Love In Tragedy
Chapter 31. Piqued.

After the discussion of the dizzying wedding plan, Yoga asked permission to go home first on the grounds that there will be a meeting tomorrow morning. And ask for that discussion to continue next time.

Yoga and Alina are in the car together. Although the mood is not good, Yoga still has to take Alina home as a form of responsibility. And that opportunity will be used by Yoga to talk to Alina.

" You are to... "

" I don't know anything about that plan. If you don't believe it, whatever... "

Alina quickly cut out the Yoga speech, as if knowing what Yoga was trying to say. Alina turns cold on Yoga. Alina just kept quiet and turned her face to look at the car glass, leaning her body and head on the car seat.

" Alin.. Should we talk? "

" I'm tired.... "

With a weak voice Alina answered briefly, without taking her eyes off the glass of the car to her left.

" But we have to talk about this before it gets any more complicated. "

Yoga wants to get things done right away, before both of their parents set a date for their wedding.

Alina who heard the tone of Yoga talk began to rise from before, becoming hooked. He turned his head to the right, yet still with a blank look and said firmly.

" I'm always patient waiting for you to give me a little time. Can't you do the same to me this time? I'm really tired. "

Alina's voice rang out at the end of her sentence. Therefore he paused his words, just wanted to take a breath to relieve the tightness in his chest.

" I just arrived at three o'clock last night. In the morning, I had to prepare everything until now. I really need a break now."

Without a single tear falling from the end of his eye. Alina quickly rubbed it and turned back to look at the car glass beside her. Again tears flowed from his eyes. He quickly rubbed it back, then closed his eyes. Trying to rest his exhausted mind and heart.

Yoga who sees it can only be silent. He was also jolted with the sentences that Alina spoke. As far as their relationship goes, Yoga has never heard Alina say ketus to him. This is the first time Yoga has discovered Alina's indifference. Even from earlier, Alina seemed to be unwilling to look at him.

Hearing Alina's explanation of her circumstances, Yoga suddenly felt guilty. Yoga felt to have become a bad person, because all this time had ignored Alina's feelings. But he had to be cruel to Alina. Because if they continue, they will both not be happy.

Because in his heart there was no longer a place for Alina. His heart is for Nabiqha. Yoga does not want to continue being a bad person by hurting the hearts of both. Therefore, Yoga wants to quickly solve this problem. But his lips seemed to freeze, unable to speak anymore to see the fragility of Alina at this time.

Yoga is really upset with itself. Many times he squeezed the steering wheel of the car until his knuckles turned white.

Finally, throughout their journey, there was only silence. Until he arrived in front of the Alina family residence, he asked Yoga to stop his car.

" That's it. You also hurriedly want to go home quickly and rest right?! "

Yoga can only obey Alina's wishes. And once the car stopped, Alina immediately opened her safety belt and opened the car door. But when he wanted to get out of the car, Alina stopped for a moment as if thinking about something. Then he turned around and took out a square box from inside his bag, and handed it to Yoga without even looking at his face.

" Gift for you. If you don't like it, throw it away."

Yoga took the gift from Alina's hand in silence. He had not expected to hear another scathing sentence from Alina.

" About that discussion, I will try to talk to my parents, so as not to force you to marry me. If that's what you're worried about, it's not necessary. Because I don't want to get married because I have to."

Alina uttered those firm sentences with reddened eyes and returned glistening. Then it immediately came down and passed without ever looking back again, until it entered the house.

Yoga can only see it until it is invisible. No more warm hugs and sweet kisses let alone soft kisses from Alina, when they separated after driving Alina home.

Alina's cold attitude made Yoga even more annoyed at herself. Because I feel like I have become a very bad person. Because he hurt his heart. Yoga vented his frustration by banging his car's steering wheel. Then he grabbed it, even after that he squeezed and pulled his own hair while shouting.

" Eghrear..... AHGGGHHH......."

***

At home, Yoga also finds that her parents have just returned home. Yoga quickly approached her parents. They walked into the house together. At home, Yoga does not delay any more time. He wanted to quickly discuss the matter with his parents.

" lt... Ma's. Yoga wants to talk."

His words stopped the footsteps of his parents, who wanted to climb the stairs to the top floor.

" Speak what? Tomorrow only. It's night, Rest." Answer the papa.

" But pa.... This is important for Yoga."

The word Yoga makes the step of the papa again stopped. Mama Hani, who was still silent under the stairs, looked at Yoga with a little anxiety. Heard his son's voice rising while he was talking to his father.

" What's the problem?"

Papa came back down the stairs and approached Yoga.

" Why do you and your mom decide on a Yoga wedding, without discussing it first with Yoga? "

Tanya Yoga went straight to the subject, making mama and papa frown.

" What's why? You've been engaged for over a year. As women's parents, they question the clarity of the continuation of your relationship. And papa as a parent of the male side, responsible for affirming it.See no movement from you to immediately formalize your relationship. Even you are always impressed to buy time to discuss this issue. "

" Aren't you the one who spoke to his parents when he asked to be betrothed to Alin. That you'll have your wedding next year, which means it's this year. Why are you avoiding now? "

The words of the father made Yoga speechless. Then gently, Mama Hani held her son's arm and led him to sit on the sofa.

" Dear, be honest with mom! What's really going on? Alin has often complained about changes in your attitude with mom. And mama always tries to make him understand the situation and your busyness. But the more you come here, I feel like this isn't just because you're busy."

