Not A Perfect Marriage
CHAPTER 70 is getting more complicated

Riko's residence now feels cold and full of emptiness. After Jihan came home, these four people immediately started a very sensitive conversation.

Amanda stared disillusionedly at Rio who was like the dumbest person in the world. Sena explained everything and Sena also admitted all her mistakes and she wanted to make what Angel asked for.

"Are you sure of your decision?" riko asked fraudulently.

"Yes, I am Rio's first wife and it will be easy to take care of everything. Please believe me, give me a chance to make amends?"

"Alright, now that you're sleeping it's night." tell Riko who immediately grabbed Amanda's right hand, telling her to go to the room.

After Riko and Amanda leave, it seems that there is no disagreement with Rio.

"You want to look for face?" accuse Rio. Sena stared flat at Rio and somehow she wanted to slap Rio.

"No, relying on you is tantamount to suicide" Sena said flatly and straight off the couch. Rio's clucking annoyed at being belittled by Sena.

Room Riko Amanda. 01:00 am

Riko gently stroked Amanda's sleeping top of the head. Her pale face implied that she was very tired with all of this. Amanda just went to bed after Riko asked her to swallow sleeping pills.

"It's my fault, sorry." said Riko regretting having trusted Rio too much and not listening to Arfan.

"May there be no more problems."

...

It did not feel like it was morning again and the burden on the shoulders felt increasingly heavy, what is this thing called fighting for life? I don't know, all have been outlined and inevitably have to undergo the scenario that has been set by God.

.. Amanda Riko's house/Angel's room.

Angel saw her smile when her little son woke up and immediately whined for ASI.

"You hungry? uh. mama's son is getting bigger." Angel positioned her body to breastfeed Kevin and this little angel smiled happily.

"Darling, tomorrow if mama's not around you don't fuss? you have to be a strong boy, you won't let anyone hurt you even if you don't, you calm down well, they just want to hurt you not you."

As if understanding, Kevin grasped the finger of Angel's hand that was playing his hand. Angel felt the tiny hand grip was full of affection.

"You love me same mom? Mama loves you more, you live mama, grow healthy well son, mama does not want you to be like your Papa, om Arfan or grandfather the most important is your happiness, you must be happy! money can be found, but happiness is within yourself. Keep smiling, baby."

Angel kisses Kevin's head with affection. Angel didn't want to spend a second with Kevin. He does not know what will happen at this time. Maybe one second from now his life will be over.

"Mama's little prince."

...

Arfan Room.

Arfan looked at his reflection in the mirror. His disheveled face signified that he could not sleep and the burden of thoughts on his head made an uneasy feeling in his body.

"Can't I do anything? Surprise for mama seems to have to be canceled, well, too bad I've been out a lot of money."

Arfan sighed, thinking he could celebrate Amanda's birthday could go according to his plan. Arfan wants to make this special occasion for his foster mother.

Arfan has been thinking about it for a long time even Arfan has rented the building from far away but what can be done, what can be done, this situation does not allow for the event and certainly Amanda will reject the event hard because she is very affectionate with Angel and does not want Angel to feel on a trivial.

"Bye-bye my savings."

Arfan tried to explain the money he had spent. Arfan pensively for a while then sighed heavily.

"It makes my head dizzy, I don't know what Rio's thinking right now. Why do I have a sister like her? has his brain started to diminish."

Arfan rushed to shower. Today there was a morning meeting and Rio was relying on him for all the affairs in the office.

...

Jasmine resto. 11:00.

"It's your pay" one man told Alex's boss. The man with a neat appearance in a luxurious suit stared hatefully.

"Do it right, keep the woman away. I don't care what way you're going to do it, which is clear she won't be ruining my daughter's life again if she has to kill her! your men are not good at it, I paid a lot!"

"All right, I'm not gonna play around anymore. I'll do it with my own hands."

"Don't waste any more time or you'll be a corpse!"

"Father!" that voice made this neatly dressed man turn his head. This man was surprised by his arrival.

"Cause? you go quickly!" drive Deren to the man. The man immediately left along with Sena who was now beside Deren.

