AFTER THE DIVORCE

Season 2 Episode 14: Ben Crash

“If I ask you to wait for me, do you want?”

Chapter 14: Ben Crash

Kaiya had just slammed her body into a mattress where she was also still wearing work clothes, when the new number became the caller on her phone.

“Who?” he thought he was hesitant to answer. However, so far only important people know the number. Moreover, after the call ended without him answering, shortly after, he also got a WhatsApp message from the number.

Kai, this is Aunt Shena. If you may know, Ben still calls you often, right? This week, Ben hasn't been home. He also did not give any news even though his number was still active. If you can, please, yes, help Auntie to get Ben's news. Aunty does not know who to ask for help, while during this time, Ben spends more time with you.

Kaina was confused. “Ben? What else would the man do after a week of disappearing? Even he had a promise to accompany me to come to the wedding of Rara and Kimo, but in fact nil!” frangipani.

Kaiya has already been disappointed with Ben and Gio. Aside from both no one coming to Rara and Kimo's wedding, the two people also have flaws that Kai cannot accept.

About Ben who is so obsessed with business and will justify all means including utilizing Kaiya and not hesitate to oppress. Also, Gio the man worried about the certainty that more often disappeared. With a man like them, Kaiya was sure her future would be bleak.

At least, even though no man can love perfectly like Yuan to Keinya, at least Kai must get a man like Kimo who is firm and takes risks. Especially for Kaiya, if he could, he only wanted to get married once in his lifetime. So, finding a husband should not be arbitrary.

Without thinking about the message from Shena which he believes is only part of Ben's trap, Kainya decides to sleep with her body gradually curled up on her back.

Not long ago closed, Kai's phone rang again and made Kaiya feel depressed. Work in the office alone has drained his energy as well as his brain, so he does not want to make himself more stressed by taking care of things that have nothing to do with him.

In order to reduce his depression, Kainya chose to take a bath and deliberately soak in the tub. Although when he came out an hour later, he was shocked when he confirmed his cell phone notification. In one of the WhatsApp messages there that came from Ben, there was a photo of the man lying face down with the man's head covered in blood and leaning on the steering wheel.

“This is real, or a trap?” kainya thought doubtful. On what basis, Ben sent him a photo of being like that? Doesn't that require someone else to take a picture? In other words, Ben is still trapping her, right? But if you see Ben's car whose front windshield following the door also broke, the possibility of the situation is true, also remains. Ben, really an accident?

Shortly thereafter, there was a WhatsApp message sent by Ben.

Kainya ma'am, this is Doni, Mr. Ben's secretary. I just want to inform you, Mr. Ben's current condition. Because for the last three months, Mr. Ben always advised me, to immediately contact Kaiya Mother if something happens to Mr. Ben.

Kaiya feel bored faced with Ben. “Why should you contact me? On what basis, whereas I have nothing to do with him!” gerutu. But suddenly, he changed his mind, “but pitying thought as well. No dear, sad Aunt Shena, let alone Ben single child and ...”.

Kaiya who had been silent, had no choice but to contact Ben. He deliberately called Ben and asked the man to Doni who answered him, directly.

***

“This wasn't an accident, Ms. Kai. If this was an accident, where could Mr. Ben leave a will, right?” the words of Doni continue to echo in the mind of Kainya who this time awake in front of the ER with both parents.

Inside the ER room, Ben was struggling. While on the way to the hospital, Kainya had contacted Shena about the accident that hit Ben. And as for Doni, a car with Ben is also injured, but not as bad as Ben, the man is also awake with Kaiya.

Ben's injury may be severe. Kaiya thought so because in addition to taking a long time to handle it in the ER, Shena collapsed after getting an explanation from the doctor about Ben's condition.

The sight confused Kaiya. He looked at Philips and Khatrin who were still accompanying him. They sit in waiting chairs. Meanwhile, shortly after fainting, Shena also immediately received treatment, especially the woman's condition was also worrisome. Perhaps because of too much concern for Ben's health, Shena forgot about his health, to the point that, the woman was affected by typhoid. What do they ask, where did the figure of Oskar go? Why did Shena just come alone?

“Mi, Pi ..?” call Kaiya while staring at the faces of her parents alternately.

Khatrin and Philips reflexively stared at Kai. They found their daughter clearly frightened and depressed.

“Mi, Pi, According to Doni, Ben was not in an accident, because before this, Ben had already written a will?”

Although Khatrin and Philips became silent about Kunya's confession, but both asked Kainya not to think too much about it. Moreover, they also do not have a specific relationship. Especially so far, as they know, Kaiya hates Ben a lot.

“If there is no business, we better go home?” proposal Philips.

Khatrin nodded in agreement. But Kaiya looks doubtful.

“But Aunt Shena same Ben pity, Mi, Pi .. moreover from earlier, I also did not see Om Oskar?” kaiya.

Khatrin and Philips compact silent. After all, what Kai said was true. Not to mention, why did secretary Ben, just give Ben's stuff to Kaiya?

“Pak Ben said, I have to give the phone to Kaiya's mother. As for all of Mr. Ben's belongings including a personal mobile phone in the car, a few minutes ago it was seized by the police for further investigation,” said Doni who then left.

Now it's almost eleven o'clock in the evening, it's worth Doni to go home. As for the split of the man, Kaiya and her parents stared confusedly at the mobile phone given to Kai.

Feeling something awkward, Philips intervened. He took over his phone and turned it on. When all the process has been passed, the view of Kai photos that become wallpaper there is enough to make Kaiya nervous.

“Why should my photo? Try, Pi. I think it's quite personal,” said Kai who then took over his phone.

The shirt was silent for a moment. Confused about what to do. “I mean Ben give me what phone, anyway?” kaiya.

