You Make Me Crazy
Ch. 78

Riko's words are so striking increasingly corner Dara. The thing he had betrayed Riko was indisputable. He who is still planless, not firm in making decisions. His nature of that one now even leads him to increasingly strange problems.

There would be no way he could persuade Riko to cancel their marriage.

It was too sudden for her to plan her parents. But what can he do? Even when Riko asked permission for him to the Dean he could not do anything.

Dean permits. Of course with certain reasons that Riko made. Until tomorrow, until their scheduled departure, he still did not know what to do.

He can speak only a thousand languages. But the heart screams bitterly. Hope Kai manages to meet and convince his parents. If they want to cancel their ridiculous plans. Which of course will drag the princess into a prolonged pit of suffering.

In another city.

Painstakingly, with unanimous determination, he mustered up the courage to meet Dara's parents. But the result was not what he expected. It was beyond expectations.

Dara and Riko's wedding preparations have been completed. Just waiting for the arrival of the two brides. All of it has been prepared by the family of the prospective groom.

Dara's parents couldn't do much either. They already agreed. They also do not want the reputation and good name of the family at stake.

"It's too late" said Papa Yuda when Kai came to see him.

Kai wasn't even welcome to enter the house. He was just standing at the door of the house that was wide open with Papa Yuda standing in the doorway of the house.

"Wedding tomorrow. Dara is arriving soon. Sorry, I can't do anything. The entire wedding preparations had been prepared by the groom's family. So we can't do anything" Papa Yuda said with a flat face. There was no expression of regret on that face. If there was any regret, he regretted letting his daughter hang out with a guy like Kai.

"But, Om. Can you see Dara suffering? Dara won't be happy with the marriage, Om. And again, Dara and I have Ken. What Om could Ken grow up with the affection of others, while I as his biological father still exist. And still able to give him that abundant affection."

"Once again sorry. I can't risk my family's reputation and good name. Not only that, my relationship with Dr. Rudi will also be affected."

"Please consider again. I beg you very much. Please help me, Om. I want to marry Dara. We still love each other. Dara and I are back together. So, please bless us."

It is true what Dara said. Papa Yuda is hard to conquer. No matter how much Kai tried to reclaim the middle-aged man's day, it still did not pay off.

Papa Yuda still insisted on maintaining the good name of his family and kinship with Doctor Rudi, Riko's father.

A thousand kinds of reasons Kai gave, even a little can not affect his thinking. Can't even change his decision.

As a result, Kai was left standing in front of the door of the house that closed. While Papa Yuda had locked himself in his room. No matter what, Kai is still waiting for his humility to change his decision for the future of his daughter and granddaughter.

Not wanting to give up so easily, let this time be a little impolite. He knocked repeatedly on the door of the house. He repeatedly pressed the doorbell of the house. Hope the occupants of the house are a little compassionate towards him. For what he is fighting for now is the future of their daughter.

"Om, Auntie, please listen to me first!" yang Kai asked. Keep knocking on the door of the house.

Mama Maya who was disturbed by the sound of repeated knocking of the door and the deafening sound of the doorbell, intended to open the door. But his steps stopped because Papa Yuda prevented him.

Papa Yuda poked his head from behind the door of his room.

"Well, don't open the door. Just leave him there like crazy" said Papa Yuda.

"But, Pah. This is so noisy. Mama just wanted to tell him to come home."

"Udah, no need. Let it. Later Papa asked Mr. RT to send him out of here. Come on Mah, come in. Don't mind the kid."

"Udah, no need. Let it. Do you want our relationship with Doctor Rudi's family to deteriorate? Mama forgot Doctor Rudi meritorious to Papa when Dara harmed the Arsenio family? No, don't care about him." It's hard to conquer this father.

"But, Pah. What if he sues us for the accident that befell his family."

"Not going to happen. It's already passed."

"But..."

"There's no buts no more. Comein. Mama wants the wedding to be canceled?" he said in a half-threatening tone.

Mama Maya finally could only leave. According to her husband's orders, go into the room. And don't care about Kai who's still knocking on his door.

After nearly an hour of waiting for mercy from the residents of the house, someone finally came to meet Kai. Not the people of the house, but the neighbors.

"I'm sorry, son. I'm RT in this neighborhood. I'm only asked by Mr. Yuda to tell you that your arrival is very disturbing to the residents of the house. So I as RT here, plead with the utmost for you to leave this place immediately," said Mr. RT in a polite but firm language.

Kai didn't want to add to the problem. That's why he can only stop. According to the orders of RT.

"alright. Please say my apologies to him. Tell them too, that I will come back again until they change their decision." Kai is still not willing to give up before the yellow janur curls tomorrow. He believes and believes, effort will not betray results. The jargon that was often buzzed by many people hoped it would happen to him as well.

Kai decides to go back to his house while thinking about how to prevent the wedding of Dara and Riko tomorrow. Although it is no longer possible.

"I don't know if I'm right or wrong. But this is all I can do. As a man, I realized I shouldn't do this kind of shameful thing. But, how else. Because only you can cancel the wedding," said Kai at the time. When he met Riko at the hospital where he worked. Before he left for the airport some time ago.

"Do you want me to risk my family's good name? You don't know who my family is. Sorry, I can't," Riko replied flatly.

"Come, buddy. You know, Dara doesn't love you. Do you want to make your life suffer? You know what it's like to be with someone who doesn't love you. Do you have the heart to put Dara in that position?"

"Love is a second business. Love can grow over time because of togetherness. I believe that one day Dara could love me and accept me as her husband."

Kai chuckled while shaking his head.

"Wouldn't five years prove Dara's feelings for you? Come on, don't be a hypocrite. Don't lie to yourself. Dara doesn't love you. I wouldn't ban Ken if he wanted to see you. Can't you let go of Dara for her happiness? If you're sincere, our relationship can become friends."

Riko fell silent. He gave no more response than the silence of a thousand languages. No more responding to Kai's every word.

Kai let out a deep breath as he recalled his chatter with Riko. How else, he was forced to meet Riko at that time before leaving for the airport. Because only Riko can cancel the wedding. Even though the real good name of the Riko family will be at stake.

But that's the only way. If Riko insists on marrying Dara, then what else can she do?

Should he make a fuss at the wedding?

Or did he just meet Riko's family?

Is that how he is at the moment?

Whatever he does for love.
