They returned to the hotel where they first stayed. Kendrick still looks angry, while Kirana looks shocked by the decision her husband took.
He's gone awry. Is this the price to pay for marrying Kendrick? He felt guilty for his presence, making the family's relationship fall apart.
Kirana did not expect that the man had taken such a step.
“Ken, I love you, but I also don't want to see you destroy your own family.”
“I don't want to talk about it, Kiran,” Kendrick said lazily. The man sat leaning against the sofa with his eyes closed tightly.
Is this the desired end? Nah! Kirana never wanted to make Kendrick choose, because in reality the wife and parents are not an option.
“I know your heart is faltering, Kiran. Better not talk about it first. Calm yourself,” said Kendrick breaking daydreams.
“Not the end like this I want, Ken.”
Kirana felt valuable because the man defended her, cherishing her in front of the family, but there was regret creeping in her heart when it came to getting the man to be at the crossroads of a dilemma.
“You're sorry, Kiran?” Kendrick sat up straight, his eyes glaring sharply at the wife.
“Are you starting to doubt our story?”
Kirana shook her head slowly.
“I just don't want to make you fight your own family, Ken.”
“Those who want it, Kiran.”
Kirana lowered her head, hiding the tears that were seeping out. Why is everything so complicated like this.
“Then, you don't have to feel guilty. Sometimes they have to give up to make me happy. Parents should be respected, but seeing my parents' attitude towards you, I'm ashamed, Kiran. You are my wife, they should be able to respect you a little bit if they don't like it. I've been holding back since setting foot there.”
Kendrick approached the wife, hugging her tightly. Give him strength and channel the feeling of peace.
“Don't mind much, it's not good for your content. Tomorrow we will return to Indonesia.”
“Don't run away from trouble, Ken. Finish what happened here.”
Kendrick shakes. “Nothing needs to be done again, Kiran. It's all over when we get out of the house. Let them do whatever can satisfy the anger.”
All day long the two just spent time in the room, even they missed lunch. Even at night, they both look awake.
Morning greet two people who are still in a state of mind. The other feels guilty, the other indifferent.
Kendrick snorted softly, he was no longer surprised by what Rajendra was doing. The man blocked all accounts and credit cards. However, he still looks relaxed because he has his own money even though not as much in the account given by the father.
After breakfast, the two went straight to the airport. It is certain that they will really return home only bring disappointment.
...✿✿✿...
After a 16-hour air journey, they finally arrived in Jakarta at around four in the morning.
Arriving at home, it was still evening. Everyone was still sleeping except the house assistants who were busy with their respective tasks.
They chose to rest first. After all it's Sunday, they have plenty of time to greet everyone later.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Kirana who woke up first immediately took a bath and gave up longing with her two children, also Diah and Rahma who chose to stay at home.
They looked surprised by the sudden return without notice. Diah wanted to say something, but Kirana shook her head slowly. He didn't want to talk about anything in front of his mother.
After breakfast, she told me the happy news about pregnancy. But it does not say about the actual age of the womb.
“So I'll have a sister, Ma?” Lina with her innocent eyes looked sparkling with pleasure.
“Yes, so now adek will be a big brother.”
Kirana nodded with a big smile.
“Papa Ken where, Ma?” Lina raised her voice.
“Papa still bobo, tired. Wh why? Prawns, yes.”
Rina nodded. “Kangen mommy equals papa.”
“You're not naughty, are you?”
“No dong, Ma. We are good boys.”
“Yes, right, Grandma, Oma?” Lina turned her head towards the two middle-aged who immediately nodded.
Time moves so fast. It didn't feel like the longing had been healed when they regrouped together. Lina and Lina had already gone together with Rahma to take a nap, now she was just sitting together with Diah in silence.
The middle-aged woman seemed to know what she was feeling. His soft hands clasped his hands, channeling a feeling of warmth and strength.
“What happened?” The first question escapes when a moment in silence.
“I don't know, Auntie. Everything happened so,” Kirana said with her head bowed.
“Told you, call me mama like Kendrick. No need to hesitate, Kiran.”
“Sorry.”
“What did the old man do, Kiran? Is Sisil being nice to you. Careful she's a demon.”
Kirana did not tell the whole story, only about Rajendra's rejection and about the woman in question as the future wife. If Diah heard the whole story, it was certain that the middle-aged woman would pick up her phone and curse Rajendra with the entire zoo.
Diah has no power, but she's been raising Kendrick since the red baby lost her mother. The inner bond that was established between them was as strong as a biological mother, she would not be willing if anyone would hurt her son.
Whoever it was, even if it was his own father. A man who claims to be a father, but rejects the presence of an innocent baby.
“The old man was hard. Not only was his attitude cold, his heart had even been frozen for a long time.”
“I don't know what to do, Ma. I feel guilty about making Kendrick and her father's relationship worse.”
“Not need to feel guilty, let it go. Their relationship was never even really good, like a real father and son.”
Kirana frowned in wonder. “What do you mean, Ma?”
“The reason Rajendra accepted Kendrick was simply because the man had no heir. If he had an heir, my son would never have been in the Rusady family, even though Rajendra was his real father.” Diah said with a soft word.
“Seeing the feud between Kendrick and Rajendra, I'm sure Sisil will definitely applaud. The demon woman did want a split a long time ago.”
“I have to what, Ma? Why is everything so complicated like this.”
“No need to do anything. Just live everything like running water, no need to think about it until it makes you depressed. It won't change the situation, it will only make you sick alone.”
“Kendrick is an adult, he's a responsible man. He definitely knows what to do.”
“Be a strong woman who can strengthen. I'm sure you can face it all together. Only time can soften Rajendra's heart. If time cannot soften his heart, then let time turn him soft if God takes his life first.”
Kirana laughed when she heard Diah's words. At a time like this the middle-aged woman could still throw jokes.
“Anger does not seem to be given long life.”
It is evil to say, but there is a point. Usually an angry person will only end up with high blood pressure and stroke, or have a heart attack and go straight to the funeral.