Seeing Kaiya who was only dumbstruck staring at the screen of the phone that gradually dimmed, Philips pressed the gallery button on the screen. Shortly after, a row of photos of Kaina plastered there. It can be ascertained that Kaiya is not Keinya when viewed from the way of clothing and makeup.

“Ben freak!” his Tad grouse chose to press the key button until his phone became dim.

Alongside Kaiya, Philippa and Khatrin compactly coded eyes about Kaiya's photos in Ben's mobile phone.

“Actually what does Ben mean to send me a phone that actually contains my personal photo collection?!” kaiya wondered in her heart.

Kai became nervous. “A-on what basis?”

“Your cheeks are flushed,” reprimand Philips.

“P-whale! On what basis did Papi even taunt me? Just because of this phone? If so, it is not reasonable!” kaiya firmly with enough shouting. “Ya already, then, let's go home!” he got up from his seat.

Khatrin and Philips compactly coded eyes then stared at Kaiya's astonishment. Kai has stepped up to leave them. Their daughter was clearly offended but also felt the prestige to admit when in fact, Kaiya was immediately touched by Ben's cellphone. All this continued throughout their journey home. Because Kaiya, who was sitting in the passenger seat with Khatrin, kept quiet with sharp eyes that continued to be a sight on his face that also became sullen.

When Kainya just entered and closed the door of her room, she became enthusiastic and searched Ben's cell phone.

“There must be a reason why Ben gave this to me! Not only wills and accidents that befall, but why Ben to collect my photo! Hold on, there's video or voice recording, isn't there?”

Kaiya made the video menu in the gallery as his goal. Right, there are three videos there and Ben appears as the cover. Kai deliberately chose the video with the longest date. The video was recorded about three months ago.

In the first seconds, Ben just bowed silently. Sometimes glancing, sometimes looking down.The video was taken in the car like behind the wheel.

“Ni what kind of a dewormer? How not to say!” kaiya Cibir. Lucky, in the 47th second the video was played, Ben cleared his throat.

“Have you hated me more? I'm sure it is. Thank goodness ...” Ben's eyes became teary.

His kai frowned. “What does Ben mean to say like that?” Surprisingly, the video is over.

So, Kaiya who did not want to die curious immediately played the next video. The video was recorded 9 days ago. This time Vidio was also taken in the car. The atmosphere is still the same. It was dark enough with no other sound

“You haven't noticed it yet? Didn't you already say, that it could be due to getting used to it?” ben said at the beginning of the video. Kainya remembers, it was on the date when they met Piera, and she briefly reprimanded Ben.

“Ben, accustomed to pretending can make us really can without pretending.” Maybe those words are what Ben meant.

“Before you say that, I have also noticed it. And because of that, I was busy bothering you. Like there's less if I don't see you for a day. Even if our meeting is only for quarrels and prejudices that you keep thinking of me.” Ben gradually lowered. “But I'm sure, you have a hard time believing this, because all this time, all you know, I just wanted to toy with even bullying you,” he added shortly after returning to staring at the camera.

Ben's face was full of sadness. “I didn't mean to hurt you. But in the future I will get used to not continue to bother you.”

This time Ben suddenly smiled even though his eyes were already glazed over. “Do not worry. I don't mean to run away from responsibility. Because a few minutes ago, I just met Gio and told him you still love him.”

Ben was silent for a moment. He threw a sideways glance and then sighed. This time it looks to withstand incredible tightness. “Sorry, yes. Because I also can't keep my last promise, accompanying you to Rara and Kimo's wedding. Yes ... although I know you're happier without me. But anyway, I feel like I owe you because I promised.”

“Actually Ben why? Is he setting me up? But why did she cry?”

After a moment of silence, Kainya gradually played the other video. The atmosphere in this video is different. In a workspace that is fairly magnificent and Kaiya believed to be Ben's workspace. The video was recorded yesterday.

“If I ask you to wait for me, do you want?” ben said seriously and hoped. Then he nodded while biting his lower lip. “One week no see, don't you miss me?”

“Tell me, what can make you believe, that I really love you?”

“I'm serious, Kai .. after this, if you've seen this video and are willing to give me a chance, please contact me.”

“You know, the past week, I've been feeling really depressed. That woman named Piera .. she changed everything. If something happens to me, you meet him for me?”

What makes Kaiya confused, why Ben to discuss Piera in the video? And, does Ben really love her? But, why did Kaiya not feel a different feeling after knowing the reality?

***

Rara was struggling in front of her laptop, while next to her, Kimo was also doing something similar, when someone pressed the bell of her apartment.

Kimo and Rara reflexes went silent then glanced at each other.

“You have an appointment with people?” ask Kimo.

Rara immediately shook her head.

“Yes, Athan is coming again? It's been a week, right? But Athan's time is still coming, don't know yourself? It's night, you know. Eleven o'clock at night, tuh!” Kimo.

“Don't-don't, your family? Your mom or Kimi?” guess Rara.

“Ya already, let me see.” Kimo hurried to leave his busy life. He stepped lazily towards the door.

When Kimo made sure on CCTV next to the door, out there, Piera who was in a mess following his soaked body, without the usual aide, waited in fear while looking down, and then, both of his hands were tightly clenched to the body.

The situation confirms that Piera is not in good condition. Instead, Piera was impressed very depressed.

Finding Kimo just silently observing CCTV next to the door, Rara who followed became curious. But when he confirmed it himself, he became gasped even reflexively retreated amid his gaze that stared in disbelief at a figure within the CCTV.

Piera, what did she mean by coming at night, and even in such a miserable state? Piera looks so frightened and often looks around like deliberately watching, apart from Piera himself who often presses the bell-impressed impatient.
