The Pearl of Ternista
Sweet Promises That End Tragically


One month Tiara's been living in a rented house. The content that has now entered the age of three months, began to appear in his stomach. However, Tiara could anticipate by wearing loose-fitting clothes.


So far there are no significant problems, other than regrets that are still often haunting. In fact, finances can still be overcome. Since two weeks ago Tiara worked at Soyami Cookies & Cake— bakery which is not far from the contract. Although working hours a day is full, but quite light, because it just waits and serves visitors.


"Finally .. can fall too," muttered Tiara as she laid her body on the bed.


Returning from work—sore earlier, he immediately washed clothes and cleaned the kitchen. Pretty exhausting. His back until it hurts.


Unfortunately, the initial intention of wanting to fall suddenly ran aground when he heard someone knocking on the door. Who the fuck?


With a frowning forehead, Tiara got up and exited the room, headed for the main door and opened it wide.


"You" said Tiara. In front of him now stood the figure of the man he had once admired. The man who already knew the inside, had even left a seed in his womb.


"I brought a chocolate martabak, your favorite."


The man walked in and put the martabak on the table. Then, remove the mask and black hoodie he was wearing. As a married man, it was not easy for him to meet other women. It must be neat so that everything goes as you wish. Including closing the appearance and not using a private car.


"Why did you come here?" tiara asked with a little reluctance.


Love, admiration, fascination, it used to be, but it is not. Tiara is already aware that her true love is from Shaka. Unfortunately, he was stupid and could not see all that. Even tempted by persuasion that is real only naf-su.


"You're that jutek anyway? It's not easy to get here." The man pulled Tiara's hand and guided her to sit close. "I miss you, I miss our son too" he continued, rubbing Tiara's stomach.


"I don't want to do this anymore." Tiara brushed aside the man's hand, also inched and put some distance between them.


Not without reason Tiara did so, but was already lazy with all kinds of sweet speech, the edges of which would end with intimate scenes.


Tiara has memorized it. Since long ago, there was never a meeting without making love. Now that Tiara was convinced, the man's intentions were still the same.


"You why? Badmood is bad. Was the shop crowded, right? Here I go, let's get tired."


Tiara refused.


The man flinched. No more talking or touching Tiara. He began to realize, there was something different with his female gaze.


"You don't love me?" Tiara's question made the man gasp. There was no wind, no rain, suddenly Tiara asked love. Wh why?


"I don't often say that I love you. In fact, my love is greater to you, than to my own wife" she replied so sweetly.


"Then, you want dong to make a confession?" Tiara asked again.


"Yes, confess that we have a relationship, and I'm your son."


"You don't be weird, I have a wife. What will people say if we are found out to have a relationship. You want to be branded as an actor, looked down upon by people?"


"You don't think getting pregnant out of wedlock is looked down upon?"


"Yes, I know. But, how else are we going? Even if I divorce my wife and marry you, people will look down on her, because you are Shaka's future wife. And everyone knows what our relationship is."


Tiara quiet. So many answers are enough to prove that all this time only naf-su exist. While the love that is repeatedly expressed, is no more just a bait to get pleasure.


"I'm sorry we met late. If we had been early, we wouldn't have been caught in this situation. I just need to love you and marry you, without being in a relationship with another woman."


"Just keep your bullshit, I know it's not pure from the heart." Tiara looked at her interlocutor with teary eyes. "I realized, from the past until now you never loved me. All you have is naf-su. That's why you never seriously think about me. As long as your desires are channeled, fuck the others. I see, right?" continued.


"You misunderstood, i___"


"I used to be stupid. Betraying Mas Shaka's love is only for the sake of a man like you. But now I can think. So, you don't expect to touch me again, I don't want to. If necessary, we will not have to meet again. Just take care of your wife!" cut Tiara.


The man exhaled a long breath, "It seems that today you have a lot of thoughts. All right, then I'll go. Next time we talk about it again."


Without waiting for Tiara's reply, she immediately got up and put on a mask and hoodie. Then stepped away and left Tiara alone.


'I love you, I can't live without you. I hope we're always together, forever. Even if later our relationship kissed my wife or Shaka, please do not sacrifice our relationship. I'm willing to lose everything, as long as it's not you.'


Tiara bit her lips hard. Given the sweet promise that used to be thrown easily, it is now out and gone.


Actually, it was easy for Tiara to dismantle everything. However, there are still many considerations. The man had a close relationship with Shaka, his image would be further ruined if everyone knew of the scandal.


After all, even if it was exposed, what could he get?


A wedding?


What's the point of marrying a man who never loved, and only naf-su. His days will be bleak from being forced to serve, whatever the circumstances. Nah! Tiara did not want to be shackled in such a bond.


Once enough he acted foolishly, do not repeat it a second time.


Seriate...
