Harumi couldn't bear the pain of knowing the fact that was going on right now "Please listen to my explanation, this isn't what's being reported and what..."
"And What ?!" between the voices of someone who sounded familiar from behind Ameera's back
Elena.
"What do you want to try to explain to us ?" Elena approached with a flat gaze towards her daughter-in-law
Harumi was shocked, her face was completely unable to hide her guilty feelings to those two women whom she deeply respected.
They were silent for a moment, and they just looked at each other waiting for an explanation that came from Harumi's lips. But, stupidly. I don't know why the woman's lips are so funny. This should be a good opportunity to explain everything he has experienced.
His breathing was irregular and his chest grew stifling. The gaze of the two women so cornered Harumi.
It leaves him mired in an uncomfortable situation.
"Alright, if you really want to explain everything. I'm still kind enough to listen to you." Ameera's chimpanzee is still in a sniffy tone
Trying to open her lips again, Harumi felt herself being forced to become a strong figure who remained standing instead of falling down. In his current state, his true strength was within him.
He wants to get everything straight. All the secrets that were already wide open and the lies that surrounded her marriage to Anton.
"Regarding the widespread news, it's not entirely true. That's not how it happened. I-I and Liam-we do have a difficult relationship to explain. But, I really feel guilty for hiding this to you guys." Harumi paused, she clenched her hand holding the pain in her heart. Not easy, just a little mistake then it will all end in vain. "I knew him a few months ago."
Ameera sighed "then you instantly fell in love with her, because that man was very rich, right ? No love can grow that fast, Rumi. It's just an obsession, your relationship IS JUST AN OBSESSION THAT BRINGS HAVOC" his tone was loud and piercing.
Elena immediately grabbed Ameera's arm, the middle-aged woman trying to calm her down "Enough, Meera. Let me talk to Harumi. Come inside. Calm yourself." Elena pulled the daughter's arm, then rubbed her shoulder gently.
He realized, how the condition of Ameera at this time. The woman was deeply troubled by the fate of her marriage. The look on her face was not as calm and happy as it used to be, Ameera changed. Only anger continues to dominate it. The woman just wants to keep her husband and three children who are now being snatched from her.
There is no more Ameera who is friendly and full of tenderness. His eyes looked swollen, as if he had been crying for days. Wrinkles began to faintly appear in every corner of his face. The black shadow under her eyes was clearly visible, that the woman almost never slept. His performance is full of pressure is not as perfect as before, even Ameera who used to always take care of his appearance even though he already has three children. Now all faded in an instant, no makeup, no jewelry in the slightest adorning his body parts, his hair rolled completely back. A few fine strands of her hair were left dangling on her cheeks.
His face was pale, but Ameera could still seem so strong "Listen to me. Anton may not be the perfect husband, many mistakes he's done to you. Robert, my husband is not a perfect man. He was stubborn, ugly and sometimes hurt me. But, I love Robert so much and have never once to avenge him let alone betray him. It hurt my feelings, but it never crossed my mind to complain, That's My Commitment. That's A MARRIAGE. Probably a perfect guy out there. But, as long as you are still in the circle of marriage is never justified even though there is INFIDELITY. We as women have HIGH SELF-ESTEEM, a commitment of misrepresentation that I'm maintaining." The woman's gaze repeatedly pierced Harumi.
Ameera chooses to leave Elena alone with Harumi before she becomes emotionally consumed. After that, Ameera pulled herself with a fierce raging feeling to be able to survive. The tension continued to intensely hang in Elena's cold gaze.
"Come in" Elena let Harumi inside and sat down in the living room
Harumi still felt her body tremble, stepping into the house she knew so comfortably and quietly. Now it changes in an instant like a Roller Coaster ride that shakes it.
Right now, Harumi was sitting opposite her mother-in-law. The atmosphere of tension continued to follow in his footsteps, the silence was so silent when Harumi could not afford to have to start again this conversation.
