When The Sky Fall

When The Sky Fall
Chapter 38's


Renald drove the vehicle somewhere. Dancing confused and scared of course. Renald's face was very angry and scary. This time he saw it like that. Dance had seen her angry and flat face. But not that one. Dance really saw the other side of Renald. Along the way, Dari was silent while holding his wrist which still hurt because it was pulled rough by Renald. I don't know what he's gonna do now.


Renald parked his car in front of a store. Renald came out without taking Tari. Dance only sighed then stared out the window. He checked his phone. Some misscalls from Randy and also Helena and messages from them too. They asked him where he was and if he was okay. Dance did not answer their message. Just keep her phone back in her jeans. Yes, he was wearing his light blue jeans and a pink shirt that he put in his pants. She doesn't like wearing dresses.


Renald got in the car back with his groceries. He took off his suit and unbuttoned his shirt. The top two buttons are open. Renald returned to his car. Soon they reached the beach. Renald parked his car.


"Let's get down" he said and get out of the car.


"What the hell do you want here?" gumam Dance. Dance saw her watch. It's two o'clock in the afternoon. But the clouds are cloudy. Dari saw Renald sitting on the hood of his car. Dance sighed then got out of the car.


"Come here." Renald patted the spot next to him. Dance hesitated for a moment then finally sat down next to Renald. Renald sits on the right while Tari is on the left side of the hood. Renald opened the parcel he had just bought. "Get your hand."


Dance gave her left hand.


"No, not that. The other. I pulled the other hand" said Renald.


"For what?" tanya Dance. His hands are still in pain. He did not want his hand to hurt. He has to work tomorrow.


"Remove it" Renald said again. Dance gave her right hand. Renald gives topical medication on the Dance wrist. "Is it still sick?" ask without looking at Dance. He was busy applying the cream.


"A little bit." answered Dance. After applying the topical medicine, Renald took out an instant compress and placed it on Dance's wrist.


"Do I need to see a doctor?" asked Renald gently, no, very gently. His eyes also looked worried. Touched dance? No. gabe. He was confused, afraid, worried and alert, at what Renald would do again. "Dance?"


"Hm? Oh no, no need. I'm sure it will soon be gone" said Tari quickly.


"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you" Renald said.


"What's up with this guy?" inner Dance.


"Ren, I don't know what's wrong with you. Did you hit your head until you got weird?" tanya Dance. Renald just looked at him meaningfully. Dance breathed her breath. "Stop being weird. I don't know your purpose for doing that, but it's best to stop. Do it when we have to act. If not, go back to your true self, to your usual treatment. No matter, be indifferent and assume I don't exist. I'm more used to it than I am to this attitude of feigning attention. I want to go home."


Renald exhaled. Dance walking towards the car door. Renald held his arm gently but enough to stop Dance's steps.


"Why do you think all this is pretend?" asked Renald while looking at Tari, waiting for an answer.


"It's not like that? You're an expert at doing that. You can even act long enough when we first meet. I thought you were taking an acting class." Dari sighed without shaking Renald's hand. "Listen Ren. I'm tired of repeating my words. We just do our deal okay? Although this agreement is not on paper, at least we know each other's duties." Dari took Renald's hand off and got into the car.


"What's wrong with him?" gumam Dance. "Can't he like me?" quickly Dance shook her head. He's crazy thinking like that. The renald? Liked it? There is an apocalypse! Huh!


Renald got in his car, put on his seatbelt and left. They walked home without saying anything.


......***......


The night of Tari was shocked by the number of bodyguards in the pavilion area where she lived. Marissa said Veronica was really rampaging, so for the good of Dance, the bodyguards were on guard.


"Gosh, Renald is too much" said Helena. Helena felt too worried, therefore she visited him at night. But Tari answered her message. "He should have kicked Veronica out, instead of putting a bodyguard in here."


"Aren't you guys friends? I meani... With Veronica?" tanya Dance. He was curious about that. They initially hid Veronica when Tari first saw Renald with Veronica at the club.


"Friends, indeed. But we didn't... Loves it too much."


"Why is that?"


Helena sips her tea. "He.. Too.. I don't know, overdone? Against everything. But Renald loves him, so what can we do. He's too stubborn. They've been dating since they were in High School. The same school. They have the same class. Popular men and popular girls, both come from rich families. Everyone is certainly supportive. But you know, Veronica's the only daughter in her family and she's very spoiled and likes to do as she pleases. Until his father went bankrupt and died of a heart attack. During that time Renald financed his life and his mother and two younger brothers. We don't matter of course. We thought they were lovers and were getting married. But until we find out how Veronica really is."


Helena drank the tea like water. Helena gestured for Marissa to fill it again.


"Ahh no, no, no tea. Just get some warm milk, Marissa." ask for a dance.


"Thank you."


"No problem."


"The fool here is Renald! He knows everything. Veronica's affair, her attitude, I mean.. Actual attitude. He's that crazy! He destroyed Renald's project just because Renald didn't return his calls and messages. He also went crazy if Renald got close to another woman. Though he cheated even with Renald's business friend. I don't know what's wrong with him. Maybe he's tired of the Renald.. Flat. But yes, Veronica is. The fool is Renald. How could she still love him, want him and take care of him after all that?! Veronica even refused marriage, you know what the reason is? He said he still wanted to be free and have fun. But when Renald wants to move on, he always gets in the way! "


"OK, relax. You're pregnant, remember? Don't be angry and don't be emotional." Dance tried to calm Helena down. He seemed excited to tell a story. His white face began to red, even in the lighting of the lights was clearly visible. Helena took a breath, trying to calm herself down.


