MELODY OF LOVE: Arrived Marriage
Cesspit Koma 19

After lunch, Alvin and Mia visit Wijaya's grandfather.

Today is Melody's schedule of looking after her grandfather-in-law. There was actually a sense of unease when he had to deal with Alvin like this. But he tried to hold her back out of respect for Mia. Melody knows how Mia feels about Alvin. Although he was late to realize, even knew all that after Mia told him, but he would keep his attitude. He doesn't hate Alvin for everything Alvin has done lately. It needs to be underlined once again, he did not isolate Alvin at all. He was disappointed in Alvin's attitude. Especially Alvin who hurt Yudha who was clearly fighting for Alvin.

This time, Melody is not alone in looking after Grandpa Wijaya. He was accompanied by Ayane. Ayane hasn't shown up in a while. Ayane was busy keeping house because he was left in the hospital.

As Yudha is on a business trip out of town, Ayanepun is asked to go to the hospital and help keep Melody safe.

Melody and Mia sit in the living room chair of Wijaya's grandfather's room. Wijaya's hospital room is quite spacious, there is a transparent divider between the living room and the patient bed of Wijaya's grandfather.

While Alvin and Chiyo's grandmother were sitting near Wijaya's grandfather who was lying weak.

"What is this, Bek?" Melody asked who had just received the white swipe pack from Mia.

"Moch. You like sweet things, don't you?" Ask Mia.

"She likes it, Mia." Answer Melody.

"Try it! I tried it, it felt so good." Tell Mia.

Melody ate the mochi that Mia brought. Also true. The sweet and tender taste of the mochi danced on his tongue.

"Thank you so much for bringing me this mochi." Melody.

"It was Alvin-senpai who took him, Mel."

Instantly, Melody instantly stopped chewing. He put down a crackle of mochi that was held in his hand.

"Why is it suddenly like that?" Asked Mia who was astonished by Melody's behavior.

Melody shook her head. He continued to chew his mochi and swallowed it with difficulty.

"It's still angry with him who managed to defeat Yudha in the struggle for the throne of the Emperor Group CEO?" Ask Mia.

"angry? I'm angry that Alvin beat Yudha in the race for Emperor Group CEO?" Ask Melody. Mia nodded. "Why should I be angry? Alvin is now more deserving of the throne of the Emperor Group. Yudha has been making trouble lately. It is only natural that the trust of the shareholders becomes doubtful." Obviously Melody.

It was honest from his heart. Yudha also asked him not to think too much about it. After all, Yudha alone was not upset or angry because he did not become the CEO of Wijaya's grandfather's successor, why should he be angry who clearly did not participate in the struggle for the throne?

But on top of that, he felt disappointed in Alvin.

After what Yudha did to Alvin, but Alvin was acting differently to Yudha. Even on him too. He feels that Alvin is currently very foreign to him. He doesn't recognize Alvin like this.

"Your rational mind is just like mine. But Mel, I feel like the three of us aren't the same as we used to be. I feel like we're getting further away now. Weren't we very close? Do you eat together often?" Said Mia.

"Mia, you don't know the big problem that's going on in the Kazehaya family. I can't tell you in detail what happened to you either. It's unethical because I'm just a daughter-in-law in this family. Regarding the three of us who are not like before, it is true. Not that I'll stay away forever, but I'm currently just holding back." Bright Melody.

"Confined?" Mia muttered not understanding.

"After several times Yudha and grandfather had attempted murder, I am now also the target. I was so afraid to set foot outside the hospital, what else without Yudha as I am today." Melody.

Mia widened both her eyes. Melody's going through something like this? Are the feelings often monitored and followed while in Miyagi true? Sometimes when he was out for a walk with Melody, he felt that there were always strange and suspicious people around him and Melody.

"Mails.." Mia tried to twist her brain to work out the reason why this could happen.

The usurpation of the throne and Yudha's ouster from the future successor?

If not for that, what else? Why would they want to take Melody and Yudha's lives for no reason? It must be because of those two things, right? The Throne of Emperor Group was always tempting.

So, is Alvin involved in this?

That is, at this time it is Alvin who is in power. Yudha who is predicted to be a successor can be defeated by Alvin who clearly does not have a business base. Mia knows that Alvin loves medicine. Slightly sad and sad to see Alvin began to rarely wear his doctor's suit.

Alvin was willing to give up his dream in the field of medicine. Is it because of the throne of the Emperor Group?

"Please grant my prayers Lord! Please don't let Alvin-senpai get involved in the usurpation of the throne in this heinous way! I still believe that Alvin-senpai is a good person." Inner Mia.

"I give up all decisions against you. Please believe it or not if my life and Yudha is threatened every day. Even my grandfather-in-law had been lying down for almost a month like that." Melody.

"I'm sorry, Mel.. I should have paid more attention to you. Sorry." Said Mia.

Melody hugged Mia. It seems that his best friend is feeling bad for him. He did not mind it either because he considered everyone had their own ideas, including Mia though.

"In addition, I am Yudha's wife. Yudha is Alvin's sister. I mean, I'm Alvin's brother-in-law. I refrained from honoring my husband, Yudha. He'd mind if I got too close to Alvin. Not only Alvin, he'd mind if I was close to another man." Melody.

"..." - ".Melody's reasoning was perfectly acceptable. Yudha was Melody's husband, and the husband figure was the wife's role model. Melody is just being a good wife.

"And again.."

"Again?" Ask Mia.

"I already know how you feel about Alvin. I'm keeping your feelings, too, Mia." Answer Melody. He tried to smile at Mia.

Mia tightened her hug on Melody. As a friend, Melody is trying to be a person who can respect the feelings of her best friend. Isn't Melody currently thinking more about the impact before doing anything?

