Hardhan saw that Kei was already getting restless, he pulled up a small chair and sat down in front of Kei, holding Kei's chin and raising his face until his eyes saw Hardan's eyes.
"I forbid you to go to nightclub... For your own good."
"That's not the first time I've been there...."
Hardan pulled his hand from Kei's chin.
"You're lucky enough I found you in such a passionate state! And thwart anyone who intends to take advantage of a stupid woman like you! Can you imagine what you would be today if the s*x predator succeeded with its intentions? Maybe now you're done with them... After that, you can still breathe, it is profitable for you.... And where was your ex-husband when all that happened? Want me to tell you?" clearly Hardan was merciless.
Blood seemed to disappear from Kei's face, he looked pale now, but Hardhan must not stop, Kei must know his fatal mistake this time.
"And you lightly said it wasn't your first time there... For Christ's sake... You should have known, take good care of your drink, or at least do not let your glass off unless your glass is empty!"
Yaahh Kei remembered now, he had only drunk half a glass of his mojito when Galang went down to the dancefloor, and since then Kei's eyes were too focused on Galang until he turned his back on his drinking glass.
Kei wanted to provide support for Galang when he was sad, and at that time Galang was indeed in a mess. But who would have thought that just a woman who was swerving in front of him alone could have made him forget just as much grief.
Irritated to see Galang coolly swaying with other women, Kei again drank his mojito... After that he felt dizzy and hot all over his body, and at that time Galang was no longer there...
Envisioning Galang being cool to pervert with the woman while Kei is in danger, making Kei's heart hurt, without being asked to tears wet his hands squeezing each other on his lap. Kei sobbed sadly.
How could Galang leave me like that.
Seeing Kei cry makes Hardhan clumsy, confused what to do... It was usually Alex's job to calm down those women who were crying when Hardan left her...
But this time he didn't want Alex to step in, however Kei was his future wife, meaning he already belonged to Hardhan, and Hardhan didn't want anyone to touch what already belonged to him, at least for the next 6 months.
Hardhan took the tissue box from the small table next to the bed, and gave it to Kei.
Kei took 2 pieces of tissue to wipe his tears.
"I want to go home... Papa must be worried about me."
he nodded his nose with a tissue.
"Alex told your papa not to worry."
"Papa doesn't know that we're getting married..."
"I'll go with you, and explain everything."
"Why not take me home instead of to a hotel?"
"With your condition like that?" Hardhan turned back his neck by the side of the raised eyebrows.
"No... That's not the right choice. Papa's gonna have a heart attack...."
Kei's wistful eyes looked at Hardhan, his nose reddened, one or two tears still dripping from his eyes, down to his smooth cheeks. Hardhan wiped away the tears with his hands, without him being able to prevent it.
"We don't... Haven't..." Kei was unable to continue his words, but Hardhan already understood his point.
"Nothing happened between us... You were excited but it wasn't long before I fainted, and I wasn't interested in a woman who couldn't respond to me..."
Actually I half-deadly held back my own passion. Damnit damnit!! why should he bring up the matter now anyway?!
Kei breathed a sigh of relief..
"Thank you" she said with a sweet smile.
I have to turn my attention before I khilaf and narik Kei into that fucking bed.
"Alex!!"
"To Kei's house now!!"
********************
"Don't tell papa that we're married for only 6 months." whispered Kei when they got home.
Next to Hardhan's eyebrows rose.
"I don't want to lie, let alone lie to my parents."
"I'm not asking you to lie... Just don't talk about it."
"I can't stand that, if your dad's smart he'll realize it himself."
"Watch your own house! I'll announce your arrival to papa!" for Kei to be upset, leaving Hardan alone in his living room.
Hardhan looked around the house, his eyes fixed on the family photo hanging behind the TV, Hardhan saw the photo up close, little Kei smiled sweetly at the camera on the lap of his smiling mother. The smile is identical to mother and child.
"She looks like her mother." insisted someone behind her.
Hardhan turned around and found his father Kei who was looking at the photo as well.
"It's so similar to me."
Hardan extended his hand.
"Hardhan." said.
"Hendrawan." replied papa Kei while shaking Hardan's hand.
"We talked in the study, I told Kei not to interrupt our conversation."
"It should be like that... Let's show you the way."
Mr. Hendrawan walked first, and Hardan tailed behind him.
This workspace is not as big as Hardhan's workspace, Mr. Hendrawan sat in his big chair and Hardhan sat across from Mr. Hendrawan, a good position when we will talk about something serious, a serious matter, look directly at the eyes of our interlocutors.
"Kei told me that somehow you two are in love so you decided to get married as soon as possible..."
mr. Hendrawan looked at Hardhan thoroughly before continuing his conversation.
"I'm stupid to believe it."
"As I suspected... You're not a fool."
Mr. Hendrawan leaned his body into a chair, his hands were tied above his stomach.
"What makes a Hardan Adipramana willing to help my son and my stupid son-in-law? God knows you can choose even the most perfect wife-to-be by just flicking your finger."
"To be honest I was interested when I first saw Kei... Unfortunately, she already has a husband. And found Galang looking for a husband for his wife...." Hardan hung up his words, recalling his time at the club with Galang, "I don't think I could have wasted that opportunity" he continued, shrugging both shoulders.
"At least you didn't lie to me and want to be honest, you could have supported Kei saying that you fell in love with each other so that I would approve of your marriage, but you dare take the risk of telling the truth."
"I'm just not used to lying."
"What if I don't agree with your marriage?"
"That's your right as a parent, on the one hand I have nothing to lose, but not on the Kei and Galang side, they will continue to look for other prospective husbands who will be able to work with until they get approval from you. And who suffers the most from it all?"
Hardhan deliberately did not continue his words, let Hendrawan sir who speculated himself.