"So who?" asked Sena who was horrified to see a man with a big face with a fierce face and a tattoo on his temple.

"not nobody. Tumben you asked to meet at the restaurant? You said meeting at 12 is still 11, huh?" deren says switching the conversation, Deren doesn't want Sena to know everything.

"Papa is already here, or.. lest Papa want to date a woman first before meeting me?" Sena stared ignorantly at Deren. Deren looked at the smile on Sena's lips and wanted to continue seeing that smile. Deren himself already knows what has happened to Sena and also the anxiety disorder in his dream.

"No, I just want to relax. What was? is everything okay?"

Sena's face now changed and made Deren anxious.

"Ummm.. Pa. Actually Sena needs Papa's help, Papa want to help Sena? Sena please?"

"What are you doing? what do you want Papa to help?"

"Find a lawyer who works fast. I want to take care of Angel's marriage to Rio in order to get the marriage book."

Deren just looked at Sena with a meaningful look.

"You sure?"

"I know Papa must know my feelings but it's important that Rio trust me again and want to spend time with me, Angel already has Kevin."

"Well, if it's your will."

"Thank you."

"All right, let's eat what? Papa's hungry."

...

Abandoned building.

Alex stared hatefully at this Boss of his. She blatantly says she will kill Angel if the mission to keep Angel away from her family is unsuccessful.

"It's not him but you're going to die!"

"Just try, you touch me and your brother is about to die, remember Alex your family's life is in my hands! You love her, don't you? you're a murderer, you can't kidnap him and make him yours?"

Alex was silent. I want it to feel like Alex stabbed this guy in front of him with a knife that he brought but all must be thrown away the thought, he does not want to harm Angel or his family.

"Do it right! at least make Rio jealous of Angel or you can make her pregnant with your child. Ck.. where you might be able to do it." Trifling this guy who knows Alex's anti-do like "it" with just any girl.

"Shut up! Don't touch him! give me some more time."

"Honey your time is a little, use that time well or I myself will do it. You know I prefer blood, take care of him or you'll see his corpse!"

The man immediately left Alex. The man Alex immediately punched the wall in annoyance.

"DAMN! OHHHAAAAHHHH!!!" alex shouted annoyed.

"I have to what? I'd better be honest, it'll be easier."

Alex immediately contacts Angel and tells her everything, hoping Angel will believe and start to stay away from Rio and his family.

...

3 Days passed.

Rio was wide-eyed to see a man who was kissing Angel's lips in the garden. Rio squeezed the paper in his hand with a look of wrathful face.

He still couldn't believe what he was seeing. A piece of paper in a bouquet of blood-red roses someone sent this morning showed what surprised him. the piece of paper was inscribed with the word telling Rio to go to the park at 9am and also the truth about Angel playing with another man.

"Why do you want to be my legal wife, if you yourself play crazy behind my back?"

Rio who wanted to approach Angel stopped because his phone rang.

"Who the hell!" annoyed Rio who instantly reached into his pants pocket.

"Damn?" without a second thought Rio picked up the phone call.

Rio was listening to Sena while looking at Angel with a man she did not know. Rio observed every move of the man.

"You finished well, I'm proud of you."

Rio let out a long sigh then looked for Angel's contact number and called her straight away.

"Where are you?" rio asked while looking at Angel's movements.

"In the park, why?" angel answered without any burden. Rio smiled faintly hearing that. Angel was honest.

"Oh, who's the same?"

"Friend, why are you asking like that? what are you gonna say?" said Angel who began to raise his tone as if he did not like it.

Rio was able to clearly see the man who was with Angel was whiter than him even from his posture, Rio lost away from the man and if Angel is playing with fire with the man then it breaks Rio's heart.

"Back home!" tell Rio coldly and furiously when he sees the man hugging Angel from behind.

"Ta..?"

"Now! Kevin's fever!" rio said lying and immediately turned off the phone. Rio was still watching the panicked Angel, he spoke to the man as if begging to drive him home.

