Lies
The Open Memory

The direction of Raya's gaze invited Karan's attention. He was surprised when he saw the wife who only focused on observing one point for a few moments. Karan immediately followed the direction of the view and he saw the same thing as what the wife saw. It turns out Raya is watching the red mark on Mike's wrist. Without more explanation, Karan knows what the sign is. He received the same sign when he was a teenager. The mark made by some people, one of them a woman who tried hard for her to forget because she did not want the woman to appear in her head. The woman who traumatized him was so heavy.

Karan does not want Raya to see the wrist for longer because he is afraid it will raise the suspicion of the owner of the house. Eventually Karan takes over by asking Mike to represent Raya. “Are you really interested in math? Coincidentally my wife also likes maths,” Karan said. I don't really like math, at least. As a teenager, the woman seemed to hate the lessons associated with the counts.

Mike is interested in Karan's words. He raised his head and looked towards Raya. “Create Madam?”

I hesitated to answer it. It's true that he became an exemplary student in high school, but that doesn't mean he really likes math. The lesson was like having something that Raya could not ignore. Something so valuable that he always paid more attention when working on math problems. That's why he was able to pass the High School with a fairly satisfactory value.

“Yes, a little good in math lessons, but I'm not sure as good as you are,” Raya honestly said. Of course Mike will be better than him because the man to study higher education in mathematics. He certainly has good value. “You must really like math, don't you? That's really cool. Not many people can like a lesson that difficult,” praise Raya deliberately to give a lesson to Mike's father and mother. At least so that the two men don't demean their own children just because Mike doesn't go their way.

Mike smiled happily. “Thank you Mistress.” The face that had been covered in sadness had now turned cheerful. Mike likes to be praised by others. Maybe because his parents don't like to praise him. Instead of praising, they make the child feel discouraged to not feel comfortable during the dinner. At least by hearing that one compliment, Mike was calm.

Unfortunately, the praise made by Raya did not have a good impact on Mike's parents. They grew even more upset to distract everyone by praising their oldest child. Because Mike's brother was the son of the first wife who was so loved by the head of the family, no wonder he got so much praise. Not only his achievements in the business world, achievements in the world of sports that have nothing to do did not escape the praise of the father.

And once again, Raya observes Mike who now bows his head. The boy's hand was always shaking until he accidentally dropped his spoon. The whole room was shocked. The father raised his voice, “What are you doing this, Mike? Why are you making such a fuss in front of such a precious guest?” The old man rebuked his son with a loud voice that made Mike so depressed that he unconsciously said, “Even Dad! Forgive me! This is not gonna happen again. It's my fault, geez!”

Karan and Raya gasped at hearing that. It was just a small mistake that wasn't too problematic. Dropping a spoon is common when someone is in the dining room. There is no need to cause a commotion like this and make Mike beg for forgiveness. From there Raya can conclude something that Mike has been getting violence from his family, whether it's mental violence or physical violence. To be sure the evidence of bruises on the hands and the exaggerated reaction of the young man had already answered all of them.

Surprisingly, Raya felt her head so dizzy. It was like seeing something in front of him. A shadow that made him tremble in fear. So afraid Raya accidentally touched Karan's hand and gripped him tightly. Raya's really scared right now.

“Honey, what's up?” ask Karan to panic. The man deliberately used Indonesian so that the people there did not understand what they were saying. Karan looked at Raya's paled face and felt the woman's cold hand. Looks like something is wrong with Raya. “You all right?”

Karan nodded in understanding. He quickly stood up and conveyed the form of his apology to the colleague. “Excuse us, Mr and Mrs. It seems my wife is not feeling well. If you don't mind, may I take my wife back to the room?”

Karan's colleague, who was looking at Mike, changed his gaze to Raya. He was surprised to see the super model's face was so pale. “Your wife is fine? Should I call a doctor?”

Hurry Raya shook her head. “No Sir, I'm just a little dizzy. Maybe I need a break.”

“Then be well. I hope the Madam is better. Sorry for forcing you to have dinner in its current condition.”

After getting permission, Karan swiftly carried Raya and brought the wife to their room. But on the way, Raya grimaced while hiding her head in the chest of Karan's field. The woman exclaimed, “No, no! I beg you to forgive me. This is my fault, this is really my fault!” Raya looks unconscious when saying her long sentence because her eyes are closed while her lips move.

Not wanting anyone to hear or see the scene, Karan accelerated. “Wait For Sweetheart. We'll be there soon,” said the man. Once in the room, the CEO hastily closes their room and locks it, making sure no one can open the place. Then, he brought Raya to sit on the sofa. Because it looks like it will be dangerous if Raya dissolves in her sleep.

“Raya, open your eyes. We are already in the room now,” Karan said as he stroked Raya's head, helping the woman to open both her eyes. And succeed. Raya also woke up from her sleep.

However, instead of returning to the usual Kingdom, the woman was instead acting strangely. He got up from the sofa, then without any cues rested under Karan's feet. A move that of course made Karan so surprised. “Darling, why are you like this? Let's wake!” said.

Raya shook her head. Shortly after, the woman spoke while holding Karan's leg. “Ampuni me, please forgive me. My body hurts so much, please forgive me,” isak that woman.
