"You're strong, you're an amazing woman. God's way of maturing His servant is never wrong, the test God has given you is in your capacity as a chosen man" Kinara said.
"If I bear it, suffer the same suffering as you. I can't be as strong as you, Carissa. Maybe I won't be able to make it this far." Kinara whispered softly in Carissa's ear which answered a slow nod. Carissa tried to believe that what Kinara said was the truth.
There was no response but a nod of the head, not a word out of Carissa's mouth. Just the sound of her crying getting louder, her shoulders to the point of shaking with an irregular breath.
"Patience, Carissa." Kinara stroked Carissa's head. "I believe you can get through it all."
Currently the position of Kinara and Dika facing each other, flanking Carissa who was hugging Kinara. Dika threw a glance towards Kinara, he stared fixed his wife.
You yourself have a great deal of suffering, but you can encourage others. You are! What are you as tough as you? Did we meet at the wrong time, Kinara? inner Dika.
Gradually the crying voice began to disappear, Carissa's breath was more regular. Carissa let go of her embrace and chose to hold Kinara's hand.
"Thank you, Kinara. All this time I could not share my grief with anyone other than Dika," Carissa said followed by a faint smile.
"I'm not doing anything, just being a good listener to you." Kinara smiled. "Alright, now take your medicine." Kinara moved her head pointing at the medicine bottle on the table.
"Why do I feel your attitude is more mature than mine, hey I'm one year older than you."
"Shall I call you, brother?" Kinara mocked, Carissa laughed until the row of white teeth was seen.
"Ken will regret letting go of a woman like you, Kinara." Carissa scoops Kinara's fried rice. "Well, now open your mouth, for hearing the outpouring of my heart you haven't even finished your breakfast."
"No, I can eat alone." Kinara tried to grab Carissa's spoon. Carissa had her body back. "No, if you don't eat I won't let you go to college."
"There's a heavy threat to you, Carissa." Kinara smiled. "All right." Opening his mouth and a scoop of fried rice had already landed in Kinara's mouth. "You satisfied?"
"Of course."
"That's enough. Now take your medicine, Carissa," said Dika suddenly who made a smile on Kinara's lips instantly disappear.
"Can I take my medicine off, baby?" Carissa grabbed Dika's arm and struggled spoiled.
Kinara turned her gaze, her focus had already moved on the fried rice plate whose contents had already reduced.
"Holiday?" Dika grabbed Carissa's chin and raised her face. The two look at each other. "You think school has a day off?" His hands moved around the top of Carissa's head.
"You're so stingy! A day off is not allowed." Carissa pressed her lips.
"You should take your medicine, baby." Dika placed a thumb on Carissa's face and stroked it gently.
"I beg you, well, I don't need to take medicine. Today only.” Carissa grabbed Dika's arm again and shook her.
“Speaking what the hell.” Dika placed her thumb on Carissa's lips and stroked gently there. Kinara just lowered her head.
“Do not argue anymore. Take your medicine, Rissa. You ‘kan know your health is very important to me.” Dika took the medicine bottles one by one, took out the contents and placed them on a small plate.
“Well, now drink.” Dika thrust a plate filled with drugs at Carissa who greeted a forced smile on her face.
“You are good at seducing, baby.”
What am I still here for? Am I watching a romantic scene in a drama? inner Kinara.
“Anu, sorry but it looks like I have to leave soon.” Kinara got up from the chair and put up her sling bag.
“Ah, sorry, Kinara. You saw my childish behavior,” said Carissa.
"Oh, that doesn't matter." Kinara shook her hand.
"Do I look too much?" ask Carissa.
"No, where is possible. It was only natural, the lovers spoiled each other. You guys should be more friendly than this." Kinara looked excited to say it.
This immediately made Dika angry, he raised the corner of his eyebrow. Dika increasingly wanted to know to the point where Kinara could pretend to be strong.
"I'll go first, Dad." Kinara stroked Carissa's shoulder. "Take the medicine." Kinara smiled.
"Wait a minute, Kinara." Carissa put the medicine-filled plate on the table. "There's something important I want to talk to you about." Carissa grabbed Kinara by the hand and guided her to sit down.
"What?" Kinara was already sitting next to Carissa.
What else do you want to talk about, Carissa? It's good he's gone, don't block anymore, Dika's inner.
Dika grabbed a glass of water and sipped it slowly.
"I'm going to marry, Dika," Carissa said.
Uhuk ...! Dika choked to hear the sentence that Carissa said was about their wedding plans.
Kinara was silent, long enough. Dika stared intently, Dika was curious what reaction Kinara would show.
"Good, it's better to get married than to date for too long" Kinara said.
Dika rounded his eyes, staring dislikefully at Kinara.
Why are you looking at me like that? Inikan want you? Marry Carissa, get rid of me immediately, and test the limits of my strength, Inner Kinara.
"May all go well, I pray that God bless your love." Kinara swallowed her saliva. "The good of your heart will lead you to true happiness. Believe me," Kinara said as she nodded her head.
Kinara shifted her body, turning her face for a few seconds. No matter how strong a woman is, deep in her heart there is a feeling of unwillingness when it comes to sharing her husband with others.
