Our Love Is Not Over
The Part 38

Upon arrival at home, Raisa is immediately greeted with a hug by the twins. Regarding Mia's legs, it was much better and Mia was able to walk again without a cane because the wound was dry.

"Mi, we met Papi's lover, she was very beautiful Mi," said Mia who was honest.

Kia directly hit Mia's arm with her hand.

"Mommy is more beautiful" said Kia.

Raisa who heard it just smiled. He realized that Tamara was more everything from him not just from the face alone.

"Yes, papi's lover is beautiful."

"But Mi, we don't want to have a stepmom. Our mom is just mom. Can't ya, if mami's with Papi again?"

Mia's words immediately made Raisa sad. Children this small must be faced with adult problems.

"Listen to Mami, each person has their own way of life. Maybe mami wasn't meant to be in line with your papi. But mami and papi will still give you complete affection. After all, if you have a stepmom, it means that there will be more people who love you. Isn't that nice?"

The twins nodded again and hugged Raisa back. Raisa then goes to her room and cleans her body.

In the bathroom with a shower, Raisa spills her grief with her tears.

What did he tell Tamara was right?

What choice of words he said to the twins was also correct and did not hurt their hearts?

Will his heart not hurt anymore?

Raisa realizes that she still loves Edgar very much. But, he did not want to be selfish by ruining the marriage of others even though Edgar himself had said he wanted to cancel the marriage. But even if he and Edgar come back, things won't be the same.

Mama Ola must still hate him so much. Her words used to hurt Mama Ola who sincerely loved her. To be honest, Raisa really misses Mama Ola. Longing for the warmth of the hug, longing for indulgence and spending a lot of time together with Mama Ola. But everything Memnag will never be the same again. Time has passed, surely Mama Ola's affection for him has disappeared.

Raisa keeps questioning about her life which has always been nothing like what she expected. Why is it as if his life cannot be quiet? Why should there always be problems that happen to him? Even though after 8 years not with Edgar, Raisa already felt fine, feeling that everything had evaporated in the past, but why did once she met, her heart immediately wavered again?

"Is my life going to continue like a rollercoaster?"

At the Gautama residence, all the families were gathered at the dinner table for dinner. Even Elsa and Fero, her husband Elsa and Jesper were there too.

The atmosphere of dinner felt so calm that Edgar let out his voice to make the atmosphere there so gripping.

"I want to cancel my marriage to Tamara."

Everyone seemed so surprised by Edgar's words, except for Oma Deli who had expected it.

"I know, this decision of mine leaves all of you shocked. But, I've realized that I only love Tamara, not love her."

"Is this all because of Raisa? Because Raisa has a child with you? Why would he let your life go like this, Gar? Why can't he just let you be happy with another woman? Anyway mama doesn't agree that until you cancel the wedding with Tamara. What is Tamara's lack? He loves you so much, he is willing to accompany you from you who are very bad at that time, then why in the end you even hurt Tamara?"

Edgar was shocked when Mama Ola found out about her son. He never told that to his mother. He immediately glanced at Elsa who might have said that. But Elsa shook her head, as if answering instead of her. He glanced at Oma Deli who shrugged her shoulders as if saying he knew nothing.

"Ma, my decision is not because of Raisa. But because of myself. I don't want to hurt Tamara more deeply. It's better this marriage doesn't happen, than it will eat the liver. As for the child, I did have a child with Raisa whom I just found out about. I want to give my full love to them. So, please support me Ma. Support my decision, and bless me again to be with Raisa."

"No! My mom does not agree! Do you know that this decision you made will hurt a lot of hearts and have a lot to sacrifice?"

"I know Ma, I know that very well. That's why I need the support of my mom and all our family. I can't face it alone."

Mama Ola will not respond to Edgar's words again. He chose to leave the dining table and go to his room.

Papa Daniel followed Mama Ola who may still be very surprised by Edgar's decision, but he will still support whatever his son chooses. Because the one who lived all of that was his own son.

"Papa will take care of mom, you just do whatever you want. Regarding the problems that will be caused by your decision, papa will always help. Because papa is sure, his father Tamara can not be silent only his favorite daughter hurt. You must be ready to face the problems you will face in the future."

"Thank you Pa."

After the departure of Mama Ola and Papa Daniel, Edgar became weak himself. Especially seeing Jesper who was crying because he was afraid of the anger of Mama Ola.

"Jesper, I'm sorry. Oma wasn't angry with you. Oma is angry with Om."

"Hu hu - hu."

Only sobs could be heard from Jesper's mouth. Elsa took Jesper away from there. Oma Deli also went along with Elsa and Jesper. Now there's only Edgar and Fero left.

Fero approached Edgar and patted his brother-in-law on the shoulder.

"Whatever is going to happen in the future, Mas Edgar must be ready. It is not easy to make such a decision. But in my opinion, the decision of Mas Edgar is the best if the heart of Mas Edgar is more inclined to Mba Raisa. Moreover, the children of Mas Edgar also still need a father figure. If you need any help, say it. I'll be ready to help."

"Thank you, Fer. I thought you would judge me for the decision I made."

Fero. "Mas Edgar must have considered everything. Then I go after Elsa first Mas."

Now only Edgar was at the dinner table. He ruffled his hair. She was sad because Mama Ola did not support her decision. Though Mama Ola used to love Raisa so much, even more loving Raisa than her. But why not now?"
