Zea couldn't sleep last night. She kept thinking about what her chest was saying that tomorrow they would meet the man who was responsible for her pregnancy. He wondered if his chest knew that the father of the fetus he was carrying was Zio? they know where they are, he thought.
It really made him unable to fall asleep. He had no intention of continuing his marriage to Nathan. But not with Zio. He decided to take care of it himself even though he knew it would be difficult. But, marrying Zio is also not the solution, he does not want to make the brotherhood of Nathan and Zio destroyed.
It was only the next day that Zea knew that her parents' goal was not Zio . Except Nathan. More and more because of the feelings of Zea when she knew her parents would demand accountability from her fiance. Ah, even their status was still as fiancees. So, it is only natural that the Eagle and the Twilight think that Nathan impregnated him.
Zea had tried to forbid both of her parents to come to Bara's house. However, his parents did not want to listen to him unless he gave a reason that made them cancel there.
"It's not the brother who should be responsible" the alasana that Zea said.
"Then who? Who should we hold accountable?" insist Dusk.
Zea was silent, she couldn't have said Zio.
"Nothing, brother. Let's just go back, dad. Let this be Zea's business. Zea's gonna raise him,"
"Honey, raising a child alone is not going to be easy! you still have to finish your lecture, not to mention the talk of people who will not be endless," said Dusk.
"Daddy knows you very well, there's no way you're close and doing it with another man while you love Natha. Don't protect her by covering up for her mistakes" said the Eagle.
"Yes, mommy agrees with daddy. It is better now that we talk carefully with om Bara and others to immediately advance your wedding date, after all it has been planned, just advance it," added Dusk.
"But.." Zea had not finished talking, the car had stopped in the courtyard of Bara's residence.
"Dad Please....." Zea begged to undo their intentions but it seemed like the Eagle's determination was already round. Even so, she followed her husband down from the car.
"Come baby! Believe this. Daddy will invite them to a discussion not to judge you two," said Dusk yah g remain affectionate as usual. No matter what, she is still a mother.
.....
The Bara family had just finished breakfast and were preparing for their next activity when the Eagle came to visit. Except for Zio, the guy came home late last night until this morning he missed breakfast. Besides being tired, he did not want his mother to know about the wound on his head. He went home secretly and was not found out he was grateful.
Eagles, Dusk and Zea were told to wait for a while by the servants to call their master who was now in the room, perhaps preparing to go to the office.
Shortly after, Bara and Syafira went down to the living room where their prospective besan had been waiting with an already uncertain feeling. Especially Zea who was sitting between her parents. He was worried. Prepare if Nathan will be angry, even rebuke him after knowing if he is pregnant. She is also mentally preparing to hear Nathan's decision to cancel their marriage after finding out she is pregnant.
Bara who was bekum knew the purpose of the Eagle and the family came so early to his residence singling out a smile to greet the prospective iron.
"We did not expect the arrival of a great guest this early. Deserve earlier my pet bird continued to chirp, apparently because there will be special guests," joroh Bara when greeting the guest to melt the atmosphere. He knew there must be something important until the candidate of the iron came so early without prior notice.
Syafira and Dusk embrace each other, alternating with Zea.
" How are you, dear? You look less healthy? Your face is pale" asked Syafira as she hugged Zea. The girl smiled and said she was okay.
After the friendly event was over, now they started to have serious talks.
"I'm sorry before, Bara. Our arrival here so early without prior notice because there are very important things that we have to talk about," actually the Eagle was impatient to get to the point and vent anger, he said, but he still tried to restrain himself by trying to speak well.
" I'm sorry El, what's important? Didn't we talk about it all and agree on it that night? Um, I think it's about our kids' marriage, right?" guess Bara directly.
Zea crumpled her fingers continuously. Dusk tried to calm her down by touching her daughter's hand, hinting that everything would be fine. But, it was not about her that Zea was afraid of now, but about the dignity of her chest that would definitely be ashamed of being wrongfully accused. But, to open his face and be honest in front of everyone he was not that brave.
"Indeed about our daughter's son, mas. And because this issue concerns Nathan as well, Nathan should also participate in our discussion this time," said Elang.
Nathan greeted the Eagle and Dusk alternately, he also stroked Zea's head gently and smiled. Making the girl's heart even more upset, it felt like she wanted to disappear from the face of this earth.
"It just so happened that Nathan was here, so I just told him what was a problem for me and my wife to come here all of a sudden,"
Bara and the others waited for the Eagle to continue speaking.
"What's up, om?" nathan asked a little confused.
" I think Nathan is old enough to admit his mistakes and take responsibility for what he did with my daughter. They are both adults, of course, know the risks they will face because they cannot refrain from being lazy until the wedding day arrives. Sorry if I had to say this, we'd better get Nathan and Zea married. Because Zea was pregnant with Nathan's child" said Eagle, putting aside all the feelings in his chest, angry, disappointed, sad and also embarrassed.
Of course Bara and his family were shocked to hear the Eagle's words just now. Bara and Syafira looked at each other with their surprised look. While Nathan, he looked directly at Zea in disbelief. The girl did not dare to look at him.
"I'm sorry for not being able to take good care of my daughter, ma'am," Elang said. However, he has great respect for Bara who is older than him.
"We were very surprised to hear that, El. But we also won't blame Zea unilaterally because my son contributed to the mistake. It should be me who apologizes for neglecting to watch over my son until he acts outside the limits like this" Bara said. Then, he looked at his eldest son who was trying to guess what happened to his fiancee because he felt he did not really do it.
Disappointed, Nathan must have felt at this time. More to the pain of the pain in his chest, tightness because Zea chose to hold him accountable when the woman had betrayed him with another man if it is true that Zea is currently pregnant.
"How, Nathan? Did you admit your mistake?" Bara asked his eldest son.
For a while Nathan was still shaking while continuing to look at Zea who continued to look down while sobbing.
"See brother, Ze!" said Nathan.
Zea reflexively raised her head, she looked at Nathan with tears, "Excuse Zea, bang," the sentence she wanted to say but was so choked that it could only come out as a gesture.
"Is that really your brother's son?" nathan asked gently, still trying to calm down.
Zea was squeezing her own hands. He looked down again, too sick to look into the eyes of his fiancee. However, he was honest if it wasn't his son.
As he was about to shake his head, Nathan first voiced out, "Yes, dad. Nathan admitted, Nathan was wrong. Nathan is negligent and will take responsibility" Nathan said, staring at his chest.
Zea raised her head staring in disbelief at Nathan. In his mind he asked, why... Why Nathan wants to take responsibility, when he could have denied and angry. But, this was really beyond her expectations.
"Don't this want you, Ze?" nathan looked like he said so.
not to mention that Zea's shock subsided, the voice of the unwanted man in her presence there managed to grab everyone's attention.
"I'm the one who should be in charge, om. Not bang Nathan." exclaimed Zio who was going down the stairs. Makes everyone look at it.
"Because I impregnated Zea, not my brother," Zio continued after arriving in front of everyone.
Everyone was so shocked, they even stood up except for Zea.
Bugh!
One bogeman slid across Zio's face, not that of Nathan or the Eagle. But from his own chest, Bara.
