Xena
93. Candour

Early in the morning Ray was at Xena's house, though Xena's parents didn't mind. Instead they are happy because he wants to know more about their future daughter-in-law.

Xena told her parents that Grandpa Reksa would come with Ray tomorrow night to discuss the engagement.

Both of them were obviously very surprised, but they were also happy and proud. Because their only daughter puppets are considered and treated well and in view of important in the Octavio family.

For them the happiness of his daughter is a must. Any parent will always wish happiness for his or her son and daughter. So did Indra and Utami.

"How are you and your grandfather, son?" ask Ray.

"Grandpa Om I'm also healthy, how are om and Auntie?" ask Ray

"As you can see, we are all healthy. Can you ask Ray something?" ask Indra seriously

"Of course, just ask" said Ray

"Are you still going to work as an actor after marriage?" ask Indra

"No om, the plan is after Ray's contract expires in 3 months. Ray will not renew the contract and will focus on taking care of the company later" Ray said

"Are you sure?" indra asked in surprise when she heard it

"Om sure. Ray wants to learn to take over the company. Besides grandfather it is time to retire, who else will replace grandfather to manage the company" said Ray.

"It's good that you think about your future. But whatever decision you make, I just hope you prioritize Xena. Don't hurt our only daughter, because we'll never be able to forgive you. Even though you are the richest person in this country or even the world" said Indra

"Of course, don't worry. Because for me Xena is a priority before myself" Ray said

"Om believe in you, don't disappoint me" said Indra.

"Surely Om" said Ray convinced.

Their conversation stops when Utami calls the two to eat the breakfast cooked by Xena.

....

In the cinema that day was very full, it was because of the latest film Ray which has started airing today. A lot of people came because they knew Ray was coming to the premiere.

Instantly the screams of the fans echoed, not just seeing their idols coming. But witnessing a rare moment, couples are being viral everywhere as best couple.

For the first time Ray took Xena to participate in a promotional event and film premiere. Everything was like the visual charm of both.

Xena who was quite nervous just smiled in response to the fans of her lover.

After 2 hours of screenings, it became one of the best films played by Ray.

"Oh my God, I saw the couple live. They're very compatible"

"Lord, why are you being so unfair to me, even my charms are not half a degree of them both"

"I just saw Ray treat women that soft. Jesus mama, your future daughter-in-law has been taken by someone else, I'm jealous. But somehow in my heart I cheered happily seeing both of them"

....

After returning home from the show, Ray takes Xena to his mansion. They enjoyed the afternoon with horse riding and picnics both there.

"Honey, I'm so happy today" said Ray, who was lying on Xena's thigh and grabbed Xena's hand and kissed her several times.

"Hmm, why do you look so happy?" ask Xena

"Of course because I can spend all day with you, showing everyone that you're just mine. And tomorrow our family will determine when our engagement day will be. I can't wait for that" Ray said

"About what?" ask Ray

"About my secret" said Xena.

Ray got up and sat down while looking seriously at his lover who was breathing deeply.

"If it's heavy, don't tell me" said Ray stroking Xena's face

"No, you have to know everything about me before we go any further in our relationship" Xena said, nodding.

"Do you believe in reincarnation?" xena asked, Ray frowned when he heard that.

"I don't believe it, but if you believe in it I believe it too. Because I trust you completely" Ray said

"There was actually an impossible but real event happening to me. I experienced reincarnation, I went back 4 years. Do you believe that?" said Xena

Ray looked silent and digested everything, then Xena heard laughing.

"You don't believe it, do you?" said Xena

"I believe you said it" Ray said

"I'm serious Ray, what I'm saying is that it's all true, because I've experienced it" Xena said

Ray hugged his lover gently he kissed Xena on the forehead.

"I believe, keep telling it, I'll listen to it" Ray said

"In my past life, I still love Vano and even married her for two years. But during those two years, I was tormented inwardly and also often got slaps. Even at the end of my life, I was hit, kicked and shot until I died. After I caught him having sex with Yani" Xena began sobbing. Ray hugged Xena even tighter, giving her strength.

"You know why Vano did that?" ask Xena

"Why?" ask Ray

"That's because he accused me of killing Olive. Olive died in a riot of per*osa and was killed in a vicious manner. He wants to avenge olive's death to me by hurting my mind and my physical body which leads to death. The one who killed Olive and scapegoated me was Yani. The last time I saw Vano knowing that and regretting what he did to me" Xena said

"After I died, I was reborn exactly a year before Olive's death" Xena said.

"Do you still love her?" ask Vano

"No, that feeling's been buried since I died in life. So I gave up on her, and then you came and changed my life story" Xena said

"What do you think of my story?" ask Xena.

"No, I don't care if in the past you loved someone else. What matters is your feelings at this moment. But my class won't let you glance at anyone other than me" Ray said

"Aren't you angry about telling me this? "asked

"Why should I be angry? What matters is that you are now my milk. And I won't let anyone take you away from me even if it's your past" Ray said.

"Thank you for accepting me for who I am" Xena said

"I want to thank you in another way" Ray said.

Xena's face flushed red, she boldly kissed Ray's lips briefly. But Ray certainly will not let go easily.

Both were washed away in romance and fresh air in the afternoon that hit both of their faces, as if to be a companion to the story of the two.