That's the point Melody is getting older.

Mia feels defeated. She is childish because of her feelings for Alvin. He felt sorry for Alvin who was ignored by Melody. They want to be kind as before. However, things will not go back to the way they used to. In fact, the problem that is happening right now is indeed much more complicated than what his brain can catch.

"I'm not gonna let you die, Mel!" Said Mia.

"You are not God, do not go before Him!" Melody.

"I know, but I beg you not to give up on what you're going through right now! I'll take care of you and my niece-to-be when Yudha's not around." Said Mia.

"Arigato gozaimasu, Chantik Duck!"

Alvin and Chiyo's grandmother sat watching Wijaya's helpless grandfather.

The distance of the room of Wijaya's grandfather's bed with the living room where Melody and Mia are located is not far. Normal sounds will not be heard.

"Is there any development in Grandpa's condition, Grandma?" Ask Alvin.

"You're still worried about your grandfather? Pleasantry or even-even?" Ask Grandma Chiyo.

"The grandmother hurt my feelings." Alvin.

"Grandmothers can only hurt your feelings. Even your grandfather did it. You must be very vengeful with us, huh?"

Alvin speechless. Not recognized as Kazehaya's blood what else by the grandfather himself it feels super painful.

"Not to mention, after everything we've done to you. Now you know your mother's past how. We tried to hide it so you could live by raising your face straight ahead. But this time your mother was so outrageous. It's all time to be removed." Grandma Chiyo.

"A child cannot choose his parents." Alvin.

"But parents have the right to educate their children." Grandma Chiyo said.

"Are you trying to say that my mother didn't educate me well?" Ask Alvin.

"Why do you think that? You're so great at being able to achieve what you are today." Grandma Chiyo replied.

"That's a compliment or a satire, Grandma?"

"Grandson and grandfather both had sharp mouths. I thought you'd be different from Wijaya-san, your grandfather." Grandma Chiyo smiled gently at Alvin.

Alvin felt like a cool happy wind swept across his handsome face. The grandmother was trying to say that she looked like the grandfather? That means the grandmother really admitted that she is the granddaughter of Kazehaya Wijaya?

All this time people have always said that only Yudhah is a grandson who is very similar to his grandfather. All that Yudha has is a copy-paste of Kazehaya Wijaya. No one said it bore any resemblance to the grandfather. When she heard this talk from her grandmother, she felt very happy. To the heart if this is the right day to receive praise.

"How does it feel to be the Emperor Group's highest throne seat, Vin? You likey?" Ask Grandma Chiyo.

Alvin smiled faintly. "Absolutely don't like it. It's disgusting and uncomfortable." Answer Alvin.

"Dayou ne.."

Dayou ne: Right too.

"I wonder why so many people are eyeing this CEO position. But that means being ready to risk his life at any time." Alvin.

"When you occupy that hot seat, you will have power with unlimited money. In other words, you can buy everything with money. Except love of course." Grandma Chiyo said like this without looking at Alvin. He could not bear to say this by looking at Alvin directly. She said more like this while looking at her husband, Kazehaya Wijaya.

Alvin was silent for a while. The words of the grandmother penetrated his heart and mind. Now he knew that what he had done was just too naive.

You can buy everything with money except love.

The Emperor Group's supreme throne made him rich in a very fast time. He can buy a luxury house, expensive cars, or even increase the area of the Kazehaya International hospital building. But again, according to the word of the grandmother, he could not buy love.

Although he currently had everything, treasures and thrones, but making the woman he loved into his own was extremely difficult to do.

Melody looked at him with a cold look. It was so cold that it froze his heart.

The more frozen the day. If it continues like this, then it will be fragile for a long time too. Anything that is frozen, will be easily destroyed in one touch.

"If love cannot be obtained by possessions and power, if it is not the love I have bought with money, then I must force love to remain with me." Alvin.

"You're just gonna hurt him, Vin." Grandma Chiyo tried to advise Alvin.

"I know, but I'm sick of it too." Alvin clutched his chest.

"Making the one you love forced to stay with you is not true. Love is not like that. That love is born of a beautiful sincerity of heart."

"My love is sincere towards him, Grandma."

"Silence and obsession are two very different things, Vin. You know, there's no disgusting thing in the world to have to avenge the love of an unloved person."

Alvin was silent again.

Replying to the love of an unloved person is the most disgusting thing in the world?

If Melody returns her feelings when Melody doesn't love her, is that disgusting?

Alvin laughed in his heart. He laughs at himself. He knows that Melody loves Yudha very much, but she still wants to get Melody's love.

"I just love him so much. I just want to get love from him. I just want to be with him until the end of my life. I just want to make love with him. I just wanted to laugh with him, like before, like when there was no Yudha present among us. Melody gives you the opportunity to see the world in a better way. I used to hate a world so unfair to breathe. A world that chokes my neck and tortures me to die slowly... But Melody comes with all its simplicity. With a fleeting smile, the noose on my neck felt loose and slowly vanished. He was like a source of life to me. I have a reason to survive in this world because of him... When he chose Yudha, the lost rope came back, reappeared, and again strangled my neck. It's even starting to paralyze my hands and feet. Makes me helpless... I need him to save me. I was willing to turn into a monster like this to get it back to me... Is that really gonna be disgusting like Grandma said? Am I just obsessed? No, I'm sure my love is very sincere towards him. I just have to prove how sincere my love for her is, right?" Inner Alvin.

"You just fell silent, Vin. You think of something?" Ask Grandma Chiyo.

"Come, Obaa-sama. I'm just thinking of a way to show you how sincere my love is." Answer Alvin.

Yes, Obaa-sama: No, Grandma.

"ALVIN!"
