The statement managed to make Zayden instantly dumbfounded, also the same as Rena who immediately looked at Nio and was stunned by it.
"Ka, are you really serious about that?" Ask Rena again.
Nio did not answer Rena, all he did was wipe the hand of Rena who was at that time he was holding, and looked back at Zayden.
"You know so far I've never been attracted to any woman again, it's because I still keep that taste to your sister. And now that I really don't want to lose Rena anymore, I want to marry her, please bless us!" Reveal Nio straightforwardly without hesitation.
"But how could you think of marrying your own stepmother?!!"
"She's no longer my stepmother!" Answer Nio.
"But he's still your real papa's ex-wife!"
"No!" Answer Nio.
"What does that mean by no?" Ask Zayden again who doesn't seem to understand.
"Actually, he's not my real parents, but my uncle!" Clearly Nio with lips that seemed a little quivering when he said that.
Obviously, because honestly Nio still felt very sick when he remembered that.
"What??" Zayden was once again flabbergasted when he heard Nio's confession.
"Yes, the man I've been calling papa isn't my real father." Said Nio who immediately began to lower his head with eyes that began to glaze over.
Rena who witnessed it also suddenly felt sad when she saw Nio who still seemed very sad when she returned to discussing the problem.
"It's enough Zay!! You shouldn't be overdoing it like this on her!" Resolute Rena who looks unhappy with her brother.
"Hey, I did because you're my only sister. Obviously I don't want anything bad to happen to you!"
"Yes, you are my only brother! But where have you been all this time? Do you want to know about me all this time? Do you know how I live my life by myself? Where were you when I was alone and down, where were you Zay? Do you want to know? Do you care?" Ketus Rena who suddenly rose from her seat and continued to look at Zayden with eyes that seemed to be burning flames of anger.
Zayden was immediately silent and as if not struggling to make a raging Rena as if more sad than her tantrums.
"Rena, please calm yourself, don't be like that." Nio said that again drew Rena's hand.
"No, let it go! Let him know and understand that he hasn't been a good brother to me!" Answer Rena who just kept shining sharply towards Zayden.
Zayden's guts suddenly shrank when Rena had discussed the past, the time where Zayden disappeared like swallowed by the earth and indeed there was no news anymore.
"Here you go, let's sit down again, I don't want you to be emotionally involved." Said Nio who continued to pull Rena's hand to make her sit back.
"Do you really love Antonio?" Zayden asked then in a voice that started to soften a little.
"I love her! If you wish that a man would come to me and make me feel like a queen, then he is the one!! Because he was the only guy who made me feel united while I was alive, even my father and older brother, never did!" Revealing Rena again that expression certainly makes Zayden feel more guilty to him.
"Hmm well then," Zayden began to lower his head in an increasingly quiet voice,
"Retell when you want to get married." Added later.
Hearing that back made Nio instantly look at him with a slight astonishment.
"Does that mean you're blessing us?"
"Is my blessing important to you?"
"Of course, you're his older brother, that means you're his current guardian."
"I have no power to hold two people who love each other to marry. Get married, get married immediately!" Answer Zayden.
Nio finally smiled, he immediately got up and immediately hugged Zayden just like that without caring if Zayden had made the tip of his lips break.
"Thank you Zayden, thank you so much!"
"Please take care of him!" Zayden said slowly.
"Sure!"
"And sorry, sorry for your broken lips!" Zayden said shortly after they released their body link.
"It's ok, I'd do the same thing if I were in your position."
Zayden was finally able to smile and glanced back at Rena.
"Hey you, why are you still sitting there? Comehere!" Call Zayden.
"Last I left you, you were immature, but now, you're even more so than me when you're angry." Chirp Zayden as they intertwine.
"I'm sorry Na, please forgive me for not being able to protect you, I'm so sorry."
"Yes, I'm sorry that I was too emotional."
"Yes, that means if you really love Nio, you want to protect her from my tantrums right?"
Rena was smiling too.
The next day...
That morning, there was not the slightest look of Nio's figure on the sofa, where he used to sleep, Nio seemed to disappear without news to make Rena confused.
"Where'd he go?" Rena asked herself when she had confirmed that Nio was really not in the apartment.
"Good morning." Sapa Meichan, who of course at that time preferred to sleep in the apartment with Zayden rather than in the hotel they had rented for their previous wedding.
"Hi, morning brother." Answer Rena who seemed a little snapped.
"You look like you're confused, what's wrong?" Meicha asked as she began to sit quietly on the sofa.
"Owh ti, no hehe." Rena could only smile clumsily.
"Oh yeah, did anyone see Nio? You know, ever since I woke up, I haven't seen her at all." Ask Rena to Meichan.
"Nio??! Hmm I also just woke up, so of course I didn't see it."
"Owh, so yes."
"Hmm maybe he was jogging below, as I see below there is a park that is commonly used by people jogging, especially during weekends like this."
"Owh, it might be true." Rena finally said.
Zayden was seen coming out of his room.
"Beib, haven't you been up since, do you know where Nio is going?" Meichan asked as soon as she saw her husband coming out of the room.
"Young?!! I don't know, maybe he's going around or looking for souvenirs, considering tomorrow he's coming home." Zayden replied calmly as he continued to step into the kitchen to fetch some drinking water.
Hearing that, immediately made Rena become silent.
"If he's really going around, then why not take me? Even he didn't tell me at all if he wanted to go out." Rena murmured in a heart that felt a little upset.
*Tictock*
The hour hand continues to spin non-stop, not felt now the time has shown at 10.41 am before noon. But strangely Nio still did not return, even his cellphone could not be contacted at all to make Rena more restless and anxious.
"Where is he???" Mumbled Rena who continued to bite her nails on her thumb while continuing to walk back and forth on the balcony in her room.
But as if the beloved shoots had arrived, suddenly Rena's phone rang and displayed the name of the idol on her screen.
"This is it!" Rena quickly answered the phone call.
"Where have you been? Why didn't you tell me when I left?" Rena asked as she welcomed the voice call.
"Once, then be angry. Have you taken a shower?" Ask Nio.
"Why ask at a time like this."
"Prepare, and meet me at a restaurant." Say Nio then.
"Huh?! Restaurant??"
"Yes, I will share the location, not too far from the apartment,"
"Ka, are you going to the restaurant? Since then?"
"Yes hehehe."
"Well, send me the address now, I'll be there!"
"I'll wait."
...Seriate......
