THE DESTRUCTION OF LOYALTY
THE DARK PAST

As if he was feeling an inner bond so deep, suddenly Raffa who was in the pocket of Valle suddenly became fussy.

" lady.. Mom. ma.. " Raffa kept moving his body towards the door.

" Dear you want to be with Mama, let's go samperin Mama." Valle carried Raffa out of the dining room towards the living room.

In the living room, as Lervia was about to walk out the door, she heard Raffa's voice calling for her. Although he knew that the call was not for him, his heart felt so shady. He turned his back to look at Raffa in Valle's arms as he approached Jia.

" Mom.a. " Until in front of Jia Raffa stretched out both his hands.

" Mommy's baby son." Jia holds Raffa while smirking her puffer cheek. It did not escape Lervia's vision.

" My son... " No tears just fell on Lervia's cheek. Had he not been afflicted with a deadly disease, he would not have been separated from his son by giving Raffa to Argham. His mind went back to a year ago.

The flashback

Inside a room in a hospital in the city of xx, after giving birth to the beloved son suddenly Lervia's body became weak helpless. He thought that maybe it was time he left this world because of the disease that continues to eat away at his body. In front of her eyes stood a handsome man who was none other than her ex-husband.

He looked closely at Argham, as well as at Argham. Although it felt like that time so hated Lervia but Argham still fulfilled his invitation.

" gham.. " Switch Lervia weakly.

" Yes." Sahut Argham's.

" I leave our son to you, take care of him with affection. Please don't look at me! You wouldn't want to take care of her if you saw me because I'm a dirty woman. But look if he's your flesh and blood, I'm sorry I brought him into the valley of darkness. But he was born in the holy state of Gham. I feel I can not survive anymore, my illness is getting worse and I am sure my age will not be much longer. Will you promise me that you will take good care of our son?" Lervia looked at Argham with a faint look.

Argham was silent without responding to Lervia's words. He himself was confused as to how. Can he take care of a baby alone? Can he love his son who was born to a paid woman like Lervia? Questions and fears flashed through Argham's mind.

Lervia clasping Argham's hand made Argham aware of his daydream.

" Please promise me you'll raise him Argham! I know if my request is too much for you, I don't care if you don't want to love him but promise to raise him. Don't let our child fall into the hands of Lora or my parents. I'm afraid they'll sell my son to someone else. They're the Argham bad guys. I'm enough to be their victim, not my son. I beg Argham hiks... " She Lervia.

Seeing that Argham felt pity.

" I promise I'll raise her." Argham.

Lervia smiled happily at Argham's words.

" My heart is relieved Gham, now I can go in peace." Lervia.

Suddenly Lervia's eyes felt so sleepy that she immediately closed her eyes. Argham was very panicked at the time, eager to ask for help from a doctor or nurse, he said, but in the midst of his panic he was called by a nurse who asked him to go to the baby's room because the baby Lervia was born at that time had poisoning in the womb to cause seizures. Argham thoughtlessly ran straight into the nursery without thinking about Lervia's condition.

This is where Lora used the opportunity to swap Lervia for one of the patients who died. She worked with two sisters who no longer work at the hospital. With money Lora can easily carry out her plan.

Argham returned after Lervia's body was bathed and in a caravan. He was not suspicious at all because of Lervia's words that were not strong enough to withstand his illness. He also buried Lervia's body until it was finished along with Lora and her parents.

A few hours later...

Inside a house in a remote area, Lervia slowly opened her eyes. He spread his eyes across the room. He scrunched his forehead as he felt unfamiliar with the room.

" Eh... Where's me?" Lervia tried to get up and rested her back on the headboard.

Chequek...

The door opened, Lervia turned towards the door. And how surprised he was when he saw Lora coming in.

" lora.. You." Lervia.

" Where am I?" Ask Lervia.

" You're at Valen's mom's house."

" Who is he?" Lervia asked again.

" Someone who's gonna hire you." Lora Sahut.

" I can't work Lora, I'm sick. Maybe even my age won't be long." Lervia.

" Say who?"

Lervia frowned looking at her sister. A sister whom he loved but hurt him several times.

" You don't hurt my beautiful sister." Lora plays Lervia long hair.

" What do you mean? You know for yourself that the doctor told me I had a terminal illness." Lervia.

" Because the doctor's my man." Lervia's eyes were perfectly patterned when she heard Lora's words.

" so.. "

" All this time your illness was just fabricating my dear brother, I deliberately did it so that Brother Argham would take care of your son. That way you'll be more profitable for me." Lora said meaningfully.

" What do you mean Lora?" Jerky Lervia.

" Ustttt patiently donk my dear brother, I'll tell you everything." Lora.

Lora tells the purpose of her plan to do all this. He engineered Lervia's disease by injecting a drug that caused Lervia to become ill after the drug entered his body, he engineered Lervia's death so that everyone thought Lervia was gone. That way he can give Lervia to Valen's mom. He deliberately hired Lervia to Valen's mother because Valen's mother paid higher than the mother who hired Lervia before. That's why he sabotaged Lervia's death.

Not only that, Lora even showed Lervia a fake funeral video to Lervia. Lervia was really surprised at that moment, she did not expect the sister she loved could do all that to her.

" Hix... Why would you do all this to me, Lora? What was my fault with you all this time?" Asked Lervia while crying out let out her sadness.

" Because you stole my parents' love." Lora Sahut.

" What do you mean? Mom and Dad love both of us Lora." Lervia.

" no... From childhood they loved you and kept ignoring me, but I was not their real child. They distinguish us from Lervia. Whatever your wish is always fulfilled, while my wish?"

" They've always ignored, which is why I've started to make trouble in your life, I've started to make you always blamed in every problem that comes to our family until I make them hate you. Hating their own children, they're really stupid." Lora.

Lervia cried awkwardly because she felt she had been fooled by Lora. Yep.. Lora was not Lervia's younger sister but the child of an orphanage that Lervia's parents took as a playmate because they could not have any more children. They raise the two together affectionately, but after starting their teens they feel that Lervia is starting to act, until their affection turns to Lora completely.

" You're a fool, Lervia, but not just you but your parents are also ha ha ha ha." Lora laughed loudly filled the room.

" You're really mean Lora, just look! You'll get his karma someday." Lervia Shouts.

" Karma didn't even dare to approach me Lervia, I'm happy now. I'm happy to have ruined your life and your family ha ha ha... " Lora came back laughing like a doormat.

Lervia tightly clenched her hands until....

TBC.....
