After the Farewell

After the Farewell
Bonchap - Ren's Ideals



Jake looked at the Caucasian man whose face resembled Rayden with a pushy look.


"When did Oom Jake fall in love with Ren?" search Riku. To be honest, if Jake isn't really an old man, he'd be safer handing his brother over to Jake knowing that in the man's hands, Ren is safe.


"Maybe since childhood but growing up, Oom loved Ren more and more." Jake ignored Rayden's plot.


"Dad, I'm going with Oom Jake. Let me have a chat together because if Daddy's advancing, it's the lips and hands working in sync." Riku rubbed his father's shoulder.


"What do you mean Rik?" Rayden squinted his gray eyes.


"Daddy's mouth must have been mumbling at length times the width plus the hands of jotos Oom Jake. Ngunu you Dad. Mudeng kamsudku?" Riku started wearing his helmet.


"I mean Rik, not kamsud!" errata Rayden.


"Yes that" Riku replied with a sinking sound from behind the helmet.


Rayden took a long breath. "Be careful. Jake, put Riku on." Although Rayden is upset, he can't help but ask Jake to look after his son.


"It wasn't always me looking after your son, Ray." Jake runs to his bike and puts on his helmet and, along with Riku, they exit Takahashi's courtyard.

Inside the house, Abe and Kara are seen staring at Ren who is still in a confused fashion over last night's events. Abe himself does not understand how the assistant he recruited fell in love with his own grandson.


"Ren.." call Kara softly while rubbing her daughter's back.


"Yes mom." replied Ren.


"Are you okay?" ask Kara slowly. He was very confused to see his daughter like this.


"The truth... No, mom." Ren took a long breath. He knew Jake was coming but he didn't want to see him.


"How are you feeling?" ask Abe.


"Princess" call Rayden to his daughter.


"Daddy" Ren hugged Rayden tightly. He really feels confused. Why did they come at the same time?!


"Do you have the same feeling as any of them?" ask Rayden.


Ren shakes. "Ren doesn't want to get married."


The three old men there were shocked by the girl's words.


"Darling, are you sure?" ask Kara because she just found out that her daughter has no desire to get married.


"Yes mom. You see, I want to pursue a career as a diplomat and if married can make me not concentrate on my career." Ren looked at his family. "And Ren wants the men to leave Ren first."


Rayden surprised. "Why princess?"


"Ren will soon take care of the thesis and Ren does not want any interference because Ren has applied for an internship at the British embassy as Ren's thesis material." The smiling girl looked at her Daddy.


"You're next month's semester seven and the thesis's left now. Well then, Daddy's banning everyone from meeting you, including Jake!" break Rayden.


"Why not go to the Japanese embassy alone Ren, can Opa help you get in there" Abe bargained.


"No, Opa. It's the result of Ren's own efforts to get in there and Ren is proud of it."


Abe nodded and in his heart he was very proud of his only granddaughter.

Jake and Riku are now at a cafe and sipping black coffee and enjoying a croissant for breakfast.


"So, Oom Jake. Are you serious? Marriage to Ren?" ask Riku curiously.



Jake looked at the twin Ren nodded.


"You've got to be kidding me, Oom. Daddy's reaction was like that" rancid Riku.


"Oom also does not know why you can fall in love with your twin, Rik. For Oom, Ren is a complete package" Jake said as he sipped his coffee.


"Let Ren choose, Rik."


"Originally Oom knew, Ren was married!" Riku looked seriously at Jake which made the mature man surprised.


"Seriously Rik?" jake asked in disbelief.


Riku nodded. "We are twins though not identical and Ren has revealed that several times. Even Ren planned that after graduation, he would seriously continue his education to become a diplomat. Hence Ren speeding up his lecture because after graduation, he will enroll in the school of the Foreign Service or Sekdilu. If he had, he would have taken the Madya or Sesdilu Level Foreign Service School."


Jake gawks at Riku's explanation. "Seriously he's going to be like that?"


Riku nodded. "So Oom, save Riku, bury Oom's feelings deeply because Ren would prefer a career over romance. The ideals he really wants to cross the world are paid for by the country" said Riku.


Jake was silent. It means waiting for him for another five years.

Hyung-woon comes to Takahashi's residence and meets Ren just speechless listening to the girl's explanation. Ren is really serious about his ideals and asks that Hyung-woon look for another girl who doesn't think of a career like her.


"Are you sure, Ren? Sure of your wishes?" hyung-woon asked who was honestly heartbroken to hear the girl's words.


"And I told you that I didn't have any intention of getting married because I focused on what I wanted from childhood." Ren looked at the Korean man.


Hyung-woon let out a long breath. "Maybe now you can't accept Ren, but I'm sure we're a match."


"If it is so, even though various kinds of turns and climbs are blocked, the name of the soul mate will definitely be reunited" said Ren softly.


Hyung-woon just nodded.

Five years Later...


A beautiful blonde-haired girl walked out of the British Embassy with a casual step. The business here is done and he's going back to his apartment.



When he was about to get into his mini Cooper, suddenly a man hit him with a lot of files.


"I'm so sorry miss, I was in a hurry" the man apologized and the girl smiled while helping to clear the file.


"It's okay. I also did not see because I was looking for my car keys" he smiled.


"What are you?" ask the man.


"blends. Why?"


"You're beautiful" the guy. The girl in the brown coat laughed.


"No, not in Washington, not in Jakarta, I met a guy mombal mukiyo tho yaaa" he muttered in Indonesian


"You're Indonesian?" ask the man.


"Yes, my mommy is Indonesian."


"Marcelo Romano's. The Italian embassy." The man extended his hand.



"Ratimaya Ren Takahashi's. The Indonesian Embassy." Ren welcomed the man's hand.


"Nice to meet you, Ren."
