Love Is Rain
Chapter 29. Silence is not always Gold.

Bie brought a glass of warm tea and a plate of cake for Dimas. It's put on the table. After that, Bie sat in front of Dimas.

"Lo added handsome. Deserve the mothers were on a scene," said Bie open a chat.

Dimas looked at Bie without a blink. When he noticed Dimas' gaze on her, Bie looked down.

"Lo doesn't want to say anything" Dimas said.

"Gue has to say what?" said Bie.

"Maybe .. Who is the father of the baby Lo. Or why did Mommy lie by saying Lo ran away? Or why did you lie to me? Or ... whatever you want to say," Dimas said with great emphasis.

"Where to start? So many questions." Bie is still down. He did not look at Dimas's face.

"Where else am I ready to hear."

"The first thing you should know, I asked Mother to lie with Lo."

"Why?"

"Because I don't want to trouble Lo anymore."

"Did I ever say that Lo's been a hassle!"

"Lo never said it. But I realize, all this time has been too often troublesome Lo. You're always there when I need you, without me asking you to be ready to do anything to help."

"Okay, I can accept Mother's lie. But you need to remember, I never felt Lo bothered. Then why haven't you been honest about your pregnancy all this time?"

"The answer is, Dim. I don't want to trouble Lo. I've been asking Lo for help quite often."

"Whose child does Lo bear?"

"My son."

"Gue knows it's Lo's son, Bie. Who do I want to know who Lo's father is?"

"No need to know, Dim."

"Gue forgot, to Lo I this is nobody. You never thought I existed."

Bie raised his face. Tears began to fall on her cheeks.

"Dim, for me Lo is not just a friend but a friend. I've looked at you like a brother."

"But I don't believe that. If Lo thinks I'm a brother, there's no way Lo can hide all this from me."

"Sorry, Dim. I can't say it."

"Keenan son of Lo?" Bie is shocked to hear Dimas' words.

"Rubber, right? Keenan son of Lo. Why didn't Lo tell Keenan all this? Why did you take all this on your own?"

"Why do you think this is Keenan's son?"

"Lo's never been close to a man except me and Keenan."

"It happened on good-bye night, didn't it?"

"Why can you think that?"

"That night I was looking for Lo. The show's over, but Lo's not coming back. I'm looking for a garden. But there's no Lo or Keenan."

"Gue doesn't know why all this could happen to me. It's out of my control."

"Do you mind sharing your story?"

"No, Dim. I'll tell you a story. Because it is also free to cover everything. You already know."

Bie then recounts everything that happened that night with Dimas. It all started when he chatted with Keenan in the park.

"You must have been given medicine. But who could do all that? Is it possible Keenan?"

"Already, Dim. There's no point in finding out. I have also explained everything I have experienced. It all happened to my mistakes. Why would I want to when Keen invites me"

"Keen knows you're pregnant?" Bie shook his head in response.

"Lo is selfish and arrogant.Somehow, Lo it only thinks of himself Lo. Didn't Lo ever think that one day, when Lo's son was big and asked who his father was? Lo's arrogance, Lo always think if you are strong. You can face all alone."

"I'm sorry, Dim. You're right, I'm selfish. I'm arrogant, I'm evil same Lo. I'm a liar" said Bie with tears spilled.

Dimas stood up from his seat. He moved to sit next to Bie.

"Lo is not a God who can solve problems on his own. There are times when we have to be strong and there are times when we have to share. Don't pretend to be strong, Bie. I don't know Lo for two days. But it's been more than three years. Why didn't Lo tell Keenan everything? You always try to make others happy so that you forget how to make yourself happy. It's the same as torturing yourself."

"Keep me how? Do I have to tell everyone what I'm going through? What should I say if I'm hurt right now. And what Lo thinks with me says it all, the problems I'm facing are over. I'm not looking for sympathy from people."

Bie took a breath, looking at Dimas sitting next to him.

"Sometimes it's better to be silent than to explain what we feel, because it hurts when they can only hear but can't understand."

Dimas grabbed Bie's hand, and held it.

"In fact, not always silent is beautiful and not always silent is gold. Imagine if all problems were solved in silence. Not solving the problem, it will cause a big problem. Why so? Maybe silence is a way that someone takes to overcome the problems that occur. However, this method can only be used temporarily. Can only be used in certain situations and conditions. Problems don't always come at the same time and situation. So, a way of silence would only be appropriate in certain situations."

"Do you think with me saying everything the problem will be solved. If Keen's parents can accept me, the problem is solved. If you can't accept me, two problems will come. First Keen's parents will try to keep me away and hate me for destroying her son's future. Second, Cath and her parents will also hate me for ruining her son's engagement plans. I better step back. Trouble is only with me."

"I'm sorry, Bie. It was emotional. I was angry when I found out you were lying to me. And I don't think you think I exist. I understand Lo's mind. But you don't have to sacrifice like this either. Lo should have talked to Keen too and tried to find a way out."

"Gue is wrong, Dim. Lied with Lo."

"Next time don't cover up your problems alone. Sometimes sharing can reduce the burden. Don't cry anymore."

Dimas took Bie into his arms. Back, Bie's tears broke in his chest.