The woman was in a state of shock and agitation.
When Harumi wanted to open her lips, Elena first started the conversation "Do you love that man ?" elena asked, her voice low and starting to corner
Faintly, Elena smirked obliquely "Still clear in my memory. Didn't I ask you the same question a few years ago, when Anton first introduced you to me. And you answered him firmly, with the same answer as now. Of course you remember, don't you ? Now what I want to know. Are you really the type of woman who is very easy to get swept away with all the persuasions of the Men ? So that makes you easily fall in love" now the woman's lips curved and flush the provocation that he threw there Harumi
Harumi was speechless not giving her response, but her eyes were inseparable from Elena.
"Why Rumi ? You're silent. Then you justify it. Do you realize that the relationship you are living with that man will be bad for the people around you ? Or you're just trying to close your eyes."
"That's not true, I've never turned a blind eye to any of this. If I just wanted to put my happiness first, my footsteps wouldn't have brought me here. Our relationship did start at the wrong time, with conditions that everyone did not allow. But, my decision is not something that can be underestimated. I decided to vote with her, because there was nothing left to defend in my marriage to Anton." Harumi looked at the cold Elena, although Harumi noticed her nano-looking gaze started to blur with tears "I and Anton are unhappy, We just hurt each other. Anton wants something I can't afford to give him and there's something else I can't take."
Elena closed her eyes, she swallowed her saliva "I was once in the same position as you, where I had to choose a path that was completely unfavorable to anyone. Once I make a mistake of any magnitude, then the path I choose will continue to complicate me. No one can blame LOVE, even something that is easy to say it can come at any time even under different conditions." Slowly opening his eyes again, the glint reappeared. A memory of Elena who used to be Roseanne where she had to choose between two different paths. But, his choice was not as easy as he had imagined.
"I once loved a man I should never have let into my life. The man who changed my life, the man who introduced me to happiness and sadness and a thousand mistakes. The man who made me blind to love, until I no longer cared about his status. Seizing her from the other woman's side, becoming a thorn in her household." Elena felt the pain return to her chest. The pain he had felt first, the guilt he still felt until now.
Harumi stared with many questions lingering in her mind, frowning "W-what you mean ?"
Elena returned her gaze, she was silent for a moment. "You must have understood my explanation before I met Teddy Riandra. I once had a relationship with a married man. A very rich man. But that's not what attracted me to him. The man made me feel a sense of comfort, tranquility and security that I had never felt in my entire life. From our relationship, I gave birth to two sons."
For a moment Harumi was pecking at the place of "Two Princes ?" a strange thing felt intensely stirring his mind. This was the first time he had listened to her in-laws' past stories. A piece after piece of the great secret he had just learned "Mom, I mean,...Anton has a brother ?"
Elena nodded "Yes, Anton has a younger brother. The truth is, Anton himself does not know the identity of his sister at all."
"How is it possible, you never say anything..."
"Even I just told Ameera this a few days ago."
Harumi took a deep breath because suddenly the air around her was thinning. It's all the more confusing for him "I'm confused.it's still hard for me...."
"I'm telling you this now, because it's time you found out the truth. It is time, you must know who my other Son is. You must really want to know, don't you ?!" Elena looked at Harumi with a lump of vindication that was certain this would be painful for her.
Harumi did not react, meaning yes.
"First you'll find out who Anton's real father is" Elena held back for a while until she finally re-opened her lips "He is....Roberto Alessio Seymour."
A black cloud felt so great approaching Harumi that, the cold froze all over her body. "S-Seymour ?" mentioning the big name, Harumi's lips felt stiff. His heart raged so great. He looked at Elena with his eyes widened while shaking his head "T-impossible, impossible.so ? Li..."
"Well, William Xaverio Seymour." Elena interrupted straightforwardly "Liam is MY SON. And of course you can relate to Anton. The in-blood relationship between the two."
