Albern and Lily
Reasons For All Anger

"Darling ...." Carissa could only mutter in a very soft tone. He looked at Evan with a chest that started to rumble. The glint of anger in her husband's netra made Carissa's heart begin to be filled with fear.

"You've just arrived, rest a little, then we'll pick Lily up together" Carissa said again with all her courage.

Evan exhaled a rough breath, then stepped past from the front of Carissa still with a hardened face. Carissa's hurry followed her husband. Tenyata Evan took their own car keys from where the object was usually placed. Then he walked back to the main door of their house.

"Dear, please don't do this. It is not good to drive a vehicle if you are angry. Please calm yourself first." Carissa grabbed Evan's arm, trying to hold her husband.

Evan stopped, then turned to look at Carissa.

"I'm angry? It's true that I'm angry. You know why I feel so angry now, Carissa? It's because my wife, who I trust so much, is hiding something important from me right now" Evan said.

Carissa was stunned with an unkind expression.

"What do you mean?" ask her a bit.

"Not pretend not to understand. You gave Lily permission to have a relationship with Albern without my knowledge. And until I'm in front of you, you're gonna keep covering it up."

"I ...." Carissa was at a loss for words. He looked at Evan in fear as he swallowed his saliva with some distress.

"Well what the Brylee family gave you, so you can lie to your own husband like this" added Evan with increasing sarcasm.

Carissa immediately shook her head firmly.

"You think too much. I didn't mean to lie to you. I was just waiting for the right time to tell you. I can't bear to see Lily grieving because we don't respect her relationship with Albern. They love each other ...."

"Are you aware of what you've done, Carissa?" cut Evan off before Carissa finishes her words.

Carissa seemed clueless as to what Evan had just said.

"What have I done? I just want to see my daughter happy. Albern loves her, Zaya and Aaron also accept Lily with open arms. What's the problem?"

"What's the problem? Of course Albern himself was the problem. He's not an ordinary man. Allowing Lily to have a relationship with him was tantamount to plunging her into a bottomless abyss. Lily's still so young, don't you think that even a little bit of pressure from being on Albern's side would have left her devastated?"

Carissa shook her head with slightly interlocked eyebrows.

"You always do, always worrying for no reason" Carissa murmured to Evan.

"Worry for no reason?" Evan looked even more angry. He then pulled out his smartphone and fiddled with it for a while, then showed it to Carissa.

Still a little confused, Carissa took the phone, then looked at what was on the phone screen. Instantly the eyes of Carissa buyak when reading some headlines of online news articles that are trending today.

There are still a few more titles in the article related to the surprise announcement from Albern at his company party last night, but Carissa could not read more because the writing was getting cruel and baseless. His hands suddenly became trembling with anger. How can the online media write something bad about her daughter like this, as if Lily is a materialistic girl who deliberately teases Albern for money.

Evan immediately retrieves his phone from Carissa's hand. While his wife is still glued to the face pias.

"Now do you understand why I don't like Lily close to Albern, Carissa? Everything happened exactly as I was worried. I'm sure Lily doesn't know right now that many people are blaspheming her, otherwise, I'm worried about her psychic condition. I hope he doesn't find out, but it looks like it's gonna be hard."

Carissa was silent with a face that looked very not good. I don't know what's on his mind right now.

"If our family is as good as Brylee's, maybe I don't really care about their relationship. If they continue to be in a relationship, then the party who will continue to be suppressed and harmed here is our own daughter. He was very young and innocent, even sometimes still like to cry for trivialities. What if he knew right now that almost everyone was talking about it, and most of those people were looking down on him. You definitely can't imagine how much he's hurt." Evan's voice sounded lower than before.

Carissa let out a sigh, then ventured to look towards Evan.

"If this is the case, what should we do?" ask Carissa then in a soft tone.

"Of course the first thing we have to do now is take Lily home. We have to give him some understanding if at the moment he has to focus more on his education and forget Albern" Evan replied.

Carissa fell silent and digested her husband's words. Asking Lily to forget Albern, is it possible?

"Lily's our only daughter, Carissa. If psychic Lily is distracted from not being strong standing next to Albern, Albern will have no shortage of women to replace Lily, but we'll be sorry for the rest for having let our daughter be ruined."

Carissa's eyes suddenly became teary.

"I ... I was really unthinkable to that extent, he said softly in a somewhat trembling voice.

"I'm sorry .. I should have talked about this earlier with you. I'm sorry ...," Carissa said again in a regretful tone.

Evan sighed while closing his eyes. Actually he was still angry at his wife, but he could not blame Carissa completely either. Carissa's affection as a mother had made her do something that could have put her own daughter down.

"That's it."" Evan finally took his wife into his arms.

"I'm just asking you in the future to trust me more. If you want Lily to be happy, so do I, Carissa. It's just that there are situations that must be addressed with logic, not just by using feelings," Evan said while gently rubbing his wife's back.

"Yes, I'll trust you completely. Sorry if I had time to think that you were a bit unreasonable" Carissa murmured.

Evan broke his embrace, and looked at his wife.

"We'll go get Lily. Don't let this problem drag on and make our daughter hurt even more later" Evan said in a softer tone.

Carissa returned Evan's gaze and nodded slowly. It might be true that she should trust her husband more from now on.
