BEING THE WIFE OF HIS BROTHER-IN-LAW
CHAPTER 99. OUT OF LOVE

That morning, Rama went straight to the office quickly. He even missed the breakfast that Kian had prepared. The grandfather who had been sitting at the dining table realized something was wrong with the attitude of his only grandson. The intimacy that has always been seen from the couple is in fact now turned cold and seem indifferent.

"Are you guys in trouble?" ask Grandpa Bimo after Rama leaves. He could no longer bear to ask Kian. The woman looked down.

"Lian," call the grandfather again. Kian.

"Are you guys in trouble? Why are you acting so strange? Rama came home late last night. And now he's gone without breakfast. Even without greeting and kissing you as usual. What's going on?" Ask my grandfather again.

"Mas Rama. mas Rama was angry with me, Kek," said Kian in the end.

"angry? Angry why? Did you make a mistake?"

"Yes Cake. I made a very fatal mistake. That's why Mas Rama is so mad at me."

"But, whatever the wife is, you should be able to talk about it. Not by keeping quiet like this."

"I've said everything, Cake. I explained everything."

"Then? How did Rama react?"

"He was just silent. I don't know if he's listening to me or not. Because at that time Mas Rama's position was behind me," explained Kian. Grandpa Bimo breathed a heavy breath.

"He must have heard it. Grandpa sure. You just calm down. Let him investigate everything you've told him. If what you're explaining is the truth, then you don't have to be afraid. Grandpa knows who Grandpa's granddaughter is. He would be very wise in responding to everything."

Kian nodded. She continued her breakfast in silence. His heart kept hoping that what his grandfather said was true. And he also hopes that if Rama will forgive him after he knows what really happened.

"I want to talk to you!" rama said firmly when he met Samir. 

Samir was a little confused by his friend. Rama came early in the morning and said he wanted to talk to her. Samir also saw the sharp and frightening eyes of his superior. Is this about work? Did he make mistakes in his work? 

"Follow me!" rama said again and walked into his room.

"Okay sir" Samir replied as he followed his superior.

Arriving in the room, Rama sat in his chair in silence. While Samir was still standing in front of the man, looking at him, and also wondering what this was.

Rama looked at his personal assistant.

"What's up, sir?" ask Samir.

"Tell me honestly. Did you first meet my wife at Amarta's Group's corporate birthday party, you already knew that the woman beside me was Kian and not Lian?" ask Rama.

Rama who understood with the doubt being felt by Samir, he spoke again.

"You don't have to worry. I already know everything. And Kian told me to ask you."

Without hesitation, Rama also told everything that happened between him and the two twin girls. How he met with Lian, until he heard Lian's words in the hospital. Rama also told Kian's explanation last night. Samir was surprised not to play when he knew all that happened.

"What do you feel?" Instead of answering, Samir asked back.

"What do you mean?" rama did not understand.

"Yes, you're right. From the beginning I knew that the one living with you was Kian, not Lian. The one who married you was Lian, not Kian. And now when you listen to the two different opinions of the two twin women, what do you feel? Where does your heart trust more? Lian's story or Kian's story?" ask Samir. Rama was silent for a moment. He breathed a heavy breath.

"I don't know" Rama replied in the end. Samir smiled wryly. He sat in the chair in front of the boss.

"You've been living with Kian for almost a year. You are even now waiting for the growth of prospective children in the stomach Kian. And when you listen to what Lian has just gotten close to you in two days, then you can't choose between them?"

"You know, I doubt your love for Kian" Samir said.

Rama remained silent. He listened to the opinions of his friends carefully. Yes, this time the man before him was not his subordinate but his best friend. That's why Rama does not want to be arrogant in taking a stand.

"Samir, can I ask you something?" ask Rama.

"Please" replied Samir.

"I know that you love Kian very much. But why is it that when you find out that Kian disguised himself as Lian and became my pretended wife, you still give her support. Yes, although I know lately you are trying to change your attitude to Kian, but I also know, apart from that you are still there for Kian. Even you also believe all the explanations from Kian about the reason he did this without any hesitation"

"Love." said Samir briefly. Makes Rama frown in confusion. Samir continued his words again.

"Because the love I have for Kian is very sincere and very big. That's why I believe him. If we love someone, we must trust them with all our heart. Besides, I've been friends with Kian and Lian since we were kids. A little bit I know how Kian's character is and how Lian's character is. Although they are twins but they have different and even opposite traits. That's why I've always loved Kian."

Rama was silent. There was a pressing pain in his heart when he heard that Samir still loved Kian even now. Rama is not willing if there are other men who fall in love with Kian. In her deepest heart, she still admitted that Kian was hers and only hers. Regardless of his status as his wife or not but Rama does not want to lose the woman.

"If I were in your position, I would definitely immediately believe what Kian said. But if your love and trust in the woman who has been with you is still very thin, you can do a typical investigation of the Amarta's Group family" said Samir firmly.
