The Male Creature
Chapter 17 Reno Caught

The next day.

"Sister, said Mother her legs sprained huh? Why is my brother sleeping here?" ask Kia early in the morning.

"Kia, you just surprised me. It's just a sprain, I don't want to disturb you last night so sleep here" Asha replied.

"Will Brother work with a sprained leg so?"

"No, today's holiday there's no photo shoot. My contracted boss is in mourning, so be shut down until further notice,"

"Oh, yes, I took a shower first, sister,"

"Kia, wait I want to talk,"

"What's up, brother?"

"It's better to have a crazy idea to break a man's heart don't you keep going, we better live our lives happily and for what it is,"

"Why, brother?"

Kia wondered why suddenly her brother did not want to continue with the idea.

"I don't want to see you sad, nor do I want to see people hurt. I'm afraid that idea would ruin someone's life and even take their life away,"

Asha bowed sadly, she still remembered the events of yesterday. He felt guilty because indirectly the incident happened because of him.

"Actually I mean that men are not arbitrary towards women, they will stop hurting if they know the pain itself" said Kia.

"Yes I know, but I'm just afraid what happens to me will befall you,"

Asha began to sob, making Kia undo her intention to take a bath. She sat down next to her sister and hugged her to calm her down.

"Sister tell me what has happened to me, although maybe Kia can not help but at least the burden on your heart can be reduced,"

Asha stopped her crying, she stared fixedly at her beloved sister. Maybe he should tell her everything that happened to him so that the burden on his heart was slightly reduced.

Asha starts to tell everything, from Jason who offers to be her lover, then the events at the bar, about Samantha's mother, the meeting with Daniel and Jason's attitude that changes for the better. Asha also recounts the kidnapping incident that happened to her until the two men who liked her lost their lives.

Kia listened well when her brother told her, it did not feel like he was also crying because he was moved. He was very sad that both men had to die. He hugged his brother again to give strength.

"Prophey brother, this is all fate. Never blame yourself, because it's purely their fault. Precisely Brother is a victim, incidentally Brother is present at the wrong time," comforted Kia.

"Thank you Kia, I'm glad I told you. Please don't say anything to Mommy, I don't want to make her sad" she asked.

"Yes, I promise I won't tell you anything. I take a shower, okay, Brother just take a break,"

Kia immediately went to the bathroom, she became minded with her brother's words earlier. He thought maybe he should stay away from Reno. Although Aunt Geya was very guilty of her family, Reno's wife had nothing to do with it, so it was inappropriate for her to make the woman hurt.

"Good morning dear, every day is always beautiful" Reno said as she watched Kia leave the house.

Kia just smiled without answering a word. After saying goodbye to Ms. Aida they left for the office. Kia was more silent during the trip, although Reno invited him to talk he only answered as necessary.

"Reno, later at lunch I'd like to have a serious talk with you,"

Reno smiles at Kia's words, thinking that Kia will accept her love.

"Well, where do you want lunch?"

"As far as you go, I'll go along with your choice,"

Kia leaves Reno whose heart is still blossoming.

That afternoon Reno would take Kia to a restaurant near their office that day had just launched, but Kia refused.

"Suddenly I was lazy to go out, we had lunch in the cafeteria, just" said Kia flat.

"Don't you just say it's up to me, I've already booked a place there,"

"If you don't want to, you go alone. I'll just eat in the cafeteria,"

Kia left Reno still stunned. Although a little annoyed with the behavior of Kia Reno finally followed ya too. After ordering a meal they sat in the corner, so as to stare at the scenery outside the building. Kia just kept quiet made Reno a little confused, usually he was always carefree and smiling.

"Do I have anything wrong with you, honey? Did I accidentally hurt you?" ask Reno at the end.

Kia sighed deeply, in her face Reno seriously made the man tense up. He was already afraid that Kia had known the secret she had been hiding all this time.

"Better our relationship gets here, before it goes too far. I still want to be alone and not want to be tied up in any relationship. I'm sorry I didn't mean to play you, but I just realized I wasn't ready to be in a relationship with a guy, yet,"

So fluently the words came out of Kia's lips as if without burden. Reno's face turned deathly pale, not expecting the serious talk the girl wanted to say was about the breakup. He felt that Kia's reasoning was absurd and far-fetched. Yesterday they were still having fun and did not look at all the look on Kia's face if they wanted to end their relationship that had not even started.

"I'm not sure of your reasons, has there been another man who has attracted you more? Just tell me the truth who that guy is, Kia?" asked Reno while holding Kia's hand.

"I don't have another man, all this time you're the man closest to me. But I'm sorry, I'm really not ready, we better be friends so as not to hurt each other" Kia replied.

Kia let go of the man's grasp and then got up from her seat. After smiling, he left Reno alone who still could not accept Kia's decision.

'When I really sincerely love you, but why did you break my heart just like that.' Inner Reno.

While he was still pensive his phone rang, notification wa message from his wife. He opened it slowly. His eyes were round when he saw what his wife sent through the message. Dozens of photos of her togetherness with Kia, while in the office, in the car even when they go to the cafe. I don't know where his wife got these photos, which she obviously had to explain to him immediately so as not to misunderstand.
