EMBRACE YOU: Presence & Poison
Episode 216's

...

But instead of Bayu continuing the words to calm me down, he just smiled broadly and his sparkling gaze looked at me attentively. “Less than thirty minutes and I've seen twice my wife furiously defend me. I really like it. Let me remember this angry face of yours for good.”

“Do not be silly! Now tell me what his name is? Address where? What's the job?”

“Yes, Boo. You want to terrorize him and his family? That's not good.” Bayu was still calm but I was still very angry.

“Dia—dia outrageous!! Oh—do! What's important now is I want to see what kind of bruises? Why didn't Stefan's doctor check it out? Have you had a CT scan?”

“Honey Boo, isn't this too—aggressive?”

“What?”

“It's still hospital, how about someone suddenly come in?” The whisper of Bayu sounded teasing to me but I ignored it and my hands were again busy forcing me to unbutton his shirt while this man was also trying to hold my hand.

“Boo, can't wait until home?”

“It's a punishment because you just told me!”

“Punishment? I'd rather have his sentence done in our room.”

“Do not tease me constantly, quickly take off his clothes! I want to see!”

“With a heavy heart I must refuse to do it here.”

“What the hell are you talking about? Quickly open!”

“Ta—but Boo, someone else could have caught us!”

“Then let them catch us.”

“Wow, you look so excited, baby. If you look like this, you look sexy.”

“Do not switch the conversation!”

“Alright I relented, we better quickly do.”

“From now on you keep saying things that make other people misunderstand.”

“And what exactly is that misunderstanding, Boo?”

“Kau—”

BRAAKKK!!

“Yes my brother Bayu!! Brother Icha!! Sorry, this can't be allowed Alisya! This concerns the matter of politeness in public place—”

I was a little surprised by the door that was broken down from the outside following the voice of Alisya from the doorway. Other than Alisya, there was Zac standing behind her, both of them staring at us in shock and silently sculpting.

I immediately moved away from Bayu and returned to sitting upright, when I saw Bayu who was grunting while tidying up his clothes, I only realized that the top three buttons of his shirt were open, his collar was also tangled.

“K—kalian—”

“Oh shut up Alisya! You're interfering with our pleasure.” Bayu was annoyed at his sister. I moved back towards Bayu, helping him tidy up his collar and shirt buttons because of me, while doing so I could not help but chuckle softly.

“I told you, they're busy.” Zac's whisper was clearly heard in my ear.

“You blame me?!” Demand Alisya not accept.

“This is not what you guys think.” I said calmly, glancing at their behavior in the doorway that was still arguing fiercely while whispering.

“What's up?” Tanya Bayu looked at Alisya full of threats, through her gaze Bayu as if to say ‘if you do not come because of something very important, you will die’.

Suddenly I realized something.

“Why did the CT scan get left behind? You are not the kind of person who carelessly leaves your own health results in the hospital.” I looked at Bayu suspiciously.

“Darling, I'm an ordinary human being, I can do recklessness. Do you see me as perfect as that?” Bayu grinned triumphantly.

“You're hiding something from me? Again?” I was not distracted by his grin and still looked at this man closely, trying to find a gap.

“Yes, Icha, why do you keep suspecting?? What else do I have to answer?” I knew when Bayu called my name, it meant that he was being serious and upset, indicating that this man would not tell me with his hasty departure in the midst of his wound examination.

“We—we want to go home first. You two go home soon after this because you've prepared dinner. Come.” At first glance I saw Alisya who pushed Zac to turn around, closed the door and left the two of us again in an awkward atmosphere.

“Come, better we also go home soon.” Invite Bayu who immediately stood up with a sluggish tone.

“What happened to you today? Why do you keep avoiding me?” I looked at Bayu without any intention of standing up.

“I'm not avoiding you, okay? There's nothing I have to explain anymore. I'm Good. You don't have to worry.” Obviously he is not good. His eyes looked sad, he didn't want to tell.

“Good! I understand.” I said I gave up and stood up, ready to go home.

“What do you understand?”

“I see, whatever happens to you today, whatever you think or feel, you don't have to explain it to me, each of us has to have personal space, yes ’kan?”

“Icha..”

“No need to force! I totally get it. Let's go home.” I said raise my hand for this debate to be over here.

“You are here!” Mother Kirana welcomed me and Bayu who had just stepped in through the door of the house. The smell of food is immediately smelled even from outside the house.

“Munda.” My husband hugged her briefly.

“Come on in. Everyone is already at the dinner table.” He said he pulled me along to the dining room while Bayu closed the door behind us.

When Kirana's mother dragged me to the dinner table, there was already our family gathered, starting from Evano's father and Rasha's father, there was Jeremy's grandfather, Alvaro's grandfather and Nella's grandmother. In addition there is Kenzo's uncle and Kenzie's aunt and her husband.

“Oh you finally came.” Another woman's voice came to the dining table with two hands busy holding the plate and Alisya was seen following from behind carrying another plate to put on the table.

I can't believe seeing Evano's father's girlfriend here.

“Where in the office, Cha?” Evano's father asked as soon as I sat in front of him.

“Very busy.” Answer's short. I'd love to talk about him buying some shares of the company I work for but I know it's not the right time.

“Ka, all have come, how about we start dinner?” Renata Velixia's proposal to Kirana's mother.

“Yes. We begin. Come let's all sit.” Invite Mother to agree and immediately everyone immediately sits in their respective places.

Jeremy's grandfather sits in the main seat of the dining table, in the row to his right there is Grandpa Alvaro, Nella's grandmother, Evano and Renata's father who enthusiastically immediately offer Evano's father a dish on the table. Then to the left of Jeremy's grandfather is Rasha's father, Kirana's mother, Kenzie's aunt and her husband - Giliant-. Uncle Kenzo sits next to his twin sister's husband and in front of Kenzo's uncle, Alisya occupies the last seat in the right row of the dining table, right next to Aunt Renata.

There are only 2 seats left, next to Uncle Kenzo and the main seat on the other side, facing Jeremy's grandfather. I immediately sat down next to Uncle Kenzo without taking off my jacket for wanting to cover my wrist, I didn't expect them to ask about that.
