Arthur was still standing at the entrance to the balcony and gazing at Dustin and Sierra who were currently shocked by Arthur's arrival.
'' Is no one able to explain to me what is going on?'' Said Arthur.
Sierra knew at this moment that Arthur was angry, because of his sharp and emphatic tone. Sierra came and approached Arthur.
'' Dad, don't be angry.'' Sierra tried to catch Arthur.
'' Tell me what you mean talk to Dustin, Sierra.'' Said Arthur.
This is the first time Arthur is angry and mentions the name Sierra directly, Sierra knows Arthur really angry at this time. But she doesn't want Arthur to darken her eyes and beat Dustin, she doesn't want her husband and son to fight.
Dustin came in and closed the balcony door, then he walked over to Arthur and firmly said..
'' I love Qilin, Dad..'' Dustin and Arthur dealt Dustin his first blow for 27 years.
'' Daddy!'' Screeched Sierra and cried.
Fortunately, Dustin's room was located on another floor where neither one from the Edwardian family nor the Khan family occupied it.
'' What did you say just now? Tell me what you just said, huh?!!'' Said Arthur.
'' I'm a man..''
'' Dustin Xavier Edward!'' Arthur snapped, and Dustin closed his eyes hearing his long name called the father, because at this time Arthur had raised his hand to hit Dustin.
'' Dad, please don't hit Dustin.'' Sierra said.
Not once in his life did Sierra beat his two children, he always loved them and educated them properly to the point of not using any violence, Justin and Dustin grew up to be kind and loving children to their parents.
'' You're protecting him? What he did was wrong, honey.'' Said Arthur.
'' I know he's wrong, but please listen first.don't finish using violence, we can talk good either.'' Sierra Say.
Sierra wiped the blood on the corner of Dustin's lips with a heart that felt sick, she was a mother who loved her children very much.
'' Does it hurt, son?'' Sierra said, but Dustin smiled and shook his head.
'' Tell me what this all means, Dustin.. Daddy never taught you to be a criminal, or a thief. Mommy and Daddy treat you and your brother well and fairly, we never favoritism towards you.'' Said Arthur.
'' Who knew my heart would fall on the same person, whom my sister loved, my dad. No one knows where the heart will cling, nor do I want it to happen. But that feeling presented itself.'' Dustin said with the pain in his heart.
'' I know I was wrong, so I'm going to leave so that this feeling that could destroy our family is gone.'' Dustin closed his eyes.
Arthur looked at his son with mixed feelings, he was disappointed.but indeed Dustin was right. It was just why it had to happen to those two sons.
'' Daddy don't worry, I also love big brother, and my love for him more than anything even more than my love for myself, I won't break my brother's heart, dad.'' Dustin and a tear escaped from his eye.
Arthur massaged his forehead and to tell the truth that right now he was also wiping away his tears, he did not expect that one of his sons would experience something like this. Sierra could only sob on the couch hearing Dustin's words.
'' But I can't leave now.Sister will question my departure later, he will be disappointed in me and I don't want that to happen. So I will leave when brother and sister and Qilin get married.'' Dustin again.
Arthur walked over to Dustin, then took Dustin on both shoulders and said..
'' You lied to your daddy and mommy, right son?'' Arthur and Dustin nodded.
'' No, Dad, I'll bury this feeling myself.'' Dustin looked at Arthur.
Arthur walked up and took Sierrra and put Sierra's hand on Dustin's head, then his hand he put on Sierra's hand, and spoke again.
'' Swear in the name of your mommy and daddy, that you will throw away those feelings.'' Arthur said with glass.
'' I. I. Dustin Xavier Edward swore, on behalf of my mother Sierra Leona and my father Arthur Edward.'' Dustin said with his mouth trembling with the cry.
'' Say it out loud!'' Said Arthur, and Sierra was sobbing in Arthur's arms.
'' On behalf of my mother Sierra Leona and my father Arthur Edward.. I Dustin Xavier Edward swore, will throw away my love for Qilin.'' Dustin said out loud.
Arthur hugged Dustin after the oath was spoken, and Dustin's tears just shed. Arthur must make Dustin swear, because if he doesn't, Arthur is afraid that there will be a civil war going on just because of women.
'' Hold your oath, son.'' Arthur and Dustin nodded.
'' Daddy will ask your brother to marry Qilin immediately, so that you can leave faster and not get hurt to see them together.'' Said Arthur, after breaking his arms from Dustin.
'' Not next month?'' Dustin.
'' Daddy will advance it to next week.'' Arthur and Dustin nodded.
'' Rest.it's already night.'' Said Arthur again.
'' Come, baby.'' Arthur said to Sierra who still occasionally cries.
'' We love you so much, son..'' Said Sierra and Dustin idling with a smile.
Sierra and Arthur finally came out of Dustin's room, and Dustin closed his eyes and then his tears flowed again.
' This sick Qilin. It feels to love you that I cannot have. It is not distance that is a barrier, nor is it time. ' Dustin's inner, and the thunders sat on the floor against the sofa of the hotel room.
Dustin sobbing alone hiding his face behind his arms, his love story that he has not even had time to fight, must he kill and bury himself, imagine how sick Dustin is today.
He even had to swear to carry the name of his mother's father, just to prevent the growth of feelings of love that had not even sprouted.
Meanwhile somewhere else..
After Arthur delivers Sierra to his room and calms him down, Arthur searches for Justin in his room. Arthur knew Justin was definitely not asleep because he always stayed up late.
" Ding dong!" Justin's room bell rang.
And sure enough, Justin was still not asleep, he was still sitting with his laptop companion, then where was Qilin?? Qilin along with Rena, in the other room.
Justin woke up and saw from the door hole, he saw Arthur standing in front of his room and he immediately opened the door.
" What's up dad?" Ask Justin.
" It's nothing, it's just we need to talk, son." Arthur said, with a calm face.
Arthur is the one who can hide his anxiety and whatever he feels, making anyone unable to guess what Arthur is thinking.
Arrhur sat on the couch and Justin sat down in front of Arthur.
" Daddy is confused where to start.." Said Arthur, and it made Justin frown.
" Can't your marriage speed up, son?" Arthur arrived.
" why? Hasn't a month been including fast, dad?" Justin said.
" your sister.. " Arthur said hanging.
" What happened to Dustin??" Justin asked, becoming curious.
