"Did something happen?" Leon who was driving his car glanced at Rafa who had been silent since. They usually stay quiet like they are now. Rafael and himself must be involved in conversations with random topics, although most lead to business.
"It's been Lee's second month." This time Leon was silent. He knows where his best friend is talking. This is the time Rafael promised to release Milea if there are no signs of pregnancy on her sister. Does Leon have to be sad? of course he would be the most sad if it all happened. If there is a possessive brother in this world, maybe he is one of them. Leon never allowed Milea to date let alone marry just anyone. Only Rafael believes he can keep Milly, not anyone else. Somehow the fate of his sister later if the separation was true happened. It could be said that all was Milea's fault. The girl was still entangled in Richard's charms that really did not care about her other than as a sister-in-law alone.
"Did your relationship not have any significant development?" Rafael pulled the tip of his lips as if scoffing.
"I've been patient enough in these two months Lee. And I'm not sure dady's gonna be more patient than me." Fernandolah is the ruler. The middle-aged man has the right to decide with whom, worthy or not, also deserves a relationship maintained in his children. If Rafa alone is not sure, it means Milea really failed to take the heart of her two in-laws.
"Then?"
"Can we just go to Rein's cafe?" Leon immediately turned his vehicle. The golf game plan was destroyed because of a sudden change of location but close from there. The Rein Cafe is one of their favorite places. Cafe with basic fishing spots is indeed a convenient location to talk about personal things because of its very convenient location.
The two young men entered the cafe to the back where the fishing pond with the dangau-dangau was neatly arranged there. Countless times they encountered women who were amazed by above average good looks. But both were acting as usual. Rafa immediately picked up the dangau tip and ordered food and drinks for the two.
"Can't you guys hold on? ehm...I mean..learn to love each other like momy and dady you when first married first?" It was not Leon's intention to interfere or maintain his sister's position to be in his comfort zone. But really, he and Ken are the ones who most hope the relationship will be okay.
"Momy never loved another man when she married him." Leon knows that. Sofia hutama was not involved or put her heart on anyone when she was forced to marry Fernando hutama. This is Milea's fault!
"If Milly forgets Richard, do you want to take Raf?" Leon asked softly, afraid that Rafael misunderstood him.
"Is there anyone who intends to divorce after Lee's marriage?" ask Rafa. As Leon was about to answer, the waiter came to bring their order. Leon had to wait until the waiter left.
"Maybe's. You're victims of arranged marriages." Leon knows enough to answer otherwise. He knows enough about Rafa's position now. They are both men. Leon also knows Rafa is not the type of man who likes to start a relationship or just pursue someone's love. There's nothing in his life dictionary. Rafa was born as an heir who only knows learning and working, not taking care of love and his brothers.
"Destiny Lee. It was written in my destiny, too, Milea. There are no victims here. Even if fate does not take our side, then this marriage will not happen. So if you ask me if I can survive or not then I've left it to fate. Milea's urine test is out. He's negative. There was no pregnancy. Then next week I'll be suing for her divorce."
"You.." Leon's face stiffened. Rafa never messes with his words. What he said, that's what he's gonna do.
"Don't worry Lee. I will still compensate him. Your family will have no trouble anymore. Let's just say it's my apology for raping Milea." Leon's speechless. His face turned cloudy.
"Just give Milea back to me, not to papa because I'm her brother. I'll be responsible for his life." Very responsible brother, right? Leon felt his actions were quite right. Ken would have thought a lot if he knew Milea was apart. His health is not okay now.
"I know it's Lee, drink it. We're too tense today." Rafael smiled widely, showing off his neat row of white teeth. Leon smiled before sipping on his favorite mango juice.
"I'm sorry Raf. But can we be like this if the breakup happens?" Leon is not sure that everything will be okay after this. There's a wounded heart who doesn't belong to.
"This marriage has nothing to do with our friendship Lee. Just relax." Before marriage there was friendship. Why did Leon suddenly become so naive and melancholic?
"Honestly I still hope you guys survive." The tone was low but sounded excited.
"I don't like to force."
"Then I'm the one who'll force Milea to accept you."
"You think I like your actions? no Lee. I'll only accept Milly when she runs willingly to me, not by your coercion." Press Rafael with a flash of anger. Forcing Milly alone she never, let alone having to see Leon force her. It could have ruined the man if he had really done it.
......Clik....
Rafael glanced at Leon's newly switched off phone. There's a profile picture of Milea there. Rafael glared for a moment, but regained his composure in a matter of seconds. His emotional mastery is above average.
"You intentionally?" Without asking Rafa tay if Leon accidentally connected the phone to his sister to know their conversation. But it's okay. That way he does not have to bother telling Milea about her divorce lawsuit next week.
"Yes." Yeah." Rafa tersemyum smirk's. He knows enough of his best friend's cunning.
"Good." Only that word came out of Rafa's lips before eating his fries.