After seeing Angel and the man leaving on a motorbike, Rio rushed to his car.

An hour earlier.

"You sure?" alex asked Angel who was writing on a piece of paper.

"Yes." Yeah." Angel placed the piece of paper on a bouquet of blood red roses. Angel feels it's the best, he doesn't want anything to happen to Kevin.

"I'm sorry I can't help you."

"It's okay, like this is more than enough. Thank you, maybe if it wasn't for you, I would have been lifeless and couldn't have seen my son. I've decided to move to France and I'm sorry I can't return your feelings."

"You helped me too, didn't you? I'll send it."

"I leave it to the security guard."

.. flash end...

Amanda Riko's House.

Sena was very happy that Angel's request was finally fulfilled. Now Angel has become her legal wife Rio.

"Rio?"

Rio sat on the sofa beside Sena. Sena looked in surprise at Rio who looked annoyed.

"Why are you?. eh?" Sena was shocked as Rio peeked his left cheek. Rio did not say a word, it might be a small gift for having done something Rio could not do.

"Have you called Angel?"

"Back home soon too."

"Oh. Are you happy now?" ask Sena to make sure.

"Maybe, do I still deserve you?" rio asked with no expression on his face. That question left Sena confused, as if Rio was confirming something.

"you think? ah. Never mind, you alone can deduce all this and it's too late to ask that silly question."

Both are silent. They are busy with their own thoughts. Soon Angel entered the house in a hurry. Angel wants to make sure Kevin's okay.

"There is no need to panic like that" said Rio who is now staring intently at Angel. Sena who doesn't know anything just becomes a spectator.

"Eh? but you're bi-."

"I lied." cut Rio. Angel's face is now not as sweet as it was, honestly Angel relieved to hear it's just that, the question in Angel's mind is now gone. Angel now knows that Rio came to the park and saw everything.

"Just get to the point, Sena has fulfilled your wishes" Rio said flatly. Sena is now looking happily at Angel, but Angel looks mediocre.

"Yes, El. You must be happy now, right?" asked Sena excitedly.

"You're mocking me?" angel said cynically.

"Eh?" Sena was confused by Angel's words. Angel does not care about Sena, now Angel's eyes are on Rio.

"I'm asking for a divorce!" said Angel flat and returned to step foot into Kevin's room.

"Eh?" Sena was dumbfounded to hear it, Sena felt astonished why Angel asked for a divorce when all this time she wanted to be her legal wife Rio just like her.

Rio just smiled thinly. I don't know why he wasn't so surprised to hear that.

"The Ri? Angel said what just now?"

"Don't get too in the mind" Rio said casually then turned his back, looking at Sena.

"Eh?" Sena was surprised by Rio's treatment. Rio ruffled his bangs with a sweet smile etched beautifully on Rio lips.

"Your task is done." said Rio softly and then passed away.

"What's really going on?"

....

Kevin's Room.

Angel asked all of Kevin's nannies out of the room. Now there's only Angel and Kevin. Angel approached Kevin who was now staring at him with a sweet smile.

"Mama wouldn't be able to live without you, would you be selfish? it's all for your safety, believe me mama had to do this. Deep down this heart is eager to see you grow, always near you so you can determine your own happiness."

Angel's tears were now flowing profusely, her heart breaking into pieces without anyone knowing.

"You sulking?" ask Angel to the little one who is now starting to whine.

Angel came straight to Kevin. Kevin's innocent gaze made Angel feel even more guilty, it must be very difficult to part with Kevin who is almost nine months one body with him.

"Dear, don't hate mama?"

Angel POVs

It's very painful. Why did God give me such a burden? I just want to live with the people I care about so much, is that too hard to get through?.

I never thought this would happen, I never dreamed this bad. Huff.it's all very tiring. Who wants me to go? did Sena do this? so why would he waste time taking care of my wedding book? is that just a ploy to keep me from suspecting him? does he know Alex helped me?. Is he gonna be okay?. Huh huh? whatisthis? I'm worried about her? I don't even know my own fate. Stupid me.

"Your nails why the gini length anyway, son?"

