Attracted By The Moon
Chapter 19: Kilas masalalu

"What..?" The moon is upset, isn't this crazy? A father should not say that to his daughter.

"Did you say the wrong thing?" With a casual smile, Raul showed a very disgusting face to the Moon.

He came out of his daughter's room, not knowing what kind of affection he was trying to apply to the Moon. The Moon is really uncomfortable.

That night, the moon didn't even leave the room. He locked himself in, waiting for his mother to come home. When Raul calls for dinner, the Moon is reluctant.

He was just crying, it was embarrassing for him. After a long time trying to think positive, finally Moon concluded that his father's actions included abuse.

[My father did something unreasonable again this time. He came into my room when I was just getting a shower. I should how?] He wrote on an account called Baraspati, they were close enough. But not dating.

[Maybe he doesn't know you're taking a shower.] Reply to Baraspati's account which is none other than Arkana.

[You think it's just a coincidence?]

[I think so, there's no way your father would behave like that. A father cannot be rude to his son.]

[Then what about yesterday? When he hugged me suddenly from behind? When he wiped my lips with his fingers? He even said there were no parts of my body that he had seen. I was so scared.]

[Don't you say he's been doing that a lot since you were a kid? She could still think of you as her little princess. But just in case, start building boundaries with it.]

[It was harassment, right?] The moon wants to make sure that her views of her father are not wrong.

[A father cannot be so in his own flesh and blood. But there are also things like that, be careful. If you're not comfortable with her attitude, talk to your mother. Ask for his help, you can't keep this alone, before it's too far away.]

True too, so far the Moon has never told his discomfort to the mother. He's gonna try to talk to his mom about this.

The next day, Saras came home from out of town. Moon ventured to tell all this according to Baraspati's advice.

"What's up, son?" Saras was curious, suddenly the Moon invited him to speak with four eyes.

"Mom, I'm not comfortable with you... I'm not a kid anymore, but he always touches me, kisses me, even yesterday he came into my room while I was still wearing a towel."

Saras laughed at the words, he felt his son had really grown into a teenage girl now.

"Moon, even when I was in college, I still slept with your grandfather a lot. Your father behaved that way so you wouldn't lack affection, because mom is rarely home so your dad made sure you didn't lose our affection."

"But mom, dad's not like grandpa. He's overreacting, I'm even starting to get scared when I'm alone with him."

This is probably called puberty. Where someone started to have an awkward feeling towards his parents, Saras thought it was natural. At the age of the Moon he had felt like that, awkward, embarrassed. But since his mother's death, Saras is back close to his father.

"Son, the name of his parents must have always wanted to devote abundant affection to his son. Later when you become a parent you must feel the same."

Moon's fear is like being held back, maybe what her mother said was true. Perhaps he is going through a phase of puberty in which he is uncomfortable with the opposite sex even though it is his father.

The days passed as usual. Now Moon and the owner of the Baraspati account is dating. Comfort and mutual filling make the two decide to establish a relationship.

One afternoon, when his mother had not yet returned. Moon is cooking instant noodles in her kitchen. She was frying eggs for the topping. But things beyond reason returned to his father.

Raul approached the Moon and stroked his daughter slowly. "What are you cooking, baby?" his whisper, while roaring the body part that is tempting it.

The surprised moon smashed the hot spatula into his father's face. "Dad..! stop over. This is too much!"

Raul's cheeks blistered red, he stared intently at his daughter's face. "How dare you be disrespectful to me?"

"Kill you too I dare!" The moon took a knife and pointed it at Raul.

"Why did you do that?! Why is! Dad's brain is completely possessed by demons!"

"Stop calling me dad! I'm not your father!"

"What..?" Both hands of the Moon were trembling. The fact that his father was completely insane made his entire body boil.

"You're not my son! Your mother never told you who you really are? You're the bastard son you made with your mother's ex-boyfriend!" Raul took off his mask today, he really couldn't bear to keep everything to himself.

While still in college, Saras dated a senior. They are in secret contact without the knowledge of the family.

After graduating from college, Saras broke off his relationship with his girlfriend. The man's parents were against their relationship, Saras who was from an ordinary family, while the man's parents from the family were.

The man did not want to let Saras go, but Saras insisted. He didn't want it just because women seemed like the man's future was ruined.

Long story short, a month passed since their relationship ran aground. Saras was never in contact with the man again.

But the disaster happened, she was pregnant while entering the lawyer's exam. He was confused as to how, holding his ex to account would only complicate things. He will be humiliated by the man's family.

Saras ventured to tell his father that. The father was furious, he told Saras to abort his womb but Saras did not want to.

Because he already boasts the child who graduated with the best grades, his father also sought a man who wanted to marry Saras. To cover up the disgrace, to cover up the disgrace of himself who had already boasted Saras. What do people say if they know the only princess is pregnant out of wedlock.

Meet Raul with his father Saras, they were friends during High School. Raul has liked Saras for a long time, and he uses this opportunity to have Saras. He is willing to marry Saras, accept what is and promise to love the child in Saras' womb wholeheartedly.

Years passed, it turns out accepting loved ones as they are is not as easy as words. Raul feels Saras never loved him, he feels Saras just moving on without any love for him.

The intention to love the Moon as a child begins to change. Disappointment made it dark hearted, and began to put a taste to the young girl. The girl, who was born as a baby, hoped to become a bond between her and Saras. Now the girl grows into a beautiful girl who makes herself have a purpose in life.

-

"So I'm not dad's daughter?" The moon doesn't believe that. Is that why Raul always acts c4bul? Because he's not his flesh blood?

"If you dare complain to your mother. Then I'll dismantle your disgusting mother!"

He threatened the Moon to destroy his mother's beautiful life. Careers, relationships, and everything is doomed if the disgusting mass is revealed. And the Moon does not want to be the destroyer of the mother's life for the second time, after her presence.

Since then the moon has decided to leave the house. It would have been better if he had never met that crazy man. There will come a time, he returns to the house with handcuffs to end the life of the crazy man with the title of father.