Although there is no love in their marriage, the bond that binds the two is not a bond that can be released that easily.
If you really want to choose Carissa, then you have to let me go, you can't have both, Inner Kinara.
"Can you help me prepare everything, Kinara? Can you be my sidekick for the wedding, let Ken be my best man." Carissa stroked Kinara's shoulder.
Kinara bit her lip. His eyes began to glaze over.
"When are your wedding plans?" ask Kinara.
"Hmmm ... when, dear?" Carissa switched to rocking Dika's arm.
"Quickly, but let me take care of everything, ok! Don't say anything to Mamah" said Dika, who sounded very serious.
Carissa scrunched her forehead. "Why?"
"That's because."
That's because Mamah won't allow it, you don't want others to know how evil you are, Dika. So selfish! inner Kinara.
"That's because ...," said Dika cut off.
"That's because there's still something she needs to take care of, Carissa. Just giving advice, don't be greedy!" kinara's exclamation sounded angry, Carissa was confused. It was clearly visible on his face. "You can't have both, you have to let go of one of them!"
Kinara almost lost control, Dika ignited a fire that had been extinguished in Kinara's heart, then the fire would flare up destroying anything. Especially Dika.
"Tu .. wait, Kinara. A.. What do you mean?" ask Carissa.
"Why? Why do you speak, Carissa?" Kinara asked back.
Dika is panicking. She got up from the chair and hugged Carissa, currently Carissa's head was leaning on Dika's stomach.
"Quiet, baby. Kinara was just kidding." Dika stroked the top of Carissa's head. "He was just kidding." Dika looked furiously at Kinara.
Wh why? Why do I always have to be wrong? Isn't this all your fault?! Why are you so mean, Dika?! inner Kinara.
Kinara bit her lips hard. A clear thread dripped from the corner of his eye. He rubbed his face roughly and stared hatefully at Dika.
Carissa could not see what the two people were doing, because right now her head was drowning in Dika's stomach. It was a pity that Carissa could not watch the war of gazes that Dika and Kinara had fought, a war that had many hidden meanings.
You owe me a lot, Dika. Later you have to pay it many times, Inner Kinara.
Kinara clasped Carissa's hand, stroking gently there. "I'm sorry, Carissa" he said.
Already released from Dika's embrace. "What are you saying, Kinara? Being greedy? Let go of one of them, what do you mean? What does Dika have to ... love la ... in?" Carissa gasped for breath, her breathing began to falter. There was a movement where Carissa pressed the left chest. His face was pale and his temples began to sweat.
"No, Carissa. Nah! Nothing, Dika just loves you. You ... You're the only woman Dika has. Please calm yourself." Kinara stroked Carissa's head.
Dika poured a glass of water with trembling hands. "Drink, baby." Dika handed the glass. Carissa tried to grab it, but her hand shook violently.
"Give me!" Kinara forcefully took the glass and brought it closer to Carissa's lips.
"Drink, Carissa. Once you calm down I'll explain everything, "persuade Kinara.
Little by little Carissa took a sip of the water that Kinara was proposing.
"Good, take a breath and pass slowly" Kinara said, and Carissa actually followed.
"Goodle. Do it again."
A split minute his breathing rhythm started to normalize and the tremors in his body gradually disappeared.
I'm sorry, Carissa, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you, God am I evil? I just want to get away from him, from that demon guy, why is it this hard? inner Kinara.
"Now explain it to me? Do you know anything? Is Dika cheating?" Carissa immediately asked Kinara the question as soon as her condition improved.
Kinara took a deep breath before opening her mouth. "Nothing! If he's never cheated on you, he's only loyal to you, Carissa."
"Don't lie, Kinara!" There was anger from Carissa's words. "If Dika doesn't have another lover, why would you tell her that."
"That's because of Ken, he has another lover but won't let go of me. He loves other women but keeps tying me up. Ken, Ken never loved me, but kept me locked up with him." Kinara sobbed, that was the painful truth. Only, the name that came out of Kinara's mouth should not be Ken, but Dika.
Glac ...! Dika was silent, there was no movement whatsoever.
"Oh my God, why is Ken so bad?!"
"I'm sorry for not being able to control my feelings until it involves you and Dika, I just want to advise Dika not to act evil like Ken." Kinara wiped away the rough tears that fell on her cheeks.
"I'm sorry, Kinara." Carissa gently stroked Kinara's shoulder.
"No, it's not your fault. It's my fault for getting carried away." Kinara smiled, she reached into the bag and took out a small glass. "I have to go to college." Kinara stared at the shadow of her face from the reflection of the glass and cleared away the remains of tears.
"Are you sure you want to go to college?" ask Carissa to make sure.
"Of course." Kinara smiled.
Rather than having to be inside here that's like a cursed prison! inner Kinara.
"I'll go first, Dad." Kinara got up from the chair, tidying up her appearance. "Get well soon, Carissa. Trust me Dika only love you.” Smile widely.
“careful, Kinara.”
“Sip.” Kinara gave her thumb.