I love playing these little hands. Now that my son is getting older, I am so happy to see that very sincere smile. Only a baby has a smile this sincere.

"Now that Rio will definitely stay away from me, I'm ready for this, maybe this is the best path for me. I don't know what to do now. Already El! it's beyond your means."

POV end's.

...

Rio Sena Room.

Rio was lying on the bed with his eyes fixed on the ceiling of the room. It was still clearly visible in his eyes when Angel with the Man. This tightness in his chest reminded him of what he had done to Angel.

"Two times, will you come back to me?" rio asked himself. Rio still remembered Reyhan and could it be Reyhan, but was he like that now?, question after question now filled Rio's mind.

"My head is dizzy, who's that guy?"

The sound of the doorknob rang out in Rio's ear making him close his eyes, pretending to be asleep. It turned out that it was Sena who was just peeking and did not seem to intend to enter.

"He's sleeping? tumens. Whahuh? never mind, do I have to be happy with what's happening now?" lirih Sena with a smile on the edge of her lips.

The Rio POV

It must be Sena. I don't know what's on Sena's mind right now, for sure she's very happy to hear it but I'm sorry I won't divorce Angel because I love her so much more than you. I'm used to feeling hurt because of you and I always forgive you and that goes for Angel.

I can't just believe Angel couldn't have done something like this, at least for Kevin's sake.

"Eh?" Rio immediately sat down while remembering that he still had Reyhan's number, maybe Reyhan knew something.

"Do I have to ask him?"

Tok.tok.cok ..

"Ri, what Angel's mother. He's looking for you!" Shouted Sena in front of the door.

"Yes a minute."

Rio could hear Sena footsteps away from the door. Rio was wondering why Jihan wanted to meet him.

"Did he know all this?"

...

Middle Space.

Jihan is increasingly confused by Angel's attitude lately especially when hearing Sena's story.

"Mom, do you know anything? Angel wasn't like this before what else she wanted to go that far."

"Mother doesn't know either, Angel's not talking to me anymore, maybe she's still angry."

"Sorry it's because of me."

"No Sena, the wrong mother. You don't have to worry about it."

Rio went down the stairs and was clearly seen by Jihan and Sena who were talking about something.

"Mom?" call Rio. Jihan turned her head towards Rio by looking at the look of anxiety.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

"Sit down, there's something you should know."

Rio obeyed, said Jihan. Rio was getting curious and inexplicably raised to worry in his heart.

"You're fighting Angel again?" Ask Jihan. Rio just shook his head.

"Angel wants to move to France with his grandfather."

"What's? ngga! Angel will not leave Kevin. Is Angel gonna take Kevin?" rio asked with a trembling tone. He did not want to part with two people at once.

"Ri?" Sena immediately clasped Rio's left hand.

"Mom doesn't know, even Angel hasn't spoken to me. He seems to be a stranger now. I don't know what's on his mind right now." Jihan breathed her. Jihan felt so disappointed Angel that Angel no longer wanted to talk to her.

"I'll talk to Angel, persuade her not to go" Rio said with hope.

"No Ri, let's just mother. He's still mad at you."

"But he's also mad at you."

"At least I'm her birth mother."

"All right."

....

Side terrace.

Jihan looked at Angel with teary eyes. Jihan could clearly see the anger in Angel's eyes.

"I don't want to hear a word from you. You're asking me to think about Rio's feelings? hah, all this time I always thought about other people's feelings but did they think about my feelings? no, no one cares, that's enough! I don't want to repeat the same mistake."

Angel moved from her seat. His face looked flat and his gaze was blank.

"Tell Rio, I won't take Kevin with me. I don't want bad memories to follow me. I learned from you, you left your family for the one you love while I left my family to survive. If you still consider me your son, please don't interfere."

Angel immediately passed away. Jihan can not do anything else, this mistake was never honest with Angel and all this time he also attach importance to his own feelings.

"Is this karma for me? does this feel like being disappointed by someone nearby? Dad, is this how you feel? I've felt it, my heart is broken and I'm sorry"

.... Seriate....
