The Seed of the Cassanova
BSC 132 (S2 part 1)

A week has passed since Rhea's departure. There was no sign of the woman going back to the apartment. Theo who did not have any feelings for Rhea, seemed indifferent. Although now the apartment is becoming increasingly quiet, but Theo does not mind at all. That's better according to him. No one else would bother him, at least that was what he had in mind right now.

Entering his room, Theo immediately threw his body onto the bed. His eyes looked up at the ceiling of his room. There was actually a slight feeling of guilt towards Rhea. After all, he must have injured Rhea for forcibly fucking her. But alas, his ego goes beyond common sense. He thought it was natural, Rhea's own fault was always just harassing him.

Rhea should have realized, their marriage was without love. At least give him some breathing space. It is not easy to forget the woman he loves. The taste had been so deeply ingrained that it eroded his senses. Rhea closed her eyes. He didn't care and kept on teasing her. Make Theo run out of patience to do the unexpected to the woman who has never been touched.

The door bell rang loudly. Lazily, Theo immediately went to the door and opened it. Theo snorted bitterly after seeing who had come.

"Theo, Rhea hasn't come back yet?" asked the mother when she saw the state of the apartment that was still like a few days ago. This time it looks dustier. Even Theo's clothes that had been lying on the back of the sofa since a few days ago were still there.

Theo glanced cynically and perched just like that.

"Heh, Theo, answer Mommy's question! Don't just leave!" snapped Theo's mom, Emery.

"If mommy already knows the answer, why do I still have to ask? If Mommy's goal here is that woman, it's better for Mommy to leave because she's not here. Maybe he'll never come back here!" answer Theo flat and cold. Lost is already the warm and tender Theo. All disappeared with his lost love.

Wanting to be angry, but I don't know who because he also had a hand in the rundown of his relationship with Shenina. If he could be more patient, if he would listen to Shenina's explanation a little, if he had not just left, if he had not cut off the relationship with Shenina just like that, had it, had it, had it, it was just a word if only that kept swirling around in his mind.

Then coupled with the attitude of his mother who constantly reviled Shenina, made her feelings so messy that she made a unilateral decision without thinking about the risk. As if not satisfied to see his destruction, his mother again forced the will by marrying him to a woman he did not love. They didn't even give themselves a little time to improve. To set a broken heart. Claiming and pressing, that's what his parents did. Makes Theo completely helpless.

"Theo, watch what you say!" jolt Emery to his son. His eyes look dirty. He was so upset that his son was acting like that to him. "Well, Mommy doesn't want to know, you have to pick Rhea up to come back here. There is no rejection. Point."

"Why? Why would Theo pick her up? Why?" Raung Theo with reddened eyes.

"Because she's your wife."

"Theo! Why are you being like this? Is it because of that net? You still love her? You still expecting it? Don't be stupid, Theo. She was already another man's wife. He'd prefer a man richer than you. Why else would you expect it, huh?"

Though some time ago, Emery had realized his mistake in Shenina, but maybe his consciousness was not from the deepest heart so now he again blamed Shenina for the change in attitude Theo.

Theo's hands clenched tightly. Hearing Shenina's name being called and insulted, her blood instantly boiled.

"Never insult, Shenina! Mommy doesn't know anything about him so better Mommy shut Mommy's mouth. And listen, Shenina is not a net," cried Theo with a crimson face. "Why would I still expect it? I love her, but Mommy made things so complicated that I lost her. I know, I was the one who was wrong for not listening to the explanation, but if Mommy didn't affect me, it wouldn't be like this. Mommy knows how broken my heart is right now? Completely ruined, Mom. I ... I love Shenina so much, Mom. But now, everything has been completely destroyed. There was no longer any hope of me having Shenina. I ... am completely destroyed," said Theo, who was weakened.

Emery who heard the heart-wrenching expression of her son could clearly feel how much pain Theo was feeling. But protracted sadness is useless. It's not gonna be possible to go back to how it was. Emery hopes Theo can start to set his heart and accept Rhea. He was sure, as long as Theo wanted to open his heart, Rhea would be able to treat Theo's liver injury.

"Theo, forgive Mommy who didn't understand your feelings all this time. But ... This isn't true, Son. Why you should torture yourself like this. Everything has already happened. Everything that has happened will never go back to what it used to be. Shenina Ikhlaskan. If you really love her, let her go. Pray that he will be happy with his new partner. Try to open your heart to Rhea, Son. She's a good girl. Don't let you regret wasting him" Emery said.

As a mother, she could feel the destruction of her son. If time could be turned, she would accept Shenina and the baby in her womb with open arms. He will not reject it completely. He will not scorn her with insults. Emery doesn't know Shenina very well. But judging from how his son loved Shenina so much, he could confirm that Shenina was a very good female figure. Stupid self who did not realize it all from the beginning. Stupid he who became one of the people who took part made his son so devastated as it is today.

Theo fell down. He cupped his face behind his palms. Both of his shoulders were shaking. Theo's crying broke. Emery could not help his grief. He also cried. Including women who are currently hiding behind doors that have not been closed perfectly. The woman thought, after a week of her departure, Theo would worry about her a little or look for her whereabouts. But unexpectedly, Theo was still struggling with his past.

The woman squeezed the paper in her palm. Then with a broken heart, the woman left the apartment building where she had lived for several months.
