to make the same mistake a second time. Can only love in silence because my attitude is too cowardly." Justin's Sahut.

Kira frowned because she had just found out that Justin had harbored feelings for a girl, while Shaka chose to be quiet.

"I know Rania is too young to understand any of this. But as adults who are also Rania's parents, you can definitely consider my request well. So please, give me a chance to explain everything first." Pinta Justin remained calm and patient facing two people who seemed ready to boil him alive.

Kira and Shaka looked at each other for a moment. They both sat on the sofa in the room.

"Speak..!!" Kira said firmly and coldly.

Justin heaved a sigh of relief then sat down on the single sofa that was in front of Kira and Shaka.

"As I've said before, I love Rania. And I intend to marry her after 20." Said Justin.

Kira and Shaka's faces stiffened immediately but they remained silent, waiting for Justin to continue his explanation.

"I promised not to force or influence Rania's mind so that she would marry me. Nor will I cross my line and touch her before she is my legal wife, if that is what you fear. You can hold my word." Continue Justin. The man was silent for a moment while alternately looking at Kira and Shaka with great earnestness.

"I love Rania and love her. Whatever I do for her is to protect and protect Rania. Although I have the desire to marry Rania, I do not want to take away her youth. I want him to live his life like a teenager his age. Even if it means he will fall in love with another man. When the time comes and Rania does not love another man. As long as he and you don't mind. I'm going to marry Rania. If it turns out that he met a man better than me, I'll let him go. But before that happens, I'll see to it whether or not that man will actually make her happy." Justin again.

"Can I hold your words..??" Shaka asked full of questions. Justin smiled at his best friend's question.

"You and Kira can judge whether you can trust me or not." Justin replied with a smile.

"But I have one request." Said Justin. Kira who was still silent raised next to her eyebrows.

"Please let me keep meeting Rania as usual. And don't match Rania with another man. Let him choose who the man is the purpose of his life. Although it may not be me the man she'll choose." Justin Pinta.

Kira remained silent. He walked out of the room without saying anything. Kira slammed the door very hard while closing it.

"For now I can't say anything. I have to talk to Kira before I make a decision." Shaka.

"I understand." Justin said with a warm smile.

"Gue personally believes that you will not betray my trust with Kira. And I warn, if you can hurt my child let alone act out of bounds. I will not forgive you. Walopun lo my best friend, I will make your life destroyed until you are restless. Catch that..!!" Threat Shaka.

"Thank you." Justin said with a smile full of relief. Shaka seemed to snort angrily while turning his gaze in the other direction.

Meanwhile, behind the door of the room. The little girl they were talking about was smiling happily. Apparently when he came to call the three adults for dinner together, he overheard Justin's conversation with his parents.

Rania is very happy because her feelings are reciprocated, even though she herself does not know whether her feelings will last or not. Just like Justin said. Let everything go as it is. Justin with his life and him with his life. Rania will see if Justin will stick with her current feelings and then unite with her. Or finally separate.

"Let's.. Let time answer that." Thought the little girl.

"I LOVE YOU, OOM. AND I PROMISE I'LL WAIT FOR YOU." Rania's promise in my heart.