"I'm sorry. I'm just sick of seeing them." Helena drank her milk. "And so, at first we thought you were like the girl Renald used to use to make Veronica come back. But we were wrong."


Dance frowned. "Whatchu mean? I did make those two lovebirds together again."


"No, this time it's different. Renald's not coming back to Veronica."


"She came to your party earlier, both."


"And he came home with you, both."


"It's just-we live in one house."


"Are you going to be naive like this?" ask Helena. Dance just silently looked at Helena. "alright, right. We can't guess Renald. He's really hard to guess. But from his gaze, his behavior, he likes you!"


"What?!" Dance laughs. "Don't joke Helena! You must be wrong."


"Maybe I was wrong. Probably not either. But his actions while at my party really confirmed that."


"Listen to me, Helena. He can't possibly like me. That's an impossible thing. He probably just feels responsible. That's what I believe. He's an adult. We are both adults. Of course we understand about being responsible."


"Therefore. You are one hundred and eighty degrees different from Veronica. It's only natural that he likes you. You're independent, not crazy for money, not crazy. Of course he likes you."


Dance laughs. Helena's thinking is completely absurd. Renald likes me? That's insane!


"He doesn't like me, Helena. I'm sure it is." Dance shook her breath.


"Want to bet?"


Dance breathed her. "No. Stop thinking about all this. You are very pregnant. Your baby can be stressed."


"Googlings. You said the baby could feel something. I was curious so I looked for."


"Don't, don't look for it. Just feel it straight away. Make a child with Renald. If your son is a boy, they can be good friends just like their father, if your son is a girl, we can just match them."


Dance gawked for a moment then laughed amusedly. Helena's imagination is incredible.


"It seems so exciting" said Ted, who had just arrived.


"How's Renald?" ask Helena.


"Somehow, they're in the room" Ted said and sat next to Helena.


"Together Veronica?"


Ted nodded. "Yes." Yeah."


Helena looked at Tari who was also looking at her as if saying I told you so. Smiling dance. Don't we? That's the impossible thing to happen.


...***...


The next morning, all the servants were busy moving Tari's belongings. Dance just stared at them in silence. He really wanted to stay in that pavilion.


"I'd better talk to Renald."


The dance runs towards the main house. He has to talk to Renald. He did not want to move out of the pavilion.


Dari didn't see Renald anywhere in the main house. Maybe in his room, his mind. But Dari reluctantly went into her room. He didn't want to see those two lovebirds making out. So he decided to wait for her.


"Mrs? What's the lady doing here?" alfred asked who saw Tari standing in front of Renald's room.


"Just calm down, I won't do anything to your nephew, Mr. Alfred. I just want to meet your master" said Flat Dance. I don't know why he doesn't like it. Maybe because from the beginning, Alfred gave the impression of being very disliked. He always said coldly and with a face that clearly hated him.


Soon Renald came out of his room and found Dari standing in front of his room.


"Why are you here? I thought you had gone to work" Renald said. He buttoned his top shirt.


"I'm sorry I interrupted your morning. I know you definitely don't want to see me in the morning. You both mean it." said Tari making Renald frown. "But I'm just here to say, I don't want to move. Let me stay in that pavilion."


Renald raised his eyebrows. "Why do you want to live there?"


"Because it's very quiet and there's no need to meet the three of you. I'm sure the three of you don't want to see me either. So a fun solution, right? At least until I'm completely out of here" said Tari.


"Who said I didn't want to see you?" ask Renald. He placed the tie that had not been knotted on his shoulder.


"But you're-I mean.."


"It is not easy to conclude something. I'm glad to see you."


"Whaat? What's up with him?"


"Pair my das." ask Renald. Dance frowned.


"I'll pair it up, sir" said Alfred. Renald raised one hand.


"No. I want my wife, who put it up." Renald said. Dance frowned.


"Just love. It's not that he exists. Why should I? I don't want to be pinched or pushed again and blamed because I'm defending myself" Tari said. Renald caught up with him and stopped his steps. Renald showed his tie to Dance.


"You haven't fitted my das" Renald said. Dance breathed her breath. He's really upset right now. Wanted to strangle him with that tie.


Dance facing Renald and then take a tie in Renald's hand and pair it. Fortunately Tari had once paired her papa and also her sister a tie, so she could pair it quickly. At least that's what Dance thinks. In fact, he was so nervous. Renald kept looking at him and Renald's body was also leaning towards him, as Renald's body was much taller than him. The fragrance of Renald's perfume touching his nose also bothered him. Very fragrant, making it lulled.


"Are you nervous?" asked Renald because from earlier Tari made a mistake.


"Nope-no. It's just that I haven't had a tie in a long time. Besides, the smell of your perfume bothers me. Are you wearing a bottle of prefum? It stings!"


Renald smiled slightly and brought his face closer to Dance.


"Have you?" whispered.


All over the body Dance creeps. Not because of fear or fear. But there was a strange taste that gave him goosebumps.


"Easy? I'm leaving."


"Wait." call Renald. Dance sniffed in annoyance then turned around.


"Do you like this house?" ask Renald. Dance frowned. What kind of question is that?


"This house.... Really troublesome. Too broad! It's hard, because it's too far. But what's the matter with me?"


"What if we just move house?" ask Renald again.


"Why ask me?"


"You're my wife and you live with me. Of course I asked you. Do you have time? We'll take a look at the house and you can choose the house you want."


Dance with success. He just kept quiet and blinked his eyes many times.


"Home, home she. Why should I bother too?"


"Why should you take me? Just take your lover there. Buy a house for you to marry. It was getting dizzy early in the morning!" said Dance as she passed. This time Renald did not stop him. He just stared at Dari until it was gone from his sight. Yes, Sunset Mentari, I like you!
