That afternoon Rendi waited for Caitlyn until the wall clock showed at 6 pm local time. Lean had been up and meeting him since the phone call two hours ago.
However, I don't know why that pregnant woman just showed up now. Surely, he took a bath and ate first before meeting Rendi. It was impossible for Lean to let Caitlyn wake up and meet her foster sister on an empty stomach.
“Hai, Brother. Sorry for making Kak Rendi long wait.“ Caitlyn was very unwell.
The beautiful woman glanced at her husband with a pouting face accompanied by annoyance. If not for his actions, Caitlyn had been able to meet Rendi since this afternoon. Lean responded to his wife's gaze with a single blink that made Caitlyn no longer able to get angry.
“No problem, Miss. Until tomorrow I am ready to wait.” Rendi was a little joking and sure enough, it managed to make Caitlyn smile.
“Can be aja, Kak.” He and Lean then chose to sit on the sofa opposite Rendi. But this, yeah, brother. Please change the call, brother, yeah. Call Caitlyn or Lily. No need to use frills miss all. Formal, Brother. Not cool, ah,” protest Caitlyn does not like.
Rendi was so bad at this one request. He still remembers Lean's threat from captivity last week. How could Rendi dare to just mention the name of the woman? Especially in front of her husband? Well, Caitlyn was just setting him up.
The man scratched his nape while glancing at the couple alternately. He was confused as to what answer. While Lean was just silent did not respond to the words of his wife.
“Emm, that is, I .. I cannot, Miss. I don't deserve to call like Miss asked. Sorry, I.” Finally, Rendi gave a reason that is what it is.
Caitlyn clucked. “What's wrong with my request? What is inappropriate? I don't deserve to be your sister? Oh, mercy. It's so bad my fate.” Caitlyn had a sad face. “Entah where my biological parents are. My foster father left me, and now even my foster sister doesn't want to admit me. Cassian once was my life.” Caitlyn looked down sad. It's really sad and it's not made up.
Yes, it may be a factor of pregnancy so the mood is very sensitive and likes to change at any time. He will feel happy, intermittently he will be angry at Lean, intermittently he feels bored, sad, and so on.
Rendi and Lean went awry. Actually Lean strongly objected because after all Rendi was not that close to his wife and they only knew each other after Lean revealed all her secrets. However, he had to grant the request of the beautiful woman who was pregnant. Whatever it is Lean will fulfill as long as she can always see a sweet smile on the beautiful face of the wife.
“Fulfill the request, Ren. Do what he wants,” breaks up Lean in the end.
Rendi was startled and a little hesitant as she looked at Lean's expressionless face at all. The handsome man's face looked flat.
“Ren?” call Lean resuscitated him because the man looked dreamy.
“Ah, yes. All righty! I ... I just call Lily as desired, Miss,” said Rendi a little unpleasant.
Lean and Rendi were made to laugh because of the pregnant woman's speech and expression.
“Ya, yes. Alright, Lily.” Rendi said while nodding.
Caitlyn can smile now. “Well, that's the cake from earlier.” Then a little paused, after which he continued the next request. “Em, so what about my offer that time in the hospital, brother? Already Brother think, ‘kan?” tanyakanya.
Rendi nodded. “Already, and I decided to stay at my father's house only,” he replied steadily.
Caitlyn's pretty face turned flat hearing that answer. Deep down, he was very hopeful that Rendi would accept his request. Lean was a little surprised. He thought the same as his wife. She thought Rendi was so fond of being able to live in their mansion that was so big.
“Why, Brother?” asked Caitlyn in a soft tone not as cheerful as before.
“Em, gini, Ly. I just wanted to stay there so I could feel close to my dad. I also want to improve my life so that I'm happy to see me who is much better. I ... I regret leaving my father's house. Although the place was seedy, but .. I grew up there, Ly. I would feel much better if I stayed there.” Rendi gave a very touching reason to Caitlyn and also Lean.
Raut Caitlyn was suddenly sad not because of Rendi's rejection, but because of the man's reason that reminded Caitlyn of the figure of her adoptive father who loved her so much.
He looked at Lean beside him. “Tomorrow I want to go there. Can, well, Al.”
Oh, sh*it! Your request why is it always the things I don't like, baby ...?
While Rendi was relieved because Caitlyn did not force it.
Finally, I was able to do her father-in-law's request ....
