My Mom Wants to Mate
10. He Cheated

***

Karen hastily cut. "Not yet, I'm still ori. And don't! I don't want to."

"His love is the same as someone, lest you forget the land yes, brother!"

"Yes, Ken. If you hadn't come, I might have run out. I didn't think he'd be like that."

Kendrik's hands clenched, he felt an overflowing emotion again. "Ggrrrhhhmmm ...."

"Udah, don't get emotional! What matters is that I'm okay."

"You haven't seen him again, have you?"

"Not yet, Ken."

"don't know yet? It's obvious what a man he is. Why don't you know yet? Stayin, Brother!"

Although he is creepy and almost snatches away Karen's most precious thing, but again logic is defeated by his feelings. The purity had already struck him a little.

"We'll see later. You know that people can change. Who knows if he'll change."

Is this a bego or what? It's clear that his behavior is so, still behind as well. Women are hard to use logic. (Cendric).

"If it's an ingrained nature and habit, are you sure it will change that quickly?"

Karen did not answer.

"Look, as long as you're in contact with Tora, you should stay with me. Meet him he should be with me."

"But, Ken, he's my future husband. He proposed to me that time."

"That's a personal proposal, right, not yet an official proposal with a witness? And again, if you're the wife he loves, he should respect you and not try to destroy you."

The next day, at Kendrik College

Kendrik attended college as usual. When he came out of the lecture hall, someone was already waiting there, a girl named Monica.

"Yuk, eat at the rektora deket culinary park!" bring Monica.

"okay." Kendrik with Monica walk to the place in question.

The Kendrik campus building is not far from the rectorate. In addition to all the student affairs he could solve quickly, he also made a culinary garden in front of the rector of his reserve dining area. At least once a week she would eat there.

"Ken, what, we're not going long march?" Monica opened the conversation that she was going to talk to Kendrik.

They both follow the same unit of student activity, karate. The two karatekas became the caretakers of the shadow even though in the hierarchy of the organization, their names were only listed as members.

Kendrik and Monica are both sincerely devoted and willing to help all karate activities. They are often thought to be dating, when in reality they are not. But actually, Monica does have feelings for Kendrik.

"There's still a lot of consideration." Kendrik pulled out a notebook.

"Evacation car that we already have new 1. It's fixed. Our finances are again critical, we can not move freely."

"Soliciting funds from the rectorate?"

"Long march is not an activity as big as kejurnas. I think we should withdraw funds from participants."

"Hufh, please just the one who holds the finances, Ken. We all know it's not right."

"Mon, Mon, who am I? I'm just a busy member, I don't have any position. And you know it's the same deket sensei Elmo. Let's help him as much as we can without disturbing his position."

Suddenly, an unpleasant sight was presented in front of Kendrik. Far across there was a man eating with a college student.

For others, the activity is normal. For Kendrik, this sight raised his blood. That man is Tora. Their place was a bit far away, but Kendrik's sharp eyes were already able to capture the figure of the man.

She cheated on my sister? Wait, I can't draw my own conclusions. They could've just been like me and Monica. (Cendric).

He pulled out his phone and photographed what he saw. To get a clear picture of the man, he had to zoom 10x on his camera.

A little blur, but I'm sure Koreng knows this picture. (Cendric).

"Ken, why are you taking pictures?"

"Now, I just want to take a photo. You familiar?"

"Yes, he's my same class. Name's Ratih. She's the same boyfriend."

"Daughter?"

I don't know if it's her boyfriend or not. I said it was to prevent you from having the same special feeling as Ratih. (Monica).

"Ehm, I think so. I used to see him walk with that guy."

"Not necessarily, Miss. We also often eat together, in fact we are not a couple. We're just partners in the activity unit."

He was now thinking about how to figure out what kind of relationship they were in.

"You, do you like Ratih?"

Fyuh, leg. (Monica).

"You took a picture of him out of curiosity with Ratih."

"No, I have no intention of going out. As long as my sister isn't married, I won't date."

Whats? So, do I have any hope? Should I wait? (Monica).

Monica had hoped all this time, even though Kendrik's feelings were not yet known.

"Ken, here's a draft of his long march proposal." Monica didn't get an answer. "Ken, hello, how about daydream?"

"Eh sorry sorry. What'sthis?"

It was Monica's turn not to answer. He let Kendrik read for himself the title on the front page of the proposal.

"Then I thought about Train? Speaking of which he did not want to date before his brother married, but look at Ratih, your eyes are so jerky."

Kendrik seemed not to hear Monica's words, he was too focused on thinking about how to know the relationship between Ratih and Tora. "Mon, do you have Ratih's number?"

"No!" Monica lied, actually she had.

"In Chatsapp there's a class group?"

"There's."

Flippant, why did I say there was? (Monica).

"Well, there's a Ratih number, right? Please forward to me yes! It's important."

With a heavy heart, Monica gave Ratih's mobile number. Kendrik hurriedly finished his meal and left the culinary garden. He rushed to Karen's office.

***

Arriving there, the employees who already know Kendrik invite him to go directly to the 2nd floor in Karen's room.

"Hi, Ken. What's up?"

"The two talk to you."

Karen gave Inda a code to get out of the room. Inda whose eyes were still fixed on Kendrik immediately left the room.

My boss's sister is really cute, lamar I dong, Dik Kendrik. (Industry).

"What are you talking about, Ken?"

"Ehm ...." Kendrik hesitates where to start. "You're still in contact with Tora?"

"No."

"That means you broke up?"

"Not yet, I keep my distance. Later if I've forgotten the same event yesterday, I contact him again."

Oh, my God, still want contact? (Cendric).

Kendrik is actually very upset with his brother who has not been able to release the immoral man. However, he was also unable to set Karen to that extent. Even parents should be able to give privacy to their children, especially Kendrik is just a brother who became the head of the family.

However, Karen also has the right to determine her life. Kendrik will only open up to reality. "I saw Tora walk the same way as a student at my college."

Although the image of Tora in Karen's eyes had dropped, hearing what Kendrik said still made her sick.

"They're walking? You sure?"

Kendrik pulled out his phone and showed a camera shot.

"What is their relationship? You knew?"

Kendrik.

"Do you think they're friends or lovers?"

"I can't be sure. So what, Brother? Still want contact?"

Karen nodded. "Yes, Ken, we don't know what their relationship is. Who knows they're just temen."

Kendrik gritted his teeth. "Okay, I'm going home first, brother. I'll see you at home."

He also passed. After Kendrik left, Karen opened the Faecesbook app. What he was aiming for was Tora's Faecesbook page. He had uploaded a photo during his college hearing some time ago.

From the date, the photos were immediately uploaded the afternoon after the trial. He marked his boarding friends. But a photo with Karen was not uploaded.
