The End of Clarisa's Suffering
The Part 40
"Ekhm...if you may know, actually what is your relationship with Alex? Weren't you the girl that was with Irlan in the Irlan cafe room?!" Tanya Nia broke the silence.
"If you're being honest, actually Alex and I are just partners, usually Alex will ask for my help if he has problems with investors. And I'm the one who's gonna help Alex negotiate with those investors. Actually, when Alex asked me to frame Irlan, I wanted to turn him down, but at that time I didn't have the courage to reject Alex, I was afraid that Alex would stay away from me or even find another partner. Because in addition to being his partner, I'm his bed partner." Risa somewhat lowered her voice when saying her last sentence, she was bowed in shame when saying that.
And Risa's recognition successfully made Nia's eyes widen. He did not believe, Alex who he knew well even slengean. It was a female player as well.
"I don't want Alex to do that, because I'm already in love with him. And if I'm to be honest, even if Alex isn't the first man, but he's the second guy I slept with. And no third or fourth man and so on slept with me anymore."
Nia's eyes became more and more rounded to hear Risa's words.
"Don't tell me the kid you were carrying was Alex's big brother?!" Ask Nia curious.
Tok to tok. The door of Nia's room was knocked.
Sontak Nia and Risa fell silent and let the person who knocked on the door to enter.
It turned out that Vera came carrying a tray containing drinks and snacks for Risa.
"Please drink Clara's mom." Vera said after putting the drinks and snacks on the table.
"Thank you." Reply Risa.
"I'm sorry Miss." Pamit Vera, then out of Nia's room.
Risa also took the drink that had just been brought by Nia's secretary and sipped it.
"You haven't answered my question, so is it true that the child in your womb has Alex's son?!" Nia asked again, after Risa put her glass back on the table.
Risa just nodded her head giving an answer. His heart ached again when he had to talk about his dead son.
"Gosh.." Nia said in shock as she covered her mouth with both hands.
"So before that incident, didn't Alex know about your pregnancy?!"
Risa shakes.
"Alex didn't know, actually the night before the tragedy, I wanted to tell Alex about my pregnancy, but because that night Alex had an ambition to get you dirty, dirty,so I put off telling Alex the news of my pregnancy, and focus on saving you first. I thought, after I saved you, I'd tell Alex about my pregnancy and my true feelings. But it turns out I was wrong, I had to lose my son. And even more painful, Alex does not believe that the child I bear is his child. He thinks that the kid I'm carrying is the son of one of the investors I've been negotiating with." Finally the tears that had been from earlier Risa could not be spilled as well.
Seeing Risa who was crying sobbing, Nia also stood up from her seat and moved next to Risa. He brought Risa his embrace. He knew how painful it was to lose a child, because Nia had also experienced the same thing.
"Just what's different, you're only two weeks old and I'm six months old. And you're pregnant because you want the child, while I'm pregnant by mistake." Said Nia again.
"You're right, I wanted the child to be present in my womb, but I didn't expect the child to have to leave because of his own father's obsession." Risa said and her crying became more and more.
"It's been..Ra.sudah.ikhlaskan, maybe this is the best for you and your child. Even if the child should be born into the world, do you not feel sorry for your child for not getting a confession from his biological father?! Wouldn't it be more painful for a mother to see her child hurt??!" Nia's words seemed to have succeeded in making Risa toughen back. It's true what Nia said, maybe this is the best way.
Risa also distanced herself from Nia's embrace.
"It." Nia thrust the city of tissue before Risa.
"Thank you." Risa said as she picked up the tissue box and picked up some of the tissue then wiped away the tears that had soaked her cheeks.
After wiping her tears, Lisa took back the drink that was on the table. He slowly downed the drink to help her neutralize her mood. After her mood felt better, Lisa put the glass back on the table.
"Nia, can I ask you for help.?!" Ask Risa.
"Solicit what please?! If I can help, I'll help."
"I'm sorry that my request is a little incriminating to you, but this is all I can do for Alex one last time."
"For Alex's brother? What's?"
"Please forgive Alex, do not extend the problems that occur at the top to the authorities. Actually Alex is a good guy, he's doing it because of his obsession with having you."
"Why is Alex obsessed with me?!" Asked Nia who did not understand Risa's words yet.
Risa also tells how hard and cruel Mr. Abram is to Alex if Alex makes a mistake. Feeling that his business was never appreciated by the father, making Alex out of sense and choosing shortcuts to advance the company. Had Abram appreciated Alex's efforts and continued to encourage Alex even if Alex failed to negotiate with clients, maybe Alex would not have sought a shortcut like this today.
"God.." Nia was shocked when she heard the truth about Alex.
Alex who is always cheerful in front of Nia, even he is always there when Nia is down, turns out his life is not as happy as what Alex has displayed in front of Nia.
"I didn't think Alex's brother was under that kind of pressure from his own father." Said Nia again.
"That's why I'm asking for your help Nia, please forgive Alex. And work with the company." Please Risa.
