Lies
A Short Suspicious Message

Fortunately, everything was normal even though at the beginning of Raya had confusion about the story of the father. He is professional enough to continue his work. It is true that he does not know his parents, especially the father, but Raya can still describe how protection against the figure of his father. The woman found out for herself by doing some simple research. First, he watched television and read some articles. It gives a little picture but does not help. Raya finally relied on the experiences of others, she asked her husband.

“My relationship with Papa?” Karan frowned strangely. He did not understand why the wife suddenly asked about her relationship with the father. “Why did you suddenly ask that?” tanyanya while walking towards Raya who was on the bed. Tonight Karan decides to sleep with his wife. Although they did not have conjugal relations because Raya's health was not improving, Karan still decided to sleep with his wife. Keeping the woman and being by her side was Karan's greatest wish. Unfortunately, he had to sleep in a separate room several times in order to take care of himself. Because, Karan always could not help himself not to attack Raya.

Raya put her phone on the nightstand to greet her husband. He moved closer when Karan was already beside him. Lately I really like being close to Karan. This is strange considering their relationship is not as romantic as it is even though they have started to open up to each other. “You remember the perfume ad I was going to do? I got the role of a kid who misses my dad, but strangely I can't do that.”

Karan opened both of his hands and let Raya sneak into his arms. The spoiled attitude of Raya did not bother Karan at all. Karan really likes Raya to behave like this. It feels like Karan is always needed by his wife. “Of course you don't know what it's like,” Karan chirped unknowingly. The man was only focused on the fresh scent that burst out from the Kingdom's body so as not to pay attention to what was coming out of his mouth.

“Ya?” Raya flinched, feeling shocked by the statement her husband had just made. “What do you mean?”

“What?” Karan was confused, then he realized his mistake. Quickly he corrected his words. “I mean, you just stay with your aunt. It's natural that you don't remember your father.” Karan exhaled after a reasonable reason he had just said to Raya. What happened was not like that. The relationship between Raya and her father is very bad. It can be said as the victim and the perpetrator. Here Ray is the victim of the father's abusive behavior. If that was the case, it was only natural that Raya did not remember at all. Karan will choose to let his wife forget those bad memories forever.

“Iya, that's why I'm looking for a way. You're very close to your parents, aren't you? Can you tell me that?”

Karan did not immediately reply and chose to throw away the face. Honestly, he also did not really remember how his relationship with his parents was. He only remembers his relationship with his parents now. Maybe a piece of this story can help the wife. “Papa was a very nice person, so I lived with the affection from Papa. Especially when I was in college. No matter how busy, Papa always visited me by bringing some typical food from Indonesia. Papa ..”

Karan tells a lot about his father and their relationship is quite good. Only, Karan only tells about the past relationship when Karan was in college. The man did not tell about his childhood, even his high school days were not as if Karan's memories only started from his college days. There is only one reason Raya thinks. It may be because Karan suffers from a disease that makes him have to languish in the hospital all day. With such a stressful atmosphere, even if her parents were always there to accompany her, Karan would still feel lonely. He could not play with his friends and only struggled with drugs and medical treatment.

“Very good. I love your closeness and Papa,” said Raya at the end of Karan's sentence. It was an honest expression because Raya really liked hearing it. At first glance, she can imagine the closeness of her husband with the father-in-law. Although it could not be too obvious, at least Raya could feel a little warmth. “Kira, if later we have children, what kind of father will you be?” Raya asks a perverted question and it makes Karan surprised.

“What? Dad?” reset Karan. “I ... I don't know,” the answer is honest. The man did not know what kind of father he would be if he had a child with his wife. Reviano's family does take very good care of him. Karan is grateful to have such a family. Especially her father who always helped her and guided her. Even now, the father bravely handed over the position as the top leader of the company to him. The problem was not enough to give Karan a picture. The man still hesitated to have children.

Whether it was just a stale or a reality, but Karan was happy to hear it. He likes when Raya praises him and puts confidence in his figure. “Yes, I don't think I'd be bad at being a father. I'm also sure you'll be a good mother, Raya. Because you are my wife,” she said. For this remark Karan assured that he was not being stale. Raya is indeed a woman who deserves to be a mother. It was evident where Raya was very close to the children in the orphanage. Whether it was when you were a teenager or an adult. Raya doesn't seem awkward at all when interacting with children.

“So, do you want to have children?” Raya asked because she was curious. Both eyes looked badly at the husband who was tense. The man seemed so hesitant to reply, he seemed not to be too fond of the proposal. “I mean later, not now. For example, when we are ready, do you want to have children?” raya said his words.

The proposal to have a child was indeed triggered in Karan's head. But Karan's purpose back then was only to bind Raya. His wife would not have run away from him if they had children. If Karan throws his petty intentions at Raya, will the woman listen to him? Raya was angry with him. The sins that Karan had committed all this time to obtain Raya alone were already unforgivable. If added with that rotten desire, perhaps Raya would be furious at him.

“I want to, but not now. Isn't it now that you and I are enough? I don't think there needs to be children in our small family,” Karan said as he hugged Raya's body. The past is not on their side. There are too many secrets that cannot be revealed now. For Karan, the presence of children will be a source of problems in his relationship with Raya. Especially when the secret that he tried to close was revealed. That past may not only hurt them, but the child will also suffer. Before that happens, Karan prefers not to have children.

Another is with Raya. There was great disappointment when her husband said that. Previously Karan did not mind the presence of the child at all, but lately, the man changed his mind. It is like not having offspring. Raya really wants to have children. He doesn't care if he has to stop working to take care of his son later. Or no longer have a proportional body like a model like now. That was her instinctive desire as a woman. But Raya also refused to dispute her husband's words. Being a parent is not only the responsibility of one party. Karan and Raya must be equally responsible for their pet.

“Yes, I think the presence of children is not necessary now,” said Raya in a sad tone.

Karan was not a ignorant fool with a sad tone that emerged from Raya's speech. The problem is, Karan is really not ready to have children now. Maybe later, when he has cleared up their past, the desire to have the child will arise by itself in Karan's heart. But for sure, it is unlikely to happen anytime soon.

“Now let's go to sleep, honey. Tomorrow you have to go on set, don't you? You have to rest a lot.” Karan stroked Raya's head so that she could close her eyes. When he made sure Raya was asleep, Karan moved Raya's body to a more comfortable position for the woman, then he himself was preparing to sleep.

Unfortunately, only one minute Karan closed his eyes, suddenly his phone rang. Karan reluctantly opens his eyes, but he has to stop the person who sent him a short message many times. And as soon as Karan picked up the phone and read the notifications of some short messages that went into his phone, the man was wide-eyed instead of playing. The person who sent him the message to his personal number was not an important person for Karan. Not his family, his wife's family or Ian's, because only they have Karan's personal number. But someone from the past who made Karan's entire body goosebumps.

“Shoppers! How does this fucking woman know my personal number?” the swearing of Karan who could not help his frustration.
