Loving My Brother's Fiancee
21. Good bye

Salwa still listened to Abraham's story. She did not expect that the man also had the exact same story as her. An unwanted child in the family. All this time he thought only he had such a fate. It turned out that his thinking was wrong, there were even those who suffered far more than him.

Abra has to fight alone out there. While he, although never got affection from a father, but he still lives one roof with his father. Abra looked at the woman beside him.

"Why are you silent? Do you think our fate is the same? The answer is no, right? You're luckier because you still have a father who still cares about you. He's also in charge of living you."

Salwa smiled in response. Didn't the man know how tortured he had been all this time? All this time the woman survived, hoping someone would take her away. It used to be Salwa's wish to give Ibra, but after the betrayal the man had committed, everything ran aground.

Hope was back when Abra came. That man is all he has. Can the woman pin her hopes on Abra?

"Yes, you're right. I still have a father, but if I may choose, I better not have one and live alone on my own. Although I have to scavenge on the side of the road" said Salwa with a straight forward view.

"Life is not as easy as you might think. Right now you're saying it's better to be a scavenger in the middle of the road, but when you feel how painful their lives are, you're sure to say it's better to live with all the compulsion. However, all are fulfilled. We can't compare our lives with others because we don't know how they live. We'd better try to make our lives better."

"You say as if what you say is very easy. Do you also experience ease as long as you live alone?"

"Not really, nothing is easy in this world. Even if the rich man is sure his life will not be calm. They always want more and more."

Abra enjoyed her tea which was already cold. Reminded how hard life he lived, making the man feel every scratch wounds obtained. Not just a physical wound, but also an inner wound and it was more painful.

"Abra, if you find the culprit and find the cure for Ibra, what will you do next?" salwa asked as she looked at the man beside her.

He also needs to hear the answer from Abra. She is no longer a girl. Can she hope for the man next to her?

"As the original plan. I'm going to go back to my previous life and take a promise to papa. If after this there will be no more connection between me and their families."

"May I ask for one thing. Please take me with you! Whatever you want, I will obey, but please, please take me away!" pinta Salwa in a soft tone.

There was pain in every word he spoke. It may look stupid, but Salwa has fallen for Abra's charm. He was already in love with that man. Whether conscious or not, that was how the woman felt right now. Salwa did not want to lose the man. Even abroad they have to live all the shortcomings, but while with Abra, Salwa will never regret it because it is his desire.

In his heart, Abra was eager to say yes. But he believes it will only add to his problems. After all the man wasn't sure Salwa could stand her life, given how she lived there.

Salwa laughed when she heard it. Doesn't Abra know how she feels right now? In his heart there was no Ibra. How can he live a life later if that love has run aground because of the betrayal that his fiancee committed.

"How can you say that Ibra is a good man, after what he did to me. You're not stupid, are you? Are you going to turn a blind eye to all your twin brother's deeds? Which part still makes me to hang on to it? Please tell me!" salwa said with tears pouring down.

He was really hurt hearing the rejection from Abra. He has lost his crown, is it possible that Ibra will still treat him well? After all this time he always refused if his fiancee was asking for a relationship.

Abra was silent not knowing what to say. He already knew everything, but taking Salwa away was not the right choice. He would not be able to live quietly if the woman went with him. Everyone will come back to ruin his life.

And Salwa who saw Abra's silence said nothing more. It seemed that the man had no intention of carrying her. He felt sad because his feelings were unrequited. Is it possible that he is always destined to suffer? Is there not a little happiness for him?

The apartment bell rings. Abra immediately opened it. He was sure it was the courier who delivered the clothes to Salwa. While the woman was silent with a blank look, contemplating her fate was not as pretty as her face.

"It's clothes for you" said Abra, who had just arrived while handing over the pepper bag.

"Thank you" Salwa said after receiving it and immediately passed to the room.

He had to change his clothes immediately and leave this apartment. The woman did not want to linger here which would only further add to the wound in her heart. After changing clothes, Salwa came out of the room. He didn't find Abra on the couch. I don't know where that guy went. There was only his confidant who had spoken to Abra.

"Sorry, please tell Abra, thank you for helping me. Thanks for the clothes too. I gotta get going. I don't want my parents to worry" Salwa said, without waiting for an answer from the man.

Better like this. Maybe after this he will try to get away from Abra. The woman no longer wanted to bond with the man. Previously Salwa did want to be able to live with Abra and try to attract his attention, but seeing the determination of the man was all destroyed just like that.

"Goodbye, Abra. May you live happily."