Mama Hani asked softly, trying to cool down the slightly heated situation.

" Honest ma..... Later Yoga felt uncomfortable with Alin. "

The recollective Yoga speech made Papa Adi ruffled his waist, while the mother increasingly frowned.

" The more you come here, the more uncomfortable Yoga becomes. Yoga therefore hesitates to continue this relationship."

Papa Adi laughed cynically at the words of his son. Then step forward and sit before Yoga with a sharp gaze.

" You talk like a kid who's tired of his toys, and then easily says he wants to throw them away and ask for a new toy. Is such an attitude appropriate for a 26-year-old man? You're a grown-up Prayoga hermawan. So think and be wise like a grown man. Don't plan like a labile teenager. You think this is a mess, huh?!"

Papa Adi began not to be able to hold his emotions with the attitude of Yoga that was considered plin-plan.

" Be calm, pa.... We're talking about this all right. " Mama Hani said trying to calm her husband.

" Papa warned you from the beginning.... When you asked to get engaged to Alin. Think over and over again, don't rush into decisions. The engagement is the clarity of the status of your relationship to the marriage. But you're saying, if you believe Alin is the right choice for you, and you love him so much. Now you want to lick your own spit." Connect papa Adi.

Yoga mused hearing all his papa sayings. Regretting his hasty decision in the past. Just because of jealousy and the fear of losing again, made him become possessive of Alina.

Especially with the profession of Alina as a model, who often had to pose friendly with many male model colleagues. Making Yoga take a rash decision by binding Alina in an engagement bond, before even a year they get to know each other.

" Didn't papa and Haris also say, if you won't force us to bond with each other if we feel uncomfortable with each other. "

Denial of Yoga to the father to defend himself.

" That was before you decided to get engaged to Alin. Papa and Alin's papa are deliberately bringing you together and advising you to get to know each other. And we also stress each other not to force you to be bound to each other. But that doesn't mean you can go like this. "

Papa Adi is increasingly angry to hear the statement Yoga. While Mama Hani who saw a flash of anger in the eyes of papa Adi like it was unbearable again, moved to the side of papa Adi. Touching her shoulders and gently rubbing her husband's arms, to ease her anger.

" Patience pa.... Don't be so emotional. Maybe Yoga just feels a little saturated, because they're having a little problem."

Papa Adi took a deep breath, trying to neutralize his emotions that began to rise. Yoga is getting more and more upset. His mind was chaotic, so many times Yoga ruffled his hair. Sometimes it also pees at the base of the nose and forehead.

" Yoga, now explain it to mama! what makes you uncomfortable with Alin? Hasn't Alin been doing everything you want? So far, mama saw Alin never do anything disappointing. What are you guys having problems? It's not possible that you suddenly feel uncomfortable again just like he did."

Yoga was unable to answer her questions, which made her even more frustrated. Yoga rubbed his face roughly, then lowered his head with both hands as a refutation.

" The problem is clear. It was because he was a childish one, and could not keep the commitment he made by himself."

The papa's rebuttal made Yoga quickly raise his head, looking intently at the papa. Then a second later turned his face annoyed. I was offended by his father's words.

" Or is this because the new employee named Nabiqha Azzahra was?"

Papa Adi's guess spontaneously rounded Yoga's eyes, and immediately made him turn his head back to look at the father. And his papa also challenged him with a sharp look.

" New employee? What does the new employee have to do with this?

The mother's question awakened Yoga from her shock at the papa's statement. Making Yoga immediately think to quibble, so that Biqha is not to blame in this case.

" Ap...What does papa mean?

Yoga could not cover her nervousness, even though she pretended not to understand the statement of the father.

" Don't think you don't know what's going on in the office. Even though papa has handed over the leadership of the company in your hands. Not that papa just let go without monitoring the course of the company. The slightest incident, even rumors that occur because of your arbitrary actions also papa know."

Degs.... Heart Yoga flinched with papa Adi's statement. Particularly nervous, Yoga felt his throat dry because it was difficult to swallow his own saliva.

" This has nothing to do with anyone. Besides, why is papa concerned about linking the problem, with this problem? Yoga recommends him, because Yoga knows his abilities and he is the best choice. Papa must have seen the CV, right?"

Yoga is trying to quibble, thinking this is not the right time to acknowledge its relationship with Biqha. Seeing the anger in the eyes of the father who is still burning.

" really? How do you know for sure what he's capable of, if you don't know him well?"

Papa asked while still staring intently at Yoga.

" Yoga knows her abilities well, because she is a friend of Yoga High School. He's a Yoga classmate who won the math and physics Olympics two years in a row with Erick. He and Erick who used to love helping Yoga learn. Because of that Yoga knows he has above average abilities like Erick. And it just so happens that she is looking for a job, so Yoga offers her to work for our company. "

" Papa hope what you say is true Yoga. If you know this change in your attitude, it has to do with him.... Papa will not remain silent. Remember that! Do not follow in the footsteps of your best friend. Don't you think that since you're our only child, you can act as you please. Papa will also act decisively with you, if it concerns the good name of the family and also the company that our family founded."

Papa got up from his seat and left Yoga and Mama Hani there. Yoga lowered his head while gripping both sides of his forehead. Being angry and feeling helpless.
