💞 Happy reading 💞
That afternoon at the house of Najendra mansion. Helen and Renata invite Kirana to enjoy tea together in the spacious courtyard garden where they usually spend their free time.
"Hows it? the view is pretty, isn't it?" exclaiming Helen invites Kirana to chat to get to know more about the daughter-in-law, as well as Renata who as much as possible makes Kirana comfortable to get along quickly and not feel awkward anymore.
Kiran nodded in response to Shaka's grandmother's words. "I-yeah oma, the scenery here is very cool and beautiful."
Renata stared gently attentively at her daughter-in-law, rubbing Kiran's back fondly. "This is what we expected, you don't feel shy or awkward anymore, you already think like your own child."
Kiran nodded her head with a glass in her eyes full of novelty.
"For so long I have never known how a mother loves me, thank you for thinking of me as a child."
Helen and Renata look at each other in shock at Kiran's heart.
"I'm sorry if you were so presumptuous to ask, but since when have you been in your parents' house?"
"Even since I was born, my mother died fighting to give birth to me and my father followed her for a heart attack as soon as she got word that she was gone."
Helen and Renata hear a brief explanation about Kiran's parents who died tragically.
"You're strong enough to survive at this point, son," said Renata encouraging his son's wife as well as Helen who embraced Kiran lovingly channeled warmth to the poor girl.
"Well, we remember the sad. Oh, right oma forgot to give you something."
"Ah yes right," Renata said to her mother-in-law.
Shortly afterwards, Helen meaningfully picked up a golden box, looked at Renata and her daughter-in-law nodded.
"You know Kirana, this is a step because your mother and oma have made this decision very well."
"What is an oma?" asked Kiran who was a little curious about the golden box that Helen showed.
"This is a necklace," replied Helen with a face full of enthusiasm. "You know Kirana, this necklace is very special because it is an ancestral necklace that has been inherited since the Najendra family dynasty was built, this necklace is more valuable than gold and any gem,"
"And now this necklace will be bequeathed to you as well."
"A-what? but I don't seem to deserve oma."
"Why do you talk like that?" ask Renata.
"Mother, you know I'm not from a rich family status, my life is also ordinary, I'm not that special person who deserves this hereditary precious necklace."
"Who did you say you didn't deserve it?" someone suddenly answered Kiran, making the three women turn simultaneously towards the source of the voice.
"Shaka are you here?" Helen exclaimed in surprise.
"T-lord ... " Kiran spontaneously lowered his head as soon as Shaka approached her.
Shaka looked at Kiran with a hard-to-read look, his hands folded in front of his chest.
"Oma, can you give me that necklace?"
"Ah yes."Helen also Renata nods along giving Shaka a gold box containing a fancy necklace.
"Don't tell me you don't deserve it, because you deserve it" said Shaka, the man bending his knees before Kiran who was sitting down, looking at Shaka who did it as Kiran raised his head.
"Master .. You don't have to do that."
"I want to do it for my wife what's wrong?"
Helen was also Renata who heard so mesem-metic on the spot.
Kiran moves awkwardly as Shaka takes the necklace and puts it on Kiran's neck, spontaneously taking her long hair to the side.
"Beautiful" Shaka said after putting the necklace on and looking more closely at Kiran with a new appearance with a diamond necklace.
"Look at your own husband praising you, so you don't have to feel unbecoming affection" exclaimed Helen rubbing Kiran's shoulder.
"Okay, you guys talk more, we'll go."
"T-but-" Kiran was about to endure the departure of her grandmother and mother-in-law.
"It's okay, baby, Shaka is here, you need a lot of time to be together, and immediately give a great-grandchild to oma," said Helen half-tempting.
Shortly after the departure of the oma and her mother Shaka straightened her body back up and sat down next to Kiran's empty chair.
"You hear what oma said?"
"Listen, sir." replied Kiran quickly.
"And you understand?" ask Shaka again.
"Understand." said Kiran while nodding.
"Try explaining if you understand?"
"Eh?" Kiran raised her face uprightly. I was a little shocked by that question.
"Mmc ... Oma asked us for more time together."
"Then?" shaka's question hung with both of his eyebrows raised, he seemed to be teasing his wife, seeing Kiran's face stiffened like a participant who was being given a sudden quiz, justeru in Shaka's eyes even looks cute.
"Then ... " Kiran was like a word to answer, because he was too nervous he forgot the words of the grandmother just now.
"Then what?"
"A-I don't know sir, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
"Hey-hey already." Shaka immediately stopped Kiran who kept his head down saying sorry.
"I just want to tease you, why are you so sweet?"
Kiran almost cried, her experience that continues to get violence and bullying since long ago makes it easy for her to feel afraid and anxious by just not being able to answer such a small question. a dark childhood makes the character of Kiran formed into a woman who is easy in the corner. And Shaka could read it all from his two eyes that were hinting in fear.
"I'm sorry if it scares you."
Kiran was a little surprised by Shaka apologizing, this was the first time she had heard the sentence from the cold man's mouth.
"No sir, I should be the one apologizing. I'm too weak for something like this to be afraid of."
"It's not your fault that you're like this, but blame those bastards who claim to be your family, who shaped your character like this."
Shaka embraces Kiran's shoulder giving her comfort. It felt as if the girl was shaking violently in her arms. As deep as that wound, is that the trauma?
Shaka was bluffing his teeth, feeling a soaring rage for the family of uncle and aunt Kiran who had made his wife like this.
"I promise, I will give them a lesson worth learning." Shaka inwardly excited.
"Are you better?"
Kiran nodded slowly, Shaka stroked her embrace, with her thumb she rubbed the watery end of Kiran's eyes.
"Do you want to watch a movie?"
"Huh?" Kiran who was still arranging the tightness, was surprised by Shaka's sudden invitation.
"Well done, tonight you have to be ready, we're going to watch a movie!" shaka insisted without hearing Kiran's answer first.
Indeed, this young master sometimes likes to be careless.
Haha good luck!
