Being Queen in the Hands of Sister-in-law
The Part 50
In the last months of her college days, Micah lived alone in Paris. There is no more Mia and Sandy because they have gone home first since the age of Mia's womb stepped on the ninth month.
They plan to move to Jakarta so that Mia is closer to the family and someone helps Mia later to take care of their twins.
Yes, after several years of marriage, God finally paid for their waiting. Two kids at once they get.
Micah imagined if he had a child. Had her marriage to Gilang been a perfect marriage, Micah would have been a mother by now.
But let's not be a mother. His own was still sealed even though Micah had been married for a year.
The panda doll sent from Gavin he didn't throw away. But he didn't touch it either. The doll was simply placed in the room where Micah had placed his belongings there. The room is also a place to study.
Today her parents came to attend her graduation tomorrow morning. Honey, Nathan can't handle it. Micah wants Nathan in his graduation photo next to him.
The man has been busy for months. Contacting Micah is just that. Suddenly Micah hesitated, was he really serious if this was the fabric of their communication?
Micah suddenly doubted the love Nathan had given him. Micah was afraid that in the end Nathan would be the same as Gavin and Gilang. He only has wounds in his life.
"Nathan why don't you come, Ma, Pa? She's busy, huh?"
Wira and Feni looked at each other. Looking for the right answer to Micah's question. "He contacted you yesterday, right? He's busy, honey. Forgive him, will you?"
In the end, Micah could only nod lethargicly. Can't do anything but surrender and accept everything.
Micah was also struggling to convince himself. The shadow of Gavin hurting him kept on flashed through his mind. Micah was afraid that it would reoccur considering his relationship with Nathan like this.
Instead of getting closer, Micah felt Nathan was getting farther and more untouchable.
The more intense contact with Micah is precisely Gavin through his Instagram DM.
The man often asked how Micah was doing today, what Micah was doing. All Gavin's routine was done even though there was no reply from Micah.
"Nathan.." he murmured softly. Micah threw his body on the bed. His eyes glanced at the photo of himself with Nathan on the wall of his room.

The day Micah had been waiting for two years had finally arrived as well. Graduation and graduation on time.
S2 title he got with a very satisfactory value at a relatively young age.
After this, Micah will enter the real world. In a sense, Micah was no longer a student. But it will soon work, build her career, and also marry Nathan if it can still be a hope.
Twice graduation, Micah was accompanied only by his parents. Hopefully this time there is Nathan, but it turns out that hope is only hope.
Yes already. Micah doesn't want to get dizzy.
He better pack some of his things that are still left in the apartment. Most of them were sent to Indonesia a week ago.
With a purpose, this time he came home not carrying many items that he thought was very troublesome.
Hours on the plane, hoping that when he gets off, Nathan will welcome him.
Think of it as a surprise for Micah after months they have not met. Even for just a phone call or video call, Nathan did not do.
Want to get angry. Nathan said he was busy with his work. The same thing that Gavin had done and ended with a fight in the mall and Micah drowned in the sea.
In matters of love, why Micah is always hurt. Is this a curse for being reckless against his grandfather's will? Ah, Micah doesn't believe that.
So what about the love story? What harm? Why is it always like this the end of the love story she's built?
Hope is hope. The only one who welcomed her arrival was Sena who now hugged her tightly.
"Oath. I'm so sorry, Lo, Micah."
"Gue is also very confused Lo."
A year ago they met. Sena deliberately took her annual leave to visit Micah. It really did not come out of the slightest cost because all the needs of Sena were borne by Micah's parents.
"Where's Boss Lo?" micah continued to make Sena speechless.
Sena shook her head. "Gue hasn't seen Nathan in months. I last saw him when I resigned four months ago. And after that, I don't hear from him anymore."
Micah was flabbergasted to hear Sena's answer which was beyond his expectations.
Now, Micah no longer knew who to ask Nathan about. The people Micah knew and Nathan knew did not want to say where Nathan was.
Is Nathan okay? Then why do people seem to hide Nathan's whereabouts from Micah? What surprise are they preparing to welcome Micah's return?
"Ma, Mum. Can I see Nathan? Papa can take me to her house?" urge Micah.
"We go home first, yes, rest. We'll see Nathan tomorrow."
"We go home first, Micah. You need a little rest. Nathan is fine. We'll see Nathan tomorrow."
There was no other choice for Micah but to obey what the Vira said.
Striking his feet in annoyance, Micah walked towards the pickup car that was waiting for them.
Not feeling, her tears are falling. What else will happen in his life after this?

Micah is ready to meet Nathan. Today he's gonna collect on his parents' promise to meet Nathan.
But, Micah had already been greeted by some people when he had just stepped down from the second floor, where his room was located.
They were Nathan's parents. Micah still remembers well how their faces were despite only seeing them in photos.
"Mikha, there's Nathan's parents" Feni said, codifying Micah to get closer.
Elisha, she was Mama Nathan, stood up and hugged Micah tightly. "It's actually prettier than the photo" Elisha said to Micah.
Micah just smiled faintly.
"This Om Bima. Nathan's father," continued Elisha introduced her husband.
Micah smiled and then greeted Bima and kissed her hand as a sign of respect.
"Where's Nathan, Om, Auntie?"
Hearing Micah mention Nathan, they cast a glance at each other. Micah was getting confused by this situation.
"Aante, Om?" micah broke their silence.
Elisha smiled. "We're meeting Nathan now."
Elisha's words made Micah smile. After yesterday Micah wondered where Nathan was, he would finally find the answer.
With Micah's spirit followed them into the car.
Micah's heart was pounding. I can't wait to meet Nathan. He missed Nathan a lot. Either the man misses Micah or not.

"Why come here?" Micah asked anxiously. The reason, Wira and Bima cars entered the public burial area.
Micah's heart was pounding. His mind is no longer. "Ma, Pa?"
"We met Nathan" Feni said slowly. Embracing Micah's shoulders and taking him out of the car.
"But why are you here? What's Nathan doing here, Ma?" ask Micah and get no answer. Micah approached Elisha. "Tante, Om, we're going to see Nathan, right? Why even come here? Nathan can't be here, right?"
Hearing Micah's various questions, Elisha could no longer hold back his tears which he had wanted to shed the first time he saw Micah.
Elisha hugged Micah tightly. "He's calmed down, honey," whispered Elisha quietly.
Micah's legs felt limp for a moment. He couldn't believe what he just heard. Empty views. No longer sparkling like when people said they would invite him to meet Nathan.
***
"He had cancer. His departure to Paris was for medical treatment, not building a business there. He moved to Singapore as his illness worsened. He just doesn't want you to see him in a weak and sick state. All he wants is to see you happy, Micah."
Micah's tears were unceasingly dripping upon hearing Bima and Elisha's explanation. Micah continued to embrace a gravestone bearing the name Nathan Wijaya.
"He's been very healthy, Auntie. Nathan can't be sick."
"He's trying to be okay in front of you, honey."
"You're so mean, Nath, just like me. Am I wrong with you until you're this bad as me?"
"You promised to bed me when I came home from Paris. Now I'm paying you a promise, Nath."
Micah couldn't stop his tears. He wished Nathan was here, hugging him as usual. She misses Nathan's warm embrace.
"Nathan... I just wish this was all a dream. I immediately got up and could hug you again" Micah muttered softly before Micah lost his consciousness.
