Aditama frowned when she did not see her daughter-in-law down there, she looked at Reynold's bead and caught something odd in it. "Rey, Laura where's my son? Why not take her down to see your sister?"
Reynold suddenly flinch, he is confused what to answer. He never lied to his father. What's he supposed to say?
"Laura slept Well, the therapy was exhausting her."
Again Reynold was forced to say that to cover up the reality that happened actually. She did not want Elkan to misunderstand, let alone Yuna who was already heartened to accept her husband's ex-lover to be her brother-in-law.
"Look first, who knows Laura is awake." tell Aditama while hinting at a blink of an eye.
"Yes Well," nodded Reynold, then left them all down there.
Reynold was completely confused at the thought of this situation. On the one hand he must think about his wife's feelings, on the other hand he must also weigh the feelings of Yuna who is none other than her sister.
Reynolds had to enter the room despite a dilemma. Let's just hope Laura really sleeps up to this reason it could be a weapon for her to trick everyone.
Having just set foot inside the room, Reynold had to hold his breath when he found Laura still wearing a towel on her body.
"Why aren't the clothes fitted?" reynold asked as he closed the door quietly.
Laura was flabbergasted when she heard Reynold's voice, then put on her clothes in a hurry. This made Reynold frown as if he were a stranger in Laura's eyes.
"Why did he get to see me?" reynold asked with an incomprehensible look, then walked towards the sofa.
"It's okay, I'm just shocked." Laura replied with a paled face.
"Shocked or unwilling when I look at your body? It seems like I have no meaning at all in your eyes. Do you regret living with me?"
Reynold finally realized that he meant nothing to his wife. Was Elkan so precious in Laura's eyes that she didn't think about her husband's feelings at all?
"What the hell is Mas?" Laura knitted her brows.
"Nothing, maybe my feelings are too sensitive." Reynold bent his legs at the end of the sofa, then inhaled as much air as he could.
"Dad asked me to take you downstairs, and that's if you don't mind. If staying in the room is okay too, I won't force you to meet them." Reynold added with a sad look.
"I'm in the room, just tell them I'm sleeping!" laura answered with comfort.
"No problem, maybe it should be. Love is difficult to understand, how hard we try if the name of love is still love. Otherwise yes no," Reynold turned his gaze away and rubbed his face violently.
Laura again knitted her brows. "What do you mean?"
"Nothing" Reynold replied lightly.
"Yes..."
"No need to talk anymore, just leave it like this!" Reynold chose to get up from his seat and stared intimately at Laura. "It doesn't matter if you don't want to live with me, but please don't expect Elkan anymore! She was happy with my sister, they both loved each other. It's been enough for Yuna to suffer all this time, I won't let anyone else snatch her happiness." pressed Reynold with a sharp gaze like a hawk's eye.
Reynold smiled wryly and walked towards the door, at once his steps came to a halt and immediately turned around. "Oh yeah, I'll be in charge until your feet heal. After that I'll let you go, I can't live in someone else's shadow. We better end this marriage before you suffer with me!"
"Mas... What the hell are you saying? Please think before you speak!" Laura raised her voice.
"Just calm down, I've thought about it carefully. Just prepare yourself!" Reynold continued his steps until he disappeared from Laura's sight.
"Mas.." cried Laura, unfortunately inaudible to Reynold who had arrived at the end of the stairs.
"Oh my God, what demon possessed you so you could talk to me like that. I don't love Elkan anymore, I'm just not ready to meet him and his wife. I'm afraid, however, that I've done your sister a bitch." Laura said with teary eyes.
Laura felt guilty for making Yuna wretch unintentionally. If only he had not come to see Elkan, of course the accident would have never happened.
He was the one who was supposed to be responsible for the accident, it all happened because of him.
Down there, Reynold rejoins Aditama and the others. He had to lie to cover up his wife's attitude.
"Where's Laura Rey?" yuna asked who did not see her sister-in-law at all.
"Still asleep, just let him rest first!" answer Reynold.
"Well, now we better eat first! The conversation will continue!" invite Aditama who deliberately distracts everyone, especially Reynold who clearly looks upset. Aditama can read his face water.
"Minah, is dinner ready?" reynold asked as he looked towards the dining table.
"Have you sir, please!" sahut Minah while bowing her back.
"Get it down, Yuna, Beno, Reni, come on, kid!" take Aditama while getting up from his seat and walk first to the dining table.
"Mrs, let me take care of the twins. The lady ate first," Minah walked up to the sofa and sat down next to Elga and Edgar who were playing on it.
"Thank you, Ma'am," said Yuna with full gentleness.
Minah carved a sweet smile on her lips, Yuna also returned it with a smile that was no less sweet.
After everyone sat down at the dinner table, Aditama opened the family dinner with a smile full of happiness. Yuna scoops the rice onto her plate and gets a side dish for her, then fills Elkan's plate with the same rice and side dishes. Reni did the same for her husband Beno.
Seeing the movements of Yuna and Reni who were so attentive to their husbands, Reynold's facial water suddenly changed. There was a feeling of joy mixed with envy in his heart, he realized the fate of his love was different from theirs.
Reynold does not ask for more over his relationship with Laura, he just wants to be appreciated as a husband even though his marriage is not desired by his own wife.
If only Reynold could have chosen, he wouldn't have wanted to marry Laura this way. But everything happened, Reynolds couldn't do anything. All the faults that have brought Laura into this unclear relationship.
If only that night he could control himself, he wouldn't have possibly ruined the girl's future. But the rice was already porridge, bad taste Reynold was forced to swallow it. Now that she was completely stuck with her own feelings, she could not even end this marriage. What's he supposed to do?
Seriate...
