Being Queen in the Hands of Sister-in-law
The Part 28
Pov Cross
Regrets always come at the end.
The love and affection that began to grow in Gilang's heart was no longer meaningful. Glad to regret why only now did that love grow in his heart? Why was it that in the moment of separation before his eyes he could only feel love and affection for Micah?
Any attempt to get Micah to drop his divorce lawsuit always fails. Micah remained in his decision. Choose apart.
One year ago, his parents asked Gilang to marry Micah. They all knew that Micah was Maulida's sister. The woman whose life was destroyed by Gilang.
"I don't want to, Pa. Papa knows I'm dating Viona," Gilang refused at the time.
"Mikha is much better than Viona."
"Pa, Papa knows my past with Maulida. What if they know?"
"They won't know if you want to obey Papa's wishes. Papa will protect you as long as you want to run your grandfather's will. And one more, leave Viona!"
"It can't be that, Pa." Gilang remained steadfast while maintaining Viona. Their relationship is also far enough. Gilang also loves Viona very much despite her status as a widow.
"good. Do what you want. But don't blame Papa if tomorrow or the day after tomorrow you've been in jail for your mistake to Maulida."
"Where can it be like that, Pa? They have no proof of my closeness to Maulida. I was also not involved in Uli's death directly. And it can't be reported."
"Papa himself will report you to the rapist case**n to Maulida."
"Where can you, Pa? We were 'it_"
"Together enjoy?" anton quickly. I feel tired of facing Gilang's attitude. But as a parent, he still wants his son to be better.
Therefore all kinds of ways he will do while it can educate Gilang.
"In Papa's hands, anything can happen. Including imprisoning you."
"Papa?"
"Why not?" answer Anton lightly. "The choice is in your hands. Leave Viona and marry Micah, or go to jail! This is the last time Papa protects you. If you act again, Papa won't care anymore."
Gilang could only clench his hands tightly as his papa left just like that. Leaving a difficult choice for Gilang.

The marriage really happened. Somehow the story of the girl was willing to accept an arranged marriage between herself and Gilang, Gilang did not want to know.
From the beginning married without love, without intention, without interest. Gilang also lived it half-heartedly.
Gilang did not care about the college children he married. Micah comes home at what time Gilang doesn't care. Micah ate or Gilang didn't care. Micah goes home or Gilang doesn't care. Micah's sick health he doesn't care. Anything about Micah, Gilang doesn't care.
That evil!
All of Micah's needs were indeed borne by Gilang. They range from Micah's pocket money, monthly money, to Micah's tuition.
Gilang does not care about being used or not the money given from him. The most important thing is that Gilang transfers all of that every Sunday to Micah's account.
Otherwise because his account was being watched by Anton, Gilang would not have done that either.
It was better for Gilang to use the money to pamper Viona than to be given to Micah.
"Lo's blink of an eye. Remember, she's a man's wife!"
"Kayak Lo thinks he's his wife."
Gilang laughed sarcastically at Gavin's words.
Gilang had long known that Gavin secretly admired Micah. Honey, Gilang is married to Micah, not to him.
If only he could, Gilang also hoped that Gavin would marry Micah. But unfortunately Gavin is not the grandson of Suryo. And unfortunately, Gilang is the only grandson of Suryo who is male.
"Take it if you want!"
Without a second thought, Gavin immediately threw a punch at Gilang's lips. "Bad, Lo! He's not something you can give people."
Gilang smiled cynically. "But Lo wants to, right, if I give him to Lo?"
"If I could win her heart, Lo would be a mess."
"No way!"
Like licking his own spit, Gilang now truly regretted losing Micah.
Gavin manages to take all the love Micah has until there is no chance for Gilang to fix everything.

"Why?" The shock could not be hidden from her face when Viona said that she would resign.
"You know why I am. Mas Damar doesn't want me to work. And I should have done this a long time ago."
Since the night that the two were caught in the villa room during the gathering, Viona's attitude had indeed changed drastically.
He kept more distance from Gilang. Adjacent to Gilang is just a job, and Viona strives to remain professional.
Gilang doesn't know what his father did to Viona until Viona changes to him.
All I know is that Viona is getting married again soon.
Viona's wedding invitation has been in Gilang's hands since the week before Viona resigned.
Glad to feel lost? Sure oes. But not a sense of loss in the form of heartbreak left married. Gilang only felt the loss of a professional secretary like Viona. It works neat and satisfying. It even satisfied Gilang in his bed.
Ah, Gilang doesn't want to remember it anymore, actually.
Perhaps it was because his heart had already written Micah's name by now. That's why he looks ordinary when Viona say goodbye out of his room and start cleaning his things.
"Thank you for your hard work, Vi," Gilang said before Viona left.
Viona nodded and smiled. "Together, Lang. Nice to work with you" replied Viona. "You're the one I love all the time, Lang," Viona continued in her heart.

Gilang's last attempt to ask Micah back turned out to be unsuccessful as well. Dozens of flower stalks and apologies with banners carried by helicopters did not make Micah melt.
But, at least Gilang is grateful that Micah no longer speaks loudly to him. His attitude slowly softened and seemed to be trying to reconcile with Gilang.
Returning from Micah's campus, Gilang decided to go to Maulida's tomb.
Nearly two hours Gilang sat there just to look at the gravestone bearing the name Maulida. He also regretted all the things he had done.
If that day he does not run away, there will be no increase in people who are hurt because of his actions.
Honey, time can't be played back. All that remains is a regret that will never have an end.
***
Gilang went back to his house which he had spent nine months with Micah.
Gilang's eyes were closed remembering all Micah's movements in this house.
Micah who was cooking though Gilang never ate it until Micah was tired and no longer cooked for him.
The sound of Micah's footsteps still rang out so clearly in Gilang's ears.
Even the wedding photos of the two are still on the wall of the living room.
Gilang regret. Deeply sorry.
Hope to be happy with Micah is now another prayer, may Micah be happy even if not with him.
Gilang packed all his things. He will also leave the house. Didn't want to stay there because it holds a lot of memories about Micah.

"Are you sure of your decision, Lang?"
Gilang nodded for sure. "Related, Pa. If I don't say anything now I say goodbye."
"Yes already. Take good care of yourself."
"Yes, Pa."
He put his suitcase in the car.
This time he decided to leave. Even at the time of her divorce with Micah was not yet decided.
It is certain Gilang will not be present at every trial that will be conducted. It could also help to have the decision immediately given, according to Micah's wishes.
The iron bird belonging to the famous airline in Indonesia has brought its passengers up to altitude. Including the Gilang that is in it.
