My name is Ayu
Chapter 29

"What's the second reason, O?" I kept asking for Dio's reply which came back just silent as his hands unceasingly stroked my hair gently.

Dio sighed. It seems hard for him to tell me but he has to say it because sooner or later I have to know. "So when we got caught with both of my parents, I was faced with two choices. You don't know because you were in the bathroom."

Dio looked back at me in silence. Her brown eyes are very shady. Without me noticing my hand outstretched and gently rubbing her handsome face. If I had a son from Dio it would be as handsome as him. Hush. I banish that beautiful delusion. I don't want to hope anymore. Especially imagining a wonderful future with Dio. I feel like I am not worthy. Who me? His mother's family is rich like this especially the family papa?

I can only enjoy the moments together with him like now. Yeah, I like Dio. I don't know since when the position of God replaced by Dio. Maybe that liking was there because we went through a hard time together.

"Then?" I'm back to charge for the continuation of Dio's story. If we are allowed to look at each other like this it is not impossible that last night's events will be repeated again. We are still young. Still covered in lust.

Dio smile. He moved his body and kissed my lips fast.

"Father, Mama and I are deliberating. Find a way out of trouble. Papa suggested that we just compensate you for the size of a luxury house. When Mama said you were a virgin back then, my human side came out. I don't want to follow Papa's advice. Money cannot restore your virginity lost to me."

"I rejected Papa's suggestion and said that I was willing to take responsibility. Papa initially disagreed. He had already planned my marriage to Sheila, my boyfriend who is also the son of Papa's best friend. Papa insisted on taking me to your house to negotiate with your parents the amount of compensation that He had to spend. I argued with Papa and I said confidently that I would marry you whatever the risk was."

"Papa is planning to announce who I am at the company and intends to appoint me as director. If I were to marry you, that position would be Papa pending to an unspecified time limit."

"Then did you choose to marry me?" I'm not asking but affirming Dio's words.

"Yes. I'm taking that post off. Papa was angry with me. He said that if everything could be done with money, then I would marry Sheila when she came home and her friendship with Papa Sheila was maintained, it was the best way out. I am committed to my choice. If you are not a good girl, I will choose to obey Papa's words. But you're the girl I took her own virginity, which you've been guarding all this time. I'd be haunted by a lifetime of guilt if I obeyed Papa."

"Shortly get out of the bathroom. Our negotiations are off. And how shocked I was that Papa got us married that day. Then Papa agreed to my decision. I feel very happy because in the end Papa appreciates the decision I took when all this time I was only looked at one eye."

Dio turned his body to look at me. A glimmer of guilt and regret flashed in his eyes.

"It turns out that every decision has consequences. I just found out after our wedding. Papa said that our marriage is only limited to serial marriage. If I want to formalize our marriage, I must marry Sheila first and make Sheila my first wife. I have no choice Yu. If I don't do it, Papa will destroy your pride and your family by paying for it for a mansion. I won't accept that." Dio's brown eyes are now glazed.

"But I didn't agree with Yu's decision. Marrying you was the best decision I ever made. You have made me spirit to reach my ideals to make furniture. I'm not sure if my furniture is worth selling. Yes even though only 1 piece that was practiced already made me happy." this time Dio's eyes sparkled happily.

Unlike Dio, I who now change into moody. Dio instantly noticed the change in my mood.

"Why?"

"Then what about our house? Papa will definitely carry out his original plan of marrying you to Sheila. What are you gonna do?" this question that has been stuck in my mind for several months has finally been answered.

"I don't know yet, Yu. But one thing is for sure, no matter what happens I will definitely not let you go. You are my wife in the eyes of God. You will forever be my responsibility."

"If Sheila comes home you will marry her as Papa asks?"

Dio wiped the tears on my cheek. "Sorry, Yu. That was my deal with Papa."

"But you may not obey Papa's will. It's your life. And you're living it." I realize my words now contain emotions. The romantic romance between us is gone. Change the ego and emotion.

"I could not have obeyed Papa, Yu. But this is Sheila, Yu. Sheila's my boyfriend. We have been dating for over 4 years. I'm sorry, Yu. but I love Sheila."

I was shocked by Dio's words. I pulled myself away from him. I got up and stood up. "I'm gonna take a shower and get ready."

I went straight into the bathroom. I don't mind Dio calling my name and saying sorry so many times.

I sit in the toilet sitting. I covered my face with both hands. Trying to stop the tears that have been shed since.

Stupid ayu. Until whenever Dio won't love you. Awake, Yu. Dio already had Sheila in his heart. You're the one who came into Dio's life and ruined their relationship. Don't ever expect Dio to return your feelings.

Wait, feelings? So that makes my heart really hurt right now because I have feelings for Dio. Oh my God... Why did I let myself open my heart to Dio?

I splashed my body with cold water. I wish the cold water would cool the mind of my hot, emotionally-burned heart. It turns out that if you get angry then take a bath, my emotions slowly disappear. I dried my body and put on the kebaya in the bathroom. I want to get out of the bathroom well dressed and just make-up.

I opened the bathroom door slowly. Dio was still waiting for me in the room.

"Yes..." Dio came up to me and held my hand.

"That's it. I don't want to talk about it anymore. All decisions I make are with you. I can't do anything about it. I'm sorry to have been emotional too. I should have known myself more." I let go of Dio's handrails and walked towards the dresser.

"You don't talk like that, Yu. But now you are my wife. Want to marry siri or officially still you're my wife. You're still my responsibility, Yu. I-"

I cut Dio's words. I don't want to cry anymore and ruin the make up. "Not to continue, please. All decisions I make are with you. Even if in the end you choose to stay with Sheila, I'm sincere. I'll also go back to God."

"meaning? God is married, Yu. You're gonna be his second wife and let go of our marriage?"

I put mascara that I have been difficult to wear since I keep opening my eyes to hold back tears.

"Last I met God, he said he was going to divorce his wife to come back with me. Our position is now 1-1. There's no grudge for my betrayal just yet. After you release me, I will hold the hand of God as I used to. And. I won't let go of it again."

My words were like a blow to Dio. Yes, even if it was just a threat, I wouldn't really do it. How could I possibly damage the God's household just for the sake of my happiness. I then left Dio speechless since then. I joined the Dio family at the reception and prevented my tears from spilling due to the emotional turmoil in the chest.
